That Bumble Inc. founder Whitney Wolfe Herd couldn’t participate in her own biopic is precisely what drew actor and producer Lily James to it. The filmmakers didn’t even reach out to Wolfe Herd because the project tackled material that was covered by a nondisclosure agreement.

“Part of why I wanted to make this movie is to explore how NDAs are weaponized against women,” James says in a phone call, her homegrown British accent a stark contrast to the cheery American one she assumes as the bubbly tech founder in Swiped. The NDA in question was part of Wolfe Herd’s 2014 settlement with Tinder and parent IAC/InterActiveCorp, now IAC Inc., which she’d sued for discrimination and sexual harassment. “In a way this film becomes a form of reclamation not just for Whitney but for women who have been told to keep quiet,” James says.

International sales company Cercamon has boarded world sales on Romanian filmmaker Mihai Mincan‘s “Milk Teeth,” which will world premiere in the Horizons competition at the Venice Film Festival.

The drama, set during the final days of Nicolae Ceausescu’s dictatorship in 1989, follows 10-year-old Maria who becomes the last witness to her sister’s mysterious disappearance in a small, isolated town. Caught between reality and fantasy, political oppression and the emergence of the “new world” at the dawn of the 1990s, Maria embodies a lost generation of children who believed in freedom only to realize their voices would go unheard.

The film stars Emma Ioana Mogos, Marina Palii, Igor Babiac and Istvan Teglas.

For director Mihai Mincan, the project draws from personal experience while avoiding sentimentality. “Although largely created from personal memories, the world of ‘Milk Teeth’ tried to stay away from any form of nostalgia,” he said. “Thinking about those days, when I was a child and Romania was about to change its identity from Socialism to democracy, I realised not only that childhood had nothing ‘beautiful,’ ‘pure’ or ‘naive.’ But on the contrary, in its tension, its sense of fear and confusion, we can find a reflection of our world today.”

“We were immediately drawn to the bold vision of ‘Milk Teeth’ and the emotional depth of its characters,” said Sebastien Chesneau, CEO at Cercamon. “Mihai Mincan delivers a striking film that speaks to universal themes through a uniquely Eastern European lens. We’re proud to represent such a powerful and resonant work on the international stage.”

“Milk Teeth” is produced by deFilm (Romania) in coproduction with Remora Films (France), Ström Pictures (Denmark), StudioBauhaus (Greece) and Screening Emotions (Bulgaria). The production received support from multiple European film funds including Romania’s National Cinema Center, France’s CNC, the Danish Film Institute and Bulgaria’s National Film Center.

Cercamon has sold widely Gaza-set documentary “Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk,” directed by Iranian-French filmmaker Sepideh Farsi.

“We are delighted to welcome Cercamon as the sales agent for Milk Teeth,” said producers Radu Stancu and Ioana Lascar from deFilm. “Their expertise and commitment to distinctive cinema make them the ideal partner to bring the film towards audiences worldwide.”

For Mincan, “Milk Teeth” marks his second feature following “To the North,” which also premiered in Venice’s Horizons competition in 2022. The filmmaker, who graduated from the University of Philosophy in Bucharest and later earned an MBA from the University of Poitiers, began his career as a journalist before transitioning to filmmaking in 2008.

The project participated in TorinoFilmLab 2023, where it received both the Production Award and Green Filming Award, as well as the Baltic Event Co-Production Market and ECAM Forum 2025.

Armin van Buuren’s acclaimed Face2Face series arrives for four consecutive Sundays at Ushuaïa Ibiza, from 7 to 28 September. The concept promises an innovative back-to-back format that places pure musical connection and a “true in-the-moment performance“.

Following a successful run of early-season shows in June and July, which included a six-hour open-to-close set, Armin now brings the Face2Face experience to the open-air venue in Playa d’en Bossa.

Each week, he will perform opposite a different guest artist, with a spontaneous, unscripted exchange where creativity is sparked in real time.

The Trance titan said of the concept, “Bringing my Face2Face concept to Ibiza for the first time, as part of my residency at Ushuaïa, is really special to me.

Ibiza has always held a special place in my heart, and to experience this level of connection with the crowd, stripped back and focused purely on the music, is something I’ve been longing to do here. I can’t wait to share this journey with everyone on the dancefloor.”

The first party in this later run promises an exceptional start. Armin will perform alongside Oliver Heldens, who will also deliver a solo set. They are supported by Olympe and Avalan Rokston.

In subsequent weeks, a different musical theme will be explored, ensuring every show feels distinct.

