• Suki Waterhouse, 34, spoke to Variety ahead of the release of her new album Loveland, describing Robert Pattinson as a muse for the record — a collection built around motherhood, nostalgia, and the way her relationship with him fundamentally changed after they had their daughter
• Waterhouse and Pattinson became engaged in December 2023 and welcomed a daughter in March 2024; they have kept the child’s life largely out of the public eye, and Waterhouse said they intend to keep it “as private as possible”
• On the emotional reality of early motherhood: “Internally, there’s been quite a lot of turmoil and just wondering if I’m doing the right thing. And especially, oh my God, the hormones right after you have a baby are so intense”
• On how the baby changed her relationship with Pattinson: “I don’t want to say back in love with my partner, because it sounds like I was out of it, which I was never. But it’s also a new relationship. Your old relationship has been wiped out… we’ve survived this”
• Waterhouse attended this year’s Met Gala in a plunging pink Michael Kors gown inspired by Greek statues carved from rose marble; she is best known as a star of Daisy Jones and The Six

Suki Waterhouse met Variety for a conversation in the Notting Hill pub across the street from the flat where she spent most of her 20s. She was already there when the reporter arrived, ordering a Coke and fries, curled up in an armchair in a Vivienne Westwood duster jacket. The setting was deliberate — she’s been feeling nostalgic, she said, and that feeling is at the center of her new album Loveland.

The album is also, in large part, about Robert Pattinson. Waterhouse — the model, actress, and singer who starred in Daisy Jones and The Six — told Variety she used her fiancé as a muse for the record, drawing on the way their relationship was reshaped after they had their daughter together in March 2024. The couple, who got engaged in December 2023, have kept their daughter almost entirely out of the public eye. “I think it really is possible” to protect a child’s privacy, she said, and they intend to do it.

What she was willing to share was the emotional texture of those first months of parenthood, which she described as genuinely destabilizing — even as something beautiful came out the other side. “Internally, there’s been quite a lot of turmoil and just wondering if I’m doing the right thing,” she told Variety. “And especially, oh my God, the hormones right after you have a baby are so intense.”

“A New Relationship”

The effect on her relationship with Pattinson was, by her description, a kind of reset. “It’s like [I got] belief back in myself,” she said, “and then also being… I don’t want to say back in love with my partner, because it sounds like I was out of it, which I was never. But it’s also a new relationship. Your old relationship has been wiped out, and so it’s building that new one and kind of celebrating the beauty in that, like, we’ve survived this.”

That dynamic — surviving something together, finding a new version of a relationship on the other side — is the emotional core she’s channeling into Loveland. The album also draws on nostalgia, which the Notting Hill setting made palpable: she is writing about the person she was in her 20s, in that flat across the street, and about who she’s become since.

The week before the Variety interview, she had been at the Met Gala, turning up in a plunging pink Michael Kors gown designed to evoke Greek statues carved from rose marble. The Loveland era is in full swing.

• A24 dropped the first teaser trailer for Primetime, in which Robert Pattinson plays To Catch a Predator host Chris Hansen — the film is set in 2006, the year the show both peaked and imploded
• Director Lance Oppenheim (Ren Faire, Some Kind of Heaven) makes his narrative feature debut; script by Ajon Singh
• Co-stars include Merritt Wever, Skyler Gisondo, Anna Faris, and Phoebe Bridgers; Pattinson is also a producer
• Ari Aster’s producing partner Lars Knudsen is among the producers; the film is an A24 release targeting Fall 2026 — likely awards season
• This is Pattinson’s fifth film of the year: he’s already got The Drama, The Odyssey, Dune: Part Three, and Here Comes the Flood — plus The Batman: Part II in production for 2027

The first thing you notice isn’t the face. It’s the voice.

In the new teaser trailer for Primetime, A24’s upcoming film about To Catch a Predator, Robert Pattinson opens his mouth and what comes out is an uncanny reconstruction of Chris Hansen — the flat Midwestern delivery, the performative gravity, the slight edge of a man who knows the cameras are rolling. Hollywood Reporter described it as Pattinson taking on Hansen’s “vocal patterns and tics with an eerie, off-kilter precision.” That lands. The vocal transformation is the whole show in this teaser, and it suggests something genuinely strange is coming in the fall.

