Ben Affleck and Matt Damon have collaborated on more than a dozen films over the past 30 years, but there's one movie Affleck admits he's glad Damon did solo.

When the duo sat down with * *in support of their latest joint project, crime-thriller *The Rip*, we asked them a hypothetical question: Which movie from the other's filmography would they have liked to have starred in themselves.

"The only problem with that thought exercise is taking that movie away from him; it means that he didn't get to do it," Damon muses. "And the whole inspiration starts with what he did in the movie."

Affleck has an easier time picking one of his pal's movies that he's happier he didn't take part in.

"I'll tell you what I *wouldn't* have liked to have done, because I think it would've meant we wouldn't have been able to work together anymore, is play Greg Kinnear's part in Stuck With You," Affleck offers with a laugh. "I think that would've been pushing it, trying to lean too much into the narrative."

**"People would've been sick of us forever," Damon agrees.

"Yeah, they'd be like, 'That's it. No more!'" Affleck jokes, before adding, "I love that movie, though."

In the 2003 comedy written and directed by the Farrelly brothers, Damon played one-half of a pair of conjoined twins alongside Kinnear. Also starring Eva Mendes and Cher (as herself), the film featured a slew of celebrity cameos, including Jay Leno, Meryl Streep, Luke Wilson, Frankie Muniz, and Tom Brady (who appeared uncredited). Still, the film received mixed reviews and failed to make much of a splash at the box office.

Ben Affleck and Matt Damon say this aspect of their lifelong friendship might surprise people

Ben Affleck and Matt Damon remember their 'biggest fight': 'I had to go to the hospital'

In *The Rip*, Affleck and Damon play Miami cops whose loyalties are put to the test when they find millions in drug money hidden in a rundown home.

"It was a page turner," Damon says about what attracted him to the script. "There are these competing agendas, and people aren't saying exactly what's going on, and you're trying to figure out who you can trust, who you can't, who's the good guy, who's the bad guy."

To prepare for the role, they both spent time with real police officers. "All the stuff that I find surprising and that I tend to be proud of comes from research," Affleck says of the experience. "I think I'm better skilled at recognizing interesting things from the world that I can put into films than just conjuring up from my imagination something to do."

"All of us are there just madly stealing all their life's details and quirks and wardrobe habits," Damon adds. "It's gotta be a weird feeling when a bunch of actors descend on you and ask like, 'What kind of glasses are those?' 'Where did you get that shirt?'"**** Also starring recent Golden Globe winner Teyana Taylor, Kyle Chandler, and Steven Yeun, *The Rip* is streaming now on Netflix.**

Martin and Chris Kratt with Zoboomafoo on 'Zoboomafoo' in 1996 -

PBS's Zoboomafoo found a huge following of kids and their parents, beginning with its 1999 premiere

The series starred Chris and Martin Kratt and the Coquerel's sifaka lemur Jovian, who played Zoboomafoo

The Kratt brothers continue to make children's wildlife programs today

"Me and you and Zoboomafoo!" For a generation of former kids, those are lyrics to the theme song for PBS' Zoboomafoo, a beloved series about brothers Chris and Martin Kratt and a Coquerel's sifaka lemur named Zoboomafoo.

Zoboomafoo aired on PBS from 1999 to 2001 for two seasons and 65 episodes. However, many PBS stations continued to air reruns for years, continuing to bring new fans to the series, which mixed songs, animation, humor and real information about animals. Zoboomafoo was a real lemur named Jovian, as well as a puppet performed by Canadian puppeteer Gord Robertson that spoke to Martin, now 60, and Chris, now 56.

Martin and Chris told PEOPLE in 2001 that they grew up in Warren Township, N.J., as major animal lovers. Martin majored in zoology at Duke University, while Chris majored in biology at Carleton College. After Martin graduated, they went on a six-month trip to Costa Rica, where Martin was working as a research assistant, and started filming.

"When we were kids, there had never been enough books, magazines, TV shows about animals," Martin said, "so we decided, 'Why don't we make one?' "

They edited their amateur video and started showing it at school assemblies. When PBS saw it, they greenlit the brothers' first show, Kratts' Creatures, which aired in the summer of 1996 and continued to prove popular in reruns.

That led to Zoboomafoo, which was meant for preschool kids and filmed on a set called the "Animal Junction." It proved popular with both kids and their parents — and the brothers told Entertainment Weekly in 2000, that college students had even created a drinking game for the show. It included drinking every time the Kratts fell in the mud (a very common occurrence).

