While Julia Roberts tends to keep a low profile, one of her most famous exes was recently spotted looking stylish during a rare appearance on a morning show.
Benjamin Bratt, who dated the Pretty Woman star from 1998 to 2001, right before he began his relationship with now-wife TalisaSoto, was seen looking stylish and suave in NYC. Now a silver fox, he opted for a perfect spring ensemble consisting of a cream sweater and jacket, paired with white pants.

The Law & Order alum stepped into the role of Senator Bail Organa, in a recasting move that was done due to scheduling conflicts as Jimmy Smits, who previously played the rebellion hero, "wasn't available and couldn't make it."
During his chat with GMA, Bratt explained how blessed he was, noting that it's been "more than 50 years" since he was "one of the welfare kids in San Francisco" lining up around the block at the movie theater to experience the "life-altering film."
Half a century later, he's "actually playing within that Star Wars universe," which is "mind-bending," he said of the casting.
He noted that he joined the series a "little bit at the last minute," describing it as "jumping off of a bridge onto a box car of a moving train," noting that he hopes his "landing" will be well-received by audiences.
"Part of the challenge was stepping into the shoes of Jimmy Smits, who originated the role," he explained, noting it was "daunting" but he had a "great support system around me."
While the Hollywood hunk and his wife, who share two children, Mateo Bravery and Sophia Rosalinda, tend to keep out of the limelight while living in San Francisco, he remains active in the industry. In addition to Andor, he recently appeared alongside Brooke Shields in Netflix's Mother of the Bride, Poker Face and Millers in Marriage. His biggest hits include Miss Congeniality, Traffic, Despicable Me 2 and Oscar-winning Coco.

2 Reasons AMC Stock Is Soaring in June

Memorial Day weekend set moviegoing records, and a lot of the sales went to AMC as the largest theater chain. With many expected hit movies slated for release, management thinks it's turned a corner. AMC stock is still down year to date and the company has a lot to prove. 10 stocks we like better than AMC Entertainment › AMC (NYSE: AMC) is the largest movie theater operator in the world, but being the leader in a troubled industry hasn't done much for the company over the past few years. With the advent of streaming and residual fears from the pandemic, moviegoing just isn't what it once was and AMC continues to struggle. However, Memorial Day weekend was a boon for the company and AMC stock has been climbing. Let's see why and what it means for the future. Streaming from home has taken a toll on the box office, but there is still life left in theaters. Four of the top 10 highest-grossing films ever were released since the pandemic started, including Avatar: The Way of Water in the No. 3 spot and last year's Inside Out 2. People are still going to the movies. That fact was reinforced with a record Memorial Day weekend in May. Disney's live-action remake of Lilo & Stitch had the highest-ever four-day Memorial Day opening, and it was buttressed by a strong showing for Paramount's Mission: Impossible -- The Final Reckoning. Altogether, these two topped a blowout weekend with $326.7 million in domestic ticket sales, and Lilo & Stitch is already the second-highest-grossing domestic film of the year. Of course, that success trickled down to generate incredible financial results for AMC. Management said it set an all-time record for admissions revenue, food and beverage revenue, and total revenue for a weekend Memorial Day opening, and that the five-day stretch was the third-highest revenue for any five-day slot in more than 10 years. As for attendance, this was the highest-attended weekend and highest-attended five-day period of the year, both domestically and globally. Management didn't provide specific financial metrics for the weekend, so investors aren't likely to hear the nitty-gritty details until the second-quarter earnings release sometime in July or August. But management's update and optimism are boosting investor confidence. It's nice for the company to have a solid, record-breaking opening, but can it last? Management thinks so, and the market may be pricing that in. CEO Adam Aron said that after this weekend, AMC has turned a corner. "With many more potentially huge movies coming in June all the way through the end of 2025, and beyond that deeply into 2026 as well," he said, "we firmly expect to be enjoying a robust theatrical box office as we look ahead." Here's what to be excited about. Disney has a full slate of films coming out over the next few years, including the third film in the Avatar series. The first two are the highest-grossing and third-highest-grossing films ever, and the next film is slated for release this coming December. It also has the next Frozen film and other top franchises coming out soon. Warner Bros. has its own expected hits coming out, including a new Superman, and Comcast's Universal Studios has the next installment of Wicked and a new Shrek. Sequels to popular franchises can be big business. But the company is still reporting revenue declines and losses as of the 2025 first quarter. It will take some time to see if AMC has indeed turned a corner. As the price has increased in June, so has the short interest in AMC, hitting almost 15% of all outstanding shares. These investors are betting on this being a short-term boost and that the price will fall from this surge. Even though AMC stock is up 29% over the past month, it's still down 15% year-to-date. Unless the company releases incredibly strong earnings for the second quarter and keeps up its performance, the price jump may not last. Part of what's frustrating about that for investors is that many variables are beyond the company's control. It's up to film producers to create hit movies that bring viewers into theaters and to make the decision to keep them there long enough before they hit streaming services. That can be quite lumpy. You need to have real confidence in the future of the film industry and the resilience of theaters as a beckoning call for die-hard fans to want to invest in AMC's future, and for most investors, that time isn't now.

