"Get the medic": Grant Denyer collapses in first-look trailer for Amazing Race

The Amazing Race Australia is back and more dramatic than ever, after Gold Logie winner Grant Denyer collapsed on set, needing medical attention. The first-look teaser of the celebrity edition of the reality show has come out, and showcased some of the most tense scenes of the season. The 45-year-old Logie winner is at the centre of the scene, as footage showed him lying on the ground as paramedics struggle to give him urgent medical attention, while his wife Chezzi watches on. “Can we get the medic? He’s shaking, he’s shivering,” a voice said. The upcoming season of the show will feature stars Grant Denyer and his wife, Jackie Gillies and husband Ben, Bec Judd and sister Kate Twigley, and Australian Survivor player "King" George and sister Pam. A few of the other stars competing this season are The Voice Australia co-host Darren McMullen and his nephew Tristan, Kath and Kim comedian Peter Rowsthorn and his daughter, and Too Hot To Handle stars Harry and Teddy. The show is set to air in October on Ten, and the stars will work with their loved ones to compete for $100,000 to their chosen charity, as they race against the clock to complete challenges in countries including India, Cambodia, Malaysia and Borneo.

Camper trailer stolen with couple still asleep inside

A young couple are relieved to be alive after their camper trailer was stolen while they slept inside. After a long day of driving, Brock Momcilovic, his girlfriend Jedha Kinder and their two dogs were camping overnight in their trailer attached to a four-wheel vehicle at the Cumberland River rest stop on the Great Ocean Road. Ms Kinder was jolted awake to the sound of the car engine starting just before midnight. She jumped off the bed into the annex area between the trailer and the car, while Mr Momcilovic was thrown backwards from the momentum. Ms Kinder and the two dogs were dragged 200 metres up the road before falling out on to the road where she suffered bruising and gravel rash, as the dogs fled in the chaos. The carjacker then drove for 8km down the road, as Mr Momcilovic held on for dear life. "I sort of just laid there because I thought it was a dream," Mr Momcilovic told <a href="https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-08-21/four-wheel-drive-camper-trailer-stolen-while-couple-inside/102755074" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener">ABC Radio Melbourne</a>. But quickly reality kicked in during the incident as Mr Momcilovic realised he had his phone handy. "I rang triple-0 while I was holding on," he said. "I was actually on Google Maps while on the phone to the operator telling her where we were heading." As Mr Momcilovic continued to hold on, he didn't know if his girlfriend or their dogs were okay, and he had no way of checking. "I was worried if I fell off, I was going to be pretty well done," he said. The car eventually slowed down enough for Mr Momcilovic to jump off the vehicle, before the car was abandoned near a nearby police station after the clutch blew out, with the carjacker taking off on foot with the keys in hand. The couple's dogs were found a day apart, one was found at the campsite, the other near a cliff, and have since been reunited. The couple have urged campers not to leave their keys in the car, with Mr Momcilovic saying, "It could have been a lot worse." Image credits: Nine News

Transformers trailer sparks fury online

Transformers released a string of teasers and behind-the-scenes footage ahead of the June premiere of Transformers: Rise of the Beasts - but quickly stripped a scene that appeared reminiscent of the September 11 attacks. The seventh Transformers movie in the franchise is set to hit Aussie cinemas on June 22, and Transformers shared an extended trailer that showed the Twin Towers of the World Trade Centre surrounded by black smoke, according to the New York Post. The scene’s evocation of 9/11 shocked viewers and many didn’t believe the image could be affiliated with a Transformers movie. “This image certainly made me stop scrolling,” wrote Twitter user Daniel Kibblesmith, alongside the jarring screenshot from the trailer. Kibblesmith’s tweet attracted more than 2.5 million views in less than 24 hours after being posted. Transformers’ caption read, “It’s about to be epic. Go behind the scenes with our cast and crew, and meet the new characters of Transformers.” As of May 23, the post no longer appears to be on the franchise’s Twitter page. The nearly two-minute teaser features Anthony Ramos, who stars in Transformers: Rise Of The Beasts as Noah Diaz, an ex-military electronics specialist living in Brooklyn, New York. “This is about to be epic. This is about to be epically crazy,” Ramos said in the behind-the-scenes clip. The footage shows a peaceful NYC skyline with the Twin Towers before abruptly cutting to a shot of the Statue of Liberty in the foreground and the World Trade Centre covered in thick smoke in the background. Steven Caple Jr, the movie’s director clarifies in the clip that the upcoming movie is “in chronological order, is the second Transformers movie – it takes place during the ’90s”. “I didn’t think that it was possible, but here I am, even less interested than ever in seeing a Transformers movie. They’ve done it again, the mad genii,” one Twitter wrote. “This could have been easily avoided if they’d picked literally any other city besides New York,” another tweeted. “That is … an unfortunate shot,” yet another said of the upsetting image, while another said it was “too soon”.

