Actor and comedian Anthony Clark has died, according to his former Yes, Dear co-star Mike O'Malley.

Clark was 62.

O'Malley shared photos of Clark in a social media post Wednesday and remembered him as a "hilarious guy."

"When my wife Lisa and I were dating back in the mid-nineties, Anthony was already famous in Boston, regularly selling out comedy shows," O'Malley wrote in the caption of an Instagram post. "The first time we saw him at The Comedy Connection we laughed and laughed and laughed. He was so unique -- one of those comics who is laughing along with you at the absurdity of his stories and observations and it just made you laugh harder because he was laughing."

He added, "I was a fan before I was a friend."

O'Malley portrayed Jimmy Hughes opposite Clark's Greg Warner in Yes, Dear, which ran for six seasons from 2000 to 2006.

The actor and producer said he last spoke to Clark less than a month ago.

"We spoke on the phone three weeks ago. He had us laughing loudly as he always did," he wrote.

O'Malley's post also included several photos from the last episode of Yes, Dear, which he noted "ended twenty years ago after 122 episodes."

"He invested his money well and essentially retired after we wrapped," O'Malley wrote, referring to Clark. "Rest in peace, Tony."

Actor and comedian Nick Swardson also paid tribute to Clark in an Instagram post Wednesday, which included a throwback photo of the two together.

"This is my friend Anthony Clark. One of my best friends for a long time. He was known for the TV shows ‘Boston Common' 'Yes, Dear' and the movie 'The Rock'. He was a massive stand up out of Boston and I opened for him for years," he captioned the post.

"I had so many great times with this dude," Swardson continued. "Non stop laughs. I hope he is at peace now. RIP Tony."

Clark's long-time manager, Barry Katz, confirmed Clark's death in a statement to ABC News on Thursday but did not provide further details.

"One of the funniest and most talented stand-up comedian/actors I have ever had the pleasure of watching," Katz said. "It was an honor to represent him and he will be missed for the joy, happiness, and love he brought to everyone he worked with and the audiences that were blessed to see his undeniable performances."

Wrote some songs about Ricky, now they make their red carpet debut.

Ariana Grande and her boyfriend, Ricky Alvarez, made their red carpet debut at the world premiere of the film Focker-in-Law in New York City on Wednesday.

Grande wore a white and gray gown with a plaid pattern and white floral embellishments. Alvarez was dressed in a black blazer over a white button-down shirt and jeans.

The pair rekindled their love story this year after they previously dated from April 2015 to July 2016. Grande and Alvarez originally met while he was a backup dancer for her Honeymoon Tour.

Their reignited relationship came after it was revealed Grande and her Wicked co-star Ethan Slater had ended their three-year relationship.

Grande first hinted she was back together with Alvarez at a Brooklyn stop on her Eternal Sunshine tour on July 13. She changed the lyric of her hit song "thank u, next" from “Wrote some songs about Ricky/ Now I listen and laugh” to “Wrote some songs about Ricky/ We always find our way back.”

The singer confirmed her reignited relationship with Alvarez in August by posting photos of them together in an Instagram photo dump. She has continued to share photos of him in the months that have followed, captioning a Nov. 2 photo of the pair cuddling with a heart and three exclamation points.

Alvarez also appeared in a video Grande posted to social media on Nov. 8 promoting her brand r.e.m. beauty's lip gloss. The video finds Alvarez kissing Grande on the lips over and over to try to guess the type of product she is wearing.

Grande stars alongside Ben Stiller and Robert De Niro in Focker-in-Law, which releases in theaters on Nov. 25. The film is the fourth in the Meet the Parents series.

Best believe she's still bejeweled.

Taylor Swift will be awarded the Sherry Lansing Leadership Award by The Hollywood Reporter during its annual Women in Entertainment breakfast gala.

