Entertainment Tonight for Tuesday, September 29, 2026

0:00Tonight. Hey, hey, hey, hey! What is going on here? Saved by the Bells, Mr. Belding dead at 75. I really don't think that you have seen a principal quite like Mr. Belding. Dennis Haskins, Final Days, and Secret Health Battle. Zach Morris is the son I never had. How the cast is saying goodbye. I was blessed to have them in my life and for me to be part of theirs. Then Matthew Perry in his own words. I was extremely happy when I got famous. Then that's like, uh-oh, this didn't fix what's inside me. The new doc and his sister's stunning revelation. That certainly was Matthew's story. Plus, a GMA correspondent reveals a cancer battle. The diagnosis was a shock. And Jasmine Guy fires back at critics, shocked by her appearance on a different world. Well, I guess age looks different on everybody. Plus, Princess Diana's brother on the Royal Rift. You're all the boys ever reckon so.

1:00Charles Spencer on ET, and letting the palace know he's not backing down. The British Royal family is extremely powerful. If you dare to stand up against them, they will try and obliterate you. And a Tom Cruise confession. Where did you learn those moves? If you really want to know, you want the girls, you got to know how to dance. ET starts now. It's my house. Now we're in it. Let's go. Princess Diana's brother and the new shocking allegations regarding the Royal family and his nephews at odds. Hello, and welcome to Entertainment Tonight. I'll have so much more from Madame Tussauds, New York. In Times Square and just a bit, but we start with Michelle in LA and the loss of the TV favorite. Indeed, Kevin Frazier. This one is a shock for the generation who grew up unsaved by the bell. The heartbreaking death of Dennis Haskins. I really feel lucky to have this gig. I'm really happy. Who knows how long it'll go. Way to go, Zach.

2:00Should I say, President Morris? How much do you still get stopped in the street? Just a minute ago. Always. Mr. Bell, you know, and I'm grateful. America's favorite principal, Mr. Bellden, passed away at age 75 Sunday night. Dennis was in an assisted living facility in LA at the time of his death, and had secretly been battling Parkinson's disease. And Dennis is out. The last time Dennis was seen in public, he was all smiles at a basketball game in 2018. Today, Mark Paul Gosler tells ET, Dennis was the older brother on set and always there to protect us. He treated us as equals. Tiffany Thieson echoed that saying, he kept us in line while making sure we knew he was in our corner. Mark Vories called him a loyal friend. One of my first scenes with Mark Paul, I said, what do you think about this scene? And he goes, really? Giving them the respect of being equal actors,

3:01changed everything. No cause of death has been released, but his caretaker posted this tribute, quote, about eight years ago he became ill. He had been silent about his fight with Parkinson's. He is now at peace. Entertainment tonight came around a long time ago. I think it really supported us. So I just want to thank you guys. Zach, what do you think is the most important thing about a marriage? That's easy. Kissing. ET has been with the Saved by the Bell crew from their 1989 debut to the 2018 Saved by the Max Pop-Up in LA, where Dennis reflected on being a real-life mentor on set. I didn't feel like I was smarter or better. I'm just like kind of help from all on what do you think or listening and it really honestly was a very important moment for me. I was blessed to have them in my life for me to be part of theirs over those years. So I mean, how lucky am I? I got to work in something I love to do that I have a passion for and people love what we did. Another TV star gone too soon, Matthew Perry.

4:02My brother would talk about that feeling of emptiness or loneliness that he couldn't quite fill. He spent $7 million trying to get sober. That's how seriously he took his disease. His sister Mia, speaking out for the first time in Netflix's new three-part docu-series, the one about Matthew Perry, which premieres October 27th, one day before the third anniversary of the actor's death. All great stories. Have comedy and tragedy in them, and that certainly was Matthew's story. I was extremely happy when I got famous. Then it's like, uh-oh, this didn't fix what's inside me. This didn't do what I thought it was going to do. The two-minute trailer includes unreleased photos and videos from the Perry Family's private archive. But one thing we didn't see? Interviews with Matthew's co-stars from Friends. Instead, it features others from his inner circle and those he met in rehab. I had people telling me to stop, say, you're going to kill yourself, but keep going like this.