Chris told PEOPLE in 2001, "Our show is really turning a lot of kids on to creature adventuring, so they are going on adventures out in their yards." The brothers also had an interactive website, coordinating books and performed a live theatre show for kids.

In 2021, Chris told Variety that one of the toughest parts of making Zoboomafoo was the puppet; switching back and forth between the real and puppet lemur was complicated. "Fortunately, lemurs kind of look like puppets in the first place, so the idea of cutting between the puppet version and the real live version worked in the end," Chris said with a laugh. "And the set of Animal Junction was very colorful and kind of confusing, so it was very forgiving if we were cutting from one place in Animal Junction to another."

What happened to Jovian, the real Zoboomafoo?

The real lemur, Jovian, died in 2014 from kidney failure. He was 20.5 years old, according to the Duke Lemur Center, where he was born in 1994. "He was great to work with," Martin told Duke. "He'd jump in through the window and we'd feed him mangoes or garbanzo beans. Sometimes he'd grab our noses with those soft sifaka hands." Jovian's parents, Nigel and Flavi,a also occassionally appeard on the show.

Jovian the lemur in 2013

David Haring, the center's registrar and photographer, said, "Watching our young interns get excited over being in the presence of the real Zoboomafoo this summer made me realize just how lucky those of us at the Lemur Center were who had the opportunity to get to know the real Jovian in his prime. He was a playful, gentle, intelligent animal and perhaps one of the best sifaka sires ever." He sired 12 sifakas during his life.

Where are Zoboomafoo hosts Chris and Martin Kratt now?

From 2003 to 2007, Martin and Chris made the show Be the Creature for National Geographic. On the show, they visited different animals around the world in their environments. "We wanted to get back to being out, living with the animals for big chunks of time, because we'd spent a lot the time in Animal Junction for many years," Chris told Variety. This filmed 75 hours of raw footage for every 40-minute episode.

In 2008, the brothers moved to Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Their show Wild Kratts began airing in 2011. Each episode starts and ends with Chris and Martin and live animals, but the bulk of the show is animated. The series has aired consistently since it premiered, making it the Kratt brothers' longest-running show.

In 2018, the brothers launched a YouTube Channel, The Kratt Brothers.

Both brothers tied the knot in 2000: Chris married Laura Wilkinson, while Martin married Tania Armstrong. Martin and Laura welcomed sons Ronan (a professional soccer player) and Gavin, a musician. Chris and Tania welcomed sons Aidan and Nolan. All four sons appeared on Wild Kratts as animated versions of themselves when they were younger.

Martin and Chris founded the Kratt Brothers Creature Hero Foundation to help protect wildlife and teach kids about their efforts. "We got so many letters from kids saying, 'Hey, I know I'm just a kid, but I really want to help animals; what can I do?' " Martin told The New York Times in 2000. "Kids felt powerless. They felt like they couldn't do anything. What we're trying to do is give them a chance, give them a project that they can rally around and be a part of." They created the wildlife refuge Grizzly Gulch as part of their efforts.

Now, '90s kids who loved Kratts' Creatures and Zoboomafoo are sharing Wild Kratts with their kids, as Martin and Chris keep exploring the world of animals they love so much.

"I think it feels really good just to be a part of that continuum, and families learning about the animals," Martin told Romper in 2024. "I love it. Because we always wanted our shows to be something that anybody could watch, not just for kids."

Martha Stewart is spilling her skincare secrets.

The lifestyle mogul is revealing the truth behind the plastic surgery rumors surrounding her youthful appearance while also sharing her favorite beauty routines and healthy habits credits for making her look and feel her best at age 84.

"Everybody insists that I've had plastic surgery and I have not ever had plastic surgery," she tells PEOPLE exclusively while speaking about her skincare line, Elm Biosciences. "I'm the most honest person on earth — but if they won't take my word for it, I don't know."

"How can they not take my word for it?" she wonders, doubling down, "That's the truth!"

Stewart, however, did share a time she had a plastic surgeon do reparative work on her face about a decade ago after she sustained an injury from one of her French bulldogs — but she doesn't consider that plastic surgery.

"I had to be at Today at 7 a.m. and there was a big blizzard. I leaned down in my dark kitchen to kiss the dogs goodbye," she recalls, explaining, "I put my head down to one of my French bulldogs and I frightened her and she bolted up."

"She didn't bite me. She bashed my lip into my tooth and split it from my lip almost all the way to my nose and blood started gushing out all over the dog," she continues, noting, "This is 11 p.m. in a blizzard. This is the only time I've ever missed an appearance."

