Hunter Schafer is grappling with grief for ‘Euphoria’ costar Angus Cloud: ‘It doesn’t make sense’

  Hunter Schafer is still processing the loss of her friend and “Euphoria” costar Angus Cloud. “I’ve never had a friend that I was that close to and that was my age pass before,” Schafer, 25, said in an interview with GQ published on Tuesday. “It’s really surreal. It doesn’t make sense. And yeah, it’s new. It’s a new kind of grieving.” CNN previously reported that Cloud died in July of an accidental overdose. He was 25. Schafer acknowledged that “people really fell in love with Angus,” and that she knew while working alongside him how special of a person he was. “He was really one of the heartbeats of ‘Euphoria.’ It’s always the people that are just kind of a little too good for the world and a little too pure,” Schafer said in the interview. “He was a f—ing angel. He was sunshine.” Cloud was a rising actor best known for his breakout role as the softhearted drug dealer Fezco in the HBO drama “Euphoria,” a character that became a beloved fixture among viewers over the course the show’s

Taylor Swift is getting a channel dedicated to her on SiriusXM

  Taylor Swift is getting a channel dedicated entirely to her on SiriusXM, and the channel number? Channel 13 (Taylor’s Version), obviously. The channel will run from April 7 through May 6, the company said in a statement Tuesday. It will coincide with the April release of Swift’s new album, “The Tortured Poets Department.” And because she loves an Easter egg, the 13th day of the channel is the actual April 19th release date of “Poets,” which is Swift’s eleventh studio album. According to SiriusXM’s statement: “Channel 13 (Taylor’s Version) will air 24/7 across North America and will be a destination for fans to hear Swift’s music from her chart-topping 17-year career, including Eras Tour favorites, all (Taylor’s Versions), From the Vault tracks, live tracks, bonus tracks and much more.” Scott Greenstein, SiriusXM’s president and chief content officer, called Swift a “legend” and said her work “will be on full display” during the channel run. “The versatility of Taylor’s music and the

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire Box Office (Worldwide): Exceeds All Expectations & Earns A Staggering $194 Million Globally!

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire’s impressive debut weekend has trumped all projections, earning more than expected. The fifth film in the MonsterVerse has gone for a monstrous start at the box office. The film reunites the two Titans, King Kong, and Godzilla, but this time, it is not a versus situation; instead, they are teamed up to fight a common threat. Keep scrolling for more. It brought back the queen of the MonsterVerse, Mothra, as well. The film received fewer positive reviews from the critics, contrary to the audience’s excitement towards the flick. The audience decides a film’s box office numbers; in this case, it is in the movie’s favor. The film features Rebecca Hall as the lead, with Brian Tyree Henry and Dan Stevens alongside her. Adam Wingard once again helmed the director’s chair. Initially, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire was expected to earn $50 million at the domestic box office, but the film has exceeded that expectation and earned a staggering $80 million in North

Another ‘Dune’ movie is ‘in the works,’ but Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya don’t know how it all ends

  “Dune: Part Two” spiced up the box office with a $81.5 million opening weekend, becoming the biggest film, so far, of 2024. With success, often comes sequels — and in the case of “Dune,” director Denis Villeneuve has made it no secret that he hopes to complete his storytelling with a trilogy. On the press tour for “Part Two,” Villeneuve said that his vision is to adapt a third film from Frank Hebert’s second novel, “Dune Messiah.” (“Dune,” released in 2021, and “Dune: Part Two” were both based off of Hebert’s original book with Villeneuve making the creative decision to split the novel into two parts.) Speaking to CNN, Villeneuve said that his third film is already in the works, although it has not been officially greenlit. “I signed for two movies at the beginning,” Villeneuve said. “I felt when finally the movie finished with ‘Part Two,’ I felt like, ‘Okay, I did it.’ But I would love [and] I think it would make sense to me to totally finish Paul Atreides’ arc by doing ‘Dune Messia

Michael Keaton and Winona Ryder face off once again in ‘Beetlejuice Beetlejuice’ trailer

Get ready everyone because the ghost with the most is back in town. Warner Bros. Pictures released the first teaser trailer for the highly anticipated sequel “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” on Thursday, a followup to the 1988 Tim Burton classic starring Michael Keaton and Winona Ryder. (Like CNN, Warner Bros. Pictures is owned by Warner Bros. Discovery.) Even in the brief minute-plus clip, much of the DNA that made the first movie so captivating can be seen and felt, from Harry Belafonte’s calypso classic “Day-O (The Banana Boat Song)” being heavily featured – along with the unmistakable and unsettling deep synth chords of Danny Elfman’s soundtrack – to the locales, which include the red covered bridge where Barbara and Adam Maitland (Geena Davis and Alec Baldwin) met their end and the enchanted model town stowed away in the attic of their house. Ryder is seen as Lydia – complete with her wayward black bangs – along with fellow returning cast member Catherine O’Hara, reprising her fan-favor

K-pop star Karina and actor Lee Jae-wook split shortly after going public

A K-pop star who had to issue a grovelling apology to fans for having a boyfriend is single again. Karina and actor Lee Jae-wook rocked the K-pop world when they went public with their relationship in February, with some angry fans accusing her of "betrayal". Lee's agency C-JeS Studio confirmed the break up, saying he wanted to "focus on his filming projects". They added that the duo would "continue to support each other as colleagues". The backlash - which also saw Karina criticised for being an irresponsible frontwoman of her four-woman group, aespa - prompted her to issue an apology on Instagram, where she vowed "to heal the wounds" she had inflicted. "I apologise for surprising you greatly," wrote the singer, whose real name is Yu Ji-min. She pledged to show fans a "more mature and hardworking side" in future. Some fans drove a "protest truck" to her management agency when the news broke. "Is the love gi
