Lana Condor hinted during the press tour of her popular romance film To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before that she and co-star Noah Centineo felt sparks between them when they met on set but chose to be professionals and did not date each other. Their chemistry in the film seemed to be great anyway, so fans believed the story.

However, the real reason for them not getting together despite their obvious chemistry might not be what Condor claimed. The actress is currently married to musician Anthony De La Torre and claimed on several occasions that they began dating after meeting at the 2015 Emmys, a full three years before To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before released.

The couple tied the knot at the Serra Franciscan Retreat Center in Malibu, Calif., which is a special place to her as it holds a connection to her late mother.

“My mother had wanted to spend some special one-on-one time together, and had heard about Serra Retreat and the amazing work they do there,” Lana recalled to Vogue.

“My mother Mary recently passed away, leaving my entire family devastated,” she shared. “But she would not have wanted us to not celebrate our love. We really wanted to get married at the...

Rory Culkin, starring in one of the most interesting and weird true stories of all time should be a slam dunk, and it almost is, except when I think about it, it is miles away. Mayhem was an extraordinary component of the Norwegian Black Metal scene of the 80s and early 90s. Suicide, murder, church burnings and huffing from a bag of dead stuff was the order of the day. Whenever I meet goths in real life, they are unfailingly the nicest people you would ever be lucky enough to meet. Here they are not quite so cuddly.

The early (black) humour and shock value sadly quickly fall away, and what is left is a very...

Lana Condor and Anthony De La Torre aren't officially married yet, but they already seem to know the secret to a successful marriage: compromise. In an interview with Popsugar promoting Amazon's wedding registry platform, the pair revealed that they're already compromising on everything, starting with their wedding gifts. "I love cheese, and Anthony is dairy-free. My life revolves around cheese," the "To All the Boys I've Loved Before" actor says. "One of the things that we got from our wedding registry is this charcuterie board, but it's something really only I can indulge in." The musician, on the other hand, loves espresso. Lana adds, "I'm not the biggest espresso fan, so he can get his own little espresso machine."

Lana learned the value of compromise from her parents, Mary and Bob Condor. "My parents tell me that what marriage is all about is compromise and being able to share," the 25-year-old says.

Noah Centineo may have captured our hearts in shows like "The Fosters" and "Austin & Ally," but he became a certified heartthrob with "Sierra Burgess Is a Loser" and his breakout film, "To All the Boys I've Loved Before." Up next, he's set to return to the big screen in "Black Adam" alongside Dwayne Johnson - but his love life offscreen has been pretty hush-hush for the most part.

Over the years, he's been loosely linked to a number of stars, including his Netflix costar Lana Condor and even Camila Cabello after he appeared as her love interest in the "Havana" music video. Condor - who is engaged to Anthony De La Torre - explicitly denied dating Centineo in a 2018 interview with Us Weekly.

Although he's not too public about his love life, Centineo definitely has a romantic side - at least judging by a story he told about his...

Welcome back to the “American Horror Story” franchise, Denis O’Hare. The three-time Emmy nominee for “AHS: Murder House,” “AHS: Freak Show” and “This Is Us” appears as a creepy dollhouse manager wearing spectacles and a blue bowtie in Hulu’s just-released “American Horror Stories” Season 2 trailer (watch above). “This is my private dollhouse,” he tells an unwitting woman in a yellow dress (Kristine Froseth) who has entered his plastic arena. “There’s only one way out of here, young lady, and it’s not through any windows or doors.” Read on to see the full “‘American Horror Stories” cast list.

Lana Condor is getting married to Anthony De La Torre, and she has lots of thoughts about her big day. The actor - who stars in Netflix's new teen supernatural comedy "Boo B*tch," which premiered on July 8 - is taking a laid-back approach to her upcoming nuptials.

"Growing up, I knew I always wanted to get married and have a beautiful wedding, but I wasn't like Pinterest-ing or figuring out every detail," she said in a March 18 interview with People. "Anthony and I are both pretty go with the flow. So as we plan, we're just going with what we feel in the moment."

