Sen. Lindsay Graham went on a fear-mongering rant about President Joe Biden’s actions to forgive student debt, calling the relief “beyond lawless and beyond dangerous.”
The Biden-Harris administration has approved $167 billion in student debt as of the end of May, helping 4.75 million borrowers across the country. But Graham is furious about it.
“There’s nothing in our law [that] allows him to forgive student loans. If you’re out there working and didn’t go to college, Joe Biden’s forgiving student loans, and you’re paying for them,” the...

Ti West and A24 pulled off a killer surprise Thursday night, unveiling an early screening of their upcoming slasher movie Maxxxine to a group of unsuspecting horror fans.
The evening was billed as a double feature of West’s X horror series, which includes X and Pearl, the movies that thrust Mia Goth into the role Hollywood’s nouveau killer queen. The sold-out evening brought out film nerds and horror geeks of all shapes and hairstyles — some dressed up as Pearl, some wearing Pearl T-shirts, while others sported T-shirts with logos and characters ranging from X-Men to Once Upon a Time in Hollywood‘s Rick Dalton.
During a Q&a in between the two screenings, moderator and Maxxxine actress Lily Collins and West suddenly switched gears. Collins asked how many in the audience had seen Pearl — and almost all raised their hands. She then posited the question: if everyone had seen that movie,...

Travis Knight, the director of Bumblebee and Kubo and the Two Strings and the CEO of Laika Studios, is gearing up for something strange with an animated adaptation of Susanna Clarke’s best-selling novel Piranesi. Before Knight commits himself to bringing this weird and wonderful tale to life, he’s busy working on Wildwood, a stop-motion animated adaptation of the fantasy novels by Colin Meloy. Laika’s intention to bring Wildwood to screens dates back to when the premiere animation studio made The Boxtrolls. I should know. I was there and read Wildwood in my hotel after the studio teased the project.
Wildwood stars the voices of Peyton Elizabeth Lee, Jacob Tremblay, Mahershala Ali, and more. The story is told from multiple points of view, and the book features more than eighty illustrations, including six full-color plates. In Wildwood, Prue and her friend Curtis uncover a secret world amid violent...

A ranking of all The Hunger Games movies? We volunteer! We volunteer this tribute!
With the recent news that Lionsgate is developing a new Hunger Games movie based on Suzanne Collins’ forthcoming fifth novel in the saga (titled The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping), we figured it was time to reexamine all the previous journeys to Panem — which kicked off with the 2012 original and continued through three sequels (it should have been two, but more on that shortly) and one recent prequel, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.
The films launched the career of Oscar winner Jennifer Lawrence as vulnerable-yet-steely rebellion hero Katniss Everdeen, who brought down the sinister gilded Capitol led by President Snow (Donald Sutherland) while fending off the interest of two hometown suitors, Peeta (Josh Hutcherson) and Gale (Liam Hemsworth). There were also ongoing themes of wealth and social inequality, which gave the saga some literary...

Rob Base never thought “It Takes Two” would become a massive hit. He and DJ E-z Rock were just aiming to make a neighborhood party record, straight from the streets of Harlem, to get bodies moving in their local clubs and skating rings.

Many of the recurring faces on "The Simpsons" have the same voice: Harry Shearer. Alongside Hank Azaria, Shearer does more than double duty in playing the series' supporting cast. As a testament to his range, his roles run the gamut from nice guy Ned Flanders to milquetoast Principal Skinner (don't say Armin Tamzarian) to evil Mr. Charles Montgomery Burns, owner of the Springfield Nuclear Plant and Homer Simpson's boss.
Shearer is the definitive voice of Mr. Burns (he's been doing it for 30+ seasons), but he wasn't the first actor to voice the character. That would be the late Christopher Collins, who was briefly part of the "Simpsons" cast during its first season, which aired from 1989 to 1990. Collins voiced Burns in the following episodes: "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire," "Homer's Odyssey," "There's No Disgrace Like Home," and "The Telltale Head."
Shearer took over in the season 1 episode "Homer's Night Out.

