I’ll admit it—the messaging around skinny jeans is constantly muddled. One day they’re said to be in and the next they’re out, which can be confusing and annoying to say the least. As a fashion editor, I’m always on the lookout for celebrities and fashion people wearing skinny jeans, and more often than not in 2025, there’s one specific skinny-jean trend they’re wearing: capri skinny jeans. That’s the exact style Bella Hadid just wore in Paris, amidst Paris Fashion Week.
Hadid opted for a dark wash low-rise pair of capri jeans, which she wore with a With Jéan polka dot top, leather blazer, and the specific shoe style I often see worn with capri skinny jeans: kitten heel pumps. The shoes give the retro jeans a decidedly elegant spin and keep them from looking dated. Hadid’s outfit is proof that we didn’t leave capris in the summer months—it’s very much possible to make them fall-appropriate, and a leather jacket and kitten heels do the trick in an instant.
Keep scrolling to shop Hadid’s perfect capri skinny jeans look, along with an assortment of similar capri jeans to add to your denim collection.

“Maya,” Channel 4’s upcoming witness protection thriller series starring Bella Ramsey and Daisy Haggard, has started shooting in Scotland, with a host of names joining the cast.
Written and created by BAFTA and International Emmy nominee Haggard (“Back To Life,” “Breeders”), who will also make her directorial debut, co-directing the series from Two Brothers Pictures (“The Tourist,” “Fleabag,” “Boat Story”) alongside Jamie Donoughue (“Doctor Who,” “The Last Kingdom”).
In the six-part series Ramsey plays the titular, Maya, teenage daughter of Anna (Haggard). Forced into a witness protection programme to escape a life-threatening danger, Anna and Maya leave their London lives and parents, Nancy (Harriet Walter – “Succession”, “Ted Lasso”) and George (Tom Courtenay – “Quartet,” “45 Years”) behind, taking on new identities and relocating to a small rural town in Scotland. Aided by Senior Detective Constable Debs (Josie Walker – “Kneecap,” “Andor”) and witness protection officers Tony (Stuart Bowman – “Dept. Q,” “Rebus”) and Karen (Kiran Sonia Sawar – “Slow Horses,” “True Love”) they try to adjust to their new reality, but the trauma of their past continues to haunt them in the form of two hitmen, Benji (Ben Chaplin – “September 5,” “The Dig”) and Ted (Raphel Famotibe – “The Night Manager S2,” “Wale”) who are intent on tracking them down. As the walls close in, it becomes clear that a dangerous and calculating figure from their past, the seemingly charming Bobby (Tobias Menzies – “F1,” “The Crown”), is still a looming and very present threat.
Also joining the cast are Serena Manteghi (“The Diplomat,” “Mrs Wilson”), Archie Backhouse (“Strategic Love Play,” “Farm Hall”), Paul Blair (“Outpost,” “Outlaw King”), Sonny Poon Tip (“Industry,” “Andor”), Finlay Shack (“Dept Q”), Max Fincham (“The Tower,” “The Witness”), Ash Hunter (“Bridgerton, “Harlots”), Harry Hadden-Patton (“Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale,” “Twisters”), Tori Allen-Martin (“Here We Go,” “London Kills”) and Isabele Derosa (“The Bombing of Pan Am 103”).
“Maya” is billed as “darkly comedic,” and am “atmospheric psychological thriller that explores themes of predatory male behaviour, family and love, but, above all, is a warm and witty celebration of the special, unbreakable bond shared between mother and daughter.”
“After years of writing and dreaming this show up… I’m absolutely thrilled that we have started filming ‘Maya’ and cannot get over what an unbelievably brilliant cast we have joining us to bring it all to life!” said Haggard. “I feel so lucky to get to work with all these remarkably talented actors as both a director and actor on this series.”
