The ACLU of Southern California’s annual Bill of Rights Awards on Sunday night honored Mark Ruffalo, “Will & Harper” stars Harper Steele and Will Ferrell, “The Sympathizer” author Viet Thanh Nguyen and sports legend Brittney Griner and her wife Cherelle Griner.

Taking place just days after the election, the evening took on a somber tone with presenters and honorees emphasizing how crucial the ACLU was and will be in legal battles protecting civil rights and fighting for social justice during a Trump administration. In an eerie coincidence, an SUV adorned with Trump flags and passengers shouting “we won” drove by the Beverly Hilton hotel on Wilshire Boulevard as guests arrived for the gala.

Griner, who spent 10 months in a Russian work camp before her release was secured by a prisoner swap negotiated by the Biden administration in 2022, praised the civil rights organization. “My wife and I have a lot of common with the ACLU,...

Aamir Khan says his next, Sitaare Zameen Par, is better than the classic (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Aamir Khan is a star who maintains an air of mystery around him and never shares too many details about his upcoming projects. After the release of his previous film, Laal Singh Chaddha, the actor has gone through a lengthy period of introspection, which failed to impress the critics and audience alike. The project was very close to him, and he spent a lengthy period making the film. When it failed, he contemplated retirement as an actor, only to be convinced by his children that he would not do so. His next film is Sitaare Zameen Par, a spiritual sequel to his 2007 film Taare Zameen Par.

Aamir Khan on what went wrong with Lal Singh Chaddha ( Photo Credit – Instagram )

Aamir Khan remade the Hollywood blockbuster Forrest Gump in Hindi. The film is called Lal Singh Chaddha. Kareena Kapoor Khan played the female lead, and Naag Chaitanya Akkineni was also in a particular role. However, the film failed at the box office, and Aamir decoded the reason behind its failure in a recent interview.

“When a film goes wrong, you try and understand what went wrong. When I sat down and thought about it, I felt like Forrest Gump, as a piece of writing, does not necessarily fall into the rules. The film does not follow the mainstream writing rules. The premise is the question which gives answers for you,” The iconic actor said.

“The story moves episodically. It is not streamlined in that sense. And your main plot gets over, and the film continues for 15-20 minutes afterward.

Will Salman Khan have a cameo in Baby John? ( Photo Credit – Instagram )

Fans of Salman Khan have a reason to be excited as they may see a glimpse of their favorite star in theatres in 2024 in the Varun Dhawan starrer Baby John. Salman Khan was last seen in Tiger 3 in 2023, and his fans have been waiting to see him on the big screen. He did appear for a blink-and-miss cameo in. Singham Again but his fans were left wanting more as the cameo failed to live up to the hype. Baby John will be released in theatres on Christmas and will see Varun in a never-seen-before mass-action avatar. The film is being presented by Atlee, who is riding high on the success of his previous movie, Jawan, and is directed by Kalees.

Here’s why Chris Hemsworth was almost fired by Marvel (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Picture this: you’re Chris Hemsworth and left out of Captain America: Civil War (2016) with no explanation. No big deal, right? Except Hemsworth thought he was getting fired by Marvel. “I was like, ‘What? Are we being fired?’” he admitted. The God of Thunder was Mia, while everyone else got their spotlight. Marvel wasn’t ditching him—they were just setting up something way better.

Instead of joining the Civil War drama, Thor got his movie Thor: Ragnarok (2017), which changed the game. This Thor was directed by Taika Waititi and was funny, bold, and way less severe than before. Hemsworth’s comedic timing? On fire. Result? One of the best MCU flicks ever.

Hemsworth nailed it, saying, “It turned out just perfect because we got to do a different kind of thing we wouldn’t have been able to do otherwise.

Brad Pitt took control of his iconic shirtless scene in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. (Photo Credit – Facebook)

Let’s be honest—Brad Pitt and shirtless scenes are a match made in Hollywood heaven. From Fight Club to Troy, the dude has turned taking his shirt off into an art form. But here’s the kicker: one of his most legendary shirtless moments almost got ruined by none other than Quentin Tarantino.

