Tiffany Haddish revealed to the Los Angeles Times that she sometimes investigates the trolls spamming her social media accounts with hateful comments and finds a way to reach out to them directly. The “Girls Trip” favorite said that online bullying got so negative over the last year that she hired a digital forensics analyst when death threats starting coming her way. The analyst’s research showed that 75% of these threats were “created by robots in Malaysia and Iran.”
Despite her acclaimed comedy career, Haddish has become a polarizing figure due to her run-ins with the law. She was arrested in 2022 on suspicion of driving under the influence, then she got charged with her second DUI last November. The charge was later dismissed. A lawsuit was also filed against Haddish in 2022 that claimed she groomed a fellow comedian. Haddish denied the claim and less than a month later the accuser asked...

The most important rule of a Deadpool movie is, never play by the rules. Fourth walls are to be broken, tropes are to be dismantled, and obvious choices are to be ignored at all costs. And so, the upcoming third big-screen outing for Ryan Reynolds’ Merc With A Mouth is ripping up that rulebook once again, not just bringing back the katana-wielding chaos agent for the regular threequel, but launching him firmly into the realm of Marvel Studios, and pairing him – at long, long last – with none other than Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine. Get ready for the ultimate Marvel team-up in Deadpool & Wolverine, a bloody buddy comedy like no other – it’s going to be non-stop mutant mayhem.

And you thought waiting for the back half of a “Stranger Things” season was agonizing. Netflix is splitting the final season of “Cobra Kai,” Season 6, into three parts.
You read that right. Though it has become commonplace for Netflix to divide new seasons of its biggest hits into two parts, this is the first time the streamer has split a season (of any series) into thirds. The next-up example of a hit Netflix original being halved is mere weeks away. The eight-episode “Bridgerton” Season 3 will premiere the first four on May 16 and the back half on June 13.

Challengers and The Fall Guy prove that the movie star is still alive – and can make a huge difference to a film’s success. A few thoughts…
The movie star is dead. Or at least our idea of stardom may have drastically changed. After streaming has become a credible rival to cinemas, it’s not so much star power that necessarily gets people to spend their hard-earned money on a movie ticket. Sure, the Swifties ran to the cinemas to watch The Eras Tour, but Taylor Swift is hardly a movie star, despite her turn in Cats.
Ana De Armas blames social media for the lack of movie stars. “I feel like the new generations don’t have that concept, because of social media,” de Armas told Vanity Fair in 2023. “There is so much information out there and oversharing. The concept of a movie star is someone untouchable you only see onscreen.

FX's critically-acclaimed historical drama Shogun finished up its 10-episode run last week, and Anna Sawai was universally praised for her performance as the tragic Toda Mariko.
Amid the Emmy-nomination talk, the Monarch: Legacy of Monsters star is certain to be inundated with movie offers, and we wouldn't be surprised if she was given a shot at a major superhero role at some point.
Sawai spoke about her career and potential move to Hollywood to THR, revealing that her big break could have come much earlier, but her commitment to her J-Pop band, Faky, meant she was forced to miss her chance to audition for the role of Katana in 2016's Suicide Squad.
“After the training — multiple years of training — you are either lucky and join a group, or debut as a solo singer, or you’re gone,” Sawai explained. “I was like, ‘This is my chance!’ And then...

“You’ve been making women feel bad about themselves since you were invented,” the hip teen Sasha (Ariana Greenblatt) tells the stereotypical Barbie standing before her. “You represent everything wrong with our culture: sexualized capitalism, unrealistic physical ideals.” Stereotypical Barbie is horrified: “No, no, no, you’re describing something stereotypical,” she insists.
Margot Robbie spent much of Barbie proving why the doll she portrayed wasn’t the sexist object that girls like Sasha see. The Aussie actor has a much more difficult task ahead of her if she’s going to do the same thing in her upcoming project Avengelyne. Everything about Avengelyne screams mindless sex and violence—which is why Robbie is the perfect choice. Hold on, let us explain…

Ajay Devgn’s Last 5 Films At The Indian Box Office ( Photo Credit – YouTube )
Unlike Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgn has managed to find some momentum at the Indian box office in the post-pandemic era. Excluding cameos and guest appearances, the actor has been a part of six theatrical releases in the post-covid era and he has witnessed mixed bag of theatrical run. So, in today’s piece, we’ll be taking a look at how Ajay’s last 5 theatrical releases have performed at ticket windows in India!
Talking in the order of oldest to latest, Thank God is the first of Ajay’s last five releases. It was a Diwali 2022 release and was indulged in a clash with Akshay Kumar’s Ram Setu. As there was no buzz on the ground level, the film was a huge flop despite the festive season, and in the lifetime run, it earned just 35 crores at the Indian box office.

