News about Manny Jacinto

The Disney+ series The Acolyte, starring Amandla Stenberg and created by Leslye Headland, won't be returning for a second season. The news that the show is now a one-and-done production has since set off backlash from some of the fans of the Star Wars Universe, and they're taking to social media to let their feelings be known. Many of those disgruntled lovers of all thing Star Wars took to Manny Jacinto's Instagram page to wage their misgivings over the decision to cancel the show after just one season. The actor, who appeared as Qimir, a Sith with a soft side, broke his silence by sharing a tribute to the series by posting an image of the final shot of the show, along with a single heart emoji as he bid farewell to his time in a galaxy far, far away. Standing alongside Amandla Stenberg's Osha the two characters can be seen holding hands side-by-side as they stare out into the sunset.

It's been more than two decades since we last got to see Tess Coleman ( Jamie Lee Curtis ), her daughter Anna ( Lindsay Lohan ), and her love interest Jake (Chad Michael Murray) in Freaky Friday (2003). All three actors are back to reprise their roles in the much-anticipated sequel Freakier Friday , and now six weeks into the shoot the two leading ladies are teasing fans about Murray's role this time around, and why some people may be surprised. 'Chad is in it. And boy, oh boy, is Chad in it,' Curtis, 65, told Entertainment Weekly of his status for Freakier Friday, before dropping the big romantic bombshell. It turns out a character being played by Manny Jacinto is now married to Anna, who swapped bodies with her mom, Tess, in the first film due to a mysterious curse. 'Manny plays Lindsay's husband, but that's as much as we can say,' Curtis added, before Lohan, 38, chimed in on her new onscreen love interest: 'Manny is lovely, so funny,'

Manny Jacinto seemingly threw shade Tom Cruise's way after revealing all of his lines were cut from 2022's Top Gun: Maverick. The hunky actor, 36, was cast as LT Billy 'Fritz' Avalone in the blockbuster Top Gun sequel that also starred Glen Powell and Miles Teller. While the film helped Powell and Tiller achieve A-list status, it did little to boost Jacinto's profile as he was reduced to a background actor in post-production.

With the Euros kicking off, fans up and down the UK will be glued to their screens. But what if you don't like football? Sometimes it can seem like there's just too much of the beautiful game on our screens. But if you find penalty shootouts and the intricacies of the off side rule a turn-off there are plenty of shows to watch instead.

The first poster for Disney's highly awaited Star Wars TV series The Acolyte has been revealed, and it will premiere on the Disney Plus subscription service on June 4. The poster was first seen on the Star Wars X website, which also announced that the first trailer would debut on Tuesday at 8 a. PT. Except that the series takes place some 100 years before the events of the first Star Wars prequel film, 1999's The Phantom Menace, is revealed, very little is known about it at this time.

On Tuesday, Squid Game actor Lee Jung-jae appeared in costume for the first time on the forest set of the highly awaited Star Wars prequel, The Acolyte, which began production at the UK's Shinfield Studios on November 7. The South Korean Emmy winner, who is turning 50 in a week, reunites with a former Padawan (Amandla Stenberg) to look into a string of crimes.
