Dave Franco addresses rumours over Luigi Mangione biopic
Dave Franco has been frequently fan-cast for a potential Luigi Mangione biopic, and the resemblance can definitely be seen. The killing of UnitedHealthCare CEO Brian Thompson was one of the most explosive stories from last year, and it feels like a matter of time before a movie is made about it. Luigi Mangione allegedly shot the 50-year-old in broad daylight in Manhattan and subsequently disappeared for a few days. Luigi Mangione could face the death penalty. Pic: Curtis Means – Pool/Getty Images The case was one of the most talked-about moments of the year, including when he was found and arrested. Fans noticed the resemblance between the 27-year-old and Dave Franco fairly quickly and naturally fan-casted him in whatever form of 'entertainment' eventually comes out of the case. During his appearance on 'Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen', a fan asked Dave about the possibility of playing the role and the actor made it clear that while no talks have been had, he would be open to it. The 'Now You See Me' star said: 'Oh, how do I answer this… no one has approached me about it yet, I'll say that. 'More people in my life reached out about this exact thing than anything else that has ever happened … So let's just say I'm open if it's the right people, and let's leave it at that.' Dave Franco bears quite the resemblance to Luigi. Pic: Raymond Hall/GC Images The Mangione case is of course still ongoing so it's not surprising that the 40-year-old was careful about his response to the question. Luigi is currently locked up at the Metropolitan Detention Centre in Brooklyn, New York, but hasn't been sentenced. At this point, a biopic on this case wouldn't be possible to go forward with, as its outcome has yet to be determined. The federal charges that he is up against are eligible for the death penalty, which federal prosecutors have said they intend to pursue. Luigi is currently locked up in Brooklyn. Pic:His legal team recently accused the Manhattan District Attorney's office of wrongfully obtaining his medical records by compelling Aetna, a health insurance company, to turn over confidential information, which violates health privacy laws. His attorneys also accused the DA's office of listening to a recording of a phone call with their client and they are seeking to have at least two of the counts against him thrown out. Luigi has pleaded not guilty and his next court date is set for mid September.

This ‘Top Gun' star visited S.F. for its Grateful Dead 60th anniversary celebration
Actor Miles Teller and television personality Andy Cohen were among the tens of thousands of Deadheads flowing through Golden Gate Park last weekend to celebrate the lasting legacy of the Grateful Dead. The two were photographed together during one of Dead & Company's sold-out shows at the Polo Field, posing with black sunglasses against the backdrop of the event's packed crowd. Cohen, host of Bravo's late-night talk show 'Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen,' wore a yellow and grey tie dye hoodie, while the ' Top Gun: Maverick ' star had on a white T-shirt and denim jacket. The image was shared by internet personality Maurice Aouad on Tuesday, Aug. 5, as part of a carousel of film photos that he took over the three-day outdoor event, which kicked off Friday, Aug. 1, with bluegrass musician Billy Strings as the opening act. Cohen reposted the image to his Instagram story later that day. Another photo of Cohen and Teller at Golden Gate Park, shared to Instagram by the New York Post's Page Six on Monday, Aug. 4, shows the two taking a selfie amid the crowd, with the stage behind them. The caption notes that the image came from Cohen's Instagram account, but his post seems to have expired since then. It is unclear if they attended all three of Dead & Company's San Francisco concerts, but the two photos appear to have been taken on the same day. Both Teller and Cohen have never been subtle about their Deadheads status. Cohen even has a Highlight saved to his Instagram profile titled 'Grateful Stuff,' filled with archived story posts of his experiences at Dead & Company concerts. Teller previously revealed that fans sent him Grateful Dead T-shirts after he and his wife, Keleigh Sperry Teller, lost their Los Angeles home to the Palisades fire at the start of the year. He also recounted a "spiritual experience' that he had while watching Grateful Dead founding member Bob Weir perform during college. 'From then on, that was it,' Teller told NME Magazine. 'I was sold.' The historic weekend celebrated the legacy of the Bay Area jam band and its members, old and new. Festivities kicked off Thursday, July 31, with the Heart of Town concert series. The three-night event was organized by Grahame Lesh, son of late Grateful Dead bassist Phil Lesh, and featured appearances by Dallas musician Stephen Stills, Los Angeles folk rock group Dawes and Melvin Seals, longtime member of the Jerry Garcia Band . A number of free celebrations took place in tandem, from the open-air, city-sanctioned Shakedown Street market to the Jerry Garcia Street naming event and Dead drummer Mickey Hart's ' Art at the Edge of Magic ' exhibition at Haight Street Art Center.

