Glen Powell is set to return to the big screen in early 2026 as the star of A24's newly retitled thriller 'How to Make a Killing.' The studio has confirmed a 20th February 2026 theatrical release for the film, directed and written by John Patton Ford. The project, formerly known as 'Huntington,' also features Margaret Qualley and Ed Harris in major roles.

What is 'How to Make a Killing' About?

Inspired by Robert Hamer's 1949 British crime classic 'Kind Hearts and Coronets,' the story follows Becket Redfellow, played by Glen Powell. After being pushed out by his immensely wealthy family, Becket becomes determined to reclaim what he believes is rightfully his, using any means necessary to secure his inheritance.

Ford's screenplay has had a long journey to the screen, originally earning a spot on the 2014 Black List under the title 'Rothchild.' Earlier iterations of the project had Shia LaBeouf and Mel Gibson attached when Jon S. Baird was slated to direct.

Cast of 'How to Make a Killing'

The supporting cast for 'How to Make a Killing' includes Jessica Henwick, Zach Woods, Topher Grace, and Bill Camp. The film was financed and produced by StudioCanal. It will debut on the same day as two other major releases: 20th Century Studios' horror film 'Psycho Killer' and Lionsgate's 'I Can Only Imagine 2.'

Glen Powell Shares Thoughts on 'How to Make a Killing'

Glen Powell recently discussed the project, expressing excitement for audiences to finally see the finished film. He shared that a new official title was in the works before the announcement and praised Ford's work, calling him a filmmaker whose vision he is eager for viewers to experience.

Following the massive success of 'Top Gun: Maverick,' 'Anyone but You,' and 'Twisters,' Glen Powell has quickly become one of Hollywood's most in-demand leading men. His upcoming slate includes J.J. Abrams' thriller 'Ghostwriter,' co-starring Jenna Ortega, Emma Mackey, and Samuel L. Jackson. He also appears in Paramount's 'The Running Man,' currently in theatres after a softer-than-expected opening weekend.

Despite completing production of 'In the Grey' in the summer of 2023, the movie's release prospects continue to look uncertain. On paper, the project seemed like a guaranteed hit: Henry Cavill, Jake Gyllenhaal and Eiza González headline the cast, with Ritchie directing in his signature blend of high-intensity action and sharp-edged humour. 

What is 'In the Grey' About?

The film centres on two elite extraction specialists and a top-tier negotiator assigned to save a group operating in the murky territory between criminal activity and the law—a setup perfectly suited to Ritchie's adrenaline-charged filmmaking style, seen in titles like 'The Covenant,' 'Wrath of Man,' and 'The Ministry of Ungentlemenly Warfare.'

Originally scheduled for a 17th January, 2025 theatrical debut under Lionsgate, 'In the Grey' disappeared from the studio’s release calendar without warning. Since then, updates have been scarce.

'In the Grey' Uncertain Future

Producers Benjamin Kramer and Teddy Schwarzman of Black Bear Pictures recently spoke with Deadline but declined to offer any clarity on the film's status. When asked about both 'In the Grey' and another upcoming Ritchie project, 'Wife and Dog,' Schwarzman simply offered no comment. He also avoided confirming whether the titles are still housed under Black Bear, hinting at possible shifts in distribution.

The silence has led to mounting speculation. Unlike 'Operation Fortune: Ruse du Guerre,' which Lionsgate delayed in 2022 due to real-world geopolitical sensitivity, 'In the Grey' does not appear to face similar cultural or political concerns. The holdup may involve post-production challenges, strategic scheduling, marketing concerns or internal studio uncertainty. For now, no one close to the film is providing answers.

What Is Guy Ritchie Working on Instead?

While 'In the Grey' sits in the vault, Ritchie's career shows no signs of slowing down. Since 2020, he has directed eight films and three television series, including Netflix's hit 'The Gentlemen,' which is returning for a second season.

His Paramount+ crime drama 'MobLand,' led by Tom Hardy, was renewed for Season 2 in June. After stepping away from 'Road House 2,' Ritchie is gearing up to shoot a follow-up to 'Layer Cake' with Jason Statham, scheduled to start production in January.

