All About Nicholas Hoult's Wife, Bryana Holly
A month later, they made their red carpet debut at the Los Angeles premiere of Nosferatu, eight years after they first started dating.
Here's everything to know about Bryana Holly and her connection to Hoult so far.
Holly is a model from California and she met Hoult in Los Angeles, per a 2019 interview the actor did with the Evening Standard. She primarily models lingerie and swimwear and is signed with Wilhelmina Models and No Ties Management. Holly was name Miss September by TransWorld Surf in 2012, according to Men's Journal, when she was only 20-years-old and living in Huntington Beach. In the interview, she described herself as a 'mutt mix,' saying she has a diverse background of 'Hawaiian, Japanese, Slovenian, Russian, and the list goes on.'
She also shared that her turn ons include 'Intelligence, good sense of humor, a man in a wetsuit,' and turn offs are 'cockiness, liars, and meatheads.'
In 2013, Holly dated Brody Jenner, brother to the famous Kardashian and Jenner sisters and star of The Hills.
The couple reportedly began dating in 2016, but kept things very private. They were photographed together in 2019.
In July 2022, Holly shared a carousel on Instagram titled 'life lately' that included shots of Hoult.
In January 2023, they attended a basketball game courtside.
In December 2023, she celebrated seven years together with a carousel of photos.
In November 2024, while talking to E! News about watching Nosferatu with Holly, he said, 'Afterwards, I remember I had my wife's nails imprinted on my hand.'
Hoult responded to People's questions about the word by saying, 'I feel like it's fairly clear from my comments.'
The couple share one son, Joaquin, born in April 2018.
'The levels of tiredness are extreme,' Hoult told the Evening Standard of parenthood in January 2019. 'No one warns you about it! But the level of love that comes with it outweighs everything. It's phenomenal. I'm loving it. And it evolves all the time. They change so much, every day is different. It fills you up as a human completely.'
He added, 'It makes you value time differently, which is why I talk very quickly in interviews now because I need to get home to them.'
In March 2024, Hoult was seen with Joaquin at an Atlanta Hawks game. In June 2025, Holly shared a photo to celebrate Hoult as a dad, blocking her son's face. Holly wrote in the caption, 'happy daddy's day to our guy. couldn't love you more.'

‘Superman' flexes its might in second weekend with $57.3 million
NEW YORK -- NEW YORK (AP) — James Gunn's 'Superman' showed staying power in its second weekend at North American box offices, collecting $57.3 million in ticket sales and remaining the No. 1 movie in cinemas, according to studio estimates Sunday. None of the week's new releases — 'I Know What You Did Last Summer,' 'Smurfs,' and 'Eddington' — came close to touching Warner Bros. and DC Studios' superhero success. 'Superman' dipped 54% from its domestic opening, an average decline for a big summer film. In two weeks, 'Superman' has grossed $406.8 million worldwide, a good start for the movie DC Studios is banking on to restart its movie operations. A big test looms next weekend, when the Walt Disney Co. releases Marvel's 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps.' Strong audience scores and good reviews should help propel the $225 million-budgeted 'Superman' toward profitability in the coming weeks. For Warner Bros. and DC Studios, 'Superman' is key to kicking off a 10-year plan for the comic book adaptation studio. Co-heads Gunn and Peter Safra were tasked with rehabilitating the flagging operation. Next on tap are the films 'Supergirl' and 'Clayface' in 2026. But 'Superman' is far from flying solo in theaters right now. Universal Pictures' 'Jurassic World: Rebirth' came in second this weekend, with $23.4 million in its third week of release. The seventh 'Jurassic' movie, this one starring Scarlett Johansson, held its own despite the competition from 'Superman.' In three weeks, it accrued $648 million worldwide. Apple Studios and Warner Bros.' 'F1: The Movie' has also shown legs, especially internationally. In its fourth weekend, the Brad Pitt racing drama dipped just 26% domestically, bringing in $9.6 million in North America, and another $29.5 million overseas. Its global total stands at $460.8 million. But both of the biggest new releases — Sony Pictures' 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' and Paramount Pictures' 'Smurfs' — fell flat. 