'Making a Murderer' New Season: Netflix Reveals Trailer and Release Date
Along with NPR's hit podcast, Serial, Netflix's first season of Making a Murderer was responsible for a kind of true crime renaissance. It went from a genre full of covert devotees afraid of seeming creepy to a staple of casual conversations.
Making a Murderer is still sparking those conversations and it's easy to see why. The story of Steven Avery—once wrongly convicted of murder only to be convicted again—is engrossing and unsettling. And it's far from over, so a new series begins streaming in October.
The series will be made up of 10 episodes examining continuing efforts to clear the names of Avery and his convicted accomplice and nephew, Brendan Dassey. While the trailer is brief, it takes fans right back to the heavy and often wrenching feel of the first season, embodied in the hashmarks indicating days in prison widening out to Avery's mugshot.
Over the footage we hear a woman saying that "Once somebody’s convicted, they have to move mountains to get out of prison."
For this second look at Avery's ongoing efforts to gain his freedom, Laura Ricciardi and Moira Demos once again headed to Wisconsin, where they followed Avery's and Dassey's families and the attorneys working his case.
Many do believe Steven Avery is guilty as charged. The popularity of Season One even prompted production of Convicting a Murderer—a series involving prosecutors, police, and victim Teresa Halbach's friends and family.
While Avery's lawyers in the first season attained a measure of celebrity, they're no longer on board. His new attorney is Kathleen Zellner, who specializes in overturning wrongful convictions. Viewers will follow Zellner's efforts to find the truth that might set her client free.
Season Two of Making a Murderer begins streaming October 19.

Outlander: Why Stephen Bonnet Is 1 of the Worst Villains in the Series
Image Source: Getty / David M Benett
When Outlander returns this Fall with its fourth season, a new character is joining the crew in the form of Stephen Bonnet, played by Downton Abbey alum Ed Speleers. Book readers know that Bonnet is a villain of the darkest kind, and he is about to wreak havoc on the Frasers' lives for several years to come.
But for you non-book-readers who are dying to know how the character plays out, we're here with a guide to the character in the upcoming books/seasons.
Warning: spoilers from books four through six below!
Drums of Autumn
When season four picks up, Claire (Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie (Sam Heughan) are in Charleston, SC, on their way to a North Carolina plantation owned by Jamie's Aunt Jocasta (Maria Doyle Kennedy). They pause in Charleston to bear witness to the hanging of one of Jamie's men from Ardsmuir Prison so that he won't be alone and can have a proper burial afterward.
But another man is set to be hanged alongside Jamie's friend, and it's here we meet Bonnet. He escapes the gallows and later begs Jamie and his group to help him escape the authorities. Jamie does so, and it's a decision that comes back to haunt him.
First, Bonnet and some fellow criminals rob Jamie and Claire, getting away with Claire's gold wedding ring from her marriage to Frank. Much later, after Brianna (Sophie Skelton) and Roger (Richard Rankin) have traveled back to 1760s America, Bonnet rapes Brianna when she tries to get her mother's ring back from him. He does give her the ring as "payment" for the rape, but the fallout is that, when Brianna discovers she is pregnant, she doesn't know for sure whether the father is Bonnet or Roger.

Bonnet thwarts death once more in this book when he escapes execution at Cross Creek. Brianna had come there to confront her attacker before his death and ended up revealing that he might be her baby's father. Before he flees for good (in this book at least), Bonnet gives Brianna a diamond to help her care for the baby, which Brianna names Jeremiah (nickname Jemmy) after Roger's father. Roger may or may not be Jemmy's biological father, but he is the man raising Jemmy, so he's the father either way.
The Fiery Cross
Despite Brianna having come to terms with her rape, her father is another story. He is still trying to track down her rapist and make him pay for what he did to Brianna. Roger is supportive of Jamie's plan and asks his father-in-law to train him in fighting so that he may be the one to kill Bonnet.
We don't see the odious man for a while, but eventually he comes upon Claire and young Jemmy and thinks that the young boy is his son. Bonnet reveals that he has been trying to steal gold that is supposedly hidden away on Jocasta's plantation and now he intends to take Jemmy. But before he can, Brianna shoots him in the groin and he flees once again.
A Breath of Snow and Ashes
It is now mid-1773 and the first time we see Bonnet in this book, he is once again trying to get close to Jemmy. He has also become somewhat obsessed with Brianna, eventually having her kidnapped and taken aboard his ship bound for Ocracoke, an island off the coast of North Carolina.
He doesn't attack her again because she's pregnant, but he does make her sleep with him in his bed and reveals some of his personal fears to her. Still, he's a true villain at heart, as he tries to sell Brianna to the highest bidder. Fortunately, her family arrives and rescues her.

Brianna chooses to hand Bonnet over to the authorities rather than dispense punishment herself. He is found guilty and sentenced to death by drowning, which involves tying him to a post in a harbor as the tide comes in. But before he can be completely submerged, Brianna shows him a bit of mercy and shoots Bonnet in the head.
Needless to say, over the next three Outlander seasons, Stephen Bonnet is about to become quite the antagonist for the Fraser clan.
Outlander's fourth season premieres Nov. 4 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Starz.

