Michael Cimino and Melissa Collazo star as siblings Zac and Caitlyn Torres, a pair of teens who move back to their father's hometown to live with their uncle, Logan Maddox (Ryan Phillippe).
Michael and Melissa are trying to escape the shadow of their father, Christian Maddox (Deacon Phillippe), who was a racing legend in his era. It doesn't take long for the siblings to make an enemy out of Harris Bowers (Josh Macqueen), a rich kid with a reputation for being the best racer in town. To take Harris down, they're going to need to restore their dad's old Charger and enlist the help of their very reluctant uncle.

Five years before Shawn of the Dead hit theaters, Simon Pegg and Jessica Stevenson co-created and starred in the British sitcom Spaced. They played Tim Bisley and Daisy Steiner, two strangers who decide to pretend to be a couple in order to land a new place to live that is run under a very strict set of rules by their landlady, Marsha Klein (Julia Deakin).
Edgar Wright — the director of Shawn of the Dead — helmed every episode of Spaced, while Pegg's frequent co-star, Nick Frost, played Tim's best friend, Mike Watt. Spaced had a very bizarre and even surreal sense of humor, while Tim and Daisy spent a lot of time denying they were a couple to their friends even though there is clearly an attraction between them.

Hub Halloran (Kevin Bacon) is dead, but he gets better in The Bondsman. While he was alive, Hub was one of the best bounty hunters in the south. That's a talent that the devil won't let go to waste. Through his intermediary, Midge Kusatsu (Jolene Purdy), the devil resurrects Hub with a new mission in life to hunt down escaped demons and send them back to Hell.
This wasn't something that Hub asked for, but he'll take his second chance at life to fix some of the mistakes he made the first time. That includes mending fences with his family and rediscovering some of the passions that he left behind. He'll be a better man if he can keep up his end of the devil's bargain.

Nathan Fillion had his first true breakout role as novelist Richard Castle on ABC's Castle. After meeting NYPD Detective Kate Beckett (Stana Katic), Castle is so taken by her that he decides to write a new book featuring a main character based on her. Castle then pulls some strings with the mayor to get permission to follow Beckett as she investigates homicide cases.
Although Beckett initially resents Castle's presence, he helps her solve many murder investigations. And as the pair grows closer, Castle learns about the investigation that Beckett has been trying to solve her entire life: the murder of her mother, Johanna Beckett. That story takes years to play out.
Reportedly, Fillion and Katic didn't get along very well, but that's hard to tell from the early seasons when Castle and Beckett's romantic tension was at an all-time high. They were fun to watch together, even in the later seasons.

Not every love affair is everlasting in The Narrow Road to the Deep North, but Dorrigo Evans () would be lost without it. This adaptation of Richard Flanagan's novel chronicles Dorrigo's torrid romance with Amy Mulvaney (Odessa Young), a young woman who is his aunt by marriage. Throughout World War II, the memory of what Dorrigo shared with Amy sustains him even while he's a prisoner of war. As Dorrigo's men die of disease and starvation around him, he holds on to the warmth and hope that Amy gave him. But his story doesn't stop after the war, and Dorrigo's life doesn't play out like a romantic fairy tale with a happy ending for everyone. The Narrow Road to the Deep North is streaming on Prime Video.
Frasier Crane (Kelsey Grammer) wasn't the most popular character on Cheers three decades ago, but he was the right choice to be featured in the spinoff Frasier. This sitcom equalled the 11-season run of its predecessor and became a classic in its own right.The series expanded Frasier's character development by introducing his brother Niles (David Hyde Pierce), their blue-collar father Martin (John Mahoney), and Martin's physical therapist Daphne Moon (Jane Leeves). Frasier also reinvented himself as a radio show host alongside his producer, Roz Doyle (Peri Gilpin). This group of performers had outstanding chemistry, and they collectively ensured that Frasier is still one of the best comedy series two decades after its conclusion. Frasier is streaming on Prime Video.
Although The Wheel of Time recently returned for its third season on Prime Video, you should probably start at the beginning before diving into this show. This adaptation of Robert Jordan's novels has a dense mythology that rivals Game of Thrones in scope, and it easily outshines Prime Video's other big-budget fantasy show, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.Rosamund Pike leads the cast as Moiraine Damodred, a powerful channeler of magic who is seeking the Dragon Reborn, the reincarnation of one of the few men who can use magic in this world. Moiraine believes she's found the one she's looking for among four young men and women, including Rand al'Thor (Josha Stradowski) and Egwene al'Vere (Madeleine Madden). All four have hidden abilities and a destiny that will slowly unfold, but not all of them will ultimately be aligned against the coming darkness.

