No Yellowstone storyline has been more dramatic or enduring than star Kevin Costner walking away from his rumored $3 million an episode gig as Josh Dutton ? the frickin? lead! I?ll try to pare it down to the basics: the fifth season of Yellowstone was supposed to be the final of the series, and it was split into two parts. The last episode of the first part of Season 5 aired in January 2023. Then the Hollywood strikes happened, and Kevin hit the horizon to film his passion project. Last Sunday, the first episode of the second part of Season 5 aired, and right off the bat they dealt with the exit of Kevin?s character. A day later, Kevin appeared on The Michael Smerconish Program on SiriusXM, and he was more than a bit shady with the way Taylor Sheridan & Co. wrote off Josh Dutton. Warning: Spoilers ahead!
?Sometimes I?m like just a passenger in my life, you know, there?s a lot going on,? he told host Michael Smerconish. ?So no, I found out about it this morning actually.?
He explained that he was not aware that the shocking death was in store for his character, though he suggested ?a couple? of ?possible endings? for John over the years.
?No, I didn?t see it. I heard it?s a suicide, so that doesn?t make me want to rush to go see it,? Costner said.
But he did defend the team behind Yellowstone despite the fan backlash to his character?s passing.
?Listen, they?re smart people. Whatever they?re doing, they?ll figure it out,? he said.
As Smerconish pressed Costner over whether or not he was ?displeased? with John?s fate, Costner simply said, ?Maybe it?s a red herring. Who knows? They?re very good. And they?ll figure that out.?
He later denied that he quit Yellowstone at all. He explained that he tried to stay on the show despite it undergoing several changes after Season 5, Part 1. But he said he eventually had to back out because he had his own ?obligations? to the crew of ?300 people? working on his passion project, Horizon: An American Saga.
?I didn?t really have to leave anything behind,? he said. ?There was room, but it was difficult for them to keep their schedule. It seemed to be, it was just too difficult for them to do it.?
?I didn?t leave. I didn?t quit the show,? he outrightly clarified at one point of the interview. He said he ?accommodated? them on the unspecified changes they wanted to make to the contracts, but, ?finally when they wanted to change it a third time, because I had my obligations to do, I had 300 people waiting for me, I couldn?t help them anymore. I just simply couldn?t help them. But I didn?t quit the show.?
[From Decider]
Full disclosure: I have never seen an episode of Yellowstone. I do, however, follow the dramatic plot points that have been playing out off screen by the show?s main characters. Like Taylor Sheridan suing Cole Hauser over similar coffee brand logos, or Forrie J. Smith (what a name!) getting himself kicked off a flight for refusing to sit next to a passenger wearing a mask. So all that plus Kevin Costner?s tense, drawn out exit, and oh my gosh these cowboys are such drama queens! On his character?s death: ?They?ll figure it out.? Dude, they killed off your character. What is there to figure out? And I can?t even get into that whole ?I?m just a passenger in my own life? malarkey. But I think my favorite moment is Kevin insisting that he did not quit the show, you guys! He simply decided to stop physically showing up and receive a paycheck for the series he was starring in ? see the difference?! Look, Kevin may be entirely right that they kept switching contracts and schedules so he decided to honor a prior commitment. But the actions he took are still the definition of quitting.
And of course, lest we forget, the passion project he left Yellowstone for was Horizon: An American Saga, eleventy hours of Civil War-era westward expansion. Boy, did Kevin show them. He had 300 people waiting on him to direct it; if only there had been 300 people who wanted to see it in theaters.

Last year, Jessica Simpson gave an interview to Bustle which stressed me out. She was funny and real, as always, but she talked a lot about her business. She and her mom bought back Jessica?s eponymous fashion line, and they put their own money into it, to the point where Jessica was overextended and unable to pay for her lifestyle. She was also going back to country music, trying to settle down in Nashville, and recording another reality show about her life and musical comeback. Basically, it sounded like Jessica was being pulled in twenty directions and her professional life was the most chaotic it had ever been. In that interview, there was very little information about her marriage to Eric Johnson or their three kids. Then, in recent months, there?s been a steady stream of gossip muttering about how Jessica?s marriage is possibly on the rocks, and how Eric has basically disappeared from her social media. Now TMZ says that people close to Jessica have consulted divorce lawyers on her behalf?
