  • Alicia Silverstone Makes Her Sexy Thriller Comeback with ‘Pretty Thing’

    Alicia Silverstone Makes Her Sexy Thriller Comeback with ‘Pretty Thing’

    Every love story has risks — but some are more dangerous than others. In Pretty Thing, Alicia Silverstone steps into a role that twists desire into something deadly. Coming soon to Lionsgate Play, the film is a slow-burn erotic thriller that shows how quickly passion can spiral into obsession.

    Pretty Thing 2

    Silverstone plays Sophie, a high-level pharmaceutical executive who has built her life on discipline and control. Her marriage is muted, her work consumes her time, and she rarely lets people in. When she begins an affair with Elliot (Karl Glusman), a younger man who seems eager to please, it feels like a decision she can manage. 

    But what starts as an indulgence soon unravels into something darker, and her lover’s fascination morphs into a dangerous obsession. Soon, Sophie finds herself fighting to reclaim her life, her freedom, and her very sense of control.

    Written by Jack Donnelly and directed by Justin Kelly, Pretty Thing doesn’t lean on explosive twists or genre clichés. Instead, it builds an atmosphere that keeps viewers on edge, slowly tightening its grip until every glance and gesture feels like a threat.

    For Silverstone, the film also marks a full-circle moment. Her very first movie, The Crush (1993), also told a story of obsession, but with the roles reversed. Back then, she played the teenage stalker; in Pretty Thing, she is the one being stalked. The contrast highlights both how far she’s come and the new weight she brings to this kind of story.

    On returning to the stalker thriller genre, Alicia Silverstone told UPI, “It’s fun to revisit it. They’re both in some kind of addictive game. She wants this to stop and he wants it to keep going. They’re both equally determined… It’s an erotic thriller and it starts like a romance. You think, ‘Oh, this is like this really beautiful, romantic story’ and then it takes a turn. I love that about it.”

    Experience the tension, the passion, and the danger when Pretty Thing starts streaming exclusively on Lionsgate Play on September 5 via PLDT Home, Smart and Cignal.

  • 5 Reasons “Confidence Queen” Will Steal Your Heart and Keep You Hooked

    5 Reasons “Confidence Queen” Will Steal Your Heart and Keep You Hooked

    The spotlight was on Seoul as the cast and crew of Confidence Queen gathered for a press conference, giving fans a first look at the much-anticipated Korean comedy-caper. Director Nam Ki-hoon was joined by lead stars Park Min-young, Park Hee-soon, and Joo Jong-hyuk, who shared exciting behind-the-scenes stories about what’s set to be your next weekend obsession.

    Front

    At its core, Confidence Queen follows Yun Yi-rang, a brilliant con artist who joins forces with James and Gu-ho to form a trio of swindlers. Their mission? Outsmart the bad guys, expose corruption, and claim back what villains don’t deserve. With a sharp mix of humor, high-stakes heists, and fast-paced storytelling, the series is all set to premiere September 6 on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories, with new episodes dropping every weekend. Here’s why you’ll want this show on your watchlist:

    1. Park Min-young Like You’ve Never Seen Her

    Confidence Queen Park Min-young

    K-drama queen Park Min-young is back, and fans couldn’t be more excited. After the global hit Marry My Husband, she returns with a bold new transformation as Yun Yi-rang, a fearless and witty leader who masterminds elaborate cons. Park Min-young revealed, “I was attracted to the completely different character and excited to show a very different image.” Expect her to dazzle as she slips into multiple disguises and takes the audience on a rollercoaster ride of clever schemes.

    2. A Powerhouse Cast with Star-Studded Cameos

    Confidence Queen

    Joining Park Min-young are powerhouse actor Park Hee-soon (My Name, Trolley, The Bequeathed) and rising star Joo Jong-hyuk (Extraordinary Attorney Woo). On top of that, fans can look forward to a lineup of surprise cameos from Song Ji-hyo, Rowoon, Oh Na-ra, and more. Adding to the fun, Park Min-young’s Marry My Husband co-star Lee Yi-kyung pops up in a hilarious cameo. Park shared, “When I read the script about a character singing the song ‘Emergency’ by Izi while defecating, I thought he’d be perfect for it because of his comedy skills.”

    3. A Fresh Take on a Beloved Original

    3

    Adapted from the Japanese hit Confidence Man, Confidence Queen keeps the heart of the original while adding a distinct Korean flair. Director Nam Ki-hoon explained, “We focused more on the reasons for the cons and on Yi-rang’s backstory, which makes our version unique.” With each scheme unraveling like a puzzle, the series promises plenty of twists that will keep you guessing.

    4. Outrageous Costumes and Hilarious Disguises

    4

    What’s a con without a great disguise? From bold outfits to jaw-dropping transformations, the cast takes on dozens of costumes. Joo Jong-hyuk revealed, “I had to transform into a woman once and it took about two and a half hours.” Park Hee-soon added, “Sometimes I’d be in character and no one, not even the director, recognized me.” Expect laugh-out-loud moments as the trio shapeshifts their way through every caper.

    5. More Than Just a Heist Story

    5

    While Confidence Queen is packed with comedy and flashy cons, it also dives deeper. Director Nam Ki-hoon shared, “There are villains every episode, and through them I tried to show some societal issues. The story is like a puzzle with different pieces.” This balance of entertainment and depth ensures each episode hits harder than a simple caper comedy.
