I was already excited for Christopher Nolan's next epicafter hearing Tom Holland was involved — but then when we learned Zendaya, Anne Hathaway, Lupita Nyong'o, and even more of our favorite stars were going to costar? I didn't know I could feel so much excitement. Universal recently revealed that the new movie will be an adaptation of Homer's The Odyssey. And after Gladiator 2, the ancient world has never been hotter.

Here's everything you need to know about Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey cast before the new movie sails into theaters July 17, 2026.

#greenscreen okay but let’s talk about this CAST🔥🔥🔥 #oppenheimer #theodyssey #annehathaway #annehathawayedit #zendaya #tomholland #zendayatomholland #robertpattinson #lupitanyongo #christophernolan

Matt Damon

Matt Damon is known for roles in Good Will Hunting and Jason Bourne, and he just starred in Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer.

Tom Holland

In addition to the Spider-Man films, Tom Holland recently starred in The Crowded Room and Cherry, both on Apple TV.

Jon Bernthal

Jon Bernthal may be best known for The Bearright now, but he's more than just "Cousin." Bernthal's starred in many projects, including The Walking Dead, We Own This City, and King Richard.

Anne Hathaway

Anne Hathaway had a great 2024 with The Idea of You, and we'll see The Princess Diaries actress in Colleen Hoover's Verity movie soon!

Zendaya

We saw Zendaya in Dune 2 and Challengers last year, and in addition to joining The Odyssey cast, she'll return as Rue in Euphoria season 3.

Lupita Nyong’o

Lupita Nyong'o totally made us cry during The Wild Robot and A Quiet Place: Day One, and she'll probably do the same in The Odyssey TBH.

Robert Pattinson

Mickey17 and The Batman Part II are two of Robert Pattinson's upcoming movies, in addition to another job with Zendaya called The Drama.

Charlize Theron

Charlize Theron recently starred in FastX as well as Netflix's The School for Good and Evil and Marvel's Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

Who does Tom Holland play in The Odyssey?

While we have The Odyssey cast list, we haven't gotten confirmation on which roles the actors are playing...yet. (Although to be fair, we also don't know if this will be a classic adaptation or a reimagining). However, fans are already speculating who we'll see in each role!

I'd love for Robert Pattinson to star as Odysseus alongside Anne Hathaway as Penelope and Tom Holland as Telemachus. Zendaya would be amazing as Athena, while Lupita Nyong'o would definitely stun as Circe. Who knows — maybe we'll see some unexpected casting choices too! Charlize Theron as Zeus and Matt Damon as Poseidon? Yes please.

Who is the villain in The Odyssey?

There's more than one villain in The Odyssey, but one role that definitely stands out is Poseidon. The sea god does everything he can to prevent Odysseus from returning to Ithaca during his sea voyage. TLDR; this definitely isn't your average vacation cruise.

It looks like Sydney Sweeney loves an internet rabbit hole as much as we do. The Euphoria actress is producing and starring in a new movie from Warner Bros. inspired by a Reddit short story that had the internet buzzing. Keep reading for the full scoop on the movie, and the insane Reddit post that inspired it, called "I pretended to be a missing girl so I could rob her family."

Here’s everything we know about Sydney Sweeney’s new movie from Warner Bros., coming soon.

Sydney Sweeney's new movie isn't the first "creepypasta" Reddit adaptation.

The movie is based on a Reddit short story called "I pretended to be a missing girl so I could rob her family," written by Joe Cote in the r/nosleep forum on Reddit. The channel provides users the space to post spooky short stories from a first-person perspective — and to discuss all the posts like the stories are real.

This tale follows a drifter who decides to pose as a missing girl to trick and rob the girl’s family. But it doesn’t take long for her to realize she’s made a terrible mistake. Other "creepypasta" stories from a subreddit (which, according to Business Insider, is a term inspired by "copypasta," blocks of text that go viral and become memes) have been adapted for the screen like 2018's Slender Man movie, inspired by the character in the Something Awful internet forum.

This isn’t the first project Sydney Sweeney has produced — she worked behind the scenes on Anyone But You with Glen Powell and her horror flick Immaculate. She’s also an executive producer on BookTok adaptation The Housemaid, which is directed by Paul Feig and stars Brandon Sklenar and Amanda Seyfried alongside Sydney.

Alongside Sydney producing, we'll also get a script by Eric Roth, the Oscar-winning writer behind Dune and Forrest Gump. Stay tuned for the latest news on the I Pretended To Be A Missing Girl cast and release date as we receive updates!

e.l.f. No Budge Retractable Eyeliner

This is by far the best drugstore eyeliner out there. Designed with a convenient retractable (no-sharpen!) tip, it's super easy to take on the go for any touch-ups. Plus, the color payoff and wearability of each shade is insanely impressive.

