Ten Years Before Rob and Michele Reiner Were Killed in Their Home, Rob Made a Movie About the Family's Tensions, Including With Son Nick https://t.co/CUwsq8gFbh
SAG-AFTRA today honors the legacy of filmmaker, actor and SAG-AFTRA member Rob Reiner, who died today at the age of 78. Rob Reiner was a member of our union for nearly 60 years. We send love and warmth to Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner’s families, friends and colleagues.
In the span of six years, Rob Reiner had one of the best runs in director history:
1986 - "Stand by Me"
1987 - "The Princess Bride"
1989 - "When Harry Met Sally..."
1990 - "Misery"
1992 - "A Few Good Men"
Jen and I are heartbroken by the tragic loss of Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner.
Rob was the big-hearted genius behind so many of the classic stories we love, with projects as wide-ranging as The Princess Bride to A Few Good Men. His boundless empathy made his stories timeless, teaching generations how to see goodness and righteousness in others — and encouraging us to dream bigger.
That empathy extended well beyond his films. Rob was a passionate advocate for children and for civil rights — from taking on Big Tobacco, fighting for marriage equality, to serving as a powerful voice in early education. He made California a better place through his good works.
Rob will be remembered for his remarkable filmography and for his extraordinary contribution to humanity.
Rob Reiner, director of “The Princess Bride,” “When Harry Met Sally…,” and “This Is Spinal Tap,” was found dead Sunday afternoon in his Brentwood home alongside his wife, Michele Singer. He was 78.
The deaths are being investigated as a homicide.

Michelle and I are heartbroken by the tragic passing of Rob Reiner and his beloved wife, Michele. Rob’s achievements in film and television gave us some of our most cherished stories on screen. But beneath all of the stories he produced was a deep belief in the goodness of people—and a lifelong commitment to putting that belief into action. Together, he and his wife lived lives defined by purpose. They will be remembered for the values they championed and the countless people they inspired. We send our deepest condolences to all who loved them.
REMINDER: President Biden NEVER cut SNAP payments, never even had a government shutdown.
In fact, he cut child poverty in half.
He cut child hunger, too.
I miss having a REAL President.
It's been over 9 months since the LA fires.
We have asked for federal disaster aid for months now.
Not a dollar from Trump.
He is abandoning Americans while building ballrooms and decorating his office gold.
It’s disgusting and disqualifying.
BREAKING: In a shocking moment, AG Pam Bondi suggests that the DOJ will execute American citizens they deem as Antifa, "Just like we did with cartels, we're going to take this same approach with antifa."
This attorney general is unhinged.
Michael Mann’s ‘HEAT 2’ is officially moving forward, with Leonardo DiCaprio, Bradley Cooper, Adam Driver, and Austin Butler in talks to join the cast.
“It’s been 250 days. now that immigrants have been violently torn from their families...trans ppl have been blamed for virtually everything and live in fear, now that #freespeech is on the brink of collapse for us all — has your life gotten better?” SPEAK IT #ARIANAGRANDE
BREAKING: Legendary superstar Ariana Grande ignites a war with Donald Trump by blasting MAGA world and asking them if their lives have "gotten better" as grocery prices skyrocket and "widespread suffering" unfolds.
She was just getting warmed up — and the White House quickly hit back...
“I want to check in with trump voters. I have one very genuine question: it’s been 250 days. now that immigrants have been violently torn from their families and communities have been destroyed, now that trans people have been blamed for virtually everything and live in fear, now that free speech is on the brink of collapse for us all — has your life gotten better?” read the message reshared to the singer's 373 million followers on Instagram. The message was originally written by podcaster Matt Bernstein.
“Have your groceries gotten cheaper?" the post continued. "Has your health insurance premium gone down? Has your work/life balance improved? Can you take a vacation yet? Are you happier? Has the widespread suffering of others paid off for you in the way he promised it would, or are you still waiting?”
The answer to the question, of course, is a resounding "no." Trump voters were gullible enough to believe that they were voting for a new "Golden Age." Instead, they've been dragged into a MAGA Dark Age as Trump's tariffs destroy the global economy and skyrocket inflation while his "big, beautiful bill" slashes $1 trillion from Medicaid and funnels even more wealth to the super-rich.
Grande has criticized Trump in the past. In June, she shared a photo of a sign that read: “Could someone explain which crimes get you deported and which ones get you elected President? It’s so confusing.”
This time, the celebrity-obsessed Trump administration decided to hit back with a message that made reference to some of Grande's biggest hits.
“Save your tears, Ariana. Because President Trump’s actions ended Joe Biden’s inflation crisis and are bringing in trillions in new investment,” White House Deputy Press Secretary Kush Desai said in a statement to Entertainment Weekly. “He even signed an executive order just like magic that paved the way for the FTC to crack down on Ticketmaster for ripping off Ariana Grande’s concert-going fans. Get well soon, Ariana!”
Notably, Desai didn't address the meat of Grande's post for the simple reason that she can't. Grocery prices are skyrocketing, health insurance is out of control, and people are struggling to survive more than ever. A few tweaks to Ticketmaster won't change that.
Please retweet and ❤️ to thank Ariana Grande for speaking the truth!
You’re already paying more for eggs, coffee, toys, shoes, electricity, furniture, cars, and flights.
Now, Trump wants to raise taxes to see the movies.
PAY MORE AND ENJOY NOTHING.
That’s Donald Trump’s America.
