Don’t miss your shot to be in the movie theater where it happens.

The filmed version of the original Broadway production of Hamilton is coming to cinemas. This theatrical release will celebrate the 10th anniversary of Lin-Manuel Miranda‘s Tony, Grammy, Emmy and Pulitzer Prize-winning musical. It arrives in theaters on Sept. 5.

This marks the first time Hamilton will be available to watch in theaters. An exclusive prologue called Reuniting the Revolution will appear along with the musical. It includes interviews with the original cast and its creators as they reflect on the impact Hamilton had on their lives.

Director Thomas Kail says the Hamilton team is thrilled the show will be in theaters.

“When we filmed Hamilton, we wanted to try to capture the feeling of being in the Richard Rodgers Theatre during that first year on Broadway,” Kail said in a press release. “We’re thrilled that audiences will now have the opportunity to experience it on the big screen.”

A premiere screening event will take place on Sept. 3 at the Delacorte Theater in New York City. A limited number of advance tickets will be available on Aug. 11. There will also be a free ticket lottery distribution available at The Public Theater on Sept. 3 and a free standby line in Central Park. All of the advance ticket donations will go toward The Public Theater, where Hamilton debuted ahead of its Broadway transfer.

Hamilton tells the story of the titular American founding father. It won 11 Tony Awards and is inspired by the book Alexander Hamilton by Ron Chernow. Original Broadway cast members Daveed Diggs, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Jonathan Groff, Christopher Jackson, Leslie Odom Jr. and Phillipa Soo star alongside Miranda in the filmed version, which was captured in June 2016.

Heidi Klum has returned to her Project Runway roots, hosting the newest season after previously departing the show eight years ago.

Klum joined Good Morning America on Wednesday wearing a winning two-piece skirt set designed by a current contestant and shared more details about season 21 of the reality TV series.

“As they say in fashion, one day you’re in, the next day you’re out. In my case I’m back in again,” she said.

“I started the show. I helped sell the show. I love the show. It’s my first TV baby,” she continued. “So after many, many years, I thought, ‘I’m gonna come back.'”

The host and judge also enlisted her friend, actress Sofía Vergara, to join the new season — with one caveat.

“She hates nothing more than being shorter than me. It’s like her thing. So when we both have heels on, and I’m a little taller, she doesn’t love it,” Klum said.

She said she made a “pinky promise” to Vergara that “I’m always going to be looking shorter wearing flats.”

Klum, who is also well known for her elaborate Halloween costumes that require months of preparation, prosthetics and design, revealed that this year she will be sporting something “very, very ugly” and “really gory.”

The new season of Project Runway kicked off on Freeform on July 31. New episodes air weekly Thursday at 10 p.m. ET, with next-day streaming on Disney+ and Hulu.

Disney is the parent company of Hulu, ABC News and Good Morning America.

Kelley Mack, an actress best known for her work on the horror series The Walking Dead, has died at age 33.

A representative for Mack confirmed her death to ABC News and said in a statement, “She will be so missed.”

In an online statement, Mack’s family said she died on Aug. 2 with her mother and aunt at her side following a battle with glioma, a type of tumor of the central nervous system.

“It is with indelible sadness that we are announcing the passing of our dear Kelley,” Mack’s family wrote in the statement, and also called her “a bright, fervent light.”

“Kelley has already come to many of her loved ones in the form of various butterflies. She will be missed by so many to depths that words cannot express,” the statement added.

In a January Instagram post, Mack revealed she had been diagnosed with diffuse midline glioma, a rare type of cancer.

As an actor, Mack portrayed Addy during the ninth season of The Walking Dead and Penelope Jacobs in the eighth season of Chicago Med, which will return for its 11th season this fall. She was also known for her role as Alice in the horror film Broadcast Signal Intrusion.

In addition to acting, Mack was also a producer, writer and voiceover artist. She provided the voice of Gwen Stacy for the hit film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.

Mack’s family said a “recognition and remembrance” of life for Mack will be held Aug. 16 in Glendale, Ohio, and that another celebration of life will be held in Los Angeles at a date yet to be determined.

The besties are back in Platonic season 2.

Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne return in the sophomore season of Apple TV+’s comedy series. The duo spoke to ABC Audio about what fans can expect from the new season and the chemistry they have together on screen.

“Chemistry’s so strange,” Byrne said. “People could not get along off set but can have great chemistry on screen, and then you can see married couples do a movie and it’s really flat.”

The duo previously played husband and wife in the 2014 comedy Neighbors and its 2016 sequel. In Platonic, they play strictly platonic, codependent best friends Sylvia and Will. Byrne says chemistry is “really ephemeral” and she was lucky to actually “really hit it off on screen and got along as well as friends off screen” with Rogen.

While Sylvia and Will’s friendship was rebuilt and strengthened throughout Platonic season 1, Rogen says the pair still “have a lot to learn” throughout season 2.

