Wishbone
, tonight, August 15, through Republic Records. The project marks Gray's return to a more stripped-back, singer-songwriter approach.
According to Gray, the songs on
Wishbone
were written over the past two years in private moments between tours and after performances. 'Over the past two years, I've been secretly writing songs,' he said. 'After shows in the basements of venues, in hotel beds, between tours, I'd come home and write the things I felt nobody wanted to hear. Maybe even the things I didn't want people to hear.'

From Jenna Ortega to Catherine Zeta-Jones: The Richest Wednesday Season 2 Star Revealed at USD 150 Million
Netflix's hit series Wednesday has returned for Season 2, with Jenna Ortega once again leading the cast as the dark and witty Wednesday Addams. While Ortega has quickly risen to global fame and built a solid fortune, she is not the wealthiest star in the show. That title belongs to Catherine Zeta-Jones, who plays Morticia Addams and stands far ahead of her co-stars with an estimated net worth of USD 150 million, according to The Richest. Catherine Zeta-Jones leads the cast in wealth Catherine Zeta-Jones, an Academy Award-winning actress, has enjoyed a long and successful career in Hollywood. With blockbuster films such as Chicago and Traffic, along with high-profile endorsements, Zeta-Jones has secured her position as the richest cast member of Wednesday. Her USD 150 million net worth places her well above her co-stars in terms of off-screen fortunes. Steve Buscemi and Luis Guzmán among veteran stars Following behind Zeta-Jones is Steve Buscemi, who joins Season 2 as Barry Dort, Nevermore's new pyro-kinetic principal. Known for iconic roles in Reservoir Dogs, Fargo, and Boardwalk Empire, Buscemi has built a fortune of about USD 35 million. Luis Guzmán, who reprises his role as Gomez Addams, has also established himself as a respected Hollywood veteran. With more than four decades of work and credits in films like Boogie Nights, Traffic, and the series Narcos, Guzmán's net worth is estimated at USD 13 million. Where does Jenna Ortega stand? Jenna Ortega, the breakout star of Wednesday, has seen her fame soar since the first season. At only 20 years old, Ortega has built an impressive estimated net worth of USD 5 million. While not the highest among the cast, it reflects her fast-rising career and growing popularity worldwide. Billie Piper, who joins the series in Season 2 as Isadora Capri, Head of Music at Nevermore, has earned around USD 12 million through her career in television and music, including roles in Doctor Who and I Hate Suzie. Hunter Doohan, who plays Tyler Galpin, holds an estimated USD 400,000, with credits in indie films and TV roles such as Daredevil: Born Again.

M.T.'s life retold in vivid detail
His was an extraordinary life. M.T. Vasudevan Nair influenced the language and society in the way no other writer did. With his novels, short stories and screenplays, he enriched Malayalam literature and cinema like nobody else. He was also an exceptional literary journalist. It cannot be easy to write the life story of such a man. It took K. Sreekumar three years to come up with the biography of M.T. That time seems to be well spent. M.T. Vasudevan Nair, published by Mathrubhumi Books, succeeds in telling the reader, vividly and in detail, about every aspect of the genius. The book is more than a mere biography; it is also a study of M.T.'s works. His novels, short stories and films have been discussed. And M.T. himself reveals how his much-loved characters and plots have taken shape in his mind. Importantly, it is not just his fiction and cinema that fill the pages – more than 1,000 of them – but other aspects of his creativity, such as drama. Not many people may know that M.T. was a State Award-winning playwright and drama director. His contribution to children's literature and career in Mathrubhumi Weekly, where he had two stints as editor, also features prominently in the book. You could even read about M.T.'s failed business ventures: he had run a pharmacy for a while and founded a publishing house which had done very well initially, having brought out Vaikom Muhammad Basheer's Anuragathinte Dinangal and Sukumar Azhikode's classic Thathwamasi. The students and admirers of M.T. will appreciate that Sreekumar has managed to include in the book some of the lesser-known works from the master storyteller. You could read M.T.'s play Gopuranatayil, the songs he wrote for films and drama, and even some of his work as a student. By talking to various people connected with M.T. and anthologising tributes to him in little-known publications, the author gives insight into his personality as well. Liberal use of photographs and clippings from old newspapers and magazines embellish the book. For Sreekumar, it was a labour of love. 'The suggestion about the biography came from M.T.'s close friend and literary critic M.M. Basheer,' he says. 'I was glad that M.T. allowed me to write the book; I have known him for a long time and worked with him at Mathrubhumi Weekly. My only regret is that I could not complete it in his lifetime. I know he was looking forward to it.'

Fahadh Faasil recalls losing film with Oscar-winning director Alejandro Inarritu
Fahadh Faasil, one of the most versatile actors in Indian cinema, has shared that he was in discussions for a role in an international project directed by Oscar-winning filmmaker Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu, known for 'The Revenant' and 'Birdman'. Speaking in a new interview with Cue Studio, the Malayalam actor shared that the opportunity didn't materialise due to issues with his was not like he rejected me, but it was the accent that he was concerned about. To perfect the accent, I was told to go to the US and stay there for three or four months. But they weren't ready to pay for that. That's why I skipped it. Otherwise, I would have gone running. The commercial aspects of it wouldn't have worked out. I didn't feel that kind of fire for it to do so much for my accent,' Fahadh explained. The actor further added, 'I spoke to him on a video call. It might be during that conversation that he also realised, 'Oh, this isn't the guy I'm looking for.' Such things happen. There have been many films I lost during such meetings. All the magic in my life happened here in Malayalam. So, even in the future, if any new changes were to happen, I want them to come from Malayalam. I don't think I will leave Kerala for that. If a project emerges that redefines me in some way, I want it to be in Malayalam.'While Fahadh did not disclose the exact project, Inarritu's upcoming untitled film, starring Tom Cruise, is slated for release in October 2026. The movie follows the story of the 'most powerful man in the world' on a desperate mission to prove he can save humanity from a disaster of his own making. The ensemble cast includes Sandra Huller, John Goodman, Michael Stuhlbarg, Jesse Plemons, Sophie Wilde, and Riz was last seen in 'Maareesan' and will next appear in the romantic comedy 'OKCK', which is set to hit theatres on August 29.- EndsMust Watch