The irony of Fallout's breakthrough as one of Amazon's top series is that the video game franchise hasn't had a new game since 2018. But the retro-futuristic post-apocalypse of the games gives the TV series a rich backdrop and an intriguing mythology to explore.Yellowjackets' Ella Purnell stars as Lucy MacLean, a young woman who has lived inside a colony deep within a vault her entire life. Lucy didn't really have any concept of what life was like outside until her colony was attacked by raiders who kidnapped her father, Hank (Kyle MacLachlan). When Lucy sets out on a rescue mission in the wasteland, one of the first people she meets is The Ghoul (Walton Goggins), a mutated man who was once an actor named Cooper Howard. The Ghoul has lived hundreds of years, and he's no friend to Lucy, but he does have some very hard lessons to teach her.

Invincible may seem like an overnight success for Amazon, but the comic it's based on is 22 years old and still resonates with this adaptation. Co-creator Robert Kirkman (The Walking Dead) has a knack for creating likable characters and then putting them through horrible things. This show may be animated, but it hits harder than many R-rated films with its brutal action. And it doesn't shy away from the toll that violence takes on the heroes and the world around them.Mark Grayson (Steven Yeun) grew up in the shadow of the world's strongest hero, his father, Omni-Man (J. K. Simmons). Once Mark comes into his powers as Invincible, he discovers his father's true agenda for Earth. If Mark wants to save the only world he's ever known from his own flesh and blood, then he'll have to live up to his superhero name.

Alan Ritchson has played superheroes before, but he's never played a larger-than-life character like Jack Reacher until now. Reacher makes Ritchson seem like an uncommon man among men as he drifts from town to town and takes on the rich and powerful while combating injustice. The recently premiered third season puts Reacher in his toughest case to date as he goes undercover in a criminal organization to locate a missing DEA agent and to bring down a crime lord. And for the first time since the show began, Reacher has finally met an enemy who physically towers over him: Paul "Paulie" van Hove (Olivier Richters).

Moonlighting is celebrating its 40th anniversary in 2025, and it made Bruce Willis famous while giving Cybill Shepherd a Hollywood comeback. This quirky comedy/drama featured Shepherd as a former model, Madelyn "Maddie" Hayes, who reinvents herself as a private detective alongside David Addison (Willis).The dialogue in this series and the fantastic chemistry between Shepherd and Willis entertained a lot of fans in the '80s. Moonlighting took dramatic chances and big swings like few series do, and not all of them connected with its audience. But this series is more than just a footnote in history, it's also one of the all-time greats.

If you know anything about English history, then you're probably well aware that King Henry VIII didn't look anything like actor Jonathan Rhys Meyers. And you're probably not going to care about that level of historical fidelity when watching The Tudors. This series was a Showtime original, and it liberally blended historical fact and fiction as it chronicled Henry's tumultuous reign.Game of Thrones' Natalie Dormer had one of her first big roles in this series as Anne Boleyn, one of Henry's many wives. Unfortunately for the ladies, Henry rarely let his wives off easily when he wanted out of their union. And their heads aren't the only ones that will roll in this entertaining series.

There's something so inherently charming about Hugh Laurie that it's a pleasure watching him perform as Dr. Gregory House even when he's being a huge jerk to his patients, his colleagues and even to himself. House was a medical procedural like no other, and the title character was modeled after Sherlock Holmes. If you watch the show's entire eight-season run, you'll see a lot of parallels between House and the great detective. The secret to House's success is that Laurie was surrounded by a very talented supporting cast, including Lisa Edelstein, Omar Epps, Robert Sean Leonard, Jennifer Morrison, Jesse Spencer, Olivia Wilde, Kal Penn, and more. Their characters added more dimension to the show and helped flesh out House himself.

