Ahead of their NCIS spinoff, Michael Weatherly and Cote de Pablo reunite with an original franchise actor, Sasha Alexander. After more than two decades on the air, NCIS is showing no signs of slowing down. Aside from the controversial cancellation of NCIS: Hawai’i, the universe as a whole is still going strong, with a couple of spinoffs on the way. That includes a reunion project with Michael Weatherly and Cote de Pablo as they reprise their roles as Tony DiNozzo and Ziva David and NCIS: Tony & Zivaoffshoot, which will stream on Paramount+ instead of airing on CBS.

The photos were taken during Alexander’s recent appearance on the newly-launched NCIS rewatch podcast. Titled Off Duty: An NCIS Rewatch on Spotify, the new endeavor sees Weatherly and de Pablo talk to various people who were once or are still involved in the franchise.

Can Alexander’s Kate Todd Still Appear In The NCIS Universe?

Todd Was Killed By Ziva David’s Half-Brother

It has been almost two decades since Kate Todd was unexpectedly killed in the NCIS season 2 finale. The events of the CBS police procedural were kicked off by her arrival at the agency. She was expected to stay with the Major Case Response Team for a while, so it was truly shocking when she was brutally murdered. Her death was recently re-examined during NCIS‘ 1000th episode. Despite hopes that Alexander would return to film new scenes despite her character’s death, the show only used archival footage. That said, it doesn’t mean that a comeback is off the table.

NCIS has already set a precedent in terms of bringing her back after Kate’s death. On the heels of Ari’s brutal murder of her 19 years ago, Alexander returned for the first two episodes of season 3 as the team grappled with the unexpected loss of her. Instead of flashbacks, her scenes were projections of her. This was major proof of her drama-less exit from the police procedural, which hasn’t always been the case in terms of these long-running shows. Beyond that, Alexander can reprise Kate as a hallucination in case NCIS season 22 attempts to bring her back.

A surprise update about Pauley Perrette years after she left the procedural significantly increases the chances of Abby Sciuto’s return to NCIS.

Besides reprising Kate in the show, NCIS can also tap Alexander to be involved in other ways. For starters, she could helm one of the upcoming episodes of NCIS: Tony & Ziva. Alexander previously directed an episode of Weatherly’s Bull, and she clearly has a great relationship with de Pablo, so it shouldn’t be an issue to pull this off.

“It seems like Tommy Shelby wasn’t finished with me,” Oscar-winner Cillian Murphy says of his return to playing the Peaky Blinders gangster. Netflix has now confirmed the film, which is promised to be an “explosive chapter” in the family’s story.

Wednesday 5 June 2024 13:13, UK

A Peaky Blinders film has been announced – with Oscar-winner Cillian Murphy returning to star.

“It seems like Tommy Shelby wasn’t finished with me,” Murphy said in a statement as his return to playing the gangster was confirmed by Netflix.

The streaming site shared a photography of a bulky script, titled A Peaky Blinders Film, to reveal the news.

It follows on from the BBC show created by Steven Knight, which ran for six series from 2013 to 2022, and will be helmed by season one director Tom Harper.

Murphy said it was “very gratifying to be recollaborating” with Knight and Harper on the film, adding: “This is one for the fans.”

The Irish actor will also co-produce the film.

‘No holds barred’

Knight said he was “genuinely thrilled” to be making the movie and promised it will be “an explosive chapter” in the Peaky Blinders story.

“No holds barred,” he said. “Full-on Peaky Blinders at war.”

The original series followed the notorious Shelby family, a gang rising to prominence in the “lawless streets” of post-First World War Birmingham.

Production on the film is set to begin in Birmingham in September, Knight has confirmed, with the storyline taking the family into the Second World War.

Murphy’s performance as Shelby raised his profile further after appearances in films including The Dark Knight Batman franchise, Inception and 28 Days Later.

As well as his Oscar, he took home a Golden Globe, a BAFTA and a Screen Actors Guild award for his turn as physicist J Robert Oppenheimer in Sir Christopher Nolan’s biopic.

Reba McEntire got extremely emotional during a heartfelt moment on The Voice with two talented contestants.

The country singer was all choked up after watching Josh Sanders and Donny Van Slee perform Luke Combs‘ “When It Rains, It Pours” during the battle rounds on Monday, March 25. In particular, it was Josh’s deeply personal connection to the song that tugged on her heartstrings.

“‘When it rains, it pours,’ that lyric hits me kinda heavy,” Josh said during rehearsals. “I’m a dad of four girls. We had a son. He was born and passed away on my birthday. It’s such a fun song, and I don’t wanna take it there.”

The performance was impeccable and truly showcased each of their voices perfectly. The entire performance made Reba, 68, stop and take a second to collect her thoughts as tears welled in her eyes.

