Play video content Arnold Schwarzenegger says his family HATED that he pivoted from movies to politics and gave an insight on his view of raising kids, and the word “military” comes to mind! Arnold appeared on his daughter Katherine‘s IG show, “BDA Baby” — which stands for Before, During and After Baby. Waiting for your
Given the actor’s filmography, Russell Crowe looks like an intimidating dude. He’s played Les Miserables’ Javert, Man of Steel’s Jor-El, Noah of the Bible and even Robin Hood. So you’d think a serious actor would take a serious approach to other things in his career. But I’ve been wonderfully proved wrong. Crowe is clearly a
Refresh for latest…: International box office markets this weekend were again rife with holdovers doing solid business, while also awaiting a new major title to swing summer into full gear.

A now-viral video has been making the rounds of what many say is a real-life sighting of an actual werewolf in Africa, which was apparently shot dead … but the whole thing is BS. The clip that’s got people buzzing surfaced seemingly out of nowhere this week, and it shows what appears to be the
Luca is inspired by Enrico Casarosa’s own childhood living in the Italian Riviera and his experiences with his best friend (aside from the whole sea monster bit). Casarosa was much like Luca, more afraid and reserved, whilst his friend was daring and bold like Alberto. As the director shared with us, the ending of Luca
It’s thrilling to watch Lionsgate make a run at the box office top spot with The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard, a grown-up comedy. Not a kiddie fantasy, like Peter Rabbit 2 or Cruella. Not a Covid-era placeholder, like The War With Grandpa, or a streaming event, like Borat Subsequent Moviefilm. But a rough, raucous, R-rated action
Even in swim trunks, Harry Styles looks fly … it’s written all over him. The former “One Direction” singer couldn’t look more relaxed Friday while enjoying a shower right next to the beach in the Tuscany town of Porto Ercole. That name, btw, means Port Hercules — appropriate for Harry’s physique. He was flaunting his
Justin Lin brought Han, who’d first appeared in his film Better Luck Tomorrow, into the Fast and Furious fold in 2006 for Tokyo Drift.

Play video content Heeeeeeeeeeeere’s Karen!!! Actually, it’s Taryn Manning as the much-hyped, titular “Karen” in the upcoming thriller from Coke Daniels … a role meant to represent a blend of all the notorious “Karens” who’ve gone viral for the worst reasons over the past couple years. The “Orange is the New Black” star plays a
When it comes to breakthrough roles, Tom Hiddleston becoming Loki was one of Marvel’s best castings. Not only did Hiddleston graduate from indie films to blockbusters overnight, but he got to work with Anthony Hopkins. But even a two-time Oscar winner can get starstruck while filming a Marvel epic. Hiddleston admitted even Hopkins and other
“Black Sheep” is now being listed on three major music charts: the Rock Digital Song Sales, Alternative Digital Song Sales and Hot Rock & Alternative Songs charts.

Seth Rogen‘s got a new revenue stream if he wants it … because one of his ceramic vases just fetched nearly 5 figures at auction. Here’s the deal … Seth donated the ceramic sculpture to the Vancouver Art Gallery for its first-ever auction, and we’re told the winning bid came in Tuesday at a cool