We’re talking about that unforgettable scene in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, where Brad’s Cliff Booth climbs on Rick Dalton’s roof and strips off his Champion T-shirt like it’s just another hot day in LA. The thing is, Tarantino had his ideas about how this moment should go down—and he almost screwed it up.

On a recent episode of Amy Schumer’s 3 Girls, 1 Keith podcast, Tarantino spilled the beans on how...

Angelina Jolie won her appeal to remove a private judge from her custody battle with Brad Pitt. (Photo Credit – Facebook)

In a wild twist, Angelina Jolie scored a big win when the California appeals court booted the private judge in her ongoing custody battle with Brad Pitt. The judge, John Ouderkirk, had ruled in May that Pitt would get joint custody of their five kids—but Jolie wasn’t having it. She appealed, and this time, the court agreed.

Why? The judge had some shady business connections with Pitt’s lawyers and didn’t disclose them. The court called it an “ethical breach” and said it could bias the judge. Translation: a fresh judge must restart the custody case from scratch. Ouch.

Jolie was mad. She thought she and the kids had been “denied a fair trial,” especially after Ouderkirk refused to let the kids testify. For Jolie, that was a dealbreaker.

Shahid Kapoor is in the best phase of his career right now with the success of films like Kabir Singh and Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya on the big screen and his web series Farzi on Prime Video. He is riding a wave of significant momentum and enjoying the success he deserves after a lengthy period of hard work in Bollywood, where he has carved a niche for himself by performing unconventional roles and showing his versatility.

From being a romantic hero in films like Jab We Met to intense roles in Kabir Singh and Jersey to highly unconventional and deeply layered characters like Kaminey and Haider, he has received plaudits for his performance as an actor par excellence. In May 2024, the star invested in a luxurious Rs. 58.6 crore property in Oberoi Realty’s elite development along with his wife,...

Arjun Kapoor is riding a wave of momentum after the massive success of Singham Again, where his portrayal of the antagonist impresses everyone and brings him back into the conversation of modern-day mainstream actors. He is now looking forward to his upcoming projects, including the 2005 comedy film No Entry sequel. The film starred Anil Kapoor, Fardeen Khan, Salman Khan, Bipasha Basu, Lara Dutta, and Celina Jaitley in lead roles and entertained audiences with slapstick humor. The film has stood the test of time, too, as it has excellent re-watch value, and over the last two years, it has become a cult film.

Venom 3’s box office performance and its potential impact on Sony’s next Spider-Man Universe movie, Kraven the Hunter(Photo Credit – Instagram/Facebook)

As Sony’s one more Marvel movie remains to grace our screens in 2024, the recent release of Venom: The Last Dance could be a significant indicator of how the studio’s next film fare at the box office. Since the release of Venom in 2018, Sony Spider-Man Universe had its ups and downs. While Venom had established quite a good fanbase, none of Sony’s other superhero films, like Madame Web and Morbius, failed to impress the fans. But Venom remains the one big win in the live-action universe so far.

As Venom 3 marks the end of Tom Hardy’s trilogy, Sony has one last chapter in 2024, Kraven the Hunter, starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson. While it’s tough to say if Kraven will deliver on the promise that keeps...

Mark Ruffalo has become synonymous with the Marvel superhero Hulk over the years. But unlike some of his predecessors, he doubted he’d ever get his own official Hulk film.

Why Mark Ruffalo felt a solo Hulk movie was unlikely Mark Ruffalo | Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic

Ruffalo has been playing Marvel’s Hulk since 2012’s The Avengers movie. But unlike Eric Bana and Edward Norton before him, Ruffalo’s monstrous counterpart has only been seen in superhero team-up films. In an interview with Empire (via Contact Music), Ruffalo asserted that he wasn’t against doing a Hulk solo feature. He even shared what he wanted to see in a potential Hulk sequel.

