Big changes are coming to Chicago Fire, beginning with Chief Wallace Boden’s exit.
Actor Eamonn Walker played Boden for 12 seasons but has ended his run as a series regular.
Boden got a huge promotion within the Chicago Fire Department, so he has had to move on from Firehouse 51.
A new man fills Boden’s shoes during the Chicago Fire Season 13 premiere.
Teasers for the One Chicago return hint that drama is ahead during the transition.
Luckily, the show has added a great actor who can hold his own.
The Chicago Fire cast has a new chief
Actor Dermot Mulroney joins the cast as Chief Dom Pascal on Chicago Fire Season 13. Dermot is a series regular. This means he will be featured in nearly every episode.
As previously reported by Monsters and Critics, Chief Pascal worked in Miami for the past decade as a chief.

Now that the fall season premiere season is finally upon us, I am practically buzzing with excitement.
It’s difficult to contain myself because that means Chicago Fire Season 13 is right around the corner!
Last season’s finale was rife with cliffhangers and jaw-dropping moments that have had all of us reeling since May. We’re more than ready to dive back in.
(NBC/Adrian S. Burrows)
Before we do, I’ve been thinking about characters I’m hoping to see more of in the coming season.
Season 12 was a condensed installment, consisting of only 13 episodes instead of the usual 22.
The return of a full season means we’ll hopefully have more time to spend with some of the characters, developing their individual storylines in a way that there wasn’t time for last year.

The tragedy of being the most successful person on a job is that all eyes are trained on the star. For celebrities and filmmakers, that attention and scrutiny increases tenfold due to the nature of their profession. When it comes to Hollywood in the 1990s, Julia Roberts happened to be the most in-demand A-lister after the actress’s interminable acclaim after Pretty Woman.

Soon after, Roberts’ magical reputation spread like wildfire across Hollywood with filmmakers wanting to work with her in every upcoming project. Fortunately for her, the release of Pretty Woman in 1990 was immediately followed by a role opening up in Steven Spielberg’s Disney fantasy adventure film, Hook.

With filming underway on Chicago Fire season 13, we knew it was only a matter of time before behind-the-scenes photos made their way online giving us our first look at Dermot Mulroney as Chief Dom Pascal. While it might have taken a bit longer than we expected for those first-look photos to arrive, we now have our first look at the man coming to 51 to replace Chief Boden.
In the first of two new photos posted by the official account for Chicago’s Franklin Park Fire Department, the on-duty members of the Franklin Park Fire Department are all smiles as they pose with Mulroney and returning cast members Daniel Kyri (Ritter), Miranda Rae Mayo (Kidd), Randy Flagler (Capp), Hanako Greensmith (Violet), Jake Lockett (Carver), and Joe Minoso (Cruz).

“I have always hated weddings, although I do love funerals. But when you get older … I have seen so many problems that gay couples face, so it’s really more about forward-thinking, as we have been together for a long time now,” he explained.
“And I don’t know how long I’m going to last. Well, being tall, I’ve never seen a 95-year-old 6ft 5in person. You just never know what’s going to happen.”
He and Henrique married at London’s Camden Town Hall, followed by a meal at local Italian restaurant Ciao Bella.

Chicago Fire fans will see a new face at Firehouse 51 in the fall.
Battalion Chief Wallace Boden said his goodbyes during the Season 12 finale, opening the door for some fresh stories.
Boden felt he needed to take a higher position in the Chicago Fire Department to help the city, and that’s exactly what he did.
Actor Eamonn Walker takes a step back from being a series regular to play a character who appears sporadically.
Boden’s character treatment on Chicago Fire is similar to Matthew Casey (played by Jesse Spencer), who is off doing his own thing, but stories can intertwine later.
Chicago Fire fans will miss seeing Boden at Firehouse 51 every week, and change is hard. But that’s what happens on shows that last this long on television.

