Key PointsGypsy Rose Blanchard is sharing excerpts of her final text exchanges with late ex Ken Urker. One conversation sees the former couple discuss their custody agreement for daughter Aurora, while another indicates the final time they saw each other in person. "I didn't know that would be the last time I would ever see him in person," Blanchard told PageSix. Gypsy Rose Blanchard is shutting down rumors of a custody battle between her and late ex, Ken Urker. In private messages exchanged one month before Urker's Oct. 1 death, the former couple briefly discussed their decision to handle custody arrangements for daughter Aurora without involving lawyers. Blanchard shared the messages, from a conversation dated Sept 2, with Page Six. "I will be home Friday evening," Urker wrote in the first message. Blanchard replied, "Ok I'll leave Aurora with you and pick her up on Sunday evening. "She then told Urker, "I spoke to an attorney about getting that joint custody agreement and he said we would both have to come in and sign it and he can file it and it would be done.

After seeing previous shows (Out of Order, 2019 and Signal to Noise, 2024) from Sheffield experimental theatre group Forced Entertainment, I was intrigued to see where Tim Etchells and co would go next. Three artists perform in Cold Sweat: Richard Lowden, Terry O’Connor, and Claire Marshall. The show, set on a stage strewn with foam cups, strange props, and tables, heavily draws on lip-syncing and AI voices.

Comedian Shane Gillis let slip a NSFW word during a sketch on Saturday’s episode of “Saturday Night Live.”During a “Green Eggs And Ham” sketch, Gillis, who played the son to Mikey Day’s character, was defending his dad from Andrew Dismukes’ Sam-I-Am, who was pressuring Day’s character to eat his green eggs and ham. “Bro, it’s a non-starter,” Gillis said. “He told me, he said he doesn’t fucking — geez, like them.”Gillis looked visibly shaken up. When the crowd laughed and applauded, he put his hand up to acknowledge the audience. “You’re a loser, and you said a bad word!” Day’s character told Gillis toward the end of the sketch. “Sorry about earlier,” Gillis said. Censors didn’t catch the slip-up, but in videos posted online, the word is muted. At the end of the night, as Gillis was saying goodbye from the main stage and thanking the cast, he again apologized. In 2009, comedian Jenny Slate was fired at the end of her debut season of “Saturday Night Live” after she said “fucking” live on air. However, in 2019, Slate told InStyle that wasn’t the reason she got fired. “By the way, everyone always thinks I got fired for saying fuck,” she said. “I didn’t. That’s not why I got fired.

"Other Mommy," a horror movie starring Jessica Chastain as a double-jointed doppelgänger from hell, scared up $27.5 million in its box office debut. Those ticket sales were enough to lead in North America over this weekend's other new release, "The Social Reckoning," which crumbled in fifth place with $5.5 million. "Other Mommy" landed above expectations despite being one of the worst-reviewed movies of the year. Universal and Blumhouse's campy thriller, about a sinister paranormal entity who takes on the appearance of a young girl's mother, was saddled with a 19% on Rotten Tomatoes and a tragic "D+" grade on CinemaScore exit polls. (Even last weekend's bomb "Digger" managed to earn a "C+" grade on exit polls.) Those marks don't bode well for box office longevity, though "Other Mommy" is well-positioned financially against a modest $18 million budget. The movie collected $17.69 million at the international box office, bringing its global tally to $45.19 million. More from Variety"Horror movies are generally immune to a negative reception, but this is extreme," says analyst David A. Gross, who publishes the box office newsletter FranchiseRe. "Business is going to drop sharply.

"I just watch television all the time, from the time I was a little kid and now, and so my retention of sitcoms and game shows, especially from back in that era, are embedded in my head.

Key PointsMichael Douglas wrote in new memoir One Helluva Ride that Sean Young had a "terrible relationship" with most of the people on the set of 1987's Wall Street. He wrote that Sheen taped a profane sign on Young's back one day, and he removed it. Young told a similar story in March 2021Michael Douglas' Gordon Gekko might have been the antagonist in Wall Street, but the actor recalls that his costar Charlie Sheen held that title on set, at least when it came to Sean Young. "Sean Young, who played my wife, had a terrible relationship with Charlie and pretty much everyone else besides me," the Fatal Attraction star wrote in his new book, One Helluva Ride. "She caused a lot of problems on set, and many on the crew had an issue with her. It got so bad that at one point Charlie taped a sign on her back that read 'Biggest c--- in the world.'"Douglas said Young, who also starred in 1982's Blade Runner and 1984's Dune before the 1987 hit, didn't notice the sign for a while. "When I saw it, I pulled it off," he wrote. "'What was that?' she asked. 'Forget it.' It would have ended there, except the guy who furnished all the art for the film had seen it and told her.

He's booked & busyPublished Oct 11, 2026•1:00pmGregory Pace/ShutterstockIf you started watching Netflix’s East of Eden and immediately thought, “Wait, I know that guy,” you’re definitely not alone. Christopher Abbott has been working steadily for more than a decade, popping up in everything from HBO dramas to Oscar-winning movies, and his latest role is one of his biggest yet.

Created by Zoe Kazan, the series follows the Trask family across generations, with Florence Pugh playing Cathy Ames and Mike Faist as Adam’s brother, Charles. Abbott’s Adam is a morose Army veteran who falls for Cathy and heads west with her to California, where his life takes some major turns. COURTESY OF NETFLIXBut if Abbott’s face is giving you major déjà vu, there’s a very good chance you remember him from HBO’s Girls. Abbott played Charlie Dattolo, Marnie Michaels’ on-again, off-again boyfriend, appearing in 13 episodes between 2012 and 2016. Charlie starts out as the sweet, devoted boyfriend before the relationship gets considerably more complicated.

LYON, France — Todd Haynes, Zhang Ziyi, Daniel Brühl, Tsui Hark and Andrey Zvyagintsev attended the opening gala of France's Lumière Festival Saturday night where Haynes teased his anticipated 'De Noche,' starring Pedro Pascal. It also saw Lumière Fest chief Thierry Frémaux, also head of the Cannes Festival, take a well-received swing at U. S. President Donald Trump. "Donald Trump has protested that he wasn't given the Nobel Peace Prize. The Lumière Award is the only prize we think he won't ask for," Frémaux told the crowd of the fest's top honor. "In any case, we won't give it to him," Frémaux added, referring to the fest's top honor at Lyon's cavernous Halle Tony Garnier, a 5,000-seat concert hall, at a gala where he acted as ever as host. More from VarietyJoel and Ethan Coen will accept this year's Lumière Award later in the festival. The opening night, however, belonged very much to Haynes, in Lyon for a masterclass and a retrospective featuring "Poison," "Safe," "Far from Heaven" and "I'm Not There.
