Nick Jonas has lined up his next movie project.
The youngest Jonas Brother is set to star in a horror holiday flick called White Elephant, alongside Kathryn Newton.
Deadline reports that the film is about eight friends whose “annual festive holiday gift exchange spirals into a cutthroat game of Christmas carnage.” It will be directed by Clown in a Cornfield’s Eli Craig.
“Let’s get it! So excited about this one.” Nick wrote on his Instagram Story.
White Elephant is the latest in a string of recent acting gigs for Nick. He’ll be seen next in Power Ballad opposite Paul Rudd, out in theaters June 5. He’ll also star in the latest Jumanji installment with Dwayne Johnson, Jack Black, and Kevin Hart, due out later this year.

Catherine O’Hara’s cause of death has been revealed.
The actress died of a pulmonary embolism, according to her death certificate, released Monday by the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s Office.
Rectal cancer is listed on the certificate as the underlying cause of death.
A pulmonary embolism is a sudden blockage in a lung artery that occurs as a result of a blood clot traveling to the lungs, according to the U.S. National Library of Medicine.
The 71-year-old actress had not publicly revealed any health struggles.
O’Hara’s manager first confirmed news of her death on Friday, Jan. 30.
The Los Angeles Fire Department told ABC News it received a call for medical aid earlier that day at 4:48 a.m. at an address connected to O’Hara. She was transported to a hospital in serious condition at that time, according to the LAFD.
O’Hara’s vast and prolific acting career included more than 100 roles across TV and film. She recently scored accolades for her role in the comedy series Schitt’s Creek as Moira Rose, a grandiose actress who is blissfully detached from reality. At the time of her death, she was starring in the award-winning Apple series The Studio.
Her portrayal of Moira in Schitt’s Creek — which also starred Eugene Levy, Dan Levy and Annie Murphy — earned her a Primetime Emmy Award in 2020, as well as a Golden Globe in 2021.
As news of O’Hara’s death spread, tributes for the late actress poured in from across the world of entertainment.
Dan Levy paid tribute to O’Hara in an Instagram post, writing, “What a gift to have gotten to dance in the warm glow of Catherine O’Hara’s brilliance for all those years.”
“Having spent over fifty years collaborating with my Dad, Catherine was extended family before she ever played my family,” he continued. “It’s hard to imagine a world without her in it. I will cherish every funny memory I was fortunate enough to make with her.”
The cast and crew of The Studio, the Apple TV series on which O’Hara starred opposite Seth Rogen, Ike Barinholtz, Chase Sui Wonders, Kathryn Hahn and more, also paid tribute to the acclaimed actress in the wake of her death. A rep for Rogen shared a statement on the show’s behalf, which read, “We are at a loss for words at the passing of our friend Catherine O’Hara.”
“She was a hero to all of us, and we pinched ourselves every day that we got to work with her on The Studio,” the statement continued. “She was somehow classy, warm, and hilarious all at the same time. We’re unbelievably saddened she is gone and send our deepest sympathy to [her husband] Bo and all her family.”
O’Hara is survived by her husband, Bo Welch, and sons, Matthew Welch and Luke Welch.

Buffalo Bills star Josh Allen and his Oscar-nominated wife, Hailee Steinfeld, are new parents.
The couple announced Thursday that they had welcomed their first child, a daughter.
“Our baby girl has arrived!!” they wrote in a joint message shared in Steinfeld’s Beau Society newsletter. “We’re feeling incredibly grateful and blessed and savouring these early moments. Thank you so much for the love and well wishes.”
The message featured an illustration of a stork carrying a baby, whose blanket bore the Beau Society logo.
The quarterback and Sinners star, both 29, did not share further details about their daughter’s birth or her name.
Allen and Steinfeld wed last May in Santa Barbara, California, after announcing their engagement in November 2024.
The couple announced on social media in December that they were expecting their first child.
In an interview with Bustle published last November, Steinfeld opened up about the couple’s relationship and wanting kids with Allen, saying, “I literally thank God every day that I found my person, and it’s the greatest thing in the world.”
“Life makes sense,” Steinfeld added. “Everything makes sense. I feel like I am stepping into the version that I’ve always dreamed of being, having so much to do with being with him.”

Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos executive produce a new six-part docuseries called Squatters: Get the F*** Out of My House.
The docuseries, which follows ordinary people blindsided by manipulators who know exactly how to weaponize tenant protections, is now available to watch on Hulu. Ripa and Consuelos spoke to ABC Audio about the unbelievable true stories included in the series.
“The title didn’t come out of nowhere. This is what these very frustrated homeowners keep saying because they are so desperate,” Ripa said.
Consuelos said that the squatters featured in the show “are so good at finding the loopholes in the law … to frustrate the owners of the homes.”
“We’ve sold homes,” Consuelos said. “You just assume you’re selling your home, and you go check on it, and you’re not gonna find a family that has moved into your house.”
Not only that, but you don’t assume you’ll find multiple families there and discover that “they’re leasing the house from a man who claims that’s his house,” Consuelos continued.
While the married couple have never encountered squatters on any of their properties, Ripa says she has a friend who dealt with squatters.
“He owns properties in California and he said that this is his life,” Ripa said. “There’s so many times that he has leased a property to a tenant who’s never paid rent and then he cannot evict them and so it is a part of his life.”
Through those experiences, Ripa said her friend has “had to become better than the squatters.”
“It is very common. I keep saying we could do episodes not just in each state, we could episodes in every county of every state or in every borough,” Ripa said. “It’s not a unique thing.”
