It helps that Curtis, 49, is into health and fitness like Aniston, 56, who told in April that she is "the strongest" and "the most in shape" that she has "ever been" in her life. "She thinks he is sexy and takes care of his body. That's important to her," the friend shares. "She works out daily and takes such good care of her body. It's great he does too."

Jennifer Aniston Says Filming 2006's ‘The Break Up' Was ‘Kind Of Cathartic' After Brad Pitt Divorce
Jennifer Aniston knows The Break Up was a case of art imitating life. '[When making the movie], I might have just gone through a separation [that] I'm sure nobody remembers,' Aniston, 56, quipped to Vanity Fair in a YouTube video posted on Monday, August 11, referring to her divorce from Brad Pitt. 'It was kind of cathartic to go right from that [into shooting].' She added, 'When they came to me with the offer, they were a little nervous about making the offer 'cause they thought, 'Is it insensitive? Is it inappropriate?' But, I actually thought [it] was a great opportunity. I knew it would actually benefit me emotionally just as a human being and also serve the script and the character pretty well.' Aniston and Pitt, now 61, were married from 2000 to 2005. The next year, Aniston starred opposite Vince Vaughn in The Break Up, a film following a former couple trying to get the other to move out of their dreamy, shared apartment via outlandish antics. Jennifer Aniston Addresses Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie 'Love Triangle' 'We had one of the best summers shooting this movie,' Aniston recalled to Vanity Fair. 'A lot of this movie was Vince and I, we spent two weeks with the writers … and we would read through the scene, and we would improv the scene. Then, they would just write as fast as they could. This whole movie was a result of those two weeks.' She continued, 'It also allowed for a lot of real conversations that couples have, which I think is why [the movie] hit home for so many people.' After Aniston and Pitt's divorce, they each got remarried. The Morning Show star wed Justin Theroux in 2015, three years before they separated. Pitt, meanwhile, was married to Angelina Jolie from 2014 to 2019. Aniston and Pitt are now dating Jim Curtis and Ines de Ramon, respectively. Everything Jennifer Aniston Has Said About Love, Relationships, Heartbreak and More Speaking about Aniston and Curtis, a source told Us last month: 'They are being super private but have been spending a lot of time together. They are happy and really into each other.' According to the insider, Aniston and hypnotherapist Curtis met through mutual friends and 'really hit it off.' 'They've been hanging out a lot, but very much on the DL at her home in L.A.,' the source added to Us. 'It's very Zen, and she has always been very much into that. They're a good match.' Aniston and Curtis have both remained coy about their blossoming romance, though the actress has 'liked' several of Curtis' Instagram uploads and even posted a copy of his 2024 book, Shift: Quantum Manifestation Guide, in an Instagram carousel earlier this summer. 'I have a real struggle, truthfully, about what to and not to share,' Aniston quipped to Vanity Fair about keeping her love life private. 'And also, social media is a constant struggle for me.'

Will the Oscars Leave ABC? Why the Hulu-Disney+ Merger Could Prevent a Split and Benefit Both Sides
Disney's planned 2026 integration of Hulu into Disney+ could represent more than streaming consolidation — it creates unprecedented opportunities for both Disney and the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences to reshape awards broadcasting for the streaming era. As the Academy's current ABC deal approaches its 2028 expiration, Disney's unified platform offers global reach while the Academy Awards provides Disney with a big launch platform and the prestige of hosting one of the year's biggest events in entertainment. More from Variety Rachel Bloom and Husband Dan Gregor Set Rom-Com Pilot 'Do You Want Kids?' at ABC Oscars Set Launch Date for First FYC Screeners: 'KPop Demon Hunters,' 'Becoming Led Zeppelin' and More (EXCLUSIVE) Czech Oscar Submission Controversy Heats Up as Abuse Drama 'Broken Voices' Accused of 'Fundamental Ethical Failure' and 'Misleading Claims' Disney's recent acquisition of Comcast's last remaining equity interest in Hulu paves the way for Disney and the Academy to come up with creative ways to showcase the Oscars via streaming. The last deal between the sides was set in 2016 — well before the launch of Disney+ and the rest of the streaming explosion. 'If the Oscars stay at ABC, it represents the best of both worlds,' a veteran awards strategist tells Variety. 'Disney aligns with cinema's most prestigious institution, while the Academy gains wider streaming reach.' The March 2025 dual-platform experiment — broadcast on ABC, streamed on Hulu — delivered promising results. The Oscars attracted 19.7 million viewers, a rare 1% increase that bucked years of audience decline. The experiment gave Disney valuable live-streaming data while the Academy reached expanded its reach beyond linear to streaming viewers who want more flexibility in options for watching even a live awards show event. The Academy's broader initiatives — education, philanthropy and the Academy Museum — align with Disney's content ecosystem spanning ABC Signature, 20th Television, FX and streaming services. This also opens doors to year-round Academy programming such as documentaries, behind-the-scenes features and Disney+ exclusive educational content. A long-term and wide-ranging agreement could create yield experimentation opportunities such as interactive Oscar experiences, international filmmaker showcases and member-exclusive content. However, the $100 million question remains: How are talks progressing between the two parties? Both sides have remained tight-lipped. Sources with direct knowledge tell Variety negotiations are 'going well and moving along.' Early speculation indicated that Disney chief Bob Iger wanted to wait on the deal until the Mouse House has set his successor as CEO, which is expected to come early next year. But Academy leaders don't want to wait that long. Both ABC and the Academy declined to comment. Industry insiders predict clarity on ABC and the Oscars' future by year's end. Newly appointed AMPAS President Lynette Howell Taylor, an Oscar-nominated producer for Bradley Cooper's directorial debut 'A Star is Born,' brings deep industry ties from producing the 92nd Academy Awards — the 'Parasite' year. Although she can only serve a one-year term due to board term limits, she would be allowed to return after a two-year hiatus. She would be a valuable asset to bring this over the finish line. Disney's technological infrastructure offers capabilities beyond traditional broadcasters — second-screen experiences, real-time engagement and global distribution. For the Academy, the priority remains reaching younger, more diverse audiences critical for long-term relevance. But sources caution that other media platforms have expressed strong interest to AMPAS in having discussions about Oscars. Despite its long relationship with AMPAS, Disney will have to make them a compelling offer or risk being out-bid by a rival. As negotiations advance, the potential for a continued partnership for the Oscars and Disney — or if a new player will jump into the mix — will be one of the most pressing questions for filmdom insiders in the coming months. Which partner will help define how global audiences engage with prestige movies while preserving the artistic excellence both institutions represent? Only time will tell.