A biopic based on the life of legendary singer-songwriter and dancer Michael Jackson has been in the works at Lionsgate. The project is generating plenty of hype with its first-look images and the talented cast attached to it. Therefore, it is understandable why Lionsgate executive Jim Packer feels that the movie will become the studio’s biggest hit of all time.
Lionsgate is working on a Michael Jackson biopic directed by Antoine Fuqua (Credit: Beat It | Billboard Music).
Titled Michael, the film is being directed by Antoine Fuqua and is expected to be released next year. During a recent event, Packer spoke highly of the upcoming biopic and expressed faith that it would beat the Jennifer Lawrence-led Hunger Games franchise to become the studio’s biggest blockbuster of all time.

As you will most likely know, The Hunger Games novel series by Suzanne Collins is a pillar of modern young adult fiction and one of the most important franchises of our time. It started off as a trilogy of novels – The Hunger Games (2008), Catching Fire (2009), and Mockingjay (2010) – which was later adapted into a well-received and lucrative film series. In 2020, Collins wrote The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, and we reported just yesterday that a new prequel novel, Sunrise on the Reaping, would be published on March 18, 2025. And while we have discussed a possible adaptation, we did not expect any official announcement anytime soon, seeing how the book is not even out yet.
But, just a day later, it was officially confirmed that a movie adaptation of the yet-unreleased novel Sunrise on the Reaping would be made and that it is scheduled for a November 20, 2026, theatrical release date.

The Hunger Games Gets New Prequel Set 40 Years After The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes - Main Image
Franchise author Suzanne Collins plans to release another prequel for The Hunger Games, this time, set 40 years after the events of The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. Learn more about its slated release date and story below!
Suzanne Collins' New Hunger Games Novel Slated For 2025 Release
The recent prequel Hunger Games story earned $337 million at the box office, despite the film only costing $100 million total.
Still, it could never compare to the original film franchise starring Jennifer Lawrence's Katniss Everdeen (Catching Fire had the highest-grossing with $865 million).
However, considering the Panem is a much larger place to explore, it comes as no surprise that Suzanne Collins is penning another prequel Hunger Games book.

Earlier today, the news broke that author Suzanne Collins is writing a new Hunger Games novel titled Sunrise on the Reaping. It will arrive in bookstores on March 18, 2025, and features a story which takes place 40 years after The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.
"With 'Sunrise on the Reaping,' I was inspired by David Hume’s idea of implicit submission and, in his words, 'the easiness with which the many are governed by the few,'" Collins explained. "The story also lent itself to a deeper dive into the use of propaganda and the power of those who control the narrative. The question 'Real or not real?' seems more pressing to me every day."
Fans of the hit franchise wasted no time speculating that this book is likely setting the stage for another movie and, unsurprisingly, Lionsgate has confirmed plans (via SFFGazette.com) for The Hunger Games: Sunrise on...

There is a new Hunger Games movie in the works, and this time it will be a prequel about Haymitch Abernathy, the District 12 tribute and champion played by Woody Harrelson in the original cycle of films in the 2010s. The news came simultaneously Thursday with the announcement of the book upon which the film will be based: Suzanne Collins’ forthcoming The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping.
According to the press release, the new Young Adult novel and film will follow the events of the 50th Hunger Games, aka the Second Quarter Quell, when Haymitch became an unwilling tribute as a teenager. Presumably the experiences he endured both in the arena and the Capitol will turn him into the bitter middle-aged drunkard who Katniss Everdeen meets and redeems over the course of the original The Hunger Games story, which is set 24 years after the events of Sunrise on the Reaping.

The Hunger Games novel series by Suzanne Collins is a pillar of modern young adult fiction and one of the most important franchises of our time. It started off as a trilogy of novels – The Hunger Games (2008), Catching Fire (2009), and Mockingjay (2010) – which was later adapted into a well-received and lucrative film series. In 2020, Collins wrote The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, a prequel novel that was also recently adapted into a movie, and we have just received confirmation that Sunrise on the Reaping, another prequel novel, will officially be published on March 18, 2025, expanding the fictional universe of The Hunger Games.
The novel has been kept under wraps for some time, but this piece of news is certainly exciting as we now know that Collins has not given up on the franchise, which means that more works might appear in the future, which would be great!

A new Hunger Games novel by author Suzanne Collins will be published on March 18, 2025, publisher Scholastic announced today. Sunrise on the Reaping will be the fifth in the dystopian book series.
The new book will be set 24 years before the original Hunger Games novel and 40 years after the most recent installment The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.
While Collins pointed to such influences as Greek mythology and Roman gladiators for her earlier entries in the series, she said the new one owes a nod to Enlightenment philosopher David Hume.
“With Sunrise on the Reaping, I was inspired by David Hume’s idea of implicit submission and, in his words, ‘the easiness with which the many are governed by the few.’ The story also lent itself to a deeper dive into the use of propaganda and the power of those who control the narrative. The question ‘Real or not real?’ seems...