“Who knows where these things will go,” Ruffalo said. “But as Bruce is able to impress his will on the Hulk – going into The Hulk and being inside the Hulk when he’s raging – The Hulk’s will is...

Not all hope is lost for “Mare of Easttown” fans hoping for a second season, with creator Brad Ingelsby saying he’s “always open” to revisit the series under the right circumstances.

Ingelsby revealed Tuesdday he would “welcome the chance” to pick back up “Mare of Easttown” for another installment, but only if he and the team could craft a story that’s “as compelling as the first one.”

“It would be hard to jump back in with ‘Mare’ and compete with losing a son — that was always a thing that I struggled with with ‘Mare,’ was, how do you compete with that?'” Ingelsby said during HBO’s 2025 programming slate presentation in Los Angeles. “If there’s a way to come back to ‘Mare’ where she has something else to deal with that we feel equally compelling emotionally, and would be able to bring the viewer back in, I...

Mare of Easttown’s creator is returning to HBO… but he’s not bringing Kate Winslet with him this time.

Brad Ingelsby, who wrote and created the Emmy-winning Mare, is back with a new Pennsylvania-set crime drama, Task, airing next year on HBO and starring Mark Ruffalo as a veteran FBI agent leading a task force that investigates a heist gone wrong. But since Mare was so popular and acclaimed, why didn’t he just make a Season 2?

Martha Plimpton and Mireille Enos have been officially announced as part of the cast of Brad Ingelsby’s upcoming series at HBO, a followup to his hit Mare Of Easttown.

Plimpton’s casting was revealed in the “Coming To Max in 2025” trailer released Sunday night, which also unveiled Task as the title of the show (fka Untitled Task Force Project), headlined by Mark Ruffalo. (You can watch it below)

Based on an original idea by Ingelsby, Task is set in the working class suburbs outside of Philadelphia, an FBI agent heads a Task Force to put an end to a string of drug-house robberies led by an unsuspecting family man.

Martha Plimpton and Mireille Enos have joined the cast of “Task,” an upcoming HBO drama series starring Mark Ruffalo.

Set in the working class suburbs outside of Philadelphia, “Task” follows Tom (Ruffalo), an FBI agent leading a task force meant to tend to a string of drug-house robberies led by an unsuspecting family man (Tom Pelphrey).

Plimpton plays Kathleen McGinty, the FBI supervisory senior resident in charge who recruits Tom to lead the task force just as she learns that she is being forced to retire, while Enos plays Tom’s wife, Susan Brandis. The pair married young, which is the reason Tom left the priesthood.

Plimpton’s credits include films like “The Goonies” (1985), “The Mosquito Coast” (1986) and “Parenthood” (1989), as well as the 2010-2014 Fox sitcom “Raising Hope.” More recently, she has appeared in the 2021 film “Mass” and the HBO series “The Regime,” which aired earlier this year. She is...

HBO is rounding out the cast of its upcoming limited series Task.

The drama from Mare of Easttown creator Brad Ingelsby has added Martha Plimpton and Mireille Enos to its already large ensemble. Mark Ruffalo heads the cast as an FBI agent leading a task force investigating a string of drug-house robberies in the Philadelphia suburbs.

Plimpton’s presence in Task was revealed Sunday in a teaser for HBO and Max’s upcoming programming. She will play Kathleen McGinty, a career FBI agent who recruits Tom (Ruffalo) to head up the task force, just as she learns that she is being forced to retire. Enos will play Susan Brandis, Tom’s wife and the heart and soul of their family. She and Tom married young and is the reason he left the priesthood.

The show’s cast also includes Tom Pelphrey, Emilia Jones, Thuso Mbedu, Raúl Castillo, Jamie McShane, Sam Keeley,...

Martha Plimpton and Mireille Enos are the latest additions to HBO’s Task force.

