Brains vs. guts: Dangerous Animals cast relied on their instincts in new shark thriller
'People don't understand the hierarchy of animals in this world,' Tucker, a serial killer played by Jai Courtney (Suicide Squad), says in the new shark thriller Dangerous Animals. The eccentric Tucker explains how people think with their guts instead of their brains when the '300 razor-sharp teeth' from a shark are tearing at someone's flesh. Courtney had to trust his instincts to play a sadistic sociopath like Tucker. 'I'm a very gut instinct-driven person,' Courtney tells Digital Trends about his character choices in Dangerous Animals. 'Some people operate really cerebrally, and it's all about logic. I'm much more impulsive, and that all stems from here [pointing to gut].' Recommended Videos Directed by Sean Byrne, Dangerous Animals is a mash-up between a survival horror and a psychological thriller. Yellowstone's Hassie Harrison plays Zephyr, a free-spirited surfer looking to run away from her past. One night, Zephyr is kidnapped by Tucker, the rambunctious owner of a shark cage diving business. Tucker uses the business as a front for his nefarious passion: feeding his guests to sharks. Trapped on a boat with a serial killer, Zephyr must survive long enough to figure out a way back to shore before she becomes chum in the water. Zephyr's only hope lies with a kind stranger she previously bonded with, Moses (Dune: Prophecy's Josh Heuston). Below, the cast of Dangerous Animals discusses their time at the Cannes Film Festival, the physicality required for each role, and whether they rely on their brains or guts when acting. This interview has been edited for length and clarity. Digital Trends: How was Cannes? Jai Courtney: It was such an unexpected gift to us to be able to go and showcase this. What an honor. I've never been to Cannes. Never experienced that. I think we were all surprised. It's not the most typical choice to have a shark serial killer survival thriller mashup there, but it's a testament to the wonderful film that Sean directed. Josh Heuston: Incredible, really. Hassie Harrison: We're still processing it all. Was it your first time? Harrison: Yes, that was our first time. I think it was just so surreal to go to Cannes and have a movie premiere there. Also, for it to be so well received was just the loveliest thing. So it's your first time with a standing ovation. Does it move from gratitude to awkwardness? Courtney: It started with awkwardness. We were so proud of the movie, and the audience was so on board the whole time. To have that reception, I was totally embarrassed. I was literally telling people to cut it [motioning to his throat]. I've got producers down the wing being like, 'Let it happen.' And I'm like, 'All right. Are we good, everyone? That's enough. Should we all get to the bar?' Heuston: So fast for me. [Laughs] Harrison: I just want to say Australians don't really love attention and compliments. I get it. Sometimes, it can feel like people are singing Happy Birthday to you on repeat, and you're like, 'Ohh.' Heuston: I just didn't know where to put my hands. Harrison: [Laughs] That is our job as actors. Heuston: Yeah, but then I hugged everyone like four times, and I didn't know what to do. [Laughs] I was fascinated by one of Tucker's speeches. This idea of how humans think with their brains and guts. Outside of a shark situation, as actors, when you're developing characters and on screen, do you find yourself relying on your brains or your guts? Have you found a happy marriage between the two? Courtney: I'm a very gut instinct-driven person, like a lot of sacral energy. I have to feel like something is a 'hell yes' or a 'hell no.' I think the brain gets in the way of that sometimes. Some people operate really cerebrally, and it's all about logic. I'm much more impulsive, and that all stems from here [pointing to gut]. It doesn't necessarily mean I'm always making the right move, but I've learned to trust that. It's how I have to approach life. Harrison: I think you gotta listen to your instincts. That's how you keep your nose to the joy trail. We need our brains to function in the world as well. I think what you're saying is ultimately about listening to your heart. Heuston: As an actor, I guess you use your brain to do all your prep work and your research. You figure out and learn as much as possible about the character and the given circumstance. At the end of the day, you've got to wing it and go with your instincts and your gut. Yeah, I feel that's kind of the way. Did you trust your gut for that dancing scene? Courtney: Yeah. I mean, that thing was two takes, totally improvised. I might have had a couple of little whiskies just to loosen myself up. Sean said it was on a Friday, so it was the last thing you did. Courtney: It was the last thing we did that week. We didn't know what it was going to be. We had an idea like, OK, it's about this celebration for Tucker. Sean wanted me to let