Angelina Jolie and Salma Hayek shock travelers boarding flight in Mexico City
The two A-listers, who struck up a friendship while appearing in the 2021 Marvel film Eternals, were spotted by passengers at the airport preparing for a flight to Veracruz on the Mexican coast.
As onlookers gazed on in shock, Angelina, 50, and Salma, 58, were filmed deep in conversation while waiting for their flight. They were still chatting after landing and were spotted enjoying a meal together at a cafe in the airport.
Despite previously claiming not to have many friends in Hollywood, Angelina and Salma have struck up a very close relationship since meeting a few years ago.
They first bonded while working on the superhero movie Eternals, with Angelina playing Thena and Hayek cast as Ajak.
They later went on to join forces once again when Angelina appointed Salma in the 2024 movie Without Blood.
During an interview at last year's Toronto Film Festival, Salma gushed about the pair's friendship, saying they've become 'like family'.
She told People: 'We do things together as a family. We hang out with the kids but also by ourselves.
'I always find it super-inspiring. A friend was telling me, "It's the same life whether you laugh or cry". And it's nice to have a friend where you can laugh and cry... and feel always safe.'

One fan raved in a five-star Google review: 'Ant-Man is BY FAR one of the most entertaining, funny, and heartwarming movies in the MCU - I'm thinking it's my favorite! 'I went into the movie not expecting much but Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) was so easy to like and hilarious. 'My family had such a great time watching this underrated classic. It was fast-paced, had good character development, a simple storyline, didn't take itself too seriously but managed to HIT A HOME RUN, and did I mention funny as hell?' Another gushed: 'I love this movie with all my heart. It's funny, interesting, heroic and one of the funniest at Marvel Studios.'

It has comedy and the character development is amazing!' And a final review said: 'I recommend this movie cause it's just so darn funny!

Shirtless Zac Efron shows off his muscular physique while enjoying a day out golfing with his ripped brother Dylan as fans go WILD in the comments
Shirtless Zac Efron showed off his muscular physique as he enjoyed a day out golfing with his ripped lookalike brother Dylan on Tuesday. The High School Musical actor, 37, sent his followers into a frenzy with the clip as he had his ripped body on display. He was joined by influencer and producer Dylan, 33, as they showed off their putting skills and zoomed around the course on a golf buggy. Fans were loving the content, writing in the comments: 'So happy there's not a limit on how many times Instagram allows me to replay a video...', 'What kind of a fever dream am I in!', 'Everyone promise me we will never forget how fine Zac Efron is.' 'I volunteer as caddie'. Others joked that the golf course set up was similar to one iconic scene in High School Musical 2 which sees Zac's character Troy Bolton singing Bet On It and dramatically strutting across the green. They penned: 'Wasted opportunity to not use bet on it as the song!, while other shared gifs of the film moment. Back in May of this year Dylan hinted at a major career change as he joined his Traitors co-stars at Variety's FYC TV Fest in Hollywood. The star, works behind the scenes as a production coordinator and has been involved in many projects, including American Sniper, Live by Night and Ready Player One. In January, he made his reality TV debut on the third season of The Traitors US, which saw Dylan and his fellow Faithfuls vote to end the game and split $204,300 (roughly £153,600). In May, appearing on stage at the Meet the Makers event with his co-stars Rob Mariano, Dolores Catania, and Bob the Drag Queen, the star teased that fans could be seeing more of him. When asked by host Emily Longeretta if it was an immediate 'yes' to sign up to the reality competition show, he replied: 'No, it wasn't. Mine was just I'd never done reality show before. Fans were loving the content, writing in the comments: 'So happy there's not a limit on how many times Instagram allows me to replay a video...' Others joked that the golf course set up was similar to one iconic scene in High School Musical 2 which sees Zac's character Troy Bolton singing Bet On It and dramatically strutting across the green 'So, like I've been offered some auditions for shows, like Survivor and stuff, and, like, I've always turned them down.' He continued: 'So this was the first time where I'm like, all right, I think I can do this. And so it took a little while, but I said yes.' 'You turned down Survivor?' Emily asked. Dylan clarified: 'No I wasn't like offered Survivor. It was like, 'Hey we think you'd be good, when do you want to audition?' 'It was like stuff like that, like Love Islands and stuff, which I couldn't do. So then this one was like, all right, I might be ready.' Prior to appearing on The Traitors, which came to an end on March 6, his older brother sang high praise about him. Zac previously said he was confident that his younger brother would win and beat all of his costars. 'I think he's going to win,' Zac said in an interview with Entertainment Tonight in June 2024. 'He's really good at games, and I just have a good feeling about it.' He also added that Dylan has always had luck on his side when it comes to gambling and games. 'He is just the best at games. Growing up, he was a first-roll-[at-Yahtzee]-kind-of-dude.'

