Dakota Johnson may be stepping behind the camera.

(CNN)- Dakota Johnson may be stepping behind the camera. While speaking at a film festival in the Czech Republic, the actress revealed she’s exploring a directorial debut on a small, personal project she described as “close to my heart.” Johnson hopes to collaborate with Vanessa Burghardt — who played her daughter in the 2022 indie film Cha Cha Real Smooth. “We were like, we would really love to make this movie with you,” Johnson told reporters, hinting at a reunion that could mark a new chapter in her career.

In the world of music, Ed Sheeran is back in the spotlight — again. Apple Music has unveiled its list of the most-streamed songs of the past decade, and Sheeran’s 2017 smash hit “Shape of You” claims the top spot. Another song from his Divide album, “Perfect,” came in at number eight, reinforcing the British singer’s long-running streaming dominance.

And for fans of baseball and big swings, Roy Wood Jr. is taking a deep dive into one of the game’s most exciting traditions: the Home Run Derby. In his new special, Going, Going, Gone: The Magic of the Home Run, the comedian explores the cultural and athletic impact of the long ball.

“I’ve been obsessed with the home run as long as I can remember,” Wood says in the documentary, which features conversations with major league legends and plenty of laughs. When asked if he could hit one himself, the answer was blunt: “In wiffle ball, yes.” Going, Going, Gone is now streaming on The Roku Channel.