The Raising Hope and Killing stars have been cast opposite Mark Ruffalo in Task, a limited series created by Mare of Easttown mastermind Brad Ingelsby. Premiering in 2025, the drama is “set in the working class suburbs outside of Philadelphia,” where “an FBI agent (played by Ruffalo) heads a Task Force to put an end to a string of drug-house robberies led by an unsuspecting family man,” according to the official logline.

It could be a while if we ever see another season of Mare of Easttown, assuming creator Brad Ingelsby finds the right kind of story to bring back Kate Winslet’s beloved character.

While promoting his upcoming show Task that takes place in the same Pennsylvania county that Mare was based, Ingelsby seemed to suggest that he couldn’t promise more of the crime drama miniseries that hit it big in 2021.

But he’s not completely closing the door, either.

“We’re always open to revisiting Mare. I would welcome the chance if we could craft the story,” Ingelsby told reporters as an HBO press conference Tuesday in Los Angeles. “Mare’s journey was so emotional and it was hard to come up with an emotional story. It’s hard to come up with one that could compete with losing a son and having to confront that. There are a...

For the last 50 decades, the identity of the Zodiac Killer has remained one of the most puzzling cold cases in American true-crime culture. With countless suspects emerging and fading into obscurity, the serial killer struck terror throughout Northern California’s Bay Area in the late 1960s, inspiring countless podcasts, books, and even the 2007 Zodiac film starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Mark Ruffalo, and Robert Downey Jr.

For those who are unaware of the cold killer, the Zodiac Killer is an unidentified serial murderer who terrorized Northern California. He is infamous for his cryptic letters, taunting authorities with symbols, ciphers, and claims of several unsolved murders. The Zodiac Killer also claimed to have killed 37 people, but only five murders and two attempted murders have been linked to him. Despite extensive investigations, the Zodiac Killer’s identity remains a mystery, except, for Arthur Leigh Allen, a former elementary school teacher and convicted sex offender,...

Amitabh Bachchan’s letter to Nimrat Kaur goes viral ( Photo Credit – Instagram )

For the past few months, social media has been rife with rumors about Abhishek Bachchan’s alleged affair with Nimrat Kaur. Speculations suggest that the actors’ closeness led to Abhishek’s separation from Aishwarya Rai. Amid the reports, a handwritten note sent by Amitabh Bachchan to Nimrat Kaur has gone viral online. Big B sent the letter to the actress two years ago, appreciating her performance in Dasvi, where she worked opposite Abhishek.

Nimrat had posted a picture of the letter herself on social media in 2022, following the release of Dasvi. In the note, Mr. Bachchan praised her for her exceptional acting in the movie. “We have hardly any interactions or meetings,” the megastar wrote.

Bollywood’s top actor, Aamir Khan, is set to join forces with acclaimed director Lokesh Kanagaraj. The prominent production house Mythri Movie Makers will produce the film. Following the underwhelming performance of Laal Singh Chaddha, Aamir Khan wants to return to success. Even the fans are waiting for him to blockbuster.

Behind-the-scenes facts about Titanic—from secret movie titles to unexpected casting choices for Jack and Rose ( Photo Credit – Prime Video )

It’s been 20 years since Titanic made us cry oceans of tears and gave us the ultimate love story. Jack and Rose—Leo and Kate—became the iconic duo of a generation. But with Titanic 2 now on the horizon, we’re diving back into some mind-blowing facts about the Og movie. Whether you’re all about that door debate or still living for Leo’s underwater somersaults, these juicy tidbits are ones you have to know. So grab your lifejacket because we’re going back to the ship!

1. The Movie Was Called Planet Ice During Production

You heard that right—Titanic wasn’t always the legendary name we know today. As his sneaky genius, James Cameron used a decoy title—Planet Ice—while filming to throw off anyone sniffing around for details.

Exclusive: Remember when geeky tween Jenna Rink was magically transformed into glamorous Jennifer Garner in the classic rom-com 13 Going on 30? That was two decades ago. Now that role’s being played by West End star Lucie Jones in a stage musical adapted from the beloved 2004 movie.

