After bizarre 'Together' ending, Alison Brie and Dave Franco are 'not having kids'
Spoiler alert! We're discussing major details about the ending of the new movie 'Together' (in theaters now). Stop reading if you haven't seen it yet and don't want to know. Dave Franco and Alison Brie were game to do whatever in 'Together,' which finds them sawing their arms apart, eating each other's hair, and banging their heads into shower walls and frosted glass doors. But there was one scene that gave both actors pause in the whacked-out horror movie. After drinking from a pool of otherworldly cave water, Tim (Franco) and Millie (Brie) discover that their bodies are violently drawn together. The dissatisfied couple initially tries to resist the urge to fuse their flesh, but in the end, they choose to let their bodies combine in a disrobed display of bone-crunching, skin-melding terror. 'All day, Dave and I were standing genitals to genitals naked in a scene that was going to end up being real effects-heavy,' Brie recalls. 'You're relying on things that you can't see in the moment, and we did look at each other like, 'I hope this works out OK.' ' 'We knew in the moment this was very strange,' Franco adds. 'It would be a pretty good Christmas card if we weren't both fully nude.' 'Together': Married actors Alison Brie, Dave Franco made a horror movie about monogamy Before their bodies start to contort and merge, Tim and Millie rip off their clothes in the living room, hugging as they dance to the Spice Girls' '2 Become 1.' Licensing the 1996 pop hit for the film cost nearly the entire music budget, but 'it felt impossible to think of something that tops '2 Become 1,' ' Brie says. 'That song was made so that this scene could be made.' The freaky fusion sequence was always how writer/director Michael Shanks pictured ending the movie. 'There's something romantic and sad about it, but also funny and nasty,' Shanks says. 'As we were making it, I was like, 'Let's lean in to showing the ribs cracking and the eyes going nuts.' I wanted to end on a crazy image. People walk out of the theater being like, 'What?!' ' Join our Watch Party!

Tim also ventures into a nearby cave and finds a missing hiker couple, whose figures have melded into a gory monstrosity. But the movie leaves much of its mysteries unanswered. 'I'm not super-interested in the mythology,' Shanks says. 'We've all seen horror movies where it screeches to a halt so a character can explain, 'OK, this is how it works' or 'This is what it is.' ' Rather, the film 'gives you enough breadcrumbs to figure it out and fill in the blanks.' In the final shot of "Together," Millie's parents stop by the house for lunch. When the front door opens, they're greeted by an androgynous person with longish hair, thick eyebrows and a deep voice. Although many viewers – this reporter included – might assume that's an entirely different actor, it's actually just Brie with a mix of prosthetics and visual effects altering her face. 'We fondly call them Tillie,' Brie says of their characters' uncanny amalgamation. 'Basically, it's me in Dave's clothes with shoulder pads, a wig and Dave's eyebrows. I will say, in one of the test screenings that we did for the movie, I snuck in the back of the theater to hear everybody's responses to this final person. One woman raises her hand and goes, 'I mean, it just looks like Alison Brie.' I turned to our producer and said, 'That's the meanest thing that's ever been said about me!' ' 'But if that's what we look like when we're fused together,' Franco jokes, 'maybe that's further reinforcement that we should not have children.' 'Yeah,' Brie deadpans. 'This is the reason we're not having kids!'

Who Answers the Door in Together's Ending? Explained
Together was finally released in theatres across the United States on July 30, 2025, and it is already one of the most thought-provoking horror body horrors of the year, making a statement that echoes notes of previous body horrors like The Substance and Swallow. With a solid premise and an impactful ending, Together practically has it all. So, who was the one who opened the door at the ending of the film? Here is the explanation. Together ending and who answers the door explained The final sequence of Together gives a glimpse at the ultimate fused form of Tim and Millie. The creature that they ultimately become seems satisfied with the form in the final sequence. They had fought off the transformation for a long time, to the extent that Tim even planned to kill himself to save Millie from the fate. But ultimately, they do end up as the same person after Tim makes the sacrifice of embracing the fusion to save Millie, who was dying from her wounds. Following this, they end up as one androgynous person who is a fusion of Tim and Millie. This person answers the door in the final scene, indicating that they had embraced this new identity. So, the film ends on a very unique note, with Tim and Millie's love triumphing as well as failing, giving viewers a lot to think about. How do Millie and Tim get fused together? Tim and Millie's transformation begins when they encounter a mysterious substance in a cave. The film also depicted a cult that was behind administering the substance that would fuse people together. They believed that humans were incomplete and required to fuse to achieve their true form. But Tim and Millie accidentally encounter the substance, without coercion from the cult. Many things about this cult were intentionally left out, creating a sense of mystery. Together is now playing in theatres across the United States. Stay tuned for more updates.

Who Is Jenna Ortega Dating?
Jenna Ortega is truly the president of the Mind Your Own Business Club™️. Like, in a world of people who post absolutely everything, she chooses to stay mum in public about her personal life. That said, the Wednesday star *did* share a rare update on her relationship status during an August 2024 interview with Vanity Fair when she said, 'I don't plan on speaking about my love life publicly, because that's mine.' Honestly, truer words! Given all of this, it's no surprise that Jenna has never been in a relationship that the public knows about. Even so, relationship rumors follow her pretty regularly. Here's a list of Jenna Ortega relationship rumors throughout the years—literally all of which have turned out to be false—and how they were ultimately corrected. Jenna and Jacob sparked untrue dating rumors after the actor appeared in the musician's music video for his song, 'Chapstick.' In the vid, the two stars pretended to be on a date while gallivanting around New York City playing carnival games, eating ice cream, roasting marshmallows, and walking across the Brooklyn Bridge together. In other words, a picture-perfect day that would have made middle school me weep. Let's roll back the tapes, shall we? Despite the fact that Jenna and Jacob appeared to have *tons* of on-screen chemistry, they never actually became more than just friends IRL. As the musician put it during a convo with J-14 at the time,'We're really good friends.' He went on to add, 'It was really fun to film the video. She's really nice, so we had good chemistry on camera and off.' But that was it, apparently! Fans first began speculating about the Disney channel stars after they showed up to the Venom movie premiere together in October 2018. The pair also made a handful public appearances together afterwards. Case in point? Just Jared's 7th Annual Halloween Party, where they wore the cutest couples costume. Enter: my renewed obsession with Ari and Pete. They were also spotted at a fashion show, during which Asher wasted no time posting a cute vid with the caption "this one ❤️" on his Insta Stories, per J-14. Despite tons of fan support and speculation, neither Jenna nor Asher ever confirmed (or denied) the relationship rumors. However! Some fans believe Asher is the person Jenna very briefly alluded to when she referenced an ex on Dax Shepherd's Armchair Expert podcast in March 2023. 'I was in a relationship for a couple of years but I stopped when things got too hectic,' Jenna said at the time. 'Kay, so this one ab-so-lute-ly never happened, but it tricked the internet for a hot sec. Back in early 2023, a fully fake rumor spread about Jenna and Kendall Jenner's on-and-off-again boyfriend Devin Booker going on a dinner date together, with supposed 'photographic evidence' of them leaving a restaurant. But fans quickly deduced that the image was entirely photoshopped, putting an end to the fakery. And that's that! As far as fans know, Jenna is happily single right if that changes, the public will probably be the last to know.