The four week run will also feature leading DJs Ben Gold, Lilly Palmer, Maddix, Funk Tribu, D.O.D., AVIRA, Inafekt and Seth Hills.

The season will conclude with an exclusive four-hour closing set from Armin, in what will be a fitting finale to an ambitious summer series.

With only four shows scheduled, this limited series offers an unprecedented opportunity to witness a world class artist reimagining the live DJ experience in the heart of Ibiza.

Bath and Body Works is diving further into the storybook world of Disney, debuting a new scent collection inspired by two storied characters: The Evil Queen and Maleficent.

Titled the New Villains Collection, the line, which officially launches on Sept. 3, will include an array of products, including fine fragrance mist, candles, lip gloss, hand soap and sanitizer, body wash and decorative accessories. Prices range from $1.95 to $79.95. These additions build upon the brand’s partnership with Disney following the success of its past Princess Collection among the younger consumer base.

“Our growing relationship with Disney allows us to continue delivering even more immersive, culturally resonant experiences to fans around the world, through coveted, expertly crafted products we know our customers will love,” Betsy Schumacher, chief merchandising officer of Bath and Body Works, told WWD.

Unlike the light-hearted etherealness of the Princess Collection, both the Evil Queen and Maleficent boast a haunting aesthetic — bolstered by poisonous apple packaging and a dark forest design — which is designed to catapult consumers inside each story, bringing it to life with a juxtaposition of sweet and musky notes. The Maleficent set, specifically, emits a fragrance comprised of dark red apple, vanilla suede and wicked pear. The scent composition is made to mimic the formidable character’s “dark allure and commanding presence,” according to the official press release. Meanwhile, the Evil Queen set combines the essences of plum, berries and “mystical woods,” encapsulating the “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” villain’s harrowing elegance and forbidden temptation.

“Disney characters unlock unique and timeless storytelling that connects deeply with fans of all ages,” Liz Shortreed, senior vice president of the Americas and global softlines at Disney Consumer Products, told WWD in an emailed statement. “Our latest collaboration with Bath and Body Works brings Disney Villains to life through fragrance and infuses the characters’ signature edge and unapologetic confidence into bold scents that add a fresh dimension to everyday moments.”

The collections will feature a total of 39 products. Accessories include Jack-o-lantern soap holders, the Evil Queen’s mirror keychains, faux crystal sword room fresheners and glowing half-eaten apple perfume bottles.

Bath and Body Works has made a habit of churning out trend-focused collections based on consumer interest. Back in May, the brand launched its “Off the Vine” fragrance, positioning itself as a supporter of the 2025 “tomato girl summer” movement. Products included the Eau de Parfum, Fine Fragrance Mist, Body Lotion, Ultimate Hydration Body Cream, Body Wash, Gentle & Clean Foaming Hand Soap and a 3-Wick Candle. The aroma was designed to evoke the sensorial experience of picking tomatoes in the garden, with both floral and fruity notes.

Sitting in a makeup chair at 4 a.m. every morning for five grueling hours might sound like torture to most actors, but for Indian star Satyadev, it became an unexpected journey of self-discovery. The intensive daily routine was necessary to transform him into the title character of “Rao Bahadur,” Venkatesh Maha’s upcoming psychological drama that explores how doubt can consume and destroy.

“All my films, I never have makeup. I always used to do characters which are rooted and not heavy makeup intensive,” Satyadev tells Variety. “My makeup artist used to take, like, 10 minutes max. And I’m kind of a very… I can’t sit for so long. Then the universe gives you something which you’re not comfortable with, always. It wants to test you.”

The film, which spans three decades from the 1960s to 1990, required the actor to undergo 10 different look tests to perfect his character’s evolution through time. The makeup team had to elevate his cheekbones, reshape his eyebrows, add prosthetic elements including a substantial belly for later sequences, and craft the intricate facial hair that defines the aristocratic Rao Bahadur.

“By the time we used to shoot in mid summer, it was very hot … the makeup and the mustache and everything is going to irritate you to the core,” he explains. “But this five hours of self-reflection which I used to do to myself used to set me right for the next 12 hours.”

The project represents a reunion between Satyadev and director Maha, who previously collaborated on “Uma Maheswara Ugra Roopasya.” Maha, acclaimed for “C/o Kancharapalem,” spent four years developing “Rao Bahadur” before bringing it to the actor. The film explores the Telugu concept of doubt as a demon – following how a small seed of suspicion can grow into something massive and destructive.