Two people directly connected to Jessica Simpson have spoken with 2 divorce lawyers in the last 2 months specifically about Jessicas marriage to Eric Johnson TMZ has learned.
Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ late last month someone close to Jessica went to a Los Angeles divorce attorney and said Jessica was unhappy in her marriage and wanted to arrange a meeting with the attorney and Simpson. We do not know if this was done at Jessicas behest, but were told the message to the lawyer was clear. Were also told up to this point Jessica has not made contact with the lawyer.
And, weve learned someone on Jessicas team made contact with another Los Angeles divorce lawyer regarding matters that were divorce-related. Again, so far were told there has been no follow-through.
Jessica and Eric have been married for 10 years and have 3 children. Jessica posted Monday, Interviews in my Nashville music room where I unearth my singular magic. This comeback is personal, its an apology to myself for putting up with everything I did not deserve. Its unclear what JS was referring to, but people online were buzzing about her marriage.
[From TMZ]
I actually believe that their marriage is on the rocks and probably has been for some time. While Eric was by her side when she went into recovery and got sober, it felt like both her alcoholism and her sobriety put strains on the marriage. In the years since, she?s remained sober, but her professional life has become shambolic. Maybe Eric and Jessica have just outgrown each other, or maybe Jessica like so many women these days is trying to get out while the getting is good, i.e. before Donald Trump and the Republicans take away no-fault divorces.

If you?re a fan of Zendaya and Tom Holland and want to see them in a movie together that doesn?t belong in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, then I have some great news for you! Late last week, Deadline and Variety announced that the couple have both been cast in Christopher Nolan?s next film. Tom?s casting was made public in October, so Zendaya is a new addition. Details about the movie itself are scarce, but Matt Damon and Anne Hathaway are also co-starring in this untitled movie. In addition to directing it, Nolan is also writing the film, which will begin filming in early 2025 and currently has a release date of July 17, 2026.
Zendaya is reuniting with Tom Holland on the big screen, this time at the direction of Christopher Nolan. The Dune and Challengers actress, 28, will be joining Nolans next film at Universal alongside Anne Hathaway, according to Deadline and Variety. The movie, which also stars Matt Damon, will be released in July 2026, the outlets reported.
Details of the films plot are reportedly under wraps.
Holland, 28, and Zendaya, who confirmed their romantic relationship in 2021, have previously teamed up for 2017s Spider-Man Homecoming, 2019s Spider-Man: Far From Home and 2021s Spider-Man: No Way Home.
Zendaya and Hathaway, 41, previously worked together on set of a Bulgari ad in 2022, while Hathaway and Nolans working relationship dates back to 2012?s The Dark Knight Rises and 2014?s Interstellar.
Nolans next movie will mark his follow-up to the 2023 blockbuster Oppenheimer, which also featured a performance from Damon, 54. Multiple outlets, including Deadline, The Hollywood Reporter and Variety, reported last month that Holland was in talks to star in the directors next movie alongside Damon. All three outlets indicated Nolans next movie would begin filming in early 2025.
On Good Morning America last month, Holland said of the Nolan project, I?m incredibly excited. And, obviously, honored, but that?s all I can say because, to be honest, that?s all I know.? The star has also indicated that a new Spider-Man movie will begin filming next year.
Earlier this year, Hathaway spoke with Vanity Fair for a cover story, when she detailed how Nolan, 54, helped her career during a period of online scrutiny in the 2010s. After her Oscar win for 2012s Ls Miserables, Hathaway said many people wouldn?t give her roles because they were so concerned about how toxic my identity had become online.
I had an angel in Christopher Nolan, who did not care about that and gave me one of the most beautiful roles I?ve had in one of the best films that I?ve been a part of, she said of Nolan and Interstellar.
?I don?t know if he knew that he was backing me at the time, but it had that effect,? she added. ?And my career did not lose momentum the way it could have if he hadn?t backed me.?
