Project Runway: Christian Siriano to Serve as Mentor in Tim Gunn's Absence — Who Else Is Returning?
Siriano (who was the winner of the show's fourth season) originally replaced Tim Gunn as the designers' mentor in 2018 after Klum and Gunn both departed for Prime Video's Making the Cut. Garcia, who is the editor in chief of the U.S. edition of ELLE, has been a judge on series since it launched in 2004.

Newcomer and celebrity stylist Roach is best known for working with clients such as Zendaya, Céline Dion and Anya Taylor-Joy. He served as a judge for Seasons 23-24 of America's Next Top Model, before guest-judging on Project Runway in Season 20. Roach also serves as a rotating judge on RuPaul's Drag Race.
The new season of Project Runway — which was first announced in October — begins production Monday, and will air on Freeform weekly this summer. Episodes will then be made available for streaming on Disney+ and Hulu shortly after. Additional special guest judges will be announced at a later time.
Although Klum is back as host, her cohort Gunn will not be back. Gunn says Klum reached out to him to see if he was interested in joining her, and he was: 'Of course, there's not a moment of hesitation in me.' But months went by, and he didn't receive a contract offer when Klum did, so Gunn called his agent. 'He contacted the executive producers of this new show, and they said, 'We don't want him,'' Gunn recalls. 'So I wasn't asked back.' The producers did offer Gunn to make a cameo, but he turned that down: 'As Heidi would say, you're either in or you're out. And I'm out.'

Box Office: ‘Fantastic Four: First Steps' Aims for $110 Million Liftoff
It's box office clobberin' time — or so Marvel hopes. 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps,' the 37th installment in Disney's Marvel Cinematic Universe and third to release in 2025, is aiming for $100 million to $110 million in its opening weekend. The retro-futuristic adventure, starring Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Joseph Quinn as the titular team, is estimated to collect another $90 million to $100 million at the international box office for a global start between $190 million and $210 million. More from Variety 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' Review: Marvel Gets Its Mojo Back With a Satisfying Retro-Styled Reboot Original 'Fantastic Four' Star Michael Chiklis Wishes Marvel's New Cast the 'Best of Luck and Success': 'I Admire These Actors' 'Avatar: Fire and Ash' Trailer to Screen Exclusively in Theaters Before 'Fantastic Four' Those ticket sales are similar to the Warner Bros. DC tentpole 'Superman,' which took flight earlier this month with $125 million domestically and $220 million worldwide. Meanwhile projections are slightly above this year's two prior Marvel entries, February's 'Captain America: Brave New World' with $88.8 million domestically and $181 million worldwide, and May's 'Thunderbolts' with $74 million domestically and $162 million worldwide. Marvel movies often start strong, but 'Captain America: Brave New World' and 'Thunderbolts' cratered in subsequent weekends, with the latter becoming one of the lowest-grossing installments in the entire MCU. 'Captain America: Brave New World' and 'Thunderbolts' tapped out with $415 million and $381 million respectively and ended up as major money-losers against their $180 million production budgets. 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' was much more expensive than those films, carrying a price tag above $200 million. So the comic book adaptation needs serious staying power — strong reviews and great word-of-mouth would be helpful — to avoid a similar box office fate and qualify as a hit for Marvel, which has greatly struggled with commercial consistency over the past five years. Directed by Matt Shakman, 'Fantastic Four' follows Reed Richards a.k.a. Mister Fantastic (Pascal), Sue Storm a.k.a. Invisible Woman (Kirby), Ben Grimm a.k.a. The Thing (Moss-Bachrach) and Johnny Storm a.k.a. Human Torch (Quinn) as they protect their world from a planet-devouring cosmic being. Critical sentiment has been positive with Variety's Peter Debruge declaring that Marvel got 'its mojo back.' 'First Steps' doesn't have to clear a high bar to cement itself as the highest-grossing 'Fantastic Four' movie to date. That's because pior attempts to bring Marvel's First Family to the big screen weren't exactly creative or commercial triumphs. Fox's first two takes, 2005's 'Fantastic Four' ($330 million) and 2007's 'Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer' ($301 million) starring Jessica Alba and Chris Evans, were financially successful but critically derided. Meanwhile a widely panned 2015 reboot with Miles Teller, Kate Mara, Michael B. Jordan completely fizzled with $167 million globally. 'Fantastic Four' is this weekend's only major newcomer, though the comic book tentpole will face competition from 'Superman,' which is now in its third week in theaters. After two consecutive weekends at No. 1, the Man of Steel looks to add $28 million to $30 million in its third frame. So far, 'Superman' has grossed $243 million domestically and $415 million worldwide. Movie theater owners are banking on these heroes to pack a collective punch to ride out the dog days of summer.

