Top stars and directors head to Venice for high-powered 2025 festival
Hollywood stars, Oscar-winning directors, Asian heavyweights and European auteurs will vie for top honours at this year's stellar Venice Film Festival, all looking to make a splash at the start of the awards season. Running from August 27 to September 6, the 82nd edition of the world's oldest film festival will showcase a rich array of movies that spans psychological thrillers, art-house dramas, genre-bending experiments, documentaries, and buzzy studio-backed productions. Among the leading A-listers expected to walk the Venice Lido's red carpet are Julia Roberts, Emma Stone, George Clooney, Dwayne Johnson, Emily Blunt, Andrew Garfield, Oscar Isaac, Cate Blanchett and Amanda Seyfried. Netflix returns A who's-who of global directors will also be premiering their latest pictures at the 11-day event, including U.S. filmmakers Kathryn Bigelow, Jim Jarmusch, Noah Baumbach and Benny Safdie, alongside top Europeans Yorgos Lanthimos, Paolo Sorrentino, and Laszlo Nemes, and Asia's Park Chan-wook and Shu Qi. Netflix, which skipped Venice last year, returns in full force in 2025 with a trio of headline-grabbing titles, including Guillermo del Toro's 'Frankenstein', a new take on the classic horror tale starring Isaac, Jacob Elordi and Mia Goth. Baumbach's comedy-drama 'Jay Kelly', starring Clooney, Adam Sandler and Laura Dern, is also in the main competition and on the Netflix slate, alongside the geopolitical thriller 'A House of Dynamite', with Idris Elba and Rebecca Ferguson, and directed by Bigelow, who won an Oscar in 2010 for 'The Hurt Locker'. Venice fires the starting gun for the awards season, with films premiering on the Lido in the last four years collecting more than 90 Oscar nominations and winning almost 20, making it the place to be seen for actors, producers and directors alike. In the past nine editions of the Oscars, the award for Best Actress or Best Actor has gone eight times to the protagonists of films first seen in Venice, including Stone for her role in 'Poor Things' in 2024. Fighters and families Stone returns to Venice this year, teaming up again with 'Poor Things' director Lanthimos in an offbeat satire, 'Bugonia'. The indie icon of U.S. cinema, Jim Jarmusch, will be showing his 'Father Mother Sister Brother', a three-part tale exploring fractured families with a cast that includes Blanchett, Vicky Krieps, Adam Driver and Tom Waits. Another U.S. film getting its first outing at Venice is the MMA fighter biopic 'The Smashing Machine', starring Johnson and Blunt, and directed by Benny Safdie. A very different biopic is 'The Testament of Ann Lee' - a musical take on the life of the radical 18th-century Shaker leader, which stars Seyfried and is directed by Norway's Mona Fastvold. European auteurs are well-represented, with Paolo Sorrentino's 'La Grazia', starring Toni Servillo, selected as the festival's opening film, while Hungary's Nemes presents the family drama 'Orphan' and France's Francois Ozon showcases his retelling of Albert Camus' celebrated novel 'The Stranger'. Another French director, Olivier Assayas, will premiere 'The Wizard of the Kremlin' – a political thriller about the rise of Vladimir Putin, starring Paul Dano and Alicia Vikander, with Jude Law playing the Russian leader. Tragic story of palestinian girl One film that looks certain to raise emotions is Kaouther Ben Hania's 'The Voice of Hind Rajab', which uses original emergency service recordings to tell the story of a 5-year-old Palestinian girl who was killed in Gaza in 2024 after being trapped for hours in a vehicle targeted by Israeli forces. 'I think it is one of the films that will make the greatest impression, and hopefully (won't be) controversial,' said the festival's artistic director, Alberto Barbera, his voice trembling as he recalled the movie. Among the battery of films being shown out of competition is Luca Guadagnino's MeToo-themed psychological drama 'After The Hunt', starring Ayo Edebiri, Garfield and Julia Roberts, who will be making her red carpet debut at Venice, Barbera said. The jury for the main competition will be chaired by U.S. director Alexander Payne. He will be joined by fellow directors Stephane Brize, Maura Delpero, Cristian Mungiu, Mohammad Rasoulof, and the actresses Fernanda Torres and Zhao Tao.

Doja Cat just finished her album, Vie. But what she said next left fans puzzled
Doja Cat has confirmed her new album Vie is finished, but longtime fans shouldn't expect a repeat of Scarlet. In a cryptic French-language post shared to X, 'L'album est complet 🥐', the artist hinted at a radical shift in tone, language, and even voice. The croissant emoji only fueled speculation that this new era leans heavily into French or European artistic influences. The album's title, Vie (meaning 'life' in French), reflects a more introspective phase in the rapper-singer's evolution. She's already teased tracks like 'Lipstain,' 'Jealous Type,' 'Acts of Service,' and 'Cards,' each of which point to a personal, emotionally layered narrative. This time around, Doja says she's not chasing chart positions or streaming success. In recent interviews, she revealed that Vie was made for creative satisfaction, not commercial reward. 'I'm not trying to make a hit,' she's said bluntly, distancing herself from the metrics-driven mindset of mainstream pop. One of the biggest changes is her voice, literally. Doja admitted she used to feel 'limited' by her vocal range but now feels more confident than ever after years of quiet training. This evolution is expected to show in the album's sonic complexity and technical risks, with more focus on vocal layering and unique production. Though Vie doesn't have a release date yet, the rollout has already started with subtle clues and statements that seem designed to confuse and intrigue fans. If Scarlet was a pop project with an edge, Vie promises to be something else entirely: unexpected, artistic, and potentially polarizing.

Jennifer Lopez stuns fans with a not-so-appropriate performance at Tenerife concert
Jennifer Lopez surprised audiences during her performance at Cook Music Fest in Tenerife on Saturday, July 19, as part of her Up All Night tour—her first in six years. The 55-year-old artist drew attention for her bold stage choreography, which included a series of sexually suggestive positions that some fans described as "X-rated." Lopez, who finalized her divorce from actor and filmmaker Ben Affleck earlier this year, appeared unbothered by recent personal challenges as she delivered a high-energy set. During her routine, she was seen straddling a dancer, interacting suggestively with two others, singing on all fours, and at one point, sitting on a performer's shoulders in a provocative pose. While some viewers expressed concern over the explicit nature of the show—suggesting it was inappropriate for a mother of two—others defended the star's freedom to express herself creatively. Comparisons were drawn to pop singer Sabrina Carpenter, who has also faced scrutiny for risqué performances. In addition to her choreography, Lopez debuted a new song during the show, which many fans interpreted as a reflection on her relationship with Affleck. Introducing the track, Lopez shared that it was inspired during a sleepless night. Lyrics included lines such as, "The love I want, the love I need, it starts in me," and "Thank you for the scars you left on my heart," pointing to themes of heartbreak, growth, and resilience. The song also seemed to address closure, with Lopez singing, "Now watch me climb out of the wreckage of you," and thanking the unnamed ex-partner for the pain that led to her transformation.