The show is headed for an out-of-town-tryout at the Manchester Opera House, where it will run for a limited season from September 21, 2025.

Just this past April, Garner joined fellow stars from the film — Mark Ruffalo, who played Matt Flamhaff, the boy next door who Jenna doesn’t realize holds a candle for her, and Judy Greer as Lucy Wyman, once her childhood nemesis and now an editing colleague at the fictional Poise magazine — for a 20th anniversary reunion on Zoom that spread far and wide on social media.

In the unforgettable finale of Avengers: Endgame, we saw the iconic departures of Iron Man and Black Widow—two of the original Avengers who gave everything for the greater good. But what if their sacrifices were just the tip of the iceberg? What if Chris Evans, Jeremy Renner, Chris Hemsworth, and Mark Ruffalo had also taken their final bows alongside Robert Downey Jr. and Scarlett Johansson?

Did Mark Ruffalo appreciate Irrfan Khan’s work? (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Here’s a cool throwback moment you might’ve missed: Back in 2010 when Slumdog Millionaire took the world by storm, Irrfan Khan found himself dining at the same New York restaurant as no other than Avengers star Mark Ruffalo. Irrfan, a massive fan of the Hulk actor, was secretly hoping for a quick chat, but as luck would have it, nothing happened. That was until the final moments of the night when Mark spotted him, walked over, and dropped a bomb: “Hey man, I love your work.” Instant Hollywood magic.

This epic moment comes from Irrfan Khan: The Man, The Dreamer, The Star, a biography by Aseem Chhabra. It’s one of those perfect anecdotes that perfectly captures Irrfan’s global reach—he was known everywhere, even by the biggest names in Hollywood. The scene unfolded like this: Irrfan...

On Sunday night, during the finale of “The Penguin,” Max released one of those biannual teasers previewing the service’s upcoming programming that serves as a periodic reminder that HBO is the best in the business. Max’s 2025 is packed with a lot of exciting new and returning shows, and the spot shows off new footage from many of them, from the prequel series “It: Welcome to Derry” to Emmy-winner “Hacks” Season 4.

Among the returning series previewed in the spot, there are first looks at “Hacks” Season 4, featuring Deborah (Jean Smart) getting in Ava’s (Hannah Einbinder) face and sarcastically calling her a “big, brave girl,” to which Ava coolly replies “I guess I am;” “The White Lotus” Season 3, which features Walton Goggins admiring a huge gold Buddha statue and the return of Natasha Rothwell’s Season 1 character Belinda; and “The Righteous Gemstones” Season 4, which features John Goodman with a long,...

In einem brandneuen Teaser blickt HBO/Max auf die Jahreshighlights 2025. Darunter: „White Lotus“, Staffel 3, die in Thailand spielt (u.a. mit Christian Friedel!), und das „Es“-Prequel „Welcome to Derry“ der Muschietti-Geschwister.

Der Streamingdienst Max und HBO zeigen erste – wenn auch sehr kurze – Einblicke in die Jahreshighlights 2025. Dazu zählt definitiv die dritte Staffel der HBO-Serie „White Lotus“, die dieses Mal in Thailand spielt – u.a. gehören Christian Friedel, Michelle Monaghan, Carrie Coon, Natasha Rothwell oder Parker Posey zum illustren Cast. Aber auch die „Es“-Prequel-Serie „Welcome to Derry“ von den Muschietti-Geschwistern Andy und Barbara. Ein weiteres Highlight ist die neue Staffel „The Last of Us“ mit Pedro Pascal und Bella Ramsey. Die Videospielverfilmung sorgte für hohe Einschaltquoten bei HBO in den USA und stand auf allen erdenklichen TV-Awardslisten mehrfach (und hat natürlich auch Preise gewonnen).

