No one loves anything as much as Apple loves science fiction. But who's complaining?

The streaming service’s latest addition to its sci-fi heavy library is Murderbot, a 10-episode series adapted from All Systems Red, the first book in Martha Wells’ award-winning Murderbot Diaries series of novels. The show — the first two episodes of which are now streaming on Apple TV+ — hails from Oscar nominees Chris and Paul Weitz and stars Emmy winner Alexander Skarsgård as a self-aware cyborg. Having dubbed itself Murderbot, its purpose is to protect a group of scientists led by the empathetic Mensah (Olivier Award winner Noma Dumezweni) as they explore the surface of an uninhabited planet. If you’d ask Murderbot, however, its mission...

More than a decade ago, Jennifer’s Body stormed into theaters only to get buried under a pile of harsh reviews and low audience scores. At the time, folks wrote it off as a messy horror-comedy that just couldn’t find its footing.

But over time, something surprising happened. Slowly but surely, the film found its people. Back then, society, as a collective, totally missed the point and failed the movie, kind of like a clueless guy who can’t see how pretty the girl is until she takes off her glasses.

It never belonged to the “it is so bad that it’s good” category, it always was good. Now, almost 15 years have passed, and the conversation around Jennifer’s Body still hasn’t cooled down. Here is how a flop turned into a cult classic!

Overcompensating made its premiere on Prime Video on May 15, and it's easily one of the downright funniest and overall best new shows of the year. The raunchy comedy series takes place at the fictional Yates University, where closeted freshman Benny (Benito Skinner) overcompensates his way into denying his truth and remaining in the closet. Obviously, that doesn't work.

The series features an excellent ensemble cast surrounding Skinner in the leading role, including Mary Beth Barone as Benny's sister Grace, Wally Baram as his love interest-turned-best friend Carmen, Adam Dimarco as Grace's frat bro boyfriend Peter, Holmes as Carmen's wild roommate Hailee, and Rish Shah as Benny's crush Miles. Overcompensating also welcomes guest stars like Connie Britton, Kyle MacLachlan, James Van Der Beek, Charli Xcx, and Megan Fox (as Benny's imaginary poster-girl confidante).

During the show's premiere event, Variety caught up with star, co-creator, writer, and executive producer Benito Skinner and...

I sat down to watch Subservience with a blend of curiosity and tempered expectations. The film, starring Megan Fox as an advanced AI companion who evolves beyond her programming, promised a fusion of sleek sci-fi aesthetics and psychological thrills. While it delivers on the former in spurts, its grasp on narrative and character development feels disappointingly shallow.

Set in a near-future world where humanoid AIs are marketed as domestic helpers, Subservience follows the story of a financially struggling single father (played convincingly by Michele Morrone) who purchases a female AI named Faye (Fox). Initially, she is the picture of servility: graceful, obedient, and eerily empathetic. But as Faye’s learning algorithm accelerates, she begins to question her purpose, her role in society, and ultimately,...

Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly both might like to get back together. That doesn’t mean that it’s happening.

In late March, Fox welcomed her fourth child.

This daughter is her first child with Kelly. Given that the two broke up late last year, this is also likely their last as a couple.

However, Mgk is reportedly feeling nothing short of desperate to win her back.

According to a report from In Touch Weekly, Machine Gun Kelly is eager to reunite with Megan Fox.

Spoiler Alert: This article contains descriptions of scenes from Prime Video’s new comedy series “Overcompensating.”

Benito Skinner is so out and proud, he created a television show about it.

Skinner (known as Benny Drama to his millions of social media followers) stars in his semi-autobiographical Prime Video comedy series “Overcompensating” as Benny, a former high school football star who begins exploring coming out of the closet during his freshman year of college. The eight-episode premiere season follows Benny as he navigates frat life, same-sex crushes and trying to live up to his family and friends’ high and very hetero expectations.

“Amazon let me make the gayest show ever,” Skinner says on the latest episode of the “Just for Variety” podcast.

There are many examples why the show could live up to such a high queer standard, but one can just take Benny’s wardrobe to be convinced.

“It would be a loincloth one day,...

