Williams is typically inactive on X. Before the hacking incident, his last post was retweeting a June 3 article from Variety announcing that his upcoming Prime Video Italian original series 'Hotel Costieral' will be teased at the Taormina Film Festival, which will run June 10 to 17.

Before that, he reshared a Hollywood Reporter video of him attending the Critics Choice Awards on Feb. 7.
The 'Your Place or Mine' actor is much more active on Instagram, where he has over 7.4 million followers.

Sadly, Williams is no stranger to being a victim of the internet.
Back in May 2022, naked footage of Williams during his Broadway show 'Take Me Out' leaked online.
The full-frontal footage was captured by a spectator during a shower scene and surfaced on social media the same day that Williams received a Tony nomination for his performance in the play, which tells the story of a gay professional baseball player dealing with coming out to his teammates and in the press.

Broadway's Second Stage Theater said it was 'appalled' by the leak in a statement at the time.

'Taking naked pictures of anyone without their consent is highly objectionable and can have severe legal consequences,' the theater said. 'Posting it on the internet is a gross and unacceptable violation of trust between the actor and audience forged in the theater community.'

Before the incident, Williams admitted to Page Six that he 'was terrified' to strip down for the performances.
'But then I noted that that was what I asked God for. I asked to be terrified. I asked to do something that was scary and challenging and made me earn it and made me feel alive and not comfortable,' he said.

Clip of Sydney Sweeney's expert shooting range run goes viral after Republican registration revealed, American Eagle ad fiasco
A video of 'Americana' star Sydney Sweeney perfecting her shooting skills at a gun range resurfaced online and quickly went viral after she was revealed to be a registered Republican amid outrage over her American Eagle ad. Sweeney, 27, has been in the crosshairs of online social justice warriors who said her ill-fated July advertisement had eugenics undertones, emphasizing her 'good jeans' — all while largely focusing on her bust. Soon after, it was revealed that the Emmy-nominated actress has been registered with the Republican Party of Florida in Monroe County since June 2024, according to public voter records viewed by The Post. Advertisement Now, a 2019 clip of the actress masterfully blasting a gun at a shooting range for an unspecified movie role is making its rounds online. 5 A 2019 video of Sydney Sweeney practicing for an unspecified Hollywood role at a gun range went viral.

Advertisement 5 Sweeney's advertisement with American Eagle has been slammed by lefty keyboard warriors. American Eagle The bombshell, who shot to fame after starring in HBO's 'Euphoria,' hasn't publicly responded to the advertisement's controversy, but made her first appearance at a screening of her upcoming film 'Americana' on Monday. At the viewing, Sweeney was heckled by a disgruntled fan who shouted that she should 'Stop the ad, that is being racist!' TMZ reported. 5 Sweeney made her first public appearance since the ad was released at a viewing for her upcoming movie 'Americana.' WireImage Advertisement Sweeney didn't respond and disappeared into her vehicle. American Eagle defended its advertisement, but removed the video from its social media accounts. ''Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans' is and always was about the jeans. Her Jeans. Her Story. We'll continue to celebrate how everyone wears their AE jeans with confidence, their way,' the statement said. Sweeney has received a flood of support from online influencers and politicians alike, including the president himself. Advertisement 5 The actress has received an outpouring of support from other corners of the internet. Instagram / sydney_sweeney 'If Sydney Sweeney is a registered Republican, I think her ad is fantastic,' President Trump lauded immediately after being told about Sweeney's political affiliation. Trump later elaborated on TruthSocial while adding a jab at multi-Grammy award winner Taylor Swift, who he has ceaselessly attacked since she endorsed Kamala Harris for the 2024 Presidential Election. 'Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the 'HOTTEST' ad out there. It's for American Eagle, and the jeans are 'flying off the shelves.' Go get 'em Sydney!' Trump wrote. 5 Sweeney has not addressed the controversies surrounding the advertisements or her political affiliation. Getty Images 'Or just look at Woke singer Taylor Swift. Ever since I alerted the world as to what she was by saying on TRUTH that I can't stand her (HATE!). She was booed out of the Super Bowl and became, NO LONGER HOT. The tide has seriously turned — Being WOKE is for losers, being Republican is what you want to be. Thank you for your attention to this matter!' Swift made an appearance at the 2025 Super Bowl to cheer on her longtime boyfriend and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce before the team was trounced by the Philadelphia Eagles. She was reportedly booed by Eagles fans when shown on the jumbotron. The Post reached out to Taran Tactical Innovations, the gun store that provided the firearms used in Sweeney's gun range practice, for comment, but didn't immediately hear back.