The Film

The logline is short: “In 2006, To Catch a Predator host Chris Hansen sets out to make television history.” It tells you almost nothing and everything at the same time.

For anyone who needs the background: To Catch a Predator was a segment on Dateline NBC that ran from 2004 to 2007, eventually spinning off into its own series. The format was ritualistic — Hansen and a camera crew, working with law enforcement and adult decoys posing as minors online, would lure suspected predators to a sting house, then Hansen would walk in and deliver the confrontation. “You see how this looks, right?” Pattinson’s Hansen asks in the trailer. “At the end of the day, a man must be held accountable for the decisions that he makes.” The show ran for 20 episodes and drew millions of viewers per installment before becoming one of the most-watched true crime franchises in early YouTube history.

2006 was its apex and its collapse. In November of that year, Kaufman County assistant district attorney Bill Conradt shot himself as law enforcement and an NBC camera crew approached his home as part of a sting in Murphy, Texas. The operation had already yielded 25 arrests. Conradt’s death prompted the local district attorney to decline prosecution on all cases from the sting, triggered a wrongful death lawsuit from Conradt’s family, and led directly to the show’s cancellation. Deadline noted the trailer’s resemblance in texture to Dan Gilroy’s Nightcrawler — “Jake Gyllenhaal as a shady, ambulance-chasing L.A. stringer” — and the parallel is sharp. Both films appear to ask what happens when someone optimizes for camera-ready drama regardless of what it costs in the real world.

The point of view of Primetime isn’t explicit in the teaser. But the final line Pattinson delivers — “I’m Chris Hansen with Dateline NBC, and you’re about to be a part of television history” — carries a chill that doesn’t feel like admiration.

The Director

Lance Oppenheim is not a household name yet, but among people who pay attention to documentary filmmaking, he’s been one to watch. His 2020 film Some Kind of Heaven observed the retirees of a Florida retirement community with a mixture of warmth and existential dread that was hard to shake. Ren Faire, his 2024 HBO series, tracked the eccentric king of the Texas Renaissance Festival across a single year and turned into one of the stranger character studies in recent nonfiction television.

Primetime is his first narrative feature. The script is by Ajon Singh. Producers include Brian Kavanaugh-Jones, Fred Berger, Pattinson himself, Brighton McCloskey, Lars Knudsen (Ari Aster’s producing partner, who has been attached to some of the more interesting A24 projects in recent years), and Tyler Campellone. TheWrap also noted that Ari Aster is among the producers, which tells you something about the tone this film is apparently going for.

The Cast

Beyond Pattinson as Hansen, the film stars Merritt Wever, Skyler Gisondo, Anna Faris, and Phoebe Bridgers. Wever has spent the last several years doing the kind of character work that earns critical attention without always getting mainstream traction; Gisondo has been quietly impressive in supporting roles for years. Bridgers is a notable presence — she’s appeared in a handful of film and TV roles but this is the kind of project that suggests someone is being taken seriously as an actor, not just a musician with a SAG card.

Pattinson’s Year

At this point the list of Robert Pattinson’s 2026 films sounds like something a publicist invented to win a bet.

The Drama, his first A24 collaboration of the year alongside Zendaya, became the studio’s fourth-highest grossing film of all time — behind Marty Supreme, Everything Everywhere All at Once, and Civil War. Hollywood Reporter’s review praised his “natural, appealing performance, convincingly playing a relatively normal guy who begins to realize that his comfortable life with his quirky dream girl is not nearly as settled, or normal, as he once thought.”

After that: Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey this summer. Denis Villeneuve’s Dune: Part Three later in the year. Fernando Meirelles’ Here Comes the Flood with Denzel Washington. And now Primetime in the fall, which BroBible pointed out will be Pattinson’s fifth film this year — before he wraps The Batman: Part II for Matt Reeves, which began production earlier this month with a 2027 target.

