Taron Egerton gives hopeful update on Kingsman 3
Taron Egerton still thinks a third Kingsman movie will happen. Work on the next action/spy flick has been ongoing since the 2021 prequel The King's Man, though director Matthew Vaughn, 54, previously said the project had been slowed due to Egerton's busy schedule. Now, the 35-year-old actor - who portrayed Gary 'Eggsy' Unwin in 2014's Kingsman: The Secret Service and its 2017 sequel Kingsman: The Golden Circle - has insisted that he, Vaugn and Harry Hart actor Colin Firth are all still keen to make a third movie. When The Playlist asked Egerton about Vaughn's delay comments, he replied: 'Is that what he said? Yeah, he's so funny. 'He did call me on Friday night, actually. Yeah, look, we both want to do it. And I know Colin is open to doing it, too. 'I think the interesting thing will be figuring out whether we all see the same thing. I love Matthew. Matthew is like family to me. 'I really think there's a brilliant story to tell with the third Kingsman. And I still think it will happen.' Kingsman: The Secret Service - which also starred Mark Strong, Michael Caine and Samuel L. Jackson - follows a rebellious teen who is recruited into a secret spy organisation and trained to become a gentleman agent. As a tech billionaire plots global destruction, the rookie must rise to the challenge and stop him before it's too late. The film proved to be a critical and commercial hit when it debuted in 2014, bringing in $414.51 million at the box office on a production budget of $81 million. While the sequel Kingsman: The Golden Circle wasn't as well-received by critics when it released in 2017, it was still a box office success - grossing $410.9 million against a production budget of $104 million. Egerton previously said he hoped the third Kingsman movie would be a 'fitting' conclusion to the spy franchise. He told Collider: '[Vaughn] has every intention of making it, and I have every intention of playing Eggsy one more time. That was always what I thought I was committed to doing. 'It's the role that made my name, I suppose, in a way, I just want it to be absolutely right if we do it again, and I want the story to do justice to the part that really changed my life. 'I want it to be a fitting ending. And I would, obviously, really hope that Colin would come back for at least a part of it, and who knows? We'll have to see, but we are planning to talk about it, actually, the next time we see one another, so who knows? Watch this space.' The Rocketman star suggested the Argylle filmmaker wanted to put the relationship between Eggsy and Harry to the test in the third movie. Egerton explained: 'Eggsy and Harry [will be in it], obviously. But it's the gang coming back together, and it's one of those moments that ... when we wrote the screenplay, it was very much about, okay, I saw how people loved the relationship of Eggsy and Harry. 'So we just came up with this thing, what could be the ultimate reason for them to either fall in love or to hate each other forever? So that's what this movie is all about is will they or won't they, let's just say.'

Harris Dickinson stars in Rhode Glazing Mist campaign as brand's first male ambassador
Actor Harris Dickinson has been named the first male ambassador for Hailey Bieber's skincare brand, Rhode, starring in the campaign for its newest product: Glazing Mist. The announcement was made Monday alongside a striking black-and-white visual rollout, which shows Dickinson applying the mist — described by Rhode as a 'superfine spray that hydrates and refreshes for a next-level glowy finish.' Dickinson, known for roles in Beach Rats (2017), The King's Man (2021), and Triangle of Sadness (2022), most recently appeared opposite Nicole Kidman in Babygirl. His inclusion in the Glazing Mist campaign aligns with Rhode's latest launch, while also highlighting his rising presence in both film and fashion, having worked with luxury brands like Loewe and Dior. Social media reactions to the campaign have been swift, with fans drawing playful comparisons between Dickinson's viral milk-drinking scene in Babygirl and the mist's dewy aesthetic. Glazing Mist launches June 24 for $30 exclusively on Formulated with key ingredients such as ectoin (a moisture binder), a ceramide trio, beta-glucan, panthenol (vitamin B5), and magnolia extract, the product aims to hydrate, soothe, and protect the skin barrier. It is vegan, cruelty-free, fragrance-free, dermatologist- and ophthalmologist-tested, and has received the National Eczema Association's Seal of Acceptance. Rhode's decision to feature Dickinson reflects a broader shift toward gender-inclusive beauty marketing. Traditionally centered on Bieber and female-identifying influencers, the brand is now expanding its reach. Since its 2022 launch, Rhode has gained attention for its limited product drops, sleek packaging, and social-media-driven campaigns. That growth culminated in e.l.f. Beauty's recent $1 billion acquisition of the brand, with Bieber remaining as chief creative officer.

