Hold onto your churros: Challengers-mania has spilled off of the Phil’s Tire Town court and onto the Met Gala 2024 carpet, with Josh O’Connor and Mike Faist in two custom Loewe looks. The Met Gala dress code, “Garden of Time,” borrows its name from a fantastical J.G. Ballard short story.

The Crown and Challengers star plays a grief-stricken grave-robber in Alice Rohrwacher’s transfixing voyage into the underworld
It’s another sad day for awards shows. Per The Hollywood Reporter, the MTV Movie & TV Awards won’t air this year because MTV plans to “reimagine” the show’s format for 2025.

He is running for the Senate as an immigrant who made good, reaching out to Ohio voters with a stirring, only-in-America bootstraps story: arriving as a child from Colombia, taking a risk on a struggling business, and then turning it into a smashing success and himself into a millionaire 100 times over. Running under the banner of Donald J. Trump’s populist political movement, Bernie Moreno, the Republican challenging Senator Sherrod Brown, humbly calls himself a “car guy from Cleveland” and...
Ahead of a week of fresh episodes, here’s what we learned from the Everybody’s in L.A. premiere.
Having spurred two Academy Award-winning film adaptations since its Broadway premiere in 1957, West Side Story has emerged as a timeless concoction of love story and cautionary tale. A modern spin on Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, the musical takes place on the Upper West Side of Manhattan in the crosshairs of a power struggle between two rival gangs — the white Jets and the Puerto Rican Sharks.
