Reese Witherspoon’s Daughter Is Her Mom’s Mini-Me + Our New Hair Icon

News flash: those celebrity kiddos you still imagine as babies probably aren’t babies anymore. Johnny Depp’s daughter is already looking like a supermodel and remember the adorable tykes from the “Charlie Bit Me” video (of course you do), they’re eight and 11-years-old now. So who’s the latest Generation Z youngin’ to make us feel ancient? That honor goes to Reese Witherspoon’s daughter, Ava Phillippe.

The 15-year-old and her mother each shared a snap of the lookalikes before Reese’s Hot Pursuit premiere yesterday. Of course, Reese is looking beautiful as ever, but what shocked us most was not only how grown up her daughter is now, but also how much she resembles her parents. Ava definitely has her mom’s jaw line and lips, but those eyes are all Ryan Phillippe. Talk about snagging the genetic jackpot.

Aside from her enviable genes, we’re also totally smitten by Ava’s mermaid-tastic hair color. It’s unclear whether her long locks are unintentionally or purposefully faded, but either way, we’re into it. The subtle ombré look she’s got going on looks kind of like a mashup of both Hilary Duff’s dramatic hair makeovers all at once.

Our spidey senses are telling us this probably isn’t the last we’ll be seeing of Ava. Who’s ready for a Legally Blonde remake?

On the same day Reese Witherspoon's book club announced it's 101th pick, the actress and entrepreneur excitedly shared she's also co-writing a book with Harlan Coben! I don't know what readers across America have done to deserve this, but we welcome the news with open arms. Reese has a keen eye for choosing invigorating reads — and turning them into fantastic projects beyond the page — so it totally makes sense she's putting her experience to good use by partnering with one of the world's creative mystery and thriller book authors.

Here's everything we know about one of the best pieces of news to come out of 2025.

Where did Reese Witherspoon share her book announcement?

Instagram/reesewitherspoon

Reese Witherspoon shared the news with eager fans on Instagram by posting a photo of herself smiling next to Harlan Coben. Based on their wide grins, they seem eager to be able to share this secret. We're only calling it that because there's no way we could've predicted Reese would be one-half of a writing duo next year!

She said, "To say I am a fan of Harlan’s body of work is a massive understatement… the fact that he found my idea for this thriller intriguing enough to want to partner with me on it as co-author is a dream becoming a reality," (via The Hollywood Reporter). Harlan followed up with, "Be it acting, producing, creating and even book-club selecting, Reese’s instincts about storytelling across all media are unrivaled."

Authors Lucy Foley and Stacy Lee both expressed excitement with both of them expressing how much they "can't wait to read" the upcoming book.

What's the book about?

Since the book won't be published until next fall, details aren't readily available. We can suspect that it'll be a mystery or thriller book based on Harlan Coben's previous body of work. Still, we can't wait to devour what's sure to be a gripping story!

How long has Reese Witherspoon been working on her book?

Reese Witherspoon held Hello Sunshine's Shine Away event over the weekend where she dished about her upcoming book with Harlan Coben. "I had the idea two years ago and then I approached Harlan Coben probably eight months ago and I was like, ‘Am I crazy?’ He said, ‘This is a really good idea Reese,’ so I knew I was onto something," she told the attentive audience (via The Hollywood Reporter). Eventually, Reese and Harlan "started brainstorming together" which resulted in them co-writing the book together.

Though she's shocked Harlan "agreed" to co-write the book with her, Reese trusts Harlan's judgement and creativity because she feels "he's an incredibly accomplished writer." According to her, it's been "really fun to collaborate" together.

Is Reese and Harlan's book available for preorder? 

Amazon

Sort of! The official cover for Reese and Harlan's book hasn't been released yet, so fans will have to imagine what to expect in the mean time. You can preorder it now if you're not one to judge a book by it's cover!

How many books has Harlan Coben written?

If you grew up on fantasy books, you’ve probably dreamed of taking classes at Hogwarts and escaping to Narnia more times than you can count. But for the niche group of The Magic Faraway Tree readers who wish they could visit the Land of Birthdays in real life, living out your fantasies isn’t such a faraway concept anymore — Enid Blyton’s classic British children’s series is officially being adapted for the big screen!

The Magic Faraway Tree is an upcoming family adventure film about three children who climb a magical tree, meet the wonderful creatures who live inside, and travel to fantastical lands. It’s the kind of movie that will give you alllll the nostalgic feels even if you didn’t grow up on the books (though its absolutely stacked cast probably did!). The film is currently in production, with principal photography having started in June.

Here’s everything we know so far about The Magic Faraway Tree movie.

Your First Look At Nicola Coughlan In 'The Magic Faraway Tree'

Parisa Taghizadeh/Courtesy of Neal Street Productions and Elysian Film Group

Nicola Coughlan is in her fairy era, and this first look at Nicola as Silky in The Magic Faraway Tree is just as, well, magical as I hoped. Just a glimpse of her long blonde hair and those stunning eyes pique my curiosity. And TBH, where Nicola leads, I follow.

What is the main plot of The Magic Faraway Tree?