Added Two Brother Pictures exec producers Daisy Mount and Alex Mercer: “The bar was set so high on ‘Maya’ with Bella and Daisy leading the cast and Daisy’s phenomenally nuanced and entertaining scripts, so we are elated by this incredible roster of talent joining the ensemble alongside them. We can’t wait to bring the series to screens, and are hugely thankful to Channel 4, as well as our incredible cast and Scottish crew.”
Said Gemma Boswell, commissioning editor, Channel 4 Drama: “It’s a pleasure to reveal the stellar ensemble cast for ‘Maya.’ The fantastic scripts have enticed such esteemed and exciting talent, led by Daisy and Bella. Set against a stunning Scottish backdrop, we’re delighted that filming is now underway.”
“Maya” is a Two Brothers Pictures (an All3Media company) production, in association with All3Media International. The 6×60 drama has been written and created by Haggard who will also serve as executive producer, with Harry and Jack Williams, Sarah Hammond, Mercer and Mount serving as executive producers for Two Brothers Pictures. Kenny Tanner is Producer, Donoughue will co-direct and serve as co-executive Producer and Shaheen Baig is casting director. The commissioning editor for Channel 4 is Boswell. All filming will take place on location in Scotland.
Call Me Bae recently completed a year, and Ananya Panday’s performance as Bella Chaudhary still feels fresh in the minds of audiences. From taking on roles across genres to seamlessly blending charm with relatability, Ananya has become more than an actress — she’s an icon that the younger generation resonates with. Known for her candidness and fearless choices, she has steadily carved out a space that reflects the aspirations and complexities of today’s youth.
As mentioned in the recent conversation with The Nod Magazine, Collin D’Cunha, director of Call Me Bae, opened up about why Ananya was the perfect fit for the role of Bella Chaudhary. He said, “We needed someone to embody the spirit of a younger Poo (from Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham…) but in 2024. And Ananya just felt like the voice of this generation.”
The statement highlights how the creative team wanted an actor who could capture the restless, unapologetic, and fun spirit that defines contemporary youth culture — a space where Ananya effortlessly belongs.
Over the years, Ananya has consistently chosen roles that break conventional molds, embracing narratives from different spectrums while staying authentic to her persona. Her approachability and willingness to experiment have earned her a dedicated fanbase, especially among younger audiences who see her as a reflection of their own experiences.
With Call Me Bae, she not only extended her acting prowess but also became a cultural touchstone — someone who represents the voice, style, and spirit of an entire generation.

“Forever Begins Again” – The Teaser That Broke the Internet
On Wednesday, the franchise’s official page dropped a poster featuring Bella (Kristen Stewart), Edward (Robert Pattinson), and Jacob (Taylor Lautner) with the cryptic tagline: “Forever Begins Again. This October.”
The post was co-shared by Lionsgate, which owns the rights to the saga, and Fathom Events, known for re-releasing cultural classics in theatres. Together, they’ve sparked speculation that this is more than just a nostalgia play.
Why Now? The 20th Anniversary Connection
October 5, 2025, marks the 20th anniversary of the first Twilight novel by Stephenie Meyer. The re-release perfectly aligns with this milestone, giving both old and new fans a chance to revisit Forks, Washington, on the big screen.
The saga includes:
Twilight (2008)
New Moon (2009)
Eclipse (2010)
Breaking Dawn – Part 1 (2011)
Breaking Dawn – Part 2 (2012)
Together, the films grossed over $400M worldwide, catapulting its young cast into superstardom.
Fan Frenzy: From Theories to Fandom Wars
The teaser immediately lit up social media. While many are preparing for a theatrical re-release, others are daring to hope for something bigger, a new animated series, book, or spin-off film.
Comments flooded in:
“Y’all, I am going to burst into fangirl flames.”
Even Jeopardy!’s official account chimed in with “OMG OMG OMG.”
Twilight’s Pop Culture Legacy:
Love it or hate it, Twilight changed the pop-culture landscape. It made vampires mainstream, turned Christina Perri’s “A Thousand Years” into a wedding anthem, and gave us one of the most debated love triangles in cinema history.