Director Greta Gerwig will present the music superstar with the award at the magazine’s marquee event in LA. The gala will be attended by 600 industry leaders and VIPs and will coincide with the release of The Hollywood Reporter’s Women in Entertainment issue.

This award is named for Sherry Lansing, the first woman to head a Hollywood studio. Lansing is the former CEO of Paramount Pictures. The award recognizes trailblazers and philanthropists in entertainment and media. Former recipients of the honor include Gwyneth Paltrow, Adele, Charlize Theron, Reese Witherspoon, Viola Davis, Barbra Streisand, Shonda Rhimes, Oprah Winfrey, Diane Keaton and Meryl Streep.

"Taylor Swift took on an industry that has long underestimated women and won on every front: artistically, commercially and on the question of who owns her work. She reclaimed her catalog, set new terms for the artists who follow her and became the most popular musician in the world while doing it—and helping scores of other artists along the way. We're proud to honor her with the Sherry Lansing Leadership Award," The Hollywood Reporter editor-in-chief Maer Roshan said in a press release.

Lansing said she is so pleased to recognize Swift with the award that bears her name.

"Taylor has paved the way for women in music, demonstrating what is possible when a woman takes ownership of her work, her career, and her future. Equally impressive is her generosity and commitment to giving back. She is an extraordinary talent and a remarkable role model, and I could not be more proud to see her receive this award," Lansing said.

Gerwig is a four-time Oscar-nominated director known for helming the successful 2023 blockbuster Barbie. Her next film, Narnia: The Magician's Nephew, arrives in theaters on Feb. 12, 2027.

Irma P. Hall, the award-winning actress best known for her role in the 1997 film Soul Food, has died. She was 91.

Hall died Tuesday, Nov. 10, in Dallas, surrounded by loved ones, her family confirmed in a press release on Wednesday.

"Irma P Hall was a beloved actress, author, poet, educator, and public speaker whose contributions touched countless lives throughout her remarkable career," her family said in a statement to ABC News. "Her legacy of talent, dedication, and compassion will continue to inspire generations to come."

Hall's acting career spanned nearly five decades, with memorable roles in films including A Family Thing, The Ladykillers, Collateral and Patch Adams.

She gained widespread recognition for her portrayal of Big Mama Jo in Soul Food, which earned her an NAACP Image Award for outstanding supporting actress in a motion picture in 1998. She later reprised the role in the film's television adaptation.

Hall also received critical acclaim for her performance as Aunt T in the 1996 film A Family Thing, starring alongside Robert Duvall and James Earl Jones.

In 2004, she starred opposite Tom Hanks in the Coen brothers' remake of The Ladykillers, earning a Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival for her performance.

Born Irma Dolores Player on June 3, 1935, in Beaumont, Texas, Hall grew up in Chicago before returning to Texas to attend Texas College.

Before becoming an actress, she spent more than two decades teaching English and foreign languages in Dallas public schools.

Her acting career began after actor and director Raymond St. Jacques discovered her during a poetry reading in Dallas. She made her film debut in the 1973 movie Book of Numbers.

Hall went on to appear in numerous films and television shows, including Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, Beloved, Tyler Perry's Meet the Browns, Touched by an Angel and Chicago Fire.

Outside of Hollywood, Hall remained active in the Dallas arts community, helping establish the Dallas Minority Repertory Theatre. Her contributions to the performing arts are also recognized through the Irma P. Hall Black Theatre Awards, established in 2015.

Hall's daughter, Irma Hall Crayton, remembered her mother's impact as both an educator and actress.

"She started as a teacher in the classroom but ended up being a teacher to the world," Crayton said in the family's statement. "My mom used to always say, 'To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.' And she was just that to many people."

Hall was also a longtime member of Inspiring Body of Christ Church in Dallas, where she served as a church mother and remained involved in educational and theater programs.

Her family has requested privacy as they mourn her death and said details about funeral and memorial services will be announced at a later date.

There's a new doctor headed to Texas.

