I Want What They Have, Friendship Edition: Jeremy Allen White and Austin Butler
Love is a many-splendored thing, especially when you're gawking at it from the outside. In this new column, we'll be examining the celebrity couples—or, occasionally, friend pairs—who give us hope for our own romantic futures as we try to learn what we can from their well-documented bonds If there's one thing that's always been true about me, it's that I love it when guys hang out. Did I express this enjoyment in college by heckling frat boys to 'KISS ALREADY' every time they made the mistake of walking past my gay little friend group on the quad? Absolutely, and I'm trying to tone it down now, as a 31-year-old woman, but I have to admit that I squealed with preadolescent joy when I saw the recent paparazzi photos of Jeremy Allen White and Austin Butler gently bro-ing out at a Colorado Rockies vs. Chicago Cubs game. Jeremy Allen White, Austin Butler, David Harbour, and Jason Batema at the Cubs game on Monday. There's so much to love about this outing (peep those very different yet casually complementary baseball caps!), but I think my favorite aspect of the photos is the fact that the strong-jawed hunks at its center—with all due respect to Jason Bateman and David Harbour, who were also there but did not get the cute-little-chapeau memo—are set to co-star in an A24 movie called…wait for it…Enemies. But they're not enemies, they're friends! The jokes write themselves! (Okay, I wrote that one, but the point stands. I'm a devoted scholar of Jeremy Allen White lore, so I can say with confidence that the only thing more charming than his farmer's-market flower addiction is his commitment to the Cubs. (I also happen to like that he still smokes, but that's my own emotional baggage to sort through.) I mean, if you're going to star in two shows about Chicago, you need to walk the walk—and all the better if you have an extremely chiseled male bestie to walk alongside you. Dedicated reporter that I am, I googled 'Austin Butler sports' to see if attending games is a regular thing for the lanky leading man, and found that he discussed his passion for New York-based athletic franchises in an interview with Hero Magazine last year. 'I used to only be a Lakers fan, but now I'm a Lakers and a Knicks fan. After being in New York for so long, I went to so many Knicks games that I became a Knicks fan.' (And yet, he's silent on the Mets vs. Yankees hometown rivalry!) Clearly, if Butler wants to stay in White's good graces—not to mention the inner sanctum of his cool-guy friend group—he's going to need to brush up on his baseball-viewing skills. After all, why not? Like White, he has a great face for hats!

Jeremy Allen White and Austin Butler Join Forces for A24's Crime Thriller ENEMIES — GeekTyrant
Jeremy Allen White and Austin Butler are teaming up for Enemies , a gritty new crime saga from The Standoff at Sparrow Creek filmmaker Henry Dunham. The project is set up at A24, and cameras are set to roll this summer in Chicago on the $25 million production. It's shaping up to be one hell of a ride. The story centers on a relentless detective and a notorious contract killer locked in a brutal, high-stakes game of cat and mouse. White, fresh off two Emmy wins for The Bear , and Butler, still riding high from Elvis and Dune: Part Two , are set to go head-to-head in what sounds like a tense, psychological showdown. Dunham is writing and directing, bringing his knack for tight, character-driven tension to the table. I suspect that the movie will be a slow burn story with sharp dialogue, and lots of moral murk. The film is being produced by Ari Aster and Lars Knudsen of Square Peg, with Alejandro De Leon also producing and Josh Bachove executive producing. Aster, best known for Hereditary and Midsommar , is clearly keeping busy, his latest directorial effort, Eddington , a COVID-era western starring Pedro Pascal and Joaquin Phoenix, just made its Cannes debut. Enemies adds to A24's slate, which also includes Spike Lee's High and Low remake ( Highest 2 Lowest ), which reunites the director with Denzel Washington for the fifth time. That project, set in New York's music world.

Kaia Gerber & Lewis Pullman Fuel Romance Rumours With Date Night

(Photo by Gilbert Flores/Variety via Getty Images) It seems Kaia Gerber has swiftly moved on following her quiet split from Elvis star Austin Butler. Over the past few months, the model/actress has been sparking whispers of a budding romance with another actor, Emmy-nominated actor Lewis Pullman. The pair were recently seen attending a performance of The Picture of Dorian Gray on Broadway, starring Succession 's Sarah Snook. But it wasn't just the Wildean drama drawing attention. 'They are definitely together,' an eyewitness told Page Six , adding that Gerber rested her head on Pullman's shoulder throughout the show. The latest date night spotting follows a more subtle debut: Gerber's appearance at Pullman's birthday in Los Angeles this January. Photos (see here) from the celebration show the model holding the actor's arm affectionately, fuelling early speculation. 'They've been spending time together the last few weeks,' a source told People . 'They're a cute couple and very low-key.' So, who is the man catching the 23-year-old's eye? Pullman, 32, is also a Hollywood legacy—son of actor Bill Pullman and dancer Tamara Hurwitz—but, like Gerber, has carved his own path in the industry. After breakout roles in Top Gun: Maverick and Lessons in Chemistry , Pullman is riding a wave of critical acclaim, earning Emmy and Critics' Choice nominations in 2024. Lewis Pullman attends the World Premiere of Marvel Studios' 'Captain America: Brave New World' at TCL Chinese Theatre on February 11, 2025 in Hollywood, California.

He seemingly has a type, too, having previously dated Rainey Qualley, daughter of actress Andie MacDowell. Gerber and Butler began dating in late 2021 and only called it quits towards the end of 2024, according to TMZ . Kaia Gerber and Austin Butler attend the 2023 Vanity Fair Oscar Party Hosted By Radhika Jones at Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts on March 12, 2023 in Beverly Hills, California. (Photo by John Shearer/WireImage) While the signs point to something quietly blossoming, Gerber and Pullman have yet to confirm their relationship. Although, considering the Bottoms star and Butler famously made their red carpet debut at the 2022 Met Gala after less than a year of dating, it's safe to say we may not be waiting too long for an official update.
