Exclusive: Elvis Presley was a big fan of peacocks until he banned them from Graceland after they started pecking at his gold Cadillac.

Streamer Peacock is not holding a grudge and will air a recent docuseries on The King and his relationship with various women. The NBCU-platform has picked up Loving Elvis from British production company Renowned Films. It will launch on November 13.

The series was originally ordered by Amazon Prime Video, which aired it in the UK and across certain European territories earlier this year. It was titled Elvis’ Women internationally.

The series will look at the loves, dalliances, and forbidden courtships of Presley and will feature conversations with his nurse, his fiancé, his live-in girlfriends, and a few young fans who desperately dreamt of more.

The story is told by seventeen women and two men who observed the King across the decades from the 1950s through to the 1970s.

Halloween has drifted off like a ghost in the night, and most of us have recovered from the piles of food we ate at Thanksgiving. That means it's time to build snow sculptures, hang up the twinkling lights and stockings, and watch some holiday classic films like 1947's "Miracle on 34th Street." Oddly enough, it was released in June of that year because 20th Century Fox studio head Darryl F. Zanuck thought people saw more films in the summer, according to the Turner Classic Movies website. Despite the warm breezes blowing as ticket holders waited to check out this story of a man who might very well be Santa Claus, it wasn't filmed in the summer. In fact, the scene at the big parade was filmed during the actual 1946 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City in November. 

The cast had to sneak in some shots during the real...

In a memoir being released on Tuesday called “Little Sister,” Lana Wood, Natalie Wood’s sister, writes that Kirk Douglas sexually assaulted Natalie when she was a teenager, according to a report in the Associated Press. The alleged assault took place in 1955 after Lana and their mother, Maria Zakharenko, dropped Natalie off at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles to meet with Douglas.

Kirk Douglas died in February 2020 at age 103.

His son Michael did not respond to Variety’s request for comment. But to the AP, Michael Douglas’ publicist issued a statement: “May they both rest in peace.”

Variety has not yet obtained a copy of “Little Sister.”

Quoting from the memoir, the AP wrote that Natalie said to Lana, “And, uh … he hurt me Lana.” Lana writes in “Little Sister” that the situation ” was like an out-of-body experience. I was terrified, I was confused.” According to the book, their...

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (L.A.S.D.) is being petitioned to open an inquiry into the 1981 drowning case of Natalie Wood, as an upcoming book claims that there was a cover-up of the circumstances related to her death.

The author of the book has taken legal action to obtain confidential sheriff records, which he said the department to date has refused to share.

Author Samuel A. Perroni, a retired federal prosecutor and Arkansas trial lawyer, brought the petition Thursday in L.A. Superior Court against the L.A.S.D. and Sheriff Alex Villanueva, seeking the judge’s order directing that the information be turned over.

“Through his work, [Perroni] seeks to inform the public about the circumstances of Ms. Wood’s death,” the petition reads. “Regrettably, respondents have met the petitioner’s requests for records with obstruction and delay.”

The new petition requests access to copies of the L.

Actress Natalie Wood grew up, almost literally, onscreen. From her first credited role as little Margaret Ludwig in 1946’s “Tomorrow is Forever,” as the defiant Judy in 1955’s “Rebel Without a Cause,” and to the married Carol in 1969’s “Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice,” Wood embodied all the stages of not just growing up, but growing up as a woman. Much has been written about her, and nearly every year on the anniversary of her death the Lapd brings up her tragic drowning in the water off Catalina Island.

It is these tragic circumstances that immediately color HBO’s new documentary, “Natalie Wood: What Remains Behind.” Natasha Gregson-Wagner, Wood’s daughter, is the narrator and entry into Wood’s inner circle of husbands, friends, and children, hoping to tell more about the actress than just how she died, and it’s a valid crusade. Wood’s life has...
