We Unpack Ariana Grande's Big Announcement & A Brutally Honest Review Of Petal
The internet has become obsessed with Wicker, the peculiar new film starring Olivia Colman, Alexander Skarsgård and Peter Dinklage. We finally watched the trailer together, unpack why everyone's thirsting over a wicker man, and reveal the weird fictional characters we can't stop crushing on. Then, Ariana Grande's new album petal has arrived, and we're diving into our favourite tracks, the themes that run through the record, and the emotional announcement she made alongside its release. We also unpack the growing scrutiny surrounding her public life and why she's choosing to step back from the spotlight.

A Brutally Honest Review Of The Odyssey (Part 1)
There was SO much to say about Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey that we couldn't fit it into one episode — we tried, we failed miserably, and honestly we're thrilled about it, so you're getting a two-parter. This is Part 1, where we set sail into the three-hour epic everyone's been waiting for. We get into the Trojan Horse reimagining that traces back to the Troy movie Nolan never made, and the brutal sacrifice that recontextualises the whole opening. We defend the Cyclops (hear us out — on a rewatch, he's the victim). We break down the slow, skin-crawling transformation scene that out-brutals every battle. And we get into why the first woman to translate The Odyssey, absolutely hates this film — the missing sex, the grim food, all of it. It's epic, brutal and occasionally unhinged. Part 2 drops soon.

Weekend Watch: An Unmissable Comedy, The Marvel Movie We’ve Been Waiting For & A Thrilling Shark Film
The cult Aussie rom-com everyone's been quietly obsessed with is back for its third and final season, and if you've somehow missed it, now's the time to catch up. Its real-life married co-creators have the kind of chemistry you can't fake, backed by a scene-stealing cast of chaotic families and coworkers. Plus, The Spill team hit the premiere of the biggest superhero movie of the year — don't worry, we're keeping things spoiler-free, but we're unpacking why even the Marvel-fatigued are walking out obsessed, one surprise appearance we're still not over, and the very human story underneath it all. And if you're after something completely different, we've also got a recommendation for a tense new shark thriller set inside an underwater cave system.

The Hacking Scandal Overshadowing Ariana Grande's New Album & We Need To Talk About A Glee Comeback
Ariana Grande told some alleged hackers she'd see them in jail, and now she's actually following through. We're unpacking the lawsuit she's filed over stolen unreleased music, private photos and a multi-year campaign that reached deep into her inner circle. Plus the darker history it drags up: Hugh Grant, the royals, and the 2014 scandal one A-lister has never recovered from. Meanwhile, a tiny $3 million movie became a cult obsession, and now its brand-new sequel trailer has us clutching our chests all over again. If you're scared of heights, look away now. Plus, an offhand comment has us spiralling over the one reboot we didn't know we needed. We're getting emotional about Lea Michele's wild attempts at a redemption arc, the cast we lost, and whether some magic is better left untouched.

The Tom Cruise Story We’ve Been Trained To Forget & An Infamous Hollywood Romance Has Resurfaced
Tom Cruise's daughter has quietly cut the cord, and she didn't need a headline to do it. We're unpacking how Suri chose a very pointed new surname, where eagle-eyed fans found the proof, and why this feels like the loudest silent statement in Hollywood. Then, one of the buzziest new shows has pulled off a casting move so cheeky it's basically a dare. Two of its young stars share a very tangled family history, because their parents were once one of Hollywood's great fairytale romances — and reporters on the red carpet made them squirm over it. Plus, a fresh first look at a bold new take on an icon, with two very different actresses stepping into the same legendary shoes.

Zendaya and Tom Holland’s PR Plan Uncovered & The Juicy Book Drama About Natalie Portman
Nicole Kidman has resurfaced in Portofino with a mystery man on her arm, and the grainy, old-school paparazzi shots have us fully spiralling. After that heartbreaking Keith Urban split, we're unpacking why the whole internet (us very much included) is quietly rooting for her romantic little escapade. Then Zendaya and Tom Holland have spent months running two wildly different press tours, and the contrast is telling. We're deep diving into how one half is a giddy 'wife guy' and the other is dodging every question with surgical precision, and what it reveals about keeping a marriage secret in plain sight. Plus, the pop culture collision we can't stop obsessing over: a beloved author, a famous former friend, and a new novel so thinly veiled that Hollywood and the New York literary scene are equally scandalised. Someone feels very betrayed — and the fallout mirrors the book itself.