The Expanse has been described as Game of Thrones in space, and that's not entirely inaccurate. Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck – who collectively write as James S. A. Corey – crafted a very believable future for humanity that's not some idealized Star Trek fantasy. Who needs aliens when humans are still itching for a war against each other? The people of Earth and Mars are at each other's throats, while the humans in the asteroid belt are considered second-class citizens by both sides.James Holden (Steven Strait), Naomi Nagata (Dominique Tipper), Amos Burton (Wes Chatham) and Alex Kamal (Cas Anvar) are the only survivors of a mining ship that stumbles across a deadly conspiracy to reshape worlds. In another part of the galaxy, Detective Joe Miller (Thomas Jane) is unknowingly tied to their fate as his missing person case takes on a significance that goes far beyond his wildest dreams.

If you feel like the creative team behind The Boys hates superheroes, then you're probably right. This is perhaps the most cynical comic book adaptation ever, and it features 'heroes' like Homelander (Antony Starr) who openly have contempt for the people they're supposed to be protecting. Hugh Campbell (Novacaine's Jack Quaid) discovers this unfortunate truth when his girlfriend is accidentally killed by one of the world's fastest heroes, A-Train (Jessie T. Usher).That's where Billy Butcher (Karl Urban) comes in. No one despises 'supes' more than Butcher, and he's got a vendetta against Homelander for deeply personal reasons. Billy recruits Hugh to join his team, The Boys, to bring down all the heroes. But the odds are always stacked against them.

Comedy and mystery collide in Monk, an unforgettable series that was once one of the most popular shows on cable during its eight seasons on the USA Network. Tony Shalhoub brings a lot to his character, Adrian Monk, especially when Monk is so hilariously neurotic and ruled by his phobias. Despite his overpowering OCD, Monk is a world-class detective, but he needs someone to keep him on track. In the first few seasons, that person was his assistant, Sharona Fleming (Bitty Schram), while Traylor Howard's Natalie Teeger took on that function from season 3 onward. Almost every episode is neatly tied up, but the mystery of who killed Monk's wife is saved until the very end of the series.