“Your runs, when you hit the high notes, everything was perfect,” she said after the performance to Josh. “Whatever you got from this song, it was just right.”

“I feel like I’ve known you forever,” she continued. “When we got to be in the rehearsal, I just felt like we bonded, and that was really, really special to me.”

In the end, Reba chose Josh as the winner of the battle, which was not a surprise. The battle was further proof that the competition is stiff on season 25 of The Voice. John Legend, Dan + Shay and Chance the Rapper are all coaching artists on their teams alongside Reba this season.

Just last month, the Reba actress shot down rumors that she was leaving The Voice after just one completed season on the show.

“Please do not click on any articles that say I am leaving The Voice. This is not true,” she wrote in a post on X in February 2024. “These are fake websites to lure people in with clickbait where they claim I have a company to sell weight loss gummy products. This is false. I do not sell or promote any type of gummy product.”

Reba joined the coaching panel in season 24 of The Voice, after Blake Shelton marked his exit from the franchise in season 23. As for what qualities she looks for in artists who join her team, the “Fancy” songstress said, “I go with what touches my heart and hopefully it will touch the hearts of the viewers at home.”

Hollywood star Gary Sinise is well known for the many ways in which he honors the U.S. military.

Levi Wright, the young son of rodeo star Spencer Wright, has died. The three-year-old passed away following a traumatic brain injury from a near-drowning incident on May 21.

The Incident

On May 21, Levi was hospitalized at a Salt Lake City hospital. He had accidentally driven a toy tractor into a river near the family’s home. Local law enforcement found Levi unconscious about a mile downstream. Although initially declared brain dead and not expected to survive, Levi began showing signs of improvement.

A Glimmer of Hope

“LEVI WOKE UP! I am shook, we don’t know much but the doctor said it was okay for me to get excited about that and I AM! My baby is so tough!” wrote his mother, Kallie Wright, on Facebook. Unfortunately, the following day, an MRI showed concerning results.

Kallie shared, “We’re shattered but it is just images that suggest a certain quality of life. Our real teller of all will be what Levi does over the course of a few days.”

A Family’s Prayers

As Levi continued his fight in the hospital, his family and friends asked for prayers. Despite their hopes, on June 2, Kallie shared devastating news. “After several sleepless nights, lots of research, multiple conversations with the world’s best neurologists & millions of prayers we are here in the face of our biggest fear,” she wrote.

Kallie explained that Levi had shown enough signs of life to give them time to come to terms with the situation. They had hoped he was defying the odds, but realized he was giving them time to find peace with letting him go. After countless tests and consultations, the Wright family took Levi off life support.

Heartbreaking News

On June 3, a family friend, Mindy Sue Clark, confirmed on Facebook that Levi had died. She expressed the pain of the past two weeks since the accident. “I cannot even begin to explain how hard the last two weeks have been. From the moment my phone rang the night of his accident, to last night receiving the message that he had to go. I don’t want to focus on the bad or sad, even though it feels like someone ripped my heart out and squeezed it right in front of me. I want to focus on the many miracles we all got to bear witness to in those 12 days.”

She praised Levi as “the most perfect three year old there ever was. So perfect we didn’t get to keep him. This baby boy moved mountains the last 12 days. He brought so many people together. In a world so dark, we got to see light at the hands of a child. He’s everything his mom and dad could’ve wanted him to be.”

In Memory of Levi Wright

Our prayers are with the Wright family during this extremely difficult time. Levi’s brief life touched many, bringing light and unity in a time of darkness.

In a striking move, Whoopi Goldberg, co-host of “The View,” has called for the Kansas City Chiefs to fire their kicker, Harrison Butker. This comes after Butker made controversial comments during a public appearance. Goldberg and others found his remarks inappropriate for a professional athlete.

The Controversial Speech

Harrison Butker recently gave a speech that many found controversial. He criticized political correctness and some progressive social movements. He also commented on gender roles and family structures. These comments sparked a fierce debate across media platforms.

Goldberg’s Strong Reaction

Whoopi Goldberg, known for her candid approach on “The View,” did not hold back. She argued that Butker’s views are not aligned with the values of a professional sports team. Goldberg said, “If the Chiefs are about integrity, inclusiveness, and respect, then keeping Butker on the team contradicts all of that. Ban him from the team right away.”

Celebrities and Sports Issues

Goldberg’s comments have reignited discussions about celebrities’ involvement in sports issues. Public figures like Goldberg have significant influence. They can amplify certain viewpoints and potentially sway public opinion. This raises questions about the fairness of subjecting athletes to career-ending scrutiny based on their personal beliefs.

Mixed Reactions

The reaction to Goldberg’s call has been mixed. Supporters praise her for standing against what they see as outdated and harmful ideologies. Critics argue that Goldberg’s demand infringes on Butker’s freedom of speech. They believe his personal views should not impact his career if they do not violate laws or league policies.