The man who spent years politely escaping the shadow of Twilight is now, improbably, one of the most in-demand actors working. That he’s doing it by playing a Midwestern TV journalist who made his name catching child predators on camera — and doing it for the same studio that gave him his career renaissance — is the kind of detail that feels too fitting to be coincidence.

Primetime does not yet have an official release date. A24 says fall 2026. Given the company’s history with awards season, that probably means it won’t stay quiet for long.

• The new full-length trailer for Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey dropped and the internet immediately zeroed in on one word: “dad”
• Tom Holland, playing Telemachus, says “My dad is coming home” — and fans can’t decide if it’s a dealbreaker or completely fine
• Robert Pattinson’s line “You’re pining for a daddy you didn’t even know” is also drawing major attention — and major praise for his villain work
• The $250 million film, shot entirely on IMAX cameras, opens July 17, 2026, and is already shaping up to be the movie event of the year
• Nolan has defended his vision of the story as his own interpretation, not a period-accurate recreation

Two thousand years of mythology, a $250 million budget, the greatest living director, and an all-star cast that reads like the Avengers roster — and what has the internet decided to focus on? One three-letter word.

The new full-length trailer for Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey landed this week, and it’s genuinely breathtaking — sweeping IMAX vistas, the Trojan Horse rendered in fire and shadow, a glimpse of the Cyclops lurking in a dark cave, and a cast so stacked it almost feels unfair. But within hours of the trailer dropping, the conversation online had narrowed sharply to a single moment: Tom Holland, playing Odysseus’s son Telemachus, looking dead-serious into the camera and declaring, “My dad is coming home.”

Not “my father.” Not “my king.” Dad.

The line — delivered in a fully American accent, in a film set in 1200 BCE — hit viewers like a record scratch. “First time hearing ‘DAD’ in a historical epic film,” one YouTube commenter wrote. Another called it something “from a sitcom.” On X, one user posted: “‘Dad’? It’s Father. Modern terms have no place in this film” — though the discourse there was considerably more colorful in places, with at least one person admitting the word made them “scream in horror.”

The line doesn’t exist in isolation, either. It comes as a direct response to Robert Pattinson’s character Antinous, who leans into Telemachus and sneers: “You’re pining for a daddy you didn’t even know, like some sniveling bastard.” So there are two daddy references in quick succession, and the internet caught both of them.

One particularly sharp fan on YouTube compared Holland’s delivery to a very different famous son, writing that “‘My dad is coming home’ gave ‘My father will hear about this’ vibes” — a Harry Potter Draco Malfoy reference that somehow made perfect sense.

Robert Pattinson Is Winning the Internet Anyway

Here’s the thing: even the people most bothered by the word “dad” seem to agree that Robert Pattinson is doing something genuinely special with Antinous. His delivery of that line — cold, contemptuous, precise — has become one of the most-discussed moments in the trailer for all the right reasons.

“Say whatever you want, but I think Robert Pattinson is pretty solid casting for Antinous,” wrote @TristanPudde on X, adding that the character’s irritating quality is exactly the point — you’re supposed to hate him. @MovieTimePicks went further: “The way Robert Pattinson can deliver a line that is both a biological fact and a soul-crushing insult is why he’s the best in the business right now.”

Antinous, for those whose Greek mythology is a little rusty, is the most aggressive of the suitors who have descended on Ithaca in Odysseus’s absence, vying for Penelope’s hand — and, by extension, the throne. In the trailer, he tells Penelope flatly, “I want you to choose me,” and when she insists Odysseus is returning, he gives her a slow smile and says, “No, he’s not.” It’s genuinely unsettling. And then he’s seen unsheathing a blade.

Anne Hathaway’s Penelope, meanwhile, is clearly not the passive, weeping wife of some adaptations. She shuts Antinous down cold: “Ithaca’s king is coming back.” The trailer also shows her in tears later, admitting “that world is gone” — which raises some interesting questions about where the story goes.

Everything Else the New Trailer Reveals

Beyond the dialogue debate, there’s a lot to take in. The trailer opens with Charlize Theron as Calypso — the mythological nymph who holds Odysseus captive on her island for seven years — demanding, “Tell me what you remember.” Her scenes with Matt Damon’s Odysseus, who asks her to help him get home, have a haunted, otherworldly quality that feels unlike anything in Nolan’s previous work.

