- *The Hunting Wives *star Dermot Mulroney has teased a third season of the steamy Netflix series.

- During a podcast interview, Mulroney said filming for season 3 will begin this fall.

- Mulroney stars alongside Malin Akerman and Brittany Snow in the series that digs into the scandals and mysteries among a group of East Texas socialites.**

While fans of *The Hunting Wives** *wait for its highly anticipated second season, which is set to premiere in September, Dermot Mulroney has teased that that won't be where the series ends.

While on the *The Tangle With Kyle Ridley** *podcast on Wednesday, Mulroney revealed that the breakout Netflix show about East Texas socialites with plenty of secrets is already gearing up for a third season.

"Season three is in prep," Mulroney shared on the podcast. "I think they got writers in the room, and they're cooking up a third season already."

Mulroney added that filming for season 3 of the steamy and suspenseful thriller series, which is based on May Cobb's bestselling novel of the same name, should begin this fall.

Netflix told ** that the series has not been renewed for a third season "at this time."

"So that's great news for all the fans of *The Hunting Wives*. Just stay tuned," Mulroney added.

*The Hunting Wives* cast is led by Malin Akerman, who plays Margo Banks, the wife of Republican politician Jed Banks, a wealthy Texas oil tycoon and gubernatorial candidate played by Mulroney. Margo forms an intense bond with Sophie (Brittany Snow), a Boston transplant interested in climbing the region's social ladder and being accepted into the Hunting Wives, an elite clique. As the two grow close, things get complicated after the murder of a local teenager, Abby (Madison Wolfe).

***Get your daily dose of entertainment news, celebrity updates, and what to watch with our ******EW Dispatch newsletter******.***

As far as what audiences can expect for season 2, Mulroney said that when it comes to his character, things "just get worse and worse."

"I argue that the first season was based on May Cobb's wonderful novel, that was, you know, murder-mystery and backstabbing, [a] raunchy thing," Mulroney said. "The second season is not chained to a novel, and they go off... off of the chain. So stay tuned. Well worth the binge watch."

*The Hunting Wives* premiered on July 21, 2025, and quickly dominated Netflix's streaming charts while engrossing audiences with its mix of sexy scandal and mystery.

Last September, Snow and Akerman shared that the series would be back for a second season in a FaceTime-style video posted to social media.

A teary-eyed and emotionally distraught Snow told Akerman she'd "give anything to see" her, and Akerman responded with a smile, teasing, "I have a feeling we’re going to see each other real soon. Actually, I *know *we’re going to see each other really soon."

With the first season ending on a shocking cliffhanger, and no premiere date for season 2 officially announced by Netflix yet, fans will just have to hold on a little longer before learning what's next for Margo, Sophie, and the rest of the Hunting Wives crew.

This burned out house in Torrance, California, sold for $1 million on May 11, 2026. As of March, the median price of a "mid-tier" home in California was $775,000, more than twice the comparable national average of $366,000 (Rhett Winchell)

California's housing crisis has gotten so bad that even a burned-out house on a busy corner in metropolitan Los Angeles is now worth $1 million.

The boarded-up, three-bedroom, two-bath home in Torrance sold for the eye-popping amount last week, according to multiple real estate websites. That's despite it being clearly unlivable, with fire damage that includes a gaping hole in the roof.

"It's a nice part of Torrance," said NDA Real Estate chief financial officer Rhett Winchell, who handled an earlier auction of the burned-out house last year. "We had a tremendous amount of interest in the property."

In the latest sale, the 1,140-square-foot, ranch-style house went for 2 percent above list price, according to Homes.com.

The stunning transaction appears emblematic of what the California Legislative Analyst's Office calls a "serious housing shortage" that has resulted in costs "rising rapidly for decades."

As of March, the median price of a "mid-tier" home in California was $775,000, more than twice the comparable national average of $366,000, according to the latest figures compiled by the LAO.

The burned-out house in Torrance has been vacant since a blaze broke out inside around 4 a.m. on Feb. 1, 2024, according to a Tuesday report in the Los Angeles Times.

