When you work, you're supposed to get paid. As simple as that sentence is, in the movie business, sometimes things happen that make being paid a stressful challenge. Usually, those hardships fall onto the lesser-known cast members and crew members who work long, tiresome hours to bring a production to an audience. The stars of a project work hard too, but they're usually paid, and most times don't have to worry about when their checks are coming. This is why it's imperative for those in higher positions to stand by their fellow cast and crew members, just like Bryan Cranston. The actor is starring in an indie film, Lone Wolf, that has had a few financial setbacks, and he's speaking out about the situation.
Cranston has spent decades building a resume full of credits that span all areas, including television, movies, music videos, theater, and more. His ability to be...

When Suge Knight sped away from Tam’s Burgers in Compton, California, on Jan. 29, 2015, he left two men lying on the asphalt behind him. He had just shifted gears and barreled over the pair with his two-ton Ford Raptor truck. One of the men, Terry Carter, would die from multiple blunt force injuries within the hour.
The other man, Cle “Bone” Sloan, was rushed to a hospital with two crushed ankles and a serious head laceration. Knight abandoned the truck and turned himself in for questioning at 3 a.m. the next day.

Nicknames are very important in the pro wrestling business. Most importantly, they are a part of the wrestlers’ identity, even though they are sometimes just catchy terms or phrases related to them. Monikers like “Stone Cold” or “The Rock” became a part of pop culture, and so are the wrestlers associated with them. For WWE superstar Cm Punk, these monikers have been his battle cries, opinions, and phrases to unite his fans.
Born as Phillip Jack Brooks, Cm Punk is a master of reinventing himself. Punk’s journey from his early days of backyard wrestling to his legendary WWE run can be seen in each of his nicknames. Let’s explore his most popular nicknames and what lies behind them.

Did Robert De Niro and Al Pacino switch parts in crime movies? ( Photo Credit – Wikimedia )
Well, here’s the kicker, According to Screen Rant, Robert De Niro and Al Pacino swapped roles in a completely different gangster flick! Yes, you heard that right. Just before The Godfather graced the big screen, De Niro replaced Pacino in another crime movie, talk about an alternate universe where history could’ve gone very differently.
Picture it, a world where Pacino never became Michael Corleone, or where De Niro’s star had risen a little earlier. It’s a bizarre little twist in cinematic history, and it almost makes you wonder how many great films we’ve missed out on because of one little Hollywood shuffle.
Trust us, if this swap hadn’t happened, the legacy of these two legendary actors, and The Godfather franchise itself, would look very different today.

Oscar-winning director Christopher Nolan’s upcoming swords-and-sandals fantasy epic The Odyssey boasts one of the most all-star casts of all time, and we now have a new look at two of the lead actors: Matt Damon and Tom Holland. Pictured in character on set, Damon sports a great, big, bushy beard and looks fighting fit as he films a scene in Favignana in southern Italy.
Damon, who will lead The Odyssey as Odysseus, the legendary Greek king of Ithaca, was seen filming alongside Euphoria and Spider-Man: No Way Home star Zendaya (via People), who is rumored to be playing the goddess Athena in Nolan’s highly anticipated adaptation of Homer’s ancient Greek epic poem.

The 39th Teddy Awards, the Berlin International Film Festival’s prestigious LGBTQ honors, celebrated both emerging talents and seasoned pioneers in queer cinema.
The best feature film accolade went to Lesbian Space Princess, directed by Leela Varghese and Emma Hough Hobbs. This animated comedy follows Princess Saira on an “inter-gay-lactic” mission to rescue her ex-girlfriend from the clutches of the “Straight White Maliens.”

Directed by Emma Hough Hobbs and Leela Varghese, their Berlin Panorama premiering “Lesbian Space Princess,” no playing in Annecy’s Contrechamp lineup, is not only the first film of its kind to be made in South Australia but also a testament to the power of independent filmmaking.
A fast-paced sci-fi animated comedy, “Lsp” features candy-colored aesthetics, upbeat musical numbers and grown-up comedy to tell the story of Princess Saira, an introverted space princess from the planet Clitopolis who embarks on an intergalactic mission to save her ex-girlfriend from the Straight White Maliens — voiced by the popular Australian comedy trio Auntie Donna.
Of their ambitious undertaking, Hough Hobbs, also the film’s lead animator, explained, “There aren’t many Australian animated features, especially in South Australia. Our is the first to be made [in Adelaide], and it’s a significant milestone for us.” The film’s production was a labor of love, with...

Now, a few things to mention: Lynch is one of the few directors whose work on both the big and small screen was equally inspired. At first, I was just going to include Lynch’s feature films in this poll, but then I realized there’s simply no way one could pay proper tribute to Lynch without mentioning the original Twin Peaks series, or Twin Peaks: The Return, which remains his final work of art.

While no one has yet been cast as the 80s music icon, Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner has previously expressed her desire to bring Boy George to life on the silver screen.
The casting idea was addressed by Boy George himself during an appearance on the Australian radio show Fitzy and Wippa back in 2019. Theres been some really interesting suggestions, he replied when asked who could play him in a potential biopic (via British Vogue). One of the most interesting suggestions was Sophie Turner.

