‘Modern Austen’ Anthology Series Reimagining Of Jane Austen’s Novels In Works At The CW From Producer Stephanie Allain

It’s time to take a trip down memory lane.

Vanessa Hudgens might just have a new man in her life this holiday season! The 31-year-old actress was spotted with her arms wrapped around MLB player Cole Tucker over the weekend. The 24-year-old Pittsburgh Pirates player was standing outside with Hudgens waiting for their car after a dinner date at the Canyon Country Store in Los Angeles. Hudgens wore a chic little black dress and plaid tights with an oversized gray sweater and a black beanie.

One “date night” has fans asking who is Vanessa Hudgens’ boyfriend, Cole Tucker? The High School Musical alum, 31, was photographed holding hands with her new beau, 24, on Saturday, November 21, while out in Los Angeles. Hours later, the Hudgens took to Instagram to hint at her date, sharing a photo of herself posing with a pink rose held to her face. “Date night,” she captioned the flick.

Austin Butler definitely has that Elvis Presley style down.

Hitting the dating scene after a long relationship is difficult enough, but during a global pandemic? Let’s just say it has its challenges.

Normally, we’d look at a remake of “Dial M For Murder” and ask, “Why?” The original play and subsequent film directed by Alfred Hitchcock are classics. So, why mess with a good thing?