Robert Pattinson has often joked that fans tell him Twilight “ruined vampire movies,” while Taylor Lautner still insists Jacob deserved Bella. The frenzy proves one thing: Twilight remains as divisive, dramatic, and addictive as ever.
What to Expect This October?
Details will be revealed soon, but here’s what fans can likely look forward to:
Theatrical screenings of all five films across major markets
Special fan events by Fathom Events
New merchandise and re-released soundtracks timed with the anniversary
Whether you’re Team Edward or Team Jacob, October promises to reignite the Twilight fever that once had the world divided over sparkling vampires and shirtless werewolves.
Final Word:
For a franchise that ended in 2012, the return of The Twilight Saga proves its eternal hold on pop culture. With nostalgia, fandoms, and a new generation of audiences ready to join the ride, the saga’s comeback could be one of the biggest theatrical re-releases of the decade.Stay tuned — because in 2025, forever really does begin again.
The Last Of Us star Bella Ramsey has cautioned critics of the hit HBO series not to watch season three – see what they had to say below.
The first season of HBO’s The Last Of Us adapted the plot of the hit video game, while the second season began to tell the story of The Last Of Us Part II. In the series, Ramsey – who is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns – portrays Ellie, while Pedro Pascal plays Joel Miller.
The second season of The Last Of Us may have inspired millions to try out the video game series but viewership of the finale was down 56 per cent compared to season one. There was also tension between long-term fans of the game and newcomers to the series. However, the hit show has been nominated for 16 awards at the 2025 Emmys.
Several points of contention among critics have been aimed at Ramsey since the show’s debut, some of which point at their acting chops, while others have slammed the show’s casting, arguing that Ramsey looks nothing like the character they’re based on.
The Last Of Us co-creator Neil Druckmann also said they weren’t bothered about casting actors who looked exactly like their game counterparts. “It’s just different priorities and how you approach it,” Druckmann explained. “We need people to really capture the essence of those characters and we value performance over anything else.”
In a recent appearance on The Awardist podcast (via The Hollywood Reporter), Ramsey addressed the hate ad admitted that they try their best to “steer clear” of the show’s “louder critics”: “There’s nothing I can do about it anyway. The show is out. There’s nothing that can be changed or altered. So I’m like, there’s not really any point in reading or looking at anything.”
“People are of course entitled to their opinions. But it doesn’t affect the show, it doesn’t affect how the show continues or anything in any way. They’re very separate things to me. So no, I just don’t really engage.”
Ramsey went on to tell the show’s critics that they aren’t being forced to watch season three: “You don’t have to watch it. If you hate it that much, the game exists. You can just play the game again,” they said. “If you do want to watch it, hope you enjoy it.”
Season three will include Ramsey’s character Ellie, but will primarily focus on Kaitlyn Dever’s Abby – the antagonist of season two – and her retelling of the events that transpired in season two.
In July, it was announced that The Last Of Us co-creator Neil Druckmann would be stepping away as co-showrunner on the HBO adaptation to focus on making more games. Fellow Naughty Dog employee Halley Gross (who worked as a writer and producer on the TV show) also confirmed she’d be leaving the project. It means Mazin will have total creative control over the future of The Last Of Us.
Season two of The Last Of Us scored a four-star review from NME, with Nick Levine writing: “At its best, The Last Of Us is unsettling enough to make you question your own hypothetical moral code. When every day is about survival and making sense of post-apocalyptic chaos, does taking a life become easier, or somehow even harder? This show doesn’t just go deep narratively – it also cuts deep emotionally.”

Additionally, Hernandez asked Bella a few more questions in Spanish, and Bonnie answered her, not missing a beat. Ultimately, Hernandez revealed that her mini-me not only speaks English and Spanish, but she also speaks Mandarin.
