Stellar Performances By Riz Ahmed And Lily James (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Riz Ahmed steps into Relay with the quiet presence he is known for. He plays Tom, a professional fixer who manages corporate payoffs like he is moving pieces on a chessboard. His tight and deliberate performance peels back into something more personal as the story unfolds. Lily James appears as Sarah, a woman who might need his services or have other motives entirely. Their scenes together do not shout for attention but keep a steady grip on it.

Ahmed’s recent work has built a clear path to this. From the Sound of Metal to Encounter and Nightcrawler, he...

Everything About Empire Star Jussie Smollett(Photo Credit –Instagram)

American actor-singer Jussie Smollett, who originally rose to prominence for his role on Empire, where he played Jamal Lyon, became a lightning rod for controversy in 2019, when he was accused of faking a hate crime attack on himself.

Given his status as a black and gay actor, the alleged assault, which Smollett reported on January 29, 2019, resulted in an outpouring of sympathy towards him, with Empire producers Fox Entertainment releasing a statement that read (per Variety):

“We send our love to Jussie, who is resilient and strong, and we will work with law enforcement to bring these perpetrators to justice. The entire studio,...

Hugh Jackman’s Marvel Co-Star Felt Sorry For The Actor ( Photo Credit – Instagram )

Hugh Jackman’s Marvel co-star Anna Paquin once recalled feeling sorry for the actor after watching him being “put through the wringer” for X-Men.

Anna Paquin starred as Rogue in the very first 2000 Marvel Film X-Men, in which Hugh Jackman portrayed the clawed mutant Wolverine. This was Hugh Jackman’s first big blockbuster, which cemented his Hollywood stardom.

Meanwhile, Anna Paquin won Best Supporting Actress at the 1993 Academy Awards for her role in Pianao when she was 11 years old. During a 2021 appearance on SiriusXM’s The Jess Cagle Show, the Academy Award-winner opened up about her friendship with Hugh Jackman,...

Netflix has released a new murder mystery, and it has already made a strong mark with a near-perfect score on Rotten Tomatoes. The streamer, known for its vast catalog of originals, continues to prove that its whodunits can stand beside its biggest action and horror hits. Over the years, titles like Glass Onion and the Adam Sandler-led Murder Mystery films have become familiar names in this space, and now another entry has joined the lineup.

Was La La Land based on Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone? ( Photo Credit – Instagram )

Despite having parted ways years ago, fans of the once-golden Hollywood couple still hold on to memories of Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone’s relationship. Last year, while promoting his project, We Live in Time, co-starring Florence Pugh, Garfield finally spoken up about his personal life, offering insights into the lessons the industry taught him.

One particular subject took the actor back to 2016, when his relationship with Stone, his co-star in The Amazing Spider-Man, was the subject of immense media attention and speculation. Garfield, known for being protective of his privacy, spoke with a rare openness—albeit subtly and indirectly.

Studiocanal’s The Life Of Chuck leads new releases in UK and Ireland cinemas this weekend as Ari Aster’s Eddington also launches.

Mike Flanagan directs his latest Stephen King adaptation with The Life Of Chuck, which hits 622 venues after previewing from Wednesday (August 20). Tom Hiddleston, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Karen Gillan and Mark Hamill are among the cast of this life-affirming tale split into three genre-bending chapters. The film won the people’s choice award at Toronto Film Festival in 2024 and closed SXSW London earlier this summer.

Flanagan is best known for Netflix miniseries The Haunting Of Hill and The Haunting Of Bly Manor...

In Ari Aster’s latest provocative, mind-boggling movie, the internet is the real enemy amongst all the chaos. Some thoughts on Eddington:

Warning! Heavy spoilers for Eddington and some key spoilers for Beau Is Afraid, Hereditary and Midsommar.

Ari Aster has always been interested in cults. Whether it’s the naked worshippers of Paimon in Hereditary, the people of Hårga (also often naked) in Midsommar or even the manipulation committed by Beau’s mother in Beau Is Afraid, Aster has more or less traumatised his audiences with the loss of individuality under bigger influences.

