Predictions are always a hazardous thing. And I truly hope this one is wrong. But it sure looks like the movie box office, disastrously low in September, will be stuck on the bottom again this month.

It was the slap that shook America, and likely what the 2022 Academy Awards will likely be remembered for. While Will Smith will be remembered in infamy for slapping Chirs Rock, he also joined the list of 2022 Oscar winners for his performance in Kind Richard. Now, his next movie, Emancipation, which just released its

Johnny Depp and Amber Heard’s defamation trial may be over, reaching its verdict in favor of Depp back in June, but as you’ve likely read before, it’s not about the destination, but the friends one makes along the way.

It’s been a while since we caught up with Reese Witherspoon’s Elle Woods, but with Legally Blonde 3 happening we’ve been anticipating various reunions between the pretty-in-pink lawyer and her Harvard Law School roots.

In 1994, two years after Quentin Tarantino made his filmmaking debut with Reservoir Dogs, the writer/director delivered an even bigger hit to the masses with Pulp Fiction. Among the movie’s starring actors were Samuel L. Jackson and Uma Thurman, who respectively played Jules Winnfield and Mia Wallace. Nearly three decades after Pulp Fiction’s release, these
Don’t underestimate the second weekend of Paramount’s horror movie Smile. The Parker Finn directed and written title, which has provided many in town that horror remains a bankable genre for the big screen after a $22.6M opening, has a shot of possibly upsetting Sony’s family movie Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile and 20th Century Studios/New Regency/Disney’s upscale
It’s hard for me to believe that there was a day when Dwayne Johnson wasn’t one of the most successful and well-known actors in Hollywood. However, there was when the actor made the jump from wrestling over to acting. He said people wanted him to change and not be himself. Now, after 20 years in
Broadway held fairly steady at the box office last week, with recent arrivals Leopoldstadt and The Piano Lesson leading the pack of fall newcomers with grosses of $758,988 and $704,051, respectively.

Ryan Reynolds has confirmed that Hugh Jackman will reprise his role as Logan a.k.a. Wolverine in “Deadpool 3,” and that raises a lot of questions.

Warning: SPOILERS for Blonde are ahead! There has been a lot of talk about how unsettling the film adaptation of Joyce Carol Oates’ book Blonde has been to watch scene after scene. This historical fiction perception of Marilyn Monroe’s life is about the abuse that was speculated the Hollywood starlet endured. But after months of
A Pulitzer Prize can be a burden, one must assume, trumpeting expectations and pumping reputations from a distance. Martyna Majok‘s Cost of Living won the trophy in 2018, and that victory has been mentioned often in the lead-up to the play’s opening on Broadway tonight in a Manhattan Theatre Club production at the Samuel J.
The personal life of Jennifer Lopez is one that it seems the world will never be tired of hearing about.

UPDATE, writethru: There was a varied offering at the international box office this weekend with newcomers from Hollywood and offshore markets, as well as notable holds, as we inch closer to full-on action later in October.

The Jackass gang has pretty much always seemingly been tight — and they’d pretty much have to be to be, given what they do. They’ve inflicted such devastating pranks on each other (and themselves) dating back to the original show, which ran in the early 2000s. Of course, that team dynamic may have changed amid
Well, that’s that. After all the controversies and badly handled original castings and headlines and backstage bruisings and firings or resignations or whatever they were, Funny Girl is, as so many suspected all along, the musical that Lea Michele was born to lead.

I am of the opinion that there is a good reason this pumpkin-infused season has the nickname Meg Ryan Fall rather than Auteurs’ Autumn, and Reese Witherspoon agrees.
