The Sundance Film Festival is still deliberating about where to move in 2027, but in the meantime, the 2025 festival will go on in Park City and Salt Lake City, Utah. On Wednesday, the festival announced its Features and Episodic lineup, with a rich selection of independent projects that feature a lot of big names.

There’s a new champion on Dancing With the Stars. And Joey Graziadei knows just how he wants to celebrate his stunning victory!

In case you missed it, Joey and partner Jenna Johnson took home the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy on Tuesday night’s DWTS finale.

The pair had consistently impressed the judges throughout the season. So it came as no great surprise when they cemented their victory with a triumphant Cha Cha.

Still, Joey and Jenna were clearly taken aback by their win. And it seems that Joey plans to spend his holiday weekend in a state of inebriated bliss.

Spoiler Alert! This post contains details from the Season 33 finale of Dancing with the Stars, including who wins the mirrorball trophy.

Dancing with the Stars has officially crowned a Season 33 winner.

No one went home last week, so five couples were competing in Tuesday night’s lengthy three-hour finale filled with reflections on the last nine episodes and some fun performances from the pros. Before we get to the winner, let’s go through each couple’s final two performances and see how they fared.

First up were the redemption dances, where the judges give each contestant an opportunity to revisit a style of dance they didn’t exactly nail, so they can showcase their improvements.

Dancing with the Stars semi-finals are the end of a season of ups and downs for many of the show’s celebrity competitors. With only 5 stars remaining, it’s down to the wire as the celebrities and their pros perform two dances that could be their lifeline to the finals or the end of the road. Tonight, one of them is going home one week short of the finale.

These fan favorites will be in the bottom two at the close of the semi-finals

Five celebrities are left to compete during season 33 of Dancing with the Stars. The series semifinals challenge them to dazzle the judges and viewers with mirrorball-worthy performances in ballroom and Latin styles.

However, there will be only three top performers of the five. Goldderby predicts who will be at the top of the leaderboard and the celebrities who won’t make the finale.

It's Halloween Week on Strictly Come Dancing! And that means plenty of frightful routines full of vampires, zombies, and supervillains. Yes, it's a favorite of the Strictly audience and it's always a delight to see the commitment of the costume department to bring the spooky show to life.

The only thing that wasn't frightful, however, was the quality of dancing. This was undoubtedly one of the highest-quality Halloween weeks in Strictly Come Dancing history, as we opened with some strong routines and kept that energy up right until the end. In fact, the lowest score was 26, meaning that there were just 12 points between those couples and the ones at the top with 38. Quality!

But who shone tonight in the Strictly Spooktacular? Here are all the Strictly spoilers, results, and scores from the Week 6 Saturday Night show and all of the events that took place on the dancefloor.

Anna Delvey is holding nothing back in the of her elimination from Dancing with the Stars.

After getting the boot from this competition early last week, Delvey actually told NBC News that she believes she was treated unfairly by executives and producers.

“I feel that the show so obviously used me to drive up the ratings, that they never had any plans to give me any chance to grow and only cared about exploiting me for attention,” the convicted felon told this outlet last Friday.

This, of course, is especially rich coming from Anna Delvey.

As we just cited, she is a convicted felon who is currently under house arrest.

Delvey was convicted in 2019 by a New York state court of three counts of grand larceny, one count of attempted grand larceny and four counts of theft of services,...

Good Deed Entertainment has acquired worldwide rights to Hangdog, a comedy movie starring Desmin Borges and Kelly O’Sullivan.

Director Matt Cascella’s feature is scheduled for release via digital platforms on Oct. 25, which will be preceded by advance theatrical screenings in select cities. Rounding out the cast are Barbara Rosenblat, Steve Coulter, Catherine Curtin and rescue dog-turned-performer Mr. Tibbs.

Set in Portland, Maine, Hangdog centers on Walt (Borges), who deals with anxiety while attempting to retrieve his stolen dog before his girlfriend, Wendy (O’Sullivan), returns from a business trip.

The film earned audience awards at the Woods Hole and New Hampshire Film Festivals. It has also screened at the Provincetown International Film Festival, the Berkshire International Film Festival and the Calgary International Film Festival.

