"Game of Thrones" came to an end in May of 2019 — enraging fans with its lackluster final season — but people are still asking its stars, years later, if they'd consider returning to Westeros somehow. The latest "Game of Thrones" veteran to answer this question? Sophie Turner — who made her industry debut playing Sansa Stark, a shrewd strategist and eldest daughter of the powerful Northern family House Stark.

While speaking to Variety about her newest project "Joan," interviewer K.J. Yossman brought up the show that made Turner famous, asking, "Could we ever see the return of Sansa Stark?" Turner basically said no, but also admitted she's curious about how the character would be faring today.

"Maybe," Turner said. "I mean, it would have to be the exact same cast and the exact same crew otherwise I wouldn't go back and that would just be season 9, and I don't think we're going to do a season 9, but,...

The I Know What You Did Last Summer reboot cast is coming together in a promising way. We just learned that Golden Globe Award nominee Billy Campbell has joined the cast in an undisclosed role. I wonder who he could be playing in the slasher.

Campbell joins a growing list of actors who have already been announced to be in the cast, such as Madelyn Cline, Sarah Pidgeon, Tyriq Withers, and Jonah Haur-King.

Freddie Prinze Jr. was announced recently to have officially joined the cast, reprising his role of Ray Bronson from the original film and its 1998 sequel. Jennifer Love Hewitt and Brandy Norwood are also in talks to return in their roles as Julie James and Karla Wilson.

Additionally, Bodies Bodies Bodies star Chase Sui Wonders is currently in discussions about joining the cast of the upcoming Sony movie. However, who she will be portraying in the film is unknown.

Sarah Michelle Gellar may not be coming back for the new sequel to the slasher I Know What You Did Last Summer (watch it Here) and the follow-up I Still Know What You Did Last Summer (watch that one Here) that’s coming our way from director Jennifer Kaytin Robinson (Do Revenge) – since her character is dead and all – but The Rocketeer is going to be in the movie! Deadline reports that The Rocketeer star Billy Campbell, whose credits also include Cardinal, Enough, and Bram Stoker’s Dracula, has signed on to join the cast.

Campbell’s co-stars will include Madelyn Cline (Outer Banks), Sarah Pidgeon (Tiny Beautiful Things), Tyriq Withers (Atlanta), and Jonah Hauer-King (The Little Mermaid). Robinson’s Do Revenge star Camila Mendes (Riverdale) was previously attached, but had to drop out due to scheduling issues. It appears that she has been replaced by Chase Sui Wonders (Bodies Bodies Bodies...

Sarah Michelle Gellar is making it clear she won’t return to the I Know What You Did Last Summer sequel film because her character is dead.

With a sequel to the slasher film in the works, many fans speculated if Gellar would reprise her role of beauty queen Helen Shivers.

“I am dead,” Gellar told People about the fate her character faced in the 1997 film.

However, Gellar’s husband, Freddie Prinze Jr., will reprise his role, and the Buffy the Vampire Slayer alum said she will be part of the film in an “unofficial” capacity.

“My best friend [Jennifer Kaytin Robinson] is directing it, so we joke that I have an unofficial job, which is I am continuity,” Gellar told the publication. “So I’m always the one telling her, ‘Well, that would happen, or that wouldn’t happen with those characters,’ so I do have kind of an unofficial job title.

As Outer Banks returns with new episodes (details on that to come), star Madelyn Cline is ready to say goodbye to the Pogues’ adventures. When filming on season 4 wrapped, the 26-year-old actor felt like it marked the end of a chapter for her personally. Ahead, why Cline feels “the timing is right,” and what other roles are on the way. Plus, when Outer Banks Season 4 premieres.

Cline feels ‘the timing is right’ to be done with her ‘college years’ on ‘Outer Banks’

Cline’s ready to graduate from the college that is Outer Banks. Speaking to C Magazine, she compared her time on the Netflix series to higher education, saying that although the experience has “shaped” her, she’s ready for what’s next.

“One thing I love about the boot camp that is ‘Outer Banks’ is that there’s so much of me that informed my character as I grew up,...

Freddie Prinze Jr is set to reprise his role as Ray in the new I Know What You Did Last Summer sequel.

I Know What You Did Last Summer is the next 90s horror franchise to make a flashy return, following in the footsteps of Scream, which was successfully rebooted with a sequel in 2022. We reported in July that the new I Know What You Did Last Summer reboot/sequel had found its cast, but there have been a few changes and an exciting new addition to the line-up.

Firstly, Camila Mendes has exited the project due to scheduling conflicts but has been replaced by Bodies Bodies Bodies actor Chase Sui Wonders.

The more exciting bit of news – at least if you’re a fan of the 1997 original teen slasher classic – is that Freddie Prinze Jr is to reprise the role of Ray, as reported by Variety. The new I...

We have more good news to report about the upcoming I Know What You Did Last Summer reboot, and it's news we've all been patiently waiting for. Freddie Prinze Jr. has just been confirmed to reprise his role as Ray Bronson from I Know What You Did Last Summer and its 1998 sequel in the upcoming reboot. This news comes after learning that Bodies Bodies Bodies star Chase Sui Wonders is in talks to join the cast.