Karla Souza is set to star in the upcoming Grey's Anatomy spinoff set in West Texas, ABC Audio has confirmed. The actress, known for her role opposite Viola Davis in How to Get Away with Murder, will lead the new spinoff as the character Carolina "Lina" Hall.

Lina is a haunted and cynical doctor who runs a medical center in a small town in West Texas, according to an official description.

ABC ordered the currently untitled Grey's Anatomy spinoff series for the 2026-27 season back in May. The one-hour drama was given a straight to series order.

The new series is described as "an edgy drama about a team at a West Texas rural medical center — the last chance for care before miles of nowhere," according to its official logline.

It is co-created by Shonda Rhimes and Meg Marinis. The pair also executive produce the show alongside Betsy Beers and the original show's star, Ellen Pompeo. The new spinoff series is produced by Shondaland and 20th Television.

“I am incredibly excited to expand the Grey’s Anatomy universe. This opportunity will bring new characters and stories to life that will embody the same heart, emotion and connection audiences have loved from Grey's for more than two decades — all set in my home state of Texas," Marinis said in May. "I am so grateful to Shonda Rhimes for creating this dynamic world and feel so fortunate that I get to be a part of it.”

This new ABC show gives Marinis and Rhimes the opportunity to continue telling stories from the Grey's Anatomy universe. Netflix remains the home of Shondaland, however.

Season 23 of Grey's Anatomy premiered to ABC on Oct. 15. New episodes debut on Wednesdays. 

Disney is the parent company of ABC News and ABC.

Au revoir, Emily in Paris.

Netflix has released the teaser trailer for the sixth and final season of its popular romance series.

Lily Collins once again stars as the titular American marketing executive who moved overseas for work. The sixth season was filmed in both France and Greece. Darren Star created the show, which he also executive produces and writes for.

"Stepping into a new era of ambition and romance, Emily faces defining choices that test her ultimate loyalties," according to an official logline for the season. "But as unexpected career conflicts and shifting relationships force her to reevaluate where her true future lies, she must make one final choice between her career, her heart, and the life she’s built in Paris."

Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu, Ashley Park, Lucas Bravo, Lucien Laviscount, Samuel Arnold, Bruno Gouery, William Abadie, Minnie Driver and Paul Forman also star in season 6 the romance series.

The teaser looks back at all six seasons of the popular series, showing off all the friends Emily has made and romances she has been swept up in. It then shows new footage of Emily and Mindy (Park) deciding to vacation in Greece, which just so happens to be where Gabriel (Bravo) is living and working.

The pair run in to him at an outdoor market. "What are you doing here?" Mindy asks Gabriel as they all reunite.

Gabriel then asks them: "Are you ready?"

We aren't sure what exactly Gabriel's preparing them for, but he may as well have been asking fans of the show if they are ready to say goodbye. Netflix subscribers will do just that when Emily in Paris season 6 debuts on Dec. 24.

Cory and Topanga may have been endgame on Boy Meets World, but behind the scenes, Danielle Fishel was hoping for Topanga and Shawn.

In the new memoir Book Meets World: The Definitive Inside Story of the Hit Sitcom Boy Meets World, Fishel, Rider Strong and Will Friedle open up about behind-the-scenes stories from the making of their popular sitcom. In a passage from the memoir obtained by Entertainment Weekly, Fishel and Strong detail a romantic moment they shared while filming season 3 of Boy Meets World.

It all took place behind the scenes of the season 3 episode “The Happiest Show on Earth,” which is colloquially known as the series' Disney World episode. It finds Cory (Ben Savage) and Shawn (Strong) traveling to Florida so that Cory can win Topanga (Fishel) back after their breakup.

In real life, Fishel wrote she had a "full-blown crush" on Strong, while he had no idea about her feelings for him.

"I remember we were sitting in a van, waiting out the Florida rain. I said, ‘Danielle, let’s just go,’" Strong writes in the book. The then-teens then jumped out of the car, took each other's hands and spun around in the rain. Strong wrote it was a "very romantic moment."

