Nearly two decades after audiences first witnessed the love story of Jack Twist and Ennis Del Mar — and cried their way through entire boxes of tissues as a result — their on-screen wives had an impromptu reunion!
Brokeback Mountain stars Anne Hathaway and Michelle Williams — who played the wives of Jack (Jake Gyllenhaal) and Ennis (Heath Ledger), respectively — sat side by side in the front row as Ralph Lauren unveiled its Fall 2025 Ready-to-Wear collection on Thursday, April 17.
A far cry from the Western looks of the 2005 drama, the actresses wore head-to-toe Ralph Lauren for the star-studded fashion show, which was held at the Jack Shainman Gallery in New York City.

Hathaway, 42, wore sequined, distressed jeans in a warm shade of khaki, which she teamed with a matching trench and a simple, scoop-neck white undershirt. She wore her hair in a sleek, high ponytail and accessorized with gold everything — save for a big pair of black sunglasses, which she ditched once heading inside the gallery.

Williams, 44, also went neutral — and opted for big outerwear — sporting a long, gray trenchcoat that hit at her ankles, which she wore closed and cinched at the waist. Underneath, a dress in a nearly identical shade poked through slightly, and the actress paired her all-gray attire with black pumps and a matching purse — plus her signature blonde bob, of course.
The stylish stars sat together in the front row of the gallery, where they were also joined by Naomi Watts, with whom Hathaway was seen chatting.

While Hathaway and Williams’ roles in Brokeback Mountain mark their only film collaboration, Hathaway later reunited with on-screen husband Gyllenhaal, 44, for 2010’s Love & Other Drugs.
Similarly, Williams and Ledger did not rekindle their on-screen chemistry, but they did famously take it off-screen. The actors fell in love on the set of the Ang Lee-directed movie, and welcomed their daughter Matilda Rose in October 2005, just before the movie hit theaters.
They later split up in September 2007, and Ledger died shortly after from an accidental drug overdose on Jan. 22, 2008.

The cast of Brokeback Mountain (who also included Kate Mara, Linda Cardellini, Randy Quaid and Anna Faris) have spoken fondly about the film over the years, though Williams recently admitted that after landing her first Oscar nod for the 2005 drama, she felt “a little bit frozen for a moment, creatively.” (The film was nominated for eight Oscars, including Williams’ nod for Best Supporting Actress, and won for three: Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Original Score.)
“It was really unnerving after that. Like, what do you do? What do you do next?” Williams recalled on Sunday Sitdown with Willie Geist in 2023. “I never really had attention on me before in that kind of a way, and I think that that attention can be sort of destabilizing.”

‘Supergirl’ actress Milly Alcock mocks critics, says a lot of them are Christian dads

New ‘Supergirl’ star Milly Alcock pushed back against online critics ahead of the film’s release, saying many of the people criticizing her past comments are anonymous “burner accounts” and profiles identifying themselves as “Dad of four, Christian” accounts.
In a new interview with Variety, Alcock discussed the backlash surrounding her rise to the lead role in DC Studios’ upcoming “Supergirl” movie and said she has learned to tune out online outrage as scrutiny around blockbuster franchises intensifies.
“But I mean, whose opinion do you really care about?” Alcock said. “If you’re p—ing the right kind of people off, you’re doing OK.”
The actress suggested much of the hostility directed toward her comes from faceless social media users reacting emotionally online.
“And it’s from a lot of people whose profiles have no photo, who are burner accounts,” Alcock said. “Or someone’s name and then ‘Dad of four, Christian,’ which is hilarious to me.”
Alcock said she partly understands why people become emotionally invested in celebrities and fictional franchises, arguing that distrust in institutions has pushed some people toward online communities for direction and validation.
Alcock noted that governments don’t have “anyone’s best interests at heart” and people turn “to online forums to find that guidance.”
“It just creates an unhealthy relationship with a person” who will eventually disappoint, she said.
The comments build on concerns Alcock raised earlier this year about the pressure female stars face in major entertainment franchises. In an earlier interview promoting “Supergirl,” the actress said women in fan-heavy franchises often face criticism simply for being cast in prominent roles.
“It definitely made me aware that simply existing as a woman in that space is something that people comment on,” Alcock previously said while discussing her experience starring in HBO’s “House of the Dragon” and the upcoming DC film.
“We have become very comfortable having this weird ownership of women’s bodies,” she said.
Alcock first gained widespread attention playing young Rhaenyra Targaryen in “House of the Dragon,” the “Game of Thrones” prequel that became one of HBO’s biggest recent hits. She later appeared on “Sirens” before landing the lead role in “Supergirl.”
The actress also spoke openly about the stress of her new role, admitting she feared audience reaction while stepping into one of DC’s most recognizable superhero franchises.
“Of course I’m scared,” Alcock said in March. “Of course, I want people to like me and the movie. But, ultimately, it’s out of my control.”
The film is part of James Gunn and Peter Safran’s rebooted DC Universe, following the release of the new Superman film.
“Supergirl” is scheduled to hit theaters in June.

