Official Trailer for ‘The Alabama Solution’ Doc About Prison Corruption

“They don’t want the public to see what’s really going on on the inside…” HBO Max has revealed an official trailer for a documentary film titled The Alabama Solution, an extraordinary inside look at the problems within the American prison system. This film premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival and also played at Sheffield DocFest. Made by acclaimed doc filmmaker Andrew Jarecki, it is ready to view on HBO Max in October. Composed primarily of contraband cell phone footage taken by incarcerated men at Easterling and other facilities across the state, The Alabama Solution film exposes the inhumane conditions, systemic injustice, and brutal treatment of those behind bars in the Alabama prison system told through their own voices and their own stories. The film expertly weaves the pressing issues of prison privatization, inmate slave labor, abuse of power, government corruption, and extreme violence together to help audiences on the outside get a real sense of the abhorrent conditions of our fellow human beings. Looks very hard to watch – but still an important, necessary, vital example of reporting on the truth even when it’s so extremely rotten.

Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Andrew Jarecki’s doc The Alabama Solution, from YouTube:

In 2019, filmmakers visit an Alabama prison to film a revival meeting. Off camera, incarcerated men whisper a message: terrible things are going on here & being kept secret. This sparks an immersive six-year investigation to discover the reality behind the walls of one of the nation’s deadliest prison systems. Through unprecedented direct access and video shot on contraband cell phones, the filmmakers learn from the men inside about a suspicious and violent death. The story unfolds in real time, revealing it isn’t an isolated incident and that the official version appears far from the truth. What follows is a shocking story of brutality, corruption, and a system in collapse. As the men fight for their own survival, they embark on a campaign of resistance, against all odds. The Alabama Solution is a doc film directed by the filmmaker Andrew Jarecki, director of the doc Capturing the Friedmans, the film All Good Things, and the entire “The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst” series. Produced by Charlotte Kaufman & Andrew Jarecki. This initially premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival earlier this year. HBO will debut Jarecki’s The Alabama Solution doc streaming on HBO Max starting October 10th, 2025 coming up soon. Intrigued?

In October 2022, Shaun brought his children to the Ring of Honor celebration with his former team, the Seahawks, and shared photos of the sweet family moment to his Instagram.

“The Ring of Honor celebration last weekend was amazing. More than anything, my journey has been all about family,” Shaun captioned his post. “I’m grateful that for the first time, my entire family was able to travel to Seattle and be with the Seahawks. We take the meaning of ‘the 12’s’ to a whole new level. Haha.. Go Hawks.”

Shaun and his wife share 10 daughters altogether.

In April 2025, Shaun treated Jedidiah for his birthday by bringing him to the NFL Draft, the ex-athlete shared via Instagram.

“I asked Jedidiah what he wanted for his birthday; He said go somewhere with you. So, draft it was,” Shaun captioned his carousel post, which consisted of snapshots from the 2025 Draft. “Great time with my boys,” he added.

‘Love Island’ Star Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu Reveals Her Tips for Thriving on Reality TV

by jummy84 September 25, 2025
written by jummy84

A little competition never hurt anyone! Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu first rose to fame after winning Love Island in 2022 and has since become a familiar face on reality television with stints on Dancing on Ice, The Wheel, The Traitors US, Celebrity Big Brother, and Love Island: All Stars.

Now, the British-Turkish actress is taking her talents to Netflix’s new high-stakes series, Inside: USA, and she’s sharing her advice for surviving (and thriving) on TV.

Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu/Instagram

“I’ve always had that fire in me. … I’d describe my competitive spirit as strategic and observant. I love to have fun, but I also want to win,” she tells ET. 

Offscreen, the 30-year-old is just as fierce, but her opponents are different. 

“I’m competitive with myself more than anything. I’m always pushing to be better, whether that’s in my career or personal life. I love to set big goals and challenge myself. I don’t like to settle until I’ve reached them,” she says.

Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu/Instagram

Since adopting that strong mindset, it’s been easy for Cülcüloğlu to ignore any haters. 

“Once you know your worth, the outside chatter doesn’t matter as much. When the comments come in, I try to focus on the positives and the love people send rather than the negativity,” the model notes. 

“I’ve learned that you can’t please everyone, and that’s okay. I remind myself that most negativity says more about the person writing it than about me,” she adds.

Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu/Instagram

Above all, the television star embraces her journey on and off camera.