[From People]
It?s kinda crazy that Tom signed on to do the movie without knowing much about it at all. I mean, I?d do that too because?well, duh. A Nolan film is guaranteed Oscar bait. I?m excited to see what his and Zendaya?s roles will be and hope that they get to interact on screen together as characters that are completely different than we?re used to seeing them play. I?m sure both will kick butt in whatever part they?re cast as. We need more details about the movie, stat!
As for what Anne says regarding Nolan being her ?angel,? I actually finally watched Interstellar for the first time last month, and OMG! I cried so hard throughout several different parts. Anne, Matthew McConaughey, Jessica Chastain, and Michael Caine are all fantastic in it. It?s one of Mr. Rosie?s favorite movies, but I really did not like Inception and thought The Dark Knight Rises was just meh, so I avoided all Nolan movies until Oppenheimer. I feel like I?m now back on the Chris Nolan train. Im excited to watch Anne, Zendaya, and Tom in his next flick.

Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly have been mostly together since they met in 2020. They were drawn to each other immediately and began referring to each other as ?twin flames.? Their relationship certainly has been fiery the engagement ring designed to make Megan bleed if she ever removed it, the very loud breakup in early 2023, the on-and-off status of their engagement for a year, and on and on. Their relationship seemed toxic to me, but I think Megan likes the drama. Well, Megan and MGK are now expecting. This will be their first child together, and fourth overall for Megan.
Congratulations are in order for Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly. Fox took to Instagram on Monday to share that she is pregnant with her fourth child, her first with Machine Gun Kelly (whose real name is Colson Baker). Fox shares three sons with ex-husband Beverly Hills, 90210 star Brian Austin Green. Kelly is also a father to a daughter from another relationship.
?Nothing is ever really lost. welcome back,? Fox wrote alongside an angel emoji and a heart. In the post, Fox can be seen cradling her baby bump while covered in black liquid, tagging Kelly in the photo. In another image, she shares a photo of the positive pregnancy test.
The caption references song lyrics from Kelly?s ?last november,? a song about his and Fox?s past pregnancy loss, which Fox had opened up about in some poems in her book Pretty Boys Are Poisonous.
Appearing on Good Morning America last year, Fox talked about the miscarriage: ?I?ve never been through anything like that in my life. I have three kids, so it was very difficult for both of us and it sent us on a very wild journey together and separately ? trying to navigate, ?What does this mean?? and ?Why did this happen???
In an interview with Women?s Wear Daily, Fox said of the miscarriage, ?That experience was so much harder than I would?ve anticipated it being, and I?ve really analyzed ?why was that? Why was that so difficult for me?? Because when I was younger, I had an ectopic pregnancy, I?ve had other things that I?m not going to say because God forbid the world will be in an uproar. But I?ve been through other similar issues, but not with someone who I was so in love with.?
[From THR]
Congrats to them. As I was looking for photos of them, I realized that they?ve been pretty quiet (as a couple) this year. All of their drama was front-loaded, and once they got back together for good last year, they?ve been keeping their sh-t off people?s radars for the most part, minus some of Megan?s interviews. They were seen on Halloween, where Megan dressed up as Padme and MGK dressed up as Anakin Skywalker. FIERY! Honestly, Meg?s Padme costume slaps, she really pulled it off. And to think, she was actually covering up her bump on Halloween.

Taylor Swift is usually all about autumnal style, all about sweaters and cute cold-weather ensembles. But was unseasonably warm all up and down the East Coast last week, which might explain why Taylor wore this summery frock in November. Taylor was seen going into Chez Margaux in New York on Friday. According to the paparazzi, she arrived with security and met up with Zoe Kravitz and Jerrod Carmichael. Taylor, Jerrod and Zoe were at Chez Margaux for eight hours! Taylor looked a bit worse for wear as she left, so I kind of wonder if she was getting good and drunk after the election. I would not blame her at all if that?s what happened.
Taylor?s dress and purse are Vivienne Westwood, and she wore Aquazurra Twist 95 velvet sandals. As I said, very summery. I was in t-shirts and flip-flops all of last week too. We had two consecutive 80-degree days. Now, do I like any of this on Taylor? Not really. The dress is unflattering and it makes her look knocked up (it?s the way the corset is boned in the midsection). The combination of the dress and her hairstyle is very Germanic to me, like she?s about to serve beer at Oktoberfest.