Suzanne Collins’s bank account volunteers as tribute!
The creator of the wildly popular “Hunger Games” series has put pen to paper and will release a fifth volume in her dystopian book franchise for young adult readers, as per a report by the Associated Press. “The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping” is expected to hit shelves on March 18, 2025, and will further develop the mythos of the post-apocalyptic fascist government whose society is somehow dependent on teen gladiatorial events.
The 61-year-old writer, whose career began working on Nickelodeon shows like “Clarissa Explains it All,” “The Mystery Files of Shelby Woo,” and “Wow! Wow! Wubzy!” has sold an estimated 100 million copies of her “Hunger Games” novels thus far.
The initial book trilogy was of course adapted into a wildly popular four-part film series starring Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, and Liam Hemsworth, and featured a slew of festively dressed side characters played by Stanley Tucci,...

Author Suzanne Collins is returning to the world of Panem.
Collins and her publisher Scholastic on Thursday announced that a new installment in the Hunger Games series will be released next year.
The new book — the fifth in the series — will be called Sunrise on the Reaping, and is set for release March 18, 2025.
Later on Thursday, Lionsgate announced that a new film is in the works based on the novel; The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping will be the sixth movie in the franchise.
Sunrise will take place 24 years before the events of the first novel The Hunger Games, “starting on the morning of the reaping of the Fiftieth Hunger Games, also known as the Second Quarter Quell,” per Scholastic.

There is no denying that Toy Story is one of the greatest pieces of animated storytelling. The film represents the true extent of the medium and was one of the first to showcase it on such a large scale. Cartoons no longer needed to be two dimensional, and these sorts of films could hold so much more meaning than anyone could have imagined.

After this, when fans could not think things could get better, Pixar released Toy Story 2. The film has been regarded as a masterpiece everywhere, and its 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes only reinforces it.
However, many of its fans would not know what actually happened behind the scenes, during the production of the movie. It would seem that the animators and crew of the film had to break their backs trying to meet the deadlines they were given.

Similar to Marvel Studios, it's been a tough few years for Pixar. The studio's movies were sent straight to Disney+ during the pandemic and a couple of box office flops have tarnished the brand to a point where they're now in the process of rebuilding their reputation.
In a new Bloomberg report (via Toonado.com), more is revealed about how the studio is finally pivoting away from streaming to focus its efforts on theatrical titles. However, we're still getting at least one more TV show: Dream Productions is "set in the Inside Out universe of Riley's dreams" and expected to premiere in 2025.
The hope is that Inside Out 2 will be a hit and it won't be the last sequel we see from Pixar in the coming years. According to the report, "every hit of yesterday is being considered for a reboot, with Finding Nemo and The Incredibles regarded as...

Even though it’s not the guest stars who make the show, but the regular cast, there is some magic about one-episode characters played by someone the audience knows and loves. Just like every major procedural on TV that has been running long enough, NCIS had its fair share of actors, hosts and even political figures joining the team.
Here are 8 biggest names who have joined the NCIS family throughout the years, and where exactly in the show you can find them.
Troian Bellisario
Best known for her portrayal of Spencer Hastings in Pretty Little Liars, Bellisario appeared in two episodes of NCIS as Agent McGee's sister, Sarah. Her appearance on the show before her big break is easy to explain, as Troian is the daughter of Donald P. Bellisario, the mastermind behind both Jag and NCIS.

Pat Sajak is only a few weeks away from retirement and is showing his softer side as of late, like on Tuesday’s (May 21) Wheel of Fortune, where he sympathized with a contestant after a baffling puzzle blunder. The contestant in question was Brittany Collins, a children’s hospital facilitator and Bingo player from Louisville, Kentucky, who faced off against Susan Meissner from Charleston, South Carolina, and Blake Swoboda from Houston, Texas. Collins looked primed for a successful night when she nailed the $1,000 and $2,000 Tossup puzzles under the “Things” and “Food and Drink” categories. However, she hit a brick wall when she faced what appeared to be an obvious “Phrase” puzzle. The puzzle board read: “A N _ T _ I N G / I S / P O S S I _ _ E.” Instead of choosing to solve, Collins asked for another letter and shockingly selected an “R,” which, of course, was wrong. Wheel...