His latest, Eddington, is no different. Sure, there are no penis monsters or old people jumping off cliffs to their deaths,...

When Emma Stone stepped into the spotlight as the title character in Disney’s 2021 live-action film Cruella, it marked a daring new chapter in her career. Known for her versatility in films like La La Land and The Favourite, the Oscar-winning actress had never tackled a character quite like this.

Taking on one of Hollywood’s most notoriously wicked villains, Stone embraced the challenge of reimagining a woman audiences had long loved to hate.

Despite the ongoing effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on theaters, Cruella defied the odds. It became a surprise box office hit, winning over fans with its bold visuals, punk-rock spirit, and...

Margaret Qualley's new mystery crime movie receives an underwhelming Rotten Tomatoes score ahead of release. The star made her acting debut in 2013's Palo Alto and gained traction by starring in HBO's The Leftovers. In 2019, she appeared in Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, alongside Sydney Sweeney, Austin Butler, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Brad Pitt.

After starring alongside Emma Stone in 2023's Poor Things, Qualley led the 2024 horror movie, The Substance, which received five Oscar nominations. The movie further pushed into global recognition. She can recently be seen in Adam Sandler's Netflix comedy, Happy Gilmore 2, which broke an opening weekend streaming record.

She's scheduled to...

Austin Butler opened up about briefly losing his vision while making his 2024 crime movie. The Elvis actor came into the public eye after starring asthe King of Rock and Roll in Baz Luhrmann's biopic. The 2022 movie was nominated for eight Academy Awards and earned Butler his first Oscar nomination.

Despite not winning, the movie was regarded as Butler's true breakout. Following Elvis, Butler has been involved in several crucial Hollywood productions. He joined Denis Villeneuve's Dune universe in Dune: Part Two as Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen and starred alongside some of the hottest names in the industry.

Recently, he could have been spotted among the star-studded cast of A24's Eddington,...

Jennifer Lawrence is stepping out for an early dinner.

The 35-year-old Hunger Games actress and husband Cooke Maroney headed to a restaurant for a bite to eat on Tuesday evening (August 19) in New York City.

For their outing, Jennifer wore a black jacket over a white T-shirt and black skirt paired with sunglasses and black flats while the 41-year-old art gallery director sported an all black outfit.

Earlier this year, Jennifer and Cooke welcomed their second child together. She gave birth to their first child, son Cy, in February 2022. While very few details about baby No. 2 have been made public, Jennifer seemingly revealed the initial of the baby’s name!

Exclusive: Here’s a big one that has just come together at Focus Features and Amblin: Till and Clemency filmmaker Chinonye Chukwu will direct and co-adapt with Pulitzer Prize winner Tony Kushner Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman with Oscar nominee Jeffrey Wright and Oscar winner Octavia Spencer starring.

Wright will play the legendary role of Willy Loman while Spencer will portray his Linda Loman.

Chukwu Joshua Kissi

The 1949 Pulitzer Prize winning two-act play first premiered on Broadway in February 1949 and ran for 742 performances. The play follows aging traveling salesman Willy Loman who tries to fix his life with the family he always put down as he put work first. The play, which won the 1949 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and Tony Award for Best Play, focuses on themes of infidelity, truth and the American Dream. There have been myriad adaptations for TV with Dustin Hoffman, Warren Mitchell, Brian Dennehy playing Willy Loman.

As 2025 nears the home stretch, Focus Features is planning to close out the year with some big releases. This final run of films for the year will kick off with Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale on September 12, followed by four more star-studded features that are shaping up as can't-miss events for cinephiles. To encourage more theatergoers to see these titles on the big screen, the distributor is ready to give back to viewers based on how many of the films they catch for themselves. Collider can exclusively unveil the new Ultimate Focus Features Experience Sweepstakes, which launches today as a way for AMC Stubs members to earn credits at the...