5:03And I just didn't know how. I'm always drawn to characters that start off from the somewhat broken place. ET shared so many moments with Matthew from the set of Friends to his recovery journey and mission to give back. When he made people laugh and made him feel good. To have that connection with an audience is a wonderful, sacred thing. I miss you guys. I miss soldiers. Let's turn now to GMA Correspondent Will Reeve's Secret Cancer Battle. This summer, I had to stick your cancer. The diagnosis was a shock and not to mention an unexpected test for us so soon after our wedding. Will, who is the spitting image of his late father and Superman star Christopher Reeve, appeared alongside his wife of nearly nine months, Amanda Dubin, who encouraged him to see a doctor when something felt off. The images confirmed the unfathomable. I would be getting my testicle removed. The tumor was an aggressive form that was moving quickly. I'm interested to see if I remember any of this.

6:04After a successful surgery, two rounds of chemotherapy and cold capping to prevent hair loss, Will is now cancer-free. I got all my clean scans on September 8th and I feel great and the future is bright for sure. Let's switch gears to a different world icon, Jasmine Guy, clapping back at Internet troll, saying Whitley Gilbert did not age well, even comparing her to a golden girl in the Netflix reboot. Toxic. The 64-year-old's response? The Internet can be brutal to women as we grow older. I won't pretend every change is easy, but beauty, style, and joy don't have an expiration date. Well, I guess age looks different on everybody. I know I was 25 when I got a different world, and are these characters still going to work now that they're older? ET was exclusive on the Atlanta set of the reboot, leading up to the premiere. Jasmine's post has sparked a larger conversation about the double-standard women face with aging in Hollywood,

7:05many saying it's unfair to compare Jasmine to a version of herself from nearly 40 years ago. We cannot live by the public, or whoever. It is that dictates what's wrong and what's right in the business. I just sound older, you know. And she taps up here, so I wasn't sure if I could pitch it up there, still. But we still got it. We still got it. Someone else speaking out, Princess Diana's brother, Charles Spencer. I think it's important for your viewers to know. The British Royal Family is extremely powerful. They're not just these people who put on fancy clothes for state occasions. They have serious power, a lot of control over sections of the media. If you dare to stand up against them as Diana did, forget me. As Diana did, they will try to obliterate you. Those claims align with what Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been saying for seven years. There are another one in to tell the truth to Piotot.

8:05Nobody justifies the level of hate that they attract in some of the media. As for William, New reports today claim he feels betrayed by his uncle's book, Swan Song, Diana My Sister, which is out now. The Prince kept calm and carried on with Kate, visiting a rugby pitch today in Leeds. Will the boys ever reconcile? There's lots more, these little splinters that we don't see. And these are not easily recovered. If I want people to take one quality away, that they may not know about Diana, she had the heart of a lion. One of the tragedies of her passing so young is, she would have been an even greater grandmother. In July, Harry and Meghan took Archie and Lilabette to their grandmother's final resting place. Meanwhile, Spencer revealed Diana's childhood home, Parkhouse, has fallen into disrepair and is another blow to her legacy. The last time I was there, I could see trees sprouting out of the chimneys. And I know the local fire service used it for practice. They go in there because it's pretty much trashed inside. That's where Diana was born.

9:06And I think it says quite a lot that the royal family who have ownership of this house have just let it decay. Your critics have come out and said, oh, this guy's got divorced so many times. He needs to write a book to make money. What do you say to those critics? Because it seems like it's a cheap shot. It's a very cheap shot. I don't want a sound of notchers, but I genuinely don't need the money. So many fascinating revelations in this book and I believe there'll be even more information coming out as we count down to Diana's 30th anniversary of her death. Michelle, back to you. All right, Kav, great interview. We'll see you in just a little bit. Now, let's turn to Tom Cruises' digger world tour arriving right here in L.A. I reunited with Tom, who's movie star Confessions, continue to surprise me. This is our party, man. It's my house. Now listen, so we saw you dancing with the mariachi. Where did you learn those moves?

