Father's Day binge guide: From the galaxy of ‘Andor' to the thrills of ‘Mission: Impossible'
'From the World of John Wick: Ballerina' Here's another franchise that's packed with the sort of adrenaline-pumping, stunt-heavy action that dads generally gravitate toward. A spin-off of the popular John Wick movies, Ballerina stars Ana de Armas as Eve Macarro, and in true Wick fashion, she's out for revenge. With solid action-movie credentials from standout roles in No Time to Die and The Gray Man , de Armas delivers balletic beatdowns with precision and style and even manages to hold her own against the Baba Yaga himself (yes, Keanu Reeves makes a cameo). Don't miss: Female action heroes: 8 women who redefined courage long before 'Ballerina' pirouetted in 'Fountain of Youth' Fountain of Youth , starring John Krasinski and Natalie Portman as sibling adventurers Luke and Charlotte Purdue, channels the spirit of Indiana Jones , National Treasure and even a bit of the early Mummy films through the lens of Guy Ritchie. Think: a daredevil hero, a brainy, voice-of-reason sister, a mythical artefact, a shadowy organisation sworn to protect it, a power-hungry villain—and yes, pyramids. If Dad's a fan of archaeological mysteries, globe-trotting adventures and slick action-comedy, then this one should be right up his alley. 'Shogun' If prestige series are more his thing, FX's award-winning Shogun , based on the 1975 historical novel by James Clavell, is essential viewing for Father's Day 2025. The performances are exceptional across the board, especially breakout star Anna Sawai's powerful portrayal of Lady Mariko. Populated by richly drawn characters and driven by a plot steeped in Japanese history, culture and political intrigue, this sweeping epic is as intellectually engaging as it is visually stunning. 'The Fall Guy' A glorious ode to stunt performers, The Fall Guy is a romantic-comedy remake of the classic '80s TV show. Ryan Gosling stars as Colt Seavers, a stuntman sidelined by an on-set accident who agrees to come out of retirement—not so much to double for Tom Ryder (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), Hollywood action-star-with-a-heart-of-lead, but to win back the heart of the film's director—and his ex-flame—Jody Moreno (Emily Blunt). With Gosling and Blunt's effortless chemistry and some of the most thrilling practical stunts in recent cinema, this film is a sure bet for dads looking for a lighthearted, fun action movie for Father's Day 2025. 'The Last of Us' HBO Max's The Last of Us is perfect for gamer dads or those drawn to post-apocalyptic storytelling. Based on the acclaimed video game of the same name, the series has been praised for its rich character development, emotional depth and immersive world-building. Starring Bella Ramsey and man-of-the-hour Pedro Pascal, it's fundamentally a story about survival and revenge, with their compelling father-daughter dynamic anchoring the emotional core. For dads, the themes of sacrifice, protection and retribution resonate deeply—delivering gut-wrenching moments of love, loss and quiet resilience amidst the chaos. 'Andor' The most grounded entry in the Star Wars universe, Andor —the prequel to Rogue One: A Star Wars Story —offers an unflinching look at what it takes to mount a rebellion. Shifting the focus from space warfare, it tells the stories of the people on the ground, revealing the harsh realities people face in the fight for freedom—the sacrifices, the compromises, the casualties. Critically acclaimed and often called the best in the Star Wars series, Andor delivers a gritty, nuanced narrative that should resonate with longtime fans and newcomers alike. 'The Pitt' Hailed for its attention to detail, medical accuracy and for capturing the physical and emotional toll of working in an ER, HBO Max's The Pitt , starring Noah Wyle as the stressed-out senior senior emergency attending physician on duty, is being called one of the best shows of the year and the most realistic medical drama to date. With its unrelenting pace and raw portrayal of what goes on in an emergency room, the series is like ER meets 24 . The 15-episode first season unfolds in real-time, documenting a single 15-hour shift. Gritty, harrowing and authentic, it pulls no punches in showing the chaos, tough decisions and profound humanity behind hospital doors.

