Brown. It's described as an explosive 17 00:01:13,314 --> 00:01:17,154 Speaker 1: account of an investigative reporter exposing the secret plea deal 18 00:01:17,394 --> 00:01:22,034 Speaker 1: between Epstein and federal prosecutors, following Julie's experience as a 19 00:01:22,114 --> 00:01:25,674 Speaker 1: journalist for the Miami Herald and her year's long investigation, 20 00:01:25,914 --> 00:01:29,954 Speaker 1: which identified eighty victims, persuaded key survivors to go on 21 00:01:29,994 --> 00:01:33,154 Speaker 1: the record, and ultimately led to the arrests of Epstein 22 00:01:33,234 --> 00:01:37,954 Speaker 1: and Gelaine Maxwell. And while we're talking casting news, a 23 00:01:37,994 --> 00:01:40,514 Speaker 1: few more names have been added to The White Lotus 24 00:01:40,594 --> 00:01:43,554 Speaker 1: cast for season four, which will be set in Santrape 25 00:01:43,714 --> 00:01:46,954 Speaker 1: this time around. They include Heather Graham, who you might 26 00:01:47,074 --> 00:01:49,354 Speaker 1: know from a film that just got released called They 27 00:01:49,394 --> 00:01:53,034 Speaker 1: Will Kill You, which was actually recently recommended by host 28 00:01:53,074 --> 00:01:56,354 Speaker 1: of the Spill Emily Vernon on Weekend Watch. There's also 29 00:01:56,514 --> 00:02:00,914 Speaker 1: Rosy Perez from The Flight Attendant, Ben Schnetzer from The Madison, 30 00:02:01,234 --> 00:02:05,274 Speaker 1: as well as Tobias Sandleman, Frieda Gustavsen and Lauris Smet 31 00:02:05,274 --> 00:02:09,114 Speaker 1: who you probably know from The Bridesmaid. HBO says casting 32 00:02:09,154 --> 00:02:11,513 Speaker 1: is still ongoing, though, guys, so it's not too late. 33 00:02:11,554 --> 00:02:13,514 Speaker 1: They might still invite any of us in for an 34 00:02:13,514 --> 00:02:17,554 Speaker 1: audition at any point. A girl can dream to some 35 00:02:17,674 --> 00:02:21,234 Speaker 1: less fun news. Production has been paused on Amazon's tomb 36 00:02:21,354 --> 00:02:25,114 Speaker 1: Rater prime video series because our girl, Sophie Turner, who 37 00:02:25,154 --> 00:02:28,994 Speaker 1: plays Lara Croft, has suffered an injury. Now it's still 38 00:02:29,114 --> 00:02:31,754 Speaker 1: not clear what the injury is or whether it happened 39 00:02:31,834 --> 00:02:35,234 Speaker 1: on or offset, but the shutdown is expected to last 40 00:02:35,274 --> 00:02:38,274 Speaker 1: about two weeks in order to give Sophie time to recover. 41 00:02:38,714 --> 00:02:42,514 Speaker 1: So here's just hoping that she's okay. Now, stick around 42 00:02:42,514 --> 00:02:45,874 Speaker 1: because up next we are talking about a spicy new romance, 43 00:02:46,234 --> 00:02:49,793 Speaker 1: a movie that my entire girl's group chat is spiraling over, 44 00:02:49,994 --> 00:02:52,834 Speaker 1: and an unexpected twist on this season of Married at 45 00:02:52,834 --> 00:03:00,994 Speaker 1: First Side Australia. Okay, back at it with my favorite 46 00:03:00,994 --> 00:03:03,714 Speaker 1: girl who has my favorite fringe, and that is, of course, 47 00:03:03,874 --> 00:03:07,514 Speaker 1: none other than Dakota Johnson. She is continuing to fuel 48 00:03:07,594 --> 00:03:11,034 Speaker 1: romance rumors with the singer songwriter who is reportedly her 49 00:03:11,154 --> 00:03:14,314 Speaker 1: new bow, and that is role