Claudia breaks the news from Variety: Amanda Batula will not return for Summer House Season 11. [1] — Claudia Oshry "Amanda Batula is out of Summer House after 10 seasons, with several new cast members also reportedly not returning. The hosts worry the sho…" 20:31 Several of the new cast additions, including KJ and Dara, are also apparently not coming back, while Sierra and Lindsay remain in some capacity and Kyle stays on. Jackie draws an immediate parallel to Vanderpump Rules post-Scandoval — a show that got a massive national platform, then seemingly removed the very elements driving its popularity. The hosts lament the absence of Amanda and Wes, who they'd actually like to watch deal with the fallout, and Jackie flags that the new cast introduced to her sounded 'boring as hell.' There's also sympathy for Jesse, whose friendship with Wes has been damaged more severely than the public realizes, with Claudia noting that without the shared filming framework, that friendship is effectively over.
Amanda Batula will not return for Summer House Season 11 following the #Scamanda controversy, per Variety.
Sierra took the Love Island After Sun hosting gig in Fiji and has been away for two months during what was peak post-Summer House momentum. Death threats, infighting with co-host Tefi, and being absent from campaigns leads Jackie to wonder if it was the wrong call.
The entire plot of the original Terminator film depends on the phone book. The Terminator looks up 'Sarah Connor,' finds multiple listings, and starts killing them one by one. No phone book, no movie.
Rico has already appeared in Den of Thieves, Den of Thieves 2, and Roadhouse alongside Jake Gyllenhaal and Dave Bautista. Jason Statham is developing a specific role for him. Working alongside elite actors taught Rico something about himself: the emotional suppression that makes him a great fighter is exactly the material that makes great acting — if he learns to stop pushing it away.
Trump joked that Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. personally ran over, butchered, and delivered the evening's beef tenderloin to the dinner — then topped it with a punchline about RFK wanting to serve raccoon roadkill as an appetizer. The crowd's laughter at jokes targeting his own administration signaled a rare night of good-natured self-deprecation from Trump.
Jimmy Tatro is playing the nemesis-son to Will Ferrell's washed-up golfer in The Hawk, his fifth project with Ferrell and Ferrell's first lead TV series. The real highlight: Molly Shannon, playing his on-screen mother, drove off set on the last day with Chief Keef blasting from her subwoofers.
Alan Ritchson walked into a Thor audition with his sides still in his hand, half-assed it on a spotlight-lit stage before two silhouettes in a dark theater, and bombed so completely that the casting director broke protocol to call his team. The feedback? He had no craft. That one sentence sent him to acting school — and changed the trajectory of everything.
Alan Ritchson walked out of his Titans audition so sure he'd booked the lead that he called his wife and told her he was going to buy a Tesla. She said he hadn't booked it. He went and bought the car anyway. His instincts were right — he was offered the role — just not the one he wanted.
Reacher drew 56 million global viewers in a single week of Season 2. Alan Ritchson points out what makes it unusual: unlike ensemble shows, almost all of that visibility lands on one person. It's an anthology with a rotating cast built around a single titular character — and the scale of it is something even he calls unprecedented.
Motor City has no spoken dialogue. Every major leading man in Hollywood — Jake Gyllenhaal, Hugh Jackman, Gerard Butler, Adrian Brody — was attached at some point. It was greenlit nine times. The concept was simple: Greg Silverman wanted a film everyone in the world could watch with the exact same experience, regardless of language. Alan Ritchson read the script and called it a masterpiece.
Working with Arnold Schwarzenegger showed Alan Ritchson what 100% recognition looks like. People feel Schwarzenegger before they see him — like a meteor approaching. Alan's wife wants a strict no-photos policy around family. Arnold stops for everyone. The contrast was a master class in how gratitude should manifest when fame is inescapable.