Given the A-list cast and Ritchie's consistent output, shelving 'In the Grey' indefinitely would be an unexpected move. Cavill, Gyllenhaal and González are all busy with major projects—Cavill with 'Highlander,' Gyllenhaal with 'Road House 2,' and González with 'I Love Boosters'—yet fans are still hoping that their long-completed collaboration with Ritchie eventually sees the light of day.

For now, the fate of 'In the Grey' remains one of the most puzzling mysteries in the action-thriller world—and audiences are waiting for answers.

Good news for all the 'Game of Thrones' fans. After a Thrones-free 2025, the network has now greenlit 'House of the Dragon' season 4 and 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' season 2. The announcement was made during an HBO press presentation in New York City, solidifying a multi-year slate of medieval fantasy storytelling.

Although season 4 of 'House of the Dragon' has been ordered, HBO has not designated it as the show's final chapter. Showrunner Ryan Condal has previously shared that he envisioned a four-season arc to fully depict the brutal Targaryen civil war known as the Dance of the Dragons. Following the renewal news, HBO CEO Casey Bloys said that the network typically allows creators to determine when a series should end and confirmed that there are no updates yet on whether 'House of the Dragon' will conclude after season 4.

'House of the Dragon' is Not Ending Soon

HBO also announced that 'House of the Dragon' season 3 will debut next summer, continuing the fiery conflict between rival Targaryen factions.

Francesca Orsi, executive vice president of HBO Programming and head of Drama Series and Films, said the network is excited to deliver new seasons of both shows for the next three years. She emphasised that, together, these series demonstrate the vast scale and depth of George R. R. Martin's world.

'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' Future

'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms,' based on Martin's beloved 'Dunk and Egg' novellas, will premiere on 18th January. Orsi described the series as an inspiring underdog story and teased that House of the Dragon's third season will feature some of its most massive and intense battles yet.

Set decades after 'House of the Dragon' and roughly fifty years after the death of the last dragon in Westeros, 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' follows Dunk, played by Peter Claffey, a squire to a fallen hedge knight. Seeking to earn money, he decides to enter a local tournament using his late master’s armour. Along the way, he meets a determined bald young boy known as Egg, who volunteers to serve as his new squire.

Ira Parker serves as showrunner and co-creator of the new series. Season 1 adapts Martin's novella 'The Hedge Knight,' while the newly confirmed season 2 will bring 'The Sworn Sword' to life.

Meanwhile, Condal has teased that 'House of the Dragon' season 3 is the most ambitious instalment yet. He noted that fans waiting for the savage and merciless violence that defines the Dance of the Dragons will see it delivered in abundance.

HBO's Other Renewals

The press event also confirmed additional HBO renewals for 2026, including a second season of Mark Ruffalo's crime drama 'Task,' along with new seasons of comedies 'The Chair Company' and 'I Love LA.'

Additionally, Genndy Tartakovsky's acclaimed adult animated series 'Primal' will return for season 3 on 11th January 2026.

The 78-year-old acting legend debuts a striking new look in the upcoming prequel, which bridges the timeline between the 2023 film 'The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes' and the hit series that propelled Jennifer Lawrence to global fame in 2012. Glenn Close steps into the role of Drusilla Sickle, a chilling Capitol official responsible for overseeing the selection of tributes in the deadly Hunger Games.

Glenn Close's Transformation in 'The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping'

The trailer reveals Glenn Close sporting a bold orange bob with blunt bangs, vivid red lipstick and sharply defined brows as she presides over the reaping ceremony in District 12. The transformation marks one of her most extreme character shifts to date.

Glenn Close has said in recent interviews that she delights in roles that allow her to fully reinvent herself. She shared that working on 'The Hunger Games' has been an exciting collaboration for her and described the new film as a massive production featuring large crowds, helicopters, chariots and horses.

According to the studio, 'The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping' returns viewers to Panem and follows a young Haymitch Abernathy, played by Joseph Zada, 24 years before the original Hunger Games story begins. The film centres on the morning of the Fiftieth Hunger Games, better known as the Second Quarter Quell.

Star-Packed Cast of 'The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping'

The star-packed cast includes Jesse Plemons, Ralph Fiennes, Kieran Culkin, Elle Fanning, McKenna Grace, Maya Hawke, Whitney Peak and Kelvin Harrison Jr.

Glenn Close has long been admired for disappearing into roles. In her 2011 film 'Albert Nobbs,' she portrayed a woman living as a male butler in 19th-century Ireland. More recently, in the 2024 horror film 'The Deliverance,' she transformed into a chain-smoking grandmother with a love of flashy outfits and younger men.