“The first instance when I heard it, I knew that people are going to get taken aback by the Rao Bahadur role,” Satyadev says. “It will grow on you. It will pull you into that world. You can’t get out of it.”

The project gained significant momentum when popular actor Mahesh Babu and Namrata Shirodkar’s GMB Entertainment came aboard as presenters, working alongside producers A+S Movies and SriChakraas Entertainments. For Satyadev, the backing represents validation of the film’s global potential.

“When they presented it to Mahesh-sir, he immediately accepted it,” he reveals. “This exactly aligned with our dream of taking it global or taking it to a larger audience. Someone as big as Mahesh-sir, what he can do for the film is unmatched.”

The actor has built a reputation for taking on morally complex characters rather than traditional heroic roles, working mainly in Telugu-language productions. His diverse filmography includes the breakout hit “Bluff Master,” supporting roles in major productions like “Kingdom” and “Ram Setu,” where he played a crucial supporting role alongside Akshay Kumar in the Bollywood action-adventure film about an archaeologist investigating a legendary bridge.

“Even that character I just did. I didn’t want to have regret in life,” he says about “Ram Setu.” “When it got released on Oct. 25, 2022, the calls that I got from the north [Indian] circuit — I never got those many calls from my own language. Everyone was calling me, congratulating me.”

That experience reinforced his belief that Indian cinema is transcending traditional regional boundaries. “I think it’s transitioning to Indian film industry, which gives us a bigger footprint in global cinema,” he observes. “It’s now an Indian film industry. It’s no more Telugu or Tamil or Kannada.”

Satyadev credits the “Baahubali” franchise with breaking barriers that allowed films like the Telugu-language “Pushpa,” Kannada-language “Kantara” and Malayalam-language “Manjummel Boys” to find pan-Indian success. “People started believing that we can cater to a larger audience if we are true to our storytelling. It doesn’t depend upon the budget – it’s the storytelling and if you put your heart into it.”

The actor’s philosophy extends to his project choices, where he prioritizes stories that won’t leave him with regrets. “There’s only one thing – I shouldn’t have a regret thinking that I should have done this,” he explains. “I don’t want to have that regret in life.”

“Rao Bahadur” demanded extensive location work, with the team shooting for 35 days in palaces in Madanapalle to achieve an authentic 1960s atmosphere. The attention to detail extended beyond makeup to costume design and set decoration, reflecting the production’s ambitious scope.

“We just wanted to make sure, right from the day when we started off the film, we know we are catering to a bigger audience,” Satyadev says. “We never restricted ourselves saying that let’s give the best product, and let’s not have any boundaries. Let’s cater to every audience possible.”

“‘Rao Bahadur’ is like a platter for an actor especially… where you have everything. The performance, the story, the setting, the art, everything combined. It’ll be talked about for ages for what the film is about,” he adds.

With “Rao Bahadur” targeting a summer 2026 release with international subtitled distribution, Satyadev continues building his diverse portfolio. He has Sharan Koppisetty’s crime comedy “Full Bottle” completing post-production for an October release, an action drama with director Ajay Nag, and another project with debutant filmmaker Lakshmi in various stages of production.

“We have to give that extra thing for the audience because they have to see something big,” he says of the current theatrical landscape. “The world has to be totally interesting for them to come into the theaters and watch it.”

The first footage of “Rao Bahadur” debuted on Monday — watch below.

Sir Billy Connolly has warned fans that scammers are using artificial intelligence to impersonate him online.

The Scottish comedian and actor – affectionately known as The Big Yin – said his wife Pamela Stephenson had also been targeted.

In a message on his website, the 82-year-old said: “Dear friends, I have learned that, unfortunately, online scam artists are targeting my fans and supporters.

“They are impersonating me, often reaching out to fans soliciting direct messaging.

“They create multiple deceptive social media and email accounts, and there could well be criminal intent.”

Sir Billy, who was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2013, said his official Facebook page is his only social media account – alongside his website, billyconnolly.com.

He warned: “I do not have an Instagram, X, Snapchat, Telegram or any other social media account.

“I never interact directly with fans or supporters, and would never suggest they direct message me, meet me, send me money or purchase goods directly.

“I do not sell memberships, fan cards, meetings. I will never suggest meeting personally or ask for personal information.

“If you are asked for any of the above, it is a scam. My likeness and the sound of my voice can be created by AI… so beware!”

Search Engine: Notes from the North Korean-Chinese-Russian Border

By which a strip of land became a hole in time – Durs Grünbein

Grandfather I cannot find,
flesh of my flesh, bone of my bone,
what country do you belong to:

where is your body buried,
where did your soul go
when the road led nowhere?