2020 was a hell of a year. It has been both five years and several lifetimes since the Covid-19 pandemic shut down the world, and it remains arguably, a collective trauma we as a species have yet to process. There have been modest attempts at trying to grapple cinematically with this epochal event, but few have grabbed the subject by its greasy horns quite as fearlessly as Ari Aster does with Eddington.

Aster’s fourth feature is yet another different tack for the filmmaker: less terrifying than the overt horrors of Hereditary and Midsommar; less inaccessibly weird than the picaresque odyssey of Beau Is Afraid. Instead it’s a heightened but recognisably real comedic satire set during the doldrums of the initial coronavirus outbreak, amid the divisions and conflicts that it sparked, and the pre-existing social and cultural fault lines that it laid bare.

Nobody is making political and cultural satire with this much insight.

Warner Bros.’ “Weapons” held the No. 1 position at the U.K. and Ireland box office for a second weekend, adding £1.5 million ($2.1 million) and bringing its total to £6.2 million ($8.4 million), according to Comscore.

Sony Pictures launched Celine Song’s romantic drama “Materialists,” starring Dakota Johnson, Chris Evans and Pedro Pascal, straight into second place with $1.7 million. Indian release “Coolie,” with superstar Rajinikanth leading a galaxy of pan-India stars, distributed by Lights On Entertainment, followed closely at No. 3 with $1.27 million.

Disney’s body-swap comedy “Freakier Friday” dropped to No. 4 in its sophomore frame, grossing $1.24 million for a running total of $5.4 million. Rounding out the top five was Disney’s Marvel film “The Fantastic Four: First Steps,” which earned $930,095 and now stands at $28.1 million after four weeks on release.

Outside the top five, Universal’s “The Bad Guys 2” was at No. 6 with $733,648, lifting its cume to $11.9 million. Paramount’s “The Naked Gun...

Top 5 Films Of Ryan Gosling From La La Land To Half Nelson, See Full List Here! (Photo Credit –IMDb)

Ryan Gosling has established himself as one of the most versatile actors in Hollywood who has done notable films across genres. He gained massive popularity with his movie The Notebook and did a fantastic job as Ken in Barbie. Ryan received a lot of applause for his role in the Greta Gerwig directorial, and he showed off his vocal skills in the movie, which is just as remarkable as his acting talent.

Gosling started his career as a child actor and appeared on Disney Channel’s The Mickey Mouse Club. He has been nominated for the Oscars twice for his roles in La La Land and Half Nelson, but he has eluded them both times. Today, we bring you the actor’s five films to celebrate his work.

Ryan Gosling‘s...

Tom Holland’s Spider-Man 4 will indeed be a dark tale. The world has forgotten Peter Parker, and he is without friends and his Aunt May. Grieving and alone, Peter Parker will also be joined by Jon Bernthal’s Punisher in the upcoming movie (and possibly Venom?).

This will add a vengeance storyline to Peter Parker, who is already angry at the world for not remembering him. Well, to say that Spider-Man 4 would be a depressing watch would be an understatement. However, it still won’t be able to compete with Andrew Garfield’s 11-year-old masterpiece of a movie that traumatized a generation.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2, which starred Garfield in the lead role of Peter Parker, aka Spider-Man, was released in 2014, and it is…the most depressing Spider-Man movie to date.

Spider-Man 4 Cannot Possibly Be More Depressing Than The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy...

Emma Watson Explained Why She Missed Out on La La Land (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Emma Watson revealed the truth about why she missed out on the role of a lifetime in La La Land—and it all comes down to timing. While she was once rumored to star opposite Miles Teller in Damien Chazelle’s hit musical, things took a turn, and Emma Stone ended up dancing into the role of Mia instead. So, what happened?

Beauty And The Beast Over La La Land

In an interview with SiriusXM’s Town Hall, via Vanity Fair, Watson explained why she had to pass on La La Land. She was already locked into another significant role—playing Belle in Disney’s live-action Beauty and the Beast. “It’s one of these frustrating things where names get attached to projects very early,” Watson explained, “but nothing’s set in stone.” The problem? She couldn’t juggle both roles.

Emma Stone is opening up about an embarrassing moment from her past that involves Angelina Jolie!