Model. Now, you'd probably 50 00:03:14,394 --> 00:03:17,354 Speaker 1: best know him for singing Sally when the wine runs out, 51 00:03:17,634 --> 00:03:19,874 Speaker 1: a song in which he always has a famous person 52 00:03:19,994 --> 00:03:22,714 Speaker 1: come out on stage. So he's had everyone from Kate 53 00:03:22,794 --> 00:03:26,634 Speaker 1: Hudson to Natalie Portman to Charlie XCX. I'm sure you've 54 00:03:26,674 --> 00:03:30,274 Speaker 1: seen it all over your feed at some point. Now, personally, 55 00:03:30,474 --> 00:03:33,354 Speaker 1: I will never quite recover, I don't think from Dakota 56 00:03:33,394 --> 00:03:36,434 Speaker 1: Johnson split with Cold Plays Chris Martin, which was around 57 00:03:36,474 --> 00:03:39,154 Speaker 1: seven months ago now, but she's been stepping out with 58 00:03:39,314 --> 00:03:41,714 Speaker 1: Young role Model quite a bit because was their third 59 00:03:41,794 --> 00:03:44,394 Speaker 1: outing in just a few weeks and they were sharing 60 00:03:44,514 --> 00:03:46,914 Speaker 1: a cute little date night out at a Paul McCartney 61 00:03:46,954 --> 00:03:50,434 Speaker 1: concert in LA So definitely going to be keeping tabs 62 00:03:50,514 --> 00:03:53,594 Speaker 1: on that one. Now. I don't know about you guys, 63 00:03:53,634 --> 00:03:56,754 Speaker 1: but absolutely everyone in my circles seems to be talking 64 00:03:56,834 --> 00:03:59,354 Speaker 1: about one movie at the moment, and that is Project 65 00:03:59,474 --> 00:04:02,034 Speaker 1: Hail Mary. Even my friends who never go to the 66 00:04:02,074 --> 00:04:04,514 Speaker 1: movies have been at the cinema watching this one. And 67 00:04:04,554 --> 00:04:06,674 Speaker 1: I have to admit I haven't actually seen it yet 68 00:04:06,674 --> 00:04:09,274 Speaker 1: because it's one of those scenarios where I convinced myself 69 00:04:09,314 --> 00:04:11,394 Speaker 1: i'd read the book and they never got around to it, 70 00:04:11,434 --> 00:04:13,474 Speaker 1: and I should probably just bin that idea and go 71 00:04:13,514 --> 00:04:16,553 Speaker 1: see the movie, because you know, the stats don't lie. 72 00:04:16,753 --> 00:04:20,714 Speaker 1: The Ryan Gosling sci fi space thriller has been smashing records. 73 00:04:20,753 --> 00:04:24,553 Speaker 1: It is now officially Amazon MGM's highest grossing film of 74 00:04:24,553 --> 00:04:28,033 Speaker 1: all time, racking up around four hundred and forty million 75 00:04:28,113 --> 00:04:32,113 Speaker 1: Australian dollars. It's actually overtaken Creed three, which came out 76 00:04:32,154 --> 00:04:35,153 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three. Now. The movie is based on 77 00:04:35,193 --> 00:04:37,193 Speaker 1: the novel of the same name, which came out in 78 00:04:37,234 --> 00:04:40,394 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, and it follows the story of Ryland 79 00:04:40,474 --> 00:04:44,273 Speaker 1: Grace played by Gosling, and he's a biologist turned middle 80 00:04:44,274 --> 00:04:46,674 Speaker 1: school science teacher who wakes up from a coma on 81 00:04:46,714 --> 00:04:50,154 Speaker 1: a spacecraft millions of miles away with absolutely no idea 82 00:04:50,193 --> 00:04:52,834 Speaker 1: how he got there. Now some other stuff happens, and 83 00:04:52,914 --> 00:04:57,234 Speaker 1: essentially he is humanity's one