Netflix’s ‘Nailed It!’ Just Gave Us an Early Holiday Gift

Christmas in July is happening! Though there are still five whole months until the 2018 holiday season is here, Netflix has given us the gift of good news with the announcement that seven holiday episodes of Nailed It! will be released in December.

The baking-fail competition show tweeted out the good news on Thursday, July 26, with a photo of a sloppily wrapped Christmas gift on Thursday. “Happy Christmas in July!” the tag read, its cheerful spirit belied by the bleak brown Kraft paper, messy tape, and odd, smushed-cake shape of the gift. But it’s the thought that counts, after all.

The news comes on the tail end of lots of Nailed It! goodies in recent weeks. Season 2 of Netflix’s breakout baking competition show returned for another round of hilarious culinary fails in June, and at the same time, a special crossover mini-episode with the Queer Eye Fab Five came into our lives and made everything okay for a minute.

Both Nailed It! and Queer Eye have been major reality-show hits for the streaming service, which also dipped a toe into the popular home renovation genre with its first original home improvement show, Amazing Interiors, this month.

So far, Netflix hasn’t released any additional info on the upcoming festive cooking fails, but we’ll assume that host Nicole Byer and chef Jacques Torres will be back in action as the judges without judgment. Happy (early) holidays!

Are you excited for the upcoming holiday episodes of Nailed It!? Let us know @BritandCo!

It is a truth universally acknowledged that I will absolutely eat up any Pride and Prejudice adaptation. Jane Austen's most famous story has everything: romance, sisterly love, and the blueprint for the enemies-to-lovers trope. To this day, I've never read a fight with dialogue as memorable as Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy, and the fact the story eventually gave us THE hand flex in Joe Wright's 2005 adaptation? That's just the cherry on top.

If you've been on TikTok for more than a day, you've probably seen the scene, which stars Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen, replayed at different speeds and angles, which is both its own commentary on the female gaze and a testament to how rich Austen's books are. There are countless glances and touches between Elizabeth and Darcy that add so much nuance to their relationship. And it looks like we're getting countless other moments to turn into TikTok edits because a brand new limited series is coming to Netflix! And the new Pride and Prejudice cast is unbelievable.

Here's everything we know about Netflix's Pride and Prejudice, starring Emma Corrin, Jack Lowden, and Olivia Colman.

Who's in the Netflix Pride and Prejudice cast?

Des Willie/Netflix

The Pride and Prejudice cast is already a super buzzy lineup (and "fantastic," according to one X user). I agree! So far we have:

  • Emma Corrin as Elizabeth Bennet: a headstrong and intelligent young woman determined to marry for love.
  • Jack Lowden as Mr. Darcy: a handsome and wealthy bachelor that has a reputation for his pride.
  • Olivia Colman as Mrs. Bennet: Lizzy's very enthusiastic mother, who wants her daughters married and cared for.

“Playing Elizabeth Bennet is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” Emma says in an interview with Netflix. “To be able to bring this iconic character to life, alongside Olivia and Jack, with Dolly’s phenomenal scripts, is truly the greatest honor. I can’t wait for a new generation to fall in love with this story all over again.”

The other characters we're still waiting on are Jane Bennet, Mr. Charles Bingley, Caroline Bingley, Mary Bennet, Kitty Bennet, Mr. George Wickham, Lydia Bennet, and Mr. Bennet. According to The Daily Mail, Daisy Edgar-Jones (Twisters) has been sent scripts for the series, and now I just NEED to see her as Jane! (Maybe we could get Paul Mescal as Bingley?)

Is there a new Pride and Prejudice coming out in 2026?

Focus Features

Yes we're getting a brand new Pride and Prejudice! THR reports the series is set to film later this year, so there's a good chance we'll see the show next year.

Dolly Alderton (Everything I Know About Love) is writing the script for Pride and Prejudice while Euros Lyn will direct.

“Once in a generation, a group of people get to retell this wonderful story and I feel very lucky that I get to be a part of it,” Dolly tells Netflix. “Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice is the blueprint for romantic comedy — it has been a joy to delve back into its pages to find both familiar and fresh ways of bringing this beloved book to life."