The Trojan Horse makes an appearance, shown in silhouette standing upright on two legs — a unique visual choice — with a soldier rappelling from its belly as troops storm a fortress. It’s a bold image, and a notable one, given that the Trojan Horse barely features in Homer’s original text. Nolan is clearly working from a broader canvas than the poem alone.

The Cyclops Polyphemus is teased in a dark cave sequence, emerging slowly from shadow with its single eye positioned high on the forehead. It’s creepy and effective. There’s also a glimpse of the massive whirlpool caused by the sea monster Charybdis, as Odysseus and his men row desperately against the current.

John Leguizamo appears as the servant Eumaeus — almost unrecognizable — in a scene where Telemachus confides in him about whether his father will ever return. And yes, there is a puppy. There is also, based on the imagery, a dead dog later in the film, which suggests that Odysseus’s loyal hound Argos — one of the most quietly devastating moments in the original poem — will make an appearance.

Zendaya (as Athena), Mia Goth, Lupita Nyong’o, Jon Bernthal, Himesh Patel, Elliot Page, Benny Safdie, and Travis Scott are all in the film but largely absent from this trailer, which means there’s still plenty being held back.

Is the Backlash Missing the Point?

The “dad” controversy sits inside a larger conversation about Nolan’s creative choices: the American accents across the board (including from London-born Holland and Pattinson, who both speak in nonspecific American dialects), the anachronistic-looking armor on some soldiers, and the general decision to treat a 3,000-year-old myth as a living, contemporary story rather than a museum piece.

SlashFilm pointed out that the accents extend beyond individual word choices — at another point in the trailer, Odysseus rallies his troops with a very American “Let’s go!” — and argued that the dialect strips the story of some of its grandeur. Others have noted that the armor on Agamemnon (Benny Safdie) and the giants that Odysseus encounters looks more medieval than Bronze Age.

But the counterargument is hard to dismiss: The Odyssey is a fantasy. It features gods, a one-eyed giant, a sea monster, and a nymph who offers immortality. Demanding period accuracy from a story that was never meant to be historically accurate in the first place is a strange hill to die on. And Nolan himself has been clear that this is his interpretation of the myth, not a reconstruction of it. On The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, he described Homer as “the George Lucas of his time” and the epic as “the Marvel of its day” — direct, mythological storytelling designed to make audiences feel that gods could walk among them.

He’s also confirmed the film will be told in Nolan’s signature non-linear style, which actually mirrors Homer’s original structure — the poem begins in medias res, deep into the journey, and works backward and forward through time. That’s very much Nolan’s territory.

The film was shot across multiple global locations, with four months at sea — a decision that visibly shaped the footage. “It’s vast and terrifying and wonderful and benevolent, as the conditions shift,” Nolan said of filming on open water. “We really wanted to capture how hard those journeys would have been for people. And the leap of faith that was being made in an unmapped, uncharted world.”

It’s also the first narrative feature film ever shot entirely on IMAX cameras — a genuine milestone — with Nolan’s longtime cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema (Interstellar, Oppenheimer) behind the lens and Ludwig Göransson, who won an Oscar for Oppenheimer‘s score, handling the music. The early reaction to the trailer’s soundtrack has been enthusiastic.

Whether “dad” belongs in ancient Ithaca is, ultimately, a question that will be answered on July 17. But if Nolan’s track record means anything — and it really does — there’s probably a reason for it. Or at the very least, it’ll be the most debated three-letter word in cinema this year.

• Zendaya and Robert Pattinson’s A24 film The Drama is now available to rent or buy digitally as of May 5, 2026.
• The film arrived on digital platforms just 32 days after its April 3 theatrical release — well ahead of the typical 45-day window.
• The Drama has crossed $100 million at the worldwide box office, making it only A24’s fifth film ever to hit that milestone.
• The film is expected to land on HBO Max sometime in July or September 2026, per A24’s output deal with Warner Bros. Discovery.
• You can rent for $19.99 or buy for $24.99 on Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home.