Amazon

If you're looking for an eyeliner that, no matter the circumstances, does not budge, this $5 is the perfect pick-me-up. You can find it in a handful of different colors to suit your makeup needs.

Promising review: "I can’t believe I’ve been trying to make felt tipped eyeliners work for so long. Usually I put on felt tipped eye liner and it barely shows up, maybe my eye lids are watery or oily. So naturally within a hour or two it doesn’t even look like I’ve put on eye liner. This is not the case with this elf eye cream retractable liner. It actually shows up right away, it also lasts for hours. Even after 8 hours there was still some on my eyes, although I did need to re apply in some spots. It also didn’t smudge. For it to last at all and not smudge is amazing for me."

Amazon

Nivea Body, Face, & Hand Moisturizing Cream

Though some people may see this $10 tinned cream as truly "old school,"many others still hold it near and dear for its ability to moisturize and heal dry skin in need of nourishment.

Amazon

The thick, non-greasy formula is chockfull of provitamin B5 that really sinks deep into the skin. The best part is it's really gentle, so you can use it on your face, body, and hands.

Promising review: "Nivea is a great product. My parents always had a tin of it around. I've continued the tradition. It is a wonderful thick cream that moisturizes well. Great value for the price, as a little goes a long way. Softens rough skin."

Amazon

TONYMOLY Petit Bunny Lip Gloss

This adorable bunny-shaped lip gloss is enriched with vitamin E for soft lips and a pinch of pigment so your pout gets a nice wash of color. It comes in a convenient stick form that's super easy to travel with!

Amazon

Right now, 6 different shades of this gloss are on sale for $6 (originally $8). Snag one before the sale's over!

Promising review: "I am really happy with this product. The tint is very pretty, and not too pigmented. I am very picky about the texture of my lip glosses and lip balms and this one is lovely."

Amazon

Versed Sweet Relief Night Mask + Face Balm

B+C Affiliate Writer, Meredith, truly cannot get enough of this stuff from Versed. It's a thick, moisturizing face balm that really nails down the 'slugging' skincare trend without totally swamping your skin. It is fairly oily and shiny after one application, so she recommends using it only at night – and you'll wake up with a glowy complexion!

Amazon

Its $10 (was $18) formula is loaded up with bacuri and kokum butters and apricot kernel oil that are all dedicated to protecting the skin barrier. Though these ingredients may sound intimidating, the product is still wonderfully gentle overall for any skin type.

Promising review: "I have very sensitive skin and LOVE this as an overnight moisturizer. It's thick but a little goes a long way. The winter where I live is very dry. I use it every night before bed, my skin feels great in the morning! It's neutral smelling but I prefer that."

Amazon

Mielle Organics Rosemary Mint Strengthening Shampoo

This $7 (was $10) shampoo will set all your hair growth goals so right. It's made with rosemary and mint essential oils that help stimulate the scalp for better growth, along with biotin that ensures your locks don't lose moisture during the washing process. Snag the coordinating conditioner to get the full benefits (read an editor's review here)!

Promising review: "This shampoo is my favorite. It has a nice smell and gives my thinning hair a lot of volume and softness. Lathers well. Packaged well, no leaks. Hair loss has slowed down some. I will definitely continue to use."

Amazon

e.l.f. Cosmetics Glossy Lip Stain

This $6 (yes, $6!) lip stain is unlike most lip stains in the way that it boasts a fun, glossy formula. Where some leave-on lip stains may dry up and make your lips look crusty AF (hate that), this one nourishes your pout, all the while leaving a nice wash of color behind.

Amazon

This e.l.f. product stole the heart of B+C Affiliate Writer, Meredith, for its natural look, comfortable wear, and undeniable affordability. Its low price of $6 makes it so easy to try out the lip stain trend without going all-in! There are also so many shades to pick from, so you're sure to find one that suits you perfectly.

Promising review: "This was the first time buying any thing that was being called a lip stain. I didn’t want to spend a lot since I wasn’t sure if I would like them or if they worked the way people said they did. This goes on very easy and I have only used it a few times now, but it did last for a number of hours and did not come off when I ate or drink anything. I have thinner lips, but I like at this at least helps them show up more and when I don’t want to wear a lot of color, this is a soft neutral."

Amazon

Method Pure Peace Body Wash

This $8 body wash smells like heaven, truly. With notes of peony, rose water, and pink sea salt, it's perfectly feminine and clean and feels like a total treat in the shower or bath. Though fragranced, it's still gentle on the skin and provides a good amount of moisture after each use!

