'Bridgerton's' Nicola Coughlan to star in 'I Am' Season 4
July 28 (UPI) -- Bridgerton actress Nicola Coughlan is starring in Season 4 of the anthology series I Am.
Each episode of the Channel 4 drama follows a different woman's story. In 2023, Kate Winslet starred in Season 3, I Am Ruth.
Coughlan's story is titled I Am Helen.
The series has previously starred Vicky McClure, Samantha Morton, Gemma Chan, Suranne Jones, Letitia Wright and Lesley Manville.
Coughlan is developing her character's story with series creator, writer and director Dominc Savage -- a process that she described as "an absolute honor" in a statement.
"To follow in the footsteps of the brilliant women who've collaborated with him on this series feels truly surreal, and I feel incredibly fortunate to be embarking on this journey," she continued.
Gangs of London actor Joe Cole will also star.
A release date has not yet been announced.

Mysterious Ring camera footage sparks alien speculation
July 29 (UPI) -- A California woman's doorbell camera captured a video of a mysterious figure that has some residents speculating about alien activity. Jessica Ortiz shared footage to social media showing what her Ring camera picked up outside her Compton home after dark. The video appears to show an unusually-shaped figure walking next to the house. "Someone ANYONE please explain to me what my Ring just caught. I'm not tripping right?" Ortiz wrote. She said her son was equally perplexed by the footage. "He sat up on his bed and he played it like three times," Ortiz told NBC Los Angeles. "When he was done on the third one, he was like, 'Mom, it's an alien. Call the police.' I was like, I'm not calling the police on an alien. I'd sound crazy." Some commenters said the figure resembles an alien or another mysterious creature, while others speculated it could have been a person wearing a hat or a black-clad figure carrying a light-colored bag that showed up on camera as the silhouette of an extra-terrestrial. The video reached more than 1 million views on Instagram, but Ortiz has yet to receive a definitive answer. She said her best guess is still alien activity. "I think god is too creative for us to be the only ones with life," she said.

Watch: 'Eternity' trailer finds Elizabeth Olsen in afterlife love triangle
July 29 (UPI) -- Elizabeth Olsen finds herself in an afterlife love triangle with her two dead husbands in the new film Eternity. In a trailer released Tuesday, viewers see Miles Teller's character wake up on a train only to realize, upon reaching the station, that he has died. He quickly reunites with Olsen's character, Joan, who has also passed away. The pair seem relieved to have found one another before Joan's first love (Callum Turner) arrives on the scene. "In an afterlife where souls have one week to decide where to spend eternity, Joan is faced with the impossible choice between the man she spent her life with and her first love, who died young and has waited decades for her to arrive," an official synopsis reads. The film will arrive in theaters later this year, but a specific release date has not yet been announced. John Early, Olga Merediz and Da'Vine Joy Randolph also star. David Freyne directs from a script he wrote with Pat Cunnane.
