Top Entertainment Highlights: Films, Bids, and Tributes

The latest entertainment news covers the premiere of Kevin Costner's 'Horizon: An American Saga' at the Venice Film Festival, a potential $43 billion bid for Paramount Global, Huw Edwards' guilty plea on indecent pictures charges, the passing of Nigerian icon Onyeka Onwenu, and Venice's new tourist regulations.

In entertainment news, Kevin Costner's 'Horizon: An American Saga' is set to premiere in Venice as part of the out-of-competition section on September 7. The first part premiered in Cannes earlier this year.

Apex Capital Trust has submitted a bid to acquire Paramount Global for up to $43 billion, though Reuters is withholding the story pending further investigation.

Former BBC presenter Huw Edwards has pleaded guilty to charges involving indecent pictures of children. Edwards was a renowned journalist and top news anchor at the BBC until his resignation in April.

The entertainment world mourns the loss of Onyeka Onwenu, a Nigerian singer and actress who passed away at 72. Nigerian President Bola Tinubu hailed her as a 'versatile and extremely gifted artiste.'

Venice has introduced new regulations to limit tourist groups to a maximum of 25 people and ban loudspeakers to ease pedestrian movement and protect local residents' peace.
