Since rising through Hollywood's ranks as a child star in the likes of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Finding Neverland, and The Spiderwick Chronicles, Freddie Highmore has broken the curse that often surrounds successful child stars and broken into a triumphant acting career as an adult. Still only 33 years of age, although he still looks much younger, Highmore has dazzled and delighted in the likes of Bates Motel as the iconic Norman Bates, Spanish heist thriller The Vault, and most notably as Shaun Murphy in The Good Doctor, which officially ended last year.

After reuniting with some of Elsbeth‘s biggest guests for a star-studded musical Season 2 finale, Carrie Preston is ready to apprehend more of the Great White Way.
While attending last weekend’s 78th Tony Awards, the Emmy-winning actress teased who from Broadway she’d like to work with on an upcoming season of the CBS procedural comedy drama.
“There’s so many people on this red carpet that I’ve met tonight or that I know. I always ask them, ‘Do you wanna be on the show? Because I’ll pass it along,'” she told Us Weekly at the awards show.
Preston added, “So I saw Brooke Shields tonight. I saw Celia Keenan-Bolger tonight. Of course Cole Escola. I’d like to see if we can round up pretty much everybody on Broadway and get them on.”

Travolta and a team of misfits are forced to raid a tawdry gambling den, but the stakes are disappointingly low in this ineptly made work
Here is a cheap-ass knockoff of Ocean’s Eleven starring John Travolta that makes the Soderbergh film look like something by Andrei Tarkovsky or Ingmar Bergman. High Rollers is a heart-slowing work of staggering stupidity and charmlessness, ineptly made and quite frankly dull except when its flaws become so egregious you can’t help but guffaw.
The idea is that Mason Goddard leads a rodent pack of skilled thieves and conmen. The gang is first met at the beach wedding of two of the group’s younger members, tech whiz Link and dim hunk Caras (Swen Temmel). Alas, the nuptials are interrupted when international criminal Salazar (Danny Pardo) and his henchmen swoop in and kidnap Mason’s wife Amelia. Salazar demands that Mason and his crew,...

A beautiful drifter tries to make it in the strip clubs of Las Vegas in this absurd film – now a cult favourite thanks to its maniacal acting and directing
Martin Scorsese’s Casino wasn’t the only Las Vegas movie of 1995, there was also Showgirls – now on rerelease for its 30th anniversary – whose pure bizarreness has over three decades achieved its own identity, like Dick Van Dyke’s cockney accent in Mary Poppins. It is the softcore erotic drama from screenwriter Joe Eszterhas and director Paul Verhoeven that has made a slow ascent from critical flop to kitsch cult favourite and now to a supposed tongue-out-of-cheek classic melodrama. Maybe it’s the last great mainstream exploitation picture, a film which owns and flaunts its crassness; a bi-curious catfight version of All About Eve or Pretty Woman.

What did she do with that chicken drumstick? Did she really play the jaw harp for the Scissor Sisters? As her new movie High Rollers is released, the actor is ready to answer all
Gina Gershon has been on our screens for nearly 40 years, during which she has starred in scene-stealing roles opposite some of Hollywood’s biggest actors. In her more likable moments, she orders an orgasm from cocktail-maker Tom Cruise in Cocktail (“How many would you like?” “Multiple” – fnar fnar) and takes a bullet for Nicolas Cage in Face/Off. In her less likable (but equally scene-stealing) moments, she receives a lapdance from – and gets pushed down the stairs by – Elizabeth Berkley in Showgirls, chops Val Kilmer into small pieces in Breathless, gets murdered under the supposed watch of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jim Belushi in Red Heat, and is forced by Matthew McConaughey to simulate oral sex on a chicken drumstick in Killer Joe.

With Thanksgiving months away, Nell Verlaque is getting ready for a second serving of Eli Roth‘s seasonal slasher.
At last Wednesday’s premiere of Prime Video‘s Overcompensating, the actress told Deadline that she’s “really excited” to get into production on the sequel to 2023’s Thanksgiving, which she hopes to film after completing production on her upcoming MGM+ series American Classic.
“I think we will be filming this year,” said Verlaque on the red carpet at the Hollywood Palladium. “I actually just saw Eli, and we’re talking about some plot points, so I’m really excited for it.”
With the first installment surpassing $46 million worldwide and Certified Fresh at 84% on Rotten Tomatoes, Roth announced a sequel on Instagram a few weeks after the original’s premiere in November 2023.

