After starring in the 2021 rom-com A Castle For Christmas for Netflix, Brooke Shields is preparing for a trip abroad in her next romantic feature, Mother of the Bride. The streamer shared the first set of images from the film showing her in paradise as Lana, the titular mother of Miranda Cosgrove's Emma, who gets quite a shock when her daughter returns from overseas to announce that she's getting married. Better yet, it's a destination wedding in Thailand, in a month, and she's marrying the son of Lana's former flame who broke her heart years ago and will be there at the ceremony.

Actor Winona Ryder met with her frequent collaborator and friend Tim Burton to star in their hit film Beetlejuice. But it took some time before Ryder even realized she was speaking with the director.
Winona Ryder didn’t know that film directors could be like Tim Burton Winona Ryder | Rick Kern/WireImage
Ryder hadn’t done too many movies in the film industry before Beetlejuice. Starting out, she was mostly known for Lucas and Square Dance. But she’d been around the film industry enough to have certain expectations of filmmakers, seeing them as caring but rigid authority figures.
But this was until Ryder met with director Tim Burton, who showed her a different type of filmmaker. In an interview with Collider, she recalled meeting someone in a building while waiting for Burton to show up. And and her newfound acquaintance would have a conversation, with Ryder completely unaware who this person really was.

Dwayne Johnson is one of the biggest stars in Hollywood at present. He found success as a professional wrestler before he ventured into the world of acting and, subsequently, business. Given his fame, Johnson is often invited to talk shows, and he made an appearance on Drew Barrymore’s show recently.
The interview with the Black Adam actor was a riot, as the two stars discussed a variety of subjects. One moment between them stood out, though, when Johnson asked for Barrymore’s consent before a particular act, and it has endeared the Rock to his fans even more.

If there's one actress whose name is synonymous with the "Halloween" franchise, created by director John Carpenter in 1978, it's Jamie Lee Curtis. If there's another, it's Danielle Harris. Curtis holds the record for most "Halloween" movie appearances with six film, not counting archival footage, and the late Donald Pleasance is in five (though his likeness was used in the new "Halloween" trilogy). Harris, however, appearing in four "Halloween" movies, is the only actress to play two different characters in the franchise, and she did so by never taking no for an answer. When conditions were wrong, she walked, and when arbitrary directorial edicts threatened to block her, she acted her way back in with the best audition.
Harris was a young child when she first encountered Michael Myers. What happened to that little girl? She grew up, but she never stopped working. These days, she's a mother in real life,...

Prince Harry may still be quarrelling with his family and the British courts, but Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, has put a dispute with one of her relatives behind her.
After almost two years of litigation and several amended complaints, a federal judge today threw out the defamation case from the former Suits star’s half-sister. In fact, it’s no exaggeration to say Judge Charlene Edwards Honeywell tossed out the efforts by Samantha Markle hard.
“The Court grants the motion to dismiss, in full,” the Florida-based judge wrote in her 58-page order Tuesday. (Read the ruling here).
“Plaintiff’s claims will be dismissed with prejudice, as she has failed to identify any statements that could support a claim for defamation or defamation-by-implication by this point, her third try at amending her complaint, in either the book Finding Freedom, the Netflix series Harry & Meghan, or Defendant and her husband’s hour-long televised CBS Interview,...

Hannah Einbinder was moved to tears. Nick Thune was moved to sing. John Leguizamo shared hard truths. Samantha Bee rallied the crowd on behalf of womens rights. And everyone who took part in Variety’s Power of Comedy Awards on Friday made fun of the awards themselves, now in their second year at SXSW in Austin, Texas.
“Nothing is more show business-y than an award that says ‘We love that you’re here’ two years after network executives have said ‘We need you to be gone,’ ” Bee told the packed house at the famed Acl Theater, a nod to the demise in 2022 of her TBS series “Full Frontal with Samantha Bee.”
Bee, who was honored by presenter Brooke Shields with the Comedy Innovator award for being one of very few women to host a late-night comedy series, noted that the event coincided with International Woman’s Day.

