This year fans will be treated to not one, not two but three characters played by Vanessa Hudgens in The Princess Switch 3: Romancing The Star. Hudgens reprises her roles as Margaret, Stacey and Fiona, and this time the gang is tasked with solving a heist. But how exactly did the makers of the movie pull off this modern take on The Prince and the Pauper? Director Mike Rohl explained to Newsweek....
Remember that awesomely-bad college football movie with James Caan, Omar Epps, Halle Berry? The one where Steve Lattimer smashed his head through a bunch of windshields? There’s a reason “The Program” — which chronicles the fictional ESU Timberwolves’ turbulent season — remains the ultimate college football cult classic. It’s not a comedy (“Necessary Roughness”). It’s not a tragedy (“We Are Marshall"). It’s not feel good (“Rudy”) or feel bad (“The Express”)....

Man City hold Alexis talks The Frenchman joined Spurs on deadline day of last summer from Newcastle United, becoming the club’s joint-most expensive signing in history in the process. Spurs would go on to mount a title challenge and finish second in the Premier League, whilst also reaching the semi-finals of the FA Cup, but Sissoko was a bit-part player after he failed to impress manager Mauricio Pochettino. Sissoko played 90 minutes in the Premier League just twice - against Sunderland in September and Leicester City in May - and he has now suggested that he could leave the club after one season....
In the nine weeks since the mockumentary-style sitcom premiered on December 7, the buzz surrounding the new Quinta Brunson-created sitcom has grown to epic proportions. With record-breaking MP35 ratings and a never-ending sea of memes and social media posts responding to every new episode, Abbott Elementary’s ascent has put Brunson (who stars as Janine Teagues, a second grade teacher at the fictional Willard R. Abbott Elementary School) and her supporting cast squarely in the spotlight....
A 15-month investigation by reporters at The Los Angeles Times and Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism found the Tomb is barely holding it together as it is—but rising sea levels and higher temperatures triggered by anthropogenic climate change could tip it over the edge and leak (more) toxic waste into the surrounding areas. Runit Dome was built in the 1970s to store more than 3.1 million cubic feet of nuclear debris after years of atomic testing conducted by the U....
Barcelona travelled to the Italian capital on Tuesday evening clutching a three-goal advantage but will return to Catalunya empty-handed. Lionel Messi and Co. were 4-1 winners in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie against Roma and looked comfortable in making their way to the final four. However, a 3-0 victory for the Serie A side at Stadio Olimpico in the decisive leg sent Roma through in their place, with the result sparking jubilation in Italy but devastation in Spain....
Kane, who is now starring for north London rivals Tottenham and set to captain England at the 2018 World Cup, was on the Gunners’ books at the age of eight. He was, however, to be shown the door, leaving him with a chip on his shoulder that made him all the more determined to prove his worth. Two Golden Boots and more than 100 Premier League goals have seen him do just that, with a former Director of the Arsenal Youth Academy conceding that a poor judgement call was made on Kane in his younger years....
The Grand Rapids Police Department received reports on Monday of several headstones at the Ahavas Achim Cemetery being vandalized. The graves were painted with pro-Trump slogans as the president made his final campaign rally of 2020 in Grand Rapids on Monday night.

Netherlands centre-back Van Dijk will join Liverpool for £75 million, a record fee for a defender, when the January transfer window opens. The deal has been met with doubt by many pundits for a player who has struggled to hit top form since returning from a foot injury, but Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp stated is convinced the signing will prove a shrewd one for the Reds. And Saints boss Pellegrino is equally confident his side will be stronger collectively once the money has been reinvested....
Building off Season 5’s introduction of a moving train and opening of the train station, Activision will bring a multistop underground subway into the “Warzone” fray. With that change comes renewed worries about campers and questions about how it will influence the flow of game play. At the very least, it should provide a refresh to a mode that has now been out for six months. MORE: PS5 vs. Xbox Series X duel heats up...
Barca host Sporting CP in the Champions League on Tuesday, with their spot in the knockout stages as Group D winners already secured. That might be just as well for Valverde, who only has Gerard Pique and Thomas Vermaelen to choose from as fit senior centre-backs after Samuel Umtiti suffered a hamstring injury during Saturday’s 2-2 draw against Celta Vigo. The France centre-back joins Mascherano in the treatment room – with the veteran defensive player recently speaking of his time at Camp Nou coming to an end ....
The three-time African Champions are paired with Croatia, Iceland and Argentina in Group D. Their opening fixture is against the Fiery Ones on July 16th before games against debutant Iceland and Jorge Sampaoli’s star-studded side. And the right-back is confident of the team making it out, particularly targeting Nigeria’s first win over La Albiceleste at the finals, with failure to do so in past four attempts. “I think we have a really good team – and if you see the group we can make it into the next round," Ebuehi told Goal....
A second-half red card to Laurent Koscielny led to the capitulation on Tuesday as Arsenal were humbled 5-1 at the Emirates Stadium to lose 10-2 on aggregate. Horror show spells the end for Wenger Walcott had given the hosts the lead in the last-16 second leg, but goals from Robert Lewandowski, Arjen Robben and Douglas Costa were followed by an Arturo Vidal brace. The England international said his team were hurting following their latest heavy defeat....
Antonio Conte’s side ceded top spot in Champions League Group C and were left with an uphill task when Stephan El Shaarawy clattered home a stunning opener inside the first minute. The former AC Milan youngster doubled Roma’s advantage before the break and Diego Perotti took advantage of a flagging Chelsea to drive home a superb third after the hour. Chelsea’s defence, so often impregnable last season, shambled towards full time and were indebted to goalkeeper Courtois for not being on the end of an even heavier loss....
Ancelotti was sacked 24 hours after Bayern were beaten 3-0 by Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League, with former boss Heynckes announced as his replacement until the end of the season after Willy Sagnol had initially been put in temporary charge. Der FCB 13/2 to win CL President Uli Hoeness claimed Ancelotti lost the support of five senior players at the club and there have been reports in Germany that his laid-back training sessions had begun to frustrate some of the squad....
The Premier League leaders head to Crystal Palace on Sunday, where victory would extend their record-breaking winning run in the top-flight to 19 matches – the same as the Bundesliga best Guardiola established with Bayern Munich in 2013-14 – and open up a 16-point advantage over second-place Chelsea. It is a far cry from the former Barcelona coach’s debut season in England, where City only made sure of Champions League qualification in the final round of fixtures and finished trophyless....
The Premier League champions deservedly won 1-0 at Bournemouth courtesy of a second-half strike from Eden Hazard, enough to move them back into fourth position. Chelsea 18/1 to win Premier League But free-scoring leaders Manchester City also won on Saturday – beating West Brom 3-2 at the Hawthorns – ensuring they remain nine points clear of Conte’s men, having made the best-ever start to a Premier League season after 10 games....