The best and worst outfits billionaires have worn in 2025 so far
Jeff Bezos and Taylor Swift are among the billionaires with sharp style moments this year. A mix of diamond jewelry and strong silhouettes has enhanced their looks. Others, however, have missed the mark with some of their fashion choices. Billionaires like Jeff Bezos and Taylor Swift have been everywhere this year. That includes this fashion list. They're both among the wealthy figures who have shown their riches in stunning diamonds and standout outfits on red carpets this year. Other billionaires are on this list for another reason: Their fashion has missed the mark at one point or another in 2025. Here's a look at the best and worst outfits we've seen so far. Jeff Bezos embraced an accessory trend at the 2025 Vanity Fair Oscars after-party, and it worked for him. The Amazon founder walked the red carpet alongside his now-wife, Lauren Sánchez Bezos. For the occasion, he wore a classic black tuxedo, a white button-up shirt, and dress shoes. His accessories, though, elevated the look. In addition to a white satin bow tie, Bezos also wore a rounded, diamond-shaped brooch encrusted with numerous diamonds. Gustav Magnar Witzøe, on the other hand, took things too far at the Met Gala. The Norwegian billionaire wore a Todd Patrick design for the New York City event. It included wide-legged trousers, a button-up blouse, a satin tie, and an asymmetrical blazer — all of which were white. He also carried a clear briefcase filled with rose petals, wore a wide-brimmed hat, and sported a semi-sheer overcoat with a long train. Though the outfit was memorable, it looked more like a costume than a red-carpet look. Kim Kardashian was one of the best-dressed attendees at the Bezos-Sánchez wedding in June. Ahead of the wedding ceremony, Kardashian was photographed boarding a water taxi while wearing a skin-tight design from Versace. The vintage brown dress was sleeveless with a deep, V-shaped neckline and sequin embellishments. Not only was the 1996 design stunning on Kardashian, but she also accessorized it perfectly with a stack of diamond necklaces and black sunglasses. At the Met Gala, however, Kardashian was one of the worst-dressed. Chrome Hearts designed her dark ensemble, which included an alligator-print bustier atop a form-fitting skirt. The latter had a train that extended down the Metropolitan Museum steps, and her top had off-the-shoulder sleeves. The Skims founder also wore a wide-brimmed hat and layered diamond necklaces. The outfit's Western vibe didn't make sense for Kardashian, and her accessories were too glamorous to match the edgy ensemble. Bill Gates had a simple style moment in New York City, and it was underwhelming. The Microsoft cofounder was in New York City when he was photographed wearing a navy suit. Though it was tailored sharply, the rest of his outfit lacked depth and detail. He wore suede loafers, striped socks, a blue sweater, and a white undershirt. A brooch attached to his jacket or a fun watch could have enhanced the look. LeBron James perfected quiet luxury and coordinated with his wife. The basketball star and his wife, Savannah James, attended the annual Hammer Museum Gala in May, and both were dressed to impress. While she wore a semi-sheer ruffled dress from Issey Miyake, LeBron James sported a full Louis Vuitton outfit. He wore black trousers, $1,690 Louis Vuitton sneakers, and the designer brand's $3,800 Damier jacket in tan. The outfit perfectly complemented his wife's and was subtly luxurious. Taylor Swift made the right choice when she opted for a simple and sultry Grammys look this year. Vivienne Westwood designed the superstar's red minidress for the 2025 Grammy Awards. It had a structured bodice, a wrapped skirt, and all-over sparkles. The outfit proved that red is Swift's color and also nodded to her boyfriend, Travis Kelce. It included a leg chain with a T initial charm, which Swift co-designed with Lorraine Schwartz. Rihanna has a standout maternity style, but one of her recent looks didn't work. She was photographed exiting a car in Los Angeles in July while wearing a custom design from Alaïa. The top half of the outfit was chic and stunning, featuring a tank top with an attached hood. She also wore diamond earrings, black sunglasses, and pink lipstick to enhance the outfit's glamour. Unfortunately, the musician and business mogul's textured skirt with a 3D waistband distracted from her overall outfit. Oprah Winfrey experimented with cutouts and looked effortlessly chic. She wore a burgundy Solace London dress with short sleeves, a white abstract print, and deep waist cutouts for the Bezos wedding. The dress was a bit daring compared to Winfrey's usual style, but it suited her. She also increased the look's overall elegance with rose-tinted sunglasses and a wavy hairstyle.