"The book is a gift to adapt — packed with drama and depth as well as comedy and charm," she continues. "In it lies the opportunity to examine the complexities of love, family, friendship and society, while aspiring to Austen’s delightfully observational voice. With Euros Lyn directing our stellar cast, I am so excited to reintroduce these hilarious and complicated characters to those who count Pride and Prejudice as their favorite book, and those who are yet to meet their Lizzie and Mr Darcy.”

Where can I watch Pride and Prejudice?

Nick Wall/Netflix

You'll be able to watch the show on Netflix, but stay tuned for the Pride and Prejudice release date!

This is going to mark the first time the streamer's adapted a Jane Austen story since 2022's Persuasion, which received a 30 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes and led to reviews with titles like Netflix's Persuasion is an absolute disaster and ‘Persuasion’ Is Awful and It’s Also Everything That’s Wrong with Netflix. The report also follows the news that the BBC is adapting The Other Bennet Sister, which revolves around Mary.

With Dolly Alderton behind the scenes, I'm sure the new adaptation will have the same wit as the original story, with a modern edge that will attempt to make it more relatable, with (hopefully) enough respect for the original work to make it not feel untrue to the original story.

How many episodes of Pride and Prejudice are there?

Pride and Prejudice Plot

Pride and Prejudice follows the Bennet family and their five daughters: Jane, Elizabeth, Mary, Kitty, and Lydia. When Mr. Darcy arrives to town — and Elizabeth immediately dislikes him — she strives to see as little of him as possible. This proves to be a difficult task when Jane falls for his best friend Mr. Bingley.

Does Netflix have Pride and Prejudice?

Focus Features

Wondering, Where can I watch the original Pride and Prejudice movie? Both the 2005 Pride & Prejudice and Persuasion are on Netflix now! The 1995 Pride and Prejudice is on Peacock.

I haven't been able to stop thinking about Drop since I saw it (and since I interviewed stars Meghann Fahy and Brandon Sklenar!) — and if you like thrillers, I'm sure you'll be obsessed with this one too. The script is tight, the visuals are beautiful (albeit eerie), and Meghann and Brandon are absolutely electric onscreen together. In Brit + Co's latest episode of our Yap City podcast, we dive into the interview experience and why the movie is so dang good.

Here's why you should see Meghann Fahy & Brandon Sklenar's Drop, in theaters now!

What is the movie Drop 2025 about?

Drop follows Violet (Meghann Fahy), who's excited for her date with Henry (Brandon Sklenar) — until she starts getting anonymous drops to her phone threatening her son. She can't tell Henry about the messages, especially since the final one instructs her to kill him.

But despite the thriller of it all, I've been calling Drop a "scary rom-com" because of just how electric Brandon and Meghann are onscreen, and how much I care about them as a viewer. I cared more about their relationship than some actual romance movies this year!

And in this episode of Yap City, I offer some behind-the-scenes moments from my Drop interviews, and spill on which Emily Henry character fits Brandon Sklenar perfectly.

Where can I watch Drop?

@britandco Y’all won’t want to miss this one. #drop#dropthemovie#meghannfahy#movie#brandonsklenar#1923#whitelotus#moviereview#review#fyp#foryoupage @Universal Pictures @Blumhouse #greenscreen♬ So High School - Taylor Swift

Drop is in theaters today, April 11, 2025!

Who's in the Drop cast?

The Drop cast has some of the hottest names around, including:

  • Meghann Fahy as Violet: a widowed mother finally going on a date who starts getting anonymous drops to her phone.
  • Brandon Sklenar as Henry: Violet's date who tries to help her figure out the drop mystery.
  • Violett Beane as Jen: Violet's sister and date night babysitter.
  • Jacob Robinson as Toby: Violet's (very adorable) son.
  • Reed Diamond as Richard: a man Violet meets who's also at the restaurant for a date.
  • Gabrielle Ryan as Cara: the bartender who keeps an eye on Violet.
  • Jeffery Self as Matt: Violet and Henry's waiter.
  • Ed Weeks as Phil: the restaurant pianist.

