What to Watch This Weekend (Aug. 2-3): 9 Best New Movies and Shows to Stream Now (Including a Major Reboot of a Beloved '80s Comedy!)
Here's where to watch the top nine best movies and shows the weekend of Aug. 2-3 The first weekend of the month can often be slow in theaters and streaming but August is already off to the races as we grasp onto the final few weeks of summer! This weekend, Aug. 2-3, the summer of reboots continues with the revival of an '80s comedy classic in theaters. Over on streaming, true crime is ramping up once again with a new iteration of Netflix's Conversations with a Killer series. Not ready to sidle up to a spooky documentary just yet? All good, we have some lighter options with the return of everyone's favorite fashion competition and a new comedy series from Leanne Morgan. And there's more! Here's a list of the nine best new movies and shows to watch this weekend and where to stream them. The Naked Gun Liam Neeson may be known for his ultra serious action roles, but he's getting silly (and scantily clad) in The Naked Gun. A reboot of the 1988 classic of the same name, Neeson's character, Frank, is following in the footsteps of his goofy police officer father — and taking on the law in his own unique way (which includes whipping out his gun to skip the bathroom line). The Naked Gun releases in theaters on August 1. Project Runway season 21 Make it work! So goes the iconic catchphrase of OG Project Runway mentor Tim Gunn, and the show is certainly taking the slogan to heart as it revs back up after a two-year hiatus with a new judge panel, host and streaming platform. Back at the helm is Heidi Klum, though Gunn won't be joining her after 16 seasons together. Also returning are designer (and winner!) Christian Siriano as host and Elle editor-in-chief Nina Garcia as judge. Celebrity stylist Law Roach is also joining the judging panel, where he is not holding back on his takes. Watch the first two episodes of Project Runway season 21 on Hulu and Disney+, with episodes releasing weekly at 9 p.m. ET on Thursdays on Freeform. My Oxford Year Starring two of Netflix's darlings — The Life List's Sofia Carson and Queen Charlotte's Corey Mylchreest — My Oxford Year brings Anna de la Vega and Jamie Davenport's love story from the 2018 book of the same name to life. Anna is an ambitious American who has dreamed of studying abroad at the University of Oxford for a year. What she doesn't expect is to fall for her hot, brooding professor — who is naturally emotionally unavailable, as hot brooding professors are. Watch My Oxford Year on Netflix. Conversations with a Killer: The Son of Sam Tapes Netflix hones in on a new serial killer in a continuation of its Conversations with a Killer series: the Son of Sam, David Berkowitz. Between the summers of 1976 and 1977 in New York City, the now-incarcerated serial killer targeted women with short brown hair who were often sitting in cars with their partners in "lovers lane." He left cryptic letters for the police, signing off as the "Son of Sam," until he was eventually caught after illegally parking at the scene of one of his crimes. Watch Conversations with a Killer: The Son of Sam Tapes on Netflix. The Yogurt Shop Murders Four girls walked into a yogurt shop in Austin in 1991, but none walked out. Authorities found their bodies after the I Can't Believe It's Yogurt! storefront was set on fire, and to this day, no perpetrator has been caught. An HBO docuseries, The Yogurt Shop Murders, looks back at the chilling tale and the cold case, featuring interviews with the victims' families and investigators. Watch The Yogurt Shop Murders on Sunday, Aug. 3 at 10 p.m. ET on HBO and HBO Max. Leanne Morgan may have only launched her comedy career in her 50s, but she's already off to the races with a self-titled sitcom on Netflix, Leanne. After her husband leaves her for another woman, Leanne's life is turned upside down. But thankfully, she has her extroverted sister to help push her in the dating world. Watch Leanne on Netflix. Perfect Match season 3 If you don't have reality dating show fatigue yet (though surely this may push you over), then we have another one queued up for you: Perfect Match is back. Season 3 marks a new chapter for the Netflix show: while previously the series focused on pairing reality stars from the streamer's own dating universe, this time around it's broadening the pool to include Bachelor Nation, Love Island and other fan-favorite show alums. Watch the first six episodes of Perfect Match season 3 on Netflix. Chief of War Jason Momoa has passion projects just like us. His just happens to be producing and telling the story of the unification and colonization of Hawaii in the late 18th century in an Apple TV+ show. Momoa, who is of Hawaiian heritage himself, stars as a chief on a mission to unify his people as colonizers arrive to annex their land. He is joined by a predominantly Polynesian cast. Watch Chief of War on AppleTV+. Twisted Metal season 2 This plot is so twisted (pun intended) it's hard to keep up but if video game adaptations are your cup of tea, then the second season of Twisted Metal will be right up your alley. Following the revelations in the season 1 finale, John (Anthony Mackie) and Quiet (Stephanie Beatriz) find themselves enrolling in a strange man's Twisted Metal tournament, which is essentially a demolition derby. Watch season 2 of Twisted Metal on Peacock. Read the original article on People

Nancy Meyers Reacts to Reports of 'The Holiday 'Limited Series at Apple TV+: 'News to Me'
