During the ongoing criminal trial of British comedian and actor Russell Brand at London’s Southwark Crown Court, the presiding judge dismissed an indecent assault charge due to insufficient evidence.

A judge overseeing Russell Brand’s criminal trial has dismissed an indecent assault charge against the British comedian and actor, replacing it with a count of attempted indecent assault. Mr Justice Bennathan made the decision midway through the trial, telling jurors that he had concluded there was “insufficient evidence” to support the indecent assault charge in connection with an alleged incident involving a female MTV employee in 2001, according to Sky News. Details of the alleged incident The allegation relates to an incident in which Brand allegedly grabbed the woman by the arm and tried to drag her into a toilet. The judge subsequently added a charge of attempted indecent assault to the indictment, relating to the same alleged incident. While Brand has been formally acquitted of the original indecent assault count, jurors will still be asked to consider whether he attempted to commit the alleged offense. To formalise the decision, the judge selected one juror to deliver a not-guilty verdict on the original charge. Describing the procedure as a “slightly artificial process,” Bennathan told the jury, “The defendant Russell Brand has entered a not-guilty plea to this count.” The development came after the court heard four police statements given by Brand. Overview of charges and allegations Brand, 51, who rose to fame as a stand-up comedian and television presenter before launching a Hollywood career with films including “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” and “Get Him to the Greek,” has denied all allegations of wrongdoing. The trial at London’s Southwark Crown Court centers on allegations made by six women concerning incidents dating from 1999 to 2009. Brand originally faced seven charges, including three counts of rape, three of sexual assault and one of indecent assault. Courtroom testimony and prosecution case The proceedings have featured testimony from several women who have accused Brand of sexual misconduct. Last week, a fourth accuser told the court that Brand had sexually assaulted her while she was working at a radio station in 2004 or 2005. She alleged that he pushed her against a wall, forcibly kissed her and touched her breasts and buttocks while people accompanying him looked on without intervening. During the prosecution’s opening arguments, Riel Karmy-Jones KC described Brand as “ruthless and calculated,” alleging that his sexual appetite was “indiscriminate and voracious.” Prosecutors have argued that the six women, who did not know one another, came forward independently. The criminal investigation followed a joint investigation by The Sunday Times and Channel 4’s “Dispatches” in September 2023, which brought allegations of rape, sexual assault and emotional abuse against Brand into the public eye. Brand has pleaded not guilty to all seven charges against him.

I hope it’s just wine and roses, milk and honey from here on out.

But 16 years later, he made a full-circle return to the ER, this time as Dr Michael "Robby" Robinavitch in HBO Max's The Pitt, a role that won him an Emmy, a Golden Globe, a star on the Walk of Fame, and finally led to his Sexiest Man Alive crowning.</p>

Noah Wyle is the people's sexiest man alive! After an Emmy-winning comeback with The Pitt, Noah Wyle has finally claimed the well-deserved crown. The news has been especially celebrated by millennials who have loved the actor since his ER days as Dr John Carter. Wyle succeeds Bridgerton's Jonathan Bailey, who was crowned in 2025. However, when Wyle was first told what he had been chosen for, he thought it was a prank. He told People: ‘I thought that sounded like a prank, just not in a million years did I think that this would be an honour bestowed on me.’' ‘’I hope this changes everything. I hope it’s just wine and roses, milk and honey from here on out. [Laughs] No, I don’t, but I am going to take a lot of ribbing from friends and family for sure,'' he said. From ER to The Pitt: Noah Wyle is PEOPLE'S Sexiest Man Alive 2026 Aired in 1994, ER was one of the first medical dramas and continues to rule the hearts of millennials. The show, which had George Clooney as the breakout lead, had Noah Wyle playing Dr John Carter, and with his boyish looks and charm, he was enough to make an entire generation swoon. After the show ended in 2009 after 15 seasons, Wyle went on to star in other shows. But 16 years later, he made a full-circle return to the ER, this time as Dr Michael "Robby" Robinavitch in HBO Max's The Pitt, a role that won him an Emmy, a Golden Globe, a star on the Walk of Fame, and finally led to his Sexiest Man Alive crowning.

The North American box office saw an intriguing contest this weekend. DC Studios’ Clayface secured the top position in its opening weekend, while A24’s You Can See Everything delivered a strong second-weekend performance.

A buzzy new documentary about jailed tech CEO Elizabeth Holmes gave "Clayface", a gory Batman villain origin story, a run for its money at this weekend's domestic box office, industry estimates showed Sunday. "Clayface", from Warner Bros. and DC Comics, debuted in first place with $24 million in the US and Canada, but A24's "You Can See Everything" was not far behind at $20 million, according to Exhibitor Relations. That represents the second biggest weekend ever for a documentary -- after Fahrenheit 9/11 (2004) -- and an "extremely rare" 28 per cent increase from its debut the prior week, according to analyst David A. Gross of Franchise Entertainment Research. Also Read: Javed Akhtar backs Rashmika Mandanna after Koffee With Karan 9 accent trolling, calls out ‘linguistic superiority’ The three-hour documentary, co-directed by comedian Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, follows Holmes and her family at home in 2023 during the month before she began an 11-year prison sentence.

In fourth place, falling from first last week, was Paramount's "Street Fighter" at $8.6 million. Based on the beloved Capcom video game, "Street Fighter" follows super-powered martial artists competing in a global tournament who uncover and battle a sinister conspiracy. Fifth place went to Black Bear's "Wicker", which debuted at $5.8 million. The film stars Olivia Colman as a lonely fisherwoman and Alexander Skarsgard as her fantastical husband made out of wicker, whose housework -- and bedroom skills -- quickly become the talk of the town.