Amazon

The Magic Faraway Tree Plot

When the Thompson family moves to the English countryside, the three children — Joe, Beth, and Frannie — “discover a magical tree and its extraordinary and eccentric residents, including treasured characters Moonface, Silky, Dame Washalot, and Saucepan Man," according to Variety. When they reach the top of the tree, the children "are transported to spectacular and fantastical lands and, through the joys and challenges of their adventures, the family learns to reconnect and value each other for the first time in years.”

When is the Magic Faraway Tree coming out?

The Magic Faraway Tree Release Date

The Magic Faraway Tree is currently filming, which means we could see it in the fall or winter of 2025. This would be the perfect movie for the holiday season!

​Who is starring in the movie?

The Magic Faraway Tree Cast

Joe, Beth, and Frannie’s actors have yet to be announced, but the adult cast is chock-full of familiar names. Andrew Garfield and Claire Foy are set to play the children’s parents, Tim and Polly. (The film’s screenwriter cheekily said, “I mean, even Enid Blyton might be impressed we got Spider-Man and the Queen.”) Nicola Coughlan will be playing a woodland fairy named Silky, and Rebecca Ferguson will be playing one of the film’s villains, Dame Snap.

Nonso Anozie, Jessica Gunning, Jennifer Saunders, and Dustin Demri-Burns are also in the cast.

Who is writing and directing the movie?

Joe Maher/Getty Images

Fans of the Faraway Tree series can breathe a sigh of relief — the film is in great hands. The Magic Faraway Tree’s screenwriter, Simon Fanaby, is no stranger to adapting beloved British children’s classics from page to screen. He’s one of the pens behind Wonka and Paddington 2, which is a great sign that The Magic Faraway Tree is sure to be as whimsical and fun as the books it’s adapting.

A less familiar name (unless you’re a fan of BBC’s Black Ops) is Ben Gregor, who has been tapped to direct the film. According to his talent agency, Gregor specializes in making comedies with visual flair. This writer/director combo is magical.

​Will The Magic Faraway Tree be a franchise?

Amazon

The Magic Faraway Tree seems to be a standalone film at the moment. The book series it’s based on is made up of four books total: The Enchanted Wood, The Magic Faraway Tree, The Folk of the Faraway Tree, and Up the Faraway Tree. Although the movie gets its name from the second book, its plot seems more similar to that of the first book. It’s very possible that the movie will incorporate all four books in one since plans for a franchise have yet to be announced.

I may be in my twenties, but I’ll happily be joining elementary schoolers at AMC on opening night when The Magic Faraway Tree hits theaters! Can't get enough of all things fantasy? Check out the latest Wicked movie news.

Scream 6 was one of the hottest movies of 2023, and we've been looking forward to Scream 7 since the credits started rolling! I'm super excited to see Neve Campbell return as Sidney Prescott, but it also looks like Friends star Courteney Cox is in talks to return to the slasher franchise, too. Here's everything we know about the new movie.

When is Scream 7 coming out?

Philippe Bossé/Paramount Pictures

Scream 7 Release Date

Scream 7 will hit theaters on February 27, 2026. This is an unexpectedly perfect release date because nothing sends a shiver down my spine like winter (and Ghostface of course).

Scream 6 was such a fun spring movie because outside of Halloween season, anytime around summer feels like the perfect time for a scary movie!

Is Sidney going to be in Scream 7?

Brownie Harris/Paramount Pictures

Scream 7 Cast

Yes, Sidney Prescott will be in Scream 7! “Sidney Prescott is coming back!!!!” franchise lead Neve Campbell says on Instagram. “It’s always been such a blast and an honor to get to play Sidney in the ‘Scream’ movies. My appreciation for these films and for what they have meant to me, has never waned. I’m very happy and proud to say I’ve been asked, in the most respectful way, to bring Sidney back to the screen and I couldn’t be more thrilled.”

The actress was not involved in Scream 6 due to salary inequity. "As a woman I have had to work extremely hard in my career to establish my value, especially when it comes to ‘Scream,'" she told Variety ahead of the sixth movie's release. "I felt the offer that was presented to me did not equate to the value I have brought to the franchise."

Who else is in the cast of Scream 7?

Brownie Harris/Paramount Pictures

In addition to Neve Campbell, we could also reportedly see Courteney Cox reprise her role as Gale Weathers, via Variety. However, we won't see onscreen sisters Melissa Barrera or Jenna Ortega in Scream 7. It was announced in November 2023 that Melissa would no longer star in the franchise following her posts on the Isreal-Hamas war, while Jenna's absence has been attributed to Wednesday season 2 scheduling conflicts.

What is Scream 7 going to be about?

Scream 7 Plot

We don't have an official plot for Scream 7 quite yet, but I'm feeling confident we'll see Sidney Prescott and (hopefully) Gale Weathers take down another Ghostface. Scream 6 co-writer Guy Busick has the sole writing credit on this new script, as well as Melissa Barrera's 2024 movieAbigail.

Is Scream 7 confirmed?

Brownie Harris/Paramount Pictures

Yes, Scream 7 is officially happening! After Scream 6 (which was released in March 2023) became the highest-grossing movie of the whole franchise, a sequel was announced in August of that year. Kevin Williamson, writer for the original 1996 Scream, will direct.
