If there’s one topic in Hollywood right now that gets the most discussion, it’s probably the use of AI. And if there’s one film right now that is taking full advantage of it, it’s Robert Zemeckis’ Here. Now, ahead of the movie’s November 1st release, the first reactions are coming out of AFI Fest.

By and large, it seems like Robert Zemeckis pulled off an incredible feat with Here, which has the bonus gimmick of being shot from the same angle for the movie’s duration. Check out some of the reactions below:

#HereMovie Nice to see Tom Hanks & Robin Wright back on the screen together 30 years after #ForrestGump. The de-aging tech in the movie was pretty expressive. It's interesting to see the entire movie from one camera angle about decades stories in one house.For me the stories of… pic.twitter.com/8mp0KJAoKD...

Across his lengthy career, Caan played many memorable roles, including Sonny Corleone in “The Godfather” and Brian Piccolo in “Brian’s Song.” He was mourned by his peers as the Hollywood community learned of his death.

Director Spike Lee tweeted “Damn. We Lost Another Great- @James_Caan. Many Know Jimmy from The Godfather But Please Check Out “Da Work” He Did in Thief Directed By Michael Mann. Rest in Paradise.”

Aug. 11 marks seven years without Robin Williams and fans are paying tribute to the beloved actor and comedian through the acts of kindness and impressive body of work he left behind.

As posts memorializing Williams began to flood social media Wednesday, one tribute celebrated the man’s legacy of “joy and inspiration” from a considerably more intimate place of loss.

“Dad, seven years ago today you passed on,” Zak Williams tweeted along with a photo of his father. “The joy and inspiration you brought to the world carries on in your legacy and in your family, friends and fans you so loved. You lived to bring laughter and to help others. I will be celebrating your memory today. Love you forever.”

It's already been ten years since we lost Corey Haim, and fans are celebrating the late actor's memory on social media on what would have been his 49th birthday.

Haim died of pneumonia in 2010, and over a decade later, fans all across the world along with those who knew Corey are continuing to pay tribute to his legacy.

"Happy heavenly birthday Mr #CoreyHaim may you forever shine bright like you always did. Miss ya kid," one big fan says.

Hollywood is showing their outpouring of support over the loss of Albert Finney, who passed away Friday at the age of 82.

Actors, directors and his co-stars alike are recognizing Finney for his versatility as an actor, his ability to disappear into roles and his handsome charm that helped define a screen persona for generations.

“Remember the great Albert Finney tonight by watching ‘Miller’s Crossing’ and ‘Under the Volcano’ — two vastly different performances that showcase his unique ability to combine power with powerlessness,” “Mission:Impossible – Fallout” director Christopher McQuarrie tweeted.

And those two films don’t even scratch the surface of his career, with others recognizing him for his early achievements in the 1963 Best Picture-winning film “Tom Jones,” his Oscar-nominated work opposite Julia Roberts in 2000’s “Erin Brockovich” and up until his final role in the James Bond thriller “Skyfall.

Actor Rance Howard, father of Ron and Clint Howard and a prolific actor in his own right, has died at the age of 89. Ron Howard broke the sad news to fans on social media late on Saturday. Howard started his career when he was 20-years old, as part of a touring theater company. He acted alongside Henry Fonda in the play Mister Roberts, playing the role of Lindstrom across the country for a year and a half. Earlier this month, his granddaughter, actress Bryce Dallas Howard, praised Howard at the Broken Memories premiere and said that she admired how he stuck to acting despite never really hitting it big.

Ron Howard took to Twitter to share the news of Rance Howard's death while also paying tribute to the late actor. Ron Howard shared that his father changed the course of the Howard family history when he started acting. Ron had this to say.

In all honesty I don’t really know what I like about this show. It’s kind of like Michael Corleone’s line from The Godfather, “Just when I thought I was out…They pull me back in…” The Romantic Foibles of Esteban is a show about a guy and the disastrous dates he sets up on an on-line dating service called Kung Fu Dating. And it often goes to somewhat obvious and broad places, but somehow remains both fresh and charming...with a little cheese thrown in. Created by Canyon Prince and J Michael Briggs, each episode begins with the talking mouth of Esteban’s new date, followed by the click of his mouse. Episode two is the weakest of the bunch, though Esteban’s date, actress Ellen, is nicely played in all her psycho-brilliance by Gillian Shure. But it’s episode three where I found myself really enjoying...