Overcompensating is a psychologically loaded word. We hear it in therapy, we hear it in business meetings, and we generally do not look at it in a positive light. Why is that? It is because overcompensation by definition points towards a certain lack—and a cover-up! It points towards excessive efforts taken by an individual to make up for their weaknesses or shortcomings. This is something we consciously or unconsciously keep doing when we feel like we are a cultural misfit in a certain time or space, or people aren’t able to see us for ourselves, or a mix of both. When does reality hit us in our face for the first time? When we are no longer children cocooned in the comfort of our homes, when we step out in the world and take the first big step towards adulthood, in short—college.

What Is The Series About?...

After going back to college and back into the closet for his starring TV debut in Overcompensating, Benito Skinner let it all fly at the premiere of his Prime Video series.

The star and creator of the the heartfelt college comedy spoke to Deadline on Wednesday’s red carpet at the Hollywood Palladium about his metamorphosis from creating TikTok characters to becoming a character actor to the “really surreal” experience of leading a series inspired by his own coming out journey.

“I feel like, luckily though, this took a while, and because of that, I was able to really find what I wanted to say, the world of the show, the voice that I wanted to do, I was able to think about the performance,” he said. “Whereas I think what I learned back then is like, ‘How many jokes can I say in a minute...

The American sex comedy is alive and well and enrolled at Yates College, safe in the hands of Overcompensating star and creator Benito Skinner and showrunner Scott King.

A throwback to classics like American Pie and Mean Girls and a trailblazer in the stories it tells, Overcompensating is a smart and funny look at the deeply closeted Benny (Skinner), whose first year in college brings with it a lot of other firsts — and a new best friend in Carmen (Wally Baram), who has her own collegiate ups and downs (and ins and outs). Somehow, the odd-couple pairing of internet darling Skinner and MadTV alum King is to the show’s benefit.

“[Producers] A24 and Amazon were like, ‘We want to set you up with a few showrunners,’” Skinner says. “And I was so nervous. I will admit, in this moment, I was in Italy when I did the Zoom, and I...

Benito Skinner’s semi-biographical college comedy “Overcompensating” is the social media star‘s first long-form project.

His Prime Video series introduces several new faces to the comedy landscape alongside a stacked list of guest stars. Skinner’s podcasting partner, Mary Beth Barone, stars as his sister in the series, while Wally Baram makes her acting debut as Benny’s freshman-year friend.

“Overcompensating” also includes Connie Britton and Kyle MacLachlan as Benny’s parents, and guest stars Kaia Gerber, Owen Thiele and Charli Xcx. Additional guest stars include Lukas Gage, Megan Fox, James Van Der Beek, Bowen Yang, Matt Rogers, Didi Conn, Rachel Matthews, Danielle Perez, Boman Martinez Reid and Yasmine Sahid.

Skinner stars as Benny, a semi-autobiographical version of his closeted college self.

At an orientation meeting on his first day of college, Benny is told, “You can be whoever you want to be here!” This is exactly what Benny wants — if only he can figure out who he wants to be. In high school, he was the star of the football team and the golden boy of his small Idaho town. But he was also deep in the closet — so deep that even in college, he can’t fully admit to himself that he’s gay.

This is the central tension of Overcompensating,...

It’s been several years since I graduated from college, so I’m unqualified to say with certainty whether or not it’s a regular occurrence for today’s savvy students to bond over their love of Ashlee Simpson, whose last album came out before some of them were born.

This unexpected celebration of the “Pieces of Me” auteur is one of several moments in Benito Skinner’s new Amazon comedy Overcompensating that feel not exactly “wrong,” but more appropriate for juvenile millennials than Zoomers. Almost every pop culture reference in Overcompensating, including extended nods to Twilight, Glee and the reappropriated Megan Fox classic Jennifer’s Body, comes across, at best, as a thing that the main characters might have discovered from their much older siblings. Or parents.

It all fits because the cast of Overcompensating projects, top to bottom, as several years older than the characters they’re playing, a...

With his onscreen starring debut, Benito Skinner wanted to immerse viewers the gay millennial experience.