You're Not Imagining Things; Lucas Hedges Is Everywhere Right Now
We were so thrilled when we heard that Garrard Conley's memoir Boy Erased was getting a big-screen adaptation written and directed by Joel Edgerton. The story follows Jared, a teenager living in a small Arkansas town who is unwillingly outed to his devout Baptist parents and subsequently must attend a gay conversion therapy program through his church. It's a compelling story that's already been getting a ton of buzz, and we have been counting down the days until its Nov. 2 release.
That excitement quadrupled when we heard the power players who would head up the cast. Ever since Nicole Kidman knocked our socks off in Big Little Lies, we've been patiently waiting for more opportunities to see her own the theater. She has been cast as Nancy, Jared's mother, and we can hear the Oscar buzz already. Then, we have New Zealander Russell Crowe depicting Jared's pastor father, Marshall. Even Edgerton himself has a role in the film, playing the head therapist at the gay conversion therapy program. The true star, however, is Lucas Hedges, who plays the intricate character of Jared as he navigates this arduous, painful time in his life.
We've been fans of Hedges for a while now, and his roster proves that he is a truly talented young actor. It was back in a middle-school play that the casting director for Moonrise Kingdom (2012) spotted the young Hedges and gave him his start with the role of Redford. After that, Hedges went on to win roles in Arthur Newman, Labor Day, The Zero Theorem, and The Grand Budapest Hotel. He earned a lot of attention for his role as Jeremey Renner's son in the film adaptation of Nick Schou's book Kill the Messenger. Then in 2015, he was cast as Ritchie Joanou opposite Peter Sarsgaard, Thandie Newton, Uma Thurman, and Zachary Quinto in the television miniseries The Slap.
But it was his role in Kenneth Lonergan's 2016 film Manchester by the Sea that truly introduced audiences to Hedges's unimaginable talent. He played Patrick Chandler, the nephew of Casey Affleck's character, who must grapple with his father's sudden death and the complicated behavior of his new guardian. For this role, he was nominated for an Academy Award. It's hard to believe that things for Hedges could get any better than that, but 2017 proved to be his year. He played Danny O'Neill in one of our favorite films of that year, Lady Bird, in addition to starring as Frances McDormand's son in Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri. It's almost as if Hedges is a magnet for Academy Award-nominated films (take note, Martin Scorsese.)
On top of his role in Boy Erased, Hedges will also star opposite Julia Roberts in Ben Is Back this year (another role already getting a ton of buzz) and in Mid90s, a film written and directed by Jonah Hill. He will also make his first Broadway appearance in The Waverly Gallery. And if all that doesn't seem like enough, he's starring in a Shia LaBeouf film called Honey Boy in the near future.

31 Times the Queen Was So Over It and She Didn't Care Who Knew
Queen Elizabeth II makes hundreds of public appearances each year, and she's been doing it for over 66 years - the longest of any British monarch. That's a whole lot of hand shaking and smiling for photo ops! Enough to make anyone, even the Queen of England, a little grumpy. Sure, she smiles kindly most of the time - and has some pretty hilarious expressions - but there are moments when her majesty just can't fake it with a sparkly grin. Can you blame her? I'd be frowning, too, if I still didn't get to retire at 92 years old. And based on her increased workload so far this year, she's not slowing down one bit. Which means there are likely even more unamused faces to come. Until then, take a look at her least thrilled looks from the past.

The Queen May Look Short, but She's Probably Taller Than You Think
The world looks up to Queen Elizabeth II as the longest-reigning monarch in British history. But even with that impressive title, she's certainly not "above" everyone else. At just 5'4" tall, the queen is actually pretty average, even short by some standards.
While her majesty is on par with the average woman in the United States, she falls below the average European woman, who stands at 5'6". In her immediate family, the queen is among the shortest (not counting Prince George!). And if she appears heads below her own husband, children, and grandchildren, it's because most of them have more than a few inches on her. When coupled with the brightly colored outfits she prefers, the height disparity is even more pronounced in photos from official events.
But the queen's measurements don't detract from her important role as head of state in 16 commonwealth countries. In fact, one could argue that her stature is partly what makes her one of the most recognizable figures in the world. Plus, when everyone else has to bow down to you, does it really matter where you fall on the measuring stick?

Robert Pattinson Hangs Out With Shia LaBeouf's Ex After FKA Twigs Romance Reports
Well, things just got a lot more interesting. Following news that Shia LaBeouf and Mia Goth got divorced and Shia is now dating Robert Pattinson's ex-fiancée, FKA Twigs, Rob and Mia hit the San Sebastian Film Festival in Spain together on Thursday. The two were on hand to promote their upcoming film, High Life, and seemed to be in good spirits as they shared a few laughs and chatted with their costars including Agata Buzek and Scarlett Lindsey. Before you jump to any conclusions, though, it's likely that Rob and Mia are just friends. They also attended the Toronto Film Festival to do press for their movie earlier this month.
Rob and Twigs first got together in 2014 but called off their engagement in October 2017. The actor was most recently linked to Suki Waterhouse after they were caught kissing on a movie date in London in July. While the status of their relationship still remains unclear, Mia, on the other hand, split from Shia almost two years after they tied the knot in Las Vegas.
