These Classic Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen Movies Are Heading to Hulu

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are returning to a screen near you! While the famous twins officially retired from acting in 2012 to instead focus on their fashion careers, you’ll soon be able to enjoy the peak of their movie-making days on Hulu, which is releasing three classic Olsen twin films.

Beginning May 1, Hulu subscribers will be able to stream Billboard Dad (1998), Passport to Paris (1999), and Switching Goals (1999).

Since it’s probably been a few years (or a couple of decades) since you watched any of the three movies, here’s a brief refresher. Billboard Dad sees Mary-Kate and Ashley as twins on a quest to set up their widowed father, Maxwell Tyler (Tom Amandes). Their plan involves putting his face on a billboard — hence the title of the film — which attracts more attention than they were expecting.

In Passport to Paris, the sisters hop on a plane and fly across the ocean to visit their grandpa Edward (Peter White) in the city of lights, where they fall for two charming French boys.

And in Switching Goals — which came out the same year as Passport to Paris but features a very different storyline — the identical soccer-playing siblings swap places on rival teams to prove a point while also scoring points.

If these now-nostalgic stories were a part of your childhood, be sure to check out all three films when they hit Hulu at the beginning of May.

The Twisters storyline is said to continue with a sequel! A second iteration of the 2024 remake is “reportedly in the works,” according to entertainment writer and insider, Daniel Richtman. That could potentially mean more Daisy Edgar-Jones, and, of course, more Glen Powell!

Here’s everything we know about Twisters 2.

Who will star in 'Twisters 2'?

Though we don’t have an official casting for the film quite yet, fans are speculating that Daisy Edgar-Jones and Glen Powell would return for a Twisters sequel.

“There's no doubt in my mind that Powell and Edgar-Jones are game to reprise their lead roles,” Jordan Ruimy writes for World of Reel.

“I don’t think it needs a sequel but if they can write a compelling story with halfway decent character development and maintain the chemistry in the cast, I’d definitely go see it,” one Twisters fan wrote on Reddit.

What will 'Twisters 2' be about?

There’s no word on the plot of a Twisters sequel, either. Some fans of the film were definitely quick to share some theories for it:

“Tyler faces the moral dilemma about click bait vs accurate information. Kate gets upset about him profiting off of people’s fears. Then Tyler adjusts some way. Still can get tornadoes in there easily,” one person wrote. “Or they could continue down the experiment route and having to get and keep funding looking for better ways to stop a tornado. Or the fall out of the sodium ruining the farm land.”

“Another film to continue the chemistry between Kate and Tyler would be sick,” another user said.

While a potential Twisters 2 sounds appealing to some fans, others are hesitant to greenlight it, preferring a separate storyline instead.

“I'm open to the idea of a Twisters sequel, but I'd prefer they'd leave it as a standalone film,” one more person weighed in.

When does 'Twisters 2' come out?

Melinda Sue Gordon for Universal Pictures / Warner Bros. Pictures / Amblin Entertainment

Twisters hit theaters last year in the summertime, so we predict any potential Twisters 2 would come out the summer of 2026. It’s a tad bit too early to say for sure, though, since murmurings of the movie are still fairly new.

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are no strangers to making headlines — and apparently Ben has a lot to say about that after their blockbuster divorce. Bennifer 2.0 was a shocking rekindled romance, but nothing was more shocking about how brief take two was for these seemingly star-crossed lovers. While Ben's historically been pretty tight-lipped about his personal life, he recently opened up in an interview with GQ about Jennifer, their divorce, and how he really feels about it all. Here's what he had to say!

Scroll to see Ben Affleck's rare comments about Jennifer Lopez post-divorce...

Again, it's pretty well-known that Ben Affleck doesn't care much for the spotlight. I mean, he's literally known for looking grumpy — and drinking Dunkin' — in pap shots. And Ben is pretty adamant that underneath all those major headlines, he's just a normal guy with a normal family. He told GQ that his "life is actually pretty drama-free," noting that he experiences all the same things anyone else does.

"I’m sure in your mind you’re thinking, Oh, well, you just got divorced. That’s not drama-free. And I understand that instinct," he elaborated. "But all of this is pretty adult, and for all the sensational stuff that gets written, if somebody sat down and talked to me about it, and I said, “Well, this is really the experience,” their eyes would glaze over with boredom."

When asked about the divorce-stricken elephant in the room, Ben surprisingly shared what ultimately lead to his split from Jennifer Lopez. The interviewer noted that in The Greatest Love Story Never Told, it was clear that Ben wasn't comfortable with sharing so much of himself on screen — and asked what he was going through in those moments.