Mark Ruffalo, Will Ferrell, Harper Steele, Viet Thanh Nguyen, and Brittney and Cherelle Griner were all honored at the ACLU of Southern California’s Bill of Rights Awards on Sunday, in a night that focused heavily on Donald Trump’s election win and the future fight for civil rights.

Ruffalo, who campaigned heavily for Kamala Harris and is among Hollywood’s most outspoken activists, took the stage at the Beverly Hilton and admitted to the crowd, “We got our asses kicked. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, but sometimes you have to spend a little time in bed before it happens. It was hard to come here, honestly.”

“The fact that we’re here says a great deal about what we all care about in this life, and I want to appreciate you all for your values and the grief and the fear that you most acutely may be feeling as well,...

The wait will soon be over for HBO’s much-anticipated third installment of its hit dark comedy The White Lotus and It prequel series Welcome to Derry, based on Stephen King’s seminal novel.

First looks for both projects were teased in the network and streamer Max’s trailer for what’s in store in 2025. In addition to the aforementioned series, audiences can expect new seasons for The Righteous Gemstones, The Last of Us, And Just Like That, The Rehearsal, Hacks, The Gilded Age and Peacemaker. There was also a glimpse into Rachel Sennott’s as-yet untitled project, about a co-dependent friend group akin to Lena Dunham’s hit Girls, starring, written and executive produced by the Bottoms starlet.

Cate Blanchett became a great addition to the MCU despite starring in only one film. Playing Hela, the Goddess of Death, Blanchett became the ultimate threat and gave all the seriousness to the otherwise hilarious Thor: Ragnarok. Taika Waititi’s film was regarded as a fresh addition akin to Guardians of the Galaxy to the franchise at that point.

One of the highlights and traditions of the MCU is their bloopers and gag reels which show the main stars of the films at their goofiest. From funny dances to messing up lines, the bloopers humanize the superheroes to an amazing level. One blooper from Thor: Ragnarok showed Blanchett smacking Chris Hemsworth a bit too hard while filming an action scene.

David Robert Mitchell’s It Follows is one of those horror gems that will creep under your skin, so stay there. The story follows a monstrous curse passed along through intimate encounters. It Follows is somewhat similar to The Thing but with an eerie. What makes It Follows incredibly haunting is its open-ended finale. Like Carpenter’s classic, the ending doesn’t tell the viewers if the nightmare is over. Is the creature gone or lurking somewhere, waiting for the next movie? Of course, the suspense is killing the audience as it has left you guessing long after the credits roll.

Stranger Things almost recast Millie Bobby Brown’s Eleven? (Photo Credit – Facebook)

Okay, picture this: Stranger Things without Millie Bobby Brown as Eleven. No buzzcut, no crazy powerful stare. Wild, right? But it almost happened. In an interview with Allure, the now-18-year-old actress spilled the tea on a brutal audition that nearly ended her career before it started.

At just 10 years old, Brown faced a casting director who told her she was “too mature” for the industry. Ouch. “I always knew I was mature, but being told it wasn’t good? It was so hurtful,” she shared. A blow like that could’ve crushed anyone’s dream at that age. And Millie? She was this close to quitting.

But wait—plot twist! Her parents didn’t have it. Instead of letting her give up, they packed up their lives and moved from England to LA, encouraging her to take one last shot.

Was The Rock not initially cast in Fast & Furious? (Photo Credit – Facebook)

Did you ever wonder what Fast & Furious might’ve looked like without The Rock? Neither did we… until Vin Diesel dropped this wild nugget during a 2017 Facebook Q&a. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson wasn’t always meant to be the bulldozer of justice, Luke Hobbs. Nope, the role was written for Tommy Lee Jones! Diesel spilled the tea: “There was a girl named Jen (maybe Jan?) Kelly who said, ‘I would love to see you guys work together on-screen.’ So, we initially gave a role written for Tommy Lee Jones, but we gave it to Dwayne, and he shined in it.”