The place was reportedly "dangerously cluttered" and the fire apparently started when a heating grate in the floor ignited something, forcing an older man who was the only person inside to escape through an open window.

The man survived the incident but later died and his house was sold at a probate auction last year, when the high bid was $980,000, according to the NDA Auctions website.

The auction winner, who reportedly paid a total $1.08 million, resold the house on May 11.

The seller’s agent didn’t respond to an inquiry from The Independent and the buyer’s agent declined to identify his client or say what they planned to do with the property,

But Winchell, who handled last year's auction, said that the house "sold for the land value" and that the price wasn't unusual for the area, where comparable homes in "move-in condition" regularly fetch $1.5 million.

Outgoing Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat and potential 2028 presidential candidate, has signed a series of bills aimed at increasing California's housing stock, including several that led to a surge in construction of so-called accessory dwelling units on residential properties that already have a single or multifamily house.

Estimates of California’s housing shortage vary wildly but their midpoint suggests the Golden State needs an additional 2.2 million housing units — 14.9 percent of the current supply — to meet demand, according to research by the American Enterprise Institute.

Eric McGhee, policy director and senior fellow at the Public Policy Institute of California, said that the laws covering accessory dwelling units were "probably the best of the reforms" and that work on them now accounted for about 20 percent of residential construction in the state.

But it's unclear if they're "really helping the housing supply," McGhee said.

"We don't know what those are actually being used for," he said, adding that possibilities included home offices, man caves and short-term vacation rentals.

McGhee blamed California's housing shortage on backlash to its post-World War II housing boom, with local governments imposing restrictions on new development "in the name of environmentalism or preserving a livable community."

"It enabled equilibrium for particular communities, but not the state as a whole," he said.

McGhee said the ideal solution involved making housing construction easier, faster and cheaper, both by easing the permitting process and encouraging the use of "modular, factory-based" methods of building homes.

"This is a long-term problem we've created and it's going take a lot of time to dig our way out of it," he said.

A tech boss has sacked his company’s entire HR team after they created “problems that didn’t exist”.

Ryan Breslow, the chief executive of US payment company Bolt, said he had axed the department to combat the “sense of entitlement” across the company.

Mr Breslow, who founded the business in his Stanford dorm room in 2014, left the company in 2022 but was reinstated as the chief executive in March last year. Bolt axed 30pc of its staff last month in an effort to turn around its fortunes.

“We had an HR team, and that HR team was creating problems that didn’t exist,” Mr Breslow told Fortune’s Workforce Innovation Summit this week. “Those problems disappeared when I let them go.”

Mr Breslow has criticised HR, writing on LinkedIn last year that he wanted staff to be “more focused on efficiency and less focused on fluff”.

He initially rebranded the HR department to “people ops”, saying it had the “wrong energy, format, and approach”.

“People ops empowers managers, streamlines decision making, and keeps the company moving at lightning speed,” he said.

Bolt saw its valuation soar to $11bn (£8.8bn) in 2022 before falling to around $300m two years later – a decline of nearly 97pc. Mr Breslow criticised the culture that had developed at the company in his absence.

He said: “There’s a sense of entitlement that had festered across the company, and people who felt empowered, felt entitled – but weren’t actually working hard.

“And this is the number one thing that I had to battle. Ultimately, most of those people just had to be let go.”

He added: “We need a group of people who are very oriented around getting things done, and there is just a culture of not getting things done and complaining a lot.”

It comes amid a widening backlash against the HR industry, which employs more than 500,000 people in Britain. Critics say the ballooning industry – which has grown by 83pc since 2011 – is slowing down businesses and creating meaningless busywork. HR departments have also been criticised for becoming increasingly political.

Tanya de Grunwald, the host of the This Isn’t Working podcast, says the profession is “constantly being filled with young, Left-leaning, middle-class graduates”, who are “motivated by their own clear views on how to make the world a better place”.