You're going to LOVE Teresa Palmer's new TV project Mix Tape
There's busy. And then there's Teresa Palmer busy. The actor has an easy, breezy air about her that belies the fact she's got enough going on to make your head spin: back-to-back projects for two years, including working with Ryan Gosling, Emily Blunt, Russell Crowe and Liam Neeson, all while parenting five children and this year, balancing the demands of pregnancy. Palmer is the first to admit she made a conscious decision to 'bust my balls' and go at breakneck speed, so she can hit the brakes hard when her next child is born later this year. 'I was like, 'alright, I am just going to work back-to-back-to-back so that we can have another baby, and I can take time off, and still have stuff coming out,' she explains. 'But I have also been very selective with the projects I take — I won't take just anything.' There have been movies (Bruna Papandrea's Addition, The Fall Guy with Gosling and Blunt) and TV series (The Last Anniversary and The Clearing, with Miranda Otto), with more to come this year (action-thriller Bear Country with Crowe and the black comedy heist movie 4 Kids Walk Into A Bank with Neeson). Teresa Palmer announces she is expecting another baby, surrounded by her four children. Credit: @teresapalmer While Palmer agrees it was a lot, it was a means to an end that she's looking forward to. 'I knew that I was in this season of (work), so it was like, 'Alright, for the next 18 months, I am going to bust my balls and then I can have this baby, and take a breath, and focus on being a parent, and taking my kids to school every day,' she says. The next cab off the rank is her role in the Binge adaptation of Jane Sanderson's novel Mix Tape: a four-part miniseries about the teenage romance of Daniel and Alison in the 1980s, then picking up with them again as adults, played by Jim Sturgess and Palmer, living on opposite sides of the world. As kids, the young friends, who live in Sheffield in the north of England, fall in love and connect through the making of mix tapes. After a long period of estrangement, they find a way back to one another through music once more. Needless to say, the series boasts a killer late-80s soundtrack. It struck a chord when it made its debut at SXSW Film and TV Festival in Texas earlier this year, winning the coveted Audience Award in the TV Spotlight category. 'I am not surprised that people connect with it, because it's so nostalgic,' Palmer says. 'I think we dream of a simpler time, when we were making our lovers mix tapes, and burning CDs. 'It's that 'first love' feeling and there's nothing more intoxicating and more beautiful than those butterflies, and that intensity.' Teresa Palmer is starring alongside Jim Sturgess in Mix Tape, coming to Binge. Credit: Supplied Though much younger than the characters in the book — Palmer was born in 1986, three years before the series is set — Palmer still remembers playing mix tapes in her mum's Holden Barina before graduating to CDs, and her own car, a few years later. 'I had an external plug-in CD player from Cash Converters and a $40 Cash Converter sub-woofer,' she laughs. 'The car was a bright yellow Hyundai Accent, 2002, and I would crank Dr Dre, Eminem, and Snoop Dog with the windows down and drive up to my private Catholic school.' It's hard to imagine that Palmer — esteemed actress, podcaster, earth mother, Byron Bay resident and co-founder of the parenting blog Your Zen Mama — was ever a rebellious schoolgirl blasting rap music out of the windows of a canary-coloured car. But if there is one thing Palmer insists upon, it's being true to herself. Not long ago, she and her husband, director Mark Webber, relocated to Byron Bay, after splitting their time between Palmer's hometown of Adelaide and Los Angeles, where Webber's son is based. They're now in the process of planning their forever home on rural acreage outside of the town. Palmer says she owes her sanity these past few years to her steadfast commitment to herself to always 'keep things real' as a public figure, as she navigates motherhood and her acting career. She's always careful to be authentic online, sharing the grief of a miscarriage last year and intimate stories of her pregnancies through her blog. 'I would never be able to do all this without being myself,' Palmer explains. 'I am just so grateful, and so lucky that I am living this beautiful, dream life. But if I suddenly start being a version of myself online, and people start to be in a state of comparison with me, I just . . . I can't. I have just got to keep it real. Because I would go crazy if I wasn't like that.' Teresa Palmer, styled by Irene Tsolakas. Teresa wears: Common Hours top and Golden Goose jeans. Credit: JOHN TSIAVIS Binge But if Palmer has felt like she was in the eye of the storm the past couple of years, she's about to take that to a much more literal place — she's taking her family on a five-week caravan trip across the US, including her 'bucket list' destination of Tornado Alley. 'We are taking all the kids.' she says with a laugh. 'My stepson Isaac (who lives in America with his mother, actor and director Frankie Shaw) finished year 11 today, so he is coming with us. 'We'll all be in a 30-foot RV that my husband drives, going up through Texas, staying with the Van Der Beeks.' And yes, the Van Der Beeks that Palmer speaks of are the family of Dawson's Creek star James Van Der Beek, who has six children with wife Kimberly Brook. The older and younger versions of Alison and Daniel: (l-r) Teresa Palmer, Jim Sturgess, Rory Walton-Smith and Florence Hunt. Credit: Supplied Leanne Sullivan But 11 kids running around is not even where the chaos ends, Palmer laughs, because then they are driving north through the centre of North America known for tornadoes. 'I wanted to do Tornado Alley during tornado season; me and my son Forest are obsessed with Twister, and we watch Storm Stories. I think we have watched every single tornado documentary that has ever been released. 'It's our thing that we do together and he and I secretly want to see one, but also — not.' Palmer admits her husband isn't fully on board. '(He) is like, 'Do you want to be Helen Hunt (from Twister) or something?'' she says. 'I said, 'I just want to experience real weather', and Mark is like, 'Wow, that is some weird pregnancy craving'.' But when this flurry of work is finished, the bucket list item is ticked, the caravan is stowed and Palmer returns home to Byron Bay with her family, a new, slower pace awaits. And she's ready for that season, too.

