Produced in secret, shot by amateur citizens, and released without warning last week, “Coronation” confronts the paradoxes of China’s coronavirus response in fragments of angry residents, eerie medical processes, and a whole lot of red tape.

Since first making her name in classics like “The Godfather” and “Annie Hall,” the actress has carved out her niche as Hollywood’s go-to for charming goofballs, practically trademarking her scattered earnestness and bubbly lilt. While it’s intriguing to imagine those ineffable Keaton qualities mapped onto a power hungry witch or maniacal killer, her latest role is much more in her wheelhouse. In “Mack & Rita,” a new comedy from director and actress Katie Aselton (“The Freebie”), Elizabeth Lail plays a 30-something who gets trapped in the body of a 70-something (Keaton, of course) after attending a new age-y “past life regression” ritual in Palm Springs....

With Kornél Mundruczó’s “Pieces of a Woman,” she read the script by Hungarian playwright/screenwriter Kata Wéber, who drew upon her own silent reaction to a miscarriage.

Elon Musk Partner Says Neuralink Could Build Real Life Jurassic Park

“We could probably build jurassic park if we wanted to. wouldn’t be genetically authentic dinosaurs but 🤷‍♂️. maybe 15 years of breeding + engineering to get super exotic novel species,” Hodak wrote on Twitter.

Emily Vancamp Laughs Off Mcu Backlash Over Captain America Kiss

“There was quite a bit of backlash about that,” VanCamp told Variety about the Sharon-Steve kiss. “With Sharon, it was always trying to fit her in and these movies are just too big, and it’s completely understandable. To get to see who she’s become over this long period of time, and independent of Captain America as we know him, is really interesting to me. The intrigue for me was to see who is Sharon now....