As if planning her own wedding wasn't enough, Condor has released a wedding collection in partnership with Amazon Handmade. It features handcrafted items and accessories "perfect for any bridal shower, bachelorette party, wedding gift and more," she wrote on Instagram on May 17.

Here's...

When she's not stealing our hearts in the To All the Boys franchise, Lana Condor is giving us glimpses of her real-life love story with Anthony De La Torre. The pair first met in 2015 at an Emmys party, and they instantly hit it off. In fact, Condor admitted that De La Torre has been writing her love letters ever since they started dating, just like her Talb character Lara Jean!

In January 2022, Condor announced that she and De La Torre got engaged. "Saying Yes was the easiest decision I've ever made," Condor wrote in her Instagram caption. "I consider myself the absolute luckiest woman alive to live in your sphere . . . Emmy & Timmy said it's about time mommy & daddy got engaged!!!"

When they're not attending movie premieres together, they're showing off their romance on social media. They've even done a few romantic music videos together! Ahead, see some of their cutest photos.

To all the boys Lana Condor has loved before, Anthony De La Torre has you beat. For the Netflix star's 25th birthday May 11, her fiancé shared a heartwarming post on Instagram which featured candid shots of Lana alone and with Anthony. "Happy birthday to this beautiful human being," the actor wrote. "You are so giving, loving, selfless, adorable, the hardest worker in the room, powerful, sexy, intelligent, inspirational, supportive and every one of us who are in your life are luckier than we know.

Lana Condor rang in her 25th birthday on May 11 with a sparkling engagement ring on her finger and a sweet message from fiancé Anthony De La Torre. On Wednesday, De La Torre shared a carousel of photos on Instagram, including outtakes from their joint "Anyone Else But You" music video and snapshots of Condor that could easily pass as romantic screenshots from "To All the Boys I've Loved Before."

"Thank you for existing."

"Happy birthday to this beautiful human being," De La Torre wrote. "You are so giving, loving, selfless, adorable, the hardest worker in the room, powerful, sexy, intelligent, inspirational, supportive and every one of us who are in your life are luckier than we know. Happy birthday Angel. Thank you for existing. Also, a Huge congratulations to God for making someone so dope. You did it Man! Way to go."

With "To All the Boys I've Loved Before" author Jenny Han on board as creator, writer, and executive producer of the spinoff series, we know we're going to get the same adorably awkward moments and grand gestures of romance from the second generation of Covey love stories. Han will also serve as co-showrunner alongside Sascha Rothchild, whose notable works include "Glow" and "The Baby-Sitters Club."

All the boys clearly need to take notes from Lana Condor's fiancé, Anthony De La Torre. During a March 28 appearance on The Tonight Show, the To All the Boys I've Loved Before actress shared with host Jimmy Fallon that her boyfriend of more than six years put a lot of thought into her engagement ring. "He worked with this Vietnamese family-owned jeweler from Canada—Paris Jewelers—to make it, and he knows how important my heritage is to me," she said. "And he knows that paying it forward means a lot to me as well. And so, he worked with these beautiful ladies there, and I'm so happy. I can't believe...

To all the boys she's loved before: Lana Condor is engaged! The 24-year-old actress said "Yes" after her boyfriend of six years, actor-musician Anthony De La Torre, proposed with a stunning diamond ring from Paris Jewellers, she announced on her Instagram on Jan. 28. Alongside engagement photos shot by Lucas Rossi, Lana wrote in the caption that accepting "was the easiest decision I've ever made." "I consider myself the absolute luckiest woman alive to live in your sphere," she continued in a message to Anthony, 28. "Aside from my father, without a doubt, you are the greatest man in the world." Plus, as a coparent to their dogs Emmy and Timmy, she joked,...

Congratulations to Lana Condor and Anthony De La Torre, who are now engaged! The "To All the Boys I've Loved Before" star announced the big news on Instagram on Jan. 28, sharing several pictures of the happy couple from a photoshoot.