“Some lowlife took our home”: Retirees wake to devastating theft

Retirees Sue and Tony Hill have been living out of a campervan and driving it on the Big Lap around Australia. They returned home to North Adelaide recently to stop in and visit family when disaster struck. Their home was stolen right from under their noses. "I came out Monday morning around 7.30 ish and it was gone,” Sue Hill told <a href="https://www.9news.com.au/national/couple-move-life-into-campervan-and-have-everything-stolen/ac17b057-a51d-4b04-b366-9c63307b2984" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NineNews</a>. "Some lowlife took our home ... Our life has just been ripped out from under us.” The grey nomad couple, who had spent their retirement savings to buy the camper trailer for their Big Lap around the country, were absolutely distraught – but now an incredible act of charity has given them new hope, and a brand new trailer to call home. "We'd given up hope that we'd ever get back on the road again, which is what we love doing. We'd given up hope that we'd ever get our camper trailer back," Mrs Hill said. But then the owner of local business Eagle Camper Trailers – Brent – heard about the plight of the Hills and just had to act. "I heard it, I watched it and I thought 'I can't believe this'," Brent told NineNews. "The fact that someone had taken their home, I needed to try and do something to sort it out." The Hills also turned to social media to try and track down the stolen trailer or the thieves, with no luck. "I've been on the truckie pages trying to get the truckies of Australia to help," Sue and Tony's daughter Janene Harper said. "Through COVID and the rental crisis, they lived homeless for more than 12 months," she said, on the family’s Facebook fundraiser page. "They decided to invest every last dollar they had to purchase a portable home, something they could call home. They were required to sell most of their belongings to be able to move in." The Hills are now incredibly thankful to Brent at Eagle Camper Trailers for his generosity, and for helping to put them back on their feet and into a new home. Images: NineNews

Hollywood heavyweight barely recognisable in new Marvel movie

A Hollywood superstar has shocked fans with how completely unrecognisable he is in the new Thor movie. The trailer for Thor: Love and Thunder was released a couple of days ago and follows Thor (Chris Hemsworth) on his journey of self-discovery. His journey is however interrupted by Gorr the God Butcher who wants to get rid of the gods. But which A-lister plays the unrecognisable role of Gorr? None other than Christian Bale. <iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Go8nTmfrQd8" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe> Gorr…or Bale for that matter, appears completely different thanks to the full face of makeup which has gotten rid of his hair and completely changed his facial structure. His terrifying new look shows him all bloody and scarred as he prepares to take down the gods. Thor: Love and Thunder will be released in cinemas on July 7. Image: YouTube

Avatar sequel trailer released 13 years after first movie

A teaser trailer for the sequel to Avatar has been released almost 13 years after the first movie broke box office records. In just one day since the Avatar: The Way of Water trailer came out, it has reached more than four million views (correct at time of publishing). Fans are given a glimpse of what to expect in the exciting sequel which is set to drop in cinemas later in December around the world. The sequel, which is also set more than a decade after the first movie, will follow the Sully family (Jake, Neytiri, and their kids) and the trouble that keeps following them and how they fight to keep each other alive. Director and producer James Cameron had previously announced that he has plans for a total of six movies for the Avatar series and that he had already begun filming for the fourth film. "Anything that had to be done with a specific actor, we did all the scenes for 2 and 3 together – and a little bit of 4," he told Variety. "I had to shoot the kids out. They're allowed to age six years in the middle of the story on page 25 of movie 4. So I needed everything before then, and then everything after, we'll do later." Fans can expect to wait just one year after Avatar: The Way of Water to see the third installment with the fourth movie a year after that, and Avatar 5 for December 2026 and the final film in 2028.

