    Woody Allen calls Trump a 'pleasure to work with' on film set, praises him as an actor
    Although Hollywood filmmaker Woody Allen isnt a supporter of President Donald Trump, he told comedian Bill Maher that Trump was a "pleasure to work with" on a movie set.On the latest episode of Mahers "Club Random" podcast posted Monday, Allen recalled directing Trump in his 1998 film "Celebrity" and praised the former presidents cameo."No, Im not a Trumper. Im one of the few people who can say he directed Trump. I directed Trump in a movie in Celebrity. And he was, you know, he was a pleasure to work with and a very good actor," the 89-year-old director told Maher.BILL MAHER SLAMS MODERN ENTERTAINERS FOR LACKING OLD-SCHOOL WORK ETHICPlaying himself, Trump appeared in a scene with actress Judy Davis, where he discussed tearing down St. Patricks Cathedral in New York City and replacing it with a "very, very tall and beautiful building.""He was very polite and hit his mark and did everything correctly and had a real flair for show business," Allen recalled.Maher joked, "How dare you?""Oh, if you think you were canceled before," Maher added sarcastically, apparently referencing the sexual misconduct allegations against Allen, which Allen has denied.CHICAGO PASTOR BLASTS DEMOCRATS FOR OUTRIGHT LYING ABOUT CRIME, URGES TRUMP TO SEND NATIONAL GUARDAllen quipped, "I wish I could direct him now.

    Father leads international effort to find a cure for sons brain tumor
    St. Judes Childrens Hospital estimates around 400,000 kids around the world will be diagnosed with cancer this year. In the U.S., research and treatments have helped increase survival rates. 80% of kids live five years or more with treatment, but a lot of work is being done to improve that statistic and find cures for more rare forms of cancer."Kids with brain tumors were left behind. Because the treatments are very old, they are from the 80s, believe it or not," Fernando Goldsztein said.Fernandos son, Frederico, was diagnosed with a brain tumor when he was nine years old. Medulloblastoma is the most common brain tumor in children, but it is still rare. Just five out of one million kids are diagnosed with the disease each year, which has made finding funding for new research difficult."Unfortunately, he relapsed," Fernando said. "I was told by the doctors back then that there was nothing to do to save my son, that I should go back to home and spend time with him."WOMAN BEATS DEADLY BRAIN CANCER WITH INVESTIGATIONAL CELL THERAPY: 'TRULY AMAZING'The five-year survival rate for medulloblastoma patients is more than 80%. But if the disease comes back, the five-year survival rate drops to less than 40%."When I received that devastating news five years ago, after two weeks, I kind of recovered, you never recover, right? But I kind of recovered and I said, Ive got to do something, I will do something,'" Fernando said.CANCER DEATHS HIT 'ALARMING' SURGE DUE TO COMMON HEALTH CONDITION, EXPERTS SAYFernando has made it his mission to find a cure for Frederico, who is still dealing with recurrent medulloblastoma at the age of 18. Two years after Fredericos cancer returned, Fernando launched the Medulloblastoma Initiative, or MBI, alongside Dr. Roger Packer, one of the worlds leading Medulloblastoma researchers at Childrens National Hospital in Washington, D.C."We are trying to find a cure for this disease as soon as possible. So, it's a model that brings together the best minds in the field," Fernando said. "MBI is all about collaboration and synergy. The scientists, to be funded by us, they have to work as a group."The initiative has brought together more than a dozen labs from around the world."By each one having each piece of the puzzle, we were able to move very fast and are achieving very interesting results," Fernando said.Since Fox last spoke with MBI, the group has helped fast-track at least two clinical trials at the University of Florida for medulloblastoma and several other studies are in the works."We have much more in our pipeline," Fernando said. "We are excited with these results."INTERNATIONAL EFFORT SEEKS NEW TREATMENTS FOR PEDIATRIC HEART DISEASEIn a clinical trial funded by MBI, scientists are programming patients white blood cells to seek and destroy tumor cells. The results have been promising, and one participants cancer was nearly eliminated.In a separate study still being tested on mice, scientists at the University of Florida are researching an experimental mRNA-based cancer vaccine. The study could lead to a universal shot that helps jump-start a patients immune system when fighting cancer.100% of the donations given to MBI go to supporting research and clinical trials to help kids like Frederico. Fernando says his son is doing well thanks to much of the new research being done."He is an outlier, but we know that this type of tumor comes back, so it's running against time. And that's why we are moving fast to save him and to save thousands of other kids out there," Fernando said.You can learn more or donate to the Medulloblastoma Initiative at https://mbinitiative.org/.

