Films making their world premieres include Ansari's 'Good Fortune,' starring Keanu Reeves as an angel trying to teach a struggling man (Ansari) a lesson; David Michod's 'Christy,' with Sweeney playing the boxer Christy Martin; and Alice Winocour's 'Couture,' starring Jolie as an American filmmaker attending Paris Fashion Week. Those films join previously announced TIFF world premieres including Rian Johnson's 'Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery.' All three of Johnson's 'Knives Out' films have premiered in Toronto. Also debuting in Toronto will be Derek Cianfrance's 'Roofman,' starring Channing Tatum as a struggling father turned thief; Nia DaCosta's Ibsen adaptation 'Hedda,' starring Tessa Thompson; Nicholas Hytner's WWI drama 'The Choral,' with Ralph Fiennes; Steven Soderbergh's third 2025 release, 'The Christophers'; Hikari's 'Rental Family,' starring Brendan Fraser as an American actor in Japan; and Paul Greengrass' 'The Lost Bus,' with Matthew McConaughey as a bus driver navigating California's 2018 Camp Fire.

The Toronto International Film Festival will kick off Sept. 4 with the debut of the documentary 'John Candy: I Like Me,' from director Colin Hanks and producer Ryan Reynolds. The festival runs through Sept. 14. Toronto has long been one of the prized launching pads to the fall movie season, though many of the top films often first go to the Venice or Telluride film festivals. This year, that includes TIFF selections like Chloe Zhao's 'Hamnet,' Guillermo del Toro's 'Frankenstein' and Edward Berger's 'Ballad of a Smaller Player.' The designation of those premieres suggests 'Frankenstein' will first play Venice, while the other two will likely play both Venice and Telluride. Other notable films premiering in Toronto include James Vanderbilt's Nuremberg trials drama 'Nuremberg,' with Rami Malik and Russell Crowe; Rachel Lee Goldenberg's 'Swiped,' starring Lily James as Bumble founder Whitney Wolfe Herd; and Agnieszka Holland's Franz Kafka drama 'Franz.'

Several directorial debuts will be landing in Toronto including those by Brian Cox ('Glenrothan') and Maude Apatow ('Poetic License'). Other selections include 'Bad Apples,' with Saoirse Ronan as a teacher with a poorly behaved student; 'Easy Waltz,' a Las Vegas-set drama starring Vince Vaughn and Al Pacino; and Alex Winter's 'Adulthood.' A number of standouts from May's Cannes Film Festival will also play in Toronto, such as Jafar Panahi's Palme d'Or winner 'It Was Just an Accident,' Joachim Trier's 'Sentimental Value,' Oliver Laxe's 'Sirat' and Richard Linklater's 'Nouvelle Vague.'

Create Account ORLANDO, Fla. — Backstreet Boys singer Brian Littrell says a local Florida sheriff's office isn't doing enough to protect his multimillion-dollar beachfront property from trespassers and is asking a judge for an order commanding deputies to do so. The petition filed last month by Littrell's company in a Florida Panhandle county touches on a perennial tug-of-war between usually-wealthy oceanfront property owners and beach-loving members of the public, especially in Florida, which has 825 miles of sandy beaches. Under Florida law, any sand on a beach below the high tide water mark is public. Many homeowners own the sand down to the average high-water line, though some counties over the decades have passed local ordinances that let the public use otherwise private beaches for sunbathing, fishing and walking if people have historically had access for those purposes.

Property records show that Littrell's company purchased the property in Santa Rosa Beach in Walton County in 2023 for $3.8 million. A spokeswoman for the Walton County Sheriff's Office said Wednesday that the office doesn't comment on pending litigation. 'The Walton County Sheriff's Office prides itself on handling every situation, call for service, or interaction with professionalism using a customer service approach,' public information officer Lindsey Darby said in an email. 'This has always been our philosophy and will remain so moving forward.' In the petition, Littrell's company said that chairs, umbrellas and small tables had been put out on the beach, as well as 'No Trespassing' signs, to mark it as private property. But that effort had been in vain 'as numerous trespassers have set out to antagonize, bully, and harass the Littrell family by regularly, every day, trespassing,' according to the petition. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. The sheriff's office has refused requests to remove trespassers or charge them, and the family has had to hire private security, the petition said. Walton County, which has become home to several famous property owners besides Littrell over the past two decades, has been at the center of a recent fight between private property owners and the public over access to beaches. A 2018 Florida law that stemmed from a Walton County ordinance blocked any local government from passing ordinances dealing with public beach access until affected homeowners were notified, a public hearing was held and a court had determined whether a private beach was historically open to the public. Florida lawmakers this year approved legislation that restored control back to local authorities, and Gov. Ron DeSantis signed it into law last month in Santa Rosa Beach, the beach town where Littrell's house is located. RECOMMENDED VIDEO Love concerts, but can't make it to the venue?

The theft of the materials, stored on five thumb drives, happened on July 8, two days before Beyonce began a four-day residency at Atlanta's Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Beyonce was set to take the stage Monday evening for her last night in the city. The Atlanta Police Department said in a news release Monday it has secured an arrest warrant for a suspect whose identity was withheld. Two MacBook laptops, Apple headphones, as well as luxury clothing and accessories were also reported stolen, according to the incident report. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Beyonce's choreographer, Christopher Grant, and dancer Diandre Blue told police they parked their rental car, a 2024 Jeep Wagoneer, at a food hall in the city at about 8:09 p.m. The pair returned to the car just after 9 p.m. to discover the trunk window had been damaged and two suitcases had been taken. Grant told officers that 'he was also carrying some personal sensitive information for the musician Beyonce,' the police incident report stated. The report identifies a possible suspect vehicle as a 2025 red Hyundai Elantra. Responding officers were able to identify 'light prints' at the scene, and security cameras in the parking lot captured the incident, according to the report. Officers canvassed an area where the stolen laptop and headphones were tracked by using the devices' location services, the report stated. Beyonce kicked off her highly-anticipated tour in late April, taking her Grammy-winning album, Cowboy Carter , to stadiums in the U.S. and Europe. The singer will end her tour with two Las Vegas nights in late July. RECOMMENDED VIDEO Love concerts, but can't make it to the venue?