“Thanksgiving” star Nell Verlaque can’t wait to shoot the sequel to the surprise box office hit.
Her character Jessica is one of the few who survived director and co-writer Eli Roth’s first Turkey-time holiday slasher.
Verlaque tells me she’s read parts of the follow-up script and Roth has shared some more ideas with her.
“I would like to get covered in blood,” she told me at the premiere of Benito Skinner’s new Prime Video comedy series, “Overcompensating.”
That’s the least gruesome of her ideas. “I told him I really wanted to be tortured,” Verlaque said. “Like fully pained [and] tortured.”
She said of Roth’s boundary-pushing work, “I think it’s more fun as an actor. The crazier, the better for me.”
The first film revolved around a serial killer who dresses like a 17th-century pilgrim and terrorizes residents of Plymouth, Mass., during the holiday season.

Mason Goddard (John Travolta) returns with his ragtag crew for a casino caper that picks up where Cash Out left off—though you’d never know it if you hadn’t seen the predecessor. They sweep from a sun-baked beach wedding straight into a drone-drift cinematics sequence, chasing a digitized MacGuffin through the glittering halls of Zade Black’s Louisiana palace.
In this sequel-lite, the South’s storied gambling culture doubles as a metaphorical crucible: where chance and greed converge, the house doesn’t always win.
Travolta’s Mason, equal parts cocky philosopher and smooth operator, guides us through smoky poker rooms that feel like modern-day forums for economic desperation. His younger brother Shawn (Lukas Haas) reminds us that family ties can be as brittle as playing cards.
This film snaps between high-altitude drone shots and sudden close-ups so jarring they seem intentional—a visual wink at our own fragmented attention spans.

Horror maestro Eli Roth has lined up his next horror movie after Thanksgiving 2 and according to the director, it's a film that studios "were too afraid" to make. However, longtime horror fans might be confused by its title.
Per Variety, Roth is set to write and direct Ice Cream Man, a new horror movie from Media Capital Technologies and The Horror Section. According to the outlet, Ice Cream Man is the "story of an idyllic summer town descending into madness when an ice cream man serves kids sweet delights with horrifying results." Roth launched The Horror Section, a horror media company, in March alongside Media Capital Technologies to produce and distribute movies, TV, and podcasts in the horror landscape, according to The Hollywood Reporter. For Roth, Ice Cream Man is the perfect project for The Horror Section, as studios were apprehensive to make the movie, according to the horror filmmaker.

This article contains spoilers for the Season 2 finale of “Elsbeth”
In the Season 2 finale of “Elsbeth,” the title character (Carrie Preston) wound up in jail, where she not only had to jazz up her prison uniform and solve the murder of one of her fellow prisoners, but possibly miss seeing Kaya (Carra Patterson) before she left for her new task force assignment.
Happily, Elsbeth smokes out the murderer and is freed in time to wish Kaya farewell and good luck in Washington, D.C.
Ahead of the finale, TheWrap spoke to Preston and showrunner Jonathan Tolins about saying goodbye — for now — to one of the show’s original characters and how they pulled off that dazzling cell block dance homage to “Chicago” with guest stars Retta, Gina Gershon, Elizabeth Lail, Mary-Louise Parker and Alyssa Milano.
TheWrap: Kaya is now a full-fledged detective and she’s leaving on a new assignment.

Featuring supporting performances from Stephen Moyer as Alex Modarian, Retta as Margo Clarke, Alyssa Milano as Pupetta Del Ponte, Mary-Louise Parker as Freya Frostad, Gina Gershon as Vanessa Holmes, and André De Shields as Matteo Hart, there might not be enough cells to hold the stacked cast back.

In the penultimate May 1 episode of the hit show’s sophomore season, NYPD police adviser Elsbeth Tascioni (the delightful Carrie Preston) was arrested after her efforts to catch a killer crossed the line, and now she’s in serious legal trouble. The judge, unfortunately for Elsbeth, was a great friend of the late Judge Milton Crawford (Michael Emerson), who had a contentious relationship with Elsbeth, who was trying to prove he had murdered two people decades earlier, and happened to be shot and killed while standing next to the lawyer-turned-sleuth. The Thursday, May 8, guest star-packed season finale finds Elsbeth incarcerated with nine of the murderers she has helped put away. Among the miscreants making return visits: lecherous theater director (and Elsbeth’s first success as an amateur detective) Alex Modarian (Stephen Moyer), society matchmaker Margo Clarke (Retta), plastic surgeon Vanessa Holmes (Gina Gershon), fashion designer Matteo Hart (André De Shields...

