Renate Reinsve rejects her famous actor father in Joachim Trier's Sentimental Value trailer
Luckily, this doesn't seem like a project critics want any sort of distance from. Sentimental Value was a huge hit at Cannes, where it won the Grand Prix this spring. Now it has a trailer for the rest of us, which you can watch below:
The beginning of the trailer immediately establishes that once again, we're dealing with complicated people. 'I can't work with him,' Nora tells Rachel Kemp (Elle Fanning), a young American actress who takes on the role Gustav had previously offered his daughter. 'We can't really talk. My father is a very difficult person.'
The film's official synopsis reads as follows: 'Sisters Nora (Reinsve) and Agnes (Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas) reunite with their estranged father, the charismatic Gustav (Skarsgård), a once-renowned director who offers stage actress Nora a role in what he hopes will be his comeback film. When Nora turns it down, she soon discovers he has given her part to an eager young Hollywood star (Fanning). Suddenly, the two sisters must navigate their complicated relationship with their father — and deal with an American star dropped right into the middle of their complex family dynamics.'
Nora may not have wanted to work with her dad, but Reinsve was clearly game to reunite with Trier, whom she previously worked with on the very-much-not-the-worst The Worst Person In The World. Sentimental Value also reunites Trier with Worst Person co-screenwriter, Eskil Vogt.
'We had this feeling that if we thought too much about the pressure of following that one up, we'd be hindered from reaching in and getting more emotional,' Trier told Vanity Fair of the pressure associated with this feature in May. Luckily, it seems like they didn't struggle all that much in that department. Grab a box of tissues and head to theaters for Sentimental Value, premiering November 7.

Lauren Sánchez got pierced in a very unusual place for her wedding to Jeff Bezos
Unless you've been living under a rock, you'll know that the wedding of the summer - between Láuren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos - happened last weekend, and the world is still talking about it. From the A-list guest list (hello Oprah and the Kardashians) to the grandeur of the Venice ceremony itself, it was a spectacle to behold. But one smaller beauty detail is all we can think about. For her special day, Lauren got a piercing in a very unique place to declare her love to her new husband and mark the next chapter in her life (and changing her last name). The former pilot's long-time nail artist and pal, Imran Shelton, posted a close-up image of Lauren's bridal manicure. The bride opted for a classic yet chic French tip design, favoured by many famous brides-to-be, from Zendaya to Selena Gomez. However, Lauren gave the timeless look a cool twist, debuting a pierced, diamond-encrusted 'B' initial on her ring finger. It hung delicately from her nail and glistened in the Venice sunshine - a dainty yet dramatic homage to her new surname. We've now noticed that she didn't actually sport this bold piercing around Venice until the actual wedding day, which was such a nice touch. While piercing nails might sound extreme, it's actually part of a growing trend. Originating in the early 2000s Y2K era when bold, playful nail art reigned, pierced nails have made a comeback on runways and red carpets alike. Celebs like FKA Twigs and Rosalía have both sported pierced manicures in recent years, making the look a high-fashion statement for those bold enough to try it. Despite reports that Imran was shunned from the wedding, the manicurist was clearly front and centre on the big day, joining Lauren's tightly knit 'glam squad' to help bring her bridal vision to life. A traditional French tip may never go out of style, but thanks to Mrs Sánchez Bezos, it's safe to say nail piercings just had their most glamorous moment yet.

Rachel Brosnahan Embraces Bold Cutouts in Armani Privé for ‘Superman' Fan Event in London
Rachel Brosnahan turned to the runway for inspiration while attending a fan event on Wednesday in London in anticipation of the forthcoming movie 'Superman.' The actress stars in the film alongside David Corenswet and Nicholas Hoult. 'The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel' Emmy Award-winner styled a one-shoulder, sleeveless dress courtesy of Giorgio Armani Privé's spring 2025 couture collection. The shimmering gown featured an aubergine tone, with allover sparkling elements adorning the formfitting fabric. Brosnahan's look also included statement cutouts on the bodice and at the waist of the dress. At the shoulder and near the cutout sections were glimmering jewel embellishments that accentuated the fabric.

She wore stud earrings and a few rings to accessorize her ensemble. Brosnahan often collaborates with stylist Alexandra Mandelkorn, who previously dressed the actress for the 'Superman' premiere in Rio de Janeiro, on June 23. Brosnahan's floor-length dress made its runway debut as part of Paris Couture Week in January. The eponymous designer drew inspiration from Japan, China, India and beyond to create the shimmering tapestry of his couture, marking its 20th anniversary. 'All these rich cultures were etched ever so gently in silhouettes and expressed more vividly via prints, embroideries and beading. Here was an collection defined largely by shimmering or sparkling surface decoration — more than usual chez Armani, from those glass-like fabrics he's been fond of lately to fully beaded gowns with a tulle overlay bearing even more embellishments,' Miles Socha wrote in WWD's review of the collection. Brosnahan stars as Lois Lane to David Corenswet's Clark Kent/Superman in the forthcoming iteration on the 'Superman' comic book stories. The film follows Superman, who must contend with his past and his secret identity while defending the world from dangerous foes. The film hits theaters July 11.

Nicole Kidman hails explosive finale of Nine Perfect Strangers Season 2 as beginning of something deeper
Nicole Kidman has described the explosive finale of Nine Perfect Strangers Season 2 as the beginning of something deeper. "It's like it's only just beginning," the 57-year-old said of the combative final moments between her character, Masha Dmitrichenko, and billionaire David Sharpe, played by 61-year-old Mark Strong. Set in the Austrian Alps, the second season of Hulu's psychological drama ended on 2 July, with the guests of Masha's retreat confronting their traumas through a series of intense therapeutic sessions, often involving psychedelic drugs. According to Variety, the finale saw fractured relationships mended and new bonds formed. Among those attending were Wolfie, played by 32-year-old Maisie Richardson-Sellers, and Tina, portrayed by 25-year-old King Princess, who ultimately broke up, although Tina rediscovered her passion for music. Murray Bartlett, 53, appeared as disgraced former children's TV host Brian, who parted ways with the puppet that defined his past and struck up a new friendship with Agnes, a former nun played by 55-year-old Dolly de Leon. Christine Baranski, 72, and 38-year-old Annie Murphy portrayed Victoria and Imogen, a mother-daughter pair who reconciled, with Imogen later arranging a meeting with Peter, played by 37-year-old Henry Golding. However, the relationship between Masha and David took a darker turn. Earlier in the season, Masha had revealed that her deceased daughter Tatiana was also David's child. Mark said: "It's a fascinating premise that Masha has arranged this group of people knowing that all of them, as you find out in the final episode, have been affected by this guy." In the final episode, David attempts a gesture of reparation, promising to remove his company from the weapons industry. But Masha discovers this is a lie and uses an AI-generated video to publicly force his hand. The last scene takes place in a McDonald's outside Berlin, which Nicole confirmed was a real location. "Yeah, we absolutely were. Just outside of Berlin," she said. Nicole added: "Yeah, chocolate," when asked whether she was drinking a real milkshake. Mark said: "Come lunchtime, everybody just tucked into the McDonald's. It's on a kind of estate outside of Berlin, like a drive pass near a motorway." Filming took place across multiple locations in the Austrian Alps. Nicole said: "We were definitely up in those Austrian Alps." She added director Jonathan Levine and Anthony Byrne helped coordinate the complex schedule.