    Naomi Osaka dominates Coco Gauff in straight sets to reach US Open quarterfinals
    Coco Gauffs run at the 2025 U.S. Open has ended, and it was Naomi Osaka, the Japanese star who won the tournament in 2018 and 2020, who made it happen.Osaka, who famously defeated Serena Williams to capture the title in 2018, was playing like she has in the past to reach the top of the womens singles rankings, defeating Gauff in dominant fashion, 6-3, 6-2, to advance to the quarterfinals in Flushing, New York.The No. 23-ranked womens singles player got off to a roaring start, breaking Gauff in the opening game and continuing to roll from there.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMGauff struggled to break Osaka herself, as the latter never once faced a break point on her serve throughout the match. Gauff finished the match with an uncharacteristic 33 unforced errors, which ultimately put her in a rut that Osaka took advantage of."I was super locked in," Osaka said on the court after her match. "I felt like everyone wanted to watch a really great match and I hope thats what you got."COCO GAUFF FIRES BACK AT CRITICS QUESTIONING HER GLAM TENNIS LOOKS AT US OPEN: 'I'M A HUMAN'This is Osakas first trip to the quarterfinals in a Grand Slam since she won the Australian Open in 2021. She has dealt with mental health struggles in the past, bravely speaking up about them while taking a break from the sport as a result.Osaka also gave birth to her daughter, Shai, in 2023, which led to an absence from the court.Osaka addressed the crowd on Monday, saying that she was trying hard not to cry because of how much she loves playing in front of them."Honestly, I have so much fun out here. I was telling everyone, literally, I was out here in the stands two months after giving birth to my daughter and I was watching Coco. I just really wanted an opportunity to come out here and play. This is my favorite court in the world and it means so much to be back here."Osaka and Gauff share a friendship even when theyre pit against each other on the court.

    Democratic Rep. Jerry Nadler will not seek reelection
    U.S. Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., will not seek re-election next year, according to media reports.The move will mark the end of Nadler's 34 years in Congress where he has been a leading liberal voice on a range of issues."Watching the Biden thing really said something about the necessity for generational change in the party, and I think I want to respect that," Nadler told the New York Times.REP. NADLER CONDEMNS TRUMP ADMIN AFTER STAFF MEMBER HANDCUFFED DURING CONGRESSIONAL OFFICE SECURITY SWEEPThat was evident when Nadler, 78, was forced to give up his House Judiciary Committee leadership at the beginning of the term when it became clear a younger, more energetic colleague would beat him.Nadler has been a vocal critic of President Donald Trump, warning fellow Democrats about Trump's leadership style. The two have sparred dating back to the 1980s over Manhattan development projects."Im not saying we should change over the entire party," he said. "But I think a certain amount of change is very helpful, especially when we face the challenge of Trump and his incipient fascism."DEM REP. NADLER PICTURED WITH HEAD DOWN, EYES CLOSED DURING TESTIMONY FROM OTHERS OF MIGRANT CRIME VICTIMSHe ultimately succeeded in steering articles of impeachment through his committee in 2019.Nadler didn't discuss who could potentially succeed him, saying multiple candidates could run to replace him.But a person familiar with his thinking told the Times that Nadler planned to support Micah Lasher, who represents parts of the Upper West Side in the New York State Assembly, should he run.In speaking with the Times, Nadler said he was confident of the Democrats' chances of taking back control of the House next year."Then you can cut the reign of terror in half," he said.Fox News Digital has reached out to Nadler's office.In a post on X, New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani praised Nadler as a champion of progressivism."For more than 30 years, when New Yorkers needed a champion, we have turned to Jerry Nadler - and he has delivered for us time and again," the post states. "Few leaders can claim to have made such an impact on the fabric of our city.""Congress will be worse off without his leadership, but our democracy will be better for the selflessness that has defined a legendary career," he added.In a statement, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., called Nadler a "relentless fighter for justice, civil rights and liberties and the fundamental promise of equality for all.""After the attacks of September 11, 2001, he spent years fighting for the care and support that New York City and his constituents needed to begin to rebuild and heal," said Jeffries. "As Dean of the New York delegation, Congressman Nadler has been a dear friend and valued mentor to myself and so many others throughout the People's House.""Jerrys years of leadership have earned him a spot among our nations greatest public servants," he added. "He will be deeply missed by the House Democratic Caucus next term and we wish him and his family the very best in this new chapter."