Cascella helmed the film from a script by Jen Cordery. Cascella, Borges, Alyssa Roehrenbeck and Patrick White serve as producers.

A family of diffident superpowered misfits who get manipulated through a major part of their lives by their eccentric, genius father figure; try to accept their true selves by gaining a sense of purpose through their personal journey, and eventually strengthen the bond among themselves while facing absolutely bonkers situations and doomsday scenarios time and again. If this seems like a description of HBO Max’s underrated comic-book series Doom Patrol to you, then you are both right and wrong, as it’s pretty much the basic premise of Netflix’s hit series, The Umbrella Academy. Putting it like Number Five; think of Doom Patrol, but aim lower. In all seriousness, The Umbrella Academy has garnered massive acclaim and love from viewers throughout three seasons thanks to its zany humor, crazy antics, wacky yet relatable characters, and their struggles—perfectly following through on the source material, the comic-book series of...

While some surprises can be nice, The View fans were not okay with the network’s latest decisions. Recently, fans expressed their anger over the latest episode that was aired.

Scheduling Shake-Up

Unexpectedly, The View had a major scheduling mix-up that left fans up in arms. When the fans went to watch their regularly scheduled program, they were in for a rude awakening. Unbeknownst to them, the panelists were taking some time off the air. Little did they know, the episode airing was a month-old replay, but fans caught on quickly. Understandably, the sneaky move left many fans raging upon the discovery of the show not being live. Although fans are enraged, the daytime TV network is offering a return date to appease the masses in the meantime.

“Dancing with the Stars” season 32 is getting closer to the end. We’re in week nine of the competition with only six competitors left out of the 14 we started with. So what will happen when those remaining celebrities perform to songs by one of the world’s biggest stars in “A Celebration of Taylor Swift”? Scroll down for our live blog with all the minute-by-minute developments and commentary as the night progresses.

Last week “Brady Bunch” actor Barry Williams was the eighth celebrity eliminated from the competition, leaving six to compete for the Len Goodman Mirror Ball Trophy: actress Xochitl Gomez, actress Alyson Hannigan, “Too Hot to Handle” star Harry Jowsey, “The Bachelorette” alum Charity Lawson, “Vanderpump Rules” star Ariana Madix and singer-songwriter Jason Mraz.

This celebration continues a career-peak year for Taylor Swift. She has had three number-one albums: “Midnights,” “Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)” and “1989 (Taylor’s Version...

“Dancing with the Stars” made it through an emotional “Most Memorable Year Night” and a spooky “Monster Night.” Now seven weeks into the competition comes “Music Video Night,” where the celebrities will perform routines inspired by some iconic visuals. So who had the best routines, who struggled on the dance floor and who was eliminated at the end of the evening? Scroll down for our live blog for all the minute-by-minute developments and commentary throughout the night.

Last week “Real Housewives” personality and real estate agent Mauricio Umansky was the sixth celebrity eliminated from the competition, leaving eight to compete for the Len Goodman Mirror Ball Trophy: actress Xochitl Gomez, actress Alyson Hannigan, “Too Hot to Handle” star Harry Jowsey, “The Bachelorette” alum Charity Lawson, “Vanderpump Rules” star Ariana Madix, singer-songwriter Jason Mraz, social media personality Lele Pons and “Brady Bunch” actor Barry Williams.

There are two rounds of competition on “Music Video Night.

Week three of “Dancing with the Stars” brought “Motown Night,” in which the celebrities performed new dance styles — mostly foxtrots — to songs like “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough” by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell, “You Can’t Hurry Love” by The Supremes and “I Want You Back” by The Jackson 5. So who busted a move, and whose moves were busted? Follow along below with our live blog for all the minute-by-minute developments and commentary as the night progresses.

“Saturday Night Live” is coming back to the air next week. Yes, there is still an actors strike going on, but yes, this is Ok. SAG-AFTRA even says so.

