Daily Recap

Wednesday, 13 May 2026

Entertainment news today moved from true-crime fallout to Cannes spectacle. In Utah, author Kouri Richins — who published a children’s book about grief after her husband’s death — was sentenced to life without parole after her conviction for murdering him with a fentanyl-laced cocktail, closing one of the year’s most disturbing culture-adjacent cases. Hollywood also marked a loss, with Donald Gibb, the beloved character actor best known as Ogre in the “Revenge of the Nerds” films and for “Bloodsport,” dying at 71. At Cannes, the mood was more celebratory and provocative: Jane Schoenbrun’s “Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma” drew strong early buzz and a lengthy standing ovation, while Vin Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez and fellow “Fast and the Furious” stars reunited for the franchise’s 25th anniversary, a reminder that even on the Riviera, nostalgia still has plenty of horsepower.
