First Fully AI-Generated Movie Flops at China Box Office

Just as the first chapter of Elon Musk’s AI-produced version of The Odyssey was turning off viewers in the United States, the first feature-length AI-generated movie widely released in China was flopping at the box office.
The film, the sci-fi thriller Sanxingdui: Future Past, was released last week and only grossed an estimated $198,000, according to the French wire service Agence France-Presse.
There have been several other AI-generated feature films in limited release in other countries. But with 10,000-plus opening-day screenings, Future Past marks the first longform AI film to get a true wide release with reported box office numbers in a major territory, arguably marking the first real commercial test of the technology for feature-length projects. The film’s early ticket sales were reportedly about 12 percent of its 10 million yuan budget (about $1.5 million).
According to the AFP, Jiang Defu, CEO of the film’s production company Bona Film Group, told Chinese film outlet Yuli that the film nonetheless represented an important experiment. “We are the first to try it, the first to get a theatrical release permit and the first to be tested by the audience. I think that is not easy at all.”
One moviegoer told the outlet, “In terms of quality, compared with human production, it still falls short.”
That said, the technology is hardly bound to the fate of a single film. In China, AI has taken over the production of short online films (microdramas), with 95 percent being AI-generated, according to Fortune. A feature-length AI-generated hit seems only a matter of time.
Future Past is a 100-minute film inspired by archaeological finds from the Sanxingdui civilization. Appropriately enough, the film is about a future when a superintelligent AI has spread across the globe and humanity has handed control to algorithms, which plunges the world into a crisis.
Previous feature-length movies that gained limited release include India’s Love You, a 95-minute musical, released in May 2025, and Malaysia’s Pirate Queen: Zheng Yi Sao, which was released in January.

Heidi Klum Reveals 2026 Halloween Costume: Severed Hand

It wouldn’t be Halloween without Heidi Klum, as the star revealed yet another jaw-dropping costume at her signature party on Saturday night.
The Queen of Halloween, as she has become known, celebrated the 25th anniversary of her NYC Halloween party this year, and Klum took it to the next level as she showed up as a severed hand.
She arrived in a truck covered in red “danger” sings, helped to the ground by actors in yellow hazmat suits. Klum’s elaborate costume includes a bloody wrist and her head at the center of the hand, with fingers featuring rings and a fresh manicure; she revealed in red carpet interviews it was an intricate recreation of her own hand. The star appeared without husband Tom Kaulitz, who has dressed up alongside her in recent years.
Klum is hosting the event, presented by Apothic and Butterfinger, at Cathédrale Restaurant at Moxy East Village. The party has become one of Spooky Season’s most iconic events, as Klum always turns up in an elaborate look — in recent years, she’s transformed into Medusa, E.T., a peacock, Fiona from Shrek, Jessica Rabbit and famously, a worm.
The supermodel has been teasing glimpses at her costume on her Instagram, teasing her transformation all day long while asking her followers to submit their guesses on what she would become. Klum collaborates on her costumes with special effects makeup designer Mike Marino, who won an Emmy for his work on The Penguin. Marino revealed in a recent interview that “this costume this year is one of the most elaborate costumes ever made. It’s so difficult to do and just the complication of it is really challenging.”
Klum herself promised earlier this year to People that her look was “very, very bloody” and “goes very well with red wine;” she has partnered with Apothic Wines on limited-edition Apothic x Heidi Klum Type ‘A’ Blood Bags, a Halloween collectible inspired by the look of blood bags that were also served at the party.

Ricki Lake claims Rosie O’Donnell judged her facelift, then got one

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Ricki Lake admitted to feeling a little judged by her friend Rosie O’Donnell following her facelift in 2024.
During an episode of “The Weekend View” she was co-hosting, the 58-year-old actress shared that she chose to get a facelift after losing “40 pounds naturally without the use of pharmaceuticals,” saying “we just went south.”
“I was not trying to reverse the clock and look like I’m 20,” she explained. “I have my natural gray hair. I really own my age and I love the age I’m at.”
While she was happy with how her procedure turned out, Lake explained that not everyone in her circle was completely supportive of her decision to go under the knife.

She said that O’Donnell, who she considers “a really good friend,” was a bit “judgy” upon hearing Lake had decided to go through with the cosmetic surgery.
“She would admit it that she was judgy of myself and a few of my friends that went to this doctor and had these amazing results,” Lake said. “She’s like, ‘Why do you need it?’ And then, sure enough, she lost a bunch of weight on Mounjaro, and she went and had it done.”
O’Donnell revealed she went through with the same procedure in a Substack post shared in May. She also shared a lengthy Instagram post about why she chose to do it, writing she had assigned herself “as head of all women who would never – ever” get a facelift.
She admitted to thinking it was “a betrayal” of feminism, aging and “of our team of women worldwide.” Her opinion on the matter changed, she wrote, when she lost 50 pounds.

“It wasn’t wrinkles—it was gravity,” she wrote. “I’d look in the mirror and think, this isn’t aging, this is … melting with intention.”
While on “The View,” Lake went into detail about what exactly she had done, sharing she did not get her eyes done, opting for “a deep-plane lower face and neck lift and a CO2 laser.”
“I’m thrilled with my results. And I love my doctor. And I’m not gonna gate keep here. Dr. Alan Foulad in Los Angeles. He’s very special,” she said. “He’s wonderful, and he’s a master.”

