The ending to the classic movie Thelma & Louise is one of the most iconic endings of all-time. The movie is from 1991 so I hope you don’t get upset if I spoil the ending. The two get into a car chase and instead of giving themselves up or turning themselves in, they take that car chase right over a cliff.
Now, life is imitating art as a man in a car chase tried to pull a Thelma & Louise! However, it didn’t end up going the same way it played out in the movie. Here’s how it unfolded.
What Happened When A Guy In A Car Chase Tried To Pull A ‘Thelma & Louise?’
According to Long Island News 12, a suspect who had a warrant out for his arrest led police on a chase that lasted over 30 minutes and stretched from Peconic to Riverhead and back east before going over a cliff. Unlike the movie, he survived the crash to the bottom of the cliff. Officers were able to remove him, essentially uninjured, from the vehicle and place him under arrest.
The car landed in four feet of water at the bottom of the 50-foot high cliff. He’s going to be in even more trouble because News 12 reports that the car wasn’t his–it was a rental from Florida. Hopefully he paid for the insurance. The man has since been identified as 56-year-old Roger Foster of The Villages in Florida.
Inside Edition reports the original warrant was for slashing his ex-wife’s tire on her vehicle. After he was apprehended, Foster was arrested and charged with second-degree criminal contempt, third-degree criminal mischief, numerous traffic law violations, unlawful fleeing, and two outstanding arrest warrants, per Inside Edition.

The Biggest Blockbusters Of 2024
It was hard to pick only 5 of the most anticipated movies of 2024. Personally, I had to put some biases aside to find the 5 that most people are looking forward to. Honestly, not all of these movies excite me. I’m hard to please! However, I’m confident that most of us are eagerly anticipating most of these movies, and might already have some dates circled on the calendar.
Of course, by only picking 5 movies, I’m leaving some great ones off the list. So, let’s consider these to be Honorable Mentions. These are some of the movies I, personally, can’t wait to see this year in theatres.
Honorable Mentions: Best Of The Rest
First, there’s Ballerina starring Ana de Armas. If you know me, you know I love Ana de Armas. She can truly do no wrong. Anything I’ve seen her in, she’s completely stolen the show. I was disappointed by her lack of major screen time in No Time To Die, I thought she deserved to be the Bond Girl. Thankfully, she’ll have her chance for redemption in Ballerina. It’s Lionsgate’s first spinoff to the John Wick series, and is set between the third and fourth films. Keanu Reeves is set to make an appearance in the movie, per Men’s Health. The movie hits theatres June 7th.
Additionally, there’s The Watchers, which is the feature directorial debut of Ishana Night Shyamalan, daughter of M. Night. That comes out June 7th, as well. There’s also Inside Out 2 (June 14), The Bikeriders with Austin Butler and Tom Hardy (June 21), A Quiet Place: Day 1 (June 28), Kevin Costner’s Horizon: An American Saga (June 28), and more! Of course, we’re also getting Beetlejuice 2 (September 6) and the new Joker movie (October 4). So, lots to look forward to this year!
So, which 5 do I think will be huge draws in the box office? Let’s dive in!

Cort Freeman was born and raised in Metro Detroit. He was named Clarkston High School 2009 Class Clown 13 years after graduating. Totally normal thing to happen. That’s thanks to his time spent as an Intern at Comedy Central and Social Media Correspondent for The Colbert Report. Cort has done comedy across the country, both standing up and sitting down. When he’s not trying to make you laugh on-air and online, he’s probably at home enjoying his favorite shows like Seinfeld, South Park, and The Office. He’s also totally uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person. Cort enjoys writing about comedy, food, sports, and entertainment. So, basically anything and everything.