This article contains spoilers for Inside Out 2.
Inside Out 2 explored how an adolescent Riley would deal with new emotions during puberty. Screenwriter Meg LeFauve confirmed Riley has teenage crushes but it was best not to focus on them as the central plot of the movie.
The overwhelming reception for Inside Out 2 confirms it's a necessary sequel to the 2015 original. The emotions that have so far appeared tease potential sequels and the debut of more newcomers like Love, Contempt, and Regret (among many others). The film's pacing reveals screenwriter Meg LeFauve's brevity in handling the plot, which largely focused on Riley's struggle to belong in a group of almost-grown-ups. LeFauve told IndieWire that they decided to focus on this arc and veered away from Riley's crushes. She said that would only divert from the message of the film and sidetrack the story.

Bowen Yang, a familiar face on Saturday Night Live since 2019, has showcased his comedic talents through a variety of characters, from impersonating figures like George Santos and Truman Capote to crafting original personas. He even explored the dynamics of a “Straight Male Friend” in a 2023 sketch with Travis Kelce. But on March 2nd, Yang took a surprising turn, portraying a heterosexual version of himself in the SNL short, Bowen’s Straight.
Bowen Yang and Sydney Sweeney on SNL
The sketch revolves around Sydney Sweeney, who develops a crush on Yang, only to discover a shocking truth: he’s secretly straight. According to him, playing gay is simply a career move, while his true “modus operandi” is charming women. He even flaunts his “straightness” by making out with both Gina Gershon and Sweeney.

Exclusive: Producer Kate Cohen (Jane Got a Gun) has tapped Oscar nominee Lesley Paterson (All Quiet on the Western Front) and Simon Marshall to script a feature adaptation of Viktor Frankl’s classic treatise, Man’s Search for Meaning. For Paterson’s husband and writing partner, Marshall, the project has taken on particular resonance of late, having just been diagnosed with late-stage pancreatic cancer.
Translated into 50 languages, with over 16 million copies sold, Frankl’s riveting account of his time in the Nazi concentration camps, and his exploration of the human will to find meaning in spite of unspeakable adversity, has offered solace and guidance to generations of readers since it was first published in 1946. At the heart of his work is the conviction that the primary human drive is not pleasure, as Freud maintained, but rather the pursuit of meaning.

Tupac Shakur's appearance in Straight Outta Compton is brief but impactful, with two actors portraying him: Marcc Rose and Darris Love. Marcc Rose, who plays Tupac on screen, closely resembles the rapper with his eyes, eyebrows, and posture, while Darris Love provides his vocals. Marcc Rose portrayed Tupac in another project, Unsolved: The Murders of Tupac and The Notorious B.I.G., but his performance was limited in showing the rapper's personality.
The celebrated rapper Tupac appears in one scene in Straight Outta Compton, but he's played by two actors. Straight Outta Compton is an underrated musical biopic that sadly didn't leave as much of a mark as maybe it should have. Released in 2015, the same year as Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Jurassic World, Inside Out, and many other celebrated movies, it was always going to be difficult for Straight Outta Compton to make waves. That's unfortunate because...

It’s been two years since masked assailants gunned down celebrated rapper Young Dolph, whose legal name was Adolph Thornton Jr., as he shopped near his boyhood home in South Memphis.
For two years, Dolph’s fiancée has raised their young son and daughter alone while shouldering her profound grief — and staying largely silent on the murder case that grew to four defendants.
Mia Jaye now believes her silence was “taken for granted” by law enforcement. Going forward, she wants assurances justice for Young Dolph — the 36-year-old musician and Pre...

Long Shot is a delightful romantic comedy-drama with a talented ensemble cast that includes Seth Rogen and Charlize Theron. One of the highlights of the film is the chemistry between Rogen and Theron, but the diverse supporting cast, including Andy Serkis and Bob Odenkirk, also shines. The film showcases the comedic charm of Rogen, the versatility of Theron, and the talent of O'Shea Jackson Jr., with cameos from Boyz II Men and Lil Yachty.
Long Shot is a delightful comedy with a cast that includes genre stalwarts like Seth Rogen and critically acclaimed superstars like Charlize Theron. Set to the backdrop of an American presidential campaign, the romantic comedy-drama finds Rogen playing a journalist who crosses paths with his former babysitter — only now the babysitter is the U.S. Secretary of State and aiming for a shot at the White House. Sparks fly as the unlikely duo starts working together,...

Shortly after actor Stephen Amell made headlines for calling the SAG-AFTRA strike “incredibly frustrating” and “myopic,” “Heels” showrunner Mike O’Malley called up his series’ star.
“We knew that [his comments] were going to distract from the hard work that the people in both the WGA, of which I’m a member, and SAG-AFTRA were doing,” O’Malley said in an interview with EW. “When I heard and I called him up, I said, ‘Stephen, man, we all got to stand together.’ He got it immediately.”
O’Malley went on to call the moment “unfortunate” and note that he “genuinely” thinks Amell “put his foot in his mouth.”
“He felt bad about it,” O’Malley said. “I think he was basically saying what a lot of people were saying, which was that they were frustrated that they couldn’t work. But I know where his heart is, and his heart is standing with his union,...

There's a reason athletes don't often host "Saturday Night Live," and recent Super Bowl champ Travis Kelce just proved why. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end took the stage at Studio 8H last night to make his hosting debut, and he brought the same enthusiasm that many professional athletes have brought to the late night sketch series before him, from Michael Jordan to Peyton Manning. However, though Kelce clearly has charisma, what he doesn't have are any of the other skills that make a good "SNL" host. That means that most of this new episode was a waste. Though there were sporadic laughs to be found, if it wasn't for the more reliable pieces of the "SNL" cast, this episode would have been a total dud.
So let's reluctantly dig into what the Travis Kelce-hosted episode of "Saturday Night Live" had to offer.
What Was The Best Sketch Of The Night?...
