‘Working with Tom is Incredible'
Actor Hayley Atwell has surprised her fans with a behind-the-scenes revelation about her time on Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning. The 43-year-old actor revealed on The Tonight Show that she was eight and a half months pregnant while filming an intense action sequence for the film. Despite the challenges, she insisted on performing the stunts herself. The actor, who became globally popular for her role as Peggy Carter in multiple Marvel Cinematic Universe movies, joined the MI franchise with its seventh instalment Dead Reckoning.
How has your character changed from when we last saw her?
Grace is a rather mischievous and fun character who makes mistakes but who can certainly hold her own with Ethan Hunt. She's still all that, but she has progressed. In the last film, she was really having to learn how to trust Ethan and to be part of a team. She now understands the cost of belonging to a group of people is the fear of losing them. So the emotional stakes for her are a lot higher in this one. She is still learning; she's still inexperienced, but she now also has this fear of something happening to the people she cares about.

Trump-Musk breakup: Late-night hosts mock feud with sharp jokes, from ‘Love Island' jabs to ‘World War Douche' digs
As the public feud between Donald Trump and Elon Musk took over headlines, late-night talk show hosts wasted no time tearing into the drama. With sharp wit and signature sarcasm, Jimmy Fallon, Stephen Colbert, and Michael Kosta each offered their take on the bizarre fallout between the U.S. President and the billionaire tech mogul. Jimmy Fallon, on The Tonight Show, compared the once-friendly duo to a crumbling reality show couple. 'Things have taken a shocking turn with one of the hottest couples on 'Love Island'. Of course, I am talking about Donald Trump and Elon Musk. Trump and Elon has been brutally attacking each other all day. Seriously their relationship went off a cliff faster than a self-driving Tesla. I'm not saying its bad but right now Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni are like, "Guys, take it easy. This is getting out of hand." He added, 'Today, Trump posted on social media that he asked Elon to leave and Elon went crazy. Just so we're clear, Trump thinks everything Elon did before this was not crazy? I can't believe their relationship fell apart this fast. A week ago they were all over each other, like Timothee Chalamet and Kylie Jenner at a Knicks Game.' Stephen Colbert, on The Late Show, described the feud as a "full-scale flame war" between 'the world's most famous besties.' Colbert quipped, 'A full scale flame war has broken out between the world's most famous besties - Donald Trump and Elon Musk. Here is where we stand. Musk spent all day yesterday slamming Trump's 'big, beautiful bill' to his 200 million followers on X. What's most impressive is that only half of those are his kids. Trump held his return fire until today in a press conference with German Chancellor. Trump's crack about the electric vehicle stung Elon so much that he wrote, 'Without me, Trump would have lost the election, Dems would control the House and Republic would be 51-49 in the Senate.' He added, "As soon as Trump was done meeting with the German Chancellor, he clapped back - "Elon was 'wearing thin,' I asked him to leave, I took away his EV Mandate that forced everyone to buy Electric Cars that nobody else wanted (that he knew for months I was going to do!), and he just went crazy!" "I'm sorry? Went crazy? Elon has always lived at the geographic centre of insanitude. He is not the Mayor of Crazytown, he is the Governor of 'Off-his-Medsylvania'," Colbert quipped. Michael Kosta of The Daily Show, was just as savage. 'There's been simmering tension between Trump and Musk — the leader of the free world and the breeder of the free world.' He dubbed the fallout 'World War Douche,' adding, 'I thought these two billionaires with the world's biggest egos would work it out amicably.' As Trump and Musk's bromance continues to unravel, it seems the only clear winners here are the late-night comedy writers.

Sydney Sweeney As Cassie is ‘Worse Than Ever' in Euphoria Season 3: ‘She's Crazy'
Sydney Sweeney has recently confirmed that Euphoria Season 3 will see her character, Cassie, push the boundaries of insanity even further. The series is expected to premiere in late 2025 or early 2026. Speaking on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Sweeney revealed that her character Cassie will be even crazier this season. When Fallon asked if Cassie remains unstable, Sweeney bluntly responded, 'She's even worse,' drawing laughter from the audience. Fallon also brought up a leaked image circulating online that shows Sweeney in a wedding dress. He speculated if this meant a possible marriage storyline involving Cassie. When asked if the rumor was true, Sweeney remained cryptic, saying, 'I can't confirm or deny,' and joked that the image could have been AI-generated. Cassie's spiral continues in Season 3 In a separate conversation with Empire Magazine, Sweeney elaborated on Cassie's mindset in the new Euphoria season. She said the character has never seemed happier—or more out of control. She admitted that Cassie is flawed, constantly making emotional mistakes, but does so from a place she described as 'a sad version of love.' According to Sweeney, she and series creator Sam Levinson worked closely on pushing the character's arc further, stating, 'I'll read something, then call him and say, 'Let's go crazier,' and he's all in. This season is unhinged.' Euphoria Season 3 production Production on Euphoria Season 3 officially began in January 2025, with the main cast—including Zendaya, Jacob Elordi, and others—returning. The story will likely to continue the intensely dark story seen in Season 2, where Cassie secretly dated Nate, her best friend's abusive ex-boyfriend. Outside of Euphoria, Sweeney recently wrapped filming an Apple TV+ thriller Echo Valley and a biopic on boxer Christy Martin. In Echo Valley, she plays a bloodied young woman who seeks refuge with her mother, portrayed by Julianne Moore.
