Apple TV+ has now shared a first look at Before, revealing the first images of legendary comedian and star When Harry Met Sally... and City Slickers, Billy Crystal, in a very different kind of role. Before promises to be an atmospheric, character-driven psychological thriller and stars multi-award-winning actor, comedian and filmmaker Billy Crystal in the lead.

Before stars Crystal as Eli, a child psychiatrist who, after recently losing his wife, Lynn (Light), encounters a troubled young boy, Noah (Jupe), who seems to have a haunting connection to Elis past. As Eli attempts to help Noah, their mysterious bond deepens.

You can check out the newly released images of Before below. And they certainly paint a much darker, more sinister atmosphere than were used to seeing Crystal in.

The ten-episode series is executive produced by Crystal, Oscar Award-winner Eric Roth and creator Sarah Thorp and will premiere globally on Apple TV+ on Friday,...

Both Tom Hanks and Henry Winkler seem like just about the hardest guys in the business to feud with – and so they had it out with themselves! Not even two weeks into filming 1988’s Turner & Hooch, Winkler was fired from directing the film because he and Hanks just couldn’t jive. Don’t worry, Winkler and the French Mastiff got along just fine.

Appearing on the How to Fail podcast (via the New York Post), Henry Winkler remembered, “I did 11 weeks of preparation.I knew this dog. This slobbery mastiff and I became friends. The star did not become my friend.” When prompted if he actually meant Tom Hanks and not the pooch, Beasley, Winkler responded, “I probably do.”

Winkler was able to pinpoint the exact moment that his fate was sealed on Turner & Hooch, selling out Hanks to an eager fan. “We were in Carmel,...

Actress Janet Carroll, who played the mother of Tom Cruise's character in the movie "Risky Business," has died. She was 71.

Carroll's son, George Brown, said the actress died Tuesday in New York after a long illness.

Carroll worked steadily since that breakthrough role with Cruise in 1983. Her film credits include "Family Business," with Sean Connery and Matthew Broderick, and "Memories of Me" with Billy Crystal. On television, she appeared in such shows as "Murphy Brown," "Melrose Place" and "Married With Children."

Carroll served as artistic director of the jazz series at the Simi Valley Cultural Center in Southern California for many years and performed on tour with the Beverly Hills Unlisted Jazz Band.

A memorial service will be held Saturday in New York City.

Henry Winkler joins the cast of USA's "Royal Pains" on Thursday (June 10) in the recurring role of Hank (Mark Feurstein) and Evan's (Paulo Costanzo) scam artist dad, Eddie Lawson.

We're definitely excited to see Henry "the Fonz" Winkler in USA's hit show -- and we're not the only ones. TV son Mark Feurstein recently told Zap2it's Korbi TV, "I love having the Fonz as my dad.... I worshipped the Fonz growing up."

Even after over a quarter century has passed since Winkler played the role of Arthur Fonzarelli, many (like his "Royal Pains" co-star) still know him as "the Fonz." Perhaps that's because most folks don't know what exactly he's been up to since his iconic role on "Happy Days." So ... we thought we'd take a closer look into Winkler's post-"Happy Days" (1974 - 1984), pre-"Royal Pains" (2010) days to answer the burning question: where in the world was Winkler for the past 26 years?...

Comedian Alan King, whose longevity made him a staple of the comedy scene since the 50s, died Sunday in New York of lung cancer; he was 76. The host of the legendary New York Friars Club's celebrity roasts, King first came to prominence in the 50s, when he took his act from nightclubs to television, appearing first on The Ed Sullivan Show, where his rantings about suburbia struck a chord with growing TV audiences. King then became the opening act for numerous musical legends, and segued into innumerable appearances in TV and film, mainly in supporting roles. An accomplished character actor, King appeared most notably in Billy Crystal's Memories of Me and Just Tell Me What You Want, as well as Casino, The Bonfire of the Vanities, Enemies: A Love Story, The Anderson Tapes and Bye Bye Braverman, among other films. In addition to acting and comedy, King also wrote three books and produced several plays and movies. He is survived by his wife, Jeannette, and three children. --Prepared by IMDb staff...
