Peter Dinklage Game Of Thrones Was Hardest Thing To Walk Away From

While paying a visit to “The Graham Norton Show” on New Year’s Eve (via Insider), Dinklage agreed that it was a “relief,” when asked by the host, when the eight-episode series ended. Dinklage won a Primetime Emmy Award for best supporting actor four times for his role as Tyrion Lannister. “Yeah,” Dinklage said. “I mean, it’s time to move on, as hard as it is.” He added that while, on most projects, a cast forms close relationships and “then you don’t see each other again,” but in the case of “Game of Thrones,” the cast was a “family....

Sam Neill Beat Depression With Short Films

With the pandemic, that struggle took on a global scale when Universal shut down “Jurassic World: Dominion” a few weeks into production. Neill returned to his New Zealand vineyard, Two Paddocks, which sounds like a bucolic retreat — but sent the actor into a panic. “Right now, I’m in a terrible limbo,” he told a journalist. “My life in acting was always a counterbalance to my life on the farm. One was the palliative to the other....

Sean Astin Lord Of The Rings Original Marketing Failed The Movie

“The Cannes Film Festival showed what we knew, that the film was spectacular and we had created something that would stand the test of time,” said Astin, who starred in all three “Rings” films as Samwise Gamgee. “It filtered up, down, and all around. I remember the initial marketing campaign sort of missed the mark, treated it as kind of a ‘Dungeons & Dragons’ thematic approach and missed the classical feel....

Seinfeld Netflix Aspect Ratio Ires Fans Pothole Cropped Out

As legacy series make their transition to streaming platforms, the aspect ratio of it all continues to be an issue for viewers. When “The Simpsons” plopped on Disney+ back in November 2019, the cropping to fit standard-sized televisions obscured some of the show’s best visual jokes. The pothole is obviously, well, crucial in the “Seinfeld” episode “The Pothole,” which is one of the series’ most appreciated episodes. It also features “Sex and the City” star Kristin Davis as Jerry’s girlfriend du jour, whose toothbrush falls in the toilet and leaves Jerry in a serious pickle as to whether to ever kiss her again....

It didn’t go super well? I mean, Harry and Meghan seem fine. Baby No. 2 is on the way! They got one of those gonzo nine-figure Netflix deals!

They have a sweet house in Montecito, California, down the street from the smart and effervescent Oprah Winfrey, who was a guest at their wedding!

We Are The Brooklyn Saints Netflix Documentary Is More Than Football

“I knew early on that I didn’t want it to be, ‘Episode 1: Game 1. Let’s see, if they win or lose.’ I think that this is more a look at a football organization and the people involved in it, and how they interact with each other, the essence of who they are as people,” series director Rudy Valdez said. “I don’t want to always find that kid or that character or that person who is the super-duper unique story that’s a one in a million....
