The Spill

Olivia Rodrigo pulled off the girl-power festival of the year, and the surprise guest list alone had us spiralling. We're unpacking the moment three music legends walked out on stage and the jaw-dropping donation that doubled overnight.

Then, Andrew Garfield's prestige new film is drowning in Robin Hood allegations, and honestly, nobody can tell us if he's playing the man in green or just some guy. We're deep diving the marketing meltdown that has two studios quietly deleting posters and the internet fully confused.

Finally, Tom Cruise is bringing back one of his most iconic films with a very pregnant new co-star, and the announcement video is peak Tom. But there's a Nicole Kidman connection lurking underneath, plus one furious former co-star making it messy.

Practical Magic 2 is almost here, Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock have reunited on the red carpet... and it's officially witchy season. Naturally, we're counting down the witchy movies that shaped us, from midnight-margarita comfort watches to the genuinely cursed.

There's one 1990 classic that traumatised Laura so badly she turned down an Anne Hathaway interview rather than go near it, and she's begging you not to let your kids watch it. We're also spiralling over the '90s cult favourite that turned an entire generation of tweens into candle-lighting, spell-casting witches… and had real witchcraft on set, storms and all.

Grab your candles (carefully), pour a margarita, and settle in. Just remember: nothing in the witchy world is ever free.

This week on the big screen, there's Ridley Scott's new post-apocalyptic epic starring Jacob Elordi, Margaret Qualley, Josh Brolin and Guy Pearce. Reviews are properly split on this one, but Josh Brolin steals it with one of the best action sequences in ages.

Meanwhile, a new six-part drama has just landed on Paramount+, starring Hugo Weaving, Heather Mitchell and Georgie Parker. Kicking off with one of the best meet-cutes we've seen in ages. It's a genuine love letter to the harbour city, packed with heart and Aussie acting royalty.

And finally, a sexy new book-to-film adaptation just landed on Prime Video, starring Eva Longoria and set against a gorgeous Spanish coastline. A summer trip turns into an unexpected romance while family secrets simmer in the background. It's pure sun-soaked escapism.

North West is Dazed's new cover star, and the internet has a LOT to say. At 13, Kim Kardashian's eldest is being raked over the coals for her styling, her adults-only itinerary and a music tour that quietly collapsed, and we're unpacking why this cover has reignited the child-star debate all over again.

And we're mourning the death of the original idea. Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey are reuniting for a How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days sequel, and while we love them, we're asking the bigger question: is Hollywood ever going to greenlight anything new again?

Plus, we pay tribute to the late, great Tim Curry — the shape-shifting genius behind some of our most formative (and most terrifying) childhood characters, and the films worth revisiting to remember him.