loose. We pumped that track up that he [Tucker] danced to, which is an Aussie classic, Evie. I didn't know it was going to happen either, but I had to get myself into a mindset of stepping outside my comfort zone. Don't be afraid to look ridiculous. Zephyr, the character, is a free spirit. She looks to be having the time of her life. Obviously, she's damaged on the inside. She lives in that van; it's her cage. To get into that cage, what was your way of finding that character? Harrison: Zephyr's pretty close to home for me. I've always been attracted to playing strong, resilient women. I loved that she's a fighter. Her strength … I think I had a fast track in. She lives so close to home for me. What stuck with me is the physicality of this movie. All of the strenuous activity — going out on the line over the water, the night shoots, etc. How did you find a way into this character through the physicality and the strenuous activity? Heuston: I was in that harness for like two or three days. By the end of it, you're truly in there. As I was saying before, you feel much more grounded in that experience. You are getting taken across with the crane and then dunked in the water and then taken back out. You're doing it on repeat, and that is physically draining, just like Moses would be in that moment. I loved it though, to be fair, in like a really sadistic way. [Laughs] It hurt, but it was like really fun. What about you, Hassie? Harrison: Yeah, this was a very physically demanding role, to say the least. All the water stuff — filming out on the ocean, not in a tank — it gives you so much as an actor to just dig into that discomfort. Being in the ocean at night when you're genuinely scared makes my job easier. There's a fearlessness required to play Tucker. How did you go to that place, to really let yourself go and find the courage to do what's required to play this character? Courtney: I came from theater, and one of the earliest things you learn to adopt when you're playing on stage is you have to shed this fear of being ridiculous or looking like the clown. It's almost like you have to embrace that. Be unafraid to fall. You're not going to make every right choice. You have to look like an idiot. But what that injects into young performers is you can be nimble. There's nothing at stake here other than an opportunity to find something new. I knew with this role that it had to be big. It's all there on the page for me to sink my teeth into. If it was reduced down to playing some wash of an evil guy, it becomes uninteresting, and we believe it less. It had to stem from the truth. He had to be this wounded child within. I wanted to flood him with this performer that we see on the boat because he's the captain of Tucker's experience. This is all real stuff. It's not all geared toward his killings. He runs a successful business, which is why he's able to hide in plain sight. I wanted that to feel real to me like him taking the stage on the back deck and the way he sheds his wisdom, even if he does love the sound of his own voice too much. He needed to be somewhat of an affable presence as well as a threat. That's interesting. Now, I think of him [Tucker] as a theater performer. The boat is his stage. Courtney: I mean, we've all met this guy before in some way or another. He's the cab driver that won't shut up. He's the uncle at the wedding that like… Please stay away. Courtney: Exactly! We know this guy, and that's what sprung off the page for me. I've spent time in the pub with this dude. I don't necessarily want to be around him anymore, but I can lock into who he is. I love the power dynamics between Jai's character and Hassie's character. You're [Jai] pretty much in control in the beginning. Then, she starts to get under your skin, and it flips, where she's the one in power. Take me through those conversations about the power shifting throughout the movie. Courtney: I think it's just understanding how to shift the status. She plays such a strong character within herself. I think that's the thing. She really gets under his skin because she doesn't necessarily relent to his kind of threats and certainly not his charms. That's a tough thing for a guy like Tucker because he feels akin to her in some way. He's under the belief that spiritually, they see the world in the same way and operate in unison somehow, and she doesn't believe that at all. I think she has her own wounds, but ultimately, she's got a much stronger mind than him. Harrison: I think it's really just one of those classic tales of cat and mouse. That's what makes it so fun when you get those little wins and then get the setbacks. Jai is just a powerful person, indeed. [Laughs] It's cool to go toe-to-toe with him and do that dance. Even walking into the room, he's [Jai] such a big figure. So loud. Heuston: Big dude, and he's such a generous actor, though, so it makes it so easy to do those scenes. Dangerous Animals is exclusively in theaters on Friday, June 6.

