00:08since a supposedly leaked invitation for a dinner at Paltrow's home in Altman's honor started making
00:13the rounds online. On Thursday, Paltrow decided to get in on the conversation. She took to Instagram
00:18to share a series of faux invites for dinners at her home in honor of Megan the Doll, Samantha
00:23Jones, Shrek, Jessica Rabbit, and the TikTok character Chanty Beluga. Neither Altman nor
00:28Paltrow has confirmed the validity of the invite or whether the off-the-record dinner party is really
00:33happening, but it was also reported by Puck. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are officially
00:38leaving the U.S. and moving back to the U.K. Their kids have been enrolled in British school
00:42starting in September. So since they're leaving California for what's being called an undisclosed
00:46period of time, people are wondering, are they also leaving Hollywood? That remains to be seen.

01:30$1.35 billion globally, surpassing Deadpool and Wolverine. Sorry, Ryan Reynolds.
01:36Sons of Anarchy creator Kurt Sutter is sharing his thoughts on the new spinoff of his fan-favorite
01:40series. The show titled Legends is being called a meta-thriller because it will see the cast play
01:45fictionalized versions of themselves and attend a fan convention where they get caught up in a
01:49dangerous, life-imitating art situation. Sutter says that Charlie Hunnam, who helped develop the
01:54spinoff, asked him for his blessing and he gave it to him. And while Sutter is not involved with
01:58the new series, he says he wishes nothing but the best for Hunnam in this project.

02:14released a statement that read in part,
02:16We are proud to have partnered with Hayden and understand that we made her feel unsupported during
02:20a very difficult time. The company also said it is saddened by her passing and they committed to
