This is the first film for Murphy’s production company, “Big Things” and is executive produced by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. “Small Things Like These” releases in theaters in the US on Friday and is already out in cinemas in the UK.

CNN —Jennifer Lopez is getting real about her life. Glaser and Lopez began their chat discussing Lopez playing Judy Robles in the film “Unstoppable.” Robles is the mother of athlete Anthony Robles, who was born with one leg and went on to become an accomplished wrestler.

Working on the movie as well as her “This Is Me…Now” album, short film and accompanying documentary had Lopez feeling like “…whoa, I got here.”“I’m good,” she said. “Now I’m excited, when you say you’re just going to be on your own,” Lopez said.

And now, the show about a group of Mormon influencers has yet another controversy — this one involving Ben Affleck. Well, Ben Affleck probably shouldn't be involved at all (more on that later). William Preston Affleck was born in 1801 in Scotland and moved to England sometime before 1825, eventually settling in Preston. It's impossible to say definitively that Zac Affleck and Ben Affleck are not very distant cousins. What the public records show, however, is that Zac Affleck and Ben Affleck are not second cousins, or third cousins, or even fourth cousins.

Donald Trump calls for mass deportations during a visit to the southern border. Harris spoke about her upbringing in San Francisco and her “unlikely journey” to becoming a prosecutor, senator and vice president. Anti-Trump sentiment was also a unifying theme this week, with both progressive and conservative speakers warning of the consequences if former President Donald Trump wins in November. Harris hammered the point in her speech, telling the crowd: "In many ways Donald Trump is an unserious man, but the consequences of putting Donald Trump back in the White House are extremely serious." Trump made the comments in an interview with NBC News during a visit yesterday to the U.S-Mexico border in Arizona.

Jennifer Lopez has been hailed as a trailblazer: a Latina from the Bronx who transcended her humble origins to become a global superstar. J. Lo’s romantic life has been as closely followed as her artistic life. She and Ben Affleck got engaged in 2002 and later broke up, but they reunited in 2021. The movie has been widely panned as nonsensical, corny, belabored and just plain weird, while the documentary is so unflattering it’s hard to believe she greenlighted it. The tour Ms. Lopez announced shortly after the album’s release has since been canceled.

While he was crashing on Damon's couch, Hollywood began showing interest in the script they had written together.