Despite their connection, Fishel didn't tell Strong how she felt for him at the time. The actress revealed her crush 30 years later on a 2022 episode of their podcast Pod Meets World.

After Fishel made the revelation, Strong said, "That’s not true! You’ve never told me that."

Fishel said it was very true, adding that her crush "started maybe later in season 1 and definitely through season 2."

Fishel continued, describing that she felt she would have been too much of a "stereotypical LA girl" for Strong, but that she crushed on him anyway. It started when he complimented her during an acting class.

"Oh my god, I love you," Fishel remembered thinking, adding that the pair developed "a very nice, deep friendship" over the years, filled with "meaningful conversations."

Boy Meets World aired on ABC from 1993 to 2000. Its spinoff, Girl Meets World, ran from 2014 to 2017 on Disney Channel.

Disney is the parent company of ABC News, ABC and Disney Channel.

You've got a reboot.

A new version of the classic 1998 romantic comedy You've Got Mail is on the way. Warner Bros. Pictures has tapped director Jason Orley to helm a new take on the beloved film that starred Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, ABC Audio has learned.

Orley is writing the film's script based on a previous take on the project by Deborah Kaplan and Harry Elfont. Its plot details are being kept under wraps for the time being.

The original You've Got Mail follows business rivals Joe Fox (Hanks) and Kathleen Kelly (Ryan), who fall in love through anonymous correspondence online while both are unaware that Joe's book superstore is looking to put Kathleen's independent book shop out of business.

This new version of You've Got Mail is part of a long tradition of adaptations of its classic story.

Norah Ephron directed the 1998 film based on a screenplay she wrote with Delia Ephron. That film itself is an adaptation of the 1937 play Perfumeire by Miklós László, which was adapted into the 1940 film The Shop Around the Corner. The Christmas classic starred Jimmy Stewart and Margaret Sullavan.

The Shop Around the Corner was later remade into the 1949 musical In the Good Old Summertime, which starred Judy Garland and featured the screen debut of Garland's then-3-year-old daughter Liza Minnelli. Another musical, the 1963 Broadway show She Loves Me, is also an adaptation of The Shop Around the Corner.

Orley has just wrapped post-production on his film Close Personal Friends for Amazon MGM Studios. That upcoming comedy stars Brie Larson, Jack Quaid, Lilly Collins and Henry Golding. The director previously also helmed the films Big Time Adolescence and I Want You Back.

This is 100% his look.

Christopher Briney stars in the official trailer for Prime Video's upcoming holiday film Clashing Through The Snow. The Summer I Turned Pretty actor stars alongside Michelle Randolph in the new romantic comedy film.

"A holiday snowstorm strands rival publishing editors Ryan Mitchell (Briney) and Hannah Hendricks (Randolph) at the airport, forcing them into a shared rental car for a cross-country race to New York," according to its official synopsis. "With budget cuts threatening to eliminate one of their jobs, both are secretly chasing a career-saving deal, turning every mile into a high-stakes showdown. But between roadside mishaps, unexpected detours and small-town charm, the holiday spirit has a way of melting even the fiercest rivalry into something neither of them saw coming."

The film's trailer harkens to a different era by featuring a narrator who sets up the plot's Christmas-themed shenanigans. It's set to Olivia Rodrigo's brand-new holiday song, "take me home (4 christmas)."

After Briney's Ryan and Randolph's Hannah are stranded at the same airport due to a snowstorm, the pair are forced to share the last rental car in order to get to New York in time.

It clearly wasn't Ryan's first choice. "I'd rather be trapped in a Porta Potti at Burning Man during an earthquake," he tells Hannah, before saying, "But here we are. Let's split the car and drive to New York together."

Lukas Gage, Andrew Schulz, Julia Fox and Paris Hilton also star in the film that was directed by Carlson Young.

