Let’s hear it for women in STEM.
The Love Hypothesis, based on Ali Hazelwood’s bestselling romance novel, officially has a release date. The film comes to Prime Video on Sept. 23.
Star Lili Reinhart helped announce the news in a video posted to social media Thursday. We see a barista deliver a whipped cream-topped drink with 9.23 written on it to Reinhart’s character, Olive.
“Oh that’s me,” Reinhart says as she grabs the drink and takes a sip. “Could I actually get sprinkles on this?”
“Just a little something brewing,” Prime Video captioned the video. “The Love Hypothesis arrives September 23.”
The story follows a fake dating scheme between Olive Smith, a PhD candidate, and a surly biology professor, Adam Carlsen, played by Tom Bateman. Matters get complicated when their fake dating starts to give way to real feelings.
Cosmopolitan scored an exclusive first look at the film, including a photo of Olive and Adam’s memorable first kiss.
Ciara Miller, Amanda Batula and West Wilson from ‘Summer House.’ (Bravo)
Andy Cohen is addressing the Summer House fandom after audio from the season 10 reunion leaked online.
The Bravo producer took to Threads on Friday to respond to the fact that audio from the season 10 reunion taping, which occurred on Thursday, has leaked and spread widely online. Specifically, the audio features Summer House cast members West Wilson, Ciara Miller and Amanda Batula in a heated exchange.
“People laid their souls out emotionally for ten hours yesterday and it’s disgusting and illegal for someone to leak or distribute this,” Cohen wrote. “It’s disrespectful to the work and tears the cast put in yesterday. Let the season play out. You will see it all in due time.”
Bravo posted a statement to its Instagram saying the network has launched a full investigation into how exactly the audio was leaked.
“The Summer House Reunion audio leak represents a serious breach of trust and a clear lack of respect for the cast, crew and the integrity of the production process,” the statement reads. “We take this matter very seriously and have launched a full investigation and we will take appropriate action based on our findings.”
The currently airing 10th season of Summer House has captured the zeitgeist due to a scandal that has been given the colloquial name “Scamanda.”
After months of rumors, Batula and Wilson confirmed they are in a relationship in posts made to Instagram on March 31. Batula is married to Summer House cast member Kyle Cooke, although they are divorcing. Wilson is Miller’s ex-boyfriend, and Batula was considered one of Miller’s close friends.
The Summer House season 10 reunion will air May 26 on Bravo and stream the next day on Peacock.
It was a red, white, blue and yellow weekend at the box office as Minions & Monsters took the number one spot over the July Fourth holiday.
The latest film in the animated franchise grabbed $61.4 million since opening on July 1, with $36.4 million of that coming in July 3 to 5. It was enough to put the film at #1 but also marked the lowest debut of the franchise. The movie – which places the little yellow creatures in 1920s Old Hollywood – features the voices of Pierre Coffin, Jesse Eisenberg, Zoey Deutch, Jeff Bridges and Allison Janney.
The weekend’s other new release, Young Washington, came in at #3 with $20.8 million, behind Toy Story 5 at #2. A fitting release for America’s 250th anniversary, the film follows George Washington before he became the first president of the United States.
Last week’s #1 film, Supergirl, saw a 74.1% drop. It fell to #4 with $9.6 million.
1. Minions & Monsters — $36.4 million 2. Toy Story 5 — $31 million 3. Young Washington — $20.8 million 4. Supergirl — $9.6 million 5. Disclosure Day — $6 million 6. Obsession — $5.3 million 7.

A new study has found that talking animals and men named Chris are more likely to star on the big screen than women over 60.
The study was conducted by the Centre for Aging Better through research from the Age Without Limits campaign. It revealed that the 100 highest-grossing films in the U.K. from the years 2023 through 2025 are four times more likely to have a talking animal as the lead character than an actress older than 60.
Additionally, six of the 100 movies starred an actor named Chris, while only five starred a woman older than 60.
In response to the study, actress Emma Thompson said, “Women are half the population and we get older. So where are the stories about us? The older we get, the more interesting we are. I want to see more films centre ageing women, we are compelling, relatable, and overdue for centre stage. Older women don’t need permission to exist on screen. They already exist in the world, cinema just needs to catch up.”
The five actresses older than 60 to lead a film in the past three years are Jennifer Saunders in Allelujah, Nia Vardalos in My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3, Diane Keaton in Book Club: The Next Chapter, Demi Moore in The Substance and Jamie Lee Curtis in Freakier Friday.
Meanwhile, the Chrises who make up the films led by men named Chris are Chris Pratt in The Super Mario Bros Movie, Pratt in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, Pratt in The Garfield Movie, Chris Pine in Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, Chris Hemsworth in Transformers One and Christian Friedel in The Zone of Interest.
Going further, The Garfield Movie is both a movie starring a guy named Chris and a movie starring a talking animal.