Hailey Bieber taps Harris Dickinson for newest Rhode campaign, and fans can't get enough of it
Hailey Bieber's billion-dollar beauty brand Rhode, just made a very interesting marketing move. In a surprise twist that no one saw coming but now feels inevitable, actor Harris Dickinson was recently cast in the brand campaign for the brand's latest hydration mist. Internet heartthrob and breakout star of the sultry indie hit Babygirl, Dickinson is known for his magnetic screen presence and quiet intensity and as the acclaimed actor steps into the world of skincare, Bieber opens up about why she chose him. A post shared by rhode skin (@rhode) "I watched [Babygirl] and I thought it was so great. I knew for this campaign that I really, really wanted to use a male face. I'm just really a fan of his work, and I just felt like there could be really good synergy between him and Rhode. I think that was definitely showcased in this campaign,' said Bieber in an interview. 'I didn't want anything to feel too on the nose with Babygirl. I never want to make anything feel gimmicky, and the undertone of it all is there. I wanted it to feel chic and sporty,' she added. As soon as the campaign dropped, the internet lit up with reactions that were downright thirsty. 'He was so good in Babygirl so I'm not mad at this,' wrote one user, echoing the sentiment of many. Another chimed in, 'He's hot… the end lmao.' Over on X , it was chaos in the best way: 'This girl really knows how to lure the market.' One more said, 'Hailey, this was a power move.' Clearly, Rhode's decision to lean into Dickinson's rising sex appeal without turning it into a spectacle hit the sweet spot. Dickinson's star power has been steadily rising since his breakout in Beach Rats (2017), followed by bigger roles in The King's Man and the Palme d'Or-winning Triangle of Sadness. With Babygirl bringing him even more critical acclaim — and placing him alongside Nicole Kidman — he's now gaining fashion clout, too, having worked with the likes of Loewe and Dior.

Henry Golding was inspired by TV series Nine Perfect Strangers to explore wellness retreats
Henry Golding is "going to look into [doing]" wellness retreats because of TV show 'Nine Perfect Strangers'. The 38-year-old actor would avoid the structured programs that aim to improve a person's mental, physical and spiritual wellbeing if they contained the "shenanigans" the characters got up to in the Hulu thriller that sees nine guests meet up at a wellness retreat, set up by Masha (Nicole Kidman) in the Austrian Alps - with her hiding secrets. But the idea of getting respite in his "adult life" appealed to Henry because he was told to not "bother anybody with your troubles" growing up. The 'Another Simple Favor' star - whose alter ego on the show Peter looks to gain approval and decide what he wants in his life - explained to radio presenter Kent 'Smallzy' Small, 41, on the 'Smallzy's Surgery' podcast: "I mean, if a wellness retreat, sort of, included some of the shenanigans that these characters, sort of, get up to, I think I would stay away too. "But, you know, we've been, sort of, talking about the discussion of therapy and how advanced it's become and how part of the zeitgeist it is. "And it's normal now to, sort of, open up. And back, way back, growing up, I was, kind of, taught to be like, you know, don't bother anybody with your troubles. "It's very down, kept it all paddled up. And so this idea of going to a retreat later in my, sort of, adult life seems a little bit more, kind of - I'm curious about it now. "So after the show, I think I'll be looking into - he's [Mark Strong] been to a couple of things. "So, I'm going to look into it." Henry's on-screen dad is Mark Strong, 61, who plays a ruthless billionaire intelligence expert David, and Mark loved his experience of going to a wellness retreat that focused on "relaxation" and a "little bit of medical intervention" to determine how healthy the guests were. 'The King's Man' star said: "I went to one, which was relaxation, coupled with a little bit of medical intervention in order to see how healthy you were. And you ate well, slept well, and had these, sort of, timetable every day of things that you did, like hydrotherapy and shiatsu, and all of this. "There was no mental health examination involved in that. It was really medical and physical."
