Tobey Maguire and ex Jennifer Meyer 'still dealing with child custody issues'... 9 years after splitting

Tobey Maguire and his ex-wife Jennifer Meyer are still sorting their custody issues five years after they finalized their divorce. The Spider-Man actor, 50, and his former spouse, 48, share 16-year-old son Otis Tobias and 18-year-old Ruby Sweetheart. Maguire is asking for joint legal and physical custody of his son Otis in response to his ex's initial divorce filing from October 2020, according to documents obtained by People. He also asked that child support be determined through private mediation. Jennifer and Tobey met in 2003 while he was shooting Seabiscuit. They were engaged three years later, and welcomed their daughter Ruby in November 2006. They went on to marry the following year, and welcomed their second child, Otis, in 2009. The Hollywood power couple split in 2016 and filed for divorce in 2020. Their 2016 statement on their split mentioned their children. 'After much soul searching and consideration we have made the decision to separate as a couple,' they began. 'As devoted parents, our first priority remains raising our children together with enduring love, respect and friendship.' Tobey appears to be single while Jennifer is engaged to billionaire heir Geoffrey Ogunlesi, the son of Nigerian billionaire lawyer and investment banker Adebayo Ogunlesi. Maguire and Meyer reunited last month for Ruby's high school graduation. 'Congratulations Ruby!!!!! ♥️ Graduate of our dreams. We are so proud of you in every way. We love love love love love you baby ♥️' Meyer wrote in the caption. In December, Jennifer was spotted with her fiance and her son during a rare outing together. The trio were seen shopping for a Christmas tree. Jennifer and Geoffrey became engaged in September. 'YES!!!' the mom-of-two wrote in the caption of the Instagram snap, along with a black heart emoji, the infinity symbol, and sparkling stars emoji. Jennifer, whose best pals are Jennifer Aniston and Courteney Cox, and Geoffrey went red carpet official in November 2023, after dating for several months. Jen is the daughter Ron Meyer, the cofounder of CAA, and former executive at NBC, COO/President of Universal. Meanwhile Tobey was spotted getting cozy with 22-year-old Danish model Mona Tougaard a month after Meyer announced her engagement. Last summer he was linked to a string of young ladies while vacationing in Europe and New York City. Meyer has credited 'angel' Gwyneth Paltrow for her amicable divorce from the actor. Paltrow, 51 was widely ridiculed for announcing her divorce from Coldplay star Chris Martin, 47, as a 'conscious uncoupling' in 2014. But Meyer said the actress' amicable split helped her navigate her own divorce from Maguire. Speaking on the Broad Ideas podcast, jewelry designer Meyer said: 'Right when Tobey and I were starting to break up, I watched what Gwyneth Paltrow was starting to do with Chris — this conscious uncoupling that everyone was making fun of.' 'I got to see it firsthand, and it was the most beautiful thing that I had ever witnessed two human beings go through. She was so loving and kind and open to him and she created this family.' 'I was like, 'Wow, that's not what I was taught growing up. I was taught that divorce was ugly … bad and would never be good.'' Meyer asked Paltrow: 'How did you do that? Please, what do I do? Because we're just starting to break up, and it's feeling very scary. … How can we come together for [these] human[s] we both created that we love? What do we do?' Meyer added that Paltrow introduced her to Dr. Habib Sadeghi: 'She didn't tell me their process, she didn't tell me anything.' Meyer said she had 'hit the jackpot of ex-husbands' with Maguire and added the pair were still 'best friends' years after their divorce.

John Krasinski to write, direct, produce 'A Quiet Place Part III'

John Krasinski is returning to direct, write and produce ' A Quiet Place Part III.' The film has been set for a July 9, 2027 theatrical release, Paramount Pictures said Friday. The first film, released in 2018, was a box-office smash, earning some $341 million worldwide on a budget of only $17 million. It also established Krasinski, who starred alongside his wife Emily Blunt in the post-apocalyptic horror, as a bankable filmmaker. He returned to write and direct 'A Quiet Place Part II," the release of which was delayed over a year due to the pandemic. The franchise also expanded to include a prequel, 'A Quiet Place: Day One.' Krasinski produced but handed over the reins to filmmaker Michael Sarnoski. In total, the three films have grossed over $892 million. Krasinski on Friday posted a graphic with the numeral 'III' and the release date on Instagram. No other details about cast or story were immediately available.

Nepo baby with Hollywood A-list parents makes surprise appearance in And Just Like That – do you know who she is?

A NEPO baby with Hollywood A-list parents has made a surprise appearance in And Just Like That. And Just Like That premiered in December 2021 and focuses on Carrie and friends Miranda Hobbes and Charlotte York as they navigate life in their 50s in New York City. 5 5 5 The third season has seen Carrie struggle to work out her relationship with ex-fiance Aidan Shaw, who is dealing with family drama in Virginia. And in a new episode, fans will see the daughter of two very famous actors make a surprise guest appearance. Ella Stiller is the daughter of Hollywood royalty Ben Stiller and Christine Taylor. She pops up in the episode titled 'Better Than Sex,' and plays the role of Mia. Mia gets pregnant with Miranda's son Brady after they hook up, and a fiery confrontation ensues as Miranda confirms with Mia that Brady is the father. Brady sits down to tell his parents, and Steve is far from happy about the news. 'You were just getting your life together, and now you have f****d it up so bad' he says. Brady admits he'd only found out about the pregnancy because he'd bumped into Mia and she was clearly pregnant. Brady doesn't know whether Mia will keep the baby or give it up for adoption. And Just Like That's new teaser sparks conspiracy theory that Samantha Jones is BACK after Kim Cattrall season 2 cameo Later in the episode, Miranda is seen visiting Mia in the hair salon where she works and quizzes her on the pregnancy, while pretending not to be Brady's mum. Miranda tries to subtly question her about the father of the baby, to which Mia replies: 'He's cool, I guess. It's not like we're gonna raise the kid together. F**k buddy status, you know?' Not too long after, Miranda admits: 'I'm the 'f**k buddy's mother,' which quickly leads her to getting her face sprayed with water and a frosty exchange of words ensues. Funnily enough, Ben and Christine's daughter already has a connection to Sex and The City, given that her grandma Anne Meara - who passed away in 2015 - played Steve's mother, Mary, in four episodes of the original series. Earlier this year, it was revealed that Ella had landed herself a role alongside a House of the Dragon star. The blonde actress will be appearing alongside Emily Carey, who played Lady Alicent Hightower in the HBO series, in a new off-Broadway play. As well as Ella's famous dad, she also has a famous mum too. Christine Taylor starred as Bonnie in Friends and in The Brady Bunch Movie and Zoolander. The young actress has joined the cast of Before This New Year, a play written by Liana Sonenclar that will run Off-Broadway in New York City. Ella will take on the role of Jen in the play, which is about a former high school track star called Alison Bennett. At present, the play has been indefinitely postponed, with a statement from the production provided to Playbill reading: 'The production team is immensely proud of the work that has gone into developing this piece and grateful to all those who have contributed to its journey so far.' 5