In case you?re wondering about Chez Margaux, it?s a private, members-only club in the same vein as many exclusive members-only clubs in Europe, specifically England. It?s supposed to have a real European feel and decadent vibes. Inside the club, there?s a Jean-Georges restaurant, a sushi lounge, a caviar-champagne room and nightclub. Taylor has memberships to several of these private clubs in New York. Post-election, my guess is that Chez Margaux was one of the go-to places for sad, rich Democrats to drown their sorrows and socialize with somewhat like-minded people.
Meanwhile, the Grammy nominations also came out on Friday. Taylor?s The Tortured Poets Department got six nominations, including Album of the Year, Pop Vocal Album, and Record and Song of the Year (for ?Fortnight?). Beyonce?s Cowboy Carter got 11 nominations, including noms in the big three: Record, Album and Song of the Year. Y?all know what that means? Beyonce?s once again losing the big Grammys to white artists, probably Taylor.

Russell Brand has been credibly accused of multiple sexual assaults, rapes and more. As the accusations have rolled in, Brand has remade his public persona into an international right-wing grifter, one of the many men selling a particularly toxic and misogynistic worldview to young men, all of it couched in a sort of nouveau Evangelicalism. He?s gone full-throttle with it this year, as various law enforcement agencies build criminal cases against him.
On Election Night, Brand posted a photo of himself holding a red hat which is designed to look like a MAGA hat, but reads ?Make Jesus First Again.? Brand is obviously a Trump supporter they?re both rapists draping themselves in Christianity to con the rubes. But what no one expected was for Nicole Scherzinger to leave a supportive comment on Brand?s post. She wrote: ?Where do I get this hat!!!?? with prayer emoji and a red heart. So? Nicole Scherzinger is a Trump-supporting MAGAt who also thinks a credibly accused and soon-to-be-prosecuted sexual predator is cool for his dumbfk fake Evangelical BS? The way people show their whole asses without even trying. Peep the other receipt of Nicole?s Trumpism too.

A few weeks ago, Kensington Palace breathlessly briefed the media that Prince William planned to hang out with supermodels when he visited Cape Town, South Africa for Earthshot. William definitely wanted people to think that beautiful women regularly beg him to hang out because they love nothing more than angry eggs with sad struggle-beards. As I?ve mentioned a few times, I believed that Kensington Palace basically hires various celebrities and models to ?appear? at Earthshot Prize ceremonies, and it would not surprise me if Earthshot had to pay appearance fees to those celebrities. All because William is a giant loser who is doing all of this to hang out with famous people.
Well, guess what? Heidi Klum was one of the special guests in Cape Town, and she dutifully walked the green carpet at the Earthshot ceremony on Wednesday. When she was asked about her support of Earthshot, she said: ?I have to be honest, I had never heard of this before, and it was really when Prince William?s team came to me and asked me if I would want to join [up] and come to South Africa??
Oops, this is embarrassing! Reporter asks Heidi Klum what Earthshi*t hopes to achieve & she?s forced to confess she?d never heard of it before & only came cause she was approached & asked to travel to South Africa by Willy?s team. #DesperateTimes #WorkShyWilly pic.twitter.com/7fR8digmSN

George Clooney wrote his now-infamous New York Times editorial in July, wherein he insulted President Biden for being too old and said that Biden should step aside and the Democrats should pass over the sitting vice president and hold a mini-primary before the convention. Clooney?s delusion became THE talking point for many Democratic donors as they dreamt of installing someone like Wes Moore or Mark Kelly as the nominee with zero money and zero credibility with average Democratic voters nationwide. Many elected Democrats publicly echoed Clooney?s words, including Nancy Pelosi and a dozen senators. Then, eleven days later, Biden dropped out and endorsed Kamala Harris, and the party quickly coalesced behind her and she raised a billion dollars. When Clooney was in Venice, he was asked about his NYT op-ed, and he said that ?none of that is going to be remembered.? Guess who remembered? Everyone.
Democratic voters would like a quick word with movie star George Clooney. Clooney, the movie star whose New York Times editorial heralded the ouster of President Joe Biden from the 2024 presidential race, was the subject of some frustration after former President Donald Trump secured the nations highest office.
