The Best Things to Do On, By and Near the Water in Brisbane
The eeriest film of 2024 heads back to the 90s to follow a fledgling FBI agent connecting the dots between a spate of deaths — and it boasts a helluva pedigree.
An extra 40-plus artists have joined the lineup, including Jorja Smith — and new talks will dive into international music tours and the streaming landscape.
Fresh from popping up in 'The Bear', the acclaimed chef behind one of the world's best restaurants hosts a docuseries about key ingredients that've shaped humanity.
Following comments during the band's Sydney show, which kicked off their Down Under tour, Jack Black has also advised that "all future creative plans are on hold".