De La Torre also shared their photos on his Instagram page, writing in a caption, "That moment when you ask your best friend to be by your side forever . . . I've wanted to do this for 6 years. The easiest decision I've ever made was to ask this angel to be my wife."

Condor and De La Torre...

Lana Condor is switching up her style. The 23-year-old actress took to Instagram on Feb. 25 to debut her pastel pink tresses—writing, "Did a thing." The hair transformation comes shortly after Condor released her song "Anyone Else But You" with Anthony De La Torre. "Get 'Anyone Else But You' to 5 mil streams and I'll keep it," she posted in regard to her new look. "U know I love my pink." Th star can thank Dimitris Giannetos for the 'do. According to his bio, the hairstylist has styled several celebrities like Camila Cabello and Britney Spears. "L A N A Condor," Giannetos wrote in a separate post....

In our Q&a series Last Call, we get down to the bottom of every last thing with some of our favorite celebs - from the last thing they texted to the last thing they binge-watched. This week, actress and (new!) singer Lana Condor takes our call.

The world fell in love with Lana Condor after starring as everyone's favorite, Lara Jean Covey, in To All The Boys I've Loved Before. And while we already know she's an amazing actress, it turns out she also has the voice of an angel - what can't this girl do?!

After spending quarantine covering songs with her musician boyfriend Anthony De La Torre, she ended up recording her very first original single, "For Real," which Lana and her producer Andrew Tufano said was inspired by a recent journal entry about her relationship. "Almost immediately we turned it into this song about how maybe...

Lana Condor fits so perfectly in the role of rom-com heroine Lara Jean in the To All The Boys I've Loved Before series, we can't help be curious about her romantic past. Despite the rumors (and there have been a lot of them), her love life has actually been extremely low-key and non-dramatic. She's been dating her current boyfriend for about four years.

Long before Lana hit it big time with To All The Boys, she met her longtime boyfriend Anthony De La Torre - the only relationship Lana has openly talked about having. Anthony is a musician and actor, best known for his role as young Jack Sparrow in the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. The pair first met in 2015 at an Emmys party - one of Lana's first big Hollywood parties.

She told Cosmopolitan how they caught each other's eye at one point, only for him to boldly approach her.

Name a better friendship duo than Lana Condor and Noah Centineo. I'll wait - and I'll still be waiting until the end of time because it's pretty darn hard to find a pair of Hollywood pals cuter than them. The To All the Boys I've Loved Before costars - who play Lara Jean Covey and Peter Kavinsky in the Netflix rom-com, respectively - have explosive onscreen chemistry that certainly doesn't stop once the cameras stop rolling, as evidenced by their plethora of absurdly adorable interviews about each other. But alas, Lana and Noah are just besties Irl and won't be exploring a romantic relationship anytime soon, especially considering the fact that Lana has been dating actor Anthony De La Torre for quite some time now.

In honor of Lana and Noah's too-pure-for-this-world friendship and the upcoming P.S. I Still Love You, we're taking a look back at their cutest photos together.

Ever since his breakout role in Netflix's To All the Boys I've Loved Before (and even before that on Freeform's The Fosters), Noah Centineo has fans everywhere swooning. He followed up his first Netflix role by playing the popular-yet-sensitive love interest in Sierra Burgess Is a Loser, as well as in the more recent rom-com The Perfect Date, and we're already anticipating the return of Peter Kavinsky in the forthcoming To All the Boys I've Loved Before sequel. But despite playing the ultimate Netflix boyfriend, Noah is surprisingly quiet about his own romantic life. As much as we'd like to think he's holding out for us, here's everything we actually know about all of the girls he's loved before.

According to Us Weekly, the 23-year-old actor is currently romancing Alexis Ren. Noah was reportedly spotted getting cozy with the 22-year-old Dancing With the Stars alum when he picked her...

