'Never, its just fine the way it is': Bob Gale on return of Back To The Future television series
Washington DC [US], April 29 (ANI): Screenwriter Bob Gale has quashed any possible speculations of the creation of 'Back To The Future' television show after the successful run of the sci-fi trilogy, reported People.
At a recent Universal Fan Fest Night, Bob Gale opened up about the possibility of a 'Back To The Future' television show and said that they are not looking forward to any sequel, prequel or spin-off to the movie.
"I mean, it's like they know in every interview people say, 'Oh Bob, when is there going to be a Back to the Future 4?' Never," said Bob Gale.
"'When is there going to be a prequel?' Never. 'When is there going to be a spinoff?' Never. It's just fine the way it is. It's not perfect, but as Bob Zemeckis used to say, 'It's perfect enough.'" added Gale.
The creators of the movie are adamant about not returning with any other instalments of the 'Back To The Future' film. However, the screenwriter jokingly added that a life-threatening situation can change his thoughts on developing another instalment of the film.
"If the juggernaut of corporate America or corporate international mishigas says, 'If you don't agree to this, we're going to kill your children,' alright, well, no, we don't want our children killed,'" he joked.
Gale also expressed gratitude to director and producer Steven Spielberg for respecting their wish to have no more 'Back To the Future' movies.
"But [executive producer] Steven Spielberg, of course, he's got to sign off on it too. And Steven, just like Steven won't allow another E.T., he totally respects the fact that we don't want any more Back to the Future. He gets it and always stood behind that. And thank you, Steven," added Gale.
The 'Back To The Future' franchise starred Michael J Fox and Christopher Lloyd in the lead roles. The screenplay of the trilogy was written by Bob Gale and was directed by Robert Zemeckis. (ANI)

Angelina Jolie Chooses Quality Time With Kids Over A Big Party On 50th Birthday
Last Updated: Angelina Jolie has changed her view on ageing over the years and feels calm about growing older. Angelina Jolie opted to celebrate her 50th birthday on June 4 with a small and private gathering instead of a big Hollywood party. Jolie, who was last seen in Maria, decided that a quiet celebration was the best way to ring in her special day. The Eternals star reportedly spent time with her six children, Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Knox and Vivienne. A source close to Jolie told People that she 'seems genuinely excited and happy about turning 50. She doesn't want a big party." The insider added that 'So much of her 40s were rough. She's in a much better place now. The kids are amazing and thriving. There is less family drama." The source further mentioned that Angelina Jolie 'is embracing the idea of turning 50 and feels more grounded than ever. She's not shying away from getting older, in fact, she's leaning into it. Angie sees ageing in a really positive light, especially after losing her mom so young. She feels calm, inspired, and she's excited about what's ahead." The last ten years have been very difficult for Angelina Jolie due to her acrimonious divorce proceedings with Brad Pitt. After a long relationship, Jolie and Pitt tied the knot in 2014. Two years later, they separated after the actress accused her Mr and Mrs Smith co-star of being abusive to her and their six children during a private plane flight. The former couple were granted a divorce in December 2024 after an eight-year-long legal battle. During this time, Pitt found support in his girlfriend, Ines de Ramon. According to People, de Ramon has helped him stay calm and feel supported through the long process. As per sources, 'There's no pressure between them. She gives him space when he needs it, but is always there when it counts. Ines has brought a lot of peace into Brad's life. Their relationship has been easy and natural." Coming back to Angelina Jolie, the star was recently seen at the Cannes Film Festival in France, where she attended the Trophee Chopard dinner. She also showed up at the world premiere of Eddington, starring Emma Stone. First Published:

Did Romeo Beckham and Kim Turnbull Break Up Because of Family Rift With David-Victoria?
Romeo Beckham and Kim Turnbull have broken up after dating for several months. The couple, who made their relationship Instagram official in November 2024, reportedly ended things in recent weeks. Their split now comes amid reported tension within the Beckham family, particularly involving Romeo's older brother, Brooklyn Beckham, and his wife Nicola Peltz. Romeo Beckham first shared romantic photos with Turnbull on his Instagram Stories, followed by a main feed post that included her during a Beckham family trip to New York City. According to PEOPLE, a source shared that there have been ongoing issues between Brooklyn and Nicola, as well as the rest of the Beckham family. The pair were notably absent from David Beckham's 50th birthday celebration in May 2025. "While the pair have been noticeably absent from the Beckhams' recent functions, the relationship is definitely not beyond repair. They love and are always there for him. They're just hurt and disappointed that he's now playing no part in family life," a source close to the situation told PEOPLE. Another insider revealed that Brooklyn and Nicola decided to skip David's birthday party due to Kim Turnbull's presence. "Brooklyn didn't want to be in the same room as her, and he told his dad that. But David opted to have Kim there over Nicola," the insider said. Brooklyn Beckham and Kim Turnbull's past clarified While some speculated a past relationship between Brooklyn and Kim Turnbull, Cruz Beckham responded to an Instagram comment, stating that Brooklyn and Kim never dated. Another source backed this claim, telling PEOPLE that the pair were never romantically involved. A fifth source added that Turnbull wasn't present at all family events, saying that there were several events where Kim Turnbull wasn't present, suggesting that Brooklyn and Nicola could have attended those if they wanted. Earlier this month, PEOPLE reported that Brooklyn and Nicola had hired British lawyer Jenny Afia, from Schillings law firm, who has also represented Meghan Markle and Prince Harry.

'Going to work ready for war': Sophia Bush reveals alleged abuse on TV set
Washington [US], June 5 (ANI): Actress Sophia Bush has shared her harrowing experience of alleged physical and emotional abuse on the set of a television series. As per People magazine, in a candid conversation with Monica Lewinsky on her podcast 'Reclaiming,' Bush revealed the traumatic impact it had on her life. Bush described joining a TV show after her nine-year run on 'One Tree Hill' as a dream come true, but it turned into a nightmare. She alleged that she suffered "every kind" of abuse at the hands of someone old enough to be her father. Bush said she had to be constantly on guard, likening it to "going to work ready for war all the time," as quoted by People magazine. The actress recounted experiencing physical symptoms like hives, hair loss, and weight fluctuations. She also struggled with anxiety, becoming defensive and withdrawn. Bush said she couldn't bear to be touched or looked at, especially in the work environment. Bush eventually left the show in April 2017, months before the '#MeToo' movement gained momentum. She revealed that she was given two options: change her environment or have her character written off. Bush chose to leave, citing a need to respect herself in a situation where she didn't feel respected. In October 2017, Bush received a call from an executive apologising for their inaction. The executive acknowledged that the show had "just made it out of that unscathed." While Bush didn't directly name the show, her experience bears a resemblance to her time on 'Chicago P.D.,' where she played Erin Lindsay from 2014 to 2017. Bush previously opened up about her departure from the series, citing a need to prioritise her well-being. (ANI)
