๐ŸŽง Spidey, Nolan, Spielberg โ€” Hot Movie Summer Is Here

The box office is back โ€” but which movie will reign supreme? Plus: Spencer Pratt keeps gaining in the L.A. mayor race

The summer box office is already popping, with The Devil Wears Prada 2 and Michael raking in millions before Memorial Day โ€” and with new movies coming from Christopher Nolan, Steven Spielberg, Marvel, Pixar and A24’s youngest director ever, it feels like the industry might have its best summer since 2019. (Even if The Mandalorian and Grogu fails to launch.) Elaine Low, Sean McNulty and Natalie Jarvey make their picks for the season’s biggest hits in Ankler Agenda‘s first-ever summer box office draft (fantasy football-style), as they predict the next top performers of the summer.

Plus: With President Trump voicing support for The Hills alum Spencer Pratt in his run for mayor of Los Angeles โ€” “I’d like to see him do well” โ€” and Pratt gaining ground among the Hollywood elite, the town gets closer to seeing the reality show president push the reality show mayoral candidate to the top (or is it bottom?) of the food chain.