Grandfather I’ll never know,
the moment father last saw you
opens a wormhole

that has no end: the hours
became years, the years
forever: and on the other side

lies a memory of a memory
or a dream of a dream of a dream
of another life, where what happened

never happened, what cannot come true
comes true: and neither erases
the other, or the other others,

world after world, to infinity –
If only I could cross the border
and find you there,

find you anywhere,
as if you could tell me who he is, or was,
or might have become:

no bloodshot eyes, or broken
bottles, or praying with cracked lips
because the past is past and was is not is –

Grandfather, stranger,
give me back my father –
or not back, not back, give me the father

I might have had:
there, in the country that no longer exists,
on the other side of the war –

This week marks a return-visit to the work of the award-winning Korean-American-British poet and playwright Suji Kwock Kim. It’s from her pamphlet Notes from the North, published by Smith/Doorstop in 2022, and was a 2019 winner of its annual International Book and Pamphlet competition. Focused on the violent disruptions experienced by the poet’s family members during the Korean war and subsequent North Korean dictatorship, the collection was described by Amy Wack, one of the competition judges, as “a scorched family album, rescued from the ruin”.

Search Engine is an invocation to the poet’s grandfather, circling round a series of three apostrophes that suggest the intensifying fact of his absence: “Grandfather I cannot find”, “Grandfather I’ll never know” and “Grandfather, stranger”. That the voice in its fruitless search reverberates over much of human history, 20th century history in particular, is signalled by the epigraph. In the East German poet Durs Grünbein’s Portrait of the Artist as a Young Border Dog, the dog remembers the now-invisible border and the “strip of land” he once guarded: “Watchtowers are forgetful, / Like eyes which have been torn from their sockets. / Gone already: the separating place’s / Two or three names. // The trick’s now unbetrayed / which made a strip of land a hole in time. / I’m glad my brow does not reveal a thing.”

Kim’s triplet stanza gives a sense of the circularity of the search-within-a-search enforced by the “hole in time”. For her, the hole is a wormhole. In her quest for the specificity she needs to flesh out the truth of her past, the searcher asks her grandfather: “what country do you belong to: // where is your body buried, / where did your soul go / when the road led nowhere?” Why these questions are urgent is explained in the preceding poem, Searchlight. The grandfather leaves his 10-year-old son (the poet’s future father) in a forest in North Korea’s far north, “whispering Wait in the woods until I come back.” But the boy’s father doesn’t return, ever. The poem evolves into a series of agonised questions as to why the abandoned son hasn’t tried to find him. The searchlight’s brightest illumination is saved for the questioner’s final sharp pang of insight: “Is it better not to know what happened, as if the not-knowing could keep him alive?”

While the “searchlight” has become a “search engine” in the current poem, the wormhole of infinite connections flows on: it “has no end”, as time, for the child, waiting in the woods for his father to return, would have seemed to have no end. There is still a border between now and the past, and “on the other side // lies a memory of a memory / or a dream of a dream of a dream / of another life …” The puzzle of alternative possibilities is interrupted in the ninth stanza by the device of making the challenged reality so harshly present it shoulders all alternative dreaming aside: “no bloodshot eyes, or broken / bottles, or praying with cracked lips / because the past is past and was is not is – ” But again, there’s a feeling of circularity in the shifts of consciousness suggested, between drunkenness and thirst, or sleeplessness and prayer.

Scrupulously precise, despite her passion, the speaker utters her last plea (“Grandfather, stranger, / give me back my father –”) and instantly checks herself, “or not back, not back, give me the father // I might have had …” In the search engine of the poem, complexity of thought always coexists with openly expressed emotion. The title metaphor implies that the desire for answers could, should, be matched by the availability and interconnectivity of facts; if it’s not, the drive to go on seeking answers in the absence of connection can be relentless. Physics can’t help the recovery of the lost “flesh of my flesh, bone of my bone …” Time can’t be reversed, and the search is abandoned unfinished, “there, in the country that no longer exists, / on the other side of the war –”

Kim writes, “There are an estimated 10 million separated families (이산가족) divided between North and South Korea, including my own.” For additional context, her short essay, no end / to the end, is essential reading.

Jolie said that she was bound to remain in L.A. under a custody agreement

Angelina Jolie poses at the Cannes Film Festival on May 16, 2025 in Cannes, France.

Actress Angelina Jolie is said to be getting ready to part ways with the historic Los Angeles estate that she has called home for the last eight years-as she prepares for a move away from the U.S.

