During interviews for The Force Awakens in 2015, Harrison Ford was asked by Collider (see the video below, with the lightsaber question around the 2:10 mark) what color lightsaber he would choose.
Leonardo DiCaprio has had a long and successful career in film, and as he approaches four decades in the industry, it’s interesting to look back at the movies that defined him. While his early work in the ’90s launched his career, it often gets overshadowed by his more recent, impactful roles over the last 25 years. However, some of his most compelling performances actually came in those early films. What’s Eating Gilbert Grape is a standout example, showcasing a unique performance from DiCaprio, supported by a talented cast and a deeply moving story. It’s a film that remains worth watching again and again.
As a total cinema fan, I’ve been following Nobody Wants This, and let me tell you, this season is all about Joanne and Noah trying to figure things out. They’re constantly wrestling with big questions, looking for answers anywhere they can – from their gut feelings to what feels like divine intervention, and even questionable advice from a therapist who definitely bends the rules. Honestly, it’s amazing they manage to make any decisions – these two are a mess! So, I thought it would be fun to break down each episode and see how they stumble towards figuring out what they want, and maybe even decide for ourselves what we want (or don’t!) from the show.
The AMC series Dark Winds centers around Navajo Tribal police officers Joe Leaphorn, Jim Chee, and Bernadette Manuelito as they investigate compelling cases. The show has also been praised for its authentic portrayal of Navajo culture.
Ever since Epic Universe opened, it’s been incredibly popular, so Universal Orlando Resort has limited how people could visit with regular tickets. Before, a multi-day ticket only allowed access to Epic Universe on one of those days. But starting next year, that’s going to change significantly.
Yasutora Sado, often called Chad, is a classic shonen anime character with the potential to be a great hero, but he never quite gets the chance to shine. In the early parts of Bleach, he seemed just as strong as his friends, but his progress was constantly hindered. While characters like Renji Abarai were able to grow and become powerful allies to Ichigo, Chad unfortunately didn’t receive the same development or opportunities.
In the season finale of Nobody Wants This, Joanne (Kristen Bell) reveals to her friends that her boyfriend, Noah (Adam Brody), has asked her about converting to Judaism, and she’s considering it. However, she soon realizes that Noah can’t maintain his religious beliefs while also being with her if she doesn’t commit to conversion. During a tearful conversation at his niece’s bat mitzvah, she breaks up with him, believing it’s the least painful option. But in the final moments of the episode, they reconcile and kiss, with Noah admitting he can’t have both a relationship with her and stay true to his faith – and making it clear he chooses her.
Sony Pictures says the new movie, written and directed by Aaron Sorkin, will be thematically similar to his 2010 film, The Social Network (though David Fincher isn’t involved). While Jeremy Strong is playing a role similar to Mark Zuckerberg (previously played by Jesse Eisenberg), the story will focus on Frances Haugen, the whistleblower who leaked documents to The Wall Street Journal. These leaks revealed issues like the spread of anti-vaccine conspiracy theories, negative effects on young people, and Meta’s decision to shut down an internal project fighting misinformation. Haugen argued this inaction contributed to the January 6th Capitol attack, and the film will include a recreation of that event. A video from the set, showing actors portraying rioters at a building dressed to look like the Capitol (actually Vancouver’s Art Gallery), was briefly posted on X (formerly Twitter) by a fan account before being taken down. Photos from the scene have also surfaced on Reddit, with reports that paid actors were used for the reenactment.
After a 2018 court decision sided with a British newspaper that labeled him an abuser based on allegations from his ex-wife, Amber Heard, Johnny Depp faced a significant decline in film roles. Although he won a 2022 defamation trial against Heard – with the court finding both parties had defamed each other – he hasn’t yet appeared in a major studio film. However, Depp is gradually returning to acting, having recently finished filming the thriller Day Drinker with Penélope Cruz, scheduled for release in 2026. Whether A Christmas Carol will be considered part of his career resurgence remains to be seen.
In a behind-the-scenes look at the set of Sheriff Country, Diane Farr and Kevin Alejandro are filming in a new location. Farr will return as her character Sheron Leone in the second episode of the series, while Kevin Alejandro takes on the role of director. Here’s what makes this development so interesting.