Don’t Look Up teaser trailer released

In an unlikely pairing, Jennifer Lawrence and Leonardo DiCaprio are starring in their nerdiest roles ever, in the new sci-fi comedy Don’t Look Up. Set to be released on Netflix in December, the movie has everyone talking following the release of the teaser trailer last week. The film follows astronomy grad student Kate Dibiasky (Lawrence) and her professor, Dr Randall Mindy (DiCaprio) as they try to convince the world to take notice of a comet bound for Earth. After discovering the incoming comet, Kate and Randall set out on a media tour that takes them from the White House to the radio show The Daily Rip. <img style="width: 500px; height: 333.3333333333333px;" src="https://oversixtydev.blob.core.windows.net/media/7844132/1_dont-look-up-2jpg.jpg" alt="" data-udi="umb://media/d06188e5d8d64936b1572e47e661ae57" /> Image: Buzz With only six months until the comet makes impact, trying to convince the world to just look up proves comical - in a disaster movie meets Anchorman kind of way. Lawrence and DiCaprio aren’t the only stars to join the cast either, with Meryl Streep appearing as President Orlean and Cate Blanchett as radio host Brie. <img style="width: 500px; height: 281.25px;" src="https://oversixtydev.blob.core.windows.net/media/7844131/dont-look-up1.jpg" alt="" data-udi="umb://media/e946c65c834e4d89a6552021fd288bd3" /> Image: Netflix / Youtube Written and directed by Academy Award winner Adam McKay, the film also stars Ron Perlman, Timothée Chalamet, Tyler Perry, Mark Rylance, Himesh Patel, Michael Chiklis, Melanie Lynskey, and Tomer Sisley.

Hollywood A-lister made Hugh Jackman clean up vomit in his trailer

The Hollywood star wasn’t happy when Hugh Jackman’s best mate since kindergarten – Gus Worland - vomited in his trailer and he made the Aussie actor clean it up. Worland recapped the whole story on KIIS FM’s Kyle and Jackie O Show today and then he challenged listeners to call in and guess who the Hollywood star was. The incident happened in the earlier days of Jackman’s career when Worland was visiting Jackman on a movie set. One of Jackman’s co-stars invited them both to have a drink in his “much bigger trailer”. Worland said he walked into the trailer “… and it’s got a Cuban cigar in each corner with a cigar cutter … and there’s a tub of drinks and stuff.” “We sit down and start having a conversation and I’m struggling to get the words out because I’m so excited that I’m in his company,” Worland said about Jackman’s co-star. Worland’s nerves got the better of him and he said he was “drinking a little bit too quickly” and he found himself not feeling well, he said on the radio show. “Jacko’s looking at me going: ‘Are you OK, mate?’ I said, ‘I’m fine, I’m fine.” But he wasn’t. He added: “I’m smoking this cigar, I’m drinking these drinks and I’m hammered within an hour. I just go, ‘Oh no, I can’t hold this.’ I tried to shimmy out of the horseshoe [table] set up … which is a difficult thing to do … and I don’t quite get to the door of the trailer and I throw up everywhere.” Worland said that Jackman found it fairly funny but the other celebrity didn’t have the same sense of humour about the situation and he told Jackman he’d have to clean the whole thing up. “That takes Jacko about 20 minutes,” Worland recalled. Kyle Sandilands asked Worland: “He got Hugh Jackman to mop up your chunder?” “Yeah,” Worland said. So, who was the Hollywood A-lister who wasn’t impressed? Eventually a listener called through with the right answer – it was John Travolta and it was when Travolta and Jackman were filming Swordfish. Worland was on the Kyle and Jackie O Show to promote a new initiative for his Gotcha4Life Foundation called the ‘Mind Your Mate’ campaign. “I want everyone to write down a list of all the people in their life that they love and actually go to our website <a href="https://www.gotcha4life.org/">gotcha4life.org</a> and pledge your mateship to them,” Worland said. “And I can send you some tips and tricks to make sure your relationship is stronger than ever before.” Gotcha4Life is an Australian mental fitness charity which Worland set up which takes action to engage, educate and empower people to improve their mental health and end suicide.