According to multiple reports, the Oscar-winning starlet is planning to “put the house up for sale” in the coming months with a view of relocating abroad when her youngest children, twins Knox and Vivienne, turn 18 in July next year.

Jolie, 50, has previously revealed her desire to live outside of the U.S., telling The Hollywood Reporter that she was only residing in California because it was one of the conditions of her divorce settlement from her ex-husband, Brad Pitt.

Speaking to the outlet about the terms of the agreement with Pitt, 61, in the 2024 interview, Jolie revealed that she was bound to remain in L.A. until all of their children reach the age of 18, admitting at the time that she hoped to spend “a lot of time in Cambodia” when she leaves.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie in 2015 in New York City.

Now, as that date approaches, sources claim that Jolie is beginning to make preparations for her exit from U.S. soil, with an insider telling People: “[Angelina] plans to relocate as soon as Knox and Viv turn 18 next year. She’s eyeing several locations abroad. She’ll be very happy when she’s able to leave Los Angeles.”

“[She] never wanted to live in L.A. full time. She didn’t have a choice because of the custody arrangement with Brad.”

Part of those preparations, the insider said, will be making some minor improvements to her historic home, which is known as the Cecil B. DeMille estate in honor of the famed director, who lived there for 40 years until his death in 1959.

Jolie took on that slice of Hollywood history in 2017, when she purchased the property for $24.5 million-later explaining that she had chosen the home because of its proximity to her former spouse, from whom she split in 2016.

“I wanted it to be close to their dad, who is only five minutes away,” she told British Vogue in 2021.

After her separation from Pitt, with whom she shares six children: Maddox, 24, Pax, 21, Zahara, 20, Shiloh, 19, Knox and Vivienne, the pair became embroiled in a bitter divorce battle that saw them sparring over custody arrangements, shared properties, and even involved allegations of abuse.

From left, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, Zahara Jolie-Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Vivienne Jolie-Pitt, Maddox Jolie-Pitt and Knox Jolie-Pitt attend an event in London in 2021.

That legal battle raged on for eight years before finally being settled in December 2024.

And while both parties have only shared a few scant details about their split, Jolie did hint at some of the legal details agreed upon by herself and Pitt when she spoke out about the nature of their custody agreement and the restraints that it has put on her life.

“I grew up in this town. I am here because I have to be here from a divorce, but as soon as they’re 18, I’ll be able to leave,” she told The Hollywood Reporter about her reasons for remaining in Los Angeles.

“When you have a big family, you want them to have privacy, peace, safety. I have a house now to raise my children, but sometimes this place can be … that humanity that I found across the world is not what I grew up with here. [After Los Angeles,] I’ll spend a lot of time in Cambodia. I’ll spend time visiting my family members wherever they may be in the world.”

For much of the time since her split from Pitt, Jolie has resided primarily in the historic 11,000-square-foot abode in Los Feliz, which was built back in 1913, and boasts six bedrooms and 10 bathrooms.

In addition to its many bedrooms and bathrooms, the Beaux Arts-style mansion, which was built in 1913, also offers an array of living spaces, including a “beautiful pool house” and a “studio house” that has its own entrance.

And while the home maintains its historic appearance, it underwent an extensive six-year renovation before Jolie purchased it-with the picture-perfect grounds and the swimming pool also given a meticulous overhaul.

“A newer classic old Hollywood style pool with arched fountains, surrounded by rolling lawns, specimen trees, rose gardens, and dramatic views from the Observatory to Ocean sunsets,” the original listing description said.

Should Jolie follow through with her plans to move abroad, she will join a long line of celebrities who have quit the U.S. in recent months-with many pointing to President Donald Trump’s reelection as the reason for their relocation.

Among those who have fled further afield are actress Rosie O’Donnell, who revealed in January that she had moved to Ireland along with her youngest child, Dakota “Clay” O’Donnell, 12, who is nonbinary.

At the time, O’Donnell said that she no longer felt “safe” living in the U.S. under Trump’s presidency-a declaration that saw him threatening to revoke her citizenship for good.

Meanwhile, Ellen DeGeneres recently confirmed for the first time that her decision to move to the U.K. with her wife, Portia de Rossi, was prompted by Trump’s victory in the 2024 election, telling British broadcaster Richard Bacon that they had originally only intended to reside in the country for a few months out of the year.

“We got here the day before the election and woke up to lots of texts from our friends with crying emojis, and I was like, ‘He got in,’” she explained during a July 20 appearance at the Everyman theater in Cheltenham, England. “And we’re like, ‘We’re staying here.’”