Katie Couric, also on the panel, cited stats that social media’s impact on young women is on par with binge drinking in terms of spikes in suicide rates. “We have a real crisis on our hands here,” said the former Today Show and CBS Evening News anchor.

Meghan Markle has been on a reinvention tour lately, and things are looking up for her and her royal husband, Prince Harry.
Meghan has a new stylist, one that is close to the singer Adele, who is choosing her wardrobe options. Choosing a stylist is a big step for Meghan, and it seems to work, judging by the new opportunities coming her way.
Celebrity stylist Jamie Mizrahi has also worked with Riley Keough, Jeremy Allen White, and Jennifer Lawrence, as reported by Monsters and Critics.
Page Six reports that while Meghan had not used a stylist during her working royal days, the addition of Jamie will undoubtedly help with the “Hollywood glam” that is missing now.
Meghan’s recent working dinner was in a toned-down outfit so she could stand out, which was something she learned from Jamie. Her dinner with Terry Wood, from Oprah’s Harpo Productions, may have paid off.

In a world obsessed with the curated perfection celebrities project, the truth begins to crackle through the facade: the price of child stardom is often far steeper than applause.

In the talk about s*xual harassment in Hollywood, Blake Lively spoke up about her own experience. Even though she’s faced accusations herself, she’s shining a light on how misconduct is widespread in the entertainment biz. She shared a story about a makeup artist, highlighting the messed-up power dynamics behind the scenes.

What’s surprising is that, despite the accusations, the makeup artist got a thumbs-up from a producer manager in the form of a recommendation letter. This whole situation brings up concerns about accountability and support systems in the industry. It’s another voice saying things need to change.

Don Murray, who received an Oscar nomination for his performance opposite Marilyn Monroe in the 1956 film adaptation of William Inge’s play “Bus Stop,” has died. He was 94.
His son Christopher confirmed his death to the New York Times.
In the 2017 reboot of “Twin Peaks,” he played Bushnell Mullins, the chief executive of Lucky 7 Insurance.
Murray also starred in the fourth entry in the “Planet of the Apes” franchise, “Conquest of the Planet of the Apes”; played Brooke Shield’s father in “Endless Love”; and recurred on prime-time soap “Knots Landing” as Sid Fairgate.
Reviewing “Bus Stop,” directed by Joshua Logan, the New York Times said: “With a wondrous new actor named Don Murray playing the stupid, stubborn poke and with the clutter of broncos, blondes and busters beautifully tangled, Mr. Logan has a booming comedy going before he gets to the romance. A great deal is owed to Mr.

It’s already been a busy 2024 for Netflix. Out is long time film chief Scott Stuber; in are live sports (sort of), a huge Sundance splash, and 18 Oscar nominations, the most of any individual studio. What does the next 11 months have in store? Answer: a hell of a lot.
Netflix on February 1 released a teaser video for its biggest properties arriving in 2024, including more than 50 new movies and 90 new and returning series. The highlight is “Squid Game 2,” the follow-up season to the South Korean dystopian smash hit that became Netflix’s biggest show of all time.
At the end of Netflix’s mega-tease, we see Seong Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) and his new bright-red hair walking through an airport when a mysterious voice on his phone tells him, “You’re going to regret the choice you made.”
“I’m going to find you, no matter what it takes,” he says in return.

Ask enough people what they think about psychics and clairvoyants, and you’ll probably get eye-rolls. Whether referencing the storefront tarot readers or the more seriously minded seers who perform seances and communicate with those who have transitioned into the afterlife, the impression of this spiritual trade is generally disbelief. What’s unique about director Lana Wilson’s latest documentary, which primarily highlights seven psychics living in various parts of New York City, is that it never aims to persuade you against that reaction. In this deeply moving, compassionate exploration, determining whether this small and goofy group actually has real powers is beside the point.
In order for Look Into My Eyes to work, you need a director capable of establishing trust and understanding––mostly so the movie’s subjects know their oft-ridiculed, doubted work won’t be set up for another punchline. After a series of documentaries spent capturing...