Someone bring me George Clooney, wrote altNOAA, the veteran-led political commentator group launched in response to the Trump administrations so-called gag order on the Environmental Protection Agency. We need to have a talk.
Clooney was among a slew of high-profile Americans who urged Biden to walk away from the race after his lone debate against Trump raised concerns about the 81-year-olds ability to defeat the MAGA Republican.
Biden later claimed he had a cold, but Democratic critics such as Clooney argued that was beside the point considering the stakes if he continued ? and what he said was the likelihood that another candidate could easily defeat Trump.
We?re all so terrified by the prospect of a second Trump term that we?ve opted to ignore every warning sign, Clooney wrote. All of the scary stories that we?re being told about what would happen next are simply not true. In all likelihood, the money in the Biden-Harris coffers could go to help elect the presidential ticket and other Democrats.
[From Raw Story]
The tweets are there, the outrage is there. It will be one of the great political unknowns in American history, ?what if Democrats hadn?t been such bedwetters and stayed in lockstep behind an enormously successful president?? While Biden?s approval rate was very low six months ago or whatever, I maintain that most people were not paying attention to Biden or anything else before Democratic turncoats began screaming about his age. Democrats have to reckon with how they mishandled all of that, because they looked disorganized and incredibly eager to stab Biden in the back. But yeah? Clooney can fk all the way off.

Keanu Reeves has had a busy few weeks of movie anniversary celebrations. Last month, he was joined by Sandra Bullock and director Jon de Bont for a 30th anniversary screening of Speed. On November 3, it was time to celebrate the John Wick?s 10th anniversary. At the event, Keanu and his co-star Ian McShane did a panel with producer Erica Lee and co-director Chad Stahelski. During the panel, Keanu talked a bit about his experience filming the action movie, in which he reportedly did 90% of his own stunts. He worked so hard on those fight scenes that he even threw up ?a couple of times.?
Moderator Grae Drake asked Reeves how far he was pushed to play the titular hitman who gets revenge on the Russian mobsters responsible for the death of his dog.
Reeves said the experience was a ?gift,? adding, ?I had so many wonderful teachers and guidance and worked with so many talented actors, actresses and stunt people in the sense of its such a dance and collaboration and cooperation. So theres a couple of times where you throw up or puke or whatever, but thats what makes it good!?
McShane also praised Reeves? willingness to go the extra mile.
?He pushes the envelope all the time. So when your leading actors says, ?Wed like do another one,? and its raining for the seventh day in a row outside ? and youre standing there, whatever. And you go, ?Well, Keanus doing it. Here we are. Here we go,? ? said McShane.
The movie was a hit, and launched three sequels, which have collectively made more than $1 billion globally. The films have also become famous for their violent and involved fight scenes, including one in which Keanu?s Wick shoves a sharpened pencil in the eye and ear of a foe.
When moderator Drake quipped that ?nobodys ever looked at a pencil the same way again,? Reeves responded: ?You shouldnt. Because they work!?
[From People]
I am impressed but not at all surprised by Keanus work ethic. Its insane that he pushed himself so hard that he threw up, though. That is hardcore, especially because he was 49 years old when they filmed the first movie. This reminds me of Halle Berry?s stories about getting broken bones and being knocked out three times on set. Halle was in John Wick: Chapter 3 when she broke three ribs, so we know those action scenes and stunts are definitely intense to film. It sounds like Keanu really is just as lovely, hardworking, and professional as he appears. He?ll be back for John Wick: Chapter 5, which surprised me, given the ending of the fourth movie.
Anyway, I love the John Wick movies. I didn?t think I?d be into it so wasn?t really watching it when Mr. Rosie put the fist movie on. I started paying attention midway through, though, and was like, ?All this for a dog?? After that, I was all in. Did you know that Eva Longoria is the reason why the first movie was even able to be made in the first place? They were short on budget, so at the very last minute, Eva provided the additional six million dollars needed to fund it. She still gets residuals from it, too.