Disney's ‘Snow White' Ends Theater Run. How Much Money Did It Lose?

Cropped "Snow White" poster featuring Gal Gadot and Rachel Zegler. Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot's Snow White — Disney's embattled live-action remake of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs — is done playing in theaters. What is the breakdown of the film's losses? Rated PG, Snow White was released in theaters on March 21, following more than three years of controversies, including but not limited to Zegler's criticism of the 1937 animated classic and politically divisive social media posts. In addition, Peter Dinklage, the acclaimed Game of Thrones star born with a form of dwarfism, criticized the idea of Disney casting little people as the famed seven dwarfs from the famed Brothers Grimm tale during a 2022 interview with podcaster Marc Maron. Ultimately, Disney went the CGI route with the characters. Snow White stumbled out of the gate on its first weekend in theaters, earning $42.2 million domestically, a disastrous number considering the film's $269.4 million production budget before prints and advertising. The princess movie's business dropped 66% in its second weekend in theaters — losing its box office crown to Jason Statham's $40 million crime thriller A Working Man — and business rapidly dwindled from there. Now, roughly two and a half months after Snow White made its debut on the big screen, the film has finally completed its theatrical run. As indicated by The Numbers' weekly theater count list, Snow White's last day in theaters was Thursday, June 5. According to the box office tracker, the film earned $347 on Thursday from 25 North American theaters to bring its final domestic tally to $87,203,963. Coupled with the film's international ticket sales of $118,341,472, Snow White's worldwide box office gross comes to $205,545,435 against the $269.4 million production budget before prints and advertising costs. Rachel Zegler in "Snow White." Given the huge gap between the film's theatrical gross of $205.5 million and its production budget of $269.4 million, there's no arguing that Snow White ended its theatrical run deep in the red. The question that remains, however, is how muc those losses were. To begin with, the production needs to split its ticket sales with theater owners, which generally is a 50-50 split. On top of that, the film has marketing expenses, as well as residual payments and other expenses. In a post-mortem analysis by Deadline on March 31 — a mere 10 days after Snow White's release in theaters — the Hollywood trade publication crunched the numbers by forecasting that the film would finish with a worldwide box office gross of $225 million. Operating from that number, Deadline projected the film would eventually 'clear $295 million in revenues' from Snow White, which included '$101 million in global film rentals, $62 million in worldwide home entertainment, $130 million in streaming and TV revenues, and $2 million from merchandise.' Then, however, came the film's expenses, which Deadline estimated were $410 million for the production. In addition to the film's nearly $270 million price tag, Deadline noted that Disney spent $111 on global marketing costs and '$29 million in residuals and other expenses.' As such, Deadline concluded that Disney would lose $115 million on Snow White. However, since the March 31 analysis was based on a projection of $225 million worldwide theatrical gross, the worldwide tally of $205.5 million as of June 5 means the studio will lose even more. If there's any silver lining for Disney, the failure of Snow White is being followed by the success of the live-action version of Lilo & Stitch, which since its May 23 release has grossed $637 million globally against a $100 million production budget before prints and advertising, per The Numbers. Better yet, the film is eyeing its third consecutive weekend at No. 1 at the domestic box office and is no doubt in the running to become the highest-grossing film of the summer if not all of 2025.. Snow White, meanwhile, will make its transition to streaming on Disney+ on Tuesday, where the studio no doubt hopes the film will finally find an audience.