Fans of Hollywood icon Judy Garland are in for a treat, with Oscar winner Renee Zellweger playing the Wizard of Oz star in an upcoming movie.

The movie, which is set in London in 1968-69 will be released in September. Judy will shed light on Garland’s tumultuous life and her struggle with countless health problems during her London tour. The actress passed away at the age of 47 due to accidental drug overdose in June 1969. <blockquote style="background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);" class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-captioned="" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/p/BggE-WhD98a/" data-instgrm-version="12"> <div style="padding: 16px;"> <div style="display: flex; flex-direction: row; align-items: center;"> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 40px; margin-right: 14px; width: 40px;"></div> <div style="display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center;"> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 100px;"></div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 60px;"></div> </div> </div> <div style="padding: 19% 0;"></div> <div style="display: block; height: 50px; margin: 0 auto 12px; width: 50px;"></div> <div style="padding-top: 8px;"> <div style="color: #3897f0; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 550; line-height: 18px;">View this post on Instagram</div> </div> <a style="color: #000; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none; word-wrap: break-word;" rel="noopener" href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BggE-WhD98a/" target="_blank">#JUDY starts principal photography in London today, starring Academy Award winner, Renée Zellweger as Judy Garland! #judygarland #reneezellweger #london #thetalkofthetown #jessiebuckley #finnwittrock #michaelgambon #rupertgoold #pathe #calamityfilms #bbcfilms #ingenious</a> <p style="color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;">A post shared by <a style="color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px;" rel="noopener" href="https://www.instagram.com/judygarlandfilm/" target="_blank"> JUDY</a> (@judygarlandfilm) on Mar 19, 2018 at 3:20am PDT </div> </blockquote> Zellweger has quite an extensive resume herself, with her most notable role being Bridget Jones.

Truck driver’s miraculous escape after semi-trailer crashes into waterway

An unknown motorist has saved the life of a truck driver who became trapped in water after veering off a Victorian highway and crashing into an irrigation channel. A dashcam captured the dramatic moment yesterday afternoon on the Goulburn Valley Highway at Moorilim. The footage shows a wall of water erupting when the vehicle, which was carrying soup, made impact with the water. <iframe src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FDashCamOwnersAustralia%2Fvideos%2F1699712700088363%2F&show_text=0&width=560" width="560" height="315" style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe> According to witness reports, the passing motorist dived into the water and pulled out the trapped 62-year-old trucker to safety. “He pulled up, sprinted two lanes across highway and jumped into the channel and pulled the driver out. What a legend!”, said Sarah Cody Rawson-Harris on Facebook. Police and emergency services attended the scene of the incident. Victoria Police said in a statement, “It is believed a truck travelling along the Goulburn Valley Highway veered off the road just after 1 pm and into a water channel.” “The driver and sole occupant, a 62-year-old Tatura man, was helped by two passers-by and taken to hospital for observation.” Police have said the cause of the crash is yet to be determined.