Famous Families Who Had Public Feuds Falling Outs
For all the perks that come with being a celebrity, there's no denying that it's known to cause some friction with your nearest and dearest — AKA your perhaps not-quite-as-famous family. Where there's money, power, and influence, there's bound to be drama, and celebrity families like the Hogans, the Osbournes, the Trumps, Jacksons, and even the British royal family have all fallen prey to infighting from time to time. The nature of these feuds varies wildly, be it a one-time thrashing in an elevator or years of targeted attacks through, say, publishing a series of pointed tell-alls (a well-worn practice when fighting with famous loved ones). For these families, the difference is the fighting itself (sometimes physical) that's played out in the public eye. However, these families go on to resolve or not resolve the aftermath of these issues, there are some famous fights the public just won't ever forget. Read on for the family feuds that we can't believe actually happened. A version of this story was originally published in November 2020. More from SheKnows The Most Important Celebrity Lawsuits Through the Years Best of SheKnows Tom Cruise's Full Dating History Is Filled With Many A-List Women Who Is Pamela Anderson Dating? Inside Her Relationship History All the Best Fashion Moments from Lindsay Lohan's Acting Comeback The Hogans In March 2025, Hulk Hogan's ex-wife, Linda, revealed an ongoing feud with Hulk and daughter Brooke Hogan in her family, claiming, 'Brooke doesn't talk to us.' She blamed her ex-husband, from whom she split in 2007, calling him a 'complete liar' and a 'sex addict.' Days later, Brooke responded with a lengthy Instagram post, saying she stopped speaking to her parents eight years ago for 'completely separate reasons.' Brooke went on to add that she was 'verbally and mentally abused since childhood.' 'Sadly, it would frequently turn physical,' she said. 'And sometimes it's not by the person you would assume, abuse comes in all shapes and sizes.' 'Up until adulthood, I've received berating and vile text messages, verbal, public reamings with unbelievably hurtful words said to me that cannot be forgotten,' she wrote. 'I've watched others benefit financially off my suffering and embarrassment caused by their selfish behaviour.' In 2015, an audio recording of Hulk using racial slurs about a Black man Brooke was dating at the time resulted in his contract with the WWE ending. At the time, Brooke released a poem defending him. However, in her 2025 post, she revealed that she wanted to 'take control' of the narrative and distance herself from her family's abusive behavior. 'I have been to therapy, I am doing the work. I am breaking the chain. It ends with ME,' she said. After Hulk's July 24 death, sources claimed Brooke and Hulk reconciled in the lead up to his passing. Kelly & Aimee Osbourne Kelly Osbourne and her elusive older sister Aimee Osbourne have no contact, the TV host revealed in 2021. 'We don't talk,' Kelly said during an appearance on Dax Shepard's podcast Armchair Expert, 'We're just really different. She doesn't understand me and I don't understand her.' Aimee, who is the oldest of Sharon and late rocker Ozzy Osbourne's three children together, lives a starkly different life than her family and famously moved out of home at 16 to avoid appearing on their reality TV show. 'Back then, I still felt I was trying to figure out who I was in the chaos of family life, so why on earth would I want that portrayed on television?' Aimee told The Independent in a rare 2015 interview. At the time, she also alluded to issues with Kelly and her younger brother, Jack. 'I wouldn't say there is an ease between us,' she said. 'But there is an acceptance. Do we socialize? No.' Matthew McConaghuey & Mary Kathlene McCabe Matthew McConaghuey discussed his 8-year estrangement with his mom on the Whine Down with Jana Kramer podcast in 2023, explaining that his mom's habit of sharing his personal life with the media caused issues. 'Anything she asked me, I couldn't tell her personally because she didn't have a governor, she'd go to the press. She showed up on Hard Copy, taking people to my childhood room, showing people, 'This is where he lost his virginity,'' he explained. 'I need just a mom right now, not a fan and I didn't have it.' He added that he eventually rebuilt trust and is on speaking terms with his mom once again. Jennifer Aniston & Nancy Dow Jennifer Aniston's fraught relationship with her parents began early in life after her dad left their home. 'My house was not a fun house to live in,' she told Allure in 2022. 'I was thrilled to get out.' The pair reportedly didn't speak for 15 years after Dow released a 1999 memoir From Mother And Daughter To Friend which included many personal details about her daughter such as Aniston seeing a psychiatrist for help in dealing with 'boyfriend problems and some old issues with Dad.' However, Aniston claims she healed the bond with her parents before they died. 'I forgave my mom,' she told Allure. 'I forgave my father. I've forgiven my family.' Caitlyn Jenner & The Kardashians While the Kardashian family were publicly supportive of Caitlyn Jenner's transition from the jump, tensions arose after Caitlyn spoke badly about ex-wife Kris in her 2017 memoir. 