Actor Nicknamed 'Cuban Brad Pitt' Arrested in Florida
Longtime actor William Levy, also known as the "Cuban Brad Pitt," has had a rough start to his week. According to reports, Levy, 44, was arrested in Weston, Florida Monday by the Broward Sheriff's Office. Levy was booked into Broward County Jail and charged disorderly intoxication in a public place, causing a disturbance and trespassing. As of Tuesday afternoon, Levy reportedly remained behind bars after appearing in court. Other details of his arrest have not been released at this time. A native of Cojimar, Cuba, Levy emigrated to Miami when he was 14 years old. After getting started as a model, he broke into acting in 2006. Known for his roles in telenovelas, Levy was a contestant on season 14 of Dancing With the Stars back in 2012. He was partnered with dancer Cheryl Burke and finished third behind singer Katherine Jenkins and partner Mark Ballas and the winning tandem of NFL wide receiver Donald Driver and partner Peta Murgatroyd. Levy went on to appear in the movies "Girls Trip," "Resident Evil: The Final Chapter," and Tyler Perry's 'Addicted.' Last year, Levy and his on-and-off girlfriend, actress Elizabeth Gutierrez, with whom he has two children, were involved in a viral incident outside of their former home. Gutierrez told responding officers that Kailey, the couple's daughter, entered the home to retrieve an item and encountered an unknown woman who attempted to 'hide.' The teenager also accused her father of pushing her. However, a police search of the house uncovered only Levy and a cleaning woman, and cops said there was no evidence to indicate a physical confrontation. 'It's my house, I was alone. Kailey knocks on the door, I don't know what's happening. I don't push her, I put my hand there [to prevent it from opening] ... You can't come in here, this is my room, my privacy," Levy said in a statement at the time.

New "Resident Evil" Movie in Works from "Barbarian" Director Zach Cregger
Yara Sameh A new take on the Resident Evil franchise is on the way from Barbarian director Zach Cregger, who will write and direct the latest entry in the zombie-virus saga, which is the subject of a fierce bidding war. The survival horror Resident Evil franchise has come a long way since its first appearance as a PlayStation game in the 1990s. Spawning several game sequels, a successful but panned movie franchise starring Milla Jovovich, and a number of anime movies, the live-action franchise appeared to come to an end with "Resident Evil: The Final Chapter" in 2016. However, horror movies with 'The Final Chapter' as a subtitle rarely live up to the promise, and no one believed that this was the last time Resident Evil would be adapted. That came in 2021's "Welcome to Raccoon City", one of the only entries to faithfully adapt the original video games, which still failed to impress critics, but was appreciated by those who played the first Resident Evil games almost three decades earlier. Afterward, Resident Evil was revived again in a Netflix TV series, which enlisted a talented cast including the late Lance Reddick, scored higher than the movies with critics, but was a massive disappointment to audiences and was canceled after a single season. The Resident Evil games were originally set in a creepy old mansion and the surrounding area of Raccoon City. However, throughout the series, the storylines have expanded into some very different areas, leaving behind the original premise to deliver something less repetitive. Per The Hollywood Reporter, Cregger's Resident Evil movie will instead be rehashing the same old story once again and will 'take the title back to its horror roots and be more faithful to the initial games.' However, "Welcome to Raccoon City" not only delivered something that remained faithful to the first games of the franchise but even inserted several cut-scenes from the games directly into it. It made the decision for the new movie to seemingly follow suit a little questionable, however, Cragger seriously impressed with "Barbarian", so he could be the one to finally deliver a Resident Evil movie that redeems the several misfires. Before Cragger gets his claws into the Resident Evil franchise, he will be releasing the new movie "Weapons", in cinemas on January 16, 2026, which has been called 'a multi and inter-related story horror epic that tonally is in the vein of Magnolia.'
