Jacob Elordi, Lily-Rose Depp Join Forces for Cormac McCarthy's Adaptation of Outer Dark; DEETS About Upcoming Project
The Kissing Booth star Jacob Elordi and Lily-Rose Depp are set to star in the upcoming adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's Outer Dark. The movie will be based on the novel penned in 1948. The project is set to begin production in 2026 and will mark the English film debut of the Oscar-winning filmmaker, Laszlo Nemes. As for the plot of the movie, Outer Dark will revolve around the story of a young woman who bears her brother's baby during the Great Depression. Following the birth of the child, the brother leaves it in the woods to die, but tells his sister that the infant died due to natural causes. Upon learning the truth, the woman sets out to find the baby. As the siblings move their separate ways into the countryside, three men with evil mindsets are on their trail, wishing destruction. Expressing his excitement about the upcoming project, the filmmaker said at the Cannes Film Festival, 'Since reading Outer Dark the first time, it has been my dream to make it into a film and to find the appropriate cinematic language that would do justice to Cormac McCarthy's evocative and cosmological work. Joined by two magnetic actors, I now feel it's possible.' He further added, 'The extraordinary source material is a profound inspiration to build a unique world that vibrates with life and death at the same time. An exciting road movie, a terrible and beautiful journey into the labyrinth of the human soul—this is the ambition I have for Outer Dark.' Moreover, Nemes completes his third film, titled Orphan, which is set to premiere later at the ongoing festival. Apart from the new adaptation, Cormac McCarthy's adaptations, No Country for Old Men and The Road, have been heavily lauded by the audience.

Joey King suffers facial burns in cooking accident, shares blistered photos
Joey King is recovering after a cooking accident left her with multiple blisters on her face and neck. The Kissing Booth actress revealed the incident on Instagram, sharing close-up photos of the burns. 'I burned myself a few days ago by throwing shallots into a pan of hot oil,' King wrote in her post. Her mother responded with humor, saying, 'See, that's why I hate cooking.' Despite the painful injuries, King remains positive. This isn't her first skin struggle—she has also been open about her battle with perioral dermatitis, a condition that causes small red bumps around the mouth, nose, and eyes. Last year, King shared her ongoing skincare challenges, revealing that she had stopped using prescription treatments but was unsure how to manage flare-ups. King's latest mishap has prompted her to prioritize kitchen safety, emphasizing the importance of proper handling of hot oil. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, first-degree burns can cause pain and scarring if not treated correctly. She appears to be following recommended treatments, including cool water, petroleum jelly, and sun protection. Although King recently experimented with bold beauty changes—including dyeing her eyebrows for a magazine party, which her mother disapproved of—her focus now is on healing from her burns. Fans have flooded her comments with well wishes, hoping for a speedy recovery.

In July 2024, the Family Affair actress shared her skincare routine while opening up about her recent frustrations with perioral dermatitis. While using a small razor to dermaplane her face, the star said she's been struggling with perioral dermatitis for the last seven months. The skin condition, also known as POD, causes small red bumps to form around the eyes, nose or mouth, according to the American Academy of Dermatology Association. "I'm trying to stop my prescription stuff to make it go away on its own," King said at the time. "I just stopped it like a week ago, I started using my other skincare and, you can't really see it right now, but it's like coming back. And I have literally no idea what to do about it." She also captioned the post: "Any tips for the dermatitis would be greatly appreciated." Read the original article on People
