-Welp. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt reached a temporary summer custody agreement after a judge said she was in danger of losing primary custody of the kids unless she improved their relationship with their dad.

Ariana Grande wore a huge diamond ring to Wango Tango on June 2, suggesting her engagement to Pete Davidson happened even earlier than everyone thought.

Gwyneth Paltrow just gave the most GOOPy response when asked about planning her wedding: “I’m very busy so I’m actually not that involved in it. I have so much going on and I’m sort of outsourcing that.”

John Boyega has had enough of bad fans creating crazy conspiracy theories about why Kelly Marie Tran deleted her social media. First he replied to people, then he tweeted “You’re not entitled to politeness when your approach is rude. Even if you paid for a ticket!” Marry me.

Jada Pinkett-Smith’s Facebook’s talkshow Red Table Talk continues to be an exercise in oversharing. Willow revealed her introduction to sex was when she accidentally walked in on Will and Jada.

-According to Deadline, Matt Reeves wants to reboot Batman as a standalone franchise and replace Ben Affleck.

-When we left the theatre on Friday after seeing Ocean’s 8 I turned to my friends and said “so Cate Blanchett and Sandra Bullock‘s characters were totally gay for each other, right?” and everyone agreed. And it’s not just us who thought so! Even though I wish the subtext was more actual text, I love that everyone’s writing about their chemistry, like here, here and here.

Anthony Bourdain‘s Parts Unknown was scheduled to come off Netflix US on June 16, but they just announced it will remain.

-I tweeted a link to her twitter thread about it yesterday, but Mo Ryan compiled her thoughts on how TV has treated actresses over 40 this year into an excellent, stats-filled article for THR. I still can’t believe Mary McDonnell’s lead character was killed off Major Crimes just before the series finale and they took her name off the show’s credits in the final episodes — and she wasn’t warned that would happen ahead of time.

-The cast and creators of American Vandal talking about how they filmed nana’s party is pretty great.

-Speaking of TV look backs, Jesse Plemons and Cristin Milioti talk about their Black Mirror episode “USS Callister,” in which he plays an incel and she’s the feminist who takes him down.

-This recreation of The Office opening with a fluffy dog playing all the human parts really saved my entire day.

-Are you guys watching Dietland? I’m really, really digging what Julianna Margulies is doing.

-I don’t watch Suits so I don’t get it, but everyone one my Twitter TL was loving how shady this post apparently is.

-Many people have noticed that the Diplo-produced lead single from the Deadpool 2 soundtrack, “Welcome to the Party,” sounds a lot like a Kanye West song. Turns out, West thinks so too, tweeting “bro, I would have cleared my music.”

Mike Schur settled some debate about what really happened in The Good Place’s season two finale. I was so wrong.

-Also, my friend pointed out that The Good Place’s official Twitter account is only following 8 people — and that includes Rihanna and Anna Kendrick. What could that mean!??

-CBS is still going all in with their All Access subscription service. Kevin Williamson is re-teaming with The Vampire Diaries’ Paul Wesley for a new series.

-This is so inside baseball, but today’s AT&T-Time Warner mega-merger approval clears the way for Comcast to unveil a rival bid for Fox assets, which means the Fox/Disney merger may not be a sure thing after all.

Stan Lee‘s business manager was arrested on suspicion of filing a false police report.

Domhnall Gleeson and Ruth Wilson get moody in The Little Stranger trailer.

Keanu Reeves plays an American diamond trader in the Siberia trailer. Unfortunately this does not appear to be a rom-com in which he drinks his way through a wedding weekend with Winona Ryder, so I have very little interest…

Paul Wesley and Phoebe Tonkin Reunited?

-CW stars Paul Wesley and Phoebe Tonkin split last month after four years of dating, but it looks like they might be back on. This is some CW-levels of romantic drama. Way to stay on brand, guys!

-This profile on Elisabeth Moss includes lots of interesting tidbits, including the fact she memorized The Handmaid’s Tale’s frequent voiceovers so she could repeat them in her head when shooting those scenes so that the words would match her expressions, and that she signed on to the show for 5-7 seasons (which is troubling).

