Jesse Palmer Told Bachelor in Paradise Cast Not to Date Goldens
This season is just as chaotic as ever, but there's a new twist: Bachelor and Bachelorette alums are joined by the 60+ year old cast of The Golden Bachelor and The Golden Bachelorette. And while technically a May-December romance is "allowed," apparently everyone was encouraged to stick to their age group.
"I told everybody, as a group, we've got two generations sharing the beach—I can't tell anybody who to love and who they're not allowed to love," Jesse Palmer told TV Guide. "I encouraged them to stay in their generational lanes. And above everything, do not make it weird."
He added, "If it does happen, as long as it's consensual, that's obviously a possibility. There are a lot of examples in the real world of different age ranges dating—we've seen successful examples of that. Again, as long as it's not weird, that's the most important thing."
Meanwhile, showrunner Scott Teti spoke to Variety about the possibility of cross-generational romance, saying "They are all immersed in the same living area, but because of the way they were integrated, and when we brought the Goldens in, they stayed in their respective lanes. A lot of thought went into that. And that's not to say that it couldn't happen or it didn't happen, but largely speaking, they gravitated towards their own peers. There's a lot of camaraderie and partying and hijinks that goes on between all of them."

Review: ‘I Know What You Did Last Summer' is ‘Love Island,' but with murder
The new 'I Still Know What You Did Last Summer' is like a certain sexy reality show, but where people get killed off instead of leaving the villa. There are impossibly good-looking, 'Love Island'-like young people at a sun-dappled seaside resort occasionally hooking up with lots of drama, then murders spoil the fun. Although it is the first feature theatrical release in the franchise since 1998's 'I Still Know What You Did Last Summer,' it seems so familiar. The first two are a constant staple on streaming and cable, and a one-season Prime Video series, which like the original 1997 film was based on Lois Duncan's 1973 young adult novel, debuted in 2021. The current film is not a remake, but a sequel, and one of its drawing cards is that original cast members Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. reprise their roles. Plus another person, but we're not allowed to say. But it's most definitely the year 2025 and it's a young person's show. While not a game changer in any way, director Jennifer Kaytin Robinson (Netflix's ' Do Revenge ') has delivered an appealing, efficiently packaged but rather predictable slasher film with a game cast. In other words, it's as advertised — no more, no less. The weird thing, though, is that the 'crime' that gets the young people in trouble isn't really a crime. In the original, they accidentally hit a pedestrian and then sank the body in a nearby river to hide the evidence. That's a couple of crimes at least. In this one, a careening car goes off the cliff trying to avoid hitting a clowning around Teddy (Tyriq Withers) as a group of five young people are enjoying Fourth of July fireworks. 'That's manslaughter!' says one as they justify fleeing the scene. Uh, not really. Any good lawyer can prove that the car was driving dangerously. Anyway. The damage is done, and Teddy and the rest of them — his fiance, Danica (Madelyn Cline of ' Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery '), her best friend Ava (Chase Sui Wonders of Apple TV+'s ' The Studio '), Ava's current crush Milo (Jonah Hauer-King of ' The Little Mermaid ') and the group's estranged friend Stevie (Sarah Pidgeon of Hulu's ' Tiny Beautiful Things ') agree never to tell anyone. Nonetheless, a year later, at Danica's bridal shower, she gets a greeting card with the ominous 'I know what you did last summer' scrawled in blood. The bodies then begin to pile up, courtesy of what I call the Gorton's Fisherman's evil twin. There are plenty of twists and turns — by the killer's signature hook as well as the plot — as the 20-somethings band together to stay alive and solve the crime. They look to Julie James (Hewitt), a survivor in the first two films, for advice; Ray Bronson (Prinze) is a bar owner who is mentoring Stevie. Look, 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' is fun, recapturing a '90s slasher film vibe. It's no 'Bring Her Back,' the Aussie horror chiller released around Memorial Day, but it's not meant to be.

HBO confirms The Last of Us season 3 will arrive in 2027
If you're all caught up on The Last of Us (the TV version that is) then you'll know that season two made clear that when the show returns it will focus a lot more on Kaitlyn's Dever's Abby. But it sounds like we're going to have to wait a while to see that side of the story unfold. Speaking to Variety off the back of The Last of Us netting HBO 16 Emmy nominations this week, the company's CEO, Casey Bloys, said season three is "definitely planned for 2027." Bloys didn't offer any more specific information about the release window, but the next batch of episodes arriving in the first half of 2027 would be consistent with the roughly two-year gap between seasons one and two. The HBO Max chief also told Variety that a decision has yet to be made on whether the remaining chunk of narrative from The Last of Us Part II will be adapted into more than one additional season. Bloys said that the decision is being left to showrunner Craig Mazin. Mazin's decision likely won't involve input from Neil Druckmann, though. The Naughty Dog studio head and co-creator of the eponymous video game series stepped away from his role on the show after season two. But Bloys unsurprisingly doesn't think (publicly at least) that Druckmann's departure will affect the development of season three. "It was fantastic to have Neil involved. A lot of people don't realize that Neil has a full time job creating video games and running Naughty Dog. It's a really big job that he's got. So I understand why he needs to focus on that," he told Variety . "But I believe he's given us a good blueprint with the show. And obviously Craig is a pro, so I think we'll be in excellent shape. I'm not worried at all." If you are looking for a way to bridge the gap between now and what could be the final season of The Last of Us , a replay of the game it's based on might be the way to go. Last week, Naughty Dog introduced a new Chronological Mode to the remastered version of the sequel that ditches the game's frequent flashback sequences to focus on Ellie and Abby's respective Seattle plotlines as they unfold.

Patrick Schwarzenegger Reacts To White Lotus Emmy Nominations After Snub
A total of eight actors received Emmy nominations for their performances in Season 3 of The White Lotus — and, somehow, Patrick Schwarzenegger was not one of them. I'm not sure what the Television Academy members were watching, but, IMO, Patrick's performance as Saxon Ratliff was one of the obvious standouts of the series — particularly that heartbreaking moment in the last episode with Aimee Lou Wood's character…IYKYK. And, for what it's worth, it seems I'm definitely not the only person who feels that way, with Patrick being widely identified, by both fans and critics, as one of the biggest snubs of the 2025 nominations. 'Nominating The White Lotus for a bazillion awards but leaving out Patrick Schwarzenegger is... a choice,' one X user wrote. 'Big thumbs down!!''Patrick Schwarzenegger was left out of the Emmys and he gave the best male performance in the third season of THE WHITE LOTUS,' agreed another. 'I will not forgive them.''i'm not an awards person but i just wanna say patrick schwarzenegger was robbed,' added someone else. Fortunately, however, it appears Patrick is taking any disappointment in his stride. After the nominations were announced yesterday, the 31-year-old took to his Instagram story to celebrate the show's 24 nominations, which, along with all the other acting nods for his costars, included Outstanding Drama Series, and both Outstanding Directing and Writing for a Drama Series. 'So awesome,' he wrote, alongside two lotus emojis. On top of that, Jason Isaacs, who played his father on the show and beat him out for a nomination in the Supporting Actor in a Drama Series category, revealed that Patrick was the very first person to congratulate him. 'I thought, 'I guess I didn't get nominated,' because someone would have called me,' Jason told Variety while reacting to his nom. 'At which point the phone, the computer, and the iPad started melting with well wishes. Patrick was the first person to text me, God bless him.' If one thing's for sure, Patrick certainly earned himself a legion of new supporters off the back of The White Lotus — and hopefully that means he's caught the eye of a few casting directors, too. We'll get you that nom, Patrick!