Bruce Timm understands how broadcast TV works. He has been working in the DC Animated Universe for decades, heading a huge number of successful films and series. He has fought battle upon battle with the committees responsible for censorship, trying to make sure his vision for a specific superhero show stayed intact.

Despite this, it would seem that there was one line that even he was unable to cross.

Denzel Washington is unarguably one of the best actors and personality as a whole that the entertainment industry could ever be gifted with. Not only is he one of the most respectable celebrities in all of Hollywood, he is also one of the most widely commended actors of all time. If anything, he doesn’t hesitate to speak his mind and act his heart out.
Denzel Washington in The Tragedy of Macbeth.
That being said, he also aimed to break one long-standing stereotype about him while working on his 2001 thriller-crime masterpiece with Ethan Hawke, Training Day. According to what Hawke shared during an interview, even when people tried to stop him, Washington stayed on his decision to prove that he could play a bad guy and still be a role model by “being great at my job.”

Ethan Hawke reveals what Denzel Washington said to him the night Hawke lost his ‘Training Day’ Oscar
The year was 2002 and Ethan Hawke was up for the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for his work in “Training Day.” When Marcia Gay Harden read Jim Broadbent’s name, winning for “Iris,” Hawke’s co-star Denzel Washington whispered something in his ear.
It wasn’t “boom!” As Hawke revealed in a recent interview, Washington – who had already won an Oscar for “Glory” and would win a second that very night – said, “It’s better that you didn’t win. Losing was better.”
Hawke, who would go on to get three more Oscar nominations for acting (“Boyhood”) as well as screenwriting, expanded what Washington meant. “You don’t want an award to improve your status. You want to improve the award’s status,” he said. “That’s the way he thinks. That’s what I’m talking about playing with Babe Ruth. The Academy Award has more power, because Denzel has a couple.

Renowned for his appealing persona both inside and outside of the ring, Dwayne Johnson aka The Rock, recently assumed a formidable position in the WWE and was also elected to the Tko Board in January. However, his ability to identify rising talent is what is currently making headlines again, as evidenced by a 2019 video that went viral on social media.

The actor mentioned Drew McIntyre as someone who he thinks has the potential to be the company’s face in an interview with TMZ Sports four years ago. The Rock praised McIntyre’s impressive physique, emphasizing the importance of his honing wrestling skills and connecting with the audience, which are key components in transforming a wrestler into a star.

Ayesha Curry, entrepreneur, cookbook author, and wife of NBA superstar Steph Curry, isn’t afraid to speak her mind. But one past public appearance left a sour taste in her mouth. In 2019, Curry made a guest appearance on Jada Pinkett Smith’s talk show, “Red Table Talk”.

The show, known for its candid discussions about relationships and personal struggles, seemed like a perfect fit for Curry to open up. However, what unfolded after the filming wasn’t what Curry expected. She almost felt betrayed after her comments came out entirely different after the final editing of the interview.

After this year’s Dune fever, it seems that featuring the names of Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya on the posters is enough to get people buying movie tickets. The Chani actress' new romance drama completely proves it.
The movie’s plot centers on the characters, who are quite specific for the audience, as they are tennis players, so be sure that there will be a lot of aces, volleys, as well as broken rackets. However, luckily, that's not the main point of the movie.
Zendaya here plays Tashi, an ex-player, retired from the big sport after an injury, who is now married to a fading tennis champion (Mike Faist), coaching him and preparing his glowing comeback on the pedestal. The snag is that his future competitor for the gold (Josh O'Connor) is both his former best friend and Tashi’s ex-lover.

Fred Schepisi is set to direct Israel-based thriller “The Dimona Affair,” Variety has learned exclusively.
The project is based on the story of a whistleblower who claimed Israel was building a nuclear weapons program. (The country has always denied it has nuclear weapons).
After giving The Sunday Times of London a detailed interview about the program in the 1980s, causing an international scandal, “low level” Israeli nuclear technician Mordechai Vanunu fled the country. He was then reportedly lured to Rome by a female Israeli secret service agent in a honeytrap operation where he was kidnapped and repatriated to Israel. Vanunu eventually stood trial for espionage and treason before being convicted and jailed.
Schepisi, whose last feature project was “Words and Pictures” starring Clive Owen and Juliette Binochein 2013, is set to direct from a script penned by screenwriter and investigative journalist Morrie Rosmarin.

