The Sheep Detectives premieres in NYC
The Sheep Detectives held its star-studded premiere last night at Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York City. Hugh Jackman, who stars as shepherd George, attended the event with his girlfriend Sutton Foster, alongside cast members Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Nicholas Braun, Regina Hall, Chris O’Dowd, Molly Gordon, Rhys Darby, and Brett Goldstein. The Amazon MGM Studios film follows George Hardy (Jackman), a book-loving shepherd who reads murder mysteries aloud to his flock—unaware that his sheep can understand every word. When George is found dead under mysterious circumstances, the flock sets out to solve the case themselves, venturing beyond their meadow for the first time and discovering that the human world is far more complex than it seems in fiction. The Sheep Detectives hits theaters May 8.
Roman Reigns becomes new heavyweight champ at WrestleMania 42
At WrestleMania 42, the “Tribal Chief” Roman Reigns once again proved why he thrives on the biggest stage in sports entertainment. In a hard-fought main event at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Reigns defeated CM Punk to capture the World Heavyweight Championship in a 34-minute battle of endurance and momentum shifts. Both men pushed each other to the limit, trading signature offense in and out of the ring. Punk nearly sealed the victory multiple times, including hitting a Go To Sleep and a dramatic top-rope elbow through the announcer's table. Reigns survived the onslaught and ultimately closed the match with back-to-back Spears to secure the pinfall. The win marked another defining WrestleMania moment for Reigns, reinforcing his status as one of the central figures of his era on WWE’s biggest stage.
Starship Troopers and Days of Our Lives actor Patrick Muldoon passes at 57
Patrick Muldoon has died at the age of 57, his manager confirmed. The actor was found unconscious on the bathroom floor of his Beverly Hills home by his girlfriend, Miriam Rothbart, after he had gone to take a shower. Paramedics were called to the scene but were unable to revive him. Born in San Pedro, California, Muldoon played football at the University of Southern California (USC) before beginning his acting career. His breakout role came as Austin Reed on the daytime soap opera Days of Our Lives, a character he originated in 1992 and portrayed until 1995. He later gained wider recognition for his work on Melrose Place and in the science fiction film Starship Troopers. Beyond acting, Muldoon was also the lead singer and guitarist for the band The Sleeping Masses. Just two days before his passing, he had expressed excitement on Instagram about a new project titled Kockroach, which was reportedly filming in Australia. He is survived by his partner, parents, sister, and extended family.