Where did Drop film?

Director Chrisopher Landon and the Drop team built the restaurant set themselves, and Christopher told me in an interview that the gilded look of the restaurant was meant to mimic a cage — and make Violet and viewer feel trapped. The movie filmed in Ireland.

When it comes to streaming platforms, having a variety of content is king, and Paramount+ is undoubtedly building an empire. Originally launched as CBS All Access, the platform rebranded in 2021 with a new name and became a one-stop shop for everything TV from binge-worthy originals to nostalgic classics.

To help you sort through the sea of options, we've rounded up 10 must-watch Paramount+ shows that deserve your attention this month. Whether you're into comforting oldies, comedies, gripping drama, or even reality TV, here are our top picks.

Scroll to see all the Paramount+ TV shows to watch in April 2025!

Paramount+

1. Tulsa King

Sylvester Stallone made a bold entrance into television with Tulsa King, a gritty yet entertaining crime drama from the mind of Taylor Sheridan. Sylvester plays Dwight "The General" Manfredi, a seasoned New York mobster who's exiled to Tulsa, Oklahoma, after serving a 25-year prison sentence and starts building a criminal empire from the ground up. Other stars include Andrea Savage, Max Casella, Neal McDonough, and more.

DreamWorks Television

2. Freaks and Geeks

Before they were household names, actors like Linda Cardellini, Seth Rogen, Jason Segel, and James Franco were the fresh-faced stars of Freaks and Geeks, a short-lived but beloved dramedy that captured the awkward, painful, and hilarious high school journey.

The show, which came out in 1999, follows Lindsay, a bright student who veers off the mathlete path to hang out with underachievers; meanwhile, her younger brother navigates freshman year.

Paramount+

3. Colin From Accounts

Colin From Accounts is an Australian rom-com that begins in an unexpected way: with a car accident and an injured dog. When the character Gordon, played by Patrick Brammall, nearly hits Ashley, portrayed by Harriet Dyer, with his car, the pair find themselves co-parenting a stray dog they name Colin.

The show's depiction of modern romance is witty, heartfelt, and filled with chemistry, making it easy to binge.

Paramount+

4. Evil

If you're more into the dark and twisted, check out Evil, which explores the blurry line between the psychological and the supernatural. It follows Kristen, a skeptical forensic psychologist, who teams up with a priest to investigate unexplained phenomena.

Evil weaves in commentary on science, faith, and the modern world's own dark side: internet culture. The cast includes Katja Herbers, Mike Colter, Michael Emerson, Andrea Martin, and more.

Lynch/Frost Productions

5. Twin Peaks

While it came out in 1990, Twin Peaks is still considered one of the best shows ever created. When a high school student named Laura Palmer is found dead, Dale Cooper, an FBI agent, is called in to solve the case. This leads to the discovery of secrets buried within a seemingly quiet and unassuming town.

Created by David Lynch and Mark Frost, the cast includes David Lynch himself, Kyle MacLachlan, Sheryl Lee, Lara Flynn Boyle, Sherilyn Fenn, Frank Silva, Grace Zabriskie, and more.

CBS Studios

6. The Twilight Zone

Rod Serling's The Twilight Zone is one classic that will never go out of style. This series uses science fiction, horror, and fantasy to tell self-contained stories that often end with a moral punch or twist. The episodes are only 30 minutes long, but each one pushes the boundaries of viewers' imaginations and reflects the anxieties of its time.

Still, even decades later, the thoughtful themes and eeriness resonate among audiences, both young and old.

Showtime

7. Yellowjackets

Yellowjackets is the kind of thriller that pulls you in from the very first episode. After a high school girls' soccer team crashes in the remote wilderness, the series jumps between the events that unfold following the accident and the lives of the adult survivors over two decades later.

This show, starring Melanie Lynskey, Tawny Cypress, Sophie Nélisse, Ella Purnell, Hilary Swank, and more, is unpredictable and binge-worthy.