Last year, Whitehall documents released under the Freedom of Information Act revealed that 200 HR events and meetings were held across seven government departments during working hours in May 2025 alone.

These included “listening circle for trans colleagues and allies”, “sapphic sound” music sessions and two-hour-long diversity, equity and inclusion sessions.

SpaceX has revealed that it lost billions of dollars in recent years ahead of its planned initial public offering (IPO), which is expected to be the biggest in history.

Elon Musk’s space company has recorded $13 billion worth of losses since 2023, according to a filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including $4.3 billion loss since the start of the year.

SpaceX‘s IPO is poised to become the first US market debut to surpass a trillion-dollar valuation, potentially paving the way for other significant IPOs in the coming months, including those from technology giants OpenAI and Anthropic.

A successful offering would immediately position SpaceX as one of the world’s most valuable publicly traded companies, marking the second entity within Elon Musk's expansive business empire to exceed a $1 trillion market capitalization.

Since its inception in 2002, SpaceX has ascended to become the globe’s largest space enterprise, primarily through the deployment of thousands of Starlink internet satellites. Its pioneering adoption of reusable rockets has fundamentally altered the economics of space travel, compelling rivals like Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin to accelerate their own advancements.

While SpaceX initially gained prominence for its rocket manufacturing and satellite launches, the majority of its $18.67 billion revenue last year stemmed from its Starlink satellite internet service. Much of its projected future growth is now tied to artificial intelligence-related ventures, though its nascent xAI unit is currently operating at a loss, according to the recent filing.

Should the sale achieve its target, the company could be valued at a record-setting $1.75 trillion. This valuation would place its founder on a trajectory to become the world's first trillionaire, validating years of challenging conventional wisdom through the development of rockets capable of landing and being reused.

The company's regulatory disclosure arrives during a pivotal week for the rocket manufacturer, which is preparing for a test flight of its next-generation Starship rocket. Musk’s ambitious plans for lunar and Mars missions, alongside the expansion of its Starlink satellite internet business, are heavily reliant on the success of this new rocket.

The test launch, initially slated for Tuesday, is now anticipated for Thursday evening.

The success of the flight test, which will see the biggest rocket ever built lift off from SpaceX’s Starbase facility in Texas before splashing down in the Indian Ocean, could have a bearing on how well the IPO goes for Musk.

SpaceX’s board has granted Musk extensive control over the company, with a significant portion of his compensation linked to audacious objectives such as establishing a permanent human colony on Mars and constructing space data centers with compute capacity equivalent to 100 terawatts, or 100,000 one-gigawatt nuclear reactors, as previously reported.

The company aims to list its shares as early as 12 June, with a roadshow launch targeted for 4 June and the share sale expected by 11 June, according to recent reports.

In July 2025, Stephen Colbert announced that The Late Show with Stephen Colbert was coming to an end

CBS said the "agonizing decision" to cancel the Emmy-winning show was "not related in any way to the show’s performance"

Ahead of his final episode taping on May 21, Colbert told PEOPLE that he tried to never take the show "for granted"

Stephen Colbert is taking his final bow on The Late Show.

During a July 2025 taping, the host, who replaced David Letterman in September 2015, announced that his late-night talk show was coming to an end.

CBS' cancellation came just days after the host criticized the network's parent company, Paramount, for its July 3 $16 million settlement with President Donald Trump, who alleged that CBS News' 60 Minutes deceptively edited an interview with former Vice President Kamala Harris. At the time, Paramount was in the midst of a merger with entertainment company Skydance — a deal that needed approval from the Trump administration.

In a statement from CBS shared with PEOPLE at the time, the network said that the cancellation is "not related in any way to the show’s performance, content or other matters happening at Paramount."

Ahead of his last episode taping on May 21, Colbert reflected on his show coming to an end in a conversation with PEOPLE and said he felt grateful for his experience over the last decade.

"I tried never to take for granted filming in the Ed Sullivan Broadway theater, having that tremendous audience, or having the ability to work with the funniest people I know every day and make jokes about the things that make me most anxious," he said.