Clashing Through The Snow premieres on Prime Video Nov. 23.

Season 1 of Crave/HBO Max's Heated Rivalry, starring Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie, is currently in theaters for a limited time. Regal announced Tuesday that the final two episodes of the season will be released to 4DX starting Nov. 16. 

"Fans made it loud and clear that they wanted more Heated Rivalry on the big screen, so we're turning up the heat," said Brooks LeBoeuf, senior vice president of U.S. Content at Regal. "Episodes five and six bring years of tension between Shane and Ilya to a boiling point, and 4DX takes it all to another level."

The paired screenings will be available at all 59 Regal 4DX locations nationwide, as well as at participating theaters operated by other U.S. exhibitors.

Jordan Fisher will take on the Prince-centric musical's main role in the spring of 2027, playing an ambitious musician named "The Kid."

"It's so special," Fisher told Good Morning America Tuesday after the casting announcement was made.

"For the first time in my career, I play every instrument I've ever played. Six instruments in this show ... I'm doing it all in 3-inch heels, backwards, up and in the middle of a snowstorm. It is the most rewarding, artistically satisfying thing that I have ever gotten to do."

Purple Rain is based on Prince's Oscar-winning 1984 film and his Grammy-winning 1984 album of the same name. The musical will feature over 20 of Prince's biggest hits, including "When Doves Cry" and "I Would Die 4 U."

Purple Rain comes to New York City after a successful Minneapolis run, which starred Kris Kollins as "The Kid," Rachel Webb as Apollonia and Jared Howelton as Morris.

The original Harry Potter has no plans to watch the new iteration.

Daniel Radcliffe said he isn't sure if he will stream HBO's upcoming series adaptation of the Harry Potter books in a new interview with The Associated Press.

“I don’t know if I will [watch], honestly,” Radcliffe said. "I’ve been in a lot of Harry Potter already … and also I don’t watch any TV."

Radcliffe said he needs to brush up on some TV classics before he adds anything else to his watchlist.

"I haven't seen Breaking Bad, I haven't seen Mad Men, I haven't seen some of the, like, the real classics," Radcliffe said. 

The actor also noted the length of the upcoming show.

"Eight hours is a lot of anything to watch," Radcliffe said.

The first season of the series, titled Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, will air on HBO and debut on HBO Max on Christmas Day 2026.

Dominic McLaughlin leads the cast as Harry Potter. He stars alongside Alastair Stout and Arabella Stanton, who play Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. The show is described as a faithful adaptation of the books by J.K. Rowling, who serves as an executive producer.

Earlier in the interview, Radcliffe said he has no advice for McLaughlin as he takes on the role that Radcliffe originated and played over the course of all eight Harry Potter films.

“I’m really truly in the business of not giving Dominic advice. He’s got it. He doesn’t need any advice from me. If I say something to you, then the next interview people have with him, they’ll be like, ‘Oh, and Dan said you should do this,’ and I’m like, I don’t want to haunt this poor child through interviews," Radcliffe said.

He continued: "So, I have no advice for him. He’s going to be amazing, and you know, I hope that I will, I think I will, get to meet him someday — and I’m very excited about that."

Nicolas Cage is opening up about his latest movie role and the happiness he has found in his personal life.

The Oscar-winning actor, 62, stars as legendary NFL coach John Madden in the upcoming film Madden, directed by David O. Russell and executive produced by Good Morning America co-anchor Michael Strahan.

In an interview with ABC News' Chris Connelly that aired on Monday on GMA, Cage spoke about his transformation into the Super Bowl-winning coach, his experience working with co-star Christian Bale and the personal connection he found with Madden.

Madden, who died in 2021 at age 85, led the Oakland Raiders to victory in 1977's Super Bowl XI before becoming an Emmy-winning NFL broadcaster and the face of the popular Madden NFL video game franchise.

For the role, Cage gained 25 pounds and wore prosthetics to transform into the football legend.