This isn’t the first time that Emma is telling this story, so you might already know about it.

Emma was seated at the same table as Angelina at the 2011 Golden Globes, when they were both nominated for Best Performance in a Motion Picture in a Musical or Comedy. Emma was nominated for her work in Easy A and Angelina was up for her work in The Tourist.

Emma‘s date to the show was her mom Krista and she’ll never forget what her mom said to Angelina.

“That was a really, really fun night because I brought my mom, and we sat next to Angelina Jolie, and she asked Angelina Jolie if she had any kids,” Emma said in a new Vogue video.

Emma Stone first played Gwen Stacy in 2012's The Amazing Spider-Man, and reprised the role two years later in The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Sony Pictures pulled the plug on the franchise after that sequel, scrapping plans for two more movies and Sinister Six. Spidey then swung into the MCU, with Tom Holland playing Peter Parker in Captain America: Civil War.

Despite Gwen's death in the second movie, the plan had been for her to be resurrected in The Amazing Spider-Man 3. Fortunately, that never happened.

During a recent interview breaking down Stone's iconic fashion looks over the years, the actor reflected on the time she spent as part of the Marvel Universe.

"I really loved doing 'Spider-Man,'" she started. "I loved everybody I worked with. I met Andrew [Garfield] there. I met Sally Field. Marc Webb was wonderful. It was a really special time in my life. That’s...

Emma Stone is revisiting her stint as Gwen Stacy with an affectionate, matter-of-fact clarity. In a video released this week tied to her Vogue cover, the actor calls making the two Amazing Spider-Man films “a really special time in my life,” stressing that what endures for her are the people she met on those sets, from co-star Andrew Garfield to Sally Field and director Marc Webb. “I really loved doing Spider-Man,” she says in the clip, describing that period as defined by relationships rather than the movies’ scale.

Stone also offers a less glossy snapshot of franchise publicity, recalling international tours as “truly psychotic,” the kind of schedule that leaves you “half dead.” She describes crisscrossing multiple countries in short order and operating on relentless jet lag, a reminder of how modern blockbuster promotion can rival production itself for sheer grind.

The reflections arrive more than a decade after her debut in the role,...

Emma Stone is looking back on a regrettable style choice from early in her career!

The 36-year-old actress was featured on Vogue‘s Life in Looks series in a video published Thursday (August 14). In the video, Emma said that she didn’t regret any of her fashion choices, but immediately realized that she was wrong and revealed one red carpet regret as she broke down her most iconic looks.

“I told you before that I wasn’t going to say that I regret anything. I’m immediately going against that,” Emma said when she was shown a picture of herself at the 2011 Critics Choice Awards.

At the award show, Emma wore a silver halter dress and kept her blonde hair tied up in a low updo. While Emma had no issue with her outfit, she said that the spray tan should have been scrubbed off.

Emma Stone is sharing some very rare comments about ex-boyfriend Andrew Garfield!

If you forgot, the 36-year-old two-time Oscar winner and the 41-year-old English actor dated from 2011 to 2015 after meeting on set of The Amazing Spider-Man, which hit theaters in 2012. They also starred together in 2014′s The Amazing Spider-Man 2.

In her new profile with Vogue for their September issue, Emma mentioned Andrew while reflecting on the Spider-Man movies.

Keep reading to find out more…“I mean I really loved doing Spider-Man,” Emma — who played Gwen Stacy opposite Andrew’s Peter Parker — reflected. “I loved everyone I worked with. I met Andrew there.”

“It was really a special time in my life,” she continued, while also giving a shout-out to the “wonderful” Sally Field and director Mark Webb.

“The people, more than the film itself, is what sticks with me for so long,” Emma added. “So I have only the...

Emma Stone has reflected on her tenure as Gwen Stacy in the two Amazing Spider-Man films, calling the experience “a really special time in my life” in a new “Life in Looks” video released this week. “I really loved doing Spider-Man. I loved everybody I worked with. I met Andrew there, I met Sally Field, [director] Marc Webb was wonderful,” she says in the clip, adding that it is “the people, more than the film itself” that stay with her and that she has “only the fondest memories of this whole experience.”