“We had a lot of fun in Istanbul because it was the opening of the season” declares Oscar-nominated cinematographer Danny Cohen (“The King’s Speech”) about the acclaimed third season of the Apple TV+ spy drama “Slow Horses.” It opens in the Turkish city, but then soon finds itself back in the decidedly unglamorous Slough House, the MI5 office reserved for the outcasts and misfits of the British intelligence agency. For our recent webchat he adds with a smile, “you instantly have the idea to sell the audience a complete red herring that they’re going on some sort of ‘James Bond’ travelogue. See the world, travel the globe, beaches, interesting cities, and then to use that as a hook to then drag everybody back to the well-worn interiors of Slough House.” Watch our exclusive video interview above.

Game, set… but there’s not much of a match. “Challengers,” a steamy tennis drama starring Zendaya and directed by Luca Guadagnino, is poised to lead the domestic box office without much in the way of competition.
The film, from Amazon MGM, is projected to collect $12 million to $15 million from 3,400 North American theaters in its opening weekend. Although those are modest projections for any nationwide release, it’s this weekend’s only major new movie and shouldn’t have trouble claiming first place from A24’s “Civil War,” the reigning champion. Last weekend, “Civil War” topped the box office for the second consecutive frame with $11.1 million and has grossed $70 million globally to date. Overall, the domestic box office is 20% behind the same point in 2023, according to Comscore.

Pop quiz hot shot: What’s the best action movie of the past 20 or 30 years that never received a cinematic sequel? Nope, it’s not Speed. Is it Wanted? Nobody? The Accountant? How about Knight and Day or American Made? While the latter comes from director Doug Liman, we’d argue that the correct answer is Mr. & Mrs. Smith, Liman’s eminently watchable assassin thriller that continues to shine thanks to the explosive chemistry between Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, two luminous movie stars who met and fell in love during production. Although the movie earned decent reviews and grossed nearly half a billion dollars worldwide, Mr. & Mrs. Smith never received an official sequel or cinematic spinoff and is often remembered for the juicy tabloid gossip surrounding its two superstars.
Yet, in 2024, a small-screen adaptation of Liman’s hit action flick has been produced by Amazon Prime Video,...

Italian filmmaker Luca Guadagnino returns with the sexy tennis drama “Challengers,” starring the powerhouse trio of Zendaya (“Euphoria”), Josh O’Connor (“The Crown”) and Mike Faist (“West Side Story”) as superstar tennis players who fall into a competitive love triangle. This is Zendaya’s first movie after “Dune: Part Two,” and it will be a real test for her as a box office star, since sports dramas can be hit or miss. “Challengers” really is riding on her popularity to avoid the pitfalls of the genre.

Denzel Washington is one of the most respected and prolific actors in Hollywood. The two-time Oscar winner is often considered to be one of the greatest actors of the generation. He has worked with acclaimed directors such as Spike Lee, Tony Scott, Ridley Scott, Antoine Fuqua, and more. He won the Oscar for the films Glory and Training Day.

Dwayne Johnson has led a star-studded career in almost every field he has stepped in — be it sports, entertainment, or business. But that success didn’t save him from getting into an incredibly humiliating moment while meeting one of those brilliant actors he most admired and wanted to meet while growing up. This actor was none other than the late beloved legend, Robin Williams.

Luckily enough for him, even before joining the sequel of William’s widely-celebrated Jumanji film from 1995, Johnson managed to run into the iconic comedian for the very first time in his life. But that first meet was so nerve-wracking for the WWE hunk that it eventually ended up as an embarrassing moment for The Rock, with him even terming it “a disaster!”

Deemed one of the greatest actors in Hollywood, Denzel Washington exudes a classic movie star aura. Renowned for his enduring charm and the seamless blend of irony and sincerity in his iconic roles, Washington embodies the timeless essence of a Hollywood legend. He is also known for avoiding the franchise films, with the notable exception of The Equalizer trilogy.

