When does Love Island end? Here's when to expect the season finale

Yahoo16 hours ago
Love Island USA has become a phenomenon this year, dominating the social media feeds of Millennial and Gen Z users. And many are now wondering when will we find out who the winning couple is?
Here's what we know:
The seventh season of Love Island USA is coming to an end in a couple of weeks. The last two seasons had 37 episodes, with the final one being the reunion. If the current season follows suit with 37 episodes as well, the season finale will air on Sunday night, July 13.
The show airs on Peacock.
Typically, during the season finale, the three or four remaining couples go on their final date before the show announces which couple the viewers voted for and crowned as winners. The finales of the last two seasons featured four finalist couples.

2025's best movies (so far) include 'Sinners,' 'Sorry Baby' and 'One of Them Days'

Often the best movies of the second half of the year come almost preordained as the Oscars Industrial Complex revs into high gear. The first half, though, can offer more of a thrill of discovery. The first six months of 2025 have offered plenty of that, including indie gems, comedy breakouts and sensational filmmaking debuts. Here are our 10 favorites from the year's first half. The Ballad of Wallis Island 'The Ballad of Wallis Island' is the kind of charming gem that's easy to recommend to any kind of movie lover. It is goofy and friendly, has an armful of lovely folk songs, an all-timer of a rambling character, in Tim Key's eccentric and completely lovable Charles, Tom Basden's grumpy, too-cool straight man, and the always delightful Carey Mulligan. 'Wallis Island' is a film about letting go and moving on told with humor, wit and a big heart. Also hailing from the British Isles is the equally delightful 'Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl." (streaming on Peacock) —Bahr One of Them Days The big-screen comedy has been an almost extinct creature in recent years, but Lawrence Lamont's 'One of Them Days' gives me hope. Not only was this buddy comedy a surprise box-office hit, it is probably the exhibit A in the case of Keke Palmer Should Be in Everything. She and SZA, in her film debut, play Los Angeles housemates in a madcap race to make rent. (Streaming on Netflix) —Coyle Sorry, Baby There's a sequence in Eva Victor's delicate, considered and disarmingly funny directorial debut, 'Sorry, Baby' that kind of took my breath away. You know something bad is going to happen to Agnes, it's literally the logline of the film. You sense that her charismatic thesis adviser is a bit too fixated on her. The incident itself isn't seen, Victor places their camera outside of his home. Agnes goes inside, the day turns to evening and the evening turns to night, and Agnes comes out, changed. But we stay with her as she finds her way to her car, to her home and, most importantly to her friend, Lydie (Naomi Ackie). This is a film about what happens after the bad thing. And it's a stunner. (In theaters) —Bahr Black Bag Arguably the best director-screenwriter tandem this decade has been Steven Soderbergh and David Koepp. They were behind the pandemic thriller 'Kimi' and another standout of 2025, the ghost-POV 'Presence.' But their spy thriller-marital drama 'Black Bag,' starring Michael Fassbender and Cate Blanchett as married British intelligence agents, may be their best collaboration yet. It's certainly the one with the most delicious dialogue. How has it taken the movies this long to make a dinner scene with spies dosed with truth serum? (Streaming on Peacock) —Coyle Materialists Celine Song's 'Materialists ' might not be the film people wanted it to be, but it's the film they need in this land of high-end dating apps, designer dupes and everyone pretending to live like minor socialites on Instagram. A thoughtful meditation on money, worth, love and companionship, this is a film that upends everything we've come to think we want from the so-called romantic comedy (the idea of prince charming, the inexplicable wealth that's supposed to coexist with middle class mores). Lifestyle porn will always have a place in the rom-com machine, but this is a populist film, both modern and timeless, that reminds us that love should be easy. It should feel like coming home. 'Materialists' is simply the most purely romantic film of the year. (In theaters) — Bahr Sinners Not only does the wait go on for Ryan Coogler to make a bad movie, he seems to be still realizing his considerable talents. There are six months to go, still, in 2025, but I doubt we'll have a big scale movie that so thrillingly doubles (see what I did there) as a personal expression for its filmmaker as 'Sinners.' This exhilarating vampire saga is ambitiously packed with deep questions about community, Black entertainment, Christianity and, of course, Irish dancing. (Streaming on Max) —Coyle Pavements In a world of woefully straightforward documentaries and biopics about musicians, Alex Ross Perry decided to creatively, and a little chaotically, upend the form with his impossible-to-categorize film about the 90s indie band Pavement. Blending fact, fiction, archive, performance, this winkingly rebellious piece is wholly original and captivating, and, not unlike Todd Haynes's 'I'm Not There,' the kind of movie to turn someone who's maybe enjoyed a few Pavement and Stephen Malkmus songs into a fan. (In theaters, streaming on MUBI July 11) —Bahr April A rare and exquisite precision guides Dea Kulumbegashvili's rigorous and despairing second feature. Beneath stormy spring skies in the European country of Georgia, a leading local obstetrician (Ia Sukhitashvili) pitilessly works to help women who are otherwise disregarded, vilified or worse. This is a movie coursing with dread, but its expression of a deep-down pain is piercing and unforgettable. (Not currently available) —Coyle On Becoming a Guinea Fowl A visually, and thematically arresting marvel, Rungano Nyoni's darkly comedic, stylish and hauntingly bizarre film about unspoken generational trauma takes audiences to a place, I'm guessing, many have never been: A Zambian family funeral. And yet its truths ring universal, as the elder generation turns their heads from the awful truth that the dead man, Fred, was a predator and pedophile, while the younger wonders if things must stay as they are. (Streaming on HBO Max on July 4) --Bahr Friendship On TV, Tim Robinson and Nathan Fielder have been doing genius-level comedy. Fielder hasn't yet jumped into his own films, but, then again, it's hard to get an epic of cringe comedy and aviation safety like season two of 'The Rehearsal' into a feature-length movie. But in 'Friendship,' writer and director Andrew DeYoung brings Robinson, star of 'I Think You Should Leave," into well-tailored, very funny and dementedly perceptive movie scenario. He plays a man who awkwardly befriends a cool neighbor (Paul Rudd). While their differences make for most of the comedy in the movie, 'Friendship' — which culminates in a telling wink — is really about their similarities. (Available for digital rental) — Coyle

