Went Up the Hill's main characters Jack (Dacre Montgomery) and Jill (Vicky Krieps), might be reminiscent of a nursery rhyme, but this story is more of a nightmare. That's true for audiences of the supernatural, horror thriller directed by Samuel Van Grinsven, but also for its stars, who told Entertainment Weekly at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival that shooting some scenes were particularly tough, because it involved them and an ice-cold lake.

Mike Flanagan, the horror maestro behind The Haunting of Hill House, Doctor Sleep, The Fall of the House of Usher, and so many other genre hits, is still very much working on his vision for Stephen King's The Dark Tower. But first, he's taking a detour. Universal Pictures announced Flanagan...

Amy Adams is a different person — actually, a different species — in her new movie, Nightbitch. The first trailer was released Tuesday for the film adaptation of Rachel Yoder's novel about an unfulfilled stay-at-home mom who begins transforming into a dog — literally. Adams' formerly ambitious artist who now takes care of her son full-time begins to grow more hair and her teeth begin to sharpen. She eats food like a hungry dog chowing down from its bowl.

Marlon Wayans and his many family members who worked on TV's In Living Color weren't wearing sunglasses just to be cool on the 1992 Christmas episode. It was a protest. "You ain't going to f--- my brother," the actor and comedian said on Club Shay Shay's Thursday podcast about an incident related to show creator Keenen Ivory Wayans. "We a family. You touch one, you touch all."

Remember Barney? The purple dinosaur whose "I Love You" song was "Baby Shark"-level annoying before "Baby Shark" was a thing? Well, he returns to TV soon, voiced by the scene-stealing Trap actor who launched one of this summer's funniest movie memes. Mattel's super-dee-duper dinosaur is coming back after 14 years...

Following the first look at actors Cooper Koch and Nicholas Alexander Chavez as the infamous Menendez Brothers, as well as Chloë Sevigny and Javier Bardem as their parents, Netflix released the first full trailer for Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story, revealing fresh looks at how the anthology crime drama will tackle this subject.

Despite a trio of knockout performances, The Cut is a lackluster boxing drama. Orlando Bloom's character, known only as Boxer, runs a boxing gym with his partner Caitlin (Caitriona Balfe). Until the death of a fighter propels him back into the ring for one last shot at glory, even if it might cost him everything. Bloom is the center of the drama, his handsome leading man visage transformed by prosthetics that give him a broken nose, cauliflower ears, and a pugilist's demeanor. It is truly a physical leap for Bloom, and he disappears into the role of a hard-scrabble, mumbling Irishman.

In 1981, pop-music sensation Andy Gibb was at the top of the charts. The younger brother of Barry, Robin, and Maurice, a.k.a. The Bee Gees, commenced a tumultuous romance with actress Victoria Principle, who played Pam Ewing on Dallas, TV's then-Number 1 prime-time series. But after the relationship ended, Andy's life, already challenged by substance abuse, did as well. This is their tragic story.

The Survivor 43 alum came in second place in the men's 400-meter T38 event at the Paris Paralympics on Tuesday, just behind fellow American runner Jaydin Blackwell, who posted a time of 48.49 seconds.

For the past 11 years, LL Cool J has worn many hats beyond his iconic Kangol bucket: ex–Navy SEAL crime fighter, five-time Grammys host (and two-time Grammy winner), lip-sync emcee, Kennedy Center honoree, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, insurance pitchman. But there was one conspicuously missing during that stretch of time: rapper. That's set to change as the multi-hyphenate returns to the medium and label (Def Jam/Virgin Music Group) that birthed him with The Force, his 14th studio album, and first since 2013's Authentic. Not only is he undaunted by the challenge of getting back into the game after more than a decade, he seems to relish it.

After decades of friendship, Gael García Bernal and Diego Luna can still impress each other. Re-teaming onscreen for the first time since 2010, the duo star in Hulu's first Spanish-language original series La Máquina, which they also executive produce together. The series centers on Esteban "La Máquina" Osuna (García Bernal), an aging boxer preparing to enter the ring for one last chance at glory, and his childhood friend/manager Andy Lujan (Luna), who is a bit over-obsessed with how he appears on the outside despite making some dark deals that have put him and Esteban on a dangerous path with questionable people.

After a fall TV launch that was muted by 2023's double strike, EW is jumping back into what we do best this year with exclusive photos and interviews with juicy info on more than 75 shows. It all kicked off yesterday with our 2024 Fall TV Preview digital issue featuring NBC's and continues through the next two weeks.

How to Die Alone was not going to die. Not if Natasha Rothwell could help it. The Insecure star first began working on it in 2016 and carried it across two development deals before it landed at Hulu. "There are many opportunities that I was given to walk away from it, but something in me told me that this had to be born and see the light of day, so I’m glad I didn’t give up,” Rothwell tells Entertainment Weekly.

The family is still going strong. The long-running Fast & Furious franchise kicked off in 2001 with the (comparatively simple) story of an LAPD officer going undercover with a crew of street racers suspected to be hijackers. Eleven films later, and the saga has taken all manner of globe-trotting twists and turns, tackling terrorism and even going into outer space. Through it all, fans have loyally followed Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) and fam to the tune of more than $7 billion at the box office, making it one of the most successful film franchises of all time.

When I studied Anthropology in college, I learned that teeth have been indicators of economic status just about forever. Archaeologists look at the teeth in ancient skeletons and know who the rich were based on their tooth decay. During the Renaissance period, it became fashionable for women to blacken their teeth to look like they were better off than they were, because the royals and aristocrats, who could afford sugar and sweets, had more rotten and missing teeth than the poor.

Opinion: Stop Stereotyping Bad Teeth as a Sign of Drug Addiction

Green Day was rushed off stage mid-performance during a concert in Detroit on Wednesday night, purportedly after an American idiot flew an unauthorized drone over the venue. In video shared across social media, Billie Joe Armstrong and co. were mid-performance of their hit "Longview" at Comerica Park before a member of security ran onto stage, causing the group to promptly make their exits. A few moments of silence were followed by a message on the video screen to attendees: "Show pause. Please standby for details."