He has also been commended for the same by being named the second-highest-grossing actor to not star in a franchise, following the Titanic star Leonardo DiCaprio. However, Washington did not seem to mind the ranking, as he responded with a touch of wit.

In a conversation with ScreenRant, Denzel Washington expressed his disinterest in sequels and potential franchise films, as he highlighted his approach of focusing on each film individually rather than considering potential sequels.

When it comes to the classics of cinema—and sometimes the dregs—it’s always fun to think about what might’ve been. Casting especially can be a strange alchemy between actor and role, and when the formula is off, it’s easy to ponder whether the spell would work at all. Can you imagine Robert Redford as Michael Corleone? What about Tom Selleck as Indiana Jones? And it’s an interesting challenge to envision what Tim Burton’s Batman might’ve been if it starred Bill Murray versus Robin Williams.

The synopsis of this movie seems to be clearly simple: a father wants his two daughters to succeed in sports, while everything around is presented like obstacles in their way. However, it’s not like you may think in the beginning, but something more than that.

The franchise could have been totally different had Jim Carrey been a part of Steven Spielberg’s Jurassic Park. The ever-talented actor initially garnered the spotlight with his work in the 1990 TV series, In Living Color.

Despite Oscars Slapgate, Will Smith Held a TikTok Record Since 2 Years: Dwayne Johnson Just Beat Him
Over the past few years, Will Smith has become quite a controversial figure. Even outside of his marriage with Jada Pinkett Smith, his actions in the past few years have made it very difficult for his fans to defend him. The perfect example of this would be his infamous encounter with Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars, where he went on stage and slapped the comedian after he did not like a joke that was made.
Will Smith in Bad Boys for Life (2020).
One would assume his following and success have declined since these incidents, however, evidence shows otherwise. The actor has held a very impressive record on TikTok for two years, being the most followed actor on the social media platform.
That was until Dwayne Johnson beat him and gained a bigger following.

Will Smith performed with J Balvin at the Coachella Stage at the 2024 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, California.
It was Smith’s first public performance since his infamous slap at Chris Rock during the 2022 Oscars. The actor was banned from the ceremony and went into hiding.
Smith sported a suit and tie with shades, giving Men in Black vibes as he did in the 2012 film, and Balvin was in a sparkly silver sweatshirt.
Last year, the rapper and actor appeared at estranged wife Jada Pinkett Smith’s book tour in Baltimore for her new memoir, Worthy.
Pinkett Smith revealed that she and Smith had been separated for seven years. Will said their decades-long relationship was “very long and tumultuous.”
The couple has remained legally together and aims to support each other in good times and bad. They share two children, Jaden and Willow.

It was not the best time for Hollywood star Will Smith despite winning an Academy Award for Best Actor for his portrayal of Richard Williams in his 2021 film, King Richard. The celebration of his Oscar win was sidelined by his behavior as he slapped presenter Chris Rock at the 94th Academy Awards.

As Rock attempted to lighten the event with laughter, he made a joke directed at Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith while introducing the nominees for Best Documentary at the Oscars. Pinkett Smith rolled her eyes in response to the joke. Smith found it funny at first as he was seen laughing at the joke, but after seeing his wife’s response, the actor could not hold back and rushed to the stage and slapped Rock.

Jimmy Kimmel wasn’t planning to host the Oscars next year. But now he might.
The ABC late-night host was responding to comments from former President Donald Trump on Truth Social.
Trump said that Kimmel was “made to look like a Fool, which he is, and at the same time go down in Television History as the Worst Host Ever Of The Once Vaunted Academy Awards!”
Kimmel got a laugh out of this. “I don’t know. That must be why they asked me to host the show again next year. Which I wasn’t planning to do but now I might,” he added. “Maybe – you know what – maybe you can watch on the TV in the rec room at Riker’s with all the guys.”
The comedian has hosted the last two Oscars as well as two back-to-back in 2017 and 2018. He has been approached to return next year and...

After a long two days of court naps and having to sit through mean memes, Donald Trump took to Truth Social to throw a tantrum. The former president once again took aim at late-night host Jimmy Kimmel, who on Tuesday, roasted Trump over his clumsy attempt to pass off his alleged hush money payment to Stormy Daniels as a “legal expense” and his struggling Twitter copycat.
Trump revisited Kimmel’s months-old joke about him at the Oscars (a highlight of the ceremony), whilst also confusing the comedian for Oscar-winning actor Al Pacino.
