"Because you are so dumb," Robyn says, at the same time he says, "Because you're my sister-in-law."

"No, I don't blame Meta Quest. Neil Patrick Harris is an amazing actor with the nurturing voice of an angel, but even though I haven't hit puberty yet, I still know when you're getting totally screwed," Reynolds added.

Henry Golding reveals why playing James Bond is ‘every actor's kind of nightmare'
The name is Golding… Henry Golding. And he has some strong opinions on playing the next Martini-sipping 007. 'I think that's every actor's kind of nightmare,' Golding, 38, told People on Wednesday about taking on the role of James Bond. 'But at the same time, [you're] also wanting to kind of add something new to a franchise.' Advertisement 11 Henry Golding at Netflix's 'The Old Guard 2' premiere. Xavier Collin/Image Press Agency / BACKGRID 'Why can't they bring out more agents or more OO's?' asked the 'Old Guard 2' star. 'I think that would be so much more fun, because there just isn't the restraints and the expectation.' Despite his views on the franchise, Golding confessed, 'Maybe I'm just a p—y. I don't know. But I think I would love it so much more if there wasn't that overhanging cultural pressure.' Advertisement 11 Henry Golding attends CinemaCon 2018.

And I was like, 'Well, you need to reset again.' So let's kill my character off and go find another Bond and go find another story. Start at [age] 23, start at 25, start at 30.'

Wordle hints today for #1,470: Clues and answer for Saturday, June 28
Hey, there! Welcome to the weekend. We hope it's a fun and/or relaxing one for you. As always, there's another mystery Wordle word for you to deduce. Here's our daily Wordle guide with some hints and the answer for Saturday's puzzle (#1,470). It may be that you're a Wordle newcomer and you're not completely sure how to play the game. We're here to help with that too. Wordle is a deceptively simple daily word game that first emerged in 2021. The gist is that there is one five-letter word to deduce every day by process of elimination. The daily word is the same for everyone. Wordle blew up in popularity in late 2021 after creator Josh Wardle made it easy for players to share an emoji-based grid with their friends and followers that detailed how they fared each day. The game's success spurred dozens of clones across a swathe of categories and formats. The New York Times purchased Wordle in early 2022 for an undisclosed sum. The publication said that players collectively played Wordle 5.3 billion times in 2024. So, it's little surprise that Wordle is one of the best online games and puzzles you can play daily. To start playing Wordle, you simply need to enter one five-letter word. The game will tell you how close you are to that day's secret word by highlighting letters that are in the correct position in green. Letters that appear in the word but aren't in the right spot will be highlighted in yellow. If you guess any letters that are not in the secret word, the game will gray those out on the virtual keyboard. However, you can still use those letters in subsequent guesses. You'll only have six guesses to find each day's word, though you still can use grayed-out letters to help narrow things down. It's also worth remembering that letters can appear in the secret word more than once. Wordle is free to play on the NYT's website and apps, as well as on Meta Quest headsets and Discord. The game refreshes at midnight local time. If you log into a New York Times account, you can track your stats, including the all-important win streak. If you have a NYT subscription that includes full access to the publication's games, you don't have to stop after a single round of Wordle. You'll have access to an archive of more than 1,400 previous Wordle games. So if you're a relative newcomer, you'll be able to go back and catch up on previous editions. In addition, paid NYT Games members have access to a tool called the Wordle Bot. This can tell you how well you performed at each day's game. Before today's Wordle hints, here are the answers to recent puzzles that you may have missed: Yesterday's Wordle answer for Friday, June 27 — PLAIN Thursday, June 26 — OFFER Wednesday, June 25 — COMFY Tuesday, June 24 — ELITE Monday, June 23 — ODDLY Every day, we'll try to make Wordle a little easier for you. First, we'll offer a hint that describes the meaning of the word or how it might be used in a phrase or sentence. We'll also tell you if there are any double (or even triple) letters in the word. In case you still haven't quite figured it out by that point, we'll then provide the first letter of the word. Those who are still stumped after that can continue on to find out the answer for today's Wordle. This should go without saying, but make sure to scroll slowly. Spoilers are ahead. Here is a hint for today's Wordle answer: A speech that a political candidate uses over and over on the campaign trail. There are no repeated letters in today's Wordle answer. The first letter of today's Wordle answer is S. This is your final warning before we reveal today's Wordle answer. No take-backs. Don't blame us if you happen to scroll too far and accidentally spoil the game for yourself. What is today's Wordle? Today's Wordle answer is... STUMP Not to worry if you didn't figure out today's Wordle word. If you made it this far down the page, hopefully you at least kept your streak going. And, hey: there's always another game tomorrow.