Amazon

This body wash from Method also boasts a unique biodegradable formula made with plant-based cleansers that contains zero parabens or phthalates to ensure healthy skin 24/7.

Promising review: "I was hesitant to buy this as I was not sure about how the scent would be. I am pleasantly surprised.
It has a simple rose smell, but it's mild and lacks that perfumey, cloying sort of smell that can happen with floral scents. Very simple, like I'm rubbing roses on myself. Not super strong, it lingers but doesn't feel like it's following you around all day either."

Amazon

Essence Lash Princess Mascara

This $5 mascara definitely doesn't feel like it's $5. It undeniably volumizes and lengthens your lashes in a few simple swipes, all without those pesky clumps you might expect from a more affordable product.

Amazon

The brush itself features an easy-to-use conic shape that lets you access the entirety of your lashes for a cohesive look, too!

Promising review: "What a little hidden gem this is. I first saw this on a you tube video and decided to try it. The bottle is adorable, but the contents will blow you away. It's probably the best mascara or one of the best that I have ever used. It was very inexpensive so even though the woman on the you tube video was saying how great it was, I wasn't expecting it to be all that great, but was still curious. I'm really glad I bought it, because it is the best mascara from a company no one probably even knows of because it is not mainstream. Buy it! I think you will love it!!"

Amazon

Cocokind Mymatcha All-Over Moisture Stick

Infused with caffeinated matcha, this one-of-a-kind $9 moisture stick is perfect for combatting everything from dry lips to tried under eyes. Its formula is 100% vegan and super gentle on the skin, so people of any skin type can try it out.

Amazon

The wide shape of this balm-like moisture stick allows you to cover a good amount of real estate on your face or any dry patches elsewhere. It has a very slight matcha-y scent, too, for all you matcha fiends out there!

Promising review: "I have used these moisturizing sticks since I was pregnant with my son 7 years ago. I used them all over my face in the harsh winter months working at a ski resort and now under my eyes as a sleepy mama to a toddler. Great for preventing windburn and easy for kids to use. I can throw this in my son’s book bag for school when he plays outside in -30 degree weather and don’t have to worry about it getting all over his hands or leaking. No funky ingredients. No synthetic fragrances. We love it."

Amazon

Wet Brush Original Detangler Hair Brush

The Wet Brush is a team favorite around here. It's gentle, lightweight, and oftentimes comes in the cutest colors and patterns to make our hair care routines more fun.

Amazon

If you're still using your old, ratty hair brush, the flexible bristles on the Wet Brush will feel like a total treat on your head. They help minimize breakage while still effectively detangling your locks. We're simply obsessed with this $7 rainbow colorway, too!

Promising review: "It glides through my hair effortlessly, detangling without pulling or causing breakage. The bristles are gentle yet effective, making it perfect for both wet and dry hair. Plus, the color is so pretty! If you struggle with knots or just want a great everyday brush, this one is a must-have!"

We just found the perfectdress for spring and summer, and not only does it come in a super trendy cut, it’s miraculously on sale at Target right now! We’re truly obsessed with this gem of a fashion find because it gives "quiet luxury” vibes for way less, is undeniably flattering, and can pair with practically anything.

Scroll on to discover the Target dress that’s a must-have for your spring and summer looks!

Target

Meet Wild Fable’s Drop Waist Mini Sundress: a sleeveless mini with a high neckline, low-cut back, and a drop waist (!), fit with some adorable buttons running down the front and cut from a lightweight, breathable rayon-linen fabric blend.

Target

This Target dress is truly nothing short of flattering. The high neckline, while considerably modest, is met with a low-cut back detail that balances your look out. Plus, the drop waist serves to elongate your torso for a stunning feminine effect.

Target

The mini length of this dress, combined with the breezy rayon-linen fabric blend it’s made of, makes it so suitable for the spring and summer months, where dressing for comfort should be the #1 priority – but, of course, this dress proves that you don’t have to sacrifice style for practically.

Target

The Wild Fable Drop Waist Mini Sundress is currently shoppable in three wonderful colorways: white, butter yellow, and blue gingham. All of the colors are simply so adorable for spring and summertime, since they can easily pair with other neutral accents or bolder pops of color! The sizing for the dress ranges from XXS to 4X, though several sizes are currently sold out online in certain colors.

