Ariana Grande's Album Returns Just Ahead Of ‘Wicked: For Good'
Ariana Grande's Eternal Sunshine returns to four U.K. charts as fans revisit her catalog ahead of ... More her Wicked: For Good film and soundtrack release. HOLLYWOOD, CALIFORNIA - MARCH 02: Ariana Grande performs onstage during the 97th Annual Oscars at Dolby Theatre on March 02, 2025 in Hollywood, California. (Photo by) In a few months, Ariana Grande will release a new album, but fans shouldn't expect a full collection of brand new pop tunes. The singer and actress is set to star in Wicked: For Good, the second part of the Wicked musical blockbuster, which will hit theaters this fall. The Grammy winner, alongside her co-star Cynthia Erivo, was credited on the original Wicked soundtrack, and since the sequel features a number of songs from the Broadway musical, as well as two original compositions, it's likely both stars will be named again. Ahead of that project dropping, fans in the United Kingdom have pushed Grande's most recent solo effort back onto several tallies, and some of her biggest career smashes are climbing once again as well. Ariana Grande's Eternal Sunshine Rebounds Grande's album Eternal Sunshine can currently be found on four charts in the U.K., and it returns to half of them. The set surges on both the Official Albums and Official Albums Streaming lists, lifting dozens of spaces at once. At the same time, it also becomes a bestseller again, reappearing on the Official Physical Albums and Official Albums Sales rankings, landing at Nos. 81 and 88, respectively. Eternal Sunshine and Brighter Days Ahead Grande originally released Eternal Sunshine in March 2024, when it became another No. 1 on rankings all around the world. The singer promoted several singles from the project, including "Yes, And?" and "We Can't Be Friends (Wait for Your Love)," both of which reached the top 10 in dozens of markets. A year later, in March 2025, Grande issued Eternal Sunshine Deluxe: Brighter Days Ahead, which included six new songs and a handful of remixes. That re-release returned the project to the charts, though its momentum slowed after a few frames. Still, interest in the Grammy-nominated effort apparently remains relatively high, especially this frame. Ariana Grande's Old Hits Surge — Even a Holiday Favorite Three of Grande's singles appear on the same tally in the U.K. this frame, and none come from Eternal Sunshine or Wicked. "Break Free" and "Problem," her collaboration with Iggy Azalea, reappear on the Official Physical Singles chart at Nos. 77 and 96, respectively. They're joined by her holiday favorite "Santa Tell Me," which remains present despite the fact that it's the middle of the summer. That Christmas classic dips 20 spots, but it will likely rebound as the end of the year approaches.

Ben Stiller, Robert De Niro's comedy film 'Meet The Parents 4' gets a new title
The Ben Stiller and Robert De Niro starrer Meet the Parents 4 has officially been renamed Focker in Law, reported Variety. The fourth instalment of the series will also star Blythe Danner, Teri Polo and Owen Wilson, with singer Ariana Grande joining the cast. The new film's title references the surname of Stiller's character, Greg Focker, in the film. In the original movie, Stiller's character endures a lot of painfully awkward hijinks while visiting his girlfriend's parents for the first time. Meet the Parents, which recently celebrated its 25th anniversary, became a box office blockbuster with $330 million (Dh1.2 billion) worldwide. This comedy film then spawned two commercially successful sequels: 2004's Meet the Fockers (which introduced Greg's parents, Barbra Streisand and Dustin Hoffman) and 2010's Little Fockers. Stiller teased the next instalment during a 25th anniversary screening of Meet the Parents, saying they only returned because they found an "organic reason" to revisit these characters, reported Variety. "What spurred the idea is that I'm the age that Bob was when we did the first movie. It felt like a mirror to the first film, where one of my kids is thinking about introducing his person to the family," Stiller was quoted as saying by Variety. De Niro revealed he's read the screenplay, though he stopped short of offering any plot details. "The script is really fun. I'm looking forward to it," he said. Focker in Law is directed by John Hamburg. It is slated to hit theatres on November 25, 2026.
