Julia Stiles Has a 'Save the Last Dance' Reunion on 'Dancing With the Stars'There are way more than 10 things Julia Stiles loves about Heath Ledger.

Stop me if you've heard this one before: A beloved TV show or movie is being revived so those involved can get another moment in the sun (and another influx of cash) while its longtime fans rush to get a hit of sweet, sweet nostalgia. It's happening now with Lena Dunham's deeply millennial sitcom Girls, which is getting a five-episode limited-run revival involving all four of the girls: Dunham, Allison Williams, Zosia Mamet and Jemima Kirke, plus honorary girl, Andrew Rannells. Do I dare hope: Could this one actually be good? Reboots are dangerous in this day and age: there are so many of them and they often threaten to taint the memory of a once-cherished work. Take Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life, which fans felt botched a favorite character, or And Just Like That, which was a straight-up hate-watch. Flip on any streaming service right now and you'll see a new one: There's the revived Scrubs on Hulu, the spun-off The Paper on Peacock, the rebooted A Different World on Netflix, and so on. But I, and many of my fellow fans online, feel cautiously optimistic about the new Girls. Here's my theory as to why.

Key PointsDaisy Edgar-Jones reveals how Fiona Shaw created Mrs. Jennings for the 2026 Sense and Sensibility adaptation. The Normal People star tells Entertainment Weekly that Shaw made the "perfect" Mrs. Jennings. "Fiona is one of my favorite performers of all time," the actress says. Daisy Edgar-Jones will never forget the first time she saw Fiona Shaw step into the shoes of iconic Sense and Sensibility character Mrs. Jennings. Jane Austen's novel, published more than 200 years ago, follows sisters Elinor (Edgar-Jones) and Marianne Dashwood (Esmé Creed-Miles), whose lives change drastically after their father's death. Enter Mrs. Jennings, the gossipy widow who's lonely after marrying off her own two daughters. To pass the time, she tries to help the Dashwood girls find rich husbands. While Mrs. Jennings looks at it as matchmaking, others might call it meddling. Shaw, who is "a legend" in Edgar-Jones' eyes, made Mrs. Jennings "larger-than-life" for the 2026 adaptation, the Normal People star tells Entertainment Weekly. "Fiona is one of my favorite performers of all time," she adds — and working with her did not disappoint.

The show must go on. DC Studios co-CEO and co-chairman Peter Safran addressed the production stoppage on The Batman: Part II in a new interview with IGN. Filming of The Batman: Part II had been underway in the UK until it was halted earlier this month so that director Matt Reeves could see to a "family matter. ""Production on The Batman Part II has been temporarily paused while Matt Reeves focuses on a family matter,” Warner Bros. stated at the time. “Matt has the full support of DC Studios and we look forward to continuing the journey soon.”Here’s my exact exchange with Safran from our chat this past Monday. IGN: I want to be very delicate about how I ask this. Is there any scenario where Batman: Part II doesn't start filming again? Peter Safran: No. Whether that means filming will resume at some point under Reeves’ direction or if a replacement will take over the directing reins remains to be seen.