Target

The Wild Fable Drop Waist Mini Sundress has earned 3.9 out of 5 stars from shoppers, where the feedback is a bit mixed. While some Target fans adore the dress, a few others note that the sizing is inconsistent. Here are some standout reviews to give you a glance at the bigger picture:

  • “I was so pleasantly surprised when I tried this on. I love the uniqueness of the style and pattern. I won’t even need to wear a bra with this but will probably opt for shorts underneath.”
  • “I got the dress in both extra small and double extra small (I'm 5'1" and 110 pounds) to see which fit better. The extra small was way too big, but the double extra small fit, though a little loose. Still, I really like the fit and the material—it’s great quality and the white isn’t see-through. Super cute overall!”
  • “This dress is very cute and comfy but the sizing is so inconsistent. I have the yellow one, which I got in store, in a small and it fits loosely but the white in a small was too tight. (I returned it and have the gingham one coming in a medium but I have a feeling it’s going to run too large like the yellow.) This is definitely a piece you’ll want to try on in stores.”

Target

Wild Fable Drop Waist Mini Sundress

We are still obsessed nonetheless, especially given the price of this dress. Typically sold for $30, it’s now on sale for Target Circle Week for just $21!

If you’re craving the weekly dramaGrey’s Anatomy season 21 regularly supplies outside of your weekly watch, Netflix is coming out with a show that aims to fill the void. Pulse, a medical drama series, follows the personal and professional lives of the doctors and staff at a Miami trauma center. Certainly Grey’s Anatomy-esque, if you ask me!

Here are all the details on Netflix’s newest medical drama Pulse, starring Willa Fitzgerald, Colin Woodell, and Justina Machado (and more!)

Check Out The ‘Pulse’ Trailer Now.

Now that’s how you do a trailer! A steamy workplace romance coupled with the drama and intensity of working in Miami’s busiest level 1 trauma center = a happy gal over here. From the trailer alone, I can tell this is a fresh take on the average medical drama, boasting more energy and intensity from its leading cast and script. As if I really needed another show to binge, I have a feeling I’ll binge this series fast.

What is the new series Pulse on Netflix?

Jeff Neumann/Netflix

The TLDR: A group of ER residents navigate medical crises and personal drama while dealing with a scandalous allegation at their Miami hospital. The longer, more detailed version, for those who are curious and want the full story: Danielle, who goes by Danny, is in her third year of residency and is unexpectedly promoted after the hospital’s chief resident, Dr. Xander Phillips, is suspended. Danny and Phillips must work together as word of their secret fling begins to spread around the hospital like wildfire. To add fuel to the fire — pun intended — a hurricane hits Miami, flooding the ER with trauma cases (sorry, that one was unintentional).

​Who else will be starring alongside Willa Fitzgerald?

Anna Kooris/Netflix

The Pulse cast has some truly awesome names, including:

  • Willa Fitzgerald as Danielle "Danny" Simms: Our seemingly fearless protagonist and leader who doubles as a third-year resident on Maguire Medical Center’s medical team.
  • Colin Woodell as Dr. Xander Phillips: Danielle’s beau and the chief resident at Maguire — aka her supervisor. Thank you, Danny, for the inevitable drama I know this relationship will cause. Hey, what can I say? It’s going to make for great TV!
  • Justina Machado as Natalie Cruz: Natalie's the chair of surgery and emergency medicine, who's over both administration and medicine.
  • Jesse Yates as Harper Simms: A second-year emergency medicine resident who just so happens to be Danielle’s younger sibling.
  • Jesse T. Usher as Sam Elijah: A third-year emergency medicine resident.
  • Jack Bannon as Tom Cole: A second-year surgical resident.
  • Daniela Nieves as Camila Perez: One of Danielle’s colleagues, also a third-year resident.
  • Chelsea Muirhead as Sophie Chan: A surgical intern.
  • Santiago Segura as Gabriel Moreno: An ER nurse and team player.
  • Ash Santos as Nia Washington: A Miami-Dade County EMT.
  • Néstor Carbonell as Dr. Ruben Soriano: The feared senior surgeon.
  • Arturo Del Puerto as Luis Dominguez: The ER’s Charge Nurse.
  • Jessica Rothe as Cass Himmelstein: A charming senior ER nurse.

​Where and when can I binge Pulse?!

Jeff Neumann/Netflix

The 10-episode series will stream exclusively on Netflix starting April 3, 2025.

​Where was Pulse filmed?

Netflix

Though set in the heat of Miami, Florida, Pulse was filmed 2,000 miles west in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Now, I’m fascinated and simultaneously excited to see how they’ve recreated the vibrant, beachy vibes of Miami using the desert landscape Albuquerque has to offer!

Pulse just proves that Medical Dramas Are SO Back. Here Are 21 You Can Stream Right Now!
