Eva Longoria’s ‘Necaxa’ Docuseries From ‘Welcome To Wrexham’ Team Gets Premiere Date At FXX

Ben Stephenson, former BBC drama chief and seasoned TV exec, is shaking things up with his new indie production company, Poison Pen. In an exclusive chat, he reveals plans to use crime stories as a springboard for bold, character-driven narratives—while taking a fresh spin on book adaptations. Think less formulaic, more inventive.

Editor’s Note: Stephenson’s track record (he helped shape hits like Sherlock and Happy Valley) means his new venture could bring a jolt of creativity to the drama scene. If he delivers on his promise to "twist the mainstream," we might see fewer cookie-cutter crime shows and more daring storytelling. For TV fans, that’s exciting news.

Brad Pitt and director Joseph Kosinski raved about filming their upcoming movie F1 during the actual Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, calling the experience "amazing." A new promo video shows how the race’s high-octane atmosphere and Yas Marina Circuit’s futuristic setting gave the film an authentic, adrenaline-fueled backdrop.

Editor’s Note: Big-budget movies often rely on CGI or staged sets for racing scenes, but shooting during a live Formula 1 race—with roaring crowds and real drivers—adds a level of realism that’s hard to fake. For fans, this could mean F1: The Movie delivers something fresh: the thrill of the sport, captured in the moment. Plus, it’s another win for Abu Dhabi’s push to be a global hub for both sports and blockbuster filmmaking.

The unexpected passing of actress Shefali Jariwala has left fans and authorities searching for answers. Initial postmortem results haven't pinpointed a clear cause of death, so additional tests are being conducted. Reports suggest she had eaten day-old rice after fasting and later felt unwell, taking medication and undergoing an anti-aging treatment before her death. The uncertainty around what happened has only deepened the mystery.

Editor’s Note: When a public figure dies suddenly, it naturally raises questions—especially when the cause isn’t immediately clear. Beyond the personal tragedy, stories like this often highlight gaps in public understanding of health risks, the pressures of celebrity culture, or even broader issues like food safety. For now, everyone’s waiting for answers.

Actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu just dropped a sweet blast-from-the-past moment on Instagram—a moody black-and-white throwback of her at 16, curled up on a couch in a printed dress. It’s one of those nostalgic "who was I back then?" posts, sandwiched between her usual updates about her current life.

Editor’s Note: While it’s just a casual throwback, these glimpses into stars’ younger selves humanize them—fans love seeing the "before fame" authenticity. For Samantha, it’s also a subtle way to keep engagement high between bigger career updates. (And let’s be real, who doesn’t enjoy a little vintage celeb nostalgia?)

The sequel to The Old Guard, The Old Guard 2, brings back Charlize Theron and her team of immortal warriors, but this time the film struggles to recapture the energy of the original. Directed by Victoria Mahoney (taking over from Gina Prince-Bythewood), the follow-up feels sluggish, overly serious, and less engaging—more like a generic action flick than the fresh, dynamic first installment.

Editor’s Note: If you loved the first movie’s mix of action and depth, this review suggests the sequel might disappoint. It’s a cautionary take for fans hoping for another standout—proof that even immortal warriors can’t always escape the curse of lackluster sequels.