We first learned of Prinze Jr.'s potential involvement in the film back in February 2023 when the reboot was announced to be in early development at Sony. At the time, it was reported that Jennifer Kaytin Robinson would be directing the film from a script written by Leah McKendrick.

Additionally, Prinze Jr. and Jennifer Love Hewitt, who starred in the leading role of Julie James in I Know What You Did Last Summer and its 1998 sequel,...

Freddie Prinze Jr. has joined the cast of “I Know What You Did Last Summer,” a sequel to the 1997 horror film in which he starred opposite Jennifer Love Hewitt, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Ryan Phillippe.

Of the original cast members, Hewitt is in talks to reprise her role as well. Until her contract is finalized, Prinze is set to star alongside Chase Sui Wonders, Madelyn Cline, Sarah Pidgeon, Tyriq Withers and Jonah Haur-King. Camila Mendes was supposed to be in the film, but the “Riverdale” actor recently exited the project due to scheduling conflicts.

It’s unclear where the upcoming sequel will pick up, but the original “I Know What You Did Last Summer” follows four teens from a small seaside town stalked by a hook-wielding killer one year after covering up a car accident that was believed to be fatal. The film became a box office success with $125 million globally.

This confirmation has been a long time coming, but it’s finally here: Deadline reports that Freddie Prinze Jr. has finally, officially signed on to reprise the role of Ray Bronson, the character he previously played in the slasher I Know What You Did Last Summer (watch it Here) and the follow-up I Still Know What You Did Last Summer (watch that one Here), in the new I Know What You Did Last Summer sequel that’s coming our way from director Jennifer Kaytin Robinson (Do Revenge). This project was first announced back in February of 2023, at which time it was said that Prinze and I Know / I Still Know co-star Jennifer Love Hewitt (who played heroine Julie James) were already signed on… but that wasn’t the case. In fact, Prinze hadn’t even been contacted yet at that time, and his deal has only just now closed. Hewitt...

Great Gwildor’s beard! Industry insider Jeff Sneider is sending shockwaves through Grayskull this Wednesday by saying Jared Leto is reportedly getting offered the role of Skeletor in Amazon’s upcoming Masters of the Universe. Bumblebee‘s Travis Knight directs the live-action adaptation of Mattel’s beloved action figure franchise from a script by Chris Butler, with Nicholas Galitzine leading the film as He-Man, Camila Mendes as the virtuous warrior Teela, and Alison Brie as the villainess Evil-Lyn.

The InSneider says Academy Award-winning actor Jared Leto could play the skull-faced, blue-skinned thorn in He-Man’s side. Leto would command his army of iconic henchmen while shaking his fist and cackling, wielding influence and magic like the malevolent sorcerer fans know him to be. In his relentless pursuit of power, Skeletor longs to learn the secrets of Castle Grayskull and conquer the land of Eternia to feed his ego and seemingly limitless power.

As Amazon MGM and Mattel continue to cast the main roles in the upcoming live-action Masters of the Universe reboot, we may know which actor is being courted to play the villainous Skeletor.

According to Jeff Sneider, none other than Jared Leto has been offered the role.

Leto will be very familiar to Cbm fans, having played the Joker in David Ayer's Suicide Squad, and the titular Spider-Man villain in Sony's much-maligned Morbius. He also appeared in Blade Runner 2049, and has a key role in Disney's upcoming Tron: Ares.

If he accepts, Leto will join Nicholas Galitzine as Prince Adam/He-Man, Riverdale alum Camila Mendes as his right-hand woman and (possible) love-interest, Teela, and the recently-cast Alison Brie as Skeletor's second-in-command, Evil-Lyn.

Previous rumors have claimed that Sacha Baron Cohen was in contention to play the iconic baddie.

He-Man's nemesis was played by Frank Langella in the previous live-action movie,...

Part of the Masters of the Universe franchise from the early days, Evil-Lyn was introduced by way of both Mattel’s toy line and the animated series He-Man and the Masters of the Universe in 1983. A sorceress with formidable magical abilities, she’s one of the most trusted and powerful allies of He-Man’s nemesis, Skeletor.

The actress, currently seen on Peacock’s thriller limited series Apples Never Fall, joins Nicholas Galitzine (The Idea of You) and Camila Mendes in the adaptation of the popular toy brand first introduced in the 1980s. Galitzine leads the series as He-Man, while Mendes is on the call sheet for the role of Teela, the captain of the royal guard and possible romantic interest.

As previously reported, Mendes joins Nicholas Galitzine as Prince Adam/He-Man in the live-action adaptation of the classic animated series.

Madelyn Cline, Sarah Pidgeon, Tyriq Withers and Jonah Hauer-King are still on board for supporting roles in Ikwydls, but we have no idea how losing its lead will impact the production.

One of those fresh faces was set to be Camila Mendes (“Riverdale”), but Deadline reports today that Mendes has now exited the project.

