Lindsay Lohan is currently spending the fall in Toronto, where the Mean Girls star is filming a new Netflix romantic comedy.

Lohan has been spotted shooting Return to You, a new film where she stars opposite Henry Golding that is expected to land on Netflix in 2027. Production began in Toronto in late September and is scheduled to continue through November 10. She was photographed filming outside an office building in Toronto earlier this month.


The film takes place in 2008 and follows a powerful but lonely attorney played by Lohan. After mistakenly receiving a DVD recorded by a terminally ill woman for her husband, the lawyer follows clues contained on the disc in an attempt to track down its intended recipient. Golding plays the woman’s husband.

The project also brings Lohan back together with director Mark Waters, who previously directed her in Freaky Friday and Mean Girls. Waters has since directed several Netflix films, including He’s All That, Mother of the Bride and La Dolce Villa. Lohan also serves as a producer for Return to You. The actress starred in Netflix’s Falling for Christmas, Irish Wish and Our Little Secret as well as Freakier Friday, the 2025 sequel to Freaky Friday.

The actress is no stranger to Toronto, as Mean Girls was famously filmed in and around the GTA. Netflix has not announced an exact premiere date for Return to You, but the film is currently expected to arrive sometime in 2027

John Oliver Reacquires Russell Crowe’s Infamous Jock Strap: ‘We F-ucking Bought It Back’

Great news, late-night fans: John Oliver is yet again in possession of a jock strap worn by Russell Crowe for Cinderella Man. The jock strap has been acquired by the Last Week Tonight show host several times and has a long history as a sort-of joke and sort-of charitable item.

Oliver initially bought the undergarment in 2018 during an auction Crowe dubbed “The Art of the Divorce,” which involved the actor selling more than 200 items in the wake of his divorce from Danielle Spencer. Last Week Tonight purchased it for $7,000 and eventually donated it to the last remaining Blockbuster Video store in Anchorage, Alaska, in an effort to boost their business. Crowe said he donated the profits to the Australia Zoo, which said it would use the money to fund the “John Oliver Koala Chlamydia Ward.”

Did Paul Thomas Anderson Just Make One of the Best Concert Movies Ever?

Most folks were not at Woodstock, Altamont, or Wattstax. Many of us were not a gleam in our parents’ eyes when Monterey Pop took place. We didn’t attend Bob Dylan’s numerous performances at the Newport Folk Festival in the 1960s, and we were not lucky enough to catch the Talking Heads do a four-night stand at the Pantages Theater in Hollywood in 1983. For every person that was at the Fillmore on Thanksgiving 1976, watching the Band give a massive farewell show, there are hundreds of thousands who have never set foot in the storied venue.

But we know these legendary events and performances like the back of our proverbial hands, thanks to the movies. Someone was smart enough, savvy enough, or simply lucky enough to have cameras rolling and boom mics at the ready when history was being made, one flaming Fender Stratocaster or boombox-accompanying “Psycho Killer” at a time. There were online comments galore about Paul Thomas Anderson and Benny Safdie sightings at Cameron Winter‘s show at Carnegie Hall in December of last year, and how both of these namebrand auteurs were running around with Panavision rigs on their shoulders. Thus, folks had a hunch that some sort of visual chronicle of a landmark show would make its way in to the world at some point. You figured it would be special. Even knowing who was pounding the keys and who was calling the shots, however, you might not have guessed it would be something so sublime as to make you so teary and euphoric.

You Are Not Ready for ‘You Can See Everything’

In 2023, Elizabeth Holmes was going to prison. The eccentric founder of the blood-test startup Theranos had become a poster girl for everything that was wrong with Silicon Valley hero worship and the media’s elevation of self-made billionaires and tech disrupters. Accused of defrauding investors over claims that her company had invented a test that would screen for a variety of diseases with a single drop of blood (see: this now iconic photo), Holmes had been found guilty in both the courts of law and public opinion. The True-Crime Industrial Complex had a field day: endless magazine articles, op-ed screeds, multi-episode podcasts, an Alex Gibney documentary, an award-winning limited series on a streaming service. You remember the story and the brouhaha.