Richard Simmons' L.A. Mansion Where He Died Listed for $7 Million 1 Year After His Death
The home where Richard Simmons died is up for sale one year after his death His former 4-bedroom and 5-bathroom estate is listed for $7 million The fitness guru died one day after celebrating his 76th birthdayRichard Simmons' longtime Los Angeles home where he died has been listed for sale, one year after his death. The fitness guru died in the Hollywood Hills home one day after celebrating his 76th birthday, his longtime publicist, Tom Estey, confirmed to PEOPLE on July 13, 2024. At the time, a law enforcement source told PEOPLE, "The LAPD are not pursuing the investigation as if foul play was involved at this point." The Richard Simmons Estate, as the $7 million property is called, was built in 1937. Sitting on a half-acre lot above the Sunset Strip, it spans approximately 4,119 sq. ft. and has four bedrooms and five bathrooms. John A. Lucy of Keller Williams Hollywood Hills is the listing agent of the home, which is described as a Neo-Classical Revival colonial. Features include a gated motor court, separate from the stately front portico with grand columns. Once inside, the front doors lead to a formal center hall entry with custom wood flooring, an updated kitchen featuring Thermador appliances and breakfast area, plus a formal dining room spacious enough to hold 10 guests. Additional areas for entertaining include a step-down living room and music room with a double-sided fireplace. Palladian fan windows and French doors are among the carefully thought-out architectural detailing. An added maid suite for staff or guests has its own laundry, pantry and service entrance. With a home this special, of course, the primary suite — with its two levels and four rooms — would also be designed to impress. The area is home to a dressing room, bathroom and a large finished upper level Keiser-equipped gym or additional living space. A pool and pool house are some of the perks to be enjoyed, along with the landscaping design that offers a scenic backdrop. Simmons, known for his vibrant personality, had not been publicly seen since 2014 and became increasingly private as time went on. However, he posted on social media the day before his death, letting fans know he was grateful for the 'many messages' he received for his birthday. Teresa Reveles lived with Simmons for 35 years and was often erroneously referred to as his housekeeper. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. After his death, she recalled how every night a family of skunks would arrive at his back door in West Hollywood, Calif. Simmons would feed them peanuts by hand, getting so close that the animals became accustomed to him. ''Richard! They probably have rabies!' I would tell him,' Reveles told PEOPLE in an exclusive interview. 'He died happy,' she added of her longtime friend. Read the original article on People

The Best Bobs to Get, Based on Your Zodiac Sign
There's no denying the skyrocketing popularity of the bob—from shaggy to blunt chops—but if you're unsure which style to get, perhaps it's time to try finding the best bob based on your zodiac sign. Any hairstylist worth their salt will agree that the best bob for you is the one that suits your everyday lifestyle and personality the most. And considering just how spot-on horoscopes can be, it makes sense to look at your star sign for some guidance. Are you a water sign who appreciates stability (and perhaps a chic French bob)? Or are you a fixed sign who's unafraid to experiment with a dramatic Hollywood bob? For the chameleonic mutable sign (looking at you, Sagittarians), perhaps the versatility and ease of a lob would best complement your free-spirited vibe. Of course, your chosen haircut should ultimately be the one you love the most (no matter what your birth chart says), but given the endless array of choices available, looking at astrology can be a fun way to navigate the trend this summer. Ahead, find the best bob haircuts to try based on your star sign: Aquarians are known for being trendsetters and trailblazers (famous Aquarians include Harry Styles, Megan Thee Stallion, Oprah Winfrey, and Jennifer Aniston, if you need any proof), and what better way to embrace your rebellious side than with an ultra-cool shaggy bob? Considering how social Aquarians can be, the shaggy bob is exactly the conversation starter you need—and you'll no doubt enjoy the compliments it brings. As one of the most romantic star signs (just ask fellow Pisces Olivia Rodrigo), it's only natural for you to gravitate towards a