6 movie trailers that deceived viewers

A successful movie trailer not only makes you feel the anticipation to see a new flick, but it also gives you key glimpses into the story and characters so that you immediately are sold to watch it. However, some trailers have deceived audiences by selling an image of a story that does not remain true to the movie. Here are six movie trailers that managed to deceive audiences. Warning: Spoilers for the following movies. 1. Kangaroo Jack <iframe width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/XqSa4QGW8fs?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> The trailer for Kangaroo Jack pitched the film as a family friendly comedy with the likes of a talking kangaroo and screaming characters. Many kids watched the flick at the cinemas only to sit through a mafia comedy about adult friendships and failed dreams. The coy marketing ploy led the film to the top of the box office over its opening weekend. 2. Snow Dogs <iframe width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/UBgBG2XTyug?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> After watching the trailer, this Disney film appears to look like a story following different talking dog characters. However, apart from the main dog Demon, the canines are not even central to the plot. After watching the film, audiences will realise the clip from the trailer that contains talking is dogs is from a dream sequence in the movie. 3. Drive <iframe width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/CWX34ShfcsE?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> One woman sued the distributor of this movie because she believed the trailer was so deceiving. While the trailer makes it appear like a typical blockbuster car-chasing action film, it is actually slow-paced and contains little driving. The film focuses on cinematography, layers of meaning and character development rather than the typical Fast and the Furious story-arc that trailer viewers might have been expecting. 4. Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street <iframe width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/_4R72KROZ20?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> Although Sweeney Todd has been a musical for years, the trailer concealed all of its musical themes. The confused audiences who packed into cinemas to see this movie were taken aback as it strayed from the typical action thriller genre as depicted in the trailer. 5. Passengers <iframe width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/7BWWWQzTpNU?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> Passengers, starring heavyweight Hollywood actors Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt, strayed away from the central plot in the trailer advertising. It appears as if the duo were woken up by accident on their space voyage, however, in the movie Pratt’s character wakes up Lawrence on purpose – effectively killing her. Some audiences were turned off by his moral decision. 6. Collateral Beauty <iframe width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/isQ5Ycie73U?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> This movie has a trailer that is understandably not true to the movie story because the story has too many twists to be successfully summarised in a short trailer. Will Smith plays Howard Inlet, a grieving man who struggles to move on in life. He begins to write letters to Death, Time and Love and soon these abstract identities show up to help him heal. Later, viewers discover that Howard’s friends have actually hired actors to play the personifications of Death, Time and Love so that they can film him and prove that he insane in order to take control of his business. However, there is still one more twist that audiences weren’t expecting. Have you ever been disappointed with a movie because of a misleading trailer? If so, tell us about it in the comments below.

Semi-trailer pushes car down Sydney highway in horror incident

Shocking footage shows the moment a huge B-double truck pushes an Uber car down a busy Sydney highway after an accident in which no one was miraculously injured. Inside the car, a newlywed couple were travelling to Sydney airport as they were at the conclusion of their honeymoon. Somehow the Uber ended up sideways in front of a huge truck and was pushed down the Princes Highway at Sydenham for 30 metres. The car was then pushed into a side street, near a power pole. <iframe src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fniall.little%2Fvideos%2F10154879264126442%2F&show_text=0&width=267" width="267" height="476" style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe> Witness Niall Little saw the shocking incident after he was closing his workshop when he heard tyre screeches and started filming it on his phone. He told Channel Seven, “It seems like the car was changing lanes and just the front of the truck clipped the car, and just basically locked in the front and kept on pushing.” The Uber driver and two passengers all escaped with just bruises and were assisted by witnesses after the terrifying ordeal. Sam Broome told Seven she was about turn on to the highway when she saw the events unfolding. “They were pretty upset, pretty shaken, pretty shocked,” she said. The day after the incident, police went to the truck company's Warwick Farm headquarters to interview the driver and management. Video credit: Niall Little via Facebook

The new 50-second clip unveils the first look at 27-year-old Robbie masterfully whizzing around the ice. “America, they want someone to love,” the Australian star narrates in a very impressive Oregon accent. “But they want someone to hate.” <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/aOidmyXkbyQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe> The film tells the tale behind the shocking 1994 attack on figure skater Nancy Kerrigan. Tonya, now 46, was infamously accused of ordering the attack and received a lifetime ban from the U.S. Figure Skating Association. Tonya’s bodyguard and ex-husband was enlisted to break Nancy’s legs and although he bungled the job, Nancy was force out of the U.S. Figure Skating Championship. The next month, both Tonya and Nancy competed in the Winter Olympics in Lillehammer. Tonya came eight, whereas Nancy earned a silver medal. Tonya pleaded guilty to conspiracy to hinder their prosecution, managing to keep herself out of prison. I, Tonya hits theatres on December 8.