10:07I grew up watching Soul Train. Tom, don't play with my emotions. I had to be like a squirty god. You want the girls? You got to learn, you got to know how to dance. Stand in front of that television, and then you're just practicing all the time. That's where it is a kid. That was the thing, because on Sunday nights, they had dances. So all the girls wanted to dance, so I got to know how to dance. Next time, man you, Soul Train line. Next time, man you're in London. We saw so many of your friends come visit you. Will you make a bet comes where they're there? Hannah Wattie, them in Simon and Salma. Can you share what they loved about the film? They were just blown away. You said if you saw Princess Kate, you would say, how you doing toots? I like your skirt. I'm taking down you. I gotta tell you, those two are the best small talkers I've ever been. I just listened and kept my app shut. It turns out he's a labosky fan.

11:07Which I didn't expect that at all. And no one expected Tom's total transformation into Digger. The dark comedy in theaters Friday follows the eccentric cat loving billionaire who's trying to save the world from an environmental disaster his company created. Are you a dog person? Are you a cat person? No, I'm an animal person. Digger is obsessed with Maggie the Cat. And by the way, Maggie over there in that corner has been sending me all night. I think they got a fixed Maggie a little bit. I don't know. Still ahead. Jessica Chastain ready to give you nightmares. I've seen you in a lot of movies. I've never seen that scary face. The unlikely inspiration behind this. I smiled and they went, then the rocky secret sliced alone kept for 50 years. Did you learn it here first? Plus only ETs on set as Mark Cuban, Shock Shark Tank. Oh! Not tonight, mayor. 25 Years One Amazing Night The amazing race 25 years around the world airs tonight on CBS.

12:10New interviews never before seen footage untold stories. Hey everybody, it's Kevin Frazier. The ET podcast is a great listen when you're on the go. But the TV show, even better to watch every weekday when you're at home. Check your local listings for where ET airs in your market or go to ETOnline.com. Can I go into your heart? How did you come up with the face, the look? I was talking about maybe not using prosthetics. I kind of made this face but with a lot of tension. And there was a five-year-old. And I just said, what do you think about this? And I smiled. And they went, No! We got it. Mommy. Ready to get up? Jessica Chastain takes motherly instincts to a monstrous new level in other bombing. Other bombing out October 9th. She plays dual roles as the safe and loving mom Ursula.

13:10I'm mom. And whatever this nightmare is. The way you can toward and under the table. Fortunately, not all of those limbs are mine. My only form of exercises carrying suitcases and yoga. So I'm able to kind of go into positions that feel like this shouldn't be possible. Sterling Point star Jay Duplas co-stars as her husband who is also hunted by this unknown entity. She said she was like you. What? Looks like the woman you sleep. Looks like the woman that I'm hoping that I'm sleeping. It's the scariest thing in the world. Halloween will never be the same at Jessica's house. Coming up, Sylvester Stallone and his rocky reality. I won't become bulimic. I couldn't hold anything down. I'm an eating disorder to steroid use. Nobody does it without you know, additives and drugs. Slime reveals his body obsession and the terrible toll it took.

14:10Now you're getting personal. Shark Tank takes a bite out of Georgia. I'm a peach kind of guy. ET first on the new set now in Atlanta. Hey ET, I'm gonna give you a little tour. Plus the Celeb guest sharks not getting southern hospitality. I don't like any of them. Next ET and Hathaway versus Tom Cruise. I wouldn't expect to net. Inside their box office showdown before they hit the track. Everybody goes crazy. Plus we're in the ballroom for a yacht rock week on Dancing with the Stars. I don't think I can talk this. Then. An amazing race to remember behind the scenes of Michelle's leap of faith. What is wrong with me? Next ET. The End Do you want to ask you about your body? Body? Body. Yes, you're physique. Now you're getting personal. How did you see yourself?