So, why is The Late Show with Stephen Colbert ending? Here's what to know about its cancellation.

After Colbert shared the news with his audience, fans were left wondering why the show was being canceled, despite high ratings. (Just days before it was canceled, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert received an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Talk Series.)

CBS' statement said it was "purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night."

"Our admiration, affection, and respect for the talents of Stephen Colbert and his incredible team made this agonizing decision even more difficult," the statement read. "Stephen has taken CBS late night by storm with cutting-edge comedy, a must-watch monologue and interviews with leaders in entertainment, politics, news and newsmakers across all areas."

The network noted that his show had been "#1 in late night for nine straight seasons," calling his broadcast a "staple of the nation's zeitgeist."

Will anyone replace Stephen Colbert on The Late Show?

During his announcement, Colbert revealed that he was not being replaced, as The Late Show was ending in its entirety.

"It's not just the end of our show, but it's the end of The Late Show on CBS. I'm not being replaced," he said. "This is all just going away."

Colbert went on to describe it as a "fantastic job," adding, "I wish somebody else was getting it."

His time slot, however, will be taken over by Byron Allen and his comedy talk show, Comics Unleashed. During a May 20 appearance on CBS Mornings, Allen said there will be "no politics" on his show.

What has Stephen Colbert said about his departure?

During his July 2025 broadcast, the crowd began booing just after Colbert announced the cancellation news. "Yeah, I share your feelings," he responded.

After saying that CBS has been "great partners," he shared a heartfelt message to the crowd about his past decade as host.

"I am extraordinarily, deeply grateful to the 200 people who work here," he said. "We get to do this show for each other every day, all day, and I've had the pleasure and the responsibility of sharing what we do every day with you in front of this camera for the last 10 years."

During his conversation with PEOPLE months later, Colbert said that he wonders if CBS "saved my life" by cancelling the show.

"It takes a lot of bone marrow to do the show every day, and now I’ll be stepping down with enough time, enough energy to do other things that I want to do," he said.

As for his show's legacy, Colbert said he hopes fans "laughed" and "felt better at the end of the day."

"I mean, that's it. We're there. We're the last thing you see. A lot of things happen in a day, but we bat last, and so we get the last take that people hear before they go to bed, and I hope it made their day better," Colbert said.

Actor Jason Lewis participates in Entertainment Weekly's Brave Warriors panel at New York Comic Con on Oct. 7, 2018, in New York City.

Actor Jason Lewis returned to social media with a vague explanation for stepping out of the public eye over the past three years.

The "Sex and the City" alum, 54, posted a short video on Instagram on Thursday, May 21, walking on a beach while he directly addresses the camera. The post's caption read: "After three years, it was time."

"Three years ago, I went quiet. Not because I had nothing to say, but because I had something to do," he said in the video.

While he did not reveal what task kept him occupied for years, he hinted it was the "kind of creative work that doesn't leave room for much else."

He continued: "I made my peace with that. It's the kind of work that needs to find its people, though. I'm still in it. But I'm far enough along now that it felt like it was time to resurface and share what I've been doing.

"More to come," he teased.

Jason Lewis disappeared from the public eye after 'DWTS'

Lewis has yet to be seen publicly since his 2022 brief stint on "Dancing with the Stars" Season 31, where he and partner Peta Murgatroyd were the first pair out of the competition.

In an interview with People, the "Charmed" actor explained that he agreed to join the dancing competition series after years of turning down invites because of his fianceé, actress Liz Godwin.

"This year, when the offer came in, my fianceé asked me to be a little less pigheaded and at least take a look at a show," he told the outlet. "It is incredibly beautifully done. The dancers are so talented."

All posts on Lewis' Instagram, aside from his May 21 video, have been scraped from his page.

Lewis is known for roles, such as model Smith Jerrod on "Sex and the City," artist Dex Lawson on "Charmed," and Chad Barry in "Brothers & Sisters."