'I've never been so angry and disappointed in somebody in my whole life,' Kris vented on Keeping up with The Kardashians after the book's release. Caitlyn has not held back when it comes to criticizing her ex and former stepchildren in the media, even appearing in a Hulu documentary to accuse the family of orchestrating their fame, saying: 'Kimberly calculated from the beginning, 'How do I become famous?'' Priscilla Presley & Riley Keough Following the passing of Lisa Marie Presley on Jan 12, her mom Priscilla Presley and oldest daughter Riley Keough began a legal dispute over Lisa Marie's estate. According to the Associated Press, Priscilla filed legal documents disputing the validity of a 2016 amendment to her daughter's trust that removed Priscilla and replaced her with Lisa Marie's two oldest children, Riley and Benjamin Keough. The legal dispute was settled in June 2023 with Keough being declared the sole executor of the will. Presley was reportedly paid a lump sum. She later addressed the alleged feud, claiming there was never any ill will with her granddaughter. 'Riley and I are on good terms. We were never not on good terms. That was all publicity,' she said. 'This is private and this is not something to fool around with and say that we're not agreeing.' Britney Spears & Jamie Lynn Spears The feud between Britney Spears and her younger sister Jamie Lynn Spears escalated very quickly — and all in view of the public eye. After gaining freedom from her 13-year conservatorship, Britney called out members of her immediate family for the pain and trauma they caused her for more than a decade. At the same time, Jamie Lynn was planning to share her side of the story. Less than three months after her sister gained her freedom, Jamie Lynn's memoir, Things I Should Have Said, debuted. The younger Spears sister's publicity campaign for the memoir included going on podcasts, Good Morning America, and Nightline to share anecdotes from the book — including stories about her big sister and where their relationship stands today. Britney continued to air her frustrations on social media, and the two sisters eventually began trading barbs on Twitter and Instagram. Finally, Britney issued a cease and desist letter to her little sister, requesting that Jamie Lynn abstain from sharing more stories about her. Jamie Spears & Britney Spears Few family dramas have played out in more dramatic detail than pop star Britney Spears long battle to have her father Jamie Spears removed as her conservator — a victory she finally won in September 2021 after he'd served in the role since 2008. Speaking out in court in June 2021, Britney finally revealed how dire her circumstance had become under this arrangement, claiming she'd been prevented from having more children with then-fiancé Sam Asghari, that her medication was changed suddenly and dramatically, that her ability to see her sons was restricted, and much more. As the #FreeBritney movement surged on social media in wake of her testimony and new documentaries revisiting her media treatment, the tide finally turned for the Spears family, and Britney is now navigating life beyond her father's control. Meghan & Thomas Markle Meghan Markle's feud with now-estranged father Thomas Markle happened in the months leading up to her 2018 wedding day with Prince Harry. Despite Meghan's pleas to respect their privacy, Thomas staged paparazzi photos and gave multiple interviews to the press, and ultimately decided against attending the London wedding after suffering a heart attack close to the date. Meghan wrote her father a heartfelt letter that was later leaked in the media — for which Meghan successfully sued — in which she asked her father to stop using their names to make money from the press. Thomas' increasingly scathing post-wedding interviews decrying Meghan's choice to 'cut him off' proved he simply wasn't willing to do that, and Meghan's relationship with him has been distant ever since. Leighton & Constance Meester Leighton Meester's 2012 lawsuit win against mom Constance Meester seemed to be the final straw in this explosive mother-daughter relationship, after the actress claimed her mother had been spending the money she was sending home for her sick brother on personal expenses. Constance countersued claiming she had been verbally promised $10,000 per month from Leighton for life, but ultimately dropped her claim. The judge ruled that Leighton was not responsible for any further support to her mother, and the pair don't appear to have a relationship since. Jay-Z & Solange Knowles If your sister and your husband are getting into it this badly, a serious line has been crossed. After the 2014 Met Gala, security footage showed Solange physically attacking Jay-Z in the elevator of an afterparty after a heated exchange. They released a bland public statement claiming to have apologized and moved on shortly thereafter, but the Beyhive has long believed that Jay-Z's infidelity was what pushed Solange over the edge that night. Beyoncé briefly addressed the fight in 2014 lyric, singing: 'Of course sometimes sh-t go down. When it's a billion dollars on an elevator.' Kyle Richards, Kathy Hilton & Kim Richards The Richards sisters have gone through many ups and downs on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, beginning with Kyle and Kim's explosive season 1 fight over inheritance and Kim's addiction issues, which continued to be a source of tension for years. Kyle later revealed she wasn't on speaking terms with Kathy after being uninvited from Nicky Hilton's 2015 wedding, which she ended up attending. During Kathy's stint on the show from 2021 to 2023, the sisters faced more tensions and went through many bouts of not speaking. Kathy said in a 2023 interview that the group have many issues but will always love one another. 