Justin Hartley rejoined the world of network television in the beginning of 2024 with “Tracker,” marking his first major role since wrapping up “This Is Us” in 2022. This new CBS production was a massive success, ranking as the most-watched show during the 2023-2024 television season. Hartley spoke of the demanding routine to portray Colter Shaw and is set for another fall broadcast. Ken Olin, who collaborated with Hartley on both “This Is Us” and “Tracker,” showered him with accolades and drew a comparison to Mark Harmon from “NCIS.”

As a dedicated fan of the “Bad Boys” series, I’ve noticed some significant shifts both on and off the screen since the first movie came out in the ’90s. The duo of Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, who bring Mike Lowrey and Marcus Burnett to life, have experienced growth in their own careers beyond this action-comedy saga. Joe Pantoliano, a fellow franchise veteran, has observed these changes throughout all four films, and his perspective sheds light on the ever-evolving nature of Hollywood.

Spoiler alert: Spoilers follow for LonglegsIt’s hard to remember a recent film with the level of unexpected breakout success as Longlegs. Oz Perkins’ latest is every bit as creepy and unsettling as the early hype promised, thanks to its moody cinematography and a truly terrifying turn from Nicolas Cage as the titular monster. Reviews have rightfully made comparisons to The Silence of the Lambs, given that both films center on a young FBI agent on the trail of a serial killer and on a quest that puts her through an emotional gauntlet and forces her to stare into the heart of darkness.

I, as a passionate fan of Daniel Arsham’s multifaceted artistry, am always intrigued by his diverse collaborations. From teaming up with beloved brands like Pokémon and Porsche, to his ongoing projects with Moncler and Tiffany & Co., Arsham never fails to keep me engaged. His latest venture is particularly captivating: a series of bespoke interior furnishings in collaboration with the esteemed American manufacturing company, Kohler.

Kevin Costner shines on both sides of the camera, delivering exceptional performances for big and small audiences. Although he’s no longer part of “Yellowstone,” Costner remains busy producing Western films. His contributions to this genre have been consistent, although their box office successes differ greatly. For instance, his 2024 film “Horizon: An American Saga” underperformed at the box office, while the iconic “Dances with Wolves” earned seven Academy Awards.