CBS

8. The Amazing Race

The Amazing Race is a reality TV staple that's continued captivating audiences for more than 20 years. It follows teams of two as they race across the globe and tackle challenges for a chance at winning a $1 million prize.

Beyond the adrenaline rush, the series gives viewers a glimpse into diverse cultures and gorgeous landscapes. It's part travel, part competition, but totally entertaining.

Comedy Central

9. Drunk History

Your high school history class definitely wasn't like Drunk History, where real historical events are retold by intoxicated narrators. Hosted by Derek Waters, the show delivers tipsy (and not always entirely verbatim) takes on all sorts of scandals and situations, from the death of Rasputin to the Stonewall riots.

It's chaotic but surprisingly informative and features a rotating cast of comedians and celebrity cameos.

Showtime

10. Dexter

Last but not least is Dexter, an unsettling yet oddly endearing crime drama. Michael C. Hall stars as Dexter Morgan, a forensic blood spatter analyst by day and a serial killer by night. The twist is that he only targets people whom he thinks deserve it.

Dexter came out in 2006, has eight seasons, and is still one of TV's most compelling depictions of a monster hiding right in plain sight.

What is the movie Sinners about?

Warner Bros. Pictures

When twin brothers Smoke and Stack return home for a new beginning, they're initially met with welcome arms. But as daylight turns to dusk and gives way to nightfall, unspeakable horrors expose themselves to the townspeople. Evil in the form of vampires consume everything in their path and it changes the brothers in ways they could've never prepared for.

It's set in the 1930s South which means we'll get dialect, fashion, music, and more themes from that time period.

Where was Sinners 2025 filmed?

Warner Bros. Pictures

According to IMDB, Sinners was filmed in the following Louisiana cities: New Orleans, Bogalusa, Donaldsonville, and Labadieville!

Who's Hailee Steinfeld starring as in Sinners? 

Warner Bros. Pictures

Hailee Steinfeld will be starring as Mary, the love interest of Stack. Since not much is known about her outside of that, we're assuming their romance is forbidden. What we do know is Hailee's a fan of her character and the overall themes of Sinners.

According to PEOPLE, the actress shared more of her thoughts in her newsletter BEAU SOCIETY March 28. She wrote, "...This role is far removed from what I've done, but that's part of what drew me to it! I feel like I'm stepping into my own more and more as I get older, and this role mirrors that."

She also shared that it didn't take much for her to be a part of Sinners. "The minute I heard Ryan Coogler, I was in. Then I read his script and was like, 'Holy s---, this feels like a massive undertaking.' The story is so complex and layered," calling herself "fortunate and honored to even be remotely considered." So, how does Hailee Steinfeld feel about Sinners as a whole?

She says it's "thrilling and sexy and daring and dangerous — with bold representations." Calling this type of movie a "first" for her, she continued sharing her excitement about it on the TODAY Show while chatting with Jenna Bush Hager and John Legend. She said, "This role, I feel just challenged me in ways that I was ready for." She also praised Ryan Coogler for being "the most incredible writer and director," which continues to speak to his amazing sight!

Is Hailee Steinfeld on the Sinners movie soundtrack?

YouTube

Plus, the actress revealed she recorded new music for the Sinners soundtrack! She shared the news in her BEAU SOCIETY newsletter and gave subscribers an inside peek at how her song "Dangerous" was created.

She wrote, "Eleven days ago, I found myself somewhere I haven’t been in over two years: a recording studio. Not just any recording studio, but Jimi Hendrix’s Electric Lady!" Hailee then proceeded to thank everyone who helped her record the song.

She thanked Ryan Coogler for his unwavering belief in her role as Mary and "also as a musician," before expressing gratitude for Coogler's wife Zinzi, a producer for the Sinners movie. "She was a guiding force throughout the entire process," Hailee said of her and also commended her "calm confidence" for bringing "a perspective to this song that made it click" for the actress."

