Directed by Derek Cianfrance (Blue Valentine), the crime drama follows former Army Ranger Jeffrey Manchester (Tatum) who ends up in prison after robbing a string of McDonald’s restaurants by cutting holes in their roofs.

ABC’s late-night talk show ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ has been suspended indefinitely following Kimmel’s comments on the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

During his Monday, Sept. 15 episode, Kimmel said the following: “We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it.”

After Kimmel’s comments about Kirk’s assassination came under harsh criticism from the head of the Federal Communications Commission, Walt Disney-owned ABC said on Wednesday, Sept. 17, that it will indefinitely stop airing Jimmy Kimmel Live! A spokesperson for the network said in a statement: “‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ will be pre-empted indefinitely.”

The drastic move came after FCC chair Brendan Carr threatened to take action against ABC affiliates in the wake of Kimmel suggesting the Kirk shooting suspect was a MAGA Republican during a monologue earlier this week.

Nexstar Media Group Inc. had stated earlier on Wednesday that it would stop airing Jimmy Kimmel Live! on its 32 ABC affiliates. Andrew Alford, president of Nexstar’s broadcasting division, said: “Mr. Kimmel’s comments about the death of Mr. Kirk are offensive and insensitive at a critical time in our national political discourse, and we do not believe they reflect the spectrum of opinions, views, or values of the local communities in which we are located. Continuing to give Mr. Kimmel a broadcast platform in the communities we serve is simply not in the public interest at the current time, and we have made the difficult decision to preempt his show in an effort to let cooler heads prevail as we move toward the resumption of respectful, constructive dialogue.”

President Donald Trump took to Truth Social, writing, “Great News for America: The ratings challenged Jimmy Kimmel Show is CANCELLED. Congratulations to ABC for finally having the courage to do what had to be done. Kimmel has ZERO talent, and worse ratings than even Colbert, if that’s possible. That leaves Jimmy and Seth, two total losers, on Fake News NBC. Their ratings are also horrible. Do it NBC!!! President DJT”

Legendary actor, director and environmentalist Robert Redford has died at the age of 89.

Publicist Cindi Berger, Chairman and CEO of Rogers and Cowan PMK, confirmed the news of Redford’s passing in a statement to The New York Times and CNN: “Robert Redford passed away on September 16, 2025, at his home at Sundance in the mountains of Utah–the place he loved, surrounded by those he loved. He will be missed greatly. The family requests privacy.”

Redford Starred in such movies as Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Way We Were and All the President’s Men, and won an Academy Award for directing Ordinary People. The four-time Academy Award nominee and honorary Oscar recipient, was also the founder of the Sundance Film Festival.

Redford just recently reflected on his career in an Instagram post on his birthday, Aug. 18, writing: “Firstly, I want to thank my fans been with me through every step, from Butch Cassidy to Ordinary People, and your support has meant the world. Your love for my work keeps me grounded and grateful .. Breaking out in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid was huge my BAFTA win showed I could hold my own. Directing Ordinary People and winning an Oscar for Best Director was a dream come true. Founding the Sundance Institute in 1981, sparking the indie film movement, remains my proudest achievement .. Honors like the Presidential Medal of Freedom and my Time 100 nod reflect a life of storytelling and advocacy. Growing up working-class in Santa Monica, I faced setbacks flunking out of college, losing my mom young. I hustled through small TV roles, learned on Broadway, and took risks directing and building Sundance. Personal losses, like my son Scott’s death, taught me resilience. It was grit, passion, and a love for art that got me here .. I’m thrilled my films, from The Sting to A River Runs Through It, have moved you, sparked conversations, or brought comfort. Sundance has given new filmmakers a voice, and my environmental work has inspired some to care for our planet. Your support makes it all worthwhile, thank you for being part of my journey.”

Redford shares four children with his ex-wife Lola Van Wagenen: Scott (who died just two months after his birth in 1959 from SIDS), Shauna, James and Amy. Redford went on to marry Sibylle Szaggars in 2009.

Redford is survived by his wife, daughters Shauna and Amy and grandchildren.