“People have literally watched me fall in love, make mistakes, and reinvent myself. I’m not afraid to change and grow. I want to keep surprising people and show different sides of who I am.”

“What if something followed me back?” “Find out what the ‘what’ is, okay?” Vertical has unveiled the main official trailer for 2025’s The Astronaut, a sci-fi thriller from filmmaker Jessica Varley making her feature directorial debut. It lands in theaters in the US starting in October – because it is seriously creepy and they want it to play during horror season. After returning from her first space mission barely surviving re-entry, astronaut Sam Walker is placed under NASA’s care at a high security house for rehab and medical testing isolated out in the woods. However, when disturbing occurrences begin happening around the property, she fears that something extraterrestrial has followed her back to Earth. Is it real or is it just in her head? Or is it something else entirely? 👽 Starring Kate Mara as Sam, Laurence Fishburne, Gabriel Luna, Ivana Milicevic, & Macy Gray. This originally premiered at the 2025 SXSW Film Festival earlier this year. This is a much better trailer than the first look promo we also posted. This looks like an unsettling thriller that will play up the mystery of “what is really going on?!” right up until the last moment. I’m very curious now…

Here’s the official US trailer (+ poster) for Jess Varley’s sci-fi film The Astronaut, direct from YouTube:

You can watch the first look promo for Jess Varley’s The Astronaut film right here for even more footage.

👩‍🚀 Humanity is about to learn we’re not alone… When astronaut Sam Walker returns from her first space mission, she’s found miraculously alive in a punctured capsule floating deep off the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. Required to be quarantined, her adopted father General William Harris places Sam under NASA surveillance in a high security house, isolated in the woods. Reunited with her husband, Sam appears to be re-acclimating and preparing for her next mission. When disturbing occurrences begin happening around the property, she fears that something extraterrestrial has followed her back to Earth, and the agencies meant to protect her are endangering her life. Not even those close to her can be trusted. The Astronaut is written and directed by American indie filmmaker Jess Varley, making her feature directorial debut after a few other shorts. It’s produced by Brad Fuller, Eric B. Fleischman, Chris Abernathy, Cameron Fuller. This initially premiered at the 2025 SXSW Film Festival earlier this year. Vertical will release Jess Varley’s The Astronaut film in select US theaters starting October 17th, 2025 coming up this fall. Want to watch this?

Meet ‘The Golden Bachelor’ Star’s Children – Hollywood Life

Mel Owens may be handing out roses on The Golden Bachelor Season 2, but away from the cameras, he’s first and foremost a devoted dad. The former NFL player turned reality TV star shares two sons with his ex-wife. As the 66-year-old embarks on his televised search for love, fans are just as curious about his family life and the children who have always been at the center of his world.

Below, get to know Mel’s kids.

Mel Owens’ Career

Before becoming The Golden Bachelor Season 2 lead, Mel built a successful career both on and off the football field. He played as a linebacker for the Los Angeles Rams in the NFL from 1981 to 1989, where he became known for his consistency and leadership.

MEL OWENS

After retiring from professional sports, Mel transitioned into a career in law, working as an attorney specializing in workers’ compensation and disability law.

Who Are Mel Owens’ Children?

Mel is a proud father of two sons, Lucas and Andre, from his first marriage. While they live more private lives, Mel has spoken about how important fatherhood is to him and how being a dad has shaped his perspective on life.

According to his ABC bio, his children are a central part of his world, and he hopes to find a partner who embraces his family values as much as he does.

Who Is Mel Owens’ Ex-Wife?

Mel was married to Fabiana Pimentel for 25 years before she filed for divorce in 2020. Their split was finalized in December 2024, after a lengthy process. The divorce settlement included joint custody of their two sons, and though Fabiana has largely stayed out of the spotlight, she has publicly distanced herself from Mel’s role on The Golden Bachelor.

Why Did ABC Choose Mel Owens as The Golden Bachelor?

ABC highlighted Mel’s story as one that resonates with viewers — a man who had a long, committed marriage, raised a family, and is now ready to open his heart again in his golden years. In his official bio, the network described him as a “devoted dad” who wants to rediscover love through simple joys like companionship, making plans for the future, and growing stronger as a couple.