Fans will meet her newest character when 'The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping' arrives in theatres on 20th November, 2026.

While awaiting the prequel's release, viewers can catch Close in Hulu's campy legal series 'All's Fair' and in 'Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery,' the third entry in Rian Johnson's hit detective franchise. Set in a small upstate New York town, the film casts Close as Margaret Delacroix, a church manager and confidante to monsignor Jefferson Wicks, who becomes the victim of a shocking Easter Week murder.

The entrepreneur, DJ and recording artist, Paris Hilton, 44, has released the first teaser for her upcoming documentary 'Infinite Icon: A Visual Memoir,' unveiled on 19th November. The film documents Hilton's emotional and creative journey as she prepares for her first full-length concert at the Hollywood Palladium, held shortly after the release of her 2024 album 'Infinite Icon.'

What is 'Infinite Icon: A Visual Memoir' About?

Described as a new documentary concert film, the teaser captures Paris Hilton becoming visibly emotional in the days leading up to her major performance in October 2024. She admits in the footage that the pressure is intense because people can be quick to judge, and she openly shares that she felt nervous stepping onto the stage.

The documentary also revisits Hilton's rapid rise to fame and the party-girl persona that defined her public image in the early 2000s. She reflects on how many people only saw a carefree young woman enjoying the nightlife, unaware that the loss of innocence and personal challenges were approaching. The narrator expands on the era's celebrity culture and its toll on women in the spotlight, before Paris Hilton explains that she survived those years by refusing to internalise the harsh criticism directed at her, choosing instead to focus on finding light during difficult times.

The teaser ends with Hilton stating that the power of music cannot be fully described and that music ultimately saved her life.

She previously shared that the new album symbolises significant growth in her life. Her first album marked a fun, carefree era when she did not yet take music as seriously. She explained that she has endured and evolved in ways she never expected, and 'Infinite Icon' reflects that transformation.

A secondary school in the UK has reportedly banned students from singing songs from the popular Netflix movie 'KPop Demon Hunters,' sparking widespread discussion among parents and fans online.

Lilliput Church of England Infant School in Poole, Dorset, informed parents on 14th November that some individuals were deeply uncomfortable with the film’s references to demons, as reported by the BBC. The school explained that these concerns stemmed from the belief that demons represent spiritual forces viewed as being in opposition to God and goodness.

Why 'KPop Demon Hunters' Got Banned?

Acting head teacher Lloyd Allington addressed the issue again recently. He acknowledged that several parents had shared positive feedback about the movie's songs, noting that many highlight themes such as empowerment and teamwork. However, he emphasised that the school also needed to support families who found the subject matter challenging or conflicting with their beliefs.

'KPop Demon Hunters,' now one of Netflix's most successful animated films, follows the fictional K-Pop girl group Huntr/x as its three members battle demonic forces through martial arts and the power of music. Its soundtrack has become highly popular among young fans, contributing to the songs being sung frequently at school.

The school's initial message asked families to encourage children not to sing music from the film on campus, explaining that this request was made out of respect for students and parents who felt the themes clashed with their faith.

'KPop Demon Hunters' Supporters

Not all parents agreed. One parent told the BBC they felt the reasoning was unreasonable and shared that their daughter is a big K-pop fan, along with most of her friends. Other parents noted that songs such as 'Golden' had a positive influence on their children, helping them learn teamwork and confidence.

Allington stated that the school respects each family's right to choose what content their children enjoy at home. He added that the goal is not to discourage students from liking the film but to help them understand that classmates may hold different beliefs and to encourage respect for those perspectives.

'KPop Demon Hunters' continues to grow in popularity worldwide, but at this Dorset school, the soundtrack will remain off-limits during the school day as staff work to maintain a supportive environment for all families.

The studio unveiled the early look at the upcoming prequel 'Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping' on 20th November, giving audiences their first glimpse at the origin story of Haymitch Abernathy. The film, directed by Francis Lawrence and adapted from Suzanne Collins' novel, explores how a young Haymitch is forced into the 50th Hunger Games long before he became the mentor portrayed by Woody Harrelson in the original franchise.