BBC quietly adds Australian drama that left fans 'crying their eyes out'
UK viewers can now watch a 'masterpiece' drama based on a book written by the same author of Big Little Lies. Based on the 2005 novel of the same name by Liane Moriarty, the author of Big Little Lies and Nine Perfect Strangers, The Last Anniversary is a comedy-drama 'wrapped in a gripping mystery about family, motherhood and the women who define the generations that come after them'. The six-part series stars Teresa Palmer (The Fall Guy), Miranda Richardson (Good Omens) and Danielle Macdonald (The Tourist). Set on the fictional Scribbly Gum Island, it's been teased the setting is a 'place of many secrets'. After a young couple disappeared there decades earlier, true crime tourists flock to the island, however for three generations of women that call Scribbly Gum home, hold far more. When Sophie Honeywell (Teresa) inherits a house on the island, left to her by her ex-boyfriend's great-aunt Connie, it's the fresh start she's craving, despite the unwelcome reception she receives on arrival. Single and approaching 40, Sophie is intrigued by something else Connie left her – a promise that she might finally find the man of her dreams… To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video When the series was first released in Australia and the United States in March, one fan said it 'left them in tears'. In its review, The Guardian wrote: 'The tone of this gracefully crafted adaptation of Liane Moriarty's bestselling novel is tender and mysterious, imbued with a soft literary quality.' 'The mystery is mostly backdrop to a patient, lovely drama that delves into the complexities of family, motherhood, and relationships,' Common Sense Media shared. 'Sure, it's heavy on the symbolism and the drama isn't exactly nuanced or subtle, but fans of Moriarty's brand of storytelling should definitely find themselves well engrossed by the time the first hour is up,' The Post NZ added. More Trending This week the show was finally added to BBC iPlayer, with all episodes now available to watch. The BBC's head of programme acquisition Sue Deeks said the series was 'an entertaining drama full of vivid characters, comedy and romance, with a compelling mystery at its heart'. The Last Anniversary was co-produced by Nicole Kidman and also stars Helen Thomson (Colin from Accounts), Susan Prior (Animal Kingdom), Claude Scott-Mitchell (The Dry), Charlie Garber (Barons), Uli Latukefu (Young Rock) and Jeremy Lindsay Taylor (Force of Nature: The Dry 2).

Aaron Taylor-Johnson Omega Visit Sparks James Bond Speculation
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Aaron Taylor-Johnson fans think the actor is the next James Bond, thanks to a subtle hint posted to social media on Thursday. Newsweek reached out to Johnson's representative via email for comment. The Context It's been nearly four years since Daniel Craig's portrayal of Bond in No Time to Die, and the franchise has yet to find a successor. In February, Amazon MGM announced creative control of the hit films after reaching a deal with Bond custodians Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson, the Associated Press reported. Over the years, various actors have been rumored for the role, including Johnson, Theo James, Idris Elba, Henry Cavill and more. Past Bonds include Sean Connery, Roger Moore, Pierce Brosnan and Craig. Speculation surrounding Johnson once got so strong that the Bullet Train star addressed the hearsay during an interview with Rolling Stone UK in March 2024. "I can only really talk about the things I'm going to show and tell," he said. "So, The Fall Guy, Nosferatu, Kraven the Hunter. I'm here to promote those." The 34-year-old added: "I don't feel like I need to have a future drawn out for me. I feel like whatever's drawn out for me, I can f***in' do better."

Aaron Taylor-Johnson attends the "Kraven The Hunter" New York premiere at the AMC Lincoln Square Theater on December 10, 2024, in New York City. Inset: Daniel Craig attends the world premiere of "No Time to Die" at the Royal Albert Hall on September 28, 2021, in London. More Jamie McCarthy/WireImage;for EON Productions, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, and Universal Pictures What To Know On Thursday, luxury watch company Omega announced a collaboration with Johnson via Instagram, adding fuel to the Bond rumors. "OMEGA welcomes Aaron Taylor-Johnson to our watchmaking home in Bienne," the post read. "The actor and Golden Globe winner stepped into our watchmaking home for an exclusive tour, meeting the watchmakers behind our timepieces. #OMEGA #OMEGAMyChoice" Omega has had a long-standing partnership with the Bond films. According to the company's website, "Since 1995, James Bond has worn an OMEGA Seamaster in every film. Over the years, we have also created special tribute timepieces with features that honor 007 and his legacy of genre-defining movies." At the time of publication, the Instagram post had received more than 100,000 likes in 5 hours and had more than 540 comments. What People Are Saying Instagram user @julianheusschen, in a message with 664 likes: "Bro has to be the new James Bond at this point." @watchbie, in a comment with 312 likes: "Do I hear the 007 theme?" @hi_thisisace asked in a note with 215 likes: "is this a hint ?????" @thatonebondguy: "Hello Mr. Bond, we have been expecting you." @rocco_soranno added: "New James Bond?" @jordysanz07 shared: "New James Bond !!!!" @eefjedg posted: "JAMES BOND." @chipgobbler voiced: "Bond Confirmation." @charliesansom replied: "The biggest clue yet that he's going to be James Bond." Bond experts previously told Newsweek why Johnson would be ideal to play the character. Pop culture historian Roy Schwartz said: "He's got the right look to play Bond. He's pretty but rugged, and if you've seen Bullet Train, you know he looks good in a suit." Film and TV critic Tim Stevens said Johnson is the right age: "Taylor-Johnson wouldn't be the youngest 007. George Lazenby holds that record at 29. If he's Bond for 12 years, he'll still only be as old as Roger Moore was in his first go-round as 007." What Happens Next It's unclear when the next Bond will be announced.