Stewart said she called the hospital immediately, telling the person on the phone that she had a "very bad accident." She then requested a plastic surgeon "right away" to help her before hopping into a car with her security guard who drove her through the snow storm.

"I get to the hospital and I think they did 16 stitches in my lip," she says. "I can't call that plastic surgery, that is a repair. It's a terrible, terrible, terrible split lip... you cannot see. I healed so well. That is the extent of a plastic surgeon working on my face."

Stewart adds, "That is the only time I've ever had a plastic surgeon touch my face."

The beauty entrepreneur, meanwhile, says her diligent skincare routine, which includes her recently-released A3O™ Elemental Night Cream ($165), is why she has such glowing skin now. The Elm Biosciences product is a third from the brand, which launched in September 2025.

She even referred to an Instagram selfie posted on Jan. 12 to prove that her skin has benefitted from the product — as well as her healthy lifestyle, which includes diet and working out.

"I took that picture right at the reservoir that adjoins my property and the light was so beautiful, that's just daylight and it looks so good," she says. "But no retouching. You can't see any scar and no lines. I mean, hardly any imperfections in my skin."

"That's this stuff," she says, referring to the serum. "This stuff is really working. You have to remember my age too — and I look pretty good for my age... But no plastic surgery."

In February 2024, Stewart opened up about cosmetic procedures on her iHeartPodcasts show, The Martha Stewart Podcast, and spoke about using botox, fillers and skin tightening.

Throughout the conversation, Dr. Belkin broke down the types of treatments he does on Stewart, including muscle-relaxing injections in her neck and jawline and the kind of fillers he has administered into her cheeks.

"We've done a little bit of skin tightening on you," Belkin shared. "We've done a little ultrasound tightening I think, a long time ago. We did a little softwave, which is an ultrasound based tightening device. And we've done a little bit of Ulthera, which is a great ultrasound based skin tightening that works."

Stewart also admitted that having botox on the upper part of her face hasn't always gone in her favor. "My eyebrows kind of go up in a V and that looks so unnatural," she said.

As for what the future holds for Elm Biosciences, Stewart tells PEOPLE, "I'm looking forward to working on several other products that will be launching [in 2026]. This is a big step in the right direction for us."

The actor reflects on earning his nod in the Best Supporting Actor category

"What's resonating is certainly the recognition, the acknowledgment," he tells PEOPLE

Fifty years after making his screen debut, Delroy Lindo has earned his first-ever Oscar nomination at 73 years old.

The longtime actor — perhaps most famous for his collaborations with director Spike Lee — is now up for Best Supporting Actor for his standout turn as Delta Slim in Sinners, the vampire thriller written and directed by Ryan Coogler that set a new record with 16 Oscar nods.

"I didn't know what would happen this morning," Lindo admits to PEOPLE following the Academy's announcement on Thursday, Jan. 22. "What's resonating is certainly the recognition, the acknowledgment."

Looking back on his career, he says "there are a number of pieces of work that I'm really proud of," from portraying West Indian Archie in Malcolm X to Rodney in Clockers and Arthur Rose in The Cider House Rules. "I'm proud of all of it… I'm proud that I'm still in the game," he continues, explaining "these particular parts that just popped out" while reflecting on becoming a first-time nominee with Sinners.

Delroy Lindo as Delta Slim in 'Sinners'

It also comes amid a renewed appreciation for the actor that was kickstarted roughly 10 years ago with The Good Fight, a spinoff of The Good Wife from creators Robert and Michelle King, both of whom reached out Thursday morning to congratulate him. In addition to playing law partner Adrian Boseman opposite Christine Baranski, he also reunited with Lee, 68, for Da 5 Bloods, portrayed Bass Reeves in The Harder They Fall and teamed up with Kerry Washington on the Onyx series Unprisoned, which ran for two seasons on Hulu.

"The time that I spent on Good Fight brought into my sphere a slightly different kind of audience," Lindo says, noting that five years after leaving the show, "people are still referencing my work in that TV show… and then from there, it took this [upward] trajectory."

Mentioning the projects that he starred in leading up to Sinners, he says, "I think that represents an uptick. Yeah, that's an uptake."

To cap it all off, his Sinners performance as a pianist recruited by twin WWI veterans (both played by Michael B. Jordan, who is also nominated) who are opening a juke joint for the Black community in Clarksdale, Miss. that becomes targeted by vampires, garnered acclaim from several critics groups in the run-up to the Oscars. Looking back on his role, Lindo is happy how Delta's poignant monologue in the film landed with viewers. "It's been very special to me that it has resonated for audiences in that way that it has," he says. "That's become a special piece of experience for me."