“We have a chance to save our family – if we can find the Sandman.” Netflix has revealed the official trailer for In Your Dreams, an animated adventure from filmmakers Erik Benson and Alex Woo. This fun new creation reminds me of the other Netflix movie Slumberland with Jason Momoa, or even Pixar’s Dream Productions series as well, with a similar premise about kids who get into their dreams. In Your Dreams is a comedy adventure about Stevie and her brother Elliot who journey into the absurd landscape of their own dreams. If the siblings can withstand a snarky stuffed giraffe, zombie breakfast foods, and the queen of nightmares, the Sandman will grant them their ultimate dream come true…the perfect family. “What if your dreams could become reality?” This was just unveiled with a preview at the Annecy Film Festival in France. The voice cast features Jolie Hoang-Rappaport, Elias Janssen, Craig Robinson, Simu Liu, Cristin Milioti, Omid Djalili, Gia Carides, SungWon Cho, and Zachary Noah Piser. With music from John Debney, animation from Kuku Studios & Sony’s Imageworks. This looks like it should be very wild, zany fun.

Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Alex Woo’s film In Your Dreams, direct from Netflix’s YouTube:

In this enchanting tale, Stevie (voiced by Jolie Hoang-Rappaport) and her brother, Elliot (voiced by Elias Janssen), venture through an absurd world of their own imagination to make their family perfect again. If the siblings can withstand a snarky stuffed giraffe, zombie breakfast foods, and the queen of nightmares, their dream just might come true. When 12-year-old Stevie and her 8-year-old brother, Elliot, discover a magical picture book that says the Sandman can make any dream a reality, the duo embark on a life-affirming journey into the dream realm to find the mythical character. Longing to make their family perfect, the duo urgently wish for it to come true. In You Dreams is directed by animation filmmaker Alex Woo (aka Alexander Woo), director of Go! Go! Cory Carson: Chrissy Takes the Wheel previously and many other “Go! Go!” shorts & films. Co-directed by Erik Benson. The screenplay is also by Alex Woo and Erik Benson. Produced by Timothy Hahn & Gregg Taylor. Made by Kuku Studios and Sony Pictures Imageworks. Netflix releases In Your Dreams streaming on Netflix worldwide starting November 14th, 2025 this fall.

Jessica Sanchez Also Competed in American Idol

After competing in AGT for the first time, Jessica gave American Idol a shot. She auditioned for season 11 and made it through the finals when the judges used their “Judges Save” option to keep her in the competition. Jessica finished season 11 of Idol as the runner-up behind Phillip Phillips.

From then on, Jessica continued recording music and performing for various occasions.

Jessica Sanchez Was Pregnant When She Won AGT Season 20

While competing on AGT in season 20, Jessica was pregnant. Despite the difficulties that come with any pregnancy, the multi-talented artist persevered and won the competition shortly before she was expected to give birth to her child.

“Today, I officially step into my 9th month of pregnancy,” Jessica captioned an Instagram post weeks before the season 20 finale. “My heart is overflowing with gratitude for all the love and kind words that have been pouring in. I never imagined I’d be spending these final weeks of pregnancy away from home, in the middle of such an exciting competition. I truly believe God’s plan is greater than my own. This journey has been so unexpected, yet so beautiful, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.”

“Do I remember the future?” Rich Spirit has just unveiled the first look teaser trailer for an acclaimed new documentary film titled BLKNWS: Terms & Conditions, created by filmmaker Kahlil Joseph. This first premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival, and has been playing everywhere else including Berlinale, NYFF, TIFF, Vanoucver, London, and IDFA. It’s more of a video essay than a doc with a narrative – taking viewers on a profound visual / intellectual journey through Black history and beyond. “A film and filmmaker that refuses to be contained.” Kahlil Joseph’s BLKNWS: Terms & Conditions rewires history, memory, and sound into a cinematic experience unlike anything else. Adapted from his seminal video art installation, the film interweaves fictional and historical characters in an immersive story that spans 247 years across land and sea – inspired by the entirety of the “Africana” encyclopedia book in this teaser. In its mix of fictional & documentary forms, the film is inspired by W.E.B. Du Bois, Marcus Garvey, Saidiya Hartman, and others thinkers, juxtaposing their ideas with archive material & images. This film is a must watch for cinema nerds.

