Hey, did you hear about Wonka? It only pulled in a buck at the box office this weekend, but guess what? Despite that, it still managed to rake in a whopping $39 million. Crazy, right? I mean, it cost $125 million to produce, but it earned a cool $112 million overseas, bringing its grand total to $151 million. Not too shabby!
Oh, and did you catch the news about Brad Pitt’s 60th birthday bash? Apparently, he kept it real low-key, celebrating with his girlfriend. Nice to see the big stars enjoying some downtime.
So, there’s this Jonathan Majors guy, and he got a bit of a mixed verdict. Found guilty of misdemeanor assault and harassment, but it’s just a violation. Interesting, right?
And speaking of breakups, Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny are no longer a thing. They were a hot item since February, but I guess things change.
You know how most families are unwrapping presents on Christmas? Well, not the Kelce brothers. Travis Kelce and his bro Jason Kelce will be hitting the field with their NFL teams. Talk about a different kind of holiday celebration!
Remember the host of “Jeopardy,” Mayim Bialik? Yeah, she got the boot after serving both interim and permanent roles. Sony confirmed her departure after a few months of radio silence and gave her a shoutout for her contributions.
And get this, the original animatronic head from “E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial” sold for a whopping $635,000 at auction. People really go all out for those pop culture treasures, like a “Lost in Space” robot model and “Harry Potter” prop wands. Crazy, right?
Lastly, kudos to NBC’s “Barbie” movie on Max for featuring American Sign Language (ASL). Leila Hanaumi is the ASL interpreter, and they’re getting praised for being inclusive and accessible. Nice move, NBC!
