Following the success of The Rookie, which premiered in 2018 and has become a hugely popular police drama, a new spin-off called The Rookie: North is coming soon. Jay Ellis will star as the lead, playing another new police officer who joins the Pierce County Police Department after experiencing a home invasion. Viewers may recognize Ellis from his roles in Top Gun: Maverick, the series Insecure, and the film All Her Fault. Here’s a look at what The Rookie: North is about…

In the 1999 film The Phantom Menace, Jedi Master Yoda explained that there are always two Sith: a master and an apprentice. Originally, this idea was thought to be a rule created by the ancient Sith Lord Darth Bane to stop conflict within their ranks. However, recent information suggests that may not be the reason anymore.

Jay Ellis plays Alex Holland in The Rookie: North, which Deadline reports has received the order for a pilot that will be penned and directed by The Rookie showrunner Alexi Hawley. The reason for the delay is due to the actor’s extremely a busy schedule. He’s a series regular on Hulu’s upcoming Not Suitable For Work as well as recurring on Running Point, available streaming now with a Netflix subscription. The actor celebrated the big news on Instagram with this message:

While the new Superman in the DCU might not be as powerful as previous versions, he still showed off incredible strength in his first appearance in 2025. He managed impressive feats like holding up a giant monster’s foot, catching falling buildings, and even using his icy breath to escape a black hole with three other people.

Let me tell you, this special was a real treat for ‘Everybody Loves Raymond’ fans. They painstakingly rebuilt the Barone family living room and got almost everyone back together – Patricia Heaton, Brad Garrett, Monica Horan, and even the kids, Madylin and Sullivan! Ray Romano was very clear, though: a reboot just isn’t possible, and rightfully so. Losing Doris Roberts and Peter Boyle, who played his parents, and Sawyer, is too big a loss. He said they’d never do the show without those three family members, and I completely agree. Phil Rosenthal pointed out that with the show still airing in syndication, we can all enjoy it exactly as it was meant to be, and they both feel a deep respect for the show and its wonderful audience. It was a lovely tribute, and a smart decision to leave ‘Everybody Loves Raymond’ as a perfect memory.

Sadie Sink recently responded to rumors about her possibly playing Jean Grey in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, she said the speculation started before she even had discussions with Marvel. She was surprised when she first heard the rumors, and explained that talks with Marvel didn’t begin until she was already filming the fifth season of Stranger Things.

Netflix announced on its Tudum and Deadline platforms that filming for One Piece Season 3 started on November 24, 2025, in Cape Town, South Africa.

I initially thought a major event must have brought John Stamos and Jerry O’Connell together, and that turned out to be true. They both attended Howie Mandel’s 70th birthday party on November 22nd. During or after the celebration, O’Connell posted a selfie on Instagram with Stamos and his wife, Caitlin – whom O’Connell had previously met while working on Law & Order: SVU. The post also includes a funny reference to a recent high-profile meeting at the White House.

Kelli Giddish, who was a main cast member on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit for 12 years before departing in 2022, has returned to the show several times. She recently came back again, and told Extra she was thrilled, saying the show feels fresh even in its 27th season. SUV is currently airing its 22-episode season, and with Giddish and Ice-T each appearing in about half of the episodes so far, there appears to be enough space for all the sergeants on the force.

The flirting really kicked off the night before with a hot tub session, where Kizzi and Max kissed right in front of Cathy. Aesha pointed out to Cathy that Kizzi seems to target guys who are already with someone, suggesting she wants to be seen as the most desirable. Kizzi later told V she overheard Aesha and Cathy, and it upset her. It also probably didn’t feel great to hear Max ask Cathy for a kiss the next day, but it’s clear Kizzi isn’t looking for anything serious. She’s confessed she’s just interested in casual kissing.