Despite portraying one of the most recognizable figures in football history, Cage said his own experience with the sport growing up was not quite as successful.

"I was trying to play touch football and I think I made a play for the wrong team," Cage recalled. "I was wearing an Incredible Hulk T-shirt."

"I must've looked like the biggest geek," he continued, laughing as he recalled other children teasing him. "I never played sports again."

Cage, who went on to win an Academy Award for his performance in Leaving Las Vegas and star in films including Moonstruck and Face/Off, said he found a personal connection to Madden through his late father, August Coppola.

"What I really appreciated about John Madden is that he's a teacher," Cage said. "My father was a professor of comparative literature and I really cherish teachers."

He continued, "The more I listened to him, the more apparent it became to me that he really cared, and he wanted to empower these athletes and guide them."

Cage also opened up about working with Bale, who portrays Raiders owner Al Davis in the film.

The actor said the two had a natural chemistry on set that allowed them to improvise during scenes.

"We were flying, and the strangest inspirations would come to me," Cage said, recalling how he drew inspiration from a Bill Murray sketch on Saturday Night Live.

"That's what happens when you're riffing," he said. "With an actor like Christian, you can do that."

Cage said he and Bale also had different approaches to preparing for their scenes, particularly while spending time together in the makeup trailer.

"Normally I'm alone, isolated," Cage said, explaining that he typically uses the time to focus on the emotions needed for a scene.

Bale, however, preferred listening to music.

"He's playing punk rock and whatnot," Cage said with a laugh. "But I got used to it."

"He's like, 'Why are you so quiet, Nic? Why are you so quiet?'" Cage said, joking that his response was, "Because I'm working!"

Outside of his acting career, Cage also reflected on his personal life, including being temporarily displaced from his Malibu home because of a sinkhole in his driveway.

Despite the disruption, Cage said he remains grateful for his life, particularly his relationship with his daughter.

"I'm fine. I'm very happy ... I'm not complaining. I'm not a victim by any stretch of the imagination. I never will be," he explained. "I am someone that is very thankful and I feel blessed that I have my daughter and we have a wonderful relationship."

"I'm happy. I mean, that's not something that I say often because it's such a fragile word. It's probably better to say I'm content," he added.

When Connelly brought up a line from the film, "If you love life, life will love you back," Cage said he agreed with the sentiment.

"I agree with that. I totally agree with that," Cage said. "What we all have here is a gift. Let's enjoy it."

Madden opens in select theaters Nov. 11 and will be available to stream on Prime Video Nov. 18.

Overcompensating is so back.

Prime Video has announced the release date for season 2 of the hit comedy series from creator and star Benito Skinner. The second season of the show will debut on Feb. 17, 2027. All episodes of the season will be available to stream at once.

The first season of Overcompensating premiered in May 2025. It followed Benny (Skinner), a closeted former homecoming king who heads to college and "becomes fast friends with Carmen (Wally Baram), a high school outsider on a mission to fit in at all costs," according to its official synopsis. "With guidance from Benny’s older sister (Mary Beth Barone) and her campus-legend boyfriend (Adam DiMarco), Benny and Carmen juggle horrible hookups, flavored vodka, and fake IDs. Deeply funny and personal, the show explores the lengths to which we all overcompensate while on the path to finding out who we really are."

Rish Shah, Owen Thiele, Connie Britton, Kyle MacLachlan and Kaia Gerber also appeared in season 1. Charli XCX guest starred in the first season and served as its executive music producer.

The show was renewed for season 2 in September 2025. At the time, Skinner took to Instagram to celebrate the renewal news.

"WE’RE OFFICIALLY GOING BACK 2 SCHOOL," he captioned his announcement post. "Thank you so much for all your insane love for this show ... And thank you for being so patient while Daddy’s been cooking season 2. One guy at Hudson News told me he’s watched it 7 times… that’s mental illness my love <3."
