Pamela Anderson

Ben Affleck and Ana de Armas Are in Deep

-Here’s the trailer for Ben Affleck and Ana de Armas’ Hulu film, Deep Water, which starts streaming next week. The more they try to bury this thing, the more I want to watch it.

-It looks like Shailene Woodley and Aaron Rodgers are still together. They attended a wedding over the weekend.

–Kanye West defended his latest music video, in which he depicts Pete Davidson being buried alive, by posting, “Art is therapy just like this view. art is protected as freedom of speech. art inspires and simplifies the world. Art is not a proxy for any ill or harm. Any suggestion otherwise about my art is false and mal intended.” Uh huh.

-When asked about the rumours that she feuded with Euphoria creator Sam Levinson and that’s why her character was barely in the last season, Barbie Ferreira said a lot of words that didn’t really add up to a clear answer.

-I’m so happy that Simon Rex won Best Actor at the Independent Spirit Awards. In other categories, CODA’s Troy Kotsur and Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Lost Daughter continued to build Oscar momentum.

–Gigi Hadid will be donating everything she made during fashion week to Ukrainian relief and continuing her support of Palestine.

-Uh oh, has Daniel Kaluuya fallen under the thrall of a life coach who encouraged him to fire his agents at CAA and his publicist? This article is so messed up.

–Pamela Anderson‘s resurgence continues; she will make her Broadway debut in Chicago next month, playing Roxie Hart.

–Dua Lipa is facing a second copyright lawsuit over her hit song “Levitating.”

-The reviews for Pixar’s Turning Red, which is set in Toronto, are glowing. I don’t get why this is being pushed straight to Disney+.

-The Walking Dead is growing to a fifth spinoff: Lauren Cohan and Jeffery Dean Morgan will star in Isle of the Dead for AMC in 2023. It’s been a while since I’ve watched anything to do with TWD, but aren’t Negan and Maggie mortal enemies?

-The weakest actor in The Gilded Age is Meryl Streep‘s daughter, but at least she tells cute stories about her mom.

–Colin Farrell and Kelly Clarkson have a lot of manic energy in this interview and I love it.

Vulture asks the right question: Instead of spending time and money to make Colin Farrell look like a middle-aged Italian American in The Batman, why not just cast one of these character actors instead?

-Speaking of Batman casting, Zoe Kravitz says she was told she was too “urban” to audition for The Dark Knight.

–Russian Doll Season 2 premieres April 20 on Netflix with seven new, half hour episodes. Here’s a trailer.

Maggie Gyllenhaal Embraces Silence

Maggie-Gyllenhaal-The-Lost-Daughter-W magazing

-The Lost Daughter is one of the few Oscar noms that feels like it’s been widely seen (the Netflix effect, I guess). The film’s helmer Maggie Gyllenhaal covers W magazine’s Directors Issue, and talks about the choices she made in adapting Elena Ferrante‘s novel. “The challenge of the book was very much like breaking a scene down as an actor. You have a text and you’re like, Okay, these are the words, but what is the underlying, more interesting event of the scene, and how can you articulate that cinematically without ever saying it out loud?” (The accompanying noir-inspired photo shoot includes her husband, Peter Sarsgaard.)

-Hurray for Kim Kardashian, who is now legally single one year after filing for divorce from Kanye West.

-Euphoria star Sydney Sweeney is engaged to her boyfriend of 3 years, restaurateur Jonathan Davino. (Also, this article made me realize that she played Nick’s wife on The Handmaid’s Tale and my mind is blown.)

-Speaking of Sweeney, I’m surprised she’s not in the running to play Madonna in the upcoming biopic. Instead, her Euphoria costar Alexa Demie is, along with Julia Garner, Florence Pugh, Odessa Young, Emma Laird, Bebe Rexha and Sky Ferreira. According to THR, some hopefuls are even participating in 11-hour choreography sessions called “Madonna bootcamp“.

–Zoe Kravitz continues to wear on-the-nose, gimmicky dresses to The Batman premieres, and she continues to somehow make it work. I also really dig Robert Pattinson‘s look here.

-I won’t be convinced that Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet have reunited until People reports it, but I understand the excitement surrounding the rumours.

–Sean Penn says he “walked miles to the Polish border after abandoning our car on the side of the road” while filming a documentary for Vice on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

-I wish this sketch about white dudes who podcast wasn’t cut from John Mulaney‘s SNL episode.