tousled, woke-up-like-this French bob. Pisceans are known to be charming, dreamy, and imaginative, just like the versatile French bob. Its slightly longer layers make for a great canvas for accessories and can easily be tied into a half-updo or a petite chignon or ponytail. Très jolie. Aries are revered for their self-assured, highly competitive nature, so what better way to embrace that ambitious side than with a pristine, precise blunt bob? Naturally, the straight-edge silhouette of a blunt bob is high-maintenance, but no one fulfills that demand for perfection better than the no-nonsense Aries. That said, Aries do have a tendency to act on a whim, so make sure to have a thorough consultation with your hairstylist before committing to this chop. If you love all things cozy and comfortable, you're likely to be a textbook Taurus. This star sign enjoys the lovelier things in life and appreciate having a sense of stability, which means something perennially chic and classic like a bob with bangs will suit you perfectly. Follow in the footsteps of follow Taureans, such as Audrey Hepburn and Lizzo, by pairing a short bob with a matching eyebrow-grazing fringe. Yes, the micro bob is dramatic and not for the faint of heart, but if anyone can pull it off, it's a Gemini. There's a playfulness to Geminis and a natural sense of curiosity, which makes the whimsical micro bob so alluring for the star sign. Given that Geminis are generally easily adaptable, there's no doubt that you'll find a myriad of ways to style this statement-making cut—whether it's through accessories or a punchy color. It'll make you the trendsetter of your friendship circle too, which is excellent, given how Geminis are known for being comfortable in social groups. Cancers are beloved for their gentle, intuitive, and sensitive side (think of famous Cancers like Lana Del Rey, Ariana Grande, and Emily Ratajkowski), which makes the wavy bob the ideal haircut. It's fluffy, soft, and fairly easy-going—all the personality traits found in a classic Cancer. There's a welcoming warmth to Cancers, which drives many into their orbit, not unlike the endlessly flattering wavy bob, which is a low-maintenance way to embrace a shorter haircut. Leos are partial to showstopping glam (looking at you, Jennifer Lopez and Madonna) and are often the beauty icons of their social circles, so why not go big with a breathtaking Hollywood bob? The party-ready, voluminous bob is perfect for a Leo's big personality. This star sign is fearless and inventive (just like fellow Leo Coco Chanel), which makes them the perfect candidate for a red-carpet-ready haircut. It's easy to recommend a razor-sharp bob to the Virgo—they're so organized, they're unlikely to miss a salon appointment. But given just how Type A they can be in their everyday life, it's probably better to go for a more low-maintenance cut, so they can focus their energy elsewhere. Enter: the layered bob, or a '90s bob, with its soft layers and natural volume. This practical and chic cut lets Virgos spend their time crossing off their endless to-do list instead of dedicating hours to styling. Lucky Libras really have a keen sense of aesthetic and a penchant for the little details. This means that the little flippy bob (as seen on fellow Libra Kim Kardashian) is a perfect fit for this air sign. This hairstyle is also a balm for a Libra's indecisive nature, as it's more a styling trick than a specific haircut. They can always opt to style it sans flip, should they change their minds. Scorpions like Lorde, Willow Smith, and Tracee Ellis Ross march to the beat of their own drum when it comes to style, and the clean-cut, polished finish of the Italian bob can serve as their ideal canvas. The look won't compete with the Scorpio's penchant for trendsetting fashion choices, but rather, complements it. If there's anyone who'll trick you into thinking they've gotten a bob, it's likely to be a Sagittarius. As a free-spirited star sign who finds it challenging to commit, a long bob (also known as the lob) or a faux bob will let them lean into the shorter style without fully taking the plunge. The versatility of these longer layers also mirrors the Sagittarius's ability to be easily adaptable in most situations. Capricorns are the epitome of 'quiet luxury.' They often favor something understated and elegant, things that whisper rather than shout. The grown-up vibe of the graduated bob, which is slightly shorter in the back and longer in the front, is a softer, more modern version of a power haircut, which Capricorns will no doubt gravitate towards.
