Watch: Eminem faces his fans in teaser for documentary 'Stans'
July 15 (UPI) -- Rapper Eminem faces his own superfans in the teaser trailer for documentary Stans, which will release in theaters for a brief run in August.
The teaser features Eminem, who also produces the documentary, hearing some of the most common questions asked to him by fans, including some about his 2000 song "Stan."
"Moving, funny, and revealing, the film offers a raw and riveting exploration of Eminem's legendary career through the eyes of his most devoted fans," the official synopsis reads. "Released in 2000, Eminem's song "Stan" -- about an obsessive, unstable fan -- remains iconic. So iconic that the term stan was officially added to the Oxford English Dictionary in 2017."
Stans will release exclusively in AMC Theatres locations in the United States from Aug. 7 to 10. The film will be released internationally on the same date by Trafalgar Releasing.
"More than just an exploration of fandom, the film examines the complicated relationship between one of the world's most private artists and his massive public persona. Through stylized recreations, rare archival footage, and intimate original interviews, it offers a raw, loud and revealing journey across Eminem's career -- and the passionate audience that has grown with him," the description states.
Stans is directed by Steven Leckart and produced by Eminem, Paul Rosenberg, Stuart Parr, Antoine Fuqua, Tony DiSanto, David Schiff with DIGA Studios in association with Shady Films, Fuqua Films, Interscope Films and MTV Entertainment Studios. Bruce Gillmer, Amanda Culkowski and Michael Maniaci serve as executive producers.

Watch: Jamie Lee Curtis recounts how she made 'Freakier Friday' happen

File Photo by Jim Ruymen/UPI | License Photo July 30 (UPI) -- Jamie Lee Curtis says she put in a call to Disney CEO Bob Iger upon realizing that Lindsay Lohan was old enough to play a mom in a sequel to their 2003 film Freaky Friday. The actress, 66, discussed Freakier Friday on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Wednesday. Curtis played Tess in the original feature, while a 15-year-old Lohan played her daughter Anna. The pair switched bodies in the movie, which strengthened the characters' relationship. "I went around the world to promote Halloween and wherever I went in the world... people would say to me, you know, 'When are you going to make another Freaky Friday?' That's all they wanted to talk about," Curtis recounted. "And I would be like oh well you know, soon, maybe at some point but you know Lindsay has to be old enough to be a mom of a 15-year-old because that's the only way you would make a sequel," she continued. When she learned that Lohan was old enough to play the mother of a teenager, she called Iger and production began. Lohan, 39, recently took to The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon to discuss the movie. "So Anna is older now. She has a teenage daughter, and she's fallen in love with a guy who also has a teenage daughter. The two girls are in school together, they don't really get along. Tess is still micromanaging Anna a bit, and there's a swap that happens, and everyone has to learn a lesson," Lohan said. The sequel also stars Julia Butters, Sophia Hammons, Manny Jacinto, Maitreyi Ramakrishan, Rosalind Chao, Chad Michael Murray, Vanessa Bayer and Mark Harmon. Freakier Friday hits theaters Aug. 8.

Photo by Jim Ruymen/UPI | License Photo July 30 (UPI) -- Nintendo has announced a new Direct presentation that will showcase new games coming to the Switch and Switch 2 consoles. The Direct, labeled as a Partner Showcase, will live stream on Nintendo's official YouTube and Twitch channels Thursday starting at 9 a.m. EDT.

Upcoming third-party games that could potentially make an appearance include titles such as the eagerly anticipated sequel Hollow Knight: Silksong, Hades 2, developer FromSoftware's The Duskbloods and a Switch 2 version of the highly-acclaimed Elden Ring titled Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition. Nintendo launched the Switch 2 console in June alongside Mario Kart World. Nintendo then released the critically-acclaimed Donkey Kong Bananza for the new console in July.