"Like I mentioned to you before, there are a lot of people who I think have handled celebrity more adeptly and more adroitly than I have, Jennifer among them. My temperament is to be a little bit more reserved and private than hers. As happens in relationships, you don’t always have the same attitude towards these things," he said. "And so I thought, Oh, this is interesting because how do you reconcile that? Because exactly what you said is true. I love and support this person. I believe in them. They’re great. I want people to see that."

Ben explained that there's a highly-quoted part of the documentary where he says, "You don’t marry a ship captain and then say, 'Well, I don’t like going out in the water.'" And ultimately? Ben said that really isn't what caused he and JLo to break things off. He said, "I think it’s important to say that wasn’t the cause of some major fracture. It’s not like you can watch that documentary and go, 'Oh, now I understand the issues that these two had.'"

Maybe one day we'll get the reason Bennifer 2.0 broke our hearts, but for now this answer will have to do. Here's hoping these two are both happy in their own right!

The 2000s were a wild time for movies. It was an era of debatable fashion, even more questionable humor, and films that — looking back — we can't believe ever made it past a pitch meeting.

While certain movies from this nostalgic period remain classics, others haven't aged very well. Whether they're filled with problematic tropes or outdated stereotypes, here are the 10 cringey 2000s movies that wouldn't stand a chance in Hollywood today.

Scroll to see all the super cringe 2000s movies we wouldn't see today...

Summit Entertainment

1. Twilight (2008)

When Twilight premiered in 2008, it became an instant sensation and sparked a cultural obsession with supernatural romance. However, while it left an undeniable mark on pop culture, this film has some major underlying issues.

Once viewed as swoon-worthy, Bella and Edward's relationship feels problematic in hindsight. He was controlling, exhibited stalker-like behavior, and gaslit her into believing that she imagined his supernatural abilities.

Add in the fact that Edward is technically over a century old when Bella is a high schooler, and it's clear why Twilight might not resonate with audiences the same way in 2025.

Universal Pictures

2. Knocked Up (2007)

Directed by Judd Apatow, Knocked Up was initially well-received despite heavily leaning on outdated gender stereotypes. The movie follows responsible and career-driven Alison, who is forced to navigate an unplanned pregnancy with slacker Ben.

Even though Knocked Up delivers plenty of laughs, it also portrays women, especially Alison, as rigid and joyless. Katherine Heigl, the lead actress, criticized this, too, saying the film "Paints the women as shrews, as humorless and uptight, and it paints the men as lovable, goofy, fun-loving guys."

Dreamworks

3. Norbit (2007)

This movie might've showcased Eddie Murphy's ability to transform into multiple characters, yet Norbit is still more cringeworthy than comedic. The portrayal of Rasputia, an over-the-top and domineering woman whose character is built around fat-shaming jokes, is particularly offensive.

Moreover, Murphy also plays Mr. Wong, a wildly stereotypical caricature of an elderly Chinese man.

20th Century Fox

4. Shallow Hal (2001)

Shallow Hal may have set out to deliver a message about inner beauty, but it really missed the mark. Again, this film relies on fatphobic humor, with Gwyneth Paltrow's character serving as the target of the jokes.

It arguably reinforces stereotypes about weight and attractiveness, and Gwyneth (who wore a fat suit) actually called the movie a "disaster" in 2020.

Columbia Pictures

5. White Chicks (2004)

Featuring over-the-top humor and absurd disguises, White Chicks was a hit in 2004. Nonetheless, it's a tired portrayal of women as materialistic, shallow, and obsessed with their looks.

The premise involves two FBI agents posing as socialites during a Hamptons weekend, and it was always meant to be ridiculous. Even so, there are certain scenes that are especially questionable, like when an athlete at the club attempts to spike a woman's drink.

Universal Pictures

6. Brüno (2009)

Brüno was intended to be a bold satire, Sacha Baron Cohen's specialty, but it crosses the line of edgy humor. He plays an exaggerated, flamboyant Austrian fashion journalist, and the mockumentary was meant to expose homophobia.

Despite that, the movie incorporated a lot of outdated gay stereotypes and might've reinforced the notions as opposed to challenging them. In fact, Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) representative Rashad Robinson called the work "problematic in many places and outright offensive in others."

New Line Cinema

7. Wedding Crashers (2005)

Wedding Crashers revolves around two men who lie their way into weddings to manipulate women into sleeping with them. At its core, the film's plot is unsettling and questionable.

Aside from that, it features gay stereotypes, a racist grandmother, and scenes that blur the lines of consent. All that being said, t's obvious why this movie wouldn't fly today.

New Line Cinema

8. The Notebook (2003)

The Notebook is still one of the most favored romance movies of all time, so this may be an unpopular opinion, but some of its most iconic moments are more disturbing than anything.

There's no denying that Noah and Allie's love story is passionate, but his relentless pursuit of her is borderline manipulative. Remember when he threatened to let go of the Ferris wheel if she didn't go on a date with him?