'Things are obviously not great — I think most people know that,' she told E! co-hosts Justin Sylvester and Adrienne Bailon-Houghton. 'But we're family, we're blood. We'll always come back together.' Angelina Jolie & Jon Voight Angelina Jolie's relationship with dad Jon Voight has had its ups and downs over her life, with their issues first beginning when he split from her mother Marcheline Bertrand after cheating on her. They were estranged for many years, but reconnected after Bertrand died in 2007. Feud rumors flew again when he wasn't invited to her 2014 wedding with Brad Pitt, and the latest rumblings of issues between this father-daughter pair stem from the fact that Voight has reportedly stayed in touch with Pitt post-split. Eric & Julia Roberts Julia Roberts grew up with the support (if somewhat overhanded) from her brother Eric Roberts, also an actor. But as his personal behavior spiraled out of control, Julia wound up taking sides against him in his ex-wife Kelly Cunningham's custody battle for daughter Emma Roberts. When Julia welcomed her twins in 2004, she also welcomed her brother back into her life, but Eric's curious habit of taking credit for Julia and Emma's acting careers has continued despite the reconciliation. 'If it wasn't for me, there would be no Julia Roberts and no Emma Roberts as celebrities, as actresses, and I'm very proud of that. When Julia first came to New York, I went into William Morris and I said, 'Which one of you is going to sign my sister Julia?'' Eric told Vanity Fair in 2018. 'And I am so proud that everybody knows I was first because I was first by a long shot. I was first to get Golden Globe and Academy Award nominations, so I'm proud of that. Madonna & Christopher Ciccone Madonna was once close with brother Christopher Ciccone, but his scathing 2008 memoir Life With My Sister Madonna kicked off a feud that didn't end until 2019. Madonna has recently patched things up with her brother for the sake of their aging father, but the wounds created in their sibling relationship won't ever be fully healed. Prince William & Prince Harry Prince Harry and Prince William's ongoing rift seems to have kicked off in 2018, when Harry began dating Meghan Markle. As Harry told it in his memoir Spare, his and Meghan's attempt to quash the British tabloid's mistreatment of her didn't always sit well with his older brother. With Harry alleging, in the book, that William even physically assaulted him during a heated argument, the brothers' relationship seems irreparable now. The Jackson Family When Michael Jackson's will turned out to have excluded his siblings, providing only for mom Katherine and kids Paris, Blanket, and Prince, all hell broke loose in the Jackson family. In 2012, siblings Jermaine, Janet, Tito, Rebbie, and Randy released a joint letter accusing the executors of their late brother's estate of having falsified either the documents, circumstances of his death, or mother's willingness to go along with the plan. The following week, when Katherine mysteriously disappeared for eight days, they requested an emergency custody hearing that granted TJ Jackson, Michael's nephew, temporary custody of Michael's children, which Katherine publicly rebuked days later. Just days before that hearing, there was an infamous incident in which Jermaine, Janet, and Randy showed up at Katherine's house in the hopes of taking Michael's children to an unknown location. Accounts from that night (and cell phone footage released in its wake) suggest that Janet may have slapped niece Paris and called her a 'spoiled b*tch' and that Trent Jackson got into a physical altercation with the intruders before police arrived on the scene. Kourtney & Kim Kardashian When Kourtney stopped showing up to family events and announced that she was pulling back from Keeping Up With The Kardashians, it kicked off a feud between her and Kim the likes of which not even the most devoted KUWTK watchers had seen before. Kim accused Kourtney of being 'the least interesting to look at' while Kourtney called the whole family 'disgusting' and come early 2020, the two were seen physically attacking each other in the latest season. Yikes! Things between the two are still rocky but the pair are still supportive of one another… most of the time. Candy & Tori Spelling When Tori Spelling's father Aaron passed away in 2006, it was reportedly a dispute over his will that first drove her and mom Candy apart. But Tori's reality show and Candy's memoir in the years that followed — both of which were highly critical of the other — certainly stoked the flames. Candy went on to post a public letter accusing her daughter of shutting her out, and Tori went on The View to decline her mother's request to reconcile. These days, they're apparently on better terms. Melania & Ivanka Trump Former advisor and Vogue staffer Stephanie Winston Wolkoff has detailed a years-long feud between Melania and Ivanka Trump in tell-all Melania and Me, after years of frosty exchanges had the public wondering whether this stepmom relationship was as tense as it seemed. According to Wolkoff, 'Princess Ivanka' (a name used by herself and First Lady Melania) has always been competitive with Melania, and never more so after they entered the White House, when Jared Kushner and wife Ivanka began a quiet campaign to use their political power for self-gain. Specific tiffs between Melania and Ivanka included Ivanka's attempt to take over decorating the East Wing (the First Lady's domain), and the fact that Ivanka was allowed to use the Trump name for her brand lines but Melania was not allowed to do so for her skincare line.