Stone’s comments arrive as renewed attention gathers around her early-2010s stretch opposite Andrew Garfield, whom she met on the 2012 production. In summarizing the video, one outlet highlighted her note that the shoot and its press cycle remain a period she remembers warmly, framing the remarks as a rare public look back at a blockbuster chapter of her career.

Emma Stone remembers her tenure with the Spider-Man franchise as a “really special time in my life.”

While breaking down some of her most iconic looks over the years with Vogue, the two-time Oscar winner was presented with a photo of herself at the 2014 London premiere of The Amazing Spider-Man 2. After raving about the yellow Versace gown she wore, Stone reflected on her time working on the two superhero films.

“I really loved doing Spider-Man. I loved everybody I worked with,” she said. “I met Andrew [Garfield] there, I met Sally Field, Marc Webb was wonderful. It was a really special time in my life.”

She added, “That’s the recurring theme, the people more than kind of the film itself is what sticks with me for so long. I have only the fondest memories of this experience.”

However, there is one thing the Bugonia star doesn’t miss about...

Before winning her two Oscars for 2016's La La Land and 2023's Poor Things, respectively, Emma Stone was a part of the superhero world. She played Gwen Stacy in Sony's The Amazing Spider-Man.

The actress has since moved on, but looked back on her time with the franchise in a new interview with Vogue. In a clip discussing her iconic fashion looks for different red carpet events, she also addressed her time working on The Amazing Spider-Man. While Stone admitted she loved doing the films, she revealed a detail that she absolutely hated.

Around the 4:20 mark, she reached the London, UK premiere for 2014's The Amazing Spider-Man 2, where she donned a long yellow Versace dress. "Oh yes, Spider-Man premiere in London in 2014," the actress recalled. "This is Versace. I love that color so much, that bright yellow, this beautiful necklace, the pink, the lip, and the whole thing,...

Emma Stone recently participated in a Vogue video interview where she ran through her iconic fashion looks over the years. A yellow dress she wore to the 2014 London premiere of “The Amazing Spider-Man 2” prompted memories of the highs and lows of playing Gwen Stacy in the short-lived Marvel franchise. The highs were the cast and crew. The lows were the global press tours.

“I really loved doing ‘Spider-Man,'” Stone said. “I loved everybody I worked with. I met Andrew [Garfield] there. I met Sally Field. Marc Webb was wonderful. It was a really special time in my life. That’s a recurring theme: The people more than the film itself is what sticks with me for so long. I only have fond memories of this experience.”

“I will say the press tours for these films… I don’t know how people do it,” she added. “I remember it...

Dawson City: Frozen Time (Bill Morrison)

There is a scholarly theory that proposes films are always telling the story of their creation, singing an endless song about their own history. That seemed to have been literally the case in 1978 when Frank Barrett, a construction worker in Dawson City in the northern Yukon, discovered strips of nitrate film poking out of the earth in the site of a new recreation center — like stubborn blossoms trying to defeat the harshness of winter. Children had taken to lighting the visible strips on fire unaware that in the joy of the pyrotechnic display they were erasing history. Barrett’s unique discovery led to the unearthing of over 500 reels containing films made in the 1910s and 1920s,...

Jennifer Lawrence is stepping out for a bite to eat.

The 34-year-old Oscar-winning actress braved the rainy weather as she and a friend made a quick dash to their ride as they headed to a restaurant for an early dinner on Wednesday (August 13) in New York City.

For her outing, Jennifer wore a white T-shirt and a coordinating white skirt paired with sandals, sunglasses, and a red purse.

Jennifer just recently spoke to Vogue about her close friendship with Emma Stone and revealed how they first met.

Earlier this year, Jennifer and husband Cooke Maroney welcomed their second child together. She gave birth to their first child, son Cy, in February 2022. While very few details about baby No. 2 have been made public year, Jennifer seemingly revealed the initial of the baby’s name!

