This week's entertainment lineup brings a mix of nostalgia and fresh storytelling. The 90s slasher flick I Know What You Did Last Summer gets a modern reboot, tapping into the current trend of reviving old franchises. Meanwhile, Sterling K. Brown stars in Washington Black, a historical epic that promises depth and standout performances. Whether you're craving throwback thrills or something more substantial, there's something hitting screens soon.

Editor’s Note: Reboots and adaptations dominate pop culture right now, but this week’s releases show how that trend can deliver both fun nostalgia (I Know What You Did Last Summer) and serious artistry (Washington Black). It’s a reminder that revisiting old ideas doesn’t have to feel lazy—sometimes it’s just the right time for a fresh take.

Keeley Hawes stars in The Assassin, a fresh and darkly comedic thriller about a retired hitwoman dragged back into the game to protect her oblivious son. The show blends sharp humor, brutal action, and a surprisingly heartfelt take on motherhood—all while flipping the typical assassin trope on its head. Critics are calling it bold, original, and wildly entertaining.

Editor’s Note: Assassin stories are usually grim and hyper-serious, but this one leans into the absurdity of a mum balancing family life with professional killing. It’s a clever twist that makes the genre feel new again—plus, Keeley Hawes’ performance is getting rave reviews. If you’re tired of predictable action shows, this might be your next binge.

Believe it or not, it's been 30 years since Clueless first hit screens, introducing us to Cher Horowitz's iconic wardrobe, slang like "totally buggin'," and a closet we're still jealous of today. This piece dives into fun behind-the-scenes tidbits and cultural ripple effects of the 1995 teen comedy that defined a generation.

Editor’s Note: Clueless wasn’t just a movie—it was a vibe that shaped fashion, slang, and even how we talk about high school hierarchies. Revisiting its legacy reminds us why it’s still quoted, memed, and loved decades later. Plus, who doesn’t want an excuse to revisit that plaid mini-skirt moment?

The latest Jurassic World installment, Rebirth, has stomped past the Rs 100 crore mark in India, making it the second-biggest Hollywood hit there this year. With Scarlett Johansson and Mahershala Ali leading the cast, the film crushed its opening weekend and has already raked in over $500 million worldwide, thanks to its gripping plot and massive global appeal.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another dinosaur flick—it’s proof that big-budget Hollywood blockbusters still have serious pull in India, even as local films dominate. The franchise’s enduring popularity also shows how nostalgia (hello, Jurassic Park fans) and fresh star power can keep audiences hooked. For studios, it’s a green light to keep investing in India’s booming cinema market.

Bollywood's glitterati turned out in force for a special screening of Mohit Suri's Saiyaara at Yash Raj Studios, celebrating the film's unexpected box office success. The Panday clan—Ahaan, Ananya, and Chunky—led the star power, joined by heavyweights like Bobby Deol and Disha Patani. The movie, headlined by fresh faces, has outperformed predictions, adding buzz to its underdog story.

Editor’s Note: When a star-studded premiere doubles as a victory lap, it’s a sign the industry’s paying attention. Saiyaara’s warm reception (and A-lister turnout) hints at a shifting appetite for new talent—or at least a well-told story. For fans, it’s a peek behind the velvet rope; for insiders, a pulse check on what’s resonating.

Ever watched a villain so chillingly well-acted that you can't shake the feeling of dislike for the actor who played them? That's the buzz around Iwan Rheon's portrayal of Ramsay Bolton in Game of Thrones—a performance so unnerving that fans still associate him with the character’s sadistic charm.

Editor’s Note: Great acting can leave a lasting impression—sometimes too lasting. This piece taps into a relatable pop-culture phenomenon where actors become inseparable from their villainous roles in the audience's mind. It’s a testament to their skill, but also a weird side effect of fandom: loving to hate them.

Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's new film Saiyaara has kicked off with a bang, raking in a solid ₹20 crore on its opening day—way more than industry insiders expected. The movie, which blends fresh faces with heartfelt storytelling, struck a chord with audiences, especially in urban centers, and even outshone some Hollywood releases.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another Bollywood debut—it’s proof that audiences are hungry for new talent and emotionally driven stories. Saiyaara’s success could push studios to take more risks on fresh pairings and narratives, shaking up the usual star-driven formula. Plus, beating Hollywood films on home turf? That’s always a win for Indian cinema.

It's a decent but not record-breaking weekend at the box office. Superman is still flying high, pulling in around $16M on its second Friday, though that’s a steep 71% drop from its debut. It’s on track for a $55M second weekend, pushing its global total past $200M. Meanwhile, I Know What You Did… is scraping together $13M, and The Smurfs are off to a modest $12M start. Not a disaster, but nothing to write home about either.

Editor’s Note: If you’re keeping score, Superman is holding up okay but not defying gravity—big second-week drops are typical for superhero flicks these days. The other releases? Meh. It’s a quiet weekend, but theaters will take it after some rougher slumps. Basically, Hollywood’s chugging along, waiting for the next big hit.

Aamir Khan's latest film Sitaare Zameen Par is still drawing crowds, and writer Divy Nidhi Sharma—who also worked on Laapataa Ladies—has shut down rumors that Khan meddles too much on set. Sharma says while he’s definitely hands-on, he values the script and fosters open collaboration, not overbearing control.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another box office update—it’s a peek behind the curtain at how Aamir Khan operates. Given his reputation for perfectionism, Sharma’s defense matters because it counters the stereotype of the "difficult star" and highlights a more collaborative side of big-name actors. For fans and aspiring filmmakers, it’s a reassuring reminder that creative partnerships can thrive without ego clashes.