Cast of 'Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping'

Rising actor Joseph Zada, 20, takes on the role of the younger Haymitch, stepping into the arena as his character faces the brutal Quarter Quell. Zada, known for his breakout in 'We Were Liars,' leads the cast alongside Whitney Peak, who plays Lenore Dove Baird.

The film features an impressive ensemble, including McKenna Grace, Jesse Plemons, Kelvin Harrison Jr., Maya Hawke, Lili Taylor, Ben Wang, Edvin Ryding, Elle Fanning, Kieran Culkin, Glenn Close, Billy Porter and Iris Apatow. Ralph Fiennes joins the franchise as President Snow, taking over the role previously played by Donald Sutherland.

Prime Video is officially reopening the 'Stargate,' launching a brand-new chapter in the iconic sci-fi franchise. The Amazon-owned platform has greenlit a new series simply titled 'Stargate,' produced by Amazon MGM Studios—now the home of the franchise's rights. 

The project will be led by creator and showrunner Martin Gero, a longtime contributor to the 'Stargate' universe after working as a writer and producer across all three previous live-action series.

The franchise's legacy stretches back to the 1994 feature film from Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich, which inspired three hit series—'Stargate SG-1,' 'Stargate Atlantis,' and 'Stargate Universe.' It also spawned two direct-to-DVD films, an animated series, and a 2018 web project. This upcoming Prime Video series marks the franchise's first television return since 'Stargate' Universe ended in 2011.

While Prime Video is keeping story details top secret, the streamer describes the project as a bold new era for the 'Stargate' mythology. Behind the scenes, Gero will be joined by executive producers Joby Harold and Tory Tunnell of Safehouse Pictures, along with Devlin and Emmerich. Longtime architects Brad Wright and Joe Mallozzi will contribute as consulting producers, helping ensure the new instalment respects the franchise's established history.

Fans of 'Alita: Battle Angel' finally have a reason to get excited again. Six years after the 2019 film left viewers on a dramatic cliffhanger, James Cameron has offered the most encouraging update yet on a long-awaited sequel. The original movie, adapted from Yukito Kishiro's beloved manga, became a fan favourite and ended with the clear promise that Alita's fight against the sky city of Zalem was far from over. Now, Cameron is signalling that the story may soon continue.

James Cameron's Update on 'Alita: Battle Angel' Sequel

In a new interview with Empire, the filmmaker revealed that meaningful progress is being made behind the scenes. He explained that he is actively developing the sequel with director Robert Rodriguez and that both remain fully committed to bringing at least one more Alita film to the screen.

James Cameron expressed deep gratitude for the unwavering loyalty of the fanbase and shared that he and Rodriguez have discussed a broader story framework that could even support a third movie. Still, he emphasised that the priority is ensuring a second instalment becomes a reality, and he confirmed that development is moving forward.

About 'Alita: Battle Angel'

Since debuting in 2019, 'Alita: Battle Angel' has earned more than $404 million globally and maintains a strong 91% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. 

The story follows Alita—played by Rosa Salazar—a cyborg with a human brain who awakens with no memory of her past and begins to uncover her true identity under the care of Dr Dyson Ido, portrayed by Christoph Waltz. Director Robert Rodriguez previously noted that Disney's acquisition of 20th Century Fox created uncertainty around the sequel’s future, but the recent update suggests the project is gaining momentum.

What Else Is James Cameron Working On?

James Cameron has built a legendary filmmaking career since 1978, consistently delivering blockbuster hits that have shaped modern cinema. Beyond 'Titanic' and the groundbreaking 'Avatar' franchise, his filmography includes iconic titles such as 'The Terminator,' 'Terminator 2: Judgment Day,' 'The Abyss,' 'Aliens of the Deep,' and 'True Lies.' His next major release, 'Avatar: Fire and Ash,' arrives this December and returns audiences to Pandora for a third chapter with an extended runtime.

James Cameron is also deep into development on Avatar 4 and Avatar 5, both of which remain untitled and have yet to reveal their plots.

Image Courtesy: IMDb

Outside of the Avatar universe, he was previously connected to a remake of 'Fantastic Voyage,' though director Roland Emmerich stated in 2024 that the collaboration became difficult due to Cameron's reportedly demanding creative standards.

