Guy “Dr Disrespect” Beahm has broken his silence on allegations that he was banned from Twitch in 2020 for allegedly “sexting” a minor. The famous streamer admitted to the incident but said there were no “real intentions behind these messages” and claimed nothing illegal happened. “No pictures were shared, no crimes…
After his January 1st, 2023 accident, in which a snowplow ran over him – resulting in blunt chest trauma and more than three dozen broken bones – things were looking dire for Jeremy Renner. And yet, he barely even seemed to slow down, documenting his progress for fans on social media and even launching another show, Rennervations. While we’ll still have to wait to see exactly what comes to The Avengers, Renner continues working on Mayor of Kingstown. But as for other challenging roles, he’s opting to sit those out right now.
Appearing on the Smartless podcast, Jeremy Renner said of such roles, “I just don’t have the energy for it. I don’t have the fuel. I have so much fuel to put into this reality, this body, all this stuff. I can’t just go play make-believe right now. Because that takes a lot of time to get right here every day just so I can, you know, have a positive thought, so I can progress, so I can always keep growing.” It’s not necessarily that Renner is actively taking a break (he has been cast in the third Knives Out movie) but instead focusing on the things that truly matter. “I’m to do, like, f*cking fiction? I’m still trying to live in reality, I’m trying to live. So it was a hard line for me to cross.”
On returning to Mayor of Kingstown – the second season of which was on the brink of premiere when Renner was still in the hospital – the actor stated, “It was a big stretch. It was very, very challenging for me mentally to get over that hump. To like, and I still struggle with it sometimes to, like, I don’t take it super seriously. I’m in a character that I can do very well and I know the show very well, so it was easy for me to kind of slide back into it. But if it was a very challenging role, I couldn’t have taken it.”
Renner also teased that he is at work on a book about his accident and recovery, with a goal to release it no later than early next year. Separately, Renner also posed shirtless for Men’s Health, showing off his scars for the first time:
Despite the accident, Renner looks remarkably fit. He recently told us that one of his big goals was to be in good enough shape to reprise Hawkeye for Marvel. It looks like he’s well on his way!

Three years have gone by since we heard that Olivia Scott Welch of Shudder’s The Sacrifice Game and Netflix’s Fear Street trilogy would be starring in writer/director George Baron’s feature debut The Blue Rose, which is described as a surreal, genre-bending noir film… and now we finally know when we’re going to have a chance to see The Blue Rose. Dark Sky Films has announced that they will be giving the film a digital/VOD and limited theatrical release on July 12th! Along with that announcement comes the unveiling of a trailer, which you can check out in the embed above.
Set in the 1950s, The Blue Rose follows the one-night journey of two rookie detectives as they set out to solve a seemingly clear-cut homicide, only to find themselves in an alternate reality of their worst nightmares.
Welch takes on the role of Detective Lilly, while Baron plays Detective Dalton himself. Also in the cast are Danielle Bisutti (Curse of Chucky), Nikko Austen Smith (Queen Sugar), Glüme Harlow (Hollywood Scandals), Jordyn Denning (Pam & Tommy), Evee Bui (Love, Victor), Sophie Cooper (Two Goats in a Trench Coat), Logan Miller (Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse), and Ray Wise (Twin Peaks).
Sarena Khan and Andra Gordon of Athena Pictures produced The Blue Rose, with Tracie Dalton and Parts & Labor’s Jay Van Hoy serving as executive producers. When Welch signed on, Khan and Gordon provided the following statement: “We are so thrilled to support George in bringing his wonderfully inventive vision to life — one of those rare gems that defies expectations at every turn. Olivia Scott Welch perfectly embodies the character of Detective Lilly and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome her to the team.“
Baron, who has primarily been credited as George Dalton up to this point, had acting roles in the TV shows 2 Broke Girls, poliKiDz, and Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp. He was also in the film Adult Interference, which he co-produced.