In the comedian and actor’s new Prime Video series Overcompensating, premiering May 15 on the streamer, he tells Deadline that pop culture nostalgia was “the name of the game” to capture his coming out story, with help from Charli Xcx, Megan Fox, Kyle MacLachlan and Connie Britton.

Created by Skinner, the TikTok star plays Benny, a college freshman trying to fit in with a very heteronormative group of friends while attempting to come to terms with his sexuality. But there are signs, including the character’s love of Jennifer’s Body, brought full-circle with a cameo by Megan Fox as herself.

“I wanted to write her a letter too, just so that she wouldn’t read this [script] and be like, ‘What the f— is this?'” said Skinner. “And I tried to just be like,...

Megan Fox has really never gotten a fair deal. I’m not going to relitigate decades of Hollywood misogyny, but know that I believe Fox is a more talented performer than her harshest critics would have you believe. After all, nothing in cult classic Jennifer’s Body works without her, and it’s a considerably more complex performance than “sexy succubus”. In recent years, Fox has been cropping up in more and more horror films, and I’ve largely been a pretty big fan.

Rogue pits her against some killer lions in a goofy The Ghost and the Darkness riff, and Subservience… well, Fox is really good in it. Speaking of Subservience, director S.K. Dale previously helmed Till Death. Dale made his debut there, and it similarly stars Megan Fox. It’s also incredible, and streaming now on Netflix. What are you waiting for?

If you have been looking for a college show like ABC Family's Greek that has the outrageous sense of humor of The Sex Lives of College Girls, then you have found exactly what you've been searching for in Prime Video's Overcompensating. The series comes from comedian and online personality Benito Skinner, who stars in the series that's loosely based on his experiences.

The forthcoming series has drawn interest for its subject matter and high-profile guest appearances from stars like Emmy nomniee Connie Britton and pop superstar Charli Xcx. It's by far one of the new shows coming to streaming this spring that needs to be on your radar, but before you check out Overcompensating when it premieres this month, you need to be in the know.

Brian Austin Green is addressing those Megan Fox grooming allegations.

If you don’t know, Brian and Megan met on the set of Hope & Faith back in 2004. At the time, she was 18 years old and he was 30 years old.

They were together on and off and got married in 2010. They split up once a few years later, but reconciled. They split for good in 2020. He’s now in a relationship with DWTS’ Sharna Burgess.

On their “Oldish” podcast, Sharna asked him why he had never addressed allegations that he “groomed” Megan.

Sydney Sweeney had such a warm greeting for Machine Gun Kelly that people are starting to talk.

This was not at the 2025 Met Gala on Monday, but at a club opening in Vegas.

Mgk’s split with Megan Fox came only months before Sweeney’s broken engagement.

As of 2025, Canadian actress Stana Katic’s estimated net worth is $12 million. Best known for her role as Kate Beckett on Castle, the 5ft 9in (175.3 cm) star frequently wears high heels to add polish to her already statuesque frame.

Born in Hamilton, Ontario, and raised between Canada and Aurora, Illinois, Katic brings international flair to both her on-screen roles and real-life red carpet appearances. “I carry Marc Jacobs Magic Marc’er eyeliner and Christian Dior red lipstick to amp up my look in a flash,” she once revealed—an insight that reflects her glamorous yet grounded fashion sense.

We're a few years removed from its ending, but "New Girl" had a very healthy run on Fox, airing seven seasons from 2011 to 2018. The vast majority of those 146 episodes centered on Zooey Deschanel's hijinks as Jess in her loft apartment in Los Angeles alongside her roommates, Nick (Jake Johnson), Schmidt (Max Greenfiled), and Winston (Lamorne Morris).

The apartment in question is, in some ways, the typical sitcom apartment, much like the ones from "Friends," in that it seems far too expensive for the characters to actually afford. But this is television, after all, and it doesn't have to obey the laws of reality. Still, for fans of the show, it's probably worth wondering how much Jess and the gang would have had to pay to actually live in that apartment. Los Angeles is famously one of the most expensive cities in the U.

Stardom often comes with its perks, lavish red carpets, endless paparazzi, and millions of fans. But sometimes, the very roles that catapult an actor into the limelight are a double-edged sword. The fame that once seemed so sweet can quickly turn sour, leaving actors trapped in characters they’d rather forget. While the world loves to shout “iconic!” these stars have been known to mutter something closer to “ugh, not again.”