The performance and Oscar nomination also comes after many felt that he was snubbed for his work in Da 5 Bloods. While the actor was candid about his disappointment at the time, he tells PEOPLE now that "it's apples and oranges," explaining that this nomination is "not a question of making up for it — in my mind anyhow."

Lindo says with Sinners, "this is a new experience, this is a new time, this is a different piece of work. And I'm thankful that it has been acknowledged."

Now, in the lead up to the Oscars being handed out live on Sunday, March 15 at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, Calif., the actor is looking forward to celebrating with the cast and crew. "I'm excited at the prospect of reconnecting with everybody on this Sinners' journey because it's a special journey," he says.

Conan O'Brien is returning to host the Oscars live on Sunday, March 15, at 7 p.m. ET on ABC and streaming on Hulu. (Starting in 2029, the award show will air on YouTube.)

Jimmy Kimmel has a message for the FCC, and fans, after the agency demanded shows like his provide equal air time for candidates from multiple political parties

Kimmel said that the Trump administration's FCC and its chairman Brendan Carr are "reinterpreting long agreed-upon rules to stifle us"

"It's another example of this administration trying to squash anyone who doesn't support them by following 'the rules,' " Kimmel said

Jimmy Kimmel told viewers that the FCC is "coming for us again" after Brendan Carr's latest guidelines for late-night television and daytime talk shows — and he has "no idea what the outcome of this is gonna be."

During his monologue on Thursday, Jan. 22, the Jimmy Kimmel Live! host, 58, gave a detailed explanation of the Federal Communications Commission's latest public notice, as the agency said that shows like Kimmel's must provide equal airtime for candidates from different parties when interviewing political figures.

On Wednesday, Jan. 21, FCC chairman Carr — a vocal opponent of Jimmy Kimmel Live! who previously advocated for the show's brief suspension in September — shared a release to X in an attempt to remind both daytime and late-night TV programs of what he called an "obligation to provide all candidates with equal opportunities." He also claimed some shows may have been "ignoring or misreading the law in recent years" and alleged his agency "enforcing the statute passed by congress is not weaponization."

Nonetheless, Kimmel, Stephen Colbert and others are calling out Carr, 47, and citing a two-decade-old decision from the FCC in 2006, when the agency decided the similarly formatted The Tonight Show was exempt from the "equal opportunity" language laid out. In the years since, political candidates have indeed appeared on late-night television and on daytime TV shows like The View without the shows in question having to give political opponents equal airtime.

Now, during his latest monologue on Jan. 22, Kimmel claimed that the FCC and Carr — who he called "Brendan Cartel" — are "reinterpreting long agreed-upon rules to stifle us."

"Sometimes there are 20 people from 20 different parties running for the same spot and if you can't interview all of them, you can't interview any of them" Kimmel said.

He then cited Jay Leno's 2006 interview with then-gubernatorial candidate in California, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and a ruling that followed where the FCC decided it was "not subject to those equal-time" rules.

"That's how every talk show has operated since then, until this week," Kimmel said, telling his audience that Carr claimed his show "no longer qualified" for the exemption.

"It's a sneaky little way of keeping viewpoints that aren't his off air," Kimmel alleged. "It's his latest attack on free speech and it's a joke because this isn't the '50s anymore. Back then there were only three major networks."

He added, "Whatever happens, I want to point it out. It's another example of this administration trying to squash anyone who doesn't support them by following 'the rules...' And it's especially upsetting because we've been working so hard with the FCC, hand-in-hand, for so many years, bleeping and blurring the big TV moments of the week, whether they need it or not."

The Jimmy Kimmel Live! host also touched on the FCC news during his Wednesday, Jan. 21 monologue, when he said President Donald Trump's "minions" at the agency were planning to "make it difficult for shows like ours and The View to interview politicians they don't align with."

Colbert, host of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, also touched on the FCC's new guidelines during his Thursday show, calling it an "attempt to silence me, Jimmy and Seth [Meyers]."

"And I've got to say one thing to the FCC," he said. "Hey, I'm flattered you think that appearing on my show has the power to affect politics in any way. I've been doing this job for 21 years and let me tell you something, buddy: If our government had turned out the way I had chosen, you would not have the power to make this announcement."

Jimmy Kimmel Live! airs weeknights at 11:35 p.m. ET on ABC. The Late Show with Stephen Colbert airs weekdays on CBS at 11:35 p.m. ET.

Victoria Beckham is showing support for her son, Cruz.

