‘3:10 to Yuma': Masculinity Is Real, Machismo Is Fake
Through his picture-perfect Western '3:10 to Yuma' (2007), director James Mangold is saying that children, women, and men who shelter beneath the shade of subtle masculinity ought to be grateful, not hanker after the spectacular but shallow alternative.
Drought and debt force one-legged Civil War veteran and small-time rancher Dan Evans (Christian Bale) to join a posse. They're out to find and put crooked but charming outlaw Ben Wade (Russell Crowe) on the 3:10 train heading to prison in Yuma. While Evans limps through this real-world manhunt, his wife Alice (Gretchen Mol), younger son Mark (Benjamin Petry), and older son William (Logan Lerman) find themselves in a manhunt of a different sort.

Is ‘1883' returning for season 2? Everything we know so far
By Aman Shukla Published on June 21, 2025, 17:30 IST Last updated June 21, 2025, 10:38 IST The Yellowstone prequel 1883 took audiences by storm with its gripping tale of the Dutton family's treacherous journey across the American frontier in the late 19th century. Released in 2021, the miniseries, created by Taylor Sheridan, starred Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, Isabel May, and Sam Elliott, earning praise for its gritty storytelling and stellar performances. Fans have been clamoring for news about a potential 1883 Season 2, but is it happening? Here's everything we know so far about the future of this beloved Western drama. Has 1883 Season 2 Been Confirmed? Straight up, there's no official word on 1883 Season 2. Taylor Sheridan, the genius behind the Yellowstone universe, called 1883 a '10-hour movie' with a proper ending, which kinda screams 'one and done.' Back in early 2022, Paramount+ teased 'more episodes,' getting everyone's hopes up, but then they pulled a U-turn. Instead, Sheridan's been pouring his energy into other spinoffs like 1923 and the upcoming 1944 . So, yeah, the odds aren't looking great for a second season. Potential Release Date for 1883 Season 2 Since 1883 Season 2 hasn't been greenlit, any release date is speculative. The first season went from announcement to release in about a year, so if Paramount gave the green light in 2025, we'd likely see production kick off by early 2026. Filming in those wild, open landscapes takes time, so we're talking late 2026 or early 2027 at the earliest. Patience, folks. What Could the Plot of 1883 Season 2 Be? A second season could focus on James and Margaret Dutton's efforts to establish the Yellowstone Ranch in Montana, facing challenges like harsh winters, conflicts with local tribes, or rival settlers. Alternatively, the story could explore the next generation, with young John Dutton Sr. taking center stage. Elsa's narration could provide continuity, tying the season to the broader Yellowstone timeline. Ahmedabad Plane Crash Aman Shukla is a post-graduate in mass communication .

Andrew Durand, nominated for Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Musical for his role in "Dead Outlaw," poses on the Tony Nominees' red carpet on May 8. The show is closing on June 29. File Photo by Angelina Katsanis/UPI | License Photo June 21 (UPI) -- The New York stage musical, Dead Outlaw, has announced it will play its final performance on June 29. The show -- which has music and lyrics by David Yazbek and Erik Della Penna -- opened at Broadway's Longacre Theatre on April 27. David Cromer directed the production and Itamar Moses wrote the book. "Elmer McCurdy was an ambitious, turn-of-the-20th-century outlaw whose death at the hands of a Western posse ended a life of failed crime and alcoholism and began a brilliant career as a mummified side-show attraction that traveled the USA for decades," a synopsis said. Even legends get laid to rest. Join us at the Longacre before #DeadOutlawMusical plays its final performance on Broadway June 29. DEAD OUTLAW on Broadway (@deadoutlawmuscl) June 20, 2025 "By the time this journey ended, his name had been forgotten and his desiccated body was hanging in a house-of-horrors ride at an amusement park in Southern California, spray-painted a day-glo orange. Then one day, a grip for the Six-Million Dollar Man TV show jostled what he thought was 'just a dummy' and an arm fell off, revealing a human bone and beginning a hunt for the origins of this enigma." At the 2025 Tony Awards, the show was nominated for Best Musical, while cast members Andrew Durand, Jeb Brown and Julia Knitel were mentioned in the acting categories. Dead Outlaw was shut out, however, winning none of the races it competed in. A version of the show will be released as an Audible Original in October.
