Harry Styles releases Harry’s House

Harry Styles released his third studio album, Harry’s House, and shared a slideshow of behind-the-scenes photos from the studio.

The album features the singles “As It Was” and “Late Night Talking.” It is Styles’ first album since Fine Line, released in December 2019. He came to fame with the boy band One Direction, which has been on hiatus since 2016.

“While this is such a personal album, and so much about my own journey finding a place of home, I also feel like it’s very much dedicated to my friends,” the star said.

“I always felt like I would land in a certain place, or a certain house and feel like ‘Oh, this is the home I’ve been searching for,’” he added. “And I think, much like happiness, that isn’t necessarily a final resting place and it is a journey and it’s kind of peaks and troughs of happiness, sadness — all the things that make you feel alive.”

In addition to music, Styles will star in the new film Don’t Worry Darling, releasing on September 23.

Lucasfilm says Star Wars ‘will go on forever!’

Death and taxes have always been regarded as the only two certainties in this life, but it looks like we can go ahead and add Star Wars to that list as well.

The three Star Wars trilogies that make up the Skywalker Saga spanned several decades. Now, thanks to Disney+, the franchise is exploring several different eras of the iconic galaxy far, far away.

At Star Wars Celebration, Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy was asked about the plans Star Wars has for the future. She said that, as long as there are good stories being told, Star Wars can continue forever. The current slate of Star Wars storytelling is very TV-focused.

“We’ve got a couple of directors that we’ll announce shortly and you can expect to see Star Wars in movie theatres very soon,” Kennedy told.

The first two episodes of the newest Star Wars series, Obi-Wan Kenobi, are now streaming on Disney+.