Sharon Stone on why she didn't cut ‘Basic Instinct' crotch shot despite having ‘legal right' to
Sharon Stone is tackling her infamous leg-crossing scene and explaining why she didn't pull it from 'Basic Instinct.' The Oscar-nominated actress, 67, discussed the controversial moment from the 1992 erotic thriller in a candid interview with Business Insider published on Monday. In the film, Stone played Catherine Tramell, the seductive crime author-turned-serial-killer, who was investigated by Michael Douglas' character, Det. Nick Curran. 13 Sharon Stone's memorable scene from 'Basic Instinct.' ©TriStar Pictures/Courtesy Everett Collection 13 The 1992 movie featured Sharon Stone and Michael Douglas. Corbis via Getty Images The most famous scene included Stone crossing her legs to reveal she wasn't wearing underwear while being questioned. That shot caused the star to face scrutiny over the years, with Stone even claiming she lost custody of her son over the scene. Now, she's revealing why she didn't make director Paul Verhoeven remove it from the movie, despite alleging she legally could have forced his hand. 13 Sharon Stone played Catherine Tramell, a seductive crime author-turned-serial-killer. ©TriStar Pictures/Courtesy Everett Collection 13 Michael Douglas starred as Det. Nick Curran, who was investigating her for murder. Corbis via Getty Images 13 Sharon Stone revealed why she didn't force the director to remove the controversial scene. sharonstone/Instagram 'I very much believe that none of us knew at the time what we were getting in regard to that shot, and when Paul got it, he didn't want to lose it, and he was scared to show me. And I get that,' Stone explained. 'Once I had time to calm down, I didn't make him take it out of the movie when I had the legal right to,' she continued. Stone said time helped her process that the scene enhanced the flick. 13 Stone also claimed that she got into a shouting match with Michael Douglas before landing the role. Corbis via Getty Images 13 Michael Douglas seemingly denied her allegations. Corbis via Getty Images She acknowledged that she 'did have the chance to do it differently,' but said, 'I didn't because once had the chance to step back, I understood, as the director, not the girl in the film, that that made the movie better.' Stone also revealed whether she regretted taking on the role. 'It made me an icon, but it didn't bring me respect. But would I do it again? We don't get to make these choices in life. I don't participate in the fantasy world in this way,' she stated. 13 Sharon Stone has previously been vocal about her claims that she was made to believe the crotch shot scene was far less revealing than it was. Instagram 'What I did with what happened is exactly the way I wanted to do it. Verhoeven and I have a wonderful relationship. I would work with him again in a second. We both understand. Even though we have different public ways of discussing it, we understand very well what happened regarding the crotch scene,' Stone explained. The actress was vocal about her claims that she was made to believe the crotch shot scene was far less revealing than it was in her memoir, 'The Beauty of Living Twice.' In it, Stone claimed that she saw the shot for the 'first time' with a room full of agents and lawyers. 13 She alleged she didn't see the actual footage until she was in a room full of lawyers and agents. WireImage 13 Her 'Basic Instinct' director claimed Stone was 'lying' about now knowing what would be shown. Instagram/@sharonstone 'That was how I saw my vagina-shot for the first time, long after I'd been told, 'We can't see anything — I just need you to remove your panties, as the white is reflecting the light, so we know you have panties on,' she explained. Verhoeven previously claimed she was 'lying' about not knowing what would be shown in the scene. 'Any actress knows what she's going to see if you ask her to take off her underwear and point there with the camera,' he told ICON in 2017. 13 Stone said as the 'one with the vagina,' her opinion is the only one that matters and 'the other points of view are bulls–t.' Getty Images However, Stone held firm by stating that as the 'one with the vagina,' her opinion is the only one that matters and 'the other points of view are bulls–t.' The starlet also revealed her alleged explosive first encounter with her co-star Douglas, claiming he 'wouldn't even test with me' after the pair got into a verbal altercation at the Cannes Film Festival before she landed the role in the flick. 'A bunch of us were all sitting, and he was talking about someone and their kids. I really, really knew this person he was talking about,' Stone said of Douglas. 'So I said something and he responded to me, saying, 'What the f–k do you know?' It was in regard to a father-child relationship.' 13 She also claimed that Michael Douglas didn't want to be her co-star following their alleged shouting match in Cannes. Corbis via Getty Images 'So he screams this at me across a whole group of people. And I'm not the person who goes, 'Oh, excuse me, superstar.' I pushed back my chair and said to him, 'Let's step outside.' That's how we first met,' she claimed. Once away from the group, Stone 'explained to him what the f–k I knew about this family he was speaking about, and that I was best friends with the children and the parent. And then we parted. I wouldn't say as best friends, but amicably.' She added, 'I don't think he wanted me to be his costar.' But Douglass shot down those claims, with his rep telling Business Insider he 'doesn't recall seeing or knowing Sharon' until seeing her 'Basic Instinct' screen test. 13 Michael Douglas' rep said the actor 'doesn't recall seeing or knowing Sharon' before seeing her screen test. FilmMagic 'The only time Michael remembers the two of them in Cannes together was when they were there to screen and promote the picture,' the rep stated. The Post reached out to Stone for comment.