For now, fans still waiting for 'Alita: Battle Angel 2' can revisit the original, which is currently streaming on Hulu—and hold onto hope, as James Cameron's latest update marks the clearest sign yet that Alita's story will continue

With just days to go before the theatrical release—and only weeks before its Netflix debut—'Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery' is already generating major excitement. The third film in Rian Johnson's acclaimed murder-mystery series brings Daniel Craig back as detective Benoit Blanc, this time surrounded by another star-packed ensemble featuring Josh O'Connor, Josh Brolin, Mila Kunis, and several more high-profile names.

Because this film marks the second entry in Johnson's two-sequel deal with Netflix following the breakout success of 'Knives Out,' fans are naturally wondering whether this latest chapter will be the final one.

Future of 'Knives Out'

Even before the movie hits theatres, speculation about the franchise's future is growing quickly. Rian Johnson has hinted that both he and Craig are eager to continue telling Benoit Blanc stories, and he recently shared that the two have already begun brainstorming what a potential fourth film could look like. 

He also noted that completing 'Wake Up Dead Man' left him feeling creatively energised, suggesting that there is still plenty of momentum behind the series.

'Wake Up Dead Man' Already Winning Over Critics

If a fourth film does happen, it will have a high standard to meet—especially when it comes to assembling another standout cast. 'Wake Up Dead Man' features an impressive roster that, in addition to Craig and the already-mentioned stars, includes Glenn Close, Kerry Washington, Andrew Scott, Daryl McCormack, Thomas Haden Church, Jeremy Renner, and Cailee Spaeny.

The movie premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival to strong acclaim. Netflix's official synopsis describes the story as centring on a shocking, seemingly impossible murder that destabilises a small town. Mila Kunis plays local police chief Geraldine Scott, who seeks Benoit Blanc's help in solving a case that appears to defy all logic.

'Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery' arrives on Netflix on 12th December 2025, with early buzz signalling that another hit is on the way—and that the franchise’s future may be brighter than ever.

With anticipation building for his upcoming ping pong drama, Timothée Chalamet has shared a significant update on the future of the 'Dune' franchise. During a recent event where he spoke with Adam Sandler about past and upcoming projects, Chalamet revealed that filming on 'Dune: Part Three' has officially wrapped. 

Production began in early July, making it the fastest-moving shoot of any 'Dune' instalment directed by Denis Villeneuve. The director previously offered fans a first look behind the scenes earlier this summer, signalling that cameras were officially rolling.

'Dune: Part Three' Release Date

As of now, 'Dune: Part Three' is slated for an 18th December 2026 release. The date is currently shared with 'Avengers: Doomsday,' though industry watchers widely expect one of the blockbusters to shift its debut window.

If both films were to stay locked on the same day, the box office could see a potential phenomenon on the scale of "Barbenheimer"—and possibly one that lives up to that level of excitement, unlike the attempted pairing of 'Wicked' and 'Gladiator II.' With both 'Dune: Part Three' and 'Avengers: Doomsday' positioned as massive 2026 tentpoles, it would be unusual for them to arrive on the same weekend.

Timothée Chalamet returns as Paul Atreides, joined once again by Rebecca Ferguson as Lady Jessica, Zendaya as Chani, and Florence Pugh as Princess Irulan. Jason Momoa comes back as Duncan Idaho following his role in 'Dune: Part One,' while newcomers like Robert Pattinson join the ensemble. After her brief appearance in Part Two, Anya Taylor-Joy is also expected to take on a larger role in the third film.

When Does 'Dune: Part Three' Take Place?

Unlike the first two films, which unfold consecutively, 'Dune: Part Three' will feature a considerable time jump. The story moves forward twelve years from the events of 'Dune: Part Two,' aligning with the timeline in Frank Herbert's novels. 

While the first two movies adapt Herbert's original 'Dune' book, the third film turns to the sequel novel, 'Dune: Messiah.' The plot follows Paul in his role as Emperor, exploring his political and military struggles with the great houses, his marriage to Princess Irulan, and the complicated continuation of his relationship with Chani.

Their Relationship Journey & What This Night Means

Gigi and Bradley's pairing has been steadily making waves since linking up in October 2023. In May 2024, Gigi posted a number of birthday pictures on Instagram, including a private kiss with Cooper, marking the formal beginning of their romance. According to sources, their relationship has developed organically as both of them have planned to take things slowly and envisions for long-term possibilities. 

