One such revelation in the Harry Potter reunion special comes from Watson, who shared a rather emotional sit-down with Grint. During their segment, the actors admitted that they both considered leaving the Harry Potter series at one point or another due to their struggles with fame, especially around the time of the fifth film, Order of the Phoenix. That was surprising enough, but as the conversation went on, Grint went on to reveal his true feelings about the cast, saying that they’re a family and that they will always be a part of each other’s lives....

Disney’s Encanto released around Thanksgiving last year and almost immediately found a level of popularity that put it in line with other Disney animated features like Frozen.

NASA is working with Musk’s private spaceflight company on a program, called Artemis, to take humans back to the moon, where no one has stood since 1972. SpaceX is tasked with developing the first commercial landers, known as human landing systems (HLS), to be used in lunar missions, as part of a $2.89 billion deal. The first will involve NASA’s Space Launch System rocket launching four astronauts aboard the Orion spacecraft into lunar orbit....

The multi-billionaire questioned the government’s financial bureaucracy by arguing that it is “Who is best at capital allocation — government or entrepreneurs — is indeed what it comes down to.” Musk happily spent over $90 million to launch a $100,000 sports car into space—money that could have been invested in infrastructure, health care or combating climate change....

Madrid, however, do have a match in hand following their successful Club World Cup campaign. And Emery – who will attend the blockbuster fixture as he prepares for PSG’s Champions League last-16 tie against Madrid – believes home-ground advantage makes Zinedine Zidane’s men favourites. “They are many points behind, but on Saturday if one team is favourite to win then it should be Real Madrid, as they’re at home,” Emery told Marca....