Lake previously spoke about her decision to get a facelift after weight loss, telling the “Inside Edit” podcast in March that she “didn’t do any research” before deciding “very impulsively to have my face done.”

She explained that it all came together very quickly. After having her consultation appointment in mid-June, she booked a surgery date for mid-July and “never looked back.”
“I had just lost 40 pounds, and I had this hanging,” she said, pointing to the area under her chin. “And it wasn’t just like that I didn’t like what I saw or wanted to look younger. I have gray hair. It’s not about that. It’s like, I had an appendage hanging that wasn’t going to grow back, like come back up.”

Lynn Krieger — the wife of the legendary guitarist of The Doors, Robby Krieger — is dead … TMZ has learned.
Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ … Lynn died in her sleep Thursday after battling a longtime illness.

Law enforcement also received a call for a natural death. Her official cause of death is not known at this time.
Lynn met Robby and the rest of The Doors at a New York City nightclub in 1967. They married in 1972 and had one child together — a son named Waylon.
She was 79.

‘Nobody Wants This’ star Tovah Feldshuh addresses ‘tensions’ around Palestine

“Nobody Wants This” star Tovah Feldshuh swears there is no squabbling amongst the cast over the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
“Tensions are NOT RISING. Profound differences of opinion are,” Feldshuh, 77, wrote via Threads on Friday, October 30, addressing rumors the cast is feuding. “Please do not conflate the two — And none of it will be brought to the set.”
She continued, “I deeply enjoy filming NWT and hope we are chosen to go on for a fourth season.”
Last month, Adam Brody, who plays a rabbi in the Netflix series, spoke up about the Middle East strife.
“I have spoken a lot about it privately. I haven’t spoken much about it publicly,” the “O.C.” alum shared in GQ. “Put me down as thinking it’s a genocide. Put me down as wanting a free Palestine.
“It’s awful that it’s taken so much death and misery, but it does feel like it’s reaching a breaking point that it should have a while ago. I’m hopeful that another administration can really do some good and correct some of these policies that are helping that situation be as awful as it is.”
Feldshuh, who plays Brody’s mother, Bina, in the series, vehemently disagrees with her on-screen son.

“To accuse the Jewish people of genocide is wild,” she told The Post. “It’s right out of Hitler’s playbook. You take the victim and you make the victim the perpetrator.”
“My job, as Bina but also as Tovah, is to love the people on set at my place of work, to be kind,” she said.
Rabbi Steve Leder, who was the technical adviser on the show’s first season, has also blasted Brody, labeling him an “ignorant Jew.”
The series follows Rabbi Noah Roklov (Brody), who is in a relationship with Joanne, a non-Jewish sex podcaster, played by Kristen Bell.
It is loosely based on creator Erin Foster’s relationship with now-husband Simon Tikhman.
Season 3 of the rom-com series recently dropped.

Savannah Chrisley shares pointed message after fraudster husband Jason Galanis reveal

Savannah Chrisley has a pointed message for those who are critical of her recently revealed engagement, secret marriage and pregnancy.
Posting to her Instagram Story on Saturday, Chrisley, 29, reflected that it had been a “whirlwind” week, and that the “world can be so incredibly cruel.”
The “Chrisley Knows Best” alum indeed had a week full of headlines: She first announced she was pregnant and engaged in an Instagram video Tuesday. It was subsequently revealed that her fiancé is convicted fraudster Jason Galanis, 56. And then it was further uncovered that she and Galanis secretly tied the knot on July 14 at a Baptist church in the Cayman Islands, months before publicly announcing their engagement and pregnancy.
“People can be quick to judge, quick to condemn, and slow to show grace,” she wrote. “But as I sit here looking out at God’s beautiful creation, I’m reminded of something so much greater than the noise around me …”
“The world may try to steal your peace, but it can never take away what God has promised you,” she continued.
“I’ve learned that you don’t have to defend what God has already ordained. You don’t have to fight every battle, answer every accusation, or convince the world of what God already knows to be true,”
“Sometimes the greatest act of faith is simply being still, choosing love when you’re met with hate, extending grace when none is given, and trusting that Jesus is working even in the moments that hurt the most. My heart is full. My blessings are immeasurable. And my faith is stronger than any storm this world could ever bring. Because at the end of the day, hate will never have the final word. JESUS WILL. And LOVE ALWAYS WINS.”
“Thank You, Jesus, for a peace this world cannot give and a love this world cannot take away,” she concluded.
Chrisley put the location of her post as the Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Florida.
Galanis previously made headlines when President Donald Trump commuted his prison sentence in March 2025.
In September 2020, he was sentenced to more than 14 years in prison for his role in two schemes, including one that defrauded a Native American tribe and investors out of tens of millions of dollars.
In addition to prison time, Galanis, who was once dubbed “Porn’s New King,” was ordered to forfeit about $80 million in proceeds and pay an equal amount in restitution.
Galanis was an associate of Hunter Biden who testified in the impeachment inquiry into former President Joe Biden in March 2024 while he was still behind bars.
Chrisley, however, has defended him as her “protector” and “fiercest fighter,” as well as her “most loyal person.”