Gigi, who co-parents her daughter Khai with her ex Zayn Malik, has described her bond with Bradley as "very romantic and happy," praising his belief in her creative dreams and how much he supports her personally and professionally. The duo were previously caught together at a playoff game earlier this year, so their Eagles game date isn't the first time they've been spotted together at football events.

Gavin Casalegno, best known for his role in 'The Summer I Turned Pretty,' and his wife Cheyanne just marked a beautiful milestone: their first wedding anniversary.

Gavin gave people a glimpse of his deep appreciation for the previous year spent together by sharing the adorable moments on Instagram.

A Warm and Personal Anniversary Celebration

On 17th November, Gavin gave his followers a glimpse into how he and Cheyanne celebrated their first year of marriage through a series of Instagram Stories.

Over one clip, Gavin simply captioned, "One year of loving you," showing him and Cheyanne slow-dancing together, while another post from a friend read, "All back together BECAUSE it's been one year of the Casalegno's."

Their Secret Romance: From Private Beginnings to Public Joy

Compared to other famous romances, Gavin and Cheyanne's love story has been more secretive. The actor was able to keep their romance mostly secret even though they started dating in the spring of 2023. Their marriage came as a surprise to many fans when, on 12th November, 2024, Gavin posted a carousel of wedding photos on Instagram. His caption read simply, "FOREVER CAPTIVATED BY YOU."

With Cheyanne wearing a lace-sleeved white gown and a striking gold crucifix necklace, the ceremony, which took place outdoors amid rolling hills and flowery arches, appeared intimate and emotional. Cheyanne, a committed Christian and registered nurse, later clarified that they made the deliberate decision to keep everything confidential. In an Instagram video, she claimed that they were able to "eliminate any outside opinions" and enjoy their relationship free from outside pressure because of the secret.

She admitted it was hard—at times, she even had to remove her engagement ring when in public to maintain their privacy. In a series she's dubbed her "wedding archives," she now shares glimpses of their engagement: moments of proposal, a sweet celebration with friends, cake‑smearing, and laughter.

Reflections on Their First Year and What's Ahead

Gavin and Cheyanne seem closer than ever as they commemorate their first year of marriage. Gavin's heartfelt Instagram tributes demonstrate how much he treasures their journey, from their covert romance to the delight of announcing their union in public. Their desire to recognize their relationship in a true, intimate way is reflected in their anniversary watch party, which is surrounded by friends and memories.

Meanwhile, Cheyanne's openness about faith, love, and the sacrifices they made to protect their relationship highlights the depth of their bond. Their story, which is based on love, faith, and the decision to live their lives independently, appears to be just getting started after a year of togetherness.

Angelina Jolie's youngest son, Knox Jolie‑Pitt, is making headlines with a dramatic style update that has already gone viral. Knox, who is 17 years old, was recently spotted in Los Feliz, California in a bright pastel-pink, spiky pixie cut that many admirers claim is reminiscent of one of his mother's most famous late 1990s hairstyles. The transformation not only highlights Knox's individuality and emerging personal style, but also evokes memories of Jolie's edgy, fearless looks that made her a style icon early in her career. 

Jolie is well-known for her influence in Hollywood fashion and trendsetting roles, is now able to witness, a new generation of her family embracing and reinterpreting her legendary styles, signaling a fusion of personal expression and familial legacy.

Knox's Bold Hair Transformation and 90s Inspiration

Knox was spotted wearing casual streetwear, such as embroidered floral pants and a pale-pink hoodie, with his striking hair immediately drawing attention. The soft pastel-pink-dyed spiky top and short-cropped sides give the ensemble a punk-rock edge that is evocative of the daring style that Angelina Jolie popularized in her late 20s. The resemblance to Jolie's whimsical, grunge-inspired pixie cut in the 1998 romance drama 'Playing by Heart,' which solidified her status as a daring fashion icon, was immediately noticed by fans.

Many people praised Knox for boldly playing with colour and style at such a young age, and social media erupted with comments comparing him to his mother. Knox is clearly channeling the rebellious energy and individualism that characterized Jolie's early career with this hair decision, even if it has been updated with a lighter, more playful tone.

Family Legacy, Angelina's Life, and Influence on the Kids

Knox's style transformation is part of a larger pattern seen across Angelina Jolie's children, many of whom have previously echoed their mother's fearless fashion choices. While the other Jolie-Pitt children frequently combine high-fashion influences with playful, youthful experimentation, his older sister Shiloh has been especially well-known for experimenting with edgy, tomboyish outfits that evoke Jolie's own daring red carpet appearances.

