Josh Grisetti, known for his work in musical theater and for his role as Ralph Emerson on the fifth season of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, died by suicide at 44 on Friday. Grisetti’s castmate Rob McClure, who starred alongside him in Something Rotten! on Broadway, announced the tragic news in an Instagram post on Sunday. “It is with a shattered heart that I share that the brilliant Josh Grisetti took his own life on Friday,” McClure wrote. “My heart is with his wife and family as they try to deal with the reality of this.” The actor said Grisetti’s loss was “cataclysmic” and that information regarding his memorial would “come in time.” Grisetti appeared in eight episodes in the final season of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and also starred alongside Donal Logue and Sofía Vergara in the short-lived ABC sitcom The Knights of Prosperity. On Broadway, the actor performed in shows including It Shoulda Been You, Broadway Bound, and Camelot in concert, as well as off-Broadway productions such as Rent and Enter Laughing.

A dog has been rescued from Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in the United Kingdom, after becoming ill from eating what is suspected to be discarded cannabis, the BBC reported. Tokyo, a black Labrador, was climbing the 4,413-foot mountain with dog trainer Christina Bluhme when he suddenly collapsed halfway along the trail. A mountain rescue team carried Tokyo down on a stretcher and took him to a local vet, where staff said they believed he had ingested cannabis left on the path. Tokyo reportedly drifted in and out of consciousness during the climb and remained unconscious for much of the rescue on the way down the mountain. Marijuana is one of the most commonly reported toxins in pets, ranking among the top 10 exposures reported annually by the Pet Poison Helpline. While even small amounts can trigger dangerous reactions, severe marijuana toxicosis can result in coma. “I genuinely thought I was going to lose her,” Bluhme said of Tokyo, adding that she would not have been able to get the Labrador down the mountain alone. She thanked the Lochaber Mountain Rescue Team, saying: “Their kindness, professionalism and calm support meant everything during one of the most frightening days I’ve ever experienced.”

Wai Ching Ho, who played Madame Gao in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, has died at 82. Ho’s Daredevil costar Peter Shinkoda paid tribute to the Hong Kong-born actress on Instagram. “Just lost someone very special to me. She was one of the coolest. Thinking aloud,” Shinkoda wrote on Saturday, before adding in another post: “I won’t ever forget you. I learned every minute from you when we were together on and off set. I know wisdom—I’d hang on your every word. We will meet again, my friend. You were beautiful.” Actor Perry Yung said in his tribute to Ho that she had “passed away peacefully after a stroke two days ago.” He added, “Wai Ching was a kind, compassionate human being whose work as an artist lifted every production to a higher standard, and we are better for it. Rest in power dear friend.” Ho was best known for playing the Marvel villain in Daredevil, Iron Fist, and The Defenders. She also appeared in Premium Rush, Hustlers, Fresh Off the Boat, and Awkwafina Is Nora from Queens, and she voiced Grandma Wu in Pixar’s 2022 animated film Turning Red, according to People.

Moana is set to become one of Disney’s worst-performing live-action remakes after debuting with a disappointing $43 million at the domestic box office. With a $250 million production budget, the film is expected to generate significant losses for Disney, which had projected at least a $60 million domestic debut and $140 million globally. It’s following a similar path to 2025’s disastrous Snow White remake, which opened with $42 million and was widely considered a box office bomb. Generally, live-action remakes perform well. Over the past decade, hits like Lilo & Stitch, The Lion King, Aladdin, and Beauty and the Beast have each grossed more than $1 billion worldwide. However, analysts believe the Moana live-action adaptation was produced too soon, failing to generate the nostalgia or excitement that fueled those earlier titles. The original film was released just a decade ago, and the 2024 animated sequel had already satisfied much of the fanbase. Second place this week went to Minions & Monsters, which earned $20.5 million domestically in its second week, bringing its global total to $280 million since its debut last week. The film is on track to turn a profit given its $85 million production budget. Not all the news was bad for Disney: Toy Story 5, now in its fourth week, earned $18.5 million—enough to make it the third highest-grossing movie in the U.S. and keep the film on track to surpass $1 billion worldwide, which would make it the franchise’s highest-grossing entry.

The biopic that distilled the controversial life of the King of Pop into its most sanitized highlights just set a major box-office record. Michael, which drew scrutiny for its omission of Michael Jackson’s child sexual abuse allegations in telling the story of the artist’s life, just became the first biopic in cinema history to hit the $1 billion mark. The two-hour-and-seven-minute film earned $371.8 million domestically and $629.8 million at the global box office. The movie stars Jackson’s nephew, Jaafar Jackson, as his late uncle, from his days in the Jackson 5 through his successful solo career. However, the film, which was approved by Jackson’s estate, conveniently neglects to include events post-1988, when the singer was accused of child sexual abuse and kidnapping. “Michael is like if you made a cheery biopic of Bill Cosby that ended with his successful run on The Cosby Show, all while avoiding any mention of his notorious private proclivities," wrote Daily Beast entertainment critic Nick Schager in April in his review of the film.

Authorities have arrested a 28-year-old British man in connection with the killing of politician Ann Widdecombe. The 78-year-old former member of Parliament was found dead at her home in rural ​southwest England on Thursday, after suffering serious injuries. The male suspect was arrested in Rotherham, northern ⁠England, late on Saturday. “At this point, there is ​still no information to suggest that this is a terrorism-related incident, and at this point, we are not looking for anyone else in connection with ​this murder,” said Devon and Cornwall Police Assistant Chief Constable Matt Longman. “Detectives remain open-minded about the potential motive. At this stage, there is ‌nothing ⁠to suggest that it was politically motivated.” Widdecombe served as Conservative Member of Parliament for Maidstone from 1987 to 2010. Two other serving members of Parliament have been murdered in the last decade, Reuters reports. Labour MP Jo Cox was shot and stabbed in 2016 during the Brexit campaign by a far-right extremist, and Conservative MP David Amess was fatally stabbed in 2021 by an attacker linked to the militant group Islamic State.