But if you’re still wondering why “SNL” is back on the air, your questions are warranted. “SNL” isn’t a game show or reality show that just has a celebrity host. It airs on NBC, whose parent company NBCUniversal is a struck member company with the AMPTP. And generally, they’re getting hosts who have something to promote, which is a strike no-no. In fact, Pete Davidson, who will be the host on the season premiere October 14, was supposed to be the host just before the writers went on strike and cut “SNL’s” season short.

This is hardly the first time SAG-AFTRA has had to clarify to members what actors can and can’t work on during the strike.

Dancing with the Stars viewers are calling foul on judges Carrie Ann Inaba, head judge Derek Hough, and Bruno Tonioli. They claim the trio was “underscoring” beloved TV star Barry Williams after a lively Cha Cha for Latin Night. Fans believe “they did him dirty” by giving the entertainer scores that placed him toward the bottom of the leaderboard.

Fans believe judges were ‘underscoring’ Barry Williams’ on his challenging Cha Cha

Dancing with the Stars Season 32 cast member Barry Williams entered week two of DWTS facing a challenging Cha Cha for Latin Night. Peta Murgatroyd trained Williams in the dance, incorporating small, quick steps rather than long glides across the dance floor.

In a video package accompanying William’s Cha Cha, Peta Murgatroyd and other competing couples celebrated Williams’ 69th birthday in a DWTS rehearsal room. The former Brady Bunch star admitted a great birthday gift would be high scores from the judges.

For the love of jive, look what’s back on ABC!

For a minute, it didn’t look as if the mirror ball would return home on time. The ongoing strike and the preponderance of picketers had the network flirting with the possibility of postponing tonight’s season 32 premiere of Dancing with the Stars. But a deal was finally hammered out on Sunday and earlier this evening, the WGA declared the strike would officially end at 12:01 a.m. Wednesday. What better way to celebrate than watching a bunch of celebs break out in dance?

But before the competition can begin, the cast paid tribute to the late Len Goodman — who now has a Mirror Ball trophy named after him! Goodman, DWTS‘ former head judge, died in April at 78.

Take it away, Alfonso Ribeiro!

“Dancing with the Stars” began its 32nd season on Tuesday night, September 26, in a return to ABC after season 31 streamed exclusively on Disney+ (this season’s episodes will be simulcast on the two platforms).

Dancing With the Stars‘ host, Alfonso Ribeiro, has suffered a concussion. Will this jeopardize his appearance on the season 32 premiere of the ABC reality competition dance series? Here are all the details.

‘DWTS’ returns, but will Alfonso Ribeiro be in the ballroom?

Alfonso Ribeiro is scheduled to helm the 32nd season of ABC’s DWTS when the series returns beginning Tuesday, Sept. 26. His co-host is Julianne Hough, former DWTS pro, judge, and two-time mirrorball winner.

The entertainer shared the story of his injury with Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos on Live With Kelly and Mark. While attending his son’s baseball game, Ribeiro was struck in the head by a flyaway ball, causing a concussion.

“I got concussed last week. I was standing off to the side, and I’m putting someone’s number in the phone and, boom, a ball to the back of my head. Right in the back,...

Willie Nelson is a legendary country artist and, apparently, a fan of the Country Bears. This singer had a cameo in Disney’s live-action movie The Country Bears, revealing that it’s “hard” for him to imagine popular music without this fictional band.

Disney created the Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl inspired by their theme park attractions. In 2002, they released a live-action production inspired by a Frontierland classic — The Country Bears.

The film tells the story of a country-rock group, that split up due to… creative differences. When their beloved concert hall is scheduled for demolition, though, the band manager reunites the Country Bears for one last benefit concert.

That’s with the help of a superfan-turned-Country Bear member,...

Strauss will lead consumer marketing campaigns, creative advertising, media and promotions across original series and films for Apple’s streaming platform.

Cooper Raiff began the pandemic by taking the top prize at the Covid-canceled 2020 SXSW film festival with his feature debut, Shithouse. Less than two years later, his sophomore effort — Apple’s Cha Cha Real Smooth, which follows a recent college graduate who strikes up a friendship with young mother Domino (Dakota Johnson) and her autistic daughter, Lola (Vanessa Burghardt) — premiered at Sundance. Raiff talked to THR about writing and directing his second feature, casting authentically and finding out what size movie works best for him.

