Iconic Supermodel Takes a Dip at 56, More Can't-Miss Pics This Week

** Lino DiSalvo’s upcoming animated film *Twisted*, produced under Mediawan Kids & Family, is gaining serious traction at the Cannes Market. Sola Media has locked in distribution deals across multiple regions, including the Baltics, Latin America, the Middle East, and more. This signals strong international interest in the project before it even hits screens.

What This Mean: ** Big distribution deals like these are a solid vote of confidence in *Twisted*—it suggests buyers see potential in its appeal to global family audiences. For animation fans, this could mean another high-quality flick to look forward to, and for the industry, it’s a sign that original animated features still have serious market pull.

A bronze bust of Jim Morrison, swiped from his famous Paris gravesite back in the 1980s, has finally been tracked down by police. The sculpture was a centerpiece at the rock icon’s burial plot, which draws devoted fans from around the world. After nearly 40 years, the mystery of its disappearance has at least partly been solved.

What This Mean: For Doors fans, Morrison’s grave isn’t just a memorial—it’s a sacred spot. The theft of the bust decades ago felt like a violation of that legacy. Its recovery won’t undo the years it was missing, but it’s a small win for preserving music history (and maybe giving closure to die-hard fans who still make the pilgrimage to Père Lachaise Cemetery). Plus, it’s a quirky reminder of how far people will go for a piece of rock ‘n’ roll mythology.

The beloved actor George Wendt, best known for playing the lovable barfly Norm Peterson on *Cheers*, has passed away. His co-star Ted Danson shared heartfelt words, saying he's "devastated" by the loss. Wendt’s character was a fan favorite, and his portrayal left a lasting mark on TV comedy.

What This Mean: For fans of *Cheers* and classic sitcoms, Wendt’s death hits hard—he was part of a cultural touchstone that defined 80s and 90s TV. His character’s deadpan humor and everyman charm made him unforgettable, and his passing is a reminder of the show’s enduring legacy.

** The European Union is stepping in with emergency funding to support Radio Free Europe after the Trump administration cut off its U.S. grants. The pro-democracy broadcaster, known for its independent reporting in regions with restricted press freedoms, faced financial uncertainty—but the EU’s move ensures it can keep operating for now.

What This Mean: ** This isn’t just about money—it’s a signal of who’s willing to back independent journalism when political winds shift. Radio Free Europe has long been a thorn in the side of authoritarian regimes, so its survival matters for free speech in places where truth is under siege. The EU’s intervention highlights the growing role of non-U.S. allies in sustaining global democratic tools.