On Friday, Jan. 23, the fashion mogul, 51, penned a tribute to the musician, 20, on her Instagram Stories — just five days after her eldest son, Brooklyn Beckham, dropped major bombshell allegations against her and his dad, David Beckham.

"So proud of you Cruz!!" Victoria wrote over a repost of Cruz's Instagram announcement that he is going on tour with his band, Cruz Beckham and the Breakers.

"I'm so excited to announce the first mini tour. It'll be my dream to play you the music I've been working on. see you there? :) let's av a good time shall we," Cruz captioned his post shared on Friday. "TICKETS GO ON SALE FRI, 30th OF JAN 10AM."

Victoria also shared a similar sentiment in the comment section of Cruz's announcement. "We r all so proud of u Cruz ❤️," she wrote.

Additionally, David, 50m showed his support for his son and the tour news by reposting the announcement on his Instagram Stories and adding, "🩷🩷🩷🩷."

The tributes come five days after the couple's eldest son broke his silence after months of speculation about a rift within the family.

Brooklyn, 26, shared a shocking series of posts detailing what he claims is an ongoing issue with his parents, who he alleges are trying "endlessly to ruin" his relationship with his wife, Nicola Peltz Beckham, in the name of publicity.

Other accusations included claims that his parents tried to "bribe" him into "signing away the rights" to his name before his and Nicola's wedding and that Victoria "hijacked" the couple's first wedding dance and acted "inappropriately" during the incident.

"I do not want to reconcile with my family. I'm not being controlled, I'm standing up for myself for the first time in my life," he wrote in part.

Following his statement, a source close to the situation told PEOPLE that Brooklyn and Nicola, 31, "never wanted any of this."

Cruz, meanwhile, hasn't shied away from posting on social media amid the family drama. In fact, he's seemingly adding to it with cryptic posts of his own.

On Thursday, Cruz shared a snapshot of him holding a can of Guaraná Antarctica, a popular Brazilian soft drink made from the Amazonian guaraná berry. While the beverage itself didn't seemingly carry much significance to the narrative, his song choice that backed the post did.

"I'm Not Such an Innocent Girl," the 2001 song released by Victoria, was the track Cruz paired with the photo.

While there was no context added to the post, nor an explicit reason as to why he chose to use that song, fans of the singer are convinced it's part of the social media-driven campaign to skyrocket the track to No. 1 on the charts.

The song choice may also be in reference to the long-rumored feud between Victoria and Nicola.

Robin Roberts, 65, who attended the couple's nuptials on Saturday, Jan. 17, revealed on GMA that the 33-year-old news correspondent and his bride added in a heartfelt note to their guests as a "thank you" for celebrating with them.

"Guys, I gotta tell you, under our place setting [was] a handwritten note from Will and Amanda. [It was made out] to each guest that was there," Roberts recalled to GMA co-hosts George Stephanopoulos, 64, and Michael Strahan, 54, who had been absent at the event.

"It was absolutely amazing," she added to Reeve, though she kept mum on what the details of her own personalized letter held.

Reeve — who is the son of the late Superman actor Christopher Reeve and singer Dana Reeve — responded that he and Dubin, 29, wrote the letters because "we love you and we were grateful to have you there."

PEOPLE confirmed that Reeve and Dubin tied the knot in Miami on Saturday, Jan. 17. Roberts shared a photo on Instagram before the couple's nuptials with wife Amber Laign and GMA stars Sam Champion, Lara Spencer and others in Miami.

"Pre-party last night before heading to celebrate a beautiful couple say I do!🥂," Roberts, who wore a black suit with silk white lapels, captioned the photos.

She also shared a few snaps on Instagram Stories from the wedding, calling it "a magical night celebrating a magical couple," adding her own "congratulations" to the wedding couple.

Spencer, 56, also shared a few pictures from the pre-party and the wedding to her Instagram, including snaps of her posing alongside Roberts and Laign and dancing in a ballroom and of the GMA cast and crew together. She also shared a look at what appeared to be the place settings or the reception, which featured a pair of plates with a pair of hand-drawn faces on them.

"A joyous day celebrating the beautiful love story of @willreeve_ and @amandadubin. Still smiling…," she captioned the post.

Reeve previously announced his engagement to Dubin in a joint post on Instagram on Nov. 10, 2024. The couple shared several photos of the romantic New York City proposal, which took place on Nov. 8. The pair captioned the post simply, "Us 🤍."

The reporter shared on Live with Kelly and Mark that he had disguised the proposal as "a charity event in Manhattan." However, when his future bride walked in, the space was filled with "roses and [a] cellist and a photographer," and it finally clicked what was happening.