-Also, The Muse poses a good question: is it relevant that the star of The Handmaid’s Tale belongs to a secretive, allegedly oppressive religion?

Chris Pratt posted a deleted scene from Parks & Rec for TBT and now I want one every week.

-Also, Chris pranked a pet store by calling them and asking for advice on how to care for a Baby Groot.

Madonna is not a fan of Universal’s Blond Ambition biopic and she fired off a string of Instagram posts to let world to know. “Why would Universal Studios want to make a movie about me based on a script that is all lies???” she wrote in a now-deleted post. I’m guessing this means the producers won’t be asking to use her music in it?

-On the Tonight Show, Leslie Jones had a wild story for Dr. Phil and he had to figure out if it was true or false. Props to Dr. Phil for keeping a straight face when she starts talking about her date’s nuts…

-I was wondering why Emma Watson and Tom Hanks have been so quiet with promotion for The Circle, which opens this weekend. (Remember the weeks leading up to Beauty & The Beast? She was EVERYWHERE.) Turns out it’s because the movie is really, really bad.

Haim’s new video was directed by their mom’s former student — who happens to be Paul Thomas Anderson.

David Fincher is doing pal Brad Pitt a huge favour by agreeing to direct the World War Z sequel.

Keira Knightley and Andrew Lincoln filmed an adorable new Love Actually charity video inviting fans to visit them in London for “cuddles” and “a cup of tea.”

-It’s hard to judge the new season of Fargo because I’ve only seen one episode but I found it mind-numbingly boring, so I liked this article about how “prestige TV” is often  formulaic fare that’s serving you a Big Mac and convincing you it’s a steak.

-So Jason Segel is writing YA science fiction books now? Cool cool cool.

Scarlett Johansson and Tilda Swinton are in another white-washing controversy after being cast in Wes Anderson’s upcoming stop-motion film, Isle of Dogs.

Alison Brie plays a bad girl in the latest teaser for Netflix’s GLOW.

Alicia Vikander, Judi Dench and Cara Delevingne star in the new trailer for the period piece Tulip Fever.

Paul Wesley and Phoebe Tonkin Split

-Well, this timing could be better. Paul Wesley‘s show The Vampire Diaries is airing its series finale tomorrow — and he and Phoebe Tonkin just split up after four years of dating. This could get messy. Remember when she broke up with her Secret Circle costar and posted a photo of a destroyed painting he gave her with the caption “That felt good?” Yeah.

-Speaking of getting messy, Romain Dauriac is fighting Scarlett Johansson for custody of their 2-year-old daughter. He’s asked the actress to withdraw her divorce papers, while sources in her camp say the filing “was not a hostile act.”

Brie Larson very diplomatically confirmed that her no-clap reaction to Casey Affleck‘s win at the Oscars was intentional.  I love her.

-The reaction to the news that Jennifer Lopez is dating Alex Rodriguez seems to be “I hate him,” immediately followed by “makes sense, tho.”

Nicole Kidman insists she had to do her weird, seal-like Oscars clap to protect her diamond rings. Makes sense.

A Ryan Gosling impersonator managed to get on stage at a German award show and accept an award for La La Land.

-The more I read about The Flash/Supergirl musical crossover, the more excited I get for it. (I love that Rachel Bloom reached out to them to contribute a song and not the other way around.)

-Wait, Andrew Lincoln‘s character is still stalking Keira Knightley’s character in the Love Actually sequel? Even though she’s been married for 15 years? Not cool, bro.

Gillian Anderson and her BFF, journalist Jennifer Nadel, talk about menopause in the Lenny.

Samuel L. Jackson walked back his critique about British actors, saying wasn’t exclusive to Get Out but a wider indictment of a system.

-People watched ice melt for over an hour today just to discover that Game Of Thrones’ seventh season will premiere on July 16.

-NBC is reportedly urging Jimmy Fallon to get more political. Does anyone really want that though? Seems like after the hair ruffling, that ship has sailed.

-Deadpool 2 just cast Zazie Beetz as Domino. I loved her in Altanta and Easy.

-This is an interesting take on Iron Fist’s dragging: 99% of its bad reviews are coming from white critics.