If you missed The Drama in theaters — or you just need to watch it again now that you know what’s actually going on — Zendaya and Robert Pattinson’s buzzy A24 film is officially available to watch from your couch. As of May 5, the film is live on digital platforms including Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home.

That’s a notably fast turnaround. Studios typically hold films for at least 45 days before releasing them digitally — The Drama made the jump in just 32. And it’s not like the film was struggling at the multiplex. According to Box Office Mojo, the film has earned $46.9 million domestically and $69.7 million internationally, crossing the $100 million worldwide mark. That makes it only the fifth film in A24’s history to hit that milestone in over a decade of operation.

What Is ‘The Drama’ Actually About?

Here’s where things get intentionally vague — and for good reason. The marketing has kept the film’s central secret tightly under wraps, and director Kristoffer Borgli wants to keep it that way. “We want the audience to go through the same experience as the characters in the movie, where they get to be surprised by something,” he told The Hollywood Reporter. “So we’re trying to hold that reveal sealed to protect the best experience watching the movie.”

What we can tell you: Zendaya plays Emma and Pattinson plays Charlie, a Boston couple in the final week before their wedding. At a food-and-wine tasting with their best friends Rachel (Alana Haim) and Mike (Mamoudou Athie), the group plays a game where everyone confesses the worst thing they’ve ever done. When Emma takes her turn, what she reveals isn’t just uncomfortable — it throws the entire relationship into question.

Borgli, best known for the 2023 Nicolas Cage film Dream Scenario, described it to THR as “a very chaotic love story” while deliberately avoiding any specific genre label. That’s fair. It’s been marketed as a romantic drama, but the reality is considerably darker and stranger. Think less Four Weddings and a Funeral, more pitch-black dramedy that will have you questioning what you just watched. The film has a 77% critics score and 78% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, and New York Post critic Johnny Oleksinski called it “gripping, quite stressfully so” and “sometimes stomach-churning in the topical subjects it touches.”

Mashable’s Kristy Puchko put it well: “Those tired of Hollywood happy endings or whimsical romances might appreciate A24’s latest vision of the rocky road to commitment.” She praised the film’s ambiguity, its hard-hitting ending, and the performances — even while acknowledging it’s not an easy watch. Trigger warnings are worth checking before you dive in.

It’s also worth noting that this is the first of three films Zendaya and Pattinson will appear in together this year, which is a pretty remarkable run for two of the most in-demand actors working right now. The Drama has already outperformed Zendaya’s 2024 hit Challengers at the box office, so the pairing is clearly working.

How to Watch ‘The Drama’ at Home Right Now

You’ve got two options: buy it or rent it. The film is available for $24.99 to purchase or $19.99 to rent across all major digital platforms. If you go the rental route, you’ll have 30 days to start watching, and once you hit play, a 48-hour window kicks in to finish it.

You don’t need an active Amazon Prime subscription to buy or rent through Prime Video — just a free Amazon account will do. The same film is also available on Apple TV and Fandango at Home at identical pricing.

When Will ‘The Drama’ Hit HBO Max?

No official date yet, but the destination is clear. A24 renewed its multi-year output deal with Warner Bros. Discovery in January, locking in HBO Max as the exclusive Pay-1 streaming home for A24 theatrical releases in the U.S. That means The Drama will land there before it goes anywhere else.

Based on how other recent A24 releases have moved, the window is typically three to five months post-theatrical. Marty Supreme, A24’s highest-grossing film of all time, arrived on HBO Max on April 24 — nearly five months after its Christmas Day release. The Smashing Machine made the jump in just over three months. Given that The Drama opened April 3, the smart money is on a July or September 2026 streaming premiere.

HBO Max subscriptions start at $10.99 per month, though an annual plan drops that to $9.17 per month. The Disney+, Hulu, and HBO Max bundle — at $19.99 per month with ads — remains one of the better deals in streaming if you’re not already subscribed.

For now, though, the movie is right there waiting on demand. Go in as blind as possible. That’s the whole point.