I don't know about you, but I felt just as blindsided as James Reece (Chris Pratt) was at the end of The Terminal List when he found out that his friend and confidant, Ben Edwards (Taylor Kitsch), had betrayed him. Now, obviously, I get why Ben did this, because he explained his reasoning before he was killed. However, there's still so much more to this story, I can just tell. So, thank goodness we're getting a spinoff on the 2025 TV schedule all about this complex character. How The Terminal List Ended For Ben Edwards So, I did not contribute to The Terminal List's 1.6 billion minutes watched when it originally came out in 2022. I binged it with my Amazon Prime subscription weeks before Dark Wolf's premiere. Therefore, knowing Taylor Kitsch was getting his own show played a big part in my interpretation of and shock over the series. This shocking instance I'm referring to is the scene where we find out that Ben was involved in the conspiracy that ultimately led to James' team and family dying. That was confirmed in the show's finale when Ben said: Admiral swore you were already dead. Said you and the boys had tumors. And I thought 'Let 'em die with their fucking boots on rather than in some hospital bed.' Then, when James asked if Ben did this for his friends or for $20 million, Kitsch's character replied with: Maybe both, at first. I haven't spent a fucking dime. I can't. But you should know, I need you to know, that it's set in fucking stone. Laura and Luce, I had nothing to do with it. And when I found out, I wanted to set the fucking world on fire, brother. I was with you. Every step. Cleaning up all those motherfuckers that took them. That's the truth. Amazon Prime Video: 30-day free trialThe Terminal List is about to return with its spinoff, Dark Wolf, and you'll be able to watch it week to week. You can also stream Season 1 of the Chris Pratt series with an Amazon Prime subscription right now. Plans start at $14.99 per month, and you can get the first month for free. View Deal There wasn't much explanation past that, and James ended up shooting his friend. Now, as we move into The Terminal List Season 2, I can't help but wonder how that betrayal and choice will impact James. However, a bigger question on my mind is: What led Ben to do this? Well, thankfully, his spinoff from one of Amazon's best shows might give us an answer. The Terminal List: Dark Wolf Will Serve As Ben's Origin Story Here's why I'm so relieved Ben is getting his spinoff, The Terminal List: Dark Wolf: I need to know when and why he changed and lost his undying loyalty to Reece and co. When did he decide to betray his brothers? What changed him to the point where he felt like he could or had to make the choice? How did his time in the CIA change him after he left the SEALs? Thankfully, it seems like The Terminal List: Dark Wolf will answer at least some of those questions. The series, which premieres its first three episodes on Wednesday, August 27, will serve as Ben's origin story. Amazon's synopsis states that it will follow Kitsch's character 'throughout his journey from the Navy SEALs to the clandestine side of CIA Special Operations.' It also promises to be an 'espionage thriller that explores the darker side of warfare and the cost that comes with it.' I'm really hopeful that we'll get some necessary backstory here that adds some depth to Ben's moral greyness, and I personally can't wait to watch it. That feeling increased tenfold when I re-watched the trailer for Dark Wolf after seeing the original series, and heard Ben say: When we step on that battlefield, we fight for each other. This is why it's so hard to give up that brotherhood. So, that tells me we'll get to see some events play out that lead to him ultimately giving up this 'brotherhood' he found in the military. The trailer, which you can see below, also features Tom Hopper's Raife Hastings talking about the importance of knowing how to find the breaks and stop as a whole bunch of violence happens. It seems like Ben is a loose cannon, looser than he was in The Terminal List, and that will likely play into the choices he makes that eventually lead to his fatal fate at the end of the original series. The Terminal List is one of Taylor Kitsch's best projects, and his character was such a fascinating part of the series. So, I'm thrilled he's getting a spinoff, and we might finally get some backstory to the biggest betrayal of Season 1. Solve the daily Crossword