Emma Stone has never shied away from total commitment, and it shows in her upcoming movie Bugonia. Set for release on Oct. 24, 2025, Bugonia is a remake of the cult South Korean film Save the Green Planet! and follows conspiracy theorists Jesse Plemons and Aidan Delbis' kidnapping of a powerful pharmaceutical CEO (Stone), believing her to be an alien.

From her Oscar-winning performance in La La Land to her haunting transformation in Poor Things, Stone has proven her dedication to her roles. However, for Yorgos Lanthimos' upcoming sci-fi thriller movie, Stone took things to a whole other level by shaving off her actual hair on camera for a pivotal scene, which friend Jennifer Lawrence tried to talk her out of.

In an interview with Vogue, Stone opened up about filming Bugonia, talking about the "emotional" experience where the kidnappers shave her head in the backseat of a stolen Range Rover. While...

Actress Emma Stone (“Bugonia”) poses for the September 2025 issue of “Vogue” magazine, wearing Louis Vuitton, photographed by Jamie Hawkesworth:

Stone made her television debut in the show "In Search of the New Partridge Family" (2004), a reality show that produced only an unsold pilot.

After small TV roles, she made her film debut in "Superbad" (2007) and "Zombieland" (2009). The 2010 teen comedy "Easy A" was Stone's first starring role, earning her nominations for the 'BAFTA Rising Star Award' and a 'Golden Globe Award' for 'Best Actress'.

This breakthrough was followed with further success in the romantic comedy "Crazy, Stupid, Love" (2011) and the drama "The Help" (2011).

In 2012 she played 'Gwen Stacy' in "The Amazing Spider-Man" and its sequel in 2014.

She was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for the role of a recovering drug addict in the black comedy-drama "Birdman" (2014).

Stone won an Academy Award' for 'Best Actress'...

Ari Aster’s Eddington (2025) follows a violent conflict in a small American town, but doesn’t track it like the conventional Westerns, where you’re told whom to root for. The film depicts the hot-button topics from the Covid-19 pandemic era that were either impossible to ignore or notice. Aster’s script doesn’t give us a single hero to side with, nor does it offer a single villain to despise. Instead, it attempts to portray the political turmoil on US soil as faithfully as possible. Its satire is meant to disturb and enrage you as things go out of control, seemingly with no end in sight. Even the film’s bleak, cynical ending doesn’t choose any side in the country’s corporate-funded bipartisan politics. Instead, it fills you with dread as it offers a rather bleak mirror to the present-day world, where people are either ignoring the elephant...

A24's most divisive movie has come to digital platforms less than a month after its theatrical release. Known for stunning visuals and unconventional approaches, the studio has released several movies that sparked strong debate. Despite being widely praised for its originality and emotional depth, Everything Everywhere All at Once received some backlash after its Oscar win.

Long before this, in 2018, Florence Pugh's Midsommar saw both critical acclaim and backlash, particularly due to its controversial ending. Some interpreted the movie's ending as being about liberation, while others saw it as a descent into cult manipulation. Recently, a new A24 dark comedy from the Midsommar director again sparked controversy.

Emma Stone didn’t mind shaving her head for Yorgos Lanthimos’ upcoming film Bugonia, but the experience did make her quite emotional.

After debuting a first look at the project at CinemaCon earlier this year, a clip from the teaser showcased the two-time Oscar winner with the haircut. In her Monday cover story with Vogue, the actress opened up about the mixed experience of shaving her head for the role.

“No better feeling in the world,” she said when describing what it felt like to chop off her hair. “The first shower when you’ve shaved your head? Oh my God, it’s amazing.”

However, Stone revealed that before they executed the cut mid-shot for Bugonia, she “burst into tears in her trailer” when remembering her mother, Krista Stone, who previously shaved her head during breast cancer treatment.

“She actually did something brave,” Stone recalled thinking to herself at the time.