The always booked and busy Dermot Mulroney (“My Best Friend’s Wedding”) has joined the cast of NBC’s “Chicago Fire,” the network announced on Thursday. Mulroney will portray Chief Dom Pascal during the upcoming 13th season of the popular drama series.
Although storyline details were not released at press time, Deadline reports through sources that the character is described as an active member of the Chicago Fire Department who previously spent the last decade as a fire chief in Miami, Florida. Now, as the new leader of 51 following the exit of Battalion Chief Wallace Boden (Eamonn Walker), the generally cheerful Pascal, who works well under pressure and whose leadership style differs from Boden’s, finds himself not only dealing with a new job but the realities of being estranged from his wife.

Chicago Fire is bringing a new leader into Firehouse 51.
Dermot Mulroney is joining the long-running NBC series for its upcoming 13th season, which is set to premiere on Sept. 25. He’ll play Chief Dom Pascal in the series.
Other details about the character are being held back for the time being. The show’s fire house is potentially in need of a new chief after Eamonn Walker, who played Chief Wallace Boden for all 12 previous seasons, departed as a series regular at the end of last season. Boden was promoted in the show’s storyline, leaving open the possibility for Walker to return as a guest star.
On his way out, Boden told David Eigenberg‘s Christopher Herrmann that he was Boden’s choice to be the new chief, potentially setting up some conflict as the new season begins. Along with Eigenberg, returning castmembers include Taylor Kinney, Miranda Rae Mayo,...

Welcome to Firehouse 51, Dermot Mulroney! The My Best Friend’s Wedding star has been cast in the series regular role of Chief Dom Pascal in Chicago Fire Season 13. Dom, according to the original report, prior to Mulroney’s casting, did work in the Cfd at the start of his career but has been a chief in Miami for the past decade. He’s a cheerful person who works well under pressure. His leadership style differs from Wallace Boden’s (Eamonn Walker). Season 12 ended with Boden taking a promotion to Deputy Commissioner, and he’d told Christopher Herrmann (David Eigenberg) that he wanted him to replace him. But less than a month after the finale, it was reported that the NBC drama was casting this new chief—and as Eigenberg told TV Insider at the Television Critics Association summer press tour, it makes sense because Herrmann can’t actually take over for Boden,...

Mulroney, who recently starred in Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell’s “Anyone but You,” will play Chief Dom Pascal in the NBC procedural’s upcoming season.

Emma Roberts knows that her new Prime Video movie, “Space Cadet,” is an any easy target for critics and cynics.
“It’s earnest,” she says on this week’s “Just for Variety” podcast. “And people are probably going to make fun of that, but it’s like, you know what, whatever. I think that it’s better to be earnest and do your best and be proud of what you do, no matter the reception.”
Roberts stars in the film, written and directed by “Purple Hearts” writer Liz W. Garcia, as Rex, a bartender who decides to pursue her childhood dream of becoming an astronaut. When she is accepted into NASA’s highly competitive astronaut-training program, things go sideways after learning that her best friend (“Hacks” actor Poppy Liu) had embellished her application.

Since Justin Timberlake’s June 18 Dwi arrest in Long Island, New York, some of the “SexyBack” singer’s quotes have resurfaced for better or for worse, but mostly worse. Among them is one in which the Grammy winner admitted to often getting a bad case of road rage.
Justin admitted to being an ‘a**hole’ behind the wheel in 2006
18 years prior to being charged with driving while intoxicated after reportedly blowing a stop sign and driving on the wrong side of the road in the Hamptons village of Sag Harbor, New York, the Nsync alum touched on his “road rage.”
Timberlake picked up his interviewer in a black Porsche 911 convertible outside Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles, California, as part of a 2006 GQ cover story.