Kansas City Chiefs’ Dilemma

The Kansas City Chiefs are in a tough spot. They must consider the values they want to uphold and the diverse perspectives of their fan base. They also need to manage potential backlash from taking action against Butker. This decision is complicated by the attention and pressure from high-profile figures like Goldberg.

Legal and Ethical Considerations

This debate touches on legal and ethical issues. It questions the balance between an employer’s right to protect its image and an employee’s right to free expression. Sports teams must navigate the complex interplay between public expectations and legal boundaries regarding freedom of speech.

Broader Implications for the NFL

This incident could have broader implications for the NFL and other professional sports leagues. It sets a precedent for how teams might handle similar situations in the future. It highlights the control teams have over players’ public statements and the consequences of expressing controversial opinions.

Whoopi Goldberg’s demand for Harrison Butker’s dismissal highlights the tension between personal freedom and public accountability in professional sports. This debate will likely shape the policies of sports organizations for years to come. It emphasizes the powerful impact celebrities can have on professional sports and the importance of ongoing dialogue about values, representation, and responsibility in the public sphere.

George Cloney has long been considered one of the most successful and most handsome actors in Hollywood.

He has been a dream of many women all across the globe and no one seemed to be able to capture his heart.

Well, it was like that until he met gorgeous Amal Clooney, a Lebanese and British barrister whose clients include WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, former Prime Minister of Ukraine Yulia Tymoshenko, Egyptian-born Canadian journalist Mohamed Fahmy, and Iraqi activist Nadia Murad, among the rest.

Her beauty and brain made her a famous name and the Ticket to Paradise actor didn’t stay immune to that.

“Everything about my wife is sort of magical, as I think everybody has come to realize as they see her and hear her and hear what she stands for.” George Clooney told Entertainment Tonight in 2022. “There’s just not a downside to her.”

George and Amal dated for around his months before he knew she was the one and popped the question. “Literally, I dropped it on her, and she just kept saying, ‘Oh, my God,’ and ‘Wow!’ We just sat there, and finally I said, ‘Listen, I’m 52, and I’ve been on my knee now for about 28 minutes, so I have to get an answer out of this or I’m going to throw a hip out. I might not be able to stand back up!” he recalled of the moment he asked her to marry him.

The couple wed in September 2014 at Venice, Italy’s opulent Aman Canal Grande hotel. Among the guests, there were many famous names such as Bono, Matt Damon, and Bill Murray.

Amal never forgot her roots and in 2015, she launched the Amal Clooney scholarship with the aim to give back to women in Lebanon.

45-year-old Amal looks stunning. She never fails to stun everyone whenever she’s out in public, whether that is a red carpet event or another occasion, and yet, some people believe she’s “ugly” and a “gawky gargoyle,” and post nasty comments about her on the social media.

“I am completely baffled at the fact that when George Clooney finally decides to settle down he picks Amal Clooney, who looks like an ugly man,” one Twitter user wrote in January 2015.

“She’s pretty, but her legs are shapeless sticks and sticky,” someone wrote under an ELLE Magazine link about Amal. “So terribly thin too too thin boney old thing,” another person added.

Other times, the media tried to lessen her accomplishments by speaking of her not as a successful human-right’s lawyer, but as an actor’s wife.

“Amal Clooney, actor’s wife, representing Al-Jazeera journalist accused in Egypt of ties to extremists,” the Associated Press wrote at the time Amal was representing Egyptian-Canadian journalist Mohamed Fahmy. After many reacted to this heading, they changed it to “Human rights lawyer Amal Clooney criticizes prison terms handed down to three Al-Jazeera English journalists.”

“In terms of an increased public profile, I think all I can do is try to turn the spotlight to what is important. That can benefit some clients. If I am at a work function and reporting of it focuses on irrelevant issues, there’s not much I can do about that. Since I can’t control it, my approach is just not to dwell on it and just get on with my work and my life and hope that attitudes will catch up,” Amal said in 2022 when she was recognized by Time in a cover feature titled Women of the Year, 12 Leaders Working Toward a More Equal World.

Her husband and the father of her children, George Clooney, always praises his wife and is very proud of her accomplishments.

“She’s stunning and has a great sense of style — there’s no stylist or anything, she just comes out like that and she shows up and she looks stunning. And she does it while she’s got 11 cases going — literally. So she’s an amazing woman.”

“Every single day of my life, I just feel lucky,” Clooney told The Hollywood Reporter in a 2017 interview. “Lucky in my career. Lucky enough to have found the perfect partner. Sometimes in life it doesn’t happen on your schedule, but you find the person that you were always supposed to be with. That’s how I feel, and I know that’s how Amal feels.”

We believe that George and Amal Clooney make an incredibly beautiful couple.