Angelina, now in her early 50s, has remained deeply invested in raising her six children—Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Vivienne, and Knox—while balancing selective film projects and humanitarian work around the globe. She often stresses the value of encouraging her kids to express themselves creatively, whether via fashion, art, or other mediums, despite the demands of her profession. Knox's willingness to try a striking hair colour seems to reflect this mindset, implying a family setting that promotes self-assurance, uniqueness, and a sense of kinship with their mother’s legendary past. 

Knox's Emerging Identity and Public Reception

Knox is obviously experimenting with self-expression at the age of 17 in ways that are representative of his age and heritage. His pastel-pink pixie cut is more than simply a fad; it's a way for him to express his individuality in public while also paying tribute to his mother's famous '90s style. Angelina Jolie herself has long been celebrated for her strong, independent image both on and off the screen, and it's evident that her children have inherited a fearless approach to self-expression.

The kid is being praised by both fashion analysts and fans for continuing the family legacy of making daring, memorable public statements and for fusing nostalgia with contemporary design.

During an appearance on 'The Will Cain Show,' the 26-year-old daughter of Chiefs owner Clark Hunt and Tavia Hunt shared that she wanted her gift to reflect both personal meaning and family tradition.

Gracie Hunt's Meaningful Gift to Taylor Swift

In the midst of a heated public spat with his estranged wife, Cardi B, rapper Offset has quietly deactivated his Instagram account. The move comes just days after Cardi made serious allegations, claiming Offset questioned the paternity of her newborn with NFL star Stefon Diggs—a claim that has escalated their very public breakup. As the drama continues to unfold, both parties are trading barbs, and fans are left wondering what will come next.

A Controversial Post Sparks Public Backlash

When screenshots of Offset's now-deleted Instagram Story became viral online, the situation escalated. The brief message, which read simply "My kid lol," triggered widespread speculation that he was insinuating the newborn son Cardi B shares with her current partner, Stefon Diggs, was his. Cardi did not hold back in her reaction: on X (formerly Twitter), she wrote that she had been "harassed and threatened" for more than a year, saying, "I feel like my life is in danger…it's all fun and games until it's too late."

She also warned, "MF'ers do anything for attention…LEAVE ME TF ALONE." Cardi demonstrated how profoundly the conflict has affected her in a more in-depth discussion on X Spaces when she disclosed that she has "every single receipt" of private harassment becoming public. 

Meanwhile, Offset's side has refuted the authenticity of the allegation. The "my kid" remark, according to his representative, was false and never came from him. The representative claims that the story got out of hand, and Offset insists that he "wishes her nothing but the best." The timing of the post—right after news of Cardi's newborn with Diggs broke—only intensified the media storm, leaving their fans and followers divided.

Offset Disappears from Instagram Amid Escalating Feud

Offset made a drastic move shortly after the uproar started by quietly deactivating his Instagram account. His profile now shows a "profile unavailable" message, confirming that he's cut off that avenue of public communication. This disappearance comes as Cardi publicly voices her distress over what she describes as persistent harassment, turning private battles into a very visible spectacle. Her heartfelt writings, emotional posts in Spaces, and warnings to her former partner all show a lady driven to protect her peace and her child. 

Offset's team, meanwhile, continues to insist that the controversy is based on "fabricated" social media content, suggesting his exit was a reaction to being wrongly accused.

Their Tumultuous Past and Cardi's New Beginning

The relationship between Offset and Cardi B has always been difficult. The two married in 2017 and share three children—Kulture, Wave, and Blossom.  Cardi had filed for divorce in July 2024, but their separation has been widely publicized, with both of them making headlines. Soon after that, Cardi started dating Stefon Diggs, and the two welcomed their first child together in early November. For Cardi, this new season has felt empowering—she's spoken openly about her journey forward, her career, and her desire to protect her growing family.

However, the continuous conflict with Offset and his seemingly persistent allegations serve as a reminder of how ugly their history is even as she tries to move forward. Cardi's vulnerability, her call for peace, and her insistence on accountability all paint a picture of someone determined to carve out her own path, even as the noise surrounding her refuses to quiet down.