‘The Running Man' Trailer: Glen Powell Fights To Survive Deadly Game Show In Edgar Wright's Stephen King Adaptation For Paramount

Paramount Pictures has debuted an explosive first trailer for The Running Man, Edgar Wright's adaptation of the classic Stephen King novel, starring Glen Powell, which is slated for release in theaters on November 7. Published under King's pen name Richard Bachman, The Running Man is set in a near-future society, where a game show of the same name is the highest-rated on television—a deadly competition where contestants, known as Runners, must survive 30 days while being hunted by professional assassins, with every move broadcast to a bloodthirsty public and each day bringing a greater cash reward. Desperate to save his sick daughter, working-class Ben Richards (Powell) is convinced by the show's charming but ruthless producer, Dan Killian (Josh Brolin), to enter the game as a last resort. But Ben's defiance, instincts, and grit turn him into an unexpected fan favorite — and a threat to the entire system. As ratings skyrocket, so does the danger, and Ben must outwit not just the Hunters, but a nation addicted to watching him fall More from Deadline 'The Running Man' Trailer: Glen Powell Leads Edgar Wright's Latest 'Sentimental Value' Trailer: First Look At Joachim Trier's Cannes Grand Prix Winner Starring Renate Reinsve, Stellan Skarsgård & Elle Fanning Paramount Lands Rom-Com Spec 'The Romantic' From Deborah Kaplan & Harry Elfont; Dave Bautista Aboard To Star Wright's feature take on The Running Man is the second, on the heels of TriStar's 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger starrer.

'FI' just won the box office. Meet the man who's cracked the blockbuster code.