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' opened with $13 million, a fair result for a movie budgeted at a modest $18 million, but a disappointing opening for a well-known horror franchise. The film, directed by Jennifer Kaytin Robinson, is set 27 years after the 1997 original. Teenagers played by Madelyn Cline and Chase Sui Wonders are again haunted for covering up a car accident. The movie's reviews (38% 'fresh' on Rotten Tomatoes) were poor for 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' and audiences graded it similarly. The film notched a 'C+' on CinemaScore. The original collected $72.6 million in its domestic run in 1997. Paramount Pictures' 'Smurfs' debuted in fourth place this weekend with $11 million. The latest big-screen reboot for the woodland blue creatures prominently features Rihanna as the voice of Smurfette. But reviews (21% 'fresh' on Rotten Tomatoes) were terrible. Audiences were kinder, giving it a 'B+' on CinemaScore, but the $58 million-budgeted release will depend largely on its international sales. In 56 overseas markets, 'Smurfs' earned $22.6 million. Ari Aster's 'Eddington' opened with $4.2 million on 2,111 screens for A24. Since its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival, 'Eddington' has been particularly divisive. The pandemic-set Western features Joaquin Phoenix as the right-wing sheriff of a small New Mexico town who faces off with its liberal mayor (Pedro Pascal). While Aster's first film, 2018's 'Heredity' ($82.8 million worldwide against a $10 million budget) helped establish A24 as an indie powerhouse, but the less-than-stellar launch of 'Eddington' marks the second box-office disappointment for Aster. His 2023 film 'Beau Is Afraid' cost $35 million to make but collected just $12.4 million worldwide. 'Eddington' cost about $25 million to produce. Audiences gave it a 'C+' on CinemaScore. None of Aster's previous films have been graded higher. Yet collectively, Hollywood is enjoying a very good summer. According to data firm Comscore, the 2025 summer box office is up 15.9% over the same period last year, with the year-to-date sales running 15% ahead of 2025. Summer ticket sales have amassed about $2.6 billion domestically, according to Comscore. With final domestic figures being released Monday, this list factors in the estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Comscore: 1. 'Superman,' $57.3 million. 2. 'Jurassic World Rebirth,' $23.4 million. 3. 'I Know What You Did Last Summer,' $13 million. 4. 'Smurfs,' $11 million. 5, 'F1: The Movie,' $9.6 million. 6. 'How to Train Your Dragon,' $5.4 million. 7. 'Eddington,' $4.3 million. 8. 'Elio,' $2 million. 9. 'Lilo & Stitch,' $1.5 million. 10. '28 Years Later,' $1.3 million.

‘Superman' Flies To $407M Global, ‘Jurassic World Rebirth' At Monster $648M; ‘F1' Racing Towards $500M WW & ‘Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle' Sets Records In Japan
…: It's been a busy weekend globally for Hollywood, with new milestones for two pictures, and as another pair close in on benchmarks amid strong holds. There was also new studio fare this frame while the latest Demon Slayer is a big hit in Japan, its first release market. Taking the major milestones first, and before digging into more detail, DC/Warner Bros' Superman topped the four-century mark in its sophomore session, flying to $406.8M global. In its 3rd weekend, Universal/Amblin's Jurassic World Rebirth, after topping half a billion worldwide during its sophomore frame, roared past $600M global to reach $648M through Sunday. More from Deadline 'Superman's $57M Second Weekend Propels Warner Bros. To Top Of YTD Studio Marketshare With $1.32B James Gunn Recalls Henry Cavill's Reaction To 'Superman' Re-Casting News: "This Poor Guy" Natasha Lyonne Jokes About Comparisons To 'Smurfs' Role Mama Poot: "Women, Don't Age In Hollywood" In holds, and near milestones, Apple Original Films's F1, via Warner Bros, keeps pushing the needle with increases in some markets again this session amid a mere 24% overseas drop from last weekend to top $300M ($307.2M) at the international box office and reach a $460.8M global cume to date, on its way to $500M. Universal's How to Train Your Dragon is closing in on $600M worldwide with $589M through today. Notably, some of the above titles have yet to open in Japan, having dated out of the way of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba Infinity Castle which started local release on Friday. This is the massively anticipated latest in the Demon Slayer franchise. While getting reliable grosses out of Japan this early (particularly as this is a four-day weekend with Monday a holiday), we are hearing estimates as high as 5.9B yen ($39.7M) for the FSS. We will update as clearer figures become available, but we do know that the movie (which will be released by Sony domestically in September) opened to an all-time Imax record in Japan of $3M. That's bigger than any Hollywood or local title and includes an Imax opening day Friday record. The estimated four-day total is $3.5M in Imax. Before we turn back to details on the above Hollywood holdovers, here's how the new movies fared. Paramount Animation's Smurfs grossed $22.6M this session internationally, for $33.6M global. That's lower than where we saw it pre-open, but comes with the codicil of a crowded marketplace and not so family friendly weather in Europe. Including Australia, which started last weekend, the offshore cume is $25M. As expected, France was first up with $3.7M, followed by the UK at $1.7M, Brazil at $1.6M, Mexico with $1.5M and Germany at $1.5M. Including last weekend, Australia is at $3.3M. Major markets still to release include Korea and Italy in August and Japan in September. Also new, Sony's I Know What You Did Last Summer hooked $11.6M from 58 overseas markets this session. That's on par with Happy Death Day 2U and 11% above Speak No Evil for the same group of markets at current rates. Overall, there's not the same nostalgia for this property internationally as there is domestically.

