Colleen Hoover's "Verity" Sets May 2026 Release
Amazon MGM Studios' film adaptation of the Colleen Hoover-penned psychological thriller 'Verity' will be released in theaters on May 15, 2026.
The cast stars Anne Hathaway, Dakota Johnson, Josh Hartnett, Ismael Cruz Cordóva, Brady Wagner, and more.
Michael Showalter directs the pic from a screenplay by Nick Antosca, who wrote the current script following the previous work of Hoover and Lauren Levine; Hillary Seitz; Angela LaManna; and Will Honley and April Maguire.
The film's official logline reads: 'Struggling writer Lowen Ashleigh is hired as a ghostwriter for renowned author Verity Crawford under mysterious circumstances, but her assignment takes a dark turn after discovering chilling autobiographical notes. Faced with a series of deadly family secrets, Lowen struggles to separate fiction from reality, while also blurring the lines with Verity's husband, Jeremy.'
Sources close to the project say the release date was selected to provide counterprogramming for the male-skewing tentpoles also debuting in May, including 'The Mandalorian & Grogu' and 'Avengers: Doomsday.'
Antosca, Alex Hedlund, Stacey Sher, Showalter, Jordana Mollick, Hathaway, and Hoover are producers, while Johnson, Lauren Levine, and Kerry Orent serve as executive producers.
Production companies attached to 'Verity' are Eat the Cat, Semi-Formal Productions, Shiny Penny, Somewhere Pictures and Heartbones Entertainment.
'Verity' was self-published by Hoover in 2018 and was later acquired by Grand Central Publishing in 2021. It has spent months on the New York Times Best Sellers list, selling more than one million copies in 2023 alone.
The film adaptation follows hot on the heels of 'It Ends With Us,' the movie version of Hoover's other No. 1 bestseller. That film, starring Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, was the sleeper hit of the summer, earning more than $346 million at the worldwide box office.

"A Quiet Place 3" Lands 2027 Release Date, John Krasinski Returns as Director
Yara Sameh John Krasinski is returning as the director, writer, and producer of 'A Quiet Place Part III.' The cast is not confirmed at this time, so it's unclear if Emily Blunt, Noah Jupe and Millicent Simmonds, who co-starred with Krasinski in the first film, will return. Plot details of the sequel are being kept under wraps, but we're going out on a limb to guess that they involve alien creatures with very sharp hearing, and human beings who have to evade them on tiptoe while using their inside voices. Paramount Pictures will release 'A Quiet Place Part III' in theaters on July 9, 2027. Krasinski and Allyson Seeger's Sunday Night Productions, which has a first-look deal with the studio, is producing along with Platinum Dunes. Krasinski directed the first two films in the 'Quiet Place' franchise, with Michael Sarnoski directing the 2024 spin-off 'A Quiet Place: Day One.' The series has grossed over $900 million. Krasinski also directed the family comedy 'IF' for Paramount, but the film was a box office disappointment. Krasinski got his start on the NBC sitcom 'The Office.' He also starred in the Amazon Prime series 'Jack Ryan' and appeared in such films as 'It's Complicated,' 'Promised Land' and '13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi.' He most recently starred opposite Natalie Portman in 'Fountain of Youth' for Apple Original Films. Krasinski announced his involvement on the third 'Quiet Place' film on Instagram. The news comes as Paramount Global, the studio's parent company, is finalizing its sale to Skydance — a deal that is expected to close next week. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results

Apple Ships 3 Bln iPhones
Rana Atef Apple announced that it has shipped its three billionth iPhone. Tim Cook announced the news during a call for the company's third-quarter earnings. The company released the first iPhone in 2007 and sold its billionth iPhone in 2016. So, the audience can guess that the company has shipped its two billionth sometime in 2021, and now, only four years later, it has reached the new milestone. Apple's CEO said the iPhone enjoyed a double-digit growth in the third quarter and that the company earned $94 billion in revenue, up 10 percent year over year. Apple expert Mark Gurman suggested that iPhone sales over the past quarter were driven by people who bought one out of fear that the device would be out of their reach in the future due to Trump's tariffs. Apple is set to announce its next iPhone models in the coming weeks, probably in September. read more UAE's Lunar Mission Delayed to Tomorrow Twitter Lifts Trump's Account Ban Scientists Find Evidence Of 10،000 Black Holes Surrounding The Center Of The Milky Way Galaxy Greenhouse In Antarctica Able To Grow Vegetables Without Soil Or Sunlight Moving Over China: U.S. Is Again Home to World's Speediest Supercomputer Technology The 10 most expensive cars in the world Technology Top 10 fastest cars in the world Technology Lasers Could Make Computers 1 Million Times Faster Technology Smart technology taking control of our lives News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results

Margot Robbie in Talks to Lead & Produce Tim Burton's "Attack of the Fifty Foot Woman"Remake
Yara Sameh Margot Robbie is in early negotiations to join Tim Burton's remake of 'Attack of the Fifty Foot Woman' for Warner Bros. If the deal closes, Robbie would produce the remake with LuckyChap partners Tom Ackerley and Josey McNamara with an eye to star. News broke last February that Burton was working on a reimagining of the 1958 science-fiction horror movie, which follows a wealthy heiress who grows into a giant after an alien encounter and exacts revenge on her cheating husband. 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' creator planned to direct, as well as produce alongside Andrew Mittman and Tommy Harper. Kai Dolbashian serves as executive producer. 'Gone Girl' writer Gillian Flynn penned a first draft of the screenplay, but has since exited the project due to other commitments. The producing team is currently searching for a new writer, and Robbie's involvement as the lead actor would depend on the final version. The potential collaboration would be a union between two of Warner Bros.' most successful recent collaborators. The studio was eager to continue doing business with LuckyChap following the success of the Oscar-winning 'Barbie' — the highest-grossing movie of 2023 with $1.45 billion globally, as well as the biggest film in the studio's 100-year history — and signed the company to a multi-year, first-look feature film deal to collaborate on future projects. Robbie, a three-time Oscar nominee, next stars in WB's 'Wuthering Heights,' Emerald Fennell's adaptation of Emily Brontë's classic, which hits theaters next February, and LuckyChap is also developing an 'Ocean's Eleven' movie at the studio, with 'Twisters' director Lee Isaac Chung in talks to direct. Likewise, in 2024, the studio enjoyed big success with Burton's 'Beetlejuice Beetlejuice,' the long-awaited sequel to his 1988 classic 'Beetlejuice.' Despite debuting nearly 40 years after the original, the poltergeist scared up a strong $452 million at the global box office. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results