15:10It was my armor and then it became an obsession. Really bad. It became the point where I became bulimic. You didn't know that. Okay, you were very here first. I got down to 2.6 body fat when I was doing Rocky 3 in the opening scene. And I couldn't hold anything down. For the first time, Sylvester Stallone is opening up about his struggles, telling the New York Times the body we saw on screen in Rambo and Rocky was a lie that came at a very big cost. Nobody does it without you know, additives and drugs. I don't care who they say. It has to be. It's your team's stories are saying. Oh my god, you have to. You don't get that way naturally. You don't. But that also took a terrible toll. I've had nine back operation, two shoulder operation, three neck fusion, everything. ET has been on set with Sly many times over his career. Back in 1989, he was candid about his compulsion to exercise. It's become an addiction.

16:11And if I slip off, I can't even think. If I start to get out of shape, it throws the whole balance off. Despite everything he's been through, the Oscar nominee isn't slowing down. I'm going to get it all back. His Paramount Plus show Tulsi came returns October 16th. A new biopic, I play Rocky, hits theaters on November 6th. And in his new memoir, The Steps Out Today, more surprises. You were living in places where you literally had pizza boxes for your mattress. I did, yeah. You were very comfortable. Rocky turns 50 next year, you turn A.B., which I could not believe. I can either. I wish I had my, this was the my up now. Back then, to really save her at these moments. Wow, the things that man has overcome. Alright, let's head to Atlanta now and the new home of Shark Tank. ET was exclusive on set for season 18's unexpected shark sighting, Mark Cuban. I haven't been back since I left the show and so I'm surprised everybody.

17:13And so I walked in like I was a pitch just to freak them all out. So, Mark is like a big brother to me. And you know, it made me really realize how much I miss him. Oh, it's a nightmare. I had so much fun telling him I'm out. I'm like, I know that is not Mark Cuban. He's all swollen. Just see the look on the face and then I had to give him a hard time. He estimated $6 billion business man left the show in 2025 after 13 years as a super shark. But, would he return? I miss the most helping the entrepreneurs when they come on. He changed lives, right? You literally do. Sharks. The balls in your court. Who wants to get the good times rolling? We'll see more lives change when season 18 premieres tomorrow on ABC. And we got an exclusive tour of the shark's brand new home on Tyler Perry's sprawling 367 acre studio in Georgia. Hey ET, welcome to the Atlanta set of Shark Tank and I'm going to give you a little tour.

18:14Okay, so that's my chair over there which has triple cushions. And that's the secret. This is the Shark Tank Isle. So, follow me here. If I were an entrepreneur and I was about to come in to pitch the sharks, I would break in through these doors. And it dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun. And I'd walk down the Shark Tank Isle. You can see shark swimming to the right and to the left. This season's guest sharks are already smelling blood in the water. The powerful lineup includes Mr. Beast, Mindy Kaling, JJ Watts, Steven Bartlett, and the foster sisters. All with their work cut out for them. I don't like any of them. They're after my seat. Oh, I crushed them like the cockroaches they are. Still ahead. The mummy returns again. Bring the band back together. Our first look at Brendan Fraser on set. Hey everybody, it's Kevin Fraser. The ET podcast is a great listen when you're on the go.

19:16But the TV show, even better to watch every weekday when you're at home. Check your local listings for where ET airs in your market or go to ETOnline.com. Tomorrow on ET before Tom and Ann hit the days of ThunderTrak, they will face off at the box office our new interview with Ann Halfway. Before we go, let's get back to Nishel in LA with some more movie nostalgia. Kevin Fraser, this one gives me all the feels. We're going to leave you now with Brendan Fraser and Rachel Vise returning to their mummy roots. Good night everybody. We are in serious trouble. But good trouble. Check out this new photo of the Oscar winner, Crash Helmut in hand, filming on a former military base in Suffolk, England for the new mummy movie. Why the Helmut? Well, check out his ride. A vintage silver and red rocket car for a 1957 speed sequence. Meanwhile, his on-screen librarian love, Rachel Vise, in full 50s fashion was filming 97 miles away in London.

20:25The next installment in the over $1.8 billion franchise will storm into theaters May 19, 2028. Let's just say Brendan manifested this return when ET visited the Morocco set of the original back in 1998. It could pave the way for a whole new series of money pictures. Who knows?
