Why Molly Ringwald, Judd Nelson don't appear in Andrew McCarthy's ‘Brats' documentary

Molly Ringwald may have been one of the biggest stars of the Brat Pack era, but she doesn’t appear in Andrew McCarthy’s new Hulu documentary “Brats.”

Both Ringwald and her “The Breakfast Club” co-star Judd Nelson turned down requests to appear in the documentary, McCarthy told “Entertainment Tonight.”

“I mean, they both are in the film in a sense that there’s a lot of clips and interviews and things,” said the actor and director, who played Ringwald’s love interest in the teen rom-com “Pretty in Pink.”

‘The Sopranos' cast reunites for 25th anniversary, tearfully reflects on James Gandolfini

It’s been 25 years since “The Sopranos” debuted and the show’s influence continues to be felt, with many citing it as the greatest TV show ever made. Several of the show’s stars, along with series creator David Chase, recently sat down with TODAY’s Tom Llamas to discuss the drama’s enduring legacy at the Tribeca Film Festival, where the documentary “Wise Guy: David Chase and the Sopranos” premiered.

“The Sopranos” remains a show people love to talk about all these years later, prompting Llamas to ask why that is the case.

“Why? Because the writing was incredible. Because of streaming, it’s all over the world. More people watch ‘The Sopranos’ now than watched it when it was on originally,” said Steve Schirripa, who played Tony Soprano’s brother-in-law Bobby Baccalieri.

An emotional win for theaters, Hollywood: ‘Inside Out 2' scores massive $155 million opening

Hollywood’s summer movie anxieties gave way to joy this weekend with the massive debut of Disney and Pixar’s “ Inside Out 2.” The animated sequel earned $155 million in ticket sales from 4,440 theaters in the U.S. and Canada, according to studio estimates Sunday.

Not only is it the second-highest opening weekend in Pixar’s 29 years of making films and the second-biggest animated opening ever (behind only the $182.7 million launch of “Incredibles 2” in 2018); It’s also the biggest of 2024, and since “Barbie.” With an estimated $140 million from international showings, “Inside Out 2” had a staggering, and record-breaking, $295 million global start.

Tony Chambers, who heads theatrical distribution for Disney, was confident that the film would do “extremely well.” But even he was surprised at how much it exceeded already high expectations.

‘The Outsiders' wins best musical and ‘Stereophonic' best play as women make strides at Tony Awards

“The Outsiders,” a gritty adaptation of the classic young adult novel, became the essence of a Broadway insider on Sunday, winning the Tony Award for best new musical on a night when women made strides.

The musical based on the beloved S. E. Hinton book is about rival gangs of haves and have-nots in 1960s Oklahoma. The win meant Angelina Jolie, a producer, landed her first Tony, too.

Producer Matthew Rego, in his acceptance speech, thanked Hinton, in the audience at Manhattan’s Lincoln Center: “Susie, I’m here to tell you that your story and its eternal message of love and family and staying gold has forever changed all of our lives.”