The 2006 film's director weighed in on the news of the adaptation, which neither she, Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Jude Law nor Jack Black are involved inNEED TO KNOW Reports circulated on Aug. 1 that the beloved 2006 Nancy Meyers movie The Holiday is being adapted into a limited series for Apple TV+ Per the report, the series will bring in all-new faces and not see Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Jude Law or Jack Black return. Meyers herself was also reportedly not involved in the project The director spoke out about the report in a post on Instagram, as she said it was "news" to her and she'd learned of the adaptation via social mediaNancy Meyers doesn't seem to be in the loop on matters relating to one of her most beloved films. On Friday, Aug. 1, reports circulated that The Holiday, which starred Cameron Diaz, Jude Law, Kate Winslet and Jack Black, is being revisited, this time as a limited series. Per Deadline, Apple TV+ will adapt the film's same concept — an ambitious American woman (Diaz) house swaps with a heartbroken British woman (Winslet) and both of them fall in love in the most unexpected way — with new characters and stars. Rob Delaney is on board the project as writer, and Sweetpea's Krissie Ducker will executive produce, the outlet reported. Apple TV+ did not respond to PEOPLE's request for comment about the report. The news came as a shock to Meyers, who spoke out about the report in a post on her Instagram Stories. "News to me," Meyers wrote over a screenshot of a Hollywood Reporter article about the limited series adaptation. "Imagine my surprise when I opened Instagram and this was the first post I saw." This is not the first time that Meyers has weighed in on reports of the beloved 2006 film being revisited. In 2022, the director shut down sequel rumors swiftly on Instagram, as she wrote in a comment on a post reporting that a sequel was getting made with the original main cast all returning: "So many DM's about this — sorry but it's not true. ❤️." Shortly afterwards, Winslet herself weighed in on the speculation. "I read something about that, but it's the first I've heard of it," she told PEOPLE. "I promise you, not an agent or a representative or anyone from the first one around has had any conversation with me about that. Hand on heart, that's never come up." The original cast will not reprise their roles in the limited series, per the report, despite several stars having expressed interest in returning to the world. Law, who played the brother of Winslet's Iris and love interest of Diaz's Amanda, has been particularly vocal about his desire to revisit the magic of The Holiday. Last year, Law, 52, said, "Why not?" when asked about the possibility of a sequel. "I love the idea," he told E! News. He even offered up some ideas on where he thinks his character would be today. "I think Graham still has cardigans and glasses, and reads," he said. "He's probably worried sick about the girls, right? [His] daughters will be 28, 29." Law admitted, though, that he'd "have to ask" Meyers to get the real answer on a sequel. Despite not having any plans to revisit the world, Meyers has been known to tease fans of the movie. She and Law reunited for lunch in December, and she posted a video on Instagram from the reunion."Look who I'm having lunch with today. Jude Law! Congratulations on your so well-deserved star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. That's amazing," she told the actor in the video. "I don't think I've seen you since we wrapped The Holiday," Meyers admitted, before she brought up the sequel rumors. "Speaking of which, I've seen you interviewed a lot, and they keep asking you if there's going to be a sequel. What do you think?" In response, Law made a hilariously adorable reference to his Mr. Napkin Head character from the film. It was obvious that his bit delighted Meyers, but it didn't offer fans any real answer to the question of a sequel. 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. The Holiday can be streamed on Netflix.

Micah Parsons' dad once named Chiefs, Steelers, Lions as preferred trade destinations
With Micah Parsons officially requesting a trade from the Dallas Cowboys, an old clip of his father, Terrence Parsons, talking about preferred destinations for his son in a hypothetical trade scenario has resurfaced. During an appearance on the "Life in the Stands" podcast in December 2024, Parsons' dad stated that his preferred trade landing spots for the superstar edge rusher are the Kansas City Chiefs, Pittsburgh Steelers, and Detroit Lions. "I know Pittsburgh fans are like, 'whoa,' but I'm sorry, him [Micah Parsons] and [T.J.] Watt together would be like cheating," Terrence Parsons said. "Him and [Aidan] Hutchinson together in Detroit would be like cheating. I love it. Kansas City, that's who they are right now." Parsons requested a trade out of Dallas due to the franchise's lack of communication with his agent. The 26-year-old's relationship with the Cowboys and owner Jerry Jones seems to be completely destroyed. Dallas has no plans of trading Parsons, but if they can't agree on a long-term extension with him, they may be forced to move him at some point. Parsons' father's landing spots for the four-time Pro Bowl edge rusher are bold. Adding Parsons to Kansas City's defense would be lethal, while pairing the disgruntled Cowboy with Watt or Hutchinson in Detroit would also be pretty much unstoppable. However, none of the teams Parsons' dad listed as preferred spots have the money to sign Parsons to a record-breaking extension. The Chiefs are slated to have negative $61 million in cap space next offseason, and the Steelers already have two expensive edge rushers in Watt and Alex Highsmith. As for the Lions, the team must prioritize getting an extension done with Hutchinson first, which likely takes them out of the running for Parsons. It's possible that Parsons lands with one of three destinations his dad spoke about during a podcast appearance last year, as all three franchises are playoff contenders, and two are legitimate Super Bowl contenders in Kansas City and Detroit. However, it remains to be seen whether any have the money to sign Parsons to a new deal after trading valuable picks for him while also keeping their core together.