Lindsay Lohan's Red-Carpet Accessory Was a Wink to 'Freaky Friday' Fans
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." Lindsay Lohan has been in her fair share of teen classics, from Mean Girls to Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, but she seemed to be channeling something more like Pretty in Pink with her latest red-carpet look. On Tuesday night in Los Angeles, at the world premiere of her new sequel, Freakier Friday, Lohan stepped out in a blush-colored princess gown befitting a frequent Disney collaborator. The sparkling Miu Miu design featured a heart-shaped bust, with material wrapped like bandages around Lohan's waist. Then, the fabric cascaded into a flowing, pleated skirt with a delicate scalloped hem that grazed the floor. All across the dress, tiny silver rhinestones dotted the material in lines, following the course of the fabric and slowly tapering off as they traveled down the skirt. These same gems made up the silvery spaghetti straps, and they matched Lohan's jewelry, courtesy of Lorraine Schwartz, which consisted of an intricate princess necklace and chandelier earrings. Perhaps the best part though was Lohan's nod to her Freakier Friday character, Anna Coleman. To go with her dress, the young mom carried a karaoke microphone clutch from Judith Leiber, which was coated in silver crystals (and retails for $4,995). Fans of the original will recall that Lohan's character is part of a band called Pink Slip (and come to think of it, the color of the dress was likely no coincidence either.) As she walked the purple carpet, Lohan reunited with Freaky Friday cast members who reprise their roles in the sequel—like Jamie Lee Curtis and Chad Michael Murray. But then, fans were treated to a surprise when she also had a mini reunion with two of her former Parent Trap costars: Lisa Ann Walter and Elaine Hendrix. The moment could have only been made better by an impromptu performance of 'Ultimate.'

How Lindsay Lohan Reimagined the Princess Look in Miu Miu for the ‘Freakier Friday' Premiere
Lindsay Lohan had a Disney princess moment in a blush pink custom Miu Miu dress for the premiere of 'Freakier Friday' in Los Angeles on Tuesday. Lohan's custom gown featured a fitted bodice and a V-shaped neckline. The dress included a cinched waist, which flared out into a flowing skirt. Throughout the soft pink shade of the dress were silver sparkling elements that added a touch of whimsy and a princess-like sensibility to the ensemble. The straps of the Miu Miu look were also encrusted with silver gems.

Among other accessories, Lohan nodded to the original 'Freaky Friday' with her purse, which carried a Judith Leiber silver microphone clutch. The purse was crafted with gradient flatback crystals on the bold dome and the stem, covered in silver crystal in a geometric pattern with round crystals for a unique web effect. When it came to her glam, Lohan turned to hairstylist Danielle Priano, who gave the actress' blond tresses a soft wave and styled her hair with a middle part. Lohan's makeup, by artist Ash K. Holm, featured bold brows, lined eyes and a soft, glossy lip. Lohan's look was curated by stylist Andrew Mukamal, who's also collaborated with Vanessa Kirby during her 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' press tour. Lohan's Disney princess-inspired gown coincides with a recent collaboration between Disney and Coperni. The Parisian brand's spring 2025 ready-to-wear collection took place at Disneyland Paris, with cofounders Sébastien Meyer and Arnaud Vaillant crafting a collection partially inspired by the company. 'It's probably the biggest project of our life,' Vaillant said at the time. Disney's collaborations with other brands extends well beyond fashion. The 101-year-old entertainment company's Disney princesses, in particular, were previously highlighted with Bath & Body Works and Aldo collaborations, among others. Other Disney stars have also followed suit with similar princess-inspired dressing. Rachel Zegler, who stars in the live-action iteration of 'Snow White,' wore gowns by Elie Saab and Dior during her press tour for the film. 'Freakier Friday,' starring Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis, is a sequel to the 2003 film 'Freaky Friday.' The movie follows mother-daughter pair Tess and Anna, played by Curtis and Lohan respectively, as they find themselves in the midst of yet another identity crisis similar to the one they experienced 22 years ago. The film hits theaters Aug. 8.