“When you get older, a lot of your life can become about presenting one reality while secretly living another one. That’s the biggest disturbance they cause in one another’s lives, is they see through each other’s fake realities in a way that might be a little too perceptive for each other’s own good,” Rogen said. “I do think they bring each other to better places ultimately, but I think they do it with a lot of friction.”

Rogen also thinks Sylvia and Will “are both in worse places than we were last season.”

“Which is great comedically,” Rogen said. “They both have a very long way to go as far as not damaging one another’s lives.”

Platonic season 2 premieres its first two episodes on Wednesday. New episodes arrive weekly through Oct. 1.

Taylor Kitsch says he won’t be part of the highly anticipated Friday Night Lights reboot — he has his sights set on something else.

At the red carpet premiere for The Terminal List: Dark Wolf on Monday night, Kitsch opened up to The Wrap about whether he would be involved in the upcoming reboot.

“I was asked to do it,” he said. “I’m not going back, no.”

Instead, he said he would be continuing his work with Howlers Ridge, a nonprofit retreat center in Bozeman, Montana, aimed at supporting veterans and those battling addiction.

“It’s for veterans and people on the sober side of addiction,” said Kitsch, who mentioned that the program is in its third year. “Addiction runs through my family, it’s affected my life on so many levels. And then, obviously, the veteran community, the SEAL community, and the veteran families have affected my life for the better.”

In The Terminal List: Dark Wolf, Kitsch stars as Ben Edwards, a CIA operative. The series follows Ben “throughout his journey from the Navy SEALS to the clandestine side of CIA Special Operations,” according to a press release, and stars Chris Pratt, Tom Hopper, Luke Hemsworth and more. The series is a prequel to the 2022 series The Terminal List, which starred Kitsch, Pratt, Constance Wu, Riley Keough and more.

The Terminal List: Dark Wolf is set to premiere on Prime Video on Aug. 27.

Kitsch previously portrayed Tim Riggins on Friday Night Lights for five seasons.

The show aired its first season in 2006 and centered around a high school football team in small-town Texas, led by Coach Eric Taylor, played by Kyle Chandler. In December 2024, Good Morning America confirmed that a new adaptation of Friday Night Lights was in development at Peacock.

Just below the horizon, but headed our way, is the rough beast John Lithgow, his hour come round at last. This is great company, and it’s a privilege to be among their number.”

King of the Hill is back with new episodes for the first time in 15 years. The adult animated sitcom first premiered in 1997 and follows the Hill family as they try to navigate a constantly changing world from their home of Arlon, Texas.

“Instead of just like being like, ‘Let’s do a reboot or a revival,’ I think they’re much more thoughtful than that,” says Pamela Adlon, who voices Bobby, the son of Hank and Peggy Hill.

Season 14 of King of the Hill picks up several years after we last saw the Hill family, with Hank and Peggy returning from a trip to Saudi Arabia and Bobby becoming a chef at a German-Japanese fusion restaurant. Adlon says the creative team was a mix of new writers and veterans from the show’s original run.

“So you’ve got all, like, the good vintage OG King of the Hill juice happening in the show, and then you’ve got the new, fresh perspective,” she tells ABC Audio.

Adlon says King of the Hill has always been a very grounded show, with this season referencing current events like the COVID-19 pandemic. Unlike other animated sitcoms, characters on King of the Hill age, which Adlon says informed her vocal performance.

“Instead of like, you know, pitching it down in the studio or doing something like that — it was something I that I did subtly and was able to give that kind of OG Bobby,” she says.

Adlon says despite the prominence of conservative characters on the show, the politics of King of the Hill are far more nuanced than simply pitting Republicans against Democrats.

“It’s a good mirror for where we are. … You don’t want people to tell you you’re right or wrong. You just want people to show you how funny both sides are,” says Adlon.

Season 14 of King of the Hill is now streaming on Hulu.

Disney is the parent company of ABC News and Hulu.

The official trailer for Regretting You has arrived.

Paramount Pictures released the trailer for the romantic drama film on Tuesday. Allison Williams and Mckenna Grace star in the movie directed by The Fault in Our Stars helmer Josh Boone.

The movie, which is based on the bestselling book by Colleen Hoover, finds mother Morgan Grant (Williams) and her daughter, Clara (Grace), figuring out how to go on after a devastating accident. The incident “reveals a shocking betrayal and forces them to confront family secrets, redefine love, and rediscover each other,” according to its official synopsis.

“There’s a lot I wish I had done differently,” Williams’ Morgan says to Grace’s Clara in the trailer. “But I’ll never spend one second regretting you.”

“You deserve to be happy. No regrets, right?” she says back.

This marks the second big-screen adaptation of one of Hoover’s novels after the 2024 film It Ends with Us.

Dave Franco, Mason Thames, Scott Eastwood and Willa Fitzgerald also star in the film.

Regretting You comes to movie theaters on Oct. 24.