The celebrity documentary is not a new genre by any stretch of the imagination. In the past few years alone, we’ve gotten a look into the lives of Brooke Shields, Pamela Anderson, Michael J. Fox, Sylvester Stallone, David Beckham, Selena Gomez, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and many more. But I can assure you that you’ve never seen one quite like Will Ferrell’s.

Over the years, Bradley Cooper has established himself as the epitome of A-List talent in an ever-expanding industry of gifted performers. Challenging the likes of Brad Pitt and Matthew McConaughey before him, Cooper's work in blockbuster franchises like The Hangover and Guardians of the Galaxy has cemented him as an unstoppable force of equal charm and humor. It almost seems as if any project Cooper attaches himself to these days is destined to be a critical and commercial hit, including his most recent Netflix success, Maestro. Of course, as is usually the case, this colossal level of success was not instantaneous, forcing the future star to take part in some pretty questionable projects before he could truly earn his wings.

Few faces have been more ubiquitous. In the early 1980s, Brooke Shields was the most famous teenager in the country, gracing magazine covers, appearing in ads, starring in movies — and generating controversy. Even before she declared that nothing came between her and her Calvins, the young star had shocked the world by portraying a 12-year-old prostitute in the 1978 film Pretty Baby. In candid interviews, the eloquent Shields details the ups and downs of life as an icon and reveals painful truths, such as postpartum depression, a sexual assault, and her loving but strained relationship with her alcoholic mother, Teri. Here are three more of many fascinating stops along the way. 1. Cameras were rolling for her first kiss. On the set of Pretty Baby, director Louis Malle was frustrated she was scrunching up her face up for her character’s first ...

Brooke Shields ignored a call from The Blue Lagoon director, Randal Kleiser, after her documentary shed light on her sexual exploitation by older directors. Shields felt that she was objectified and used by the men she worked with in her younger years, who saw her as a commodity rather than a person. Shields took charge of her own story, attending Princeton University, writing autobiographies, and using her experiences to help others through her podcast.
Brooke Shields appeared in The Blue Lagoon in 1980 and decades after, she admits she ignores calls from the movie's director, Randal Kleiser. The Blue Lagoon is a controversial '80s romance movie that tells the story of two children marooned on an island in the South Pacific. Emmeline (Shields) and Richard (Christopher Atkins) progress through puberty and their sexual awakening on the island, eventually conceiving a child together and determining they like the simple life they have found.

The Sundance Film Festival has announced its line-up for its 40th incarnation.
The 2024 fest will see new entries from fest regulars like Steven Soderbergh, Lana Wilson and Richard Linklater, while also debuting titles from new directors with 40 percent of the features program coming from first time feature filmmakers. A-list talent like Kirsten Stewart, Pedro Pascal, Lucy Liu, Laura Linney and Woody Harrelson star in fest films, while onscreen talents like Jesse Eisenberg and Chiwetel Ejiofor continue their forays into directing.

Bradley Cooper is admitting just how “terrified” he was to portray Leonard Bernstein for the Netflix film “Maestro.”
Cooper, who also directed, produced, and co-wrote the feature, said during a special New York City tastemakers screening Q&a at the Whitby Hotel moderated by Lin-Manuel Miranda that he spent six years mastering how to conduct a six-minute sequence. The post-screening panel also included Cooper’s co-stars Matt Bomer and Carey Mulligan, and the movie debuted to a standing ovation.
The scene Cooper referenced captures Bernstein famously conducting the 1976 London Symphony Orchestra in Ely Cathedral.
“That scene I was so worried about because we did it live,” Cooper said. “That was the London Symphony Orchestra. I was recorded live, I had to conduct them. And I spent six years learning how to conduct six minutes and 21 seconds of music.”
Cooper credited his “wonderful teachers” for helping him reenact Bernstein’s conducting.