Harrison Ford genuinely loves to work, but I think he?s avoided working at various points in his career simply because he hates promoting his projects. If every promotional spot was, like, the Graham Norton Show, Harrison would probably be more involved in promo. But still, he tries to play the game and when he doesn?t feel like it, he goes full curmudgeon. Harrison is currently promoting the new season of Shrinking, one of his few forays into episodic television. He enjoys the show, he enjoys his character, he loves the writing, and so he?s actually giving interviews to promote it. He recently chatted with GQ, and I was charmed by this piece:
How ?Shrinking? fans interact with him: ?What they have to say is really unusual in my experience. What they have to say is thank you. They say, ?Thank you. We love this show.? They don?t want anything. They don?t want an autograph, they don?t want a picture. They just want to share their pleasure in the experience. That?s something different to what the usual exchange is with a stranger.?
His great run of ?dad thrillers? in the 1990s: ?It was a very different period in our culture. It was a very different period in the movie business. There was a discernible zeitgeist, and the movies seemed to capture that. It was a street that ran both ways?there was a very close connection between movies and the culture. It was a time when many of our extraordinary filmmakers were still working, the Pollacks and Pakulas and even some guys whose names didn?t start with a P. I was lucky enough to have come up in that period of time, and so I got the chance to work with those guys. To me, that was the extraordinary thing about that time?that I had these incredible guys to work with. It was a great period of my life and I?m really grateful for it.
How those kinds of ?adult movies? have basically disappeared: ?Actually I feel bad for us. I feel bad that we don?t have these stories around us in the world. I mean, it seems this is a particularly bizarre period of human history, I believe. I certainly hope. I hope that we?ll get through it and begin talking to each other instead of at each other. We will begin to work our way through the international issues and the political issues and all this sh-t soup we?re living in?You can?t sit around talking about how great it was in the past. You?ve just got to make something better in the present. That?s all. I?m not that guy.
On the Red Hulk stuff for Marvel: ?I mean, this is the Marvel universe and I?m just there on a weekend pass. I?m a sailor new to this town. Show me the way to go home. I understand the appeal of other kinds of films besides the kind we made in the ?80s and ?90s. I don?t have anything general to say about it. It?s the condition our condition is in, and things change and morph and go on. We?re silly if we sit around regretting the change and don?t participate. I?m participating in a new part of the business that, for me at least, I think is really producing some good experiences for an audience. I enjoy that.
How he chooses his projects at this point of his life: ?It?s the quality of writing. It doesn?t matter what the genre is. It doesn?t matter whether it?s on television or in movies. It?s the writing, it?s the story, it?s the character, it?s the emotional experience for an audience or for myself. It?s people that I have some feeling that I want to work with, or it?s a quality opportunity. I suppose I should be sitting on my ass, but I actually love working.?
Getting young people involved in aviation: ?It?s a great job and it?s become a field where there?s a great demand for pilots. We?ve been talking about the failure to train American pilots. America trains more foreign pilots than they do American pilots. I?m not being xenophobic here. It?s not about having to fly with American pilots. It?s just that we?ve known for a long time that we needed to train more pilots, and we have done that successfully now. Pilots are making a wonderful living when, 15 years ago, they weren?t doing so well at the beginning of their careers. But it?s a great career, and I just encourage people that are interested in it to give it a go.
On the ?death of the movie star? conversation: ?Oh, I think it?s rubbish. I don?t think the question is whether or not there are any movie stars. There?s wonderful actors coming up every day. Whether or not they become movie stars is really not the point. If movies need stars, they will find them. I?ve never fking understood being a movie star. I?m an actor. I tell stories. I?m part of a group of people who work together, collaborate on telling stories. I?m an assistant storyteller. That?s what I am.
[From GQ]
I love what he says about movie stars and the great people coming up that was incredibly generous of him, even if I think it?s true that there are not many real ?movie stars? left. He never thought of himself as a movie star though he always wanted to be an actor, a storyteller, an artistic collaborator. Harrison?s run in the ?90s really was unmatched he made banger after banger, films for adults and some of the greatest dad movies of all time. The thing about Marvel films is one of the better explanations I?ve heard from an actor joining the comic-book movie ranks. He?s just like? this is what was out there, so I?m giving it a shot, maybe someone will enjoy it. I also didn?t know that America trains more foreign pilots than American pilots??