"Yes, I'm here, I've been splashed... I'm a New Yorker," the titular Elsbeth (Carrie Preston) might have once said, but, as the promo for the upcoming Season 2 finale proves, she's certainly not forgotten her Chicago roots. Following the penultimate Episode 19, "I've Got a Little List," which featured the talented Billy Magnussen as thrill-seeker and dangerous playboy Rod, one more episode in Elsbeth's critically acclaimed second season remains, and it promises to be a toe-tapping, cameo-filled adventure.
As can be seen in the promo for the episode, available to watch below, Elsbeth is going behind bars herself this week, although to catch the killer of a killer who is already serving time. However, if there's one perfect place to feature a who's who of the show's guest stars it is prison, with Elsbeth's hard work coming back to haunt her as she comes face to face with the likes of Retta,...

1995’s Showgirls, from Paul Verhoeven, is getting a 30th anniversary reissue in UK cinemas. More on the re-release here.
Sometimes, it’s the classics that get a birthday re-release in cinemas. Sometimes, it’s films regarded as, well, not quite such classics. Case in point, Paul Verhoeven’s hugely contentious Showgirls, a film that caused no end of controversy on its original release back in 1995, and fell far short of its expected box office total too.
Reuniting Verhoeven with Basic Instinct writer Joe Eszterhas, the movie stars Elizabeth Berkley, Kyle MacLachlan and Gina Gershon, and much has been written about it over the years. Yet also, Showgirls has, over time, been reassessed. With a year or two of its original release, cult screenings were taking place in cinemas. More recently, while the film still has no shortage of critics, it’s been assessed far more warmly. There’s also a...

2024 wasn't a great year for Lionsgate, but Borderlands stood out as the studio's biggest box office flop. Following a disastrous $9 million opening weekend, the movie ended its month-long run at the box office with a mere $33 million worldwide.
With a production budget of $115 million and a $30 million marketing campaign - which saw fans of the games largely reject everything they were seeing - the studio lost upwards of $100 million.
Lionsgate CEO Jon Feltheimer previously said, "Nearly everything that could go wrong did go wrong: it sat on the shelf for too long during the pandemic, and reshoots and rising interest rates took it outside the safety zone of our usual strict financial models."
Borderlands director Eli Roth reflected on the movie while speaking to The Town (via GameFraggercom) and argued that Covid-19 and Zoom meetings were the main issue. He also pointed to the reshoots he was unable to...

Ryan Murphay's medical drama, Doctor Odyssey, remains in danger of being canceled by ABC as even more series get renewal orders. While the new series may be reaching its end, sources say there is a potential bright side.
Deadline reports that ABC recently renewed 9-1-1, Grey's Anatomy, The Rookie, Will Trent and Shifting Gears -- but Doctor Odyssey is still on the bubble. The soapy cruise ship medical drama is expensive to make thanks to its high production value and star-studded cast, meaning it could go either way in the end. While the series may end up getting canceled, sources say that the upcoming Season 1 finale has "an ending that could serve as a series finale," meaning that fans won't be left with an unresolved cliffhanger.

Get ready for a wild reunion on the season 2 finale of Elsbeth with a murderer’s row of past murderers!
Elsbeth has been a great hit for CBS in 2024-25, as viewers have come to love this unique mystery series. The setup has Carrie Preston reprising her Emmy-winning role from The Good Wife as eccentric attorney Elsbeth Tascioni. Coming to New York as part of a “consent decree” with the police, Elsbeth soon uses her quirky mind to help solve murders.
The show stands out for two elements besides Preston. The first is that it’s a “howdunnit” where most episodes open by showing the audience who the killer is. While some episodes can make it more of a mystery, the majority play on Elsbeth matching wits with the killer.
The second is that the show boasts a fantastic bevy of guest stars as the killers, each providing some fun entertainment.