He's the man behind your favorite summer blockbusters: Top Gun: Maverick, Twisters and now F1: The Movie. With heart-pounding action, A-list stars and a commitment to realistic spectacle, Joseph Kosinski has quietly become one of Hollywood's most reliable hitmakers. F1 zoomed into theaters this past weekend with an impressive $55.6 million domestic debut and a $144 million total haul, marking the biggest global opening of leading man Brad Pitt's career and the first commercial win for Apple Films. Kosinski doesn't just create summer blockbusters; he builds worlds at 200 miles per hour, and audiences can't get enough. But while horsepower is pivotal, the real fuel behind the films is heart, Kosinski revealed in a conversation ahead of his latest film's release. "I grew up in the '80s and '90s, going to the movies, and I think I'm trying to recreate that big screen experience that I had as a kid," he told Yahoo, praising directors Steven Spielberg and James Cameron. "Those are the experiences I remember seeing on the big screen," he said. "I approach [blockbusters] from the point of view of: what would I want to see if I went to the movies? Selfishly, what's a world that I want to dive into and live in for a few years? I got to create this incredible scenario where I have a Formula One team for two seasons and travel the world with Brad Pitt as my lead driver." F1 follows Sonny Hayes (Pitt), a retired driver coaxed back into racing by an old friend and former teammate (Javier Bardem) to help a struggling Formula One team. While driving for the fictional underdog APXGP, Hayes mentors young rising star Joshua Pearce, played by actor Damson Idris. The film is a blast: the racing scenes are thrilling, the settings are realistic and flashy and the actors' performances are great, with Pitt in the driver's seat, charming as ever. While F1 is action-packed, it feels both massive in scale and personal as you root for the characters. You don't need to know anything about Formula One to get pulled in. Positive word of mouth and good reviews should keep F1 holding strong at the box office over the holiday weekend, much like Kosinski's last two hits. It's no secret Hollywood loves a franchise, and we love watching them. Top Gun: Maverick was a sequel more than three decades in the making, while Twisters was a reboot. Both had built-in audiences. Those were career highlights for Kosinski, but in a landscape dominated by existing IP, he said it was freeing to develop F1 as an original story. "It's fun to be able to create a character from scratch, which we're able to do here, for an audience to meet all new people. There's no canon. There's no history we need to stick to. We get to start with a blank sheet of paper and take people on a ride learning about Sonny Hayes, APXGP and the world of Formula One," he said. Still, building something new from the ground up came with its own set of challenges. It wasn't casting a big name — "Brad said this was a movie that he had been looking for his whole career and was never able to find or put together" — it was convincing Formula One to let them shoot from inside the sport's most guarded spaces. "Formula One is a very tightly controlled, closed system. To be open to us not only making a film about them, but to make it from inside their organization and shooting at the races ... was a huge ask," he said. Authenticity is key to Kosinski's formula. In Top Gun: Maverick, U.S. Navy pilots flew the actors on top-of-the-line fighter jets. He needed similar access for F1 in order to get the same level of realism that audiences responded to in Maverick. "We were able to get inside and actually shoot at real races, shoot on the track and make all the people that are in the sport part of our film," he explained. That immersive approach didn't stop at the script or the setting; it also meant putting Pitt behind the wheel. "He was all in," Kosinski confirmed. "By the end of the film, we could not get him out of the car. He was having way too much fun." There's a pivotal moment shot at the Belgian Grand Prix, which features one of the sport's most dangerous corners. Pitt couldn't hide his excitement, which was a problem given the context of the scene. 'It's called Eau Rouge ... and every time Brad went through that corner, he had a big smile,' Kosinski recalled. 'I had to remind him over the radio that it was a tense scene, and please, do not smile as you go through it. He had a blast shooting this movie — and lucky for me, he was just a natural talent when it came to driving. That was something that you really can't teach. He kind of had that from the beginning, and that's how we were able to pull this all off.' Of course, no summer blockbuster is complete without a little heat, and in F1, that spark comes from the tension between Sonny and the team's technical director Kate McKenna, played by Kerry Condon. "I really wanted Kerry's character to be an integral part of the plot," Kosinski said. "Which is why she's the team technical director, right at the center of everything.' But Kosinski shared that it was crucial not to force a romantic storyline. "It's got to be integral to the story," he insisted. The dynamic between driver and engineer gave the director a natural way to build some chemistry. 'When a Formula One team is losing, the drivers tend to blame the car, and the engineers tend to blame the driver,' he continued. 'I thought that was a great place of tension to start a relationship from — and see how they work through their workplace differences to find a connection.' On the surface, it may seem like Kosinski's secret sauce is simple: movie stars, action and a splash of romance. But there's always something deeper under the hood. Yes, F1 has race cars. Top Gun brought the roar of planes and motorcycles. Twisters — well, besides Mother Nature's fury — has a pickup truck. His upcoming Miami Vice? Probably boats. (His laugh after pointing that out indicated that's likely a yes.) But despite the heavy machinery that seems to follow him from film to film, Kosinski expressed that's not what makes a summer movie click. 'For me, it's more about the world,' he said. 'When I go to the movies, I want to disappear into this world created by the director and see it through their point of view, go on an adventure and come out the other side with maybe a new understanding or a new point of view about something I would have never known about.' Kosinki hopes he achieved that with F1. Give him two-and-half-hours of your time, and he'll take you on a ride. 'You don't need to know anything about racing to enjoy this film. You're going to learn what you need to, meet some incredible characters and get a sense of what it's like to do something only 20 people in the world get to do every weekend.'
