He has also won the Royal Rumble twice, claimed victory in the Money in the Bank match, and earned the prestigious Grand Slam Champion title.

Outside the ring, Randy Orton is known for treating fans with respect and avoiding unnecessary controversies. However, a former WWE wrestler from the ‘divas era’ has accused him of forcing a female wrestler to leave the company.

Academy Award-winning actor Robert De Niro will lead the new crime thriller and Michelle Monaghan, Adam Scott (Mark Scout in Severance), Michael Keaton (Spotlight), and more will also star.

Drop debuted with a perfect score following its limited release. However, as the film celebrated its wide release on Apr. 11, Drop has lost its perfect score, and has also failed the impress the audiences.

If you had to guess what social media site is growing faster than the rest, which would you pick? TikTok? YouTube? X?

The answer is: none of the above (sort of). According to the latest data from eMarketer, the fastest-growing social media site out there is actually Reddit, where adult users in the U.S. are spending 3.5% more time there per day than they were in Q1 2024. That brings it up to 34 minutes on average per day, per user.

3.5% might not seem like a lot, but Reddit and Instagram are the only two sites in the positives, eMarketer found. Instagram’s gain has been just 0.3% year-over-year.

Everyone else? Is in the negatives. Time spent on Facebook has gone down by 2.6% (dropping it to 31 minutes), time spent on both Snapchat and X has gone down 3.4% (31 minutes), and finally–perhaps surprisingly–time spent on TikTok has dropped by a whopping 7% from Q...

Before launching a hit wellness app, blogger Belle Gibson told her Instagram followers she’d been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. Initially given only four months to live, Gibson miraculously survived for years — due in large part to her healthy diet and lifestyle. As her popularity (and net worth) soared, she became an overnight success and a hero to many living with cancer. Except every part of Gibson’s story was based on lies. The docuseries The Search for Instagram’s Worst Con Artistinvestigates Gibson’s many claims, as well as her rise and fall from the spotlight, all of which inspired the series Apple Cider Vinegar starring Kaitlyn Dever.

A number of cameos were made on The Office, but there's one that shouldn't have been revealed to the public before the episode aired. The show, which first came to TV in 2005, is graced with a large cast of core characters, all of whom are necessary to the plot. Unlike its two-seasoned predecessor, The Office had plenty of time to dive into the lives of Michael, Jim, Pam, Dwight and Angela, to name but a few. Each character had his or her place, and, as such, the series has remained one of the best sitcoms throughout the 20 years it's been around. Numerous awards nominations were secured, including Steve Carell winning Best Actor in a Television Series – Musical or Comedy at the Golden Globes in 2006 for his leading role as Michael Scott. A lot of viewers were aware of the UK show of the same name that came first.

As viral marketing stunts go, there’s a somewhat meta feel to cramming the cast of Severance into a glass box at New York City’s Grand Central Station.

Adam Scott, Patricia Arquette, Britt Lower, Zach Cherry, and Tramell Tillman were among those who brought the Lumon Industries office to life for a crowd of enraptured commuters.

Overseeing it all was Ben Stiller, director of the Apple TV+ series, which is set to return for its second season on January 17.

Dan Erickson’s drama centers around a surgical procedure that separates the work self from the off-hours self, meaning the Lumon crew were very much on the clock at Grand Central.

For nearly a decade — since comedy legend Lily Tomlin played a salty septuagenarian in Paul Weitz’s “Grandma” — I’ve been trying to track down a copy of her one-woman show, “The Search for Signs of Intelligent Life in the Universe.”

Well, the search is over.

Last week, on Friday night, Tomlin sat down with “Frankie and Grace” co-star and frequent collaborator Jane Fonda for the first public screening of the newly restored film, which made its debut at RescueFest — IndieCollect’s first-ever showcase of films restored by the organization — in Los Angeles.

Long out of print and nearly always incomplete, the feature version (directed and shot by John Bailey) was released in 1991, six years after Tomlin performed — and perfected — her show live at New York’s Plymouth Theater.

Leonard Nimoy's 1984 film "Star Trek III: The Search for Spock" is one of the most significant -- and tragic -- films in the "Star Trek" franchise. Recall that Spock (Nimoy) died at the end of "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan," and that his body was launched onto the surface of the newly-created Genesis planet.

In "The Search for Spock," however, circumstances led Admiral Kirk (William Shatner) to believe that Spock could be resurrected. For one, Spock shunted a copy of his consciousness into the brain of Dr. McCoy (DeForest Kelley) shortly before his death. Also, the Genesis world, given its propensity for hyper-fast evolution, managed to create an infant clone of Spock's body, a fact discovered by Saavik (Robin Curtis) and Kirk's son David (Merritt Butrick).

“I keep slipping into Valerie Cherish, don’t I?” Meredith Hagner has done plenty of press in her career, particularly for her breakout role in Search Party and the Vacation Friends franchise, but this is the first time she’s sat down for a meal and really rehashed her full biography with a recorder running. She’s concerned she’s trafficking in the same acting cliches as Lisa Kudrow’s famously deluded character in The Comeback.

But the cliches along the 37-year-old’s career path sound novel. They’re almost from another time.