"The City on the Edge of Forever" is often considered the best episode of the series. In it, Captain Kirk (William Shatner) and Spock (Leonard Nimoy) encounter an impossibly ancient stone archway called the Guardian of Forever. The Guardian (Bartell Larue) is so old it has developed consciousness and serves as a time travel conduit for curious historians. Unexpectedly, Dr. McCoy (DeForest Kelley) runs through the portal — he's hopped up on drugs — and travels instantly to Earth in 1930. Kirk and Spock follow him to ensure he doesn't foul with history.
In 1930, Kirk meets an activist named Edith Keeler (Joan Collins), a kindly soul who speaks out against the growing war efforts in Europe. Kirk falls in love. Spock, however, constructs a widget showing him that only two possible futures can come of their time travel interference. It seems that if Edith Keeler dies in a car accident, it will retain...

My favorite scene in the hilarious new film “The Fall Guy” is the one where Emily Blunt (recent Best Supporting Actress Oscar nominee for “Oppenheimer”) belts out the Phil Collins classic “Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now)” as Ryan Gosling (recent Best Supporting Actor Oscar nominee for “Barbie”) finds himself in a particularly dramatic — and dangerous — sequence of events.
As Blunt sang with all her heart, I couldn’t help but think of how perfect the timing was.
Forty years ago this very month, the famous power ballad had just completed a three-week reign on top of the Billboard Hot 100. “Against All Odds” was the title song from the romantic thriller starring Jeff Bridges, Rachel Ward and James Woods. The Taylor Hackford-directed movie was met with solid reviews and healthy ticket sales. But its most notable success was Collins’s song, which quickly took the Billboard chart by storm.

Lily Collins’ character in Windfall is a woman of few words. So few, in fact, that she doesn’t even have a name — she’s known as “Wife” while her husband (Jesse Plemons) is “CEO” and the robber they stumble upon in their California mansion (Jason Segel) is “Nobody.” But about 10 minutes before the movie ends, Wife makes a big decision. Huge. The audience may not know exactly what is about to happen, but a determined look in her eyes makes it clear something is about to go down. [Be warned, major spoilers ahead.]
“I think at the beginning of the movie, you don’t expect the trajectory that she’s going to go on,” Collins tells Tudum.
But before we dive into exactly what happens, let’s unpack the story leading up to our surprise ending. Wife and CEO spend the film being held hostage by Nobody, who’s broken into their expansive...

Bonjour, Emily in Parisfans.
Since it's been a minute since we hung out with our friends in the City of Lights, and because we're more than ready for Season 3, we asked series star Lily Collins to recap all the drama, hilarity and fashionable moments from the second season of the show. The challenge? We gave her less than a minute to do so.
Ever the pro, Collins got the job done, sharing details surrounding Emily’s career crossroads, love triangle (or should that be love quadrangle?) and her big finale dilemma all before the clock ran out.
“When we left Emily, she was at a crossroads in her career, torn between joining her former boss’ new PR firm or staying at Savoir,” explains Collins in the recap. “If she follows Sylvie (Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu), Emily sacrifices any hopes of climbing the corporate ladder back to her beloved Chicago.”

To many Batman fans, the ultimate version of the character on the screen was the voice interpretation by the late Kevin Conroy. Conroy played Batman in numerous adaptations, but it all started with Batman: The Animated Series, arguably the best animated series in history. Conroy passed away in 2022 due to cancer and his last performance as The Dark Knight will be in Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths – Part Three, which is a posthumous appearance that will once again reunite Conroy’s Batman with Mark Hamill’s Joker.
Although Conroy actually got the chance to appear as a live-action version of Batman in the Batwoman episode “Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part Two,” which was part of a major Arrowverse crossover, he was supposed to make another live-action appearance in the canceled one-season show, Gotham Knights, according to the series’ showrunners.

Not long after their 2022 wedding, Trev Lukather (son of Toto guitarist Steve Lukather) and Madison Cain-Lukather (daughter of Journey keyboardist Jonathan Cain) were playing some vintage tunes on a road trip. They came across Journey’s 1986 song “It Could Have Been You,” which neither of them had ever heard. “We were just blown away,” Trev Lukather tells Rolling Stone. “I loved the funkiness of it, and Steve Perry’s vocals were just insane. We kept playing that song on repeat.”