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are $2M deep in contractor debt

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are staring down more than $2.1 million in unpaid contractor debt tied to their sprawling upstate New York estate. It is a financial headache that arrives at arguably the worst possible moment for a couple that has watched its business empire take a beating over the past year.
Five contractors and subcontractors filed mechanics liens against the couple’s 110-acre property in Lewisboro last month, with Westchester County records showing the combined claims total $2.1 million according to the Daily Mail.
The biggest hit came from FlowCon Inc., doing business as Flower Construction, which is seeking $1.35 million for work that allegedly included framing, HVAC systems, plumbing, electrical, drywall, masonry, waterproofing, painting and millwork, documents obtained by The Post show. Additional claims cover custom copper roofing, structural steel fabrication, rough carpentry, geothermal excavation and septic installation. No lien releases or discharges appeared in county records.
The project, a passion play eight years in the making, was supposed to be their forever home. The couple quietly acquired the South Salem compound through an LLC in 2018, then added a $1.6 million four-bedroom parcel and four surrounding plots two years later.
The buildout, which they envisioned as a geothermal-powered and environmentally conscious retreat, includes a 14,500-square-foot main residence, a 3,306-square-foot pool house for a 1,000-square-foot swimming pool, a 1,702-square-foot gym and accompanying septic and stormwater systems. Construction is believed to have stalled sometime around late 2025 or early 2026.
At a 2022 planning board hearing, Lively was effusive about her feelings for the property, describing it as “heaven” and “the most beautiful place in the world.”
“We love this land so much. We’re so grateful to have this land and to have such space and such privacy,” she told town officials.
She said the couple was “desperate to get shovels in the ground and be living on this land.” Their attorney, Michael Sirignano, confirmed the couple had “no plans” to sell any of the surrounding lots, saying the intent was for it to “remain a family compound” for Lively, Reynolds and their four children.
That compound is still unfinished. And the liens raise uncomfortable questions about what the couple’s bruising legal war with director Justin Baldoni may have cost them off-screen.
Lively sued Baldoni, her co-star and director on “It Ends With Us,” for creating a hostile work environment. Baldoni countersued for $400 million. The case churned through months of explosive accusations, leaked texts and legal filings before both parties reached a settlement earlier this month, just two weeks before trial was set to begin. No money changed hands.
Lively is still pushing to recover legal fees tied to Baldoni’s failed countersuit, though a judge recently denied her request to submit additional filings.
Tens of millions in legal fees and reputational damage accrued on both sides. For Lively specifically, the cost has extended well beyond the courtroom.
Before the Baldoni dispute erupted publicly, Lively was positioned as one of Hollywood’s most commercially valuable celebrities. Her husband had already demonstrated a Midas touch in the spirits and telecom space, having built Aviation Gin into a brand acquired by Diageo for $610 million in 2020 and Mint Mobile into one snapped up by T-Mobile for $1.35 billion in 2023.
Lively’s own venture, Blake Brown, a haircare line launched at Target back in August 2024, was widely expected to be the retailer’s next major beauty breakout, with projections pointing toward $100 million in brand value.
It did not go that way. The brand launched into the storm of the Baldoni fallout, and the numbers told a grim story fast.
According to Puck, which reviewed Target sales data, Blake Brown pulled in more than $5 million in its first month.
By the time Lively filed her lawsuit and Baldoni countersued in early 2025, weekly sales had slumped to a range that left the line unranked in Target’s top 50 haircare brands. A person familiar with the brand’s performance told Puck it “went from a $100 million brand to a $15 million brand,” calling it “a non-conversation” at Target. Sales had plunged more than 87% from their peak.
Aviation Gin and Mint Mobile also faced softened demand and pulled campaigns during the chaos. Lively’s legal team has claimed reputational damages of up to $300 million.
Representatives for the contractors and for Lively did not respond to requests for comment.

‘Top Gun’ actor Miles Teller defends his reputation after self-imposed, decade-long media ban from ‘mishandled’ profile

Miles Teller attempted to reclaim a negative narrative after being labeled “kind of a d–k” more than one decade ago.
The “Top Gun” actor admitted he’s shied away from editorial profiles since disagreeing with an Esquire feature published in 2015.
Teller, 39, recognized the challenges with longevity in an ever-changing industry while chatting with IndieWire, but also noted how his trajectory was almost thwarted by what he believed was a misaligned profile.
“That was so mishandled. The reason why I have not done profiles is because I said, ‘Wow, if I’m not doing this interview on camera, this person can misquote things or put things out of order or say things that didn’t happen,’” he said.
“It felt like such a violation of what actually transpired.”
Teller recalled telling his team that he wasn’t interested in that form of press, “Because I’m reading this and this doesn’t sound like me to me. This is not life, so why would I ever want to be a part of something where they can just put that in?”
“So it’s unfortunate that being a good person, that doesn’t sell,” Teller confessed. “People want to click on the negativity.
“If you go to bed and put your head on your pillow and how you treat people truly, that’s what matters. That [2015] interview was like 12 years ago.”
Despite what the public had access to through printed words, Teller defended his peers for being able to recognize work ethic over personality clashes.
“The actors, the directors, the crew, the producers … you can’t hide who you are when you’re on set,” Teller said.
Teller’s truth caught the ire of social media users who questioned the sincerity behind his self-inflicted media ban.
“Ironically, sounds like kind of a d—,” one user wrote, while another, “I mean, a bunch of people who’ve met him and talked to him irl have said he and his wife aren’t very pleasant to talk to. I don’t think it’s because of the press profiles.”
One user noted that it’s “tough how negativity sells these days.”
“I can see why he’d be cautious after that experience,” one user wrote on X. “Misquotes can be really damaging to someone’s reputation.”
Following the 2015 expose, Teller slammed the publication online, and wrote that they “couldn’t be more wrong” about the title bestowed upon him.
“Miles Teller is on a quest for greatness (with a bit of d—ishness too,)” Esquire tweeted at the time.
He responded, “@esquire couldn’t be more wrong. I don’t think there’s anything cool or entertaining about being a d-— or an a—ole. Very misrepresenting.”