‘Summer House' star Ciara Miller doesn't care if Lexi Wood leaves the show: ‘I'll never have to see her again'
Ciara Miller remains unbothered. The 'Summer House' star, 29, addressed her relationship with Lexi Wood amid their drama over co-star Jesse Solomon in an exclusive interview with The Post while promoting her partnership with Mattress Firm for Nurse Appreciation Month. Miller told The Post that she's 'totally not' surprised by Wood's recent comments about her. 'And here's the thing, I don't care,' Miller said. 'If she's here next year, great, but if she's not, see ya, I'll never have to see her again.' 13 Ciara Miller at the 'Summer House' Season 8 reunion.

'I just don't care, honestly.' Last month, Wood appeared on Page Six's 'Virtual Reali-Tea Podcast' and accused Miller and her ex-fling Solomon, 31, of skipping her birthday party to hang out together. Wood also said she was 'not necessarily surprised' by her co-stars' flirty social media interactions. 13 Ciara Miller at the Us Weekly + Maidenform Reality Star Style Awards in NYC on April 22, 2025.

And on Wednesday's episode of 'The Viall Files,' Wood claimed that Miller 'asked me not to speak good or bad' about her and Solomon. Host Nick Viall then asked Wood, 'She's ask you to keep her name out of your mouth?' to which Wood confirmed. 'I just want to respect what she wants,' Wood said, before calling out the fact that Miller talked about her on 'WWHL.' 13 Jesse Solomon on 'Summer House.' 13 Jesse Solomon at The Boys of Bravo's 'Summer House' interview in NYC.

Miller also gave insight into her experience filming the Season 9 reunion on April 24. 'This is kind of crazy… I think we had a good time at this reunion,' she told The Post. 'We had a lot of giggles and despite all the other stuff, there was a ton of giggles at this reunion.' 'I can definitely say it's been a totally different vibe than some of our past reunions,' Miller continued. 'I like doing the reunion because you can kind of leave it all out on the table, and then we can just kind of not see each other until this next season starts.' 13 The cast of 'Summer House' Season 9.

While her co-star Paige DeSorbo recently hinted at wanting to leave the series soon, Miller isn't ready to say goodbye to the Hamptons just yet. 'I'm the youngest of the show. So I don't know. I feel like we still have more things to tell,' Miller told The Post. 13 Lexi Wood at the 'Summer House' Season 9 premiere party.

It's so not in our hands. But I think there's still more to tell.' But one thing Miller is sure of is wanting a different house in the Hamptons next season. 'It's time. I think that backyard is amazing. I think it's lovely. We have thrown some epic parties, but we've been in that house for almost four years now,' she said. 'I think we need to switch up a different vibe. I think it will bring a different energy.' 13 Amanda Batula, Ciara Miller, Paige DeSorbo in 'Summer House' Season 8. Bryan Bedder/Bravo 'Sometimes when we keep doing the same thing, it becomes kind of stale,' Miller admitted. 'And if the network's listening, we would love a new house. But who am I? I'm not signing off. I'm not paying that bill.' In honor of Nurse Appreciation Week (May 6–12), Ciara has partnered with Mattress Firm for a special event at their NYC Chelsea location on Monday, May 12. She'll host a fan meet-and-greet, celebrate nurses with exclusive giveaways, and more. 'The least that I could do, me being in the position that I am, is try to raise awareness around Nurses Week and also have people just think about their nurses because truly the hospital doesn't function without [them],' she told The Post. 13 Ciara Miller at the launch party for Cadillac F1 Team at Queen Miami Beach on May 3, 2025.

'Summer House' airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo. New episodes stream Thursdays on Peacock.