last hope for survival. No pressure, 84 00:04:57,313 --> 00:05:00,074 Speaker 1: Ryan Gosling. So if you're looking for something to see 85 00:05:00,073 --> 00:05:02,593 Speaker 1: over the Easter long weekend, go check it out. The 86 00:05:02,633 --> 00:05:04,954 Speaker 1: girls have actually talked about it on Weekend Watch and 87 00:05:04,993 --> 00:05:08,033 Speaker 1: they absolutely raved about it, so I'm sure won't disappoint 88 00:05:08,274 --> 00:05:10,313 Speaker 1: And I'll link that episode in the show notes if 89 00:05:10,354 --> 00:05:13,873 Speaker 1: you want to hear what they had to say. And finally, 90 00:05:13,953 --> 00:05:16,193 Speaker 1: it's hard to believe, but we are inching very close 91 00:05:16,234 --> 00:05:18,474 Speaker 1: to the end of Married at First Sight Australia, and 92 00:05:18,513 --> 00:05:20,874 Speaker 1: I have to tell you it's probably a good thing 93 00:05:20,953 --> 00:05:23,553 Speaker 1: for my social life because watching the show keeps you 94 00:05:23,674 --> 00:05:27,074 Speaker 1: booked and dizzy after work. But last night a curly 95 00:05:27,154 --> 00:05:30,154 Speaker 1: little spanner was thrown into the works. So just when 96 00:05:30,193 --> 00:05:33,433 Speaker 1: some of the couples were finally making headway finally getting 97 00:05:33,474 --> 00:05:36,633 Speaker 1: a little bit settled and happy. Bam Channel nine decided 98 00:05:36,993 --> 00:05:41,953 Speaker 1: not today, so they brought back the controversial alternate Matches task, 99 00:05:42,073 --> 00:05:44,634 Speaker 1: which is essentially when they bring back other people who 100 00:05:44,674 --> 00:05:47,713 Speaker 1: auditioned for the show and were considered good matches for 101 00:05:47,794 --> 00:05:50,553 Speaker 1: these contestants, but they didn't quite make the cut, so 102 00:05:50,633 --> 00:05:52,433 Speaker 1: now they get to meet them, which is, you know, 103 00:05:52,474 --> 00:05:55,993 Speaker 1: to force them into temptation just days before the final vows. 104 00:05:56,474 --> 00:05:58,354 Speaker 1: I have to say I was quite happy about this 105 00:05:58,393 --> 00:06:01,433 Speaker 1: twist because sometimes towards the end of the season things 106 00:06:01,433 --> 00:06:04,073 Speaker 1: can get a little dry, and this really spiced things 107 00:06:04,154 --> 00:06:07,674 Speaker 1: up and also simultaneously made me believe that love commitment 108 00:06:07,753 --> 00:06:10,794 Speaker 1: is a lie. Anyway, Tina, provis and Laura will be 109 00:06:10,834 --> 00:06:14,034 Speaker 1: back with our weekly rundown of Maths on Thursday this week, 110 00:06:14,154 --> 00:06:15,914 Speaker 1: so make sure you keep an eye out for that 111 00:06:15,993 --> 00:06:18,154 Speaker 1: episode so you don't miss a beat of the drama. 112 00:06:19,034 --> 00:06:21,473 Speaker 1: That is all for this Morning Spillers, make sure you 113 00:06:21,474 --> 00:06:24,794 Speaker 1: are following this Spill podcast on Instagram and TikTok to 114 00:06:24,873 --> 00:06:27,953 Speaker 1: stay up to date with all the latest entertainment news. 115 00:06:28,274 --> 00:06:30,993 Speaker 1: We'll have your regular Spill episode dropping in the feed 116 00:06:30,993 --> 00:06:34,234 Speaker 1: at three pm, and of course Morning Tea back tomorrow, 117 00:06:34,393 --> 00:06:37,433 Speaker 1: bright and early.