Plus, once they actually get together, their relationship is filled with constant fighting, including scenes when Allie hits Noah. Female-on-male violence has traditionally been glossed over in films, but today, Hollywood is moving away from these problematic depictions.

Paramount Pictures

9. How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003)

This movie follows advice columnist Andie Anderson, played by Kate Hudson, who wants to write an attention-grabbing piece. She finds Ben Berry, an advertising executive who's arguably creepy and manipulative.

While How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days may be a classic rom-com, it relies on gender stereotypes that can feel more offensive than humorous now.

Paramount Pictures

10. Mean Girls (2004)

Finally, we can't forget about Mean Girls, one of the most iconic teen comedies of the 2000s. Sure, it's filled with endlessly quotable lines and a sharp take on high school cliques, but it also has relentless body-shaming.

Many of the scenes would hit differently in today's more body-positive era, making Mean Girls a more cringey watch in 2025.

It's easy to understand why Yellowstone has captivated audiences for five whole seasons. The show is packed with intense drama, complex characters, and stunning landscapes.

Yellowstone is also home to plenty of powerful moments and memorable lines. Whether it's a gut punch of wisdom or a cutting remark, here are some of the show's most iconic quotes.

Scroll to see the most iconic Yellowstonequotes we can't get enough of!

"The only thing I ask is that you outlive me so I never live another day without you." – Beth Dutton

Beth may be regarded as the toughest character in Yellowstone, but beneath her fierce exterior is a deep well of emotion, especially when it comes to Rip.

In one of the most poignant moments of the series, Beth revealed a side of herself that viewers don't often see: her vulnerability and intense love for Rip. For Beth, having him by her side is more than just about companionship. It's a source of strength and stability.

Paramount

"You're either born a willow or born an oak. That's all there is to it." – Lloyd Pierce

In Yellowstone, the harshness of ranch life shapes its inhabitants in unique ways. Here, Lloyd offers a candid observation about the nature of people, suggesting that some are inherently strong and resolute, like oaks, while others are more adaptable and pliable, like willows.

This quote underscores one of the central themes of the show: the tough world of ranching creates individuals who are either suited for the challenge or will be bent by it.

Paramount

"You know, when you boil life down, it's funny just how little you need, isn't it?" – Rip Wheeler

This line perfectly encapsulates Rip's simple yet profound outlook on life. As a man deeply connected to the land, he values self-sufficiency and is content with the basics, a philosophy that aligns closely with the rugged Western lifestyle the Duttons defend.

In his eyes, all that truly matters is the ranch and his family. His humble nature and his unwavering loyalty make him a grounding force amidst the chaos of the show.

Paramount

"The brand isn't something you earn; it's something you live up to." – John Dutton

The Yellowstone brand is not merely a symbol of belonging. As the quote shows, it's also a constant reminder of the responsibility and expectations that come with it.

When Jimmy is given the choice to accept the brand, he isn't just going to be marked as part of the ranch. John Dutton runs his operation with a strict code of loyalty and unquestioned obedience, and Jimmy is being offered an opportunity to prove himself and live a life defined by hard work and sacrifice.

Paramount

"A man who puts a hand on a member of my family never puts a hand on anything else." – Jamie Dutton

Despite their conflicts and dysfunctions, the Duttons share an unbreakable bond when it comes to protecting their own. Jamie's line goes to show that, even with all their flaws, the Duttons will unite in retribution when one of their own is harmed.

What makes this quote particularly striking is that it comes from Jamie, who's like a black sheep in the family.

Paramount

"When you fight for a thing, the thing doesn't care if you win or lose because the thing ain't alive. But when you fight for people, they care." – Kayce Dutton

This line delivered by Kayce underscores the difference between fighting for a cause and fighting for the people you love. He points out the contrast between fighting for material possessions, like the ranch, and the genuine connection and impact that comes from fighting for those you care about.

The quote reveals a key difference between him and his father, John Dutton. While John's primary focus is the ranch's preservation, Kayce is more concerned with his family's well-being.

Paramount

"Learn to be meaner than evil and still love your family and enjoy a sunrise." – John Dutton

In a modern Western like Yellowstone, there are undeniable themes of survival, sacrifice, and loyalty to family. This quote by John reflects the harsh reality of the cowboy lifestyle.

Furthermore, he believes that while life may demand hard choices, it's still possible to find moments of beauty and joy and hold onto the love that makes life worth living. His advice isn't just about fighting evil but surviving in a world where evil is inevitable while preserving a sense of humanity.

Paramount

"When the misery is bad enough, tomorrow is rarely factored into decisions." – Monica Dutton

Finally, it's no secret that Monica has faced an unthinkable amount of challenges in her life, from the trauma of Kayce killing her brother to dealing with systemic racism. This quote shows her belief that when life is filled with mystery, it becomes nearly impossible to think about the future because the present is all-consuming.

