It’s nearly inevitable that after any awards show, people will notice some celebrity names were omitted from the in memoriam segment, and Sunday night’s Emmys were no exception.
The names of Shelley Duvall, Chita Rivera, Tyler Christopher and Johnny Wactor didn’t appear during Jelly Roll‘s heartfelt song tribute to the stars who had recently passed.
Former General Hospital star Christopher passed away at age 50 on Oct. 31, 2023; Chita Rivera died at 91 on Jan. 30. Wactor, another veteran of General Hospital, was fatally shot in Los Angeles during a robbery on May 25. He was 37. Duvall died at 75 years old on July 11.
The upcoming Santa Fe International Film Festival has announced it will be honoring Bryan Cranston with its Lifetime Achievement Award.
Not coincidentally, his drama Breaking Bad was set in Santa Fe, New Mexico — a fact mentioned by SFiFF Executive Director Liesette Bailey in the announcement.
“Bryan Cranston’s work has inspired generations of actors and captivated audiences worldwide, cementing his place as one of the most respected and accomplished figures in the industry,” she said.
“We are truly honored to present him with the Santa Fe International Film Festival Lifetime Achievement Award, not only in recognition of his exceptional body of work, but also for the deep connection he shares with the people of New Mexico and the lasting impact he has made on our community with his role in the iconic series ‘Breaking Bad.'”
Cranston will be honored on Oct. 19; the event takes place Oct. 16 through Oct. 20.
Fans of the Emmy-winning HBO drama Euphoria are excited to know the show gets back into production in January — and so is co-star Sydney Sweeney.
“I’m very excited to jump back into Cassie,” she tells People. “She is definitely one of the most special characters for me and I love my Euphoria family, so I look forward to it.”
The Anyone But You star and producer says she doesn’t know what to expect from season 3, but hopes her character takes a dark turn. “I love crazy Cassie, so the crazier, the better for me,” she expresses.
As reported, the rest of the show’s cast, including Zendaya, Colman Domingo, Jacob Elordi, Hunter Schafer, Alexa Demie and Maude Apatow, are returning for the new season.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt‘s daughter has officially been granted a name change.
On Monday, the former couple’s 18-year-old daughter dropped Pitt’s surname and changed her name to Shiloh Nouvel Jolie. Until the switch, her name was Shiloh Jolie-Pitt.
Shiloh, who turned 18 on May 27, filed paperwork to legally remove “Pitt” from her name on May 30, according to court documents.
The reasons behind her decision to change her name remain undisclosed.
ABC News has reached out to Pitt’s representatives for comment.
In July, Shiloh issued a legal notice in the Los Angeles Times for several weeks stating that she proposed a name change from Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt to Shiloh Nouvel Jolie.
The legal notice was to comply with California law, which requires those petitioning to change their last name to show cause in a newspaper at least four weeks in a row before the court date to avoid a delay in the process.
Shiloh’s name change comes eight years after Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from Pitt in 2016. They were reportedly declared legally single in 2019 by a judge, but their divorce has yet to be finalized. They are also parents to Maddox, 22, Pax, 20, Zahara, 19, and 16-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
Over the years, the actors have been embroiled in legal battles over custody of their children and disagreements related to their shared business interests and properties, including a French winery.