After bombing at the box office, one of the most recent releases from star Pedro Pascal has arrived on streaming sooner than expected. Pascal stars alongside Joaquin Phoenix (Joker: Folie á Deux) and Emma Stone (Poor Things) in Eddington, the contemporary Western following a standoff between a small-town sheriff and the mayor that sparks a shocking conflict in the small town of Eddington, New Mexico. After grossing only $11 million at the box office against a $25 million budget, A24 has rushed Eddington onto digital platforms, where the film is now available to watch on Prime Video, Fandango at Home, and Apple TV+. Eddington was written and directed by Ari Aster, and it earned mediocre scores of 68% from critics and 64% from audiences on the world’s leading aggregator site, Rotten Tomatoes.

Eddington was always going to have trouble at the box office premiering in the middle of a stacked July. Jurassic World Rebirth kicked off the month,...

While the animated series "The Spectacular Spider-Man" has one of the best takes on Mary Jane Watson, the show made a rare choice among Spidey adaptations and didn't use Mj (Vanessa Marshall) as Peter Parker's (Josh Keaton) primary love interest. Instead, the show focused on Peter's romance with Gwen Stacy (Lacey Chabert). In the process, it modernized and revitalized Gwen Stacy's character, who was most famous for her dramatic but abrupt death in "The Amazing Spider-Man" #121 back in 1973.

In the season 1 finale of "The Spectacular Spider-Man," "Nature vs. Nurture," Eddie Brock/Venom (Ben Diskin) tells Peter he's going to hurt the person who he loves the most. Peter thinks he's talking about Mj, and so does the audience if they knew the Sam Raimi "Spider-Man" movies. But Venom is actually after Gwen. The symbiote, having previously bonded with Peter in body and mind,...

Jennifer Lawrence and Emma Stone have been best friends for years and we just got some new insight into their friendship!

Emma is on the cover of Vogue‘s September 2025 issue and Jennifer was interviewed for the article.

We learned some new details about how they met and what happened on the night when Jennifer presented Emma with her second Oscar in 2024.

Keep reading to find out more…

In the article, it was revealed that Jennifer and Emma had both tested “for the same part in a comedy pilot. Stone and Lawrence were often up for the same things; neither got this one, and the sitcom never went to series.”

Jennifer told Vogue that Emma is an “undeniable” talent, as proven by her two Oscar wins.

“In true Emily form, as soon as we got offstage and ran into the bathroom to scream and cry, I whispered, Two-time best-actress winner,...

Jennifer Lawrence says she initially tried to talk Emma Stone out of shaving her head for Yorgos Lanthimos’ Bugonia, a choice Stone ultimately made and filmed on camera for a pivotal kidnapping scene. The detail surfaces in a new magazine profile, where Lawrence jokes she had already “lived through” Stone’s short Billie Jean King cut years ago and feared another drastic chop; she later conceded the look suited her friend.

Stone plays a pharmaceutical CEO abducted by two conspiracy obsessives who shear her hair in the back seat of a stolen SUV; the moment was executed practically, with Stone’s real hair falling to the upholstery. She describes the experience as unexpectedly exhilarating—down to the first post-scene shower—and links the decision to memories of her mother losing hair during cancer treatment. Stone also quips that before cameras rolled, she took clippers to Lanthimos’ head.

Emma Stone is revealing the reason that shaving her head for Bulgonia made her so emotional!

The 36-year-old actress revealed in an interview with Vogue that she loved her hair transformation, but one part of it brought her to tears.

In the interview, published Monday (August 11), Emma opened up about how it felt to wear wigs in order to hide the big change, what she loved most about her shaved head, and why she felt so emotional after getting her new hairdo.

“I was bummed I wasn’t going out with it. Just straight-up bald. I think that would have been fun,” Emma told the publication of the fact that she was wearing wigs to events throughout 2024 in order to hide the hair transformation.

Despite having to hide her shaved head from the public, Emma said there was one thing she liked about it.

Emma Stone is making rare comments about being a mother.

The 36-year-old Oscar-winning actress is on the cover of Vogue‘s new issue and she chatted with the magazine about her four-year-old daughter Louise, who she shares with husband Dave McCary.
