From Hollywood to the world, this is Entertainment and celebrity news today. Rachel Lake Cook recently opened up about rewatching her first big movie role as an adult. She starred as Mary Anne in the babysitter's club, a 1995 film about a group of pre-teen girls who turned their babysitting gig into a day camp while dealing with friendships, crushes, and family issues. The movie hit theaters on August 18, 1995, marking Cook's debut on the big screen. She shared these memories during a podcast appearance, reflecting on how the project felt back then. In 2018, the cast got together in Austin with their young kids to screen the film. They had some strong margaritas beforehand, which led to plenty of laughs in the theater. One castmate, Larissa Alinnick, who played Don, had everyone cracking up with her spot-on reaction to a funny line about Christie's dead. The whole group was in stitches. Cook also admitted she knew the original books well, but downplayed her own role at the time. She figured it was an easy part compared to the lead,

using that to stay calm and not feel overwhelmed by the experience. The Daily News Now is made possible with support from our sponsor. Podcasts hit different when the sound comes from your pillow. Once you try it, it just makes sense. S-O-L-I-SoliPillow.com