Dancing with the Stars‘ first season on Disney+ has come to end! So much change has already been announced going into tonight’s season 31 finale. First, judge Len Goodman and Cheryl Burke have called it quits. Then, Disney gave Bob Chapek the heave-ho and rewarded Bob Iger with his old CEO seat. A desperate plea from the cheap seats, Mr. Iger: return the mirror ball to ABC! I think we can all agree that this streaming experiment has gone the way of the polka: no one wants Disney+ anywhere near the ballroom. Perhaps moving it back home to Mondays on ABC can be your next major decision after lowering the price for the Genie+ line-skipping service at the parks?

All 10 remaining couples danced exclusively to songs by Michael Bublé on Monday night, who also subbed in as a very generous guest judge. The pop vocalist also performed “Sway” and “Higher,” to which Derek Hough choreographed a sexy film-noir performance.

But the highlight of the night was Shangela, who channeled Lady Gaga at the Oscars as she and partner Gleb Savchenko tangoed to “Hollywood.” With so many comments throughout the competition about keeping her legs “crispy,” she surprised judge Len Goodman with a fried chicken breast she’d kept in her cleavage, then presented a surprised Tyra Banks with another. Goodman pronounced the dance “finger-licking good” and her best of the season so far.

There’s no one better to judge “Michael Bublé Night” on Disney+’s Dancing with the Stars than the Grammy Award-winning artist himself. Bublé will join the judges’ table for the Monday, October 24, 2022 episode featuring the 10 remaining couples.

Michael Bublé will get the episode started with a live performance of “Sway.” The season’s female pros will perform a routine choreographed by Jenna Johnson Chmerkovskiy. The episode will also feature judge Judge Derek Hough giving a special performance to “Higher” with his fiancé Hayley Erbert and the pro dancers.

Hey, "Dancing With The Stars" fans. Tonight, October 18, 2022, another new performances/results episode of Dancing With The Stars' current season 31 did indeed arrive. Judges: Len Goodman, Carrie Ann Inaba, Derek Hough and Bruno Tonioli were, of course, back for another night of critiques and scores. Tonight's theme was Prom Night for some reason. Daniel Durant and Britt Stewart kicked off tonight's performances with a Cha Cha number to "Sexyback" by Justin Timberlake. Afterwards, Len said, "I liked the hip action, but your free arm needs to move more." Derek said, "I appreciate your swag and confidence, but your footwork got a little messy." Bruno said, "You can turn on the sex appeal at will, and it was on the right level, but you need more work on your footwork."

“Dancing with the Stars” started its “Stories Week” two-night event with “Most Memorable Year,” and it was even more memorable than we expected going in. So how did the celebrities all pick themselves up and carry on with night two? Follow along with our “Dancing with the Stars” “Prom Night” live blog below.

For “Most Memorable Year,” we were anticipating an elimination at the end of the night, but what we got instead was a surprising withdrawal.

(Spoiler alert! This article reveals the results from Monday’s episode of “Dancing With the Stars” on Disney+.)

While Vinny Guadagnino earned the lowest scores of the evening, he was saved by the audience vote, who loved his spirited, if not technically perfect, rumba to “Thunderball.” Cohost Alfonso Ribiero gave Vinny to respond to Len Goodman’s “blocky” critique by doing his own review as the Brit: “It was rubbish, but he knocked my socks off,” said a game Vinny in his best British accent.

Former “Charlie’s Angels” star Cheryl Ladd and her partner Louis van Amstel have been eliminated from the competition, with all four judges opting to save Sam Champion & Cheryl Burke.

“I feel really confident about small things. I’m going to start a company and probably call it Small Ideas,” the filmmaker said in the interview published back in June. “There’s a very good, lucrative market for making small things and flipping them, and if you’re okay with them being maybe like a streamer-theatrical duo, I think everyone should be really feeling great and confident about getting their stuff made that they want to make.