James Gunn recalls booting Henry Cavill from Superman role: 'Poor guy'
It's a bird, it's a plane, it's ... not Henry Cavill. In an episode of the "Happy Sad Confused" podcast released on Friday, July 18, "Superman" director James Gunn reflected on the "terrible" experience of telling Cavill he was being replaced as Superman by David Corenswet for the new movie. Gunn said he sat down with the actor to break the news in 2022. At the time, Cavill had recently returned as Superman for a surprise cameo in the DC movie "Black Adam," starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. After that film was released in October 2022, Cavill announced on social media that he was "back as Superman" and would reprise the role in future movies. But on "Happy Sad Confused," Gunn revealed that the same day Cavill's return was announced, he and producer Peter Safran closed a deal to take over as the heads of DC Studios. Behind the scenes, the pair had already been planning to reboot Superman and replace Cavill, who had played the character going back to 2013's "Man of Steel." "The day our deal closed, all of a sudden, they were announcing that Henry was back, and I'm like, 'What is going on? We know what the plan is.' The plan was to come in and do 'Superman,' " Gunn said. "So it was really unfair to him, and it was a total bummer." Join our Watch Party!

" Gunn noted that bringing back Cavill was "never a part of the equation" for David Zaslav, CEO of Warner Bros. Discovery, DC Studios' parent company. But Gunn said there was a "vacuum" in leadership at DC, and "a lot of people" were "trying to force" through their vision for the future of the franchise. He did not name names, though, noting he was trying to be "as diplomatic as possible." During his 2022 meeting with Cavill, Gunn said the actor was an "absolute gentleman" and a "great guy about it," only asking that he be able to share the news that he was being replaced as Superman himself. Cavill did so in December 2022, when he posted a statement on Instagram revealing that he "will, after all, not be returning as Superman." "After being told by the studio to announce my return back in October, prior to (Gunn and Safran's) hire, this news isn't the easiest, but that's life," Cavill told fans. "The changing of the guard is something that happens. I respect that." In posts on X at the time, Gunn said that Cavill would not star in the next "Superman" movie because the film would focus on "an earlier part of" the character's life. Corenswet, who at 32 is 10 years younger than Cavill, was ultimately cast in the lead role of "Superman." The movie is positioned as the start of a relaunched DC universe, set in a world separate from the one that Cavill's Superman occupied. Johnson, the star of "Black Adam," has previously said he played a major role in bringing Cavill back for his cameo in the 2022 film. "At the end of the day, the studio was not bringing Henry Cavill back, inexplicably and inexcusably," the actor said in a video on social media in 2022. "But we weren't going to take no for an answer." But just because Cavill is out as Superman doesn't mean his time with DC is over. Gunn said on "Happy Sad Confused" that Cavill could play another character in the new DC universe − just as "Aquaman" star Jason Momoa will play a new character, Lobo, in 2026's "Supergirl." "I talked to him about it on that day," Gunn said. "I would love to put Henry in something."