Despite being hailed by Martin Scorsese as one of the best Italian films of the 1990s, Cemetery Man is criminally underseen. Also known as Dellamorte Dellamore, the 1994 cult classic has been hard to come by in the US since Anchor Bay’s 2006 DVD went out of print, but Severin Films has revived it with a 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray edition.
Dario Argento protégé Michele Soavi directs from a script by Gianni Romoli, based on the 1991 novel Dellamorte Dellamore by Tiziano Sclavi — itself a precursor to Sclavi’s influential Italian horror comic Dylan Dog. Rupert Everett (My Best Friend’s Wedding), on whom the Dylan Dog character was visually based, takes on the lead role as Francesco Dellamorte.
As he explains in the noir-esque opening narration, Dellamorte is the watchman for a small town cemetery wherein “some people, on the seventh night after their death, come back to life.” He and his slow-witted but genial assistant,...

Written by Richard Curtis and directed by Roger Michell, the film tells of a famous movie actress named Anna Scott who falls in love with a small-town England bookstore owner named William Thacker. Released 25 years ago in May 1999, “Notting Hill” was a major box office success, grossing $364 million worldwide on a $42 million budget. Read on for more about the “Notting Hill” 25th anniversary.
The nation’s critics gave mostly positive reviews to “Notting Hill,” unusual for a studio romantic comedy. Derek Elley in Variety wrote, “[The film] has buckets to spare of that rarest screen commodity — genuine, engaging charm — plus a cast and production values that fully deliver.” Wesley Morris in San Francisco Examiner said, “Director Michell isn’t content to rest on his stars’ slapstick laurels, mining instead the more sophisticated if subversive socio-romantic pratfalls in Curtis’ script.

The list of movies is only guaranteed to be available until the end of June, but until then Apple TV+ customers can watch some true classics.
Apple TV+ is continuing to step out of its wheelhouse and try something new in 2024. At the start of March, the streamer imported a wide selection of movies from various Hollywood studios, marking the first time in its history that Apple TV+ had added on a substantial number of non-original titles. Those films were only available for a limited time, some as short as a few weeks, but it proved popular enough for the platform to add more in April. Now, as first reported by 9to5 Mac, Apple TV+ is rolling out another wave of licensed films as it tries to determine which ones its audience are responding to the most.

The recent success of Zendaya’s Challengers has proven people’s interest in the theme of love triangles doesn’t need to be rekindled.
The movies, which explore the romances involving three different personalities, tend to attract the audience with their intricate love lines and unexpected twists, with the final one intended to break the triangle.
Here are 5 of the most remarkable love triangle films, which are available for streaming online.
Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008)
Where to watch: Prime, Apple TV+
First comes Woody Allen’s feature, which is very reminiscent of Challengers due to its similar vibe of the youth’s passion and heated romance. The plot centers on Scarlett Johansson’s Cristina, meeting in Barcelona the handsome artist Juan Antonio, who shares her attraction to him, though being still enamored of his ex-wife María Elena.

Anyone But You is getting a lot of attention from fans and especially industry specialists who are now just finding out that rom-coms can still make money at the box office. While the raunchy romantic comedy by the director Will Gluck (Friends with Benefits) isn’t exactly a masterpiece or an instant classic, it gives the viewers some much-deserved escape and a fun story, that they don’t have to wear 3D glasses for.
Starring Sydney Sweeney (Euphoria) and Glen Powell (Top Gun: Maverick), Anyone But You revolves around Ben and Bea, who meet each other by chance and have an amazing first date unfortunately that doesn’t last long, and both of them part ways but the kicker comes when after some time both of them unexpectedly find themselves at a destination wedding in Australia, and because of unexpected circumstances they decide to pretend to be a couple.

Anne Hathaway isn’t against the idea of a streaming-only release, but she still can recognize box office potential when she sees it.
The Oscar winner stars in and produces “The Idea of You,” which will have a streaming only release on Prime Video on May 2. Hathaway told Variety that while she is still excited that the romantic drama will reach a wide audience on the platform, she knows that the film would fulfill a missing target in theaters.
“I’ve never had a movie this size be released [exclusively] on streaming, so I’m not really in a place to answer that question,” Hathaway said when asked about her take on whether or not streaming only was beneficial to this feature. “Part of me is excited that such a wide audience is going to have instant access to it.