I’d been eagerly awaiting Lords of Chaos after first hearing about the adaptation a good while ago. I was a big fan of the book when it was released and spent many years in my late teens and early twenties listening to the deepest and darkest of black metal. I was a fan, and to this day I still enjoy some of the black metal bands I listened to back in the day but lean towards those without the messages of racism and other isms and ignorant views for obvious reasons. I have never limited myself with the music I listen to. I listen to folk, rock, death and thrash, blues and even some country music.

Rory Culkin and Sky Ferreira star in the disturbing, darkly comic new trailer for Lords of Chaos, director Jonas Åkerlund’s upcoming horror-dramedy film about the ill-fated Norwegian black-metal band Mayhem – and the series of crimes in the 1990s that define the band’s legacy. The movie, which premiered at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival, hits theaters on February 8th.

The clip, soundtracked by Sigur Rós, opens with young guitarist Euronymous (Culkin) narrating his innocent early days. “Here I am: an average teenager, may think,” he says. “But you couldn’t be more wrong.

I love a good poster about as much as I love a good death metal tune. And so it pleases me that today we can pass along the poster for director Jonas Akerlund's Lords of Chaos starring Rory Culkin, Emory Cohen, Sky Ferreira, Jack Kilmer, and Valter Skarsgard. For those of you that might not be aware of the film or its killer backstory, Lords of Chaos is based on the 1998 non-fiction book of the same name by Michael Moynihan and Didrik Soderlind, which follows a series of crimes that occurred in Oslo, Norway in the early 1990s surrounding the black metal bands Mayhem and Burzum.

The film premiered at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival and has been snagging up awesome reviews and killer word-of-mouth ever since. In fact, the movie currently holds a 91% fresh rating over on Rotten Tomatoes. The site doesn't currently have a Critics Consensus but the score...

High school students Eric Carter and Johnny Grissom are best friends. Johnny is a heavy metal rebel nicknamed “Johnny Gruesome” by his classmates. When Johnny is murdered while on a drunken joyride, his killer persuades Eric and Johnny’s girlfriend to help him make the murder look like an accidental death. Johnny returns from the grave as a murderous, wisecracking zombie hell bent on revenge.

Writer/director Gregory Lamberson adapts his own novel, which was originally produced as a screenplay way before Lamberson would go on to direct cult hit Slime City in 1986, a story that was also filmed – as a short – back in 2007. And given that Lamberson’s original screenplay was written in 1984 it seems apt that the film feels,...

For the love of all that is good and holy, Lana Condor and Noah Centineo need to stop overloading us with gushy interviews about each other. Actually, no, they don't, because we love following along with their not-romantic-but-borderline-romantic friendship. There have been plenty of moments in which they described their chemistry both on and off camera, but Condor's recent interview with Entertainment Tonight was on another level of sweet as she spoke highly of Centineo and getting to work with him.

"I've never felt chemistry like this ever before with any other actor that I've worked with," she said. "I think we both know that it's special and I'm just happy that it's him that I'm going through all this with. We make a really, really good team. It's been crazy.

Teenagers can be rebellious, but Johnny Gruesome takes that to a whole new level.

Heat Vision has the exclusive first trailer for the film, which is based on writer-director Gregory Lamberson's 2007 novel, which was actually based on a screenplay he wrote in 1984 when he was just 19.

The story centers on rebellious teenager Johnny Grissom, who is murdered during a drunken joy ride. His friends attempt to make his death look like an accident, but Johnny has other ideas — he returns from the dead as a supernatural creature to seek revenge.

Dead men tell no tales, and the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise should really stop telling them too. Unfortunately, Disney’s been beating this dead horse for far too long, and the fifth entry into the franchise is no exception. As the coldly calculated Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales proves, it is time to let this series rest in peace, or at the very least, spend the rest of its doomed, immortal days sinking to the bottom of the ocean.

The film opens with fraudulent promise as the young son of forever-cursed Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) and Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) is sinking himself to the depths of the deep blue, where he lands upon the deck of the Flying Dutchman. Once on board, Will Turner’s son Henry (Brenton Thwaites) argues with his barnacle-faced father, insisting that he knows how to break the curse that...