From being forever linked to a single, typecast role to being bombarded with fan expectations, these actors have all experienced the dark side of fame. So, let’s dive into the top 8 stars who, despite their legendary status, absolutely hated the roles that made them famous, because sometimes, the price of fame isn’t just fame itself.

No performer likes to receive a thumbs-down for their work, but imagine how it feels when this is a reality for a lengthy period of time. For some actors, they embarked on terrible Rotten Tomatoes streaks that weren't kind to their careers. Now, bear in mind that Rotten Tomatoes isn't the be-all and end-all of a film's quality, but it's a tool used by many to see what's the overall consensus from the critics. In addition to this, while the aggregator didn't exist before the '90s, it still collects the big reviews from bygone eras to showcase what the critical thoughts were of major productions.

So, for this feature, it's time to head back in time to look at the major actors who received rotten ratings for a notable stretch of their careers. To make life easier here, though, films that haven't officially received the "rotten" or "fresh" label...

The post Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly Welcome Their Daughter: The Actress Becomes a Mum to a Baby Girl first appeared on Xmag UK.

Actor Brian Austin Green hit back at Machine Gun Kelly after Green repeatedly asked when Mgk and Megan Fox‘s baby was due.

Green, 51, shared a screenshot of his conversation with Kelly, 34, on his Instagram Stories after he chastised Green for asking when his and Fox’s, 38, child is due. Kelly is the father of Cassie Baker, who is 15. Fox gave birth to a child this week.

Green’s comments about Kelly came after news of his and Fox’s split in December when it was reported that the couple had broken up due to cheating.

“Stop asking when our child is going to be born,” Kelly wrote, “Quit calling TMZ and focus on that apology you owe me for speaking my name in public. You chose the wrong one to f– k with, Mr. Child actor; go back to cereal commercials.”

Underneath the photo, Green wrote, “I didn’t...

One of the most recognizable faces of the mid-2000s and 2010s, Megan Fox occupies a contentious position within Hollywood. While '90s babies were first introduced to Fox in films like "Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen" or the Mary-Kate and Ashley film "Holiday in the Sun," by 2007 she was best-known for playing eye candy in films like "Transformers."

The big question about Fox has always been, "Is she talented, or just hot?" Public opinion about Fox was not great following her breakout role in "Transformers." Many found her attractive (she was crowned "sexiest woman in the world" by FHM men's magazine in 2008), but these fans often didn't respect Fox either as a woman or an actress.

On the other hand, some found her deliberate sex appeal offensive or anti-feminist because she leaned into her sex symbol status and seemed okay with being objectified. Indeed, Fox has always been...

A source is sharing some new insight into Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly‘s relationship.

If you forgot, the 38-year-old Transformers actress and the 34-year-old musician got engaged in January 2022. They called it quits in November 2024, just weeks after announcing they were expecting a baby together.

Following the baby’s birth on March 27, a source is sharing an update on where Megan and Mgk currently stand.

Keep reading to find out more…“Whatever issues they have, Megan and Mgk both are on the same page when it comes to co-parenting,” the source told People. “Right now they’re amicable.”

“No one would be surprised if they gave their relationship another try down the line,” the insider added. “But right now they’re focused on what’s best for their daughter.”

Hours before announcing the birth of their baby girl, Mgk got publicly slammed by Megan‘s ex-husband Brian Austin Green.

The Legend of Zelda burst onto the scene in 1986, when the first game in the franchise was released as a first-party title on the Nintendo Entertainment System. Super Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto co-designed Zelda with Takashi Tezuka, and the two visionaries managed to release their foray into fantasy months before other popular franchises like Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy, beating their competitors to the punch.

The Legend of Zelda casts players in the role of Link, a sword-wielding fantasy hero out to save a kingdom from a great evil. There had never been a game like Zelda before, and the initial response from testers was closer to confusion than celebration. Where were the jumps? The platforms? In Zelda, you could go in any of the cardinal directions and explore the world to complete your quest. This was a revelation.
