Reverse Engineering Disney S Cruella For Emma Stone S Punk Look

“They stand on their own,” she said. “I wanted to believe our Cruella 15 years later becomes the Glenn Close version that we know. And because we’re an origin story, and we start with this girl who’s finding her way and finding her fashion, it’s believable that she’s playing with all those looks in hair and makeup and costumes, and eventually will become the sculptured look that Cruella is.” Having already worked with Stone on “The Favourite,” Stacey knew what worked on her face and didn’t, and the actress trusted her with all the wild variations for Cruella (anchored by an assortment of two-toned wigs)....

Shining Girls Jamie Bell Didn T Want To Glamorize Harper

Bell spoke to IndieWire via Zoom this week and clarified that, in Lauren Beukes’ novel, the character of Harper was more of a charmer. “He’s described as handsome and has like slicked hair,” said Bell.

Simu Liu Defends Acting With Mark Wahlberg Despite Assault History

“I deleted a couple of tweets I made regarding the past actions of one of my costars as a gesture of professionalism and to open to door to progressive conversations and (hopefully) positive change,” Liu wrote. “Obviously it’d be pretty weird to go to work with that tweet still up. I meant what I said in the moment; I was very angry hearing about what happened. But that doesn’t mean I don’t think there’s room to grow and work together to find an opportunity to educate and do some good, which I’m excited to do in addition to shooting the movie....