So, let’s rewind. Tommy Lee Jones, the action movie vet known for The Fugitive and Under Siege, was supposed to be the big bad in the Fast & Furious universe. Instead, they handed that part over to Johnson,...

Here’s why Twilight almost lost Robert Pattison (Photo Credit – Facebook)

Imagine if Robert Pattinson’s portrayal of Edward Cullen in Twilight never happened. A world without his brooding vampire? That almost became a reality. During a recent chat with GQ, Pattinson spoke about nearly getting fired from the film for taking the “emo vampire” vibe too seriously.

When he first took on the role, Pattinson was 21 and determined to make Edward as “arty” as possible. He wanted to inject some deep, emotional passion into the character, making him as tortured and mysterious as any good vampire should be. But, as he recalled, the studio wasn’t exactly on the same page. “I think I wanted to make it as arty as possible,” he asserted, “but there was this tension because the studio was a little scared to make it too emo.”

Things come to a head during one scene...

Here’s the truth about Jack Nicholson’s role in The Shining(Photo Credit – YouTube)

Let’s drop some truth bombs: Jack Nicholson didn’t just act unhinged in The Shining—he became the madness. That iconic door scene? The one where Jack hacks his way into the bathroom, screaming, “Here’s Johnny!” wasn’t just some over-the-top acting. Oh no. Word on the street? Nicholson was once a volunteer firefighter. So when it came to destroying that door, he wasn’t acting like a maniac—he was tearing through it faster than the crew could replace it. They had to use an actual door, not a prop because Jack was hacking through them like it was nothing. Too good, right?

The Shining, Kubrick’s 1980 masterpiece, is pure nightmare fuel. Jack Nicholson’s Jack Torrance takes a winter gig at the Overlook Hotel, but it’s not all hot cocoa and snowball fights.

Here’s the truth about why Dwayne Johnson isn’t in the MCU (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Marvel? It’s a match so obvious, but it’s almost surprising that it hasn’t happened. With Marvel taking Hollywood by storm and Johnson towering over the industry literally and figuratively, you’d think they’d cross paths. But here we are, wondering why the two most significant entertainment forces never joined. And yes, there are some solid reasons why.

First, let’s talk allegiance. While Marvel has the Avengers, Johnson has long aligned with their comic rival, DC. In 2014, he was cast as Black Adam, a major (and criminal) antihero in DC’s Shazam!

Since Iron Man hit theaters in 2008, we’ve whispered about what could’ve been if Tom Cruise had taken the role. While Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark’s now iconic, for years, Cruise was rumored to be in the running. So, why did he walk away? The answer comes down to money—pure and simple.

Back in the day, before the MCU was a billion-dollar empire, it was a gamble. Comic book movies weren’t the guaranteed blockbusters they are now, and Iron Man was no exception. As revealed in MCU: The Reign of Marvel Studios, a new book by Joanna Robinson, Dave Gonzales, and Gavin Edwards, Cruise’s “asking fee at the time was more than even a profitable studio like Fox was willing to risk on an untested superhero property.”

At the time, Cruise was 34 and...

Jennifer Lawrence may be a Hollywood heavyweight today, but even she’s haunted by a role that slipped through her fingers: Alice in Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland. During an interview on the Howard Stern Show, the Red Sparrow actress confessed that this lost opportunity devastated her.

While we know Lawrence today as a go-to star for bold roles, her early career was littered with auditions—some successful, some not so much. And this one? Losing out on Alice in Wonderland stung. She shared that, at the time, she and fellow actress Emma Stone were often up for the same parts, with this one hitting particularly hard. “Emma Stone and I had this conversation once, ’cause we used to always audition for the same thing…...

Since the movie was announced, the buzz has been sky-high.

Chris Hemsworth and Halle Berry are spending the day on set of their new crime thriller.

The co-stars shared a laugh as they took a quick break in between filming scenes for their upcoming movie Crime 101 on Thursday (November 7) in Los Angeles.

Mark Ruffalo was also seen hanging out on set before he started filming his own scenes.

