Comedian John Oliver didn’t hold back when reacting to CBS’s surprise decision to cancel The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, calling it "terrible news" for comedy. Oliver, a fellow late-night host and longtime friend of Colbert, seemed genuinely disappointed, hinting at the broader impact on the industry.

Editor’s Note: Late-night TV isn’t just about jokes—it’s a tight-knit community, and losing a heavyweight like Colbert shakes things up. Oliver’s reaction underscores how unexpected this move was and why fans (and fellow comedians) might be worried about the future of smart, satirical late-night shows.

Focus Features' upcoming remake of Sense and Sensibility just got even more star power, adding six new cast members—including Caitríona Balfe (Outlander), Frank Dillane (Fear the Walking Dead), and Fiona Shaw (Killing Eve)—to join Daisy Edgar-Jones and Esme Creed-Miles as the Dashwood sisters. Filming is already underway in the U.K. under the direction of Georgia Oakley, a BAFTA-nominated filmmaker.

Editor’s Note: Jane Austen adaptations are always a big deal, but this one’s shaping up to be something special. With a stacked cast and fresh creative vision, it could breathe new life into a classic story—and maybe even win over Austen purists. Plus, it’s another showcase for rising stars like Edgar-Jones, who’s having a major moment. If you love period dramas, this is one to watch.

Jason Momoa is bursting with pride over his 16-year-old son landing a role in Dune: Part Three as the child of Zendaya and Timothée Chalamet’s characters. In a candid reaction, Momoa admitted he couldn’t have handled the pressure of working with director Denis Villeneuve at that age, calling his son’s achievement entirely his own.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another Hollywood nepotism story—Momoa’s genuine awe for his son’s talent and composure makes it relatable. It’s a refreshing glimpse of a proud dad who recognizes his kid’s hard work, especially in an industry where legacies often overshadow merit. Plus, Dune fans get a fun nugget about the next installment.

If you're a Grateful Dead fan bummed about missing Dead & Company's final shows in San Francisco, here's some good news: the band's closing night at Golden Gate Park will be broadcast live in Imax theaters across the country on August 3. Even if you can't snag a ticket to the actual concert, you can still catch the magic on the big screen.

Editor’s Note: This is a big deal for Deadheads who couldn’t make it to San Francisco—live concert streams in Imax theaters are rare, and the immersive experience will be the next best thing to being there. It also shows how bands are getting creative with reaching fans who can’t always attend in person. Win-win for music lovers!

Rising star Adria Arjona, known for Andor and Splitsville, has landed the coveted co-lead role opposite Michael B. Jordan in Amazon MGM’s fresh take on The Thomas Crown Affair. She’s stepping in after Taylor Russell’s departure, joining an already stacked cast that includes Kenneth Branagh, Lily Gladstone, and Danai Gurira. This remake of the stylish heist-romance classic is shaping up to be a major project.

Editor’s Note: Casting news like this isn’t just industry chatter—it signals how studios are betting big on fresh talent (like Arjona) alongside established stars (hello, Michael B. Jordan). A Thomas Crown reboot could be a slick, modern twist on a beloved formula, and with this lineup, it’s got serious potential to draw audiences. Plus, Arjona’s rising profile makes her a fascinating pick to watch.