Fantastic Four: First Steps sees Marvel get its mojo back, critics say
Fantastic Four: First Steps is helping Marvel to "get its mojo back", according to early reviews of the new superhero reboot. The 37th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is "Marvel's best film in a decade", the Telegraph said, while the Guardian commented the studio had "regained its buoyancy".But other critics brought the returning comic book superheroes' feet back down to earth. The Independent suggested the retro-looking film is "no disaster – but it's no Superman, either".The latest attempt at a Fantastic Four reboot follows a 2015 adaptation which flopped at the box office and was poorly received by critics. The new iteration stars Pedro Pascal as Mister Fantastic, Vanessa Kirby as The Invisible Woman, Joseph Quinn as the Human Torch and Ebon Moss-Bachrach as The in the 1960s, it sees the heroes forced to defend Earth from a hungry space god named Galactus, played by Ralph Ineson, and the Silver Surfer, played by Julia Garner. US publication Variety was impressed, running the headline: "Marvel gets its Mojo back with a satisfying retro-styled reboot."Reviewer Peter Debrudge said it was right to scale back from "the overcrowded feel of recent offerings", adding: "There's relief to be had from a Marvel movie in which you needn't have carefully studied multiple other movies to make sense of what's happening."Gender-swapping the Silver Surfer, he noted, is "the biggest - and likely most controversial" change to the story, yielding an "intriguingly flirtatious dynamic with Johnny".He concluded: "True to its subtitle, the film feels like a fresh start. And like this summer's blockbuster Superman reboot over at DC, that could be just what it takes to win back audiences suffering from superhero exhaustion." The Telegraph's Robbie Collin offered four stars, saying the reboot "feels like the start of an exciting new chapter for Marvel"."First Steps is earnest, colourful, upbeat," he said, "and asks its audience to bring nothing to the table beyond a willingness to be wowed."It makes the viewer "wish that Marvel had reached this point years ago", he opined."Why do Pedro Pascal's elastic-limbed Mister Fantastic, Vanessa Kirby's Invisible Woman, Ebon Moss-Bachrach's rock-skinned Thing and Joseph Quinn's fiery Human Torch make such a refreshingly human quartet of heroes?"It's partly because the casting allows all four to play to their strengths – and as the team's steadfast matriarch, Kirby is especially good value – but also because the film keeps putting them into the sort of human spaces where human behaviour naturally occurs." In a three-star review, the Guardian's Peter Bradshaw explained that "in a retro-futurist version of early 1960s New York, Mr Fantastic and Sue Storm are living together as a dysfunctional family with the Human Torch and the Thing - with a baby on the way."The result, he wrote, "hangs together as an entertaining spectacle in its own innocent self-enclosed universe of fantasy wackiness, where real people actually read the comic books that have made mythic legends of the real Four".He continued: "I have expressed my dissatisfaction recently with superhero films which have to finish with AI cities collapsing – and, yes, this is what happens here, but at least this finale emerges from the established story premise, and works well with the tone of uncomplicated fun."Adding: "Overall a very silly movie - though it's keeping the superhero genre aloft." 'Embrace wonder again' The Independent's Clarisse Loughrey also dished out three stars, underlining how actress Kirby "is a standout as Susan Storm and the set design dazzles", but that "this franchise-starter is still weighed down by the usual unfunny banter and pathological Marvel aversion to risk".She wrote: "It's Reed and Sue's marriage that also births one of the most fascinating ethical quandaries Marvel's ever put to screen – and, yet, it's somehow happily solved about three scenes later."Truly, angst isn't on the cards for Marvel as of now. And it's nice, admittedly, to see the genre embrace wonder once again." Director Matt Shakman has said his latest attempt to bring the comic book heroes to the big screen exists in its "own universe" so fans need not worry if they haven't seen all or any of the previous 36 MCU Malkovich had been due to appear in the film as Red Ghost, however, Shakman told Variety, it was "heart-breaking" to ultimately have to leave his scenes on the cutting room floor. Over the weekend, Marvel boss Kevin Feige teased that the studio has "a seven-year plan", which includes the release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day in summer 2026 followed by two Avengers told Hollywood trade publications including Variety that the expanded universe and its many overlapping characters and plotlines "used to be fun" but lately may have left some viewers wondering "do I have to know everything about all of these [characters]?"He detailed why he liked rivals DC Comics' recent hit Superman movie "a lot". "I love that you just jump right into it. You don't know who Mister Terrific is? Tough, you'll figure it out. This is a fully fleshed out world."For BBC Culture's Caryn James, Marvel's own 2025 take on Fantastic Four is "pleasant enough but lacks tension"."Despite strong performances by Pedro Pascal and others - and for all its 'breezy competence and flair' - this retro vision of the future from Marvel doesn't have enough suspense," she wrote."The subtitle First Steps says a lot - this film feels like a warm-up, introducing characters who will become major parts of the MCU."Empire's Dan Jolin enjoyed it much more, offering four stars."If the script doesn't hit quite so many comedic high notes as some other Marvels, it at least brims with sincerity, presenting a heroic squad committed to protecting the Earth, while encouraging the whole world to link arms and do its bit, too," he said."Those are the kind of heroes, it feels, that we need right now." Fantastic Four: First Steps is out in UK cinemas on Thursday.