Deadline details, “We understand the Riverdale actress could not make the production dates work given her starring role in the upcoming mega Amazon MGM Studios and Mattel Films title Masters of the Universe in which she’ll play Teela.”

The slasher franchise will return to theaters on July 18, 2025.

Madelyn Cline (“Outer Banks”) will star in Sony’s reboot alongside Sarah Pidgeon (“Gotham”), Tyriq Withers (“Atlanta”) and Jonah Hauer-King (The Little Mermaid).

Last we heard, both Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. were also in negotiations to potentially star alongside the fresh new faces.

It seems as though both properties that originated from Kevin Williamson-written films are facing casting disarray. As Scream 7 was in development, it was intended to pick up with Scream VI stars Melissa Barrera and Jenna Ortega reprising their roles. Then, Barrera would come under scrutiny for controversial statements made on social media in response to the Isreal-Hamas conflict, and the production would let her go. Following that, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice star Jenna Ortega would also leave the sequel, citing her schedule becoming conflicted with other projects.

Now, the I Know What You Did Last Summer sequel is also seeing its star exit the project. According to Deadline, Riverdale actress Camila Mendes, who had signed on to star in the urban legend tale, could not make the production date on schedule due to her commitments on the upcoming big-budget franchise production of Amazon MGM Studios and Mattel’s Masters of the Universe reboot.

Camila Mendes has exited the reboot of I Know What You Did Last Summer after casting was announced earlier this summer.

A new report is explaining why the 30-year-old Riverdale star had to depart the film.

We hate to come bearing bad news, but we just learned some important information regarding the highly anticipated I Know What You Did Last Summer reboot that we're sure you'd want to know about. Sadly, Riverdale actress Camila Mendes will no longer star in the slasher. She has reportedly exited the Sony project due to scheduling conflicts.

Back in July 2024, Mendes, along with Madelyn Cline, Sarah Pidgeon, Tyriq Withers, and Jonah Haur-King, were announced to have joined the movie's cast as leads. It was also revealed at the time that Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. were in talks to reprise their roles as Julie and Ray in the reboot.

Jennifer Kaytin Robinson signed on to direct from a screenplay she co-wrote with Sam Lansky. Leah McKendrick wrote the original script. In addition, Sony Pictures will be distributing the film, which is currently set for a July 18, 2025 theatrical release.

As we previously reported, Mendes will headline Masters of the Universe opposite Nicholas Galitzine, who plays He-Man. Her character, Teela, is a warrior and the Captain of Eternia’s Royal Guard. She’s responsible for protecting the royal family, especially Prince Adam aka He-Man.

The house of Armani always has a strong showing at the Venice Film Festival — this is Italy, after all — and that was even more true on Friday night at Palazzo del Cinema. A parade of stars in Armani ensembles assembled on the red carpet ahead of the world premiere of Babygirl, the erotic thriller from Halina Reijn starring Oscar winner Nicole Kidman.

There were faces of Armani Beauty like Lili Reinhart and Camila Mendes of Riverdale fame and Chase Stokes, star of Outer Banks, as well as one of the breakout stars of Alien: Romulus, Isabella Merced. Also making the rounds were Ncuti Gatwa, Madisin Rian, Odeya Rush and Christopher Briney. The showing continued what has already been a high-profile festival at this year’s 81st installment.

The Oscar-winning star of festival selection Disclaimer, Cate Blanchett, has already made several appearances on the red carpet dressed in looks by Armani and Armani Privé.

The Venice Film Festival finally got to meet Halina Reijn’s Babygirl.

The erotic thriller from A24 had its world premiere inside Palazzo del Cinema on Friday evening on the Lido. The capacity crowd seated inside Sala Grande responded with a wild standing ovation for star Nicole Kidman and her cast of collaborators Harris Dickinson, Antonio Banderas and Sophie Wilde. The audience jumped to their feet as the credits rolled with warm, enthusiastic applause and whoops and hollers for the cast, especially Kidman. The standing ovation continued for a solid seven minutes with waves of clapping and cheering greeting Kidman as she rose, waved to the crowd and walked out of the theater. “You nailed it!” yelled one audience member. “Slayed it! Erotic thriller slay!”

The love started early when Kidman and crew arrived to the scene. Fans lining the barricade erupted with cheers as she made her entrance in...

At a Friday afternoon press conference, Nicole Kidman said that the anticipation of presenting the world premiere of her new erotic thriller Babygirl had her feeling “exposed and vulnerable and frightened.” But those emotions certainly were not on display as the Oscar-winning actress hit the red carpet at Palazzo del Cinema in Venice later that night.

Kidman looked every bit like the confident movie star as she faced the crush of photographers, press and adoring fans in an avant-garde couture creation by Daniel Roseberry for Schiaparelli. Fans lining the barricade erupted with cheers as she made her entrance in a striking ensemble that featured a corset bustier in nude organza embroidered with black sequins that cascaded into black fringes. The look was paired with a long black velvet skirt and stilettos. Kidman greeted her director Halina Reijn, dressed in a white cape, and the two gathered for a warm embrace.
