Marc Maron Left James Cameron S Avatar Audition Thinking Wtf

“He had me come down there to audition for something, to look at me for something,” Maron said. “I had to go down there to that city he built, the ‘Avatar’ city and it was the weirdest thing. I walk in and he was like, ‘We’ve got actors in here working all the time, flying around and stuff. So if you want to come into a set and we’ll just do it....

Matrix Resurrections On Hbo Max Keanu Reeves Is Fine If You Stream It

Well, “The Matrix Resurrections” star Keanu Reeves isn’t as passionate about the matter. As revealed in a new interview with The Guardian, the actor is perfectly fine with audiences streaming the movie. After the interviewer implied they were going to watch the movie on their laptop, Reeves said, “Dude? Don’t stream that movie… Don’t you fucking stream that movie.” But this turned out to be a poker-faced joke, as Reeves ultimately said, “I mean, sure, stream it if you have to....

Megan Ellison Slams Scott Rudin S Abusive Racist Sexist Behavior

“This [THR] piece barely scratches the surface of Scott Rudin’s abusive, racist, and sexist behavior,” Ellison wrote on Twitter (see the post embedded below). “Similarly to Harvey [Weinstein], too many are afraid to speak out. I support and applaud those who did. There’s good reason to be afraid because he’s vindictive and has no qualms about lying.” Ellison is no stranger to working with Weinstein either, as she served as a producer on Weinstein Company-released titles “Lawless,” “The Master,” and “Killing Them Softly....

Michael Cera Explains Oddball Appeal Of Life Beth Character Q A

Cera, who’s made a successful career playing the sweet and low-key underdog in cult classic comedies like 2007’s “Superbad” and 2010’s “Scott Pilgrim vs The World,” brings similar sensibilities to the role of John, a farmer and chef who challenges Beth (Schumer) in ways that bring about change in both her personal and professional life. But Beth and John’s romantic journey is complicated by what seems to be a lack of social cues and aloofness from John, but Cera believes that audiences will relate his character: “Sometimes he gets stuck on something like a thought or a piece of logic that the conversation gets sort of stalled out on....

Michelle Pfeiffer Rejected Silence Of The Lambs Because It S Too Evil

“With ‘Silence of the Lambs,’ I was trepidatious,” Pfeiffer said. “There was such evil in that film. The thing I most regret is missing the opportunity to do another film with Jonathan [Demme]. It was that evil won in the end, that at the end of that film evil ruled out. I was uncomfortable with that ending. I didn’t want to put that out into the world.” Pfeiffer turned down the chance to play Clarice Starling, opening the door for Jodie Foster to the play the character....

Ms Marvel Showrunner Bisha K Ali On Telling One Family S Story

“That comes from many of the people involved in the creative process being from either a Pakistani background or Muslim background — they could directly relate to or were open to learning,” head writer and showrunner Bisha K. Ali told IndieWire. “So all of that felt very natural as we were writing it, as I was putting it all together. The fact that it came out the way it did is a testament to that creative team behind it....

Mulan Memes Controversy Sparked By Agnes Chow Hong Kong Arrest

The arrest, which was part of a crackdown on pro-democracy supporters in Hong Kong as part of China’s controversial new security law, also resurfaced comments made last August by live-action “Mulan” star Liu Yifei. She was quoted as saying “I support the Hong Kong police, you all can beat me up now” in response to Hong Kong’s excessive force in handling protesters. While Chinese citizens offered support for Liu Yifei, pro-democracy fighters began calling for a boycott — a plea now reignited by Chow’s arrest....