A Brutally Honest Review Of Em's Favourite Movie: Jurassic Park
Emily's been waiting years to make us do this one — and with Sam Neill's passing this year, we're honouring him by unpacking his greatest role. Thirty-three years on, we're revisiting the original Jurassic Park and getting into the one decision Spielberg made that keeps it from feeling dated, even as every CGI-heavy reboot has failed to come close. We're also spiralling over the behind-the-scenes bombshell that he didn't even want to direct this — and the wild deal that got it made while he was editing another masterpiece on the other side of the world. Plus our completely unhinged case that Jurassic Park is secretly a feminist manifesto, from the all-female dinosaurs to why the velociraptors are the real heroines. It's nostalgic, it's chaotic, and yes — Emily cried over a fictional dinosaur.

Weekend Watch: The New Jennifer Garner Show We're Obsessed With & A Wild Toxic Love Story
There's a new drama on Binge that's already got everyone talking, and the cast list alone is worth the watch — Jennifer Garner, Gemma Chan, Regina Hall, Judy Greer, Timothy Olyphant and a scene-stealing Chloë Sevigny. Based on a beloved bestseller, it follows a grieving food blogger who gathers a friend from every era of her life for one weekend on the island. And we can't stop thinking about the Netflix true crime doc that's genuinely one of the best we've seen. It opens with an idyllic Californian couple, some terrifying anonymous emails and a Craigslist twist too disturbing to spoil — then keeps flipping. Conflicting accounts, lying witnesses, evidence that changes everything: you won't know what to think until the very end. Plus a soapy, sexy small-town Texas romance is back on Netflix for season two — basically Yellowstone's fun cousin, led by two faces you've loved for years.

Why The World Thinks Meghan Markle Is Feuding With An Aussie Celebrity & Our Plea To Marvel
Meghan Markle's MasterChef Australia episode drops this weekend, and the internet has already decided she's at war with the show's most beloved judge. But dig into who's actually behind these headlines and the whole thing starts to smell like a very familiar beat-up. Then we're giving Marvel some tough love. The first Avengers Doomsday trailer is finally here, it's stacked with more cameos than we can count, and yet we walked away worried. We're getting into the return no one asked for, the "lazy" storytelling loophole, and whether this can possibly live up to Endgame. Plus the horror trailer that made our whole team scream — a contortionist ghost, a Jessica Chastain double, and a jump scare so inventive we've been forcing it on everyone we know. We also need to address the Coraline of it all.

Ryan Gosling Threw A Tantrum, Jennifer Garner’s Surprise Role & Inside A Dramatic MAFS Split
Jennifer Garner swore she was only popping by the Suddenly 30 set to maybe sneak into a background shot, so why has she been papped in full Jenna Rink mode? We're unpacking the leaked photos she very much didn't want getting out, and what her surprise return (alongside another very familiar face) actually means for the reboot. Plus, MAFS gave us its one real fairytale this year: a genuine proposal, an actual engagement, a couple who seemed to make it. And now it's over, with one half saying they were completely blindsided. We're getting into who ended it, and the very specific reality-TV formula behind how the news dropped. Meanwhile, Ryan Gosling has finally won his decade-long war against the La La Land poster, and we're outraged. Erasing iconic cinema over one self-conscious hand? We're explaining why it's a dangerous precedent, and why complaining might've been his biggest mistake.

The Unhinged Taylor Swift Link To Ex Matty Healy's Wedding & An Urgent Debrief On Gracie Abrams' New Album
Gracie Abrams has dropped her third album Daughter From Hell, and the reviews are savage. We're unpacking the most brutal takedowns (and the outlets quietly calling it her best yet), plus the question no one wants to ask: has being blissfully in love with Paul Mescal drained the heartbreak that made her music hit? Plus, another A-list wedding for the week: Matty Healey has married it-girl Gabbriette Bechtel at Madonna's former LA estate, complete with an old-Hollywood dress code and one of the most jaw-dropping gothic gowns we've seen in years. And we can't ignore the timing: Taylor Swift's ex tied the knot exactly a fortnight after her wedding. So we're deep diving into whether anyone's really thinking about anyone else right now. Watch Gracie Abrams' New York Times interview ahead of her album drop here.