    Bill Belichick's UNC coaching debut ends in blowout home loss to TCU
    Bill Belichick had a "welcome to college football" moment on Monday night, as his North Carolina Tar Heels were blown out by the TCU Horned Frogs, 48-14, to begin the 2025 college football season.It was a night filled with expectation, celebrity appearances and pure hype at Kenan Stadium, as Belichicks first taste of being a college football head coach started on home turf in Chapel Hill. The Tar Heels were hoping to usher in a new era with a victory to not only notch another first under Belichicks resume, but get the program heading in the right direction from the jump.The Horned Frogs had another thing in mind, though, as they were fazed by the screaming crowd of over 50,000, which included the likes of Randy Moss, Michael Jordan, Roy Williams, Lawrence Taylor and many more.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMThe Belichick era began with an impressive North Carolina opening-drive touchdown, as the Tar Heels went 83 yards down the field with Caleb Hood capping it with his first score of the season.But it was all TCU after that, scoring 41 unanswered points on their way to an easy victory.TOM BRADY DISHES ON THE 'CHALLENGE' FOR BILL BELICHICK IN 1ST SEASON AT NORTH CAROLINAHorned Frogs quarterback Josh Hoover was dicing up the Tar Heels defense, and it started with a 27-yard strike to Jordan Dwyer, who was a favorite all night long in the pass game, for a touchdown that tied the game at seven apiece following the extra point.TCU got more physical on defense, especially at the line of scrimmage, which hindered what UNC wanted to do when they had possession. The Horned Frogs held them to three straight three-and-outs, while taking the lead with a field goal early in the second quarter.North Carolina seemed to get some momentum back when Hoovers pass was too high for his intended receiver, and the Tar Heels Kaleb Cost made an acrobatic interception to flip the field.But UNC quarterback Gio Lopez gave the ball right back to TCU, and it was in the worst way as veteran safety Bud Clark jumped a route and took the interception 25 yards to the house for a pick-six that made it 17-7. The Horned Frogs would end the half with a short field goal, taking a commanding 20-7 lead into the locker room as the crowd was stunned.That feeling wouldnt end, though, as the very first play of the second half was a 75-yard touchdown run by Horned Frogs star running back Kevorian Barnes, who went untouched down the right sideline to break the game open.UNC was unable to come back at that point, as the Horned Frogs continued to run up the score with running back Trent Battle rushing for 28 yards to make it 34-7, and Lopez was sacked by Jonathan Bax, leading his Horned Frogs teammate Devean Deal to scoop up the fumbled football and run it back 37 yards for yet another touchdown.At that point, Belichick switched quarterbacks, going with Max Johnson, who led a touchdown drive late in the third quarter to add some points for the Tar Heels. But the game was out of reach, and its clear the Tar Heels have much to work on heading into next week.Meanwhile, Hoover showed out in front of many NFL scouts, going 27-of-36 for 284 yards with two touchdown passes and one interception thrown. Barnes had 11 carries for 113 yards, while Dwyer hauled in nine receptions for a whopping 136 yards to help TCUs cause.No one expected Belichick to immediately turn the program around and get them to compete for a national title, but this was a shocking result to be dominated at home to kick off his collegiate coaching career.