Britney Spears defended her viral car moment on Sunday, telling followers on Instagram she was “arching to the lords” with a photo of herself lying on top of the roof of her car in traffic. “What people see is two seconds of insanity of me arching me to the lords !!!!!” she wrote in the caption. “yet the days and hours of my reality !!!!!! Nothing is what it seems.” Pictures of the 44-year-old “Toxic” singer from Thursday circulated showing her throwing her head back and stretching her arms across the roof of a vehicle as cars continued moving around her. A source told The Daily Mail that Spears popped through the sunroof “for a quick moment” to check out the Los Angeles traffic while the cars were at a standstill. “She is having a fun summer and is happy, she is in a good place,” the source said. Spears has faced increased scrutiny following her March DUI arrest in California. She was also seen driving erratically after a night out with a friend a few months prior. In April, the singer voluntarily checked herself into rehab, and then left in less than a month.

Don Iwerks, a Disney icon who helped create some of the company’s most influential camera technology, has died at the age of 96. Iwerks, who was the son of Mickey Mouse co-creator Ub Iwerks, died last Thursday while “surrounded by the love of family and friends,” according to an obituary shared by his family, as reported by Deadline. He was weeks away from his 97th birthday on July 24. Iwerks, the father of documentarian Leslie Iwerks, joined Disney in 1950. He worked as a camera technician on 1954’s 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, then went on to lead the machine shop department, camera service department, and technical engineering and manufacturing division. Some of his camera innovations included the first 360-degree camera and merging live-action shots into animated backgrounds, bringing his technical skills to movies such as Mary Poppins. He became a Disney Legend in 2009, honored as “having made a significant impact on the Disney legacy.” A statement on Disney’s Instagram said, “The achievements of Don Iwerks and his family have shaped Disney’s creative ethos and will forever be part of the company’s history.”

Whether you’re acne-prone, have sensitive skin, or are always looking to amp up hydration, there’s a reason EltaMD’s SPF lineup is the number one dermatologist-recommended professional sunscreen brand. Each of its non-comedogenic, whitecast-proof mineral sunscreens is formulated not only to shield your skin from UV damage and environmental aggressors, but also to improve it with regular use. EltaMD’s non-comedogenic formulas combine broad-spectrum protection with complexion-supporting ingredients that help your skin look and feel better with consistent use. My current favorite, EltaMD’s UV Daily Hydration+ SPF 50, is a true triple threat, combining the benefits of a moisturizer, hyaluronic acid serum, and daily sunscreen in one lightweight formula.

Unlike many mineral sunscreens that leave dry patches and crepey skin begging for an extra layer of moisturizer, this silky formula is infused with hyaluronic acid to help lock in hydration for up to 24 hours while visibly plumping fine lines, softening the look of wrinkles, and smoothing dry patches—all without feeling heavy, greasy, or leaving behind that dreaded sunscreen film.

The mineral-based formula uses invisible zinc oxide technology, so it blends seamlessly into the skin without the ghostly cast commonly associated with traditional mineral SPFs. It’s also available in both clear and tinted versions, making it easy to find a finish that works with your complexion and routine.

Of course, the real selling point is the skincare-meets-sun-care benefits. The Daily Hydration+ SPF 50 is clinically shown to improve visible dryness by 75 percent, the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by 20 percent, and skin plumpness by 19 percent. In other words, it’s not just a sunscreen you tolerate because you know you’re supposed to wear SPF every day—it’s a formula you’ll actually look forward to applying.

A creepy coincidence hit Creep I.E. Aftermath when Tori Spelling and Hayden Panettiere canceled their appearances just hours apart. An organizer for the weekend event in Ontario, California, attributed the cancellations to “emergencies” without providing further details. Panettiere is known for her role as Kirby Reed in the Scream movie franchise, and also stars in the interactive horror game Until Dawn. Spelling has appeared in several horror films, including 1997’s Scream 2, the 1999 Halloween-themed flick Trick, and Scary Movie 2. Other hiccups in the horror fest involved schedule changes by scream queen Christina Ricci, who rose to fame with the role of Wednesday in The Addams Family, John Carroll Lynch (American Horror Story’s killer clown Twisty) and Carel Struycken (The Addams Family‘s Lurch). The weekend horror extravaganza promises “200,000+ square feet of spooky shenanigans,” along with celeb meetups, “killer contests” and hauntings so participants can “get their creep on.”

At least 15 tourists have died after a boat carrying 36 people capsized off the coast of a Vietnamese island on Saturday. Twenty-one passengers survived the disaster, with two taken to medical facilities in critical condition, according to local outlet VnExpress, as cited by Reuters. The boat was traveling from Hon May Rut Island to An Thoi Port when it capsized near Phu Quoc, Vietnam’s largest island and one of the country’s most popular tourist destinations, at around 1 p.m. local time. According to the outlets, rough seas and large waves were reported in the area at the time of the incident. Emergency services rushed to the scene, bringing victims ashore and providing medical assistance to the survivors. The 15 tourists who were reported dead were Indian nationals. In a statement, the Indian embassy in Vietnam described the incident as “tragic,” adding: “Exact details of the incident are being ascertained as search and rescue operations by local authorities are ongoing.” An investigation into the cause of the tragedy is underway.