Setting her sights on Ludwig Göransson, Hailee noted how "his music tells stories that will burn a hole in your heart" and calls working with him "beyond a dream." She was also stoked that he "brought in Sara Aarons, an amazing songwriter (via phone call), to help with the top line."

Lastly, Hailee complimented violinist and orchestrator Serena McKinney Göransson (Ludwig's wife) for bringing "so much soul and precision" to "Dangerous." She applauded Serena's "supportive female energy" and said "watching her work with Ludwig was like watching people paint with sound."

Overall, Hailee feels her new song has a "hauntingly beautiful score" that's perfect for Sinners because it has "emotional tension and quiet unraveling" in it.

Although we can only listen to a snippet of "Dangerous," the full song releases next Friday, April 18.

Who else is in the Sinners cast? 

Warner Bros. Pictures

Besides Hailee Steinfeld, Sinners has a robust cast that'll make the storyline even more rousing. In no particular order, viewers will see:

This post has been updated.

We've probably all been on a bad date, but I'll bet none of us have had a date quite like Drop. In the movie (out April 11), Violet (Meghann Fahy) goes out with Henry (Brandon Sklenar), but when she starts receiving threatening drops to her phone, the cute first date morphs into a mission to survive the night. Okay, that's pretty intense. And if things ever got crazy IRL, Meghann says she'd want to stick with Brandon.

Here's what Meghann Fahy said about 1923 star Brandon Sklenar, and her best advice for a bad date. Plus, whether Brandon would do a rom-com!

Meghann Fahy trusts Brandon Sklenar's survival skills.

Brandon Sklenar and Meghann Fahy are electric onscreen in Drop, and Meghann admits if she found herself in the same situation as Violet, Brandon would be her first call. "If sh—t went down, he'd be a good guy to be with," she tells Brit + Co exclusively. "I feel like you got some real survival skills."

"I could do a couple of things, but most of that I learned from my friends of mine who are even gnarlier than me," he says. "I take little credit. I mean, you learn everything from somewhere, right?"

"I mean, I'm pretty good with like hand to hand combat," he continues, before Meghann tells him he's good at intimidation and he quite literally goes, "Grr, scary face. Spooky." I'm still giggling about it.

And Meghann Fahy has some great advice for a bad date.

Universal Pictures

But a nightmare date doesn't have to be literally life-threatening, and Meghann shares some of her best advice for anyone who finds themselves on a bad date. "When in doubt, ask someone else a question," she says.

"I think if you're on a bad date and you realize 'I'm probably not gonna end up with this person,' just try to enjoy yourself anyway and make it about just trying to connect with somebody," Brandon adds. "Just just get to know somebody for the sake of getting to know someone."

When it comes to ice breaker questions and conversation starters, Meghann loves "a final meal [question] like last meal, appetizer, main, dessert, drinks, sides, the whole bit."

"What did you want to be when you were really little growing up?" Brandon adds. "Dream scenario." (Let the record show Brandon has admitted he loved Batman growing up, and he's a leading fancast for the DCU. I'm totally here for it).

Brandon Sklenar says "never say never" to starring in a rom-com one day.

Universal Pictures

Drop might be a thriller (and a dang good one), but I've also been referring to it as a scary rom-com because of how incredible Brandon Sklenar and Meghann Fahy's chemistry is, but would Brandon ever do a real rom-com?

"It's possible. I'm not saying no, but it's possible," he teases. "I'd love to do a comedy at some point. Everything I have in the future is very far from, and very far from romance, but I'd say it's possible. Yeah, never say never."

As far as his dream comedy goes, Brandon tells Brit + Co, "I love Peter Sellers and I love like Chevy Chase movies. I'm like I'm a very physical guy and I'd love to be able to do something just absurd like grounded but completely absurd."

Is Meghann Fahy in a relationship?

Yes, Meghann Fahy is dating Leo Woodall, who starred with her in The White Lotus season 2.

What is the age difference between Leo Woodall and Meghann Fahy?

Meghann Fahy is 34 years old and was born on April 25, 1990. Leo Woodall, who was born on September 14, 1996, is 28 years old. There's a six year age difference between them.
