When I interviewed Kristen Taekman for my book (did you see the trailer for Ultimate Girls Trip: Glue Factory?

Sun’s out, gifts out. That’s the motto at Vulture dot-com, even if it doesn’t rhyme. Between dads, grads, poolwarmings (like a housewarming but wetter), Leo birthdays, and summertime self-care, there are any number of reasons for a thoughtful prezzie. But seriously, do you really need an occasion to buy a little treat, or is it your divine right? Once again we have rounded up the best pop-culture gifts for summer.

The answer is magic. Spoilers ahead for those who haven’t finished Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. Now that the script of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child has been loosed upon the world, we can talk all we want about the mechanics of the new Potter play. There’s a lot to discuss: Scorpius and Albus’s friendship, the fact that nearly every Potter adult works for the government (or runs a prank store), and the greatness of the Trolley Witch.

So Ken. Did John Cena really commit his bits to the bit? While hosting the 2024 Oscars on March 20, Jimmy Kimmel reminded the audience that tonight is the 50th anniversary of the time a nude man ran across the Academy Awards stage. That was Cena’s cue to come out and present the award for Best Costume Design while appearing to be fully nude. This took some coaxing from Kimmel, with Cena initially arguing that “the male body is not a joke.

Feral for Simon. (Also, Pete Davidson is there.) Art is about answering life’s big questions: What is our purpose? What do we owe each other? What would it be like to be a successful comedian who was just a regular guy and lived in Staten Island and, uh, loved his mom and smoked mad kush? Pete Davidson asks that last one (and maybe touches on the first two — we don’t know) in his upcoming comedy series, Bupkis.

Daniel Craig in Layer Cake. In a different reality, we’d now be in the midst of Hollywood’s blockbuster season, enjoying the nearly weekly unveiling of a major event movie, including much-anticipated sequels (F9) and the improbable return of Tom Cruise’s most beloved 1980s hot shot (Top Gun: Maverick). Instead, well, you’re cooped up in your place trying to figure out what to watch while not going stir-crazy. This is where we come in.

In Jim Jarmusch movies, the world tends to be alive with possibility — including the possibility of running into Method Man in a Paterson, New Jersey, laundromat. That’s an experience Adam Driver’s character Paterson has in Jarmusch’s new film, Paterson, the beautifully idiosyncratic story of a bus-driving poet in the town that bears his name. Every night, Paterson takes his dog for a walk, and on this particular evening he’s drawn toward the sound of an anonymous rapper — the Wu-Tang Clan’s Method Man, an experienced actor in his own right — working on some rhymes as he does his laundry.