It speaks to the emotional weight of living in such a brutal environment and resonates with many of the characters on Yellowstone.

Missing Yellowstone? Us, too. Here's everything you need to know about Taylor Sheridan's epic Yellowstone universe, from 1923to Landman.

Before the rise of streaming services and high-budget dramas like Yellowstone or Westworld, classic Western TV shows ruled the airwaves. These series captured the American frontier's rugged spirit with tales of outlaws, sheriffs, and pioneers as they navigated the Wild West.

Moreover, they paved the way for all the modern productions in this iconic genre. So, whether you grew up watching them or are discovering them for the first time, here are eight old-school Western TV shows that still hold a special place in television history today.

Scroll to see all the old-school western TV shows you should watch if you love Yellowstone...

Wrather Productions

1. The Lone Ranger

Airing from 1949 to 1957, The Lone Ranger was one of the most legendary Western TV shows of its time. It followed the masked hero named Lone Ranger, played by Clayton Moore, and his loyal Indigenous companion Tonto, portrayed by Jay Silverheels. Together, they roamed the frontier and fought injustice.

Aside from the Lone Ranger becoming a symbol of heroism, the show was also groundbreaking in that it portrayed Tonto, an Indigenous character, as a trusted ally as opposed to a stereotypical enemy. This show is still a nostalgic favorite among fans of classic Westerns.

Warner Bros. Television

2. Cheyenne

Cheyenne, which premiered in 1955, was set in the years following the Civil War. It starred Clint Walker as Cheyenne Bodie, a compassionate scout who was raised by an Indigenous American tribe after losing his parents.

This series revolutionized TV since it was the first of its kind to feature hour-long episodes. Plus, Cheyenne was depicted as a soft-spoken and empathic person instead of the typical rough cowboy, making his character more well-rounded than one-dimensional cowboy archetypes.

Walt Disney

3. Zorro

Zorro, which aired from 1957 to 1959, introduced audiences to Don Diego de la Vega, a masked hero played by Guy Williams. Set in 1820s California, the show followed Zorro as he fought against corrupt Spanish officials and pushed for the rights of settlers and Indigenous Mexican individuals.

He became known for his black mask, cape, and sword, which set him apart from other Western heroes who relied on guns. Zorro even went on to inspire a 1998 remake, The Mask of Zorro, featuring stars like Anthony Hopkins, Antonio Banderas, and Catherine Zeta-Jones.

Four Star Productions

4. The Rifleman

Unlike other Westerns that center around outlaws or cowboys, The Rifleman followed Lucas McCain, a kind-hearted rancher played by Chuck Connors. His main priority is ensuring that his son Mark grows up in a safe environment, so he tries to keep the peace in New Mexico.

This show still features the classic Western facets like gunfights and frontier justice. However, it went further by incorporating deeper emotional storytelling and themes of father-son relationships.

NBC

5. Bonanza

Bonanza was one of the most beloved Western series of its time since it blended drama with comedy. The show, which aired from 1959 to 1973, followed the Cartwright family, a group of ranchers in Nevada, as they worked to protect their land and loved ones in the post-Civil War era.

It stood out because it focused on the ensemble cast, not just one hero, which allowed Bonanza to explore more complex themes and societal issues, such as racism. The series got so popular that it ultimately inspired various spin-offs and films.

NBC

6. The Virginian

After The Virginian came out in 1962, it became the first Western TV series to be formatted into 90-minute weekly episodes and forever changed the genre. It centered around a foreman known as "The Virginian," played by James Drury, who oversees Shiloh Ranch in Wyoming.

This show ran for nine seasons, allowing for deeper character and storyline development. It also featured a star-studded cast, including Harrison Ford, William Shatner, and Robert Redford.

Four Star Productions

7. The Big Valley

By focusing on the Barkley family as they ran a ranch in California's San Joaquin Valley, The Big Valley brought a fresh perspective to the Western genre. That's because the family is led by Victoria Barkley, played by Barbara Stanwyck, who was a trailblazing character for her era.

She was strong-willed and gritty and helped reimagine the role of women in Westerns, who were traditionally relegated to minor parts. Plus, her daughter Audra, portrayed by Linda Evans, followed suit.

NBC

8. Little House On The Prairie

Finally, this list just wouldn't be complete without Little House On The Prairie. Based on the books by Laura Ingalls Wilder, this series followed Laura, played by Melissa Gilbert, as she grew up as a young girl in the late 1800s Midwest.

This show was a groundbreaking Western as it focused on a female lead and tackled the harsher realities of life on the frontier. Little House On The Prairie included themes of family, gender inequality, and sisterhood, making it a more relatable classic.
