Over the past decade, Lily James has distinguished herself by building one of the most varied resumes as any film actor her age. After getting her start on British television, James first became known to American audiences in 2012 when she joined the cast of “Downton Abbey” as the love-struck Lady Rose MacClare, a role that earned James two Screen Actors Guild Awards as a member of the show’s ensemble cast.
The actress quickly followed up that television triumph with one on the big screen in the title role of Disney’s live-action “Cinderella,” directed by Kenneth Branagh, which clearly proved her appeal to audiences of all ages. One of the most reliable screen presences in recent years, James showed enormous range in choosing her projects, from such crowd pleasers as “Baby Driver” and “Mamma Mia!

Irish actors had never won an Oscar for leading roles despite Saoirse Ronan, Paul Mescal, and Colin Farrell receiving nominations. Notable Irish actors like Liam Neeson, Michael Fassbender, and Ruth Negga have earned Oscar nominations but never won. Irish actors like Kenneth Branagh and Barry Fitzgerald have won Oscars at the Academy Awards but never in a leading role.
The Oscars are the most sought-after prize for anyone working in films, but until Cillian Murphy's Oscar win, no Irish actor or actress had won the Oscar for a leading role. The Academy Awards are incredibly prestigious, with only a handful of categories awarding an Oscar each year, and several nominees fighting to win the coveted prize. However, despite incredible talent and many years of hard work, many people involved in cinema will never win an Oscar themselves.

This is only the second time Nolan’s ever been nominated for Best Director.

In the late eighties/ early nineties, shortly after they did Predator together, Arnold Schwarzenegger, John McTiernan and writer Shane Black were all set to team on a big-budget movie adaptation of the DC comic book Sgt. Rock. This is why, at the end of Predator, Black is seen reading a Sgt Rock comic during the cast roll. According to author Nick de Semlyan’s new book, “The Last Action Heroes” (buy it here), the project was heavily developed in ’88 and ’89, only to be demolished by an unlikely candidate – Monty Python’s John Cleese.

Máiréad Tyers’ first on-screen role straight out of drama school was in Kenneth Branagh’s “Belfast.” “You don’t really see me in the film at all,” she says. “[But] I’m so proud of it.” A year later, she wrapped her first leading role in U.K. Disney+ original comedy “Extraordinary.” In the show — basically a flatshare sitcom with a twist — Tyers plays 20-something Jen, who is messy, funny and the only person in the world without a superpower.
But Jen can also be selfish and occasionally obnoxious – mostly to her flatmates Carrie (Sofia Oxenham), Kash (Bilal Hasna) and, erm, Jizzlord (Luke Rollason) — and Tyers’ superpower is making her not just relatable, but likeable. So much so that the show, which was created and written by newcomer Emma Moran, has been renewed for a second season, which drops today on Disney+ and on Hulu in the U.S.

Sporting a shock of curly hair and a mustache that looks like it's a cousin to Kenneth Branagh's Poirot face-fuzz, Ewan McGregor makes for a complicated character in new eight-episode Paramount+ series A Gentleman In Moscow. Check out the first trailer here:

Dune: Part Two star Stellan Skarsgård has opened up about his five-movie tenure as Erik Selvig in the Thor and Avengers movies.
The actor recently reflected on his time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe during a career retrospective with Vanity Fair (via ComicBook.com). Despite coming to enjoy acting in the MCU sandbox, Skarsgård shared that he was initially not excited about joining the first Thor, but eventually came to love being part of the wildly successful superhero franchise.

David Jonsson and Morfydd Clark have become two of the fastest rising stars in the UK, and appear together in the new two-part British miniseries, Agatha Christie's Murder Is Easy.