Here’s the first look teaser trailer for Kahlil Joseph’s doc BLKNWS: Terms & Conditions, on YouTube:

BLKNWS: Terms & Conditions Teaser Trailer

BLKNWS: Terms & Conditions Teaser Trailer

Original intro via TIFF: “Celebrated artist and filmmaker Kahlil Joseph revisits and expands upon his eponymous two-channel ‘fugitive newscast’ installation that was showcased at the 2019 Venice Biennale among other prestigious venues, in this galvanizing, shape-shifting exploration of Black history, identity, and possibility. Joseph enlisted several prominent Black scholars and thinkers to co-write the film in an act of collective fabulation. Formally audacious and conceived as a cinematic experience that mirrors the sonic textures of an album, the film fluidly moves between modes, creating its own free-associative logic that mixes personal memoir, speculative narrative, archival footage, social media samples, and citations of work by other great artists.” BLKNWS: Terms & Conditions is directed by the artist / filmmaker Kahlil Joseph, making his feature directorial debut after many short films & other video projects. It’s produced by Onye Anyanwu, Kahlil Joseph, Amy Greenleaf, Nic Gonda. This initially premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival earlier this year. Presented by Rich Spirit. Kahlil Joseph’s BLKNWS: Terms & Conditions doc film will open in select US theaters this November 2025. Stay tuned for more updates. Anyone intrigued?

The show follows green-skinned star Elphaba from birth to college and through the life-changing events which eventually label her ‘wicked,’ introducing spoiled rich girl Glinda, local prince and heartthrob Fiyero and even the Wizard of Oz himself, a troubled man very unlike the one you may remember.”

It continues: “As Elphaba, a passionate political activist if there ever was one, fights injustice and seeks to undo the mistakes of the past, dark secrets, and personal tragedies shape the history of Oz, paying homage to the classic Wizard of Oz story while simultaneously changing fans’ understanding of it forever. A cautionary tale about love, friendship, and trust, Wicked effortlessly reveals that there are indeed two sides to every story.”

Fans of the musical know the story is expansive, raising the question: when can viewers expect its second film Wicked: For Good?

“In a city divided, they fight for the truth.” Take down the AI! Studiocanal has unveiled an official trailer for the film titled Dog 51, a sci-fi thriller by French filmmaker Cédric Jimenez. It just premiered at the 2025 Venice Film Festival and also played at TIFF, with a release in France starting in October. In the near future, Paris is divided into three zones that separate social classes, and no one can escape ALMA, a predictive AI that has revolutionised law enforcement. When ALMA’s creator is assassinated, Salia, a top agent, and Zem, a jaded cop, are forced to work together to solve a murder that may expose the dark secrets of the system they serve. The movie is the third in Jimenez’s trilogy about cops – with BAC Nord and Novembre. Starring Gilles Lellouche, Adèle Exarchopoulos, Louis Garrel, Romain Duris, Valeria Bruni Tedeschi, Artus, Lala &ce, Stéphane Bak, and Thomas Bangalter (!!). This reminds me of I, Robot and Minority Report in many ways – very similar premise, very similar ideas about Artificial Intelligence. I can appreciate the world building in this, looks big and flashy and thrilling. Keep an eye out for it in US theaters eventually.

Here’s the first official trailer (+ poster) for Cédric Jimenez’s film Dog 51, direct from YouTube:

“Chien 51 is my third film exploring the theme of law enforcement. It completes a trilogy on the subject, bringing together the “dog” from BAC Nord and the elite officer from Novembre. If the police are the institution that enables the polis — the city — to function by tracking down criminals, what happens when it adopts a tool so powerful that it pushes the system to its breaking point, even bypassing its essential counterpart: justice? Can we entrust the safety of a city’s inhabitants to an ultraintelligent tool devoid of conscience and humanity?” –Director Cédric Jimenez

Dog 51 Film Trailer

Dog 51 Film Trailer

Set in a dystopian future in Paris, where people have been segregated into neighborhoods in three zones separated by social class, and police are directed by an artificial intelligence system called ALMA. When the creator of the system is murdered, investigators Salia (Adèle Exarchopoulos) & Zem (Gilles Lellouche) work to solve the case, and in doing so discover alarming information about the authority that governs them. Dog 51, also known as Chien 51 in French, is directed by French filmmaker Cédric Jimenez, director of the films Paris Under Watch, The Connection, The Man with the Iron Heart, and The Stronghold (aka BAC Nord), and November previously. The screenplay is by Olivier Demangel and Cédric Jimenez; based on the novel written by Laurent Gaudé. Produced by Hugo Sélignac. This initially premiered at the 2025 Venice Film Festival recently. Jimenez’s Dog 51 film opens first in French cinemas starting October 15th, 2025 (including in IMAX) this fall. No US release date is set yet – stay tuned for updates. Anyone interested in it?
