Appearing for an interview on “The Jess Cagle Show” on SiriusXM, Leto heaped praise on his co-star Al Pacino, whom he called “one of the world’s greatest actors.” Pacino plays Aldo Gucci, Paolo’s embattled father, and the strained father-son relationship is one of the film’s key storylines. Leto thinks there is even more to that relationship — and wants to explore it in a prequel film with Pacino. He even has a title in mind....
The creator of the wildly popular Disney+ series and “The Mandalorian” star Pedro Pascal recently spoke to Variety about the Star Wars show’s upcoming second season, which will premiere on the streaming service on October 30. The duo discussed a variety of topics, including the possibility of a “The Mandalorian” feature film.

After an inauspicious introduction in last week’s end credits, our new, true God of Mischief by and large got his due recognition during Episode 5. Whether he was drinking wine out of a kiddie pool or biting off the hand that did, in turn, feed him, Loki left an indelible mark on the week’s events, and we can only pray he finds a way to survive next week’s finale. I’m talking, of course, about Alligator Loki....
The network announced plans for a documentary about C.K. after he stepped away from projects in 2017 following multiple allegations of sexual misconduct. The “Louie” creator recently won his third Grammy for a 2020 self-released comedy special “Sincerely, Louis C.K.” and debuted the film “Fourth of July” earlier this summer. “Louis C.K. is a slightly different situation [compared to Harvey Weinstein],” Showtime CEo, Paramount+ chief content officer, and Paramount TV head of scripted originals David Nevins said during the Edinburgh TV Festival in Scotland, as reported by Variety....
