'Bachelor's' Nick Viall, Natalie Joy to host Netflix dating series
July 18 (UPI) -- Bachelor alumni Nick Viall and his wife, Natalie Joy, are slated to host an age-gap dating reality series on Netflix.
The streamer announced that the couple will helm Age of Attraction, which features participants between 22 and 59 years of age.
"In this new dating experiment, it simply does not matter how many candles were on your last birthday cake or how few wrinkles have formed on your forehead," an official synopsis reads. "Age is thrown out the window as singles search for their soulmates with help from hosts Nick Viall and Natalie Joy."
Viall, 44, is nearly two decades older than Joy, 26. They married in April of 2024, two months after their daughter River Rose Viall was born.
In March, Joy shared that she was experiencing a second miscarriage.
The couple had been dating about four years prior to marriage.
Viall is well known for appearing in two seasons of The Bachelorette, where he courted Andi Dorfman and Kaitlyn Bristowe.
He proposed to Vanessa Grimaldi after his season of The Bachelor, but the relationship didn't last, and he starred in Season 3 of Bachelor in Paradise.

Netflix Has Both 'Happy Gilmore' Movies Right Now, but Not for Long
The biggest original film to arrive on Netflix in July was undoubtedly Happy Gilmore 2. The Adam Sandler sequel was 30 years in the making and marks the return of one of his most iconic characters, Happy Gilmore, a Boston Bruins-obsessed hockey fan who turns his mean slapshot into a professional golf career. Happy Gilmore 2 premiered on Netflix on July 25, and features most of the original film's cast. Sandler is joined by Julie Bowen, Christopher McDonald, Dennis Dugan and Ben Stiller, all of whom reprise their roles from the first movie. Sadly, some members of the original 1996 cast, including Bob Barker and Carl Weathers, have died, but new characters played by Bad Bunny, Kym Whitley and Benny Safdie debuted in the sequel. With so much hype around the new release, it makes sense that fans are clamoring to revisit the original, which dropped on Netflix July 1 and is currently in the Netflix Top 10. But you'll have to act fast if you want to watch the comedy classic on Netflix -- that's because Happy Gilmore will no longer be streaming there after July 31. But, when one door closes, another opens, while you may not be able to watch the original on Netflix after this week, the good news is that it'll arrive on Starz on Friday, Aug. 1 so you can catch it there. You'll still be able to rent Happy Gilmore on platforms like Prime Video and Apple TV, too. So if you're gearing up for a Happy Gilmore weekend, fear not, you can still stream both films, as long as you know where to look.

Stephanie Beatriz: Quiet wants to fix an unfair world in 'Twisted Metal' S2

Photo courtesy of Peacock NEW YORK, July 30 (UPI) -- Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Encanto actress Stephanie Beatriz says her character Quiet is still fighting for equality in a post-apocalyptic world in Season 2 of the PlayStation game adaptation, Twisted Metal, which premieres on Peacock Thursday. "She sort of has the same mission she did at the end of Season 1, which is rob from the rich and give to the poor," Beatriz, 44, told UPI in a recent Zoom interview. "But it's expanded a little in her mind to: Why is everything so unequal? Why do the people behind the walls of the cities have everything and those on the outside have absolutely nothing?" she explained. "When Calypso (Anthony Carrigan) announces that there's this demolition derby tournament to the death and there's only one winner and that winner receives their greatest wish, well, she's got no choice but to enter." Season 2 sees Quiet working with Dollface (Tiana Okoye), the sister of her ex-boyfriend John Doe (Anthony Mackie), an amnesiac delivery driver who has been rewarded with a seemingly better life within the walls of New San Francisco after he completes a difficult task. "Whether or not she and John will see eye to eye about entering together, or if they're going to be adversaries, that sort of will be revealed as the season goes on," Beatriz said. "It's a little like when you went to college and then you came back to your hometown and you saw all the kids that you went to high school with and maybe some of the guys that you had crushes on or maybe even your ex-boyfriend and you're like, 'I don't know if you're quite as smart or handsome as I thought you were.' I think that's a little bit of where Quiet's at, at the beginning of Season 2." Quiet and John have always had a tumultuous relationship, despite their electric attraction to each other. "She's not so sure that they make the best partners," Beatriz said. "John's really used to having Quiet in the passenger seat next to him," she added. "Sometimes, he lets her drive, but, really, their relationship is one where John is in the driver's seat and Quiet is the passenger. So, what happens when Quiet has decided that she can drive, too? Maybe she's just as good, if not better, than John." Quiet has tremendous respect for Dollface because she recognizes what a good leader she is, but that relationship isn't perfect either. "I don't know that [Quiet], always, ethically, is in the same world as Dollface. Dollface takes some drastic measures and I don't know that Quiet's always comfortable with that," Beatriz noted. Quiet is one of the few characters who has lived within the relatively civilized city walls and its violent, untamed outer limits. After a bad experience in The O.C. -- where Quiet and her brother were enslaved and tortured with the promise they could some day earn their freedom -- she is suspicious about the price people must pay to join these protected communities. "She's really seen the great lie that has been sold to the people, not unlike the [real] world today. There's many great lies that we're kind of coming to grips with and our eyes have been opened about a lot of stuff in the last 20 years," Beatriz said. "For Quiet, she's been on the inside. She's seen how it works for people like her and she isn't willing to put up with it anymore and if that means that she loses her life in the process of trying to fight for what's right, then she's OK with that," the actress added. "I don't know if John's OK with that, though, because he really deeply cares for Quiet and I don't know that he's willing to risk her safety for the safety of everybody else." The show raises a fascinating question: Will the winner improve the lives of others or ramp up the misery for their own amusement? "One of the coolest things about bringing Calypso, played by Anthony Carrigan, into Season 2, is that not only is Anthony's performance just incredible -- he's such talented actor and he's so funny and weird and quirky and dangerous and kind of sexy in this role -- but this idea that Calypso can grant you anything your heart desires," Beatriz said. "No. 1, how can he do that? No. 2, how does it manifest? And, if you play the [video] game, Calypso doesn't always give you your wish in the way that maybe you want him to. Is it going to be fair and square, or is there some underhanded dealing going on behind the scenes?" This unpredictability and tension make for great storytelling, she added. "It felt like the rug was constantly being pulled out from under the characters and, personally, I really like that. When I watch television shows, I don't want to be 10 steps ahead of the characters," she said. "I want to be right alongside with them on the ride and I think you really feel that way in Season 2 of Twisted Metal."