Despite their rom com-heavy résumés, Anne Hathaway and actor-turned-director Michael Showalter had never met prior to collaborating on the May-December love story “The Idea of You,” which bows May 2 on Amazon Prime Video. Unless you count that one time at Beverly Hills’ Gucci Osteria, which in 2022 was the site of a dinner party to celebrate Jessica Chastain’s Oscar nomination for the Showalter-directed film “The Eyes of Tammy Faye.”
“I wanted to talk to Anne, but I was too embarrassed,” Showalter recalls of the soiree. “The path of least resistance is to just not talk to anybody.” Adds Hathaway with a chuckle: “I couldn’t figure out how to breach my wall of shyness.”
Months later, Hathaway conquered her timidity when she recruited Showalter to co-write and direct “The Idea of You,” in which the star of “The Devil Wears Prada” and “The Princess Diaries” portrays a 40-year-old single mother...

When Ilana Wolpert was studying English literature at the prestigious Duke University, she never imagined that one of her first loves – Shakespeare – would lead directly to writing R-rated movies.
But the writer found her life changed when she took a screenwriting class in her senior year, and her love for the classics led her to adapt Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing into a contemporary rom-com. The enemies-to-lovers romance became Anyone But You, and it's coming to streamers this Tuesday.
What's It About?
Ben and Bea meet in a coffee shop and form an instant connection. They spend a perfect day together – but the next morning their wires get crossed, their defenses go up, and they both blame each other for the relationship failing.
Six months later, Bea's sister is getting married. Ben's connection to the family means that they end up on the same flight, and start pushing each other's buttons right away.

Born in 1935 in Ogdensburg, New York, Walsh was raised in Vermont. He kicked off his acting career in typical fashion, with guest roles in TV series in the 1960s and 70s, but unlike some of his peers, he continued to juggle big and small screen gigs throughout his life. He had a personal credo about the work: "I approach each job thinking it might be my last, so it better be the best work possible. I want to be remembered as a working actor. I’m being paid for what I’d do for nothing."
Cinematically, he got his start via uncredited roles in the likes of Midnight Cowboy,...

Very sad news today as it’s been reported that M. Emmet Walsh has died at the age of 88. No matter the size of the role, the prolific character actor always made a unique impression throughout his long career, which spanned six decades.
M. Emmet Walsh is best known for playing Bryant in Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner, the captain of the Los Angeles Police Department who tasks Deckard with tracking down the replicants at the beginning of the film. He told THR that the cast and crew weren’t quite sure what the make of the movie when they first saw it. “I don’t know if I really understood what in the hell it was all about,” Walsh said. “We all sat there and it ended. And nothing. We didn’t know what to say or to think or do! We didn’t know what in the hell we had done!

M. Emmet Walsh, a veteran character actor who appeared in more than 150 films including “Blade Runner,” “Blood Simple” and “Knives Out” and played Dermot Mulroney’s dad in “My Best Friend’s Wedding,” has died.
His manager Sandy Joseph confirmed that he died Tuesday in Vermont. He was 88.
In Ridley Scott’s 1982 “Blade Runner,” Walsh was Harrison Ford’s LAPD boss, while he played the vicious private detective Loren Visser in the Coen brothers’ directing debut “Blood Simple.” Wearing a sickly yellow suit, Pauline Kael said he was the film’s “only colorful performer. He lays on the loathsomeness, but he gives it a little twirl — a sportiness.”
His other roles included the corrupt sheriff in the 1986 horror film “Critters” and a small role as a security guard in “Knives Out.”
Walsh appeared in a string of memorable 1970s films, including “Little Big Man” with Dustin Hoffman, “What’s Up, Doc?” with Ryan O’Neal and Barbra Streisand,...