Crime 101 is an adaptation of Don Winslow‘s short story of the same name and reportedly is a follow up to American Animals.

While plot details for the movie are currently being kept under wraps, the original short story “follows high-level jewel thefts taking place up and down the Pacific Coast that police have linked to Colombian cartels. Detective Lou Lubesnick has other ideas and he zeroes in on one perp, a thief looking for a final score.”

Halle Berry, Mark Ruffalo and Barry Keoghan are also attached to star in the film,...

Do You Know Euphoria Co-stars Zendaya And Jacob Elordi Secretly Dated In Real Life? (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Oh, the Euphoria magic wasn’t just on-screen. Zendaya and Jacob Elordi had been playing it cool for months before the truth about their off-screen relationship came to light. February rolled around, and the paparazzi caught the duo kissing on the streets of New York City. No more dodging rumors, no more side-eyeing the gossip. These two were more than just friends.

For the unversed, the Kissing Booth actor and Challengers star’s off-screen romance wasn’t just a random fling. According to an insider, it all started long after Euphoria’s first season wrapped. “Jacob and Zendaya have been seeing each other for months now,” the source told E!. “They started as close friends, but it became romantic after their show ended.” Their relationship was low-key, but the spark was real, and...

Did Mark Ruffalo refuse to star in a solo Hulk movie? (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Mark Ruffalo just smash-ed our hopes of ever seeing a solo Hulk movie. And it’s not because Marvel doesn’t love him—oh, they do. It’s because it’s just too damn expensive. Yep, the reason we won’t see Bruce Banner go full green for a solo adventure anytime soon is all about the price tag. In an interview with GQ, Ruffalo admitted, “I’d love to do a standalone Hulk, I just don’t think that’s ever going to happen.” Why? Well, here’s where it gets real: “It’s very expensive if you did a whole movie, which is why they use the Hulk so sparingly. I priced myself out!” Ouch. Even Hulk’s massive CGI budget is a tough pill to swallow, especially with Marvel’s wallet these days.

Mickey 17 now hits theaters on April 18, 2025, moving from its January 31 date.

Robert Pattinson stars alongside Toni Collette, Steven Yeun, Mark Ruffalo and Naomi Ackie in Mickey 17, a hybrid science fiction comedy movie based on a 2022 novel.

The trailer indicates Pattinson will be turning in a memorable performance with multiple interations of his character to juggle. Not to mention that accent. Watch below.

Captain America: Brave New World is one of the most exciting upcoming MCU movies. It will feature Sam Wilson becoming Captain America in his first solo film and facing off against Thaddeus Ross’ Red Hulk.

One of the key things about the movie’s production is that it had to do a lot of extra reshoots, spending a lot of time and money on them.

Some earlier reports mentioned that the movie didn’t get a good reaction from test audiences. The reasons given were weak action, a boring story, unclear political messages, and poor chemistry between Anthony Mackie and his romantic interest.

Later reports said that the reshoots added $100 million to the movie’s budget, suggesting they were a major part of the production.

After the first trailer was released, fans also felt that the movie seemed more like a Hulk film than a Captain America movie, especially with the villains confirmed to appear.

Yesterday was a difficult day. A disappointing day. A day where millions of people's dreams were crushed, replaced by a mounting sense of dread and an overwhelming urge to ask, simply, "Why? Why? Why?!" After months of nervous anticipation, we had dared to believe it was finally happening, only to have hope snatched at the last second by an inexplicable twist of fate. We are of course referring to the profoundly dismaying announcement last night that Bong Joon Ho's Robert Pattinson starring sci-fi joint Mickey 17 has been delayed yet again. (What else could we have been talking about?)

Per Deadline's reporting, director Bong's take on Edward Ashton's book Mickey7 has been bumped from its planned 31 January, 2025 release date and is now slated to launch in cinemas worldwide on 18 April, where it will occupy all available IMAX screens. This is now the movie's second delay, with the Parasite...