–Jennifer Garner and Mark Ruffalo are back together and playing a couple in Netflix’s The Adam Project, and on the press tour they said they are open to a 13 Going on 30 sequel. God, yes!

–Lindsay Lohan has teamed with Netflix for two more movies, which bodes well for the holiday one she just shot.

–Marilyn Manson is suing his former fiancée Evan Rachel Wood and the artist Illma Gore, accusing them of concocting an elaborate ‘conspiracy’ to cast him as ‘a rapist and abuser.’

-Netflix announced a new documentary about Pamela Anderson, already in production for several years, in which she is “setting the record straight as she looks back on her professional path and her personal journey.” I’m glad she gets to tell her story after Pam & Tommy tried to do it for her.

-So it seems like the controversial changes the Oscars are making this year, including presenting eight Oscar categories differently than the other 15, were pushed by ABC, not the Academy.

-It’ll be interesting to see if Disney+ cleans up the Netflix Marvel shows before they stream them. Disney bumped Love, Victor to Hulu because it was too risqué for their platform, so I can’t imagine them being cool with the bed-breaking sex scene between Jessica Jones and Luke Cage.

-I really liked this piece about Better Things’ final season and what made the show so special. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen another series that’s so loose and immersive, but this sums it up perfectly: “A person doesn’t watch the show so much as drop by Sam’s big cozy house for a visit.”

–Gary Oldman and Kristin Scott Thomas lead a group of spies looking for redemption in Apple TV’s Slow Horses trailer.

–Regina Hall stars in the eerie trailer for Mariama Diallo‘s Master, which follows three Black women’s experience at a predominately white university.

-Here’s the first full Bullet Train trailer, in which Brad Pitt leads an ensemble cast of assassins made up of Bad Bunny, Joey King, Hiroyuki Sanada, Michael Shannon, and more.

Bridgerton Cast Spills the Regency Tea

-I devoured EW’s feature on the new season of Bridgerton, videos and all. I need it nowwwwwww!

–Gwyneth Paltrow‘s house is featured in Architectural Digest, and every time I look I see something new/weird. The hand-painted wallpaper! The ridiculously large oven hood! The fact that she’s barefoot and her husband wears shoes!

–Kim Kardashian is firing back at her ex-husband Kanye West after he publicly blasted the reality star about allowing their 8-year-old daughter to post on TikTok “against my will.” She posted on Instagram Stories, “Kanye’s constant attacks on me in interviews and on social media is actually more hurtful than any TikTok North might create.”

–Megan Fox isn’t the only one who’s moved on. Brian Austin Green is expecting a baby with girlfriend Sharna Burgess.

-Succession’s Jeremy Strong hanging out with rapper Big Sean just feels right.

–Ken Jeong and Robin Thicke have returned to the The Masked Singer after reportedly walking off set last week after a controversial guest was unmasked during a taping. (Click the link only if you don’t care about spoilers.)

–Sarah Jessica Parker explained why she wouldn’t be cool with Kim Cattrall joining the SATC revival. “I don’t think I would [be ok with it], because I think there’s just too much public history of feelings on her part that she’s shared…We didn’t go to Kim for this, you know. After we didn’t do the movie and the studio couldn’t meet what she wanted to do, we have to hear her and listen to her and what was important to her. It didn’t fit into what was important or needed for us.” She added, “There’s a very distinct line between Samantha and Kim. Samantha’s not gone. Samantha’s present, and I think was handled with such respect and elegance. She wasn’t villainized. She was a human being who had feelings about a relationship, so I think we found a way to address it which was necessary and important for people that loved her.”

-Meanwhile, poor Sara Ramirez had to address the negative responses to their character on And Just Like That. “I’m very aware of the hate that exists online, but I have to protect my own mental health and my own artistry. We have built a character who is a human being, who is imperfect, who is complex and who is not here to be liked…I’m also not in control of the writing.”

–Dua Lipa asked Stephen Colbert about his faith, and for an off-the-cuff answer, it was pretty great.

-Congrats to James McAvoy, who wed his long-time girlfriend, Lisa Liberati.

–Halsey is making their acting debut in a new film titled National Anthem alongside Euphoria’s Sydney Sweeney.

-No surprise here: HBO has renewed Euphoria for season 3.

–Pamela Anderson is reportedly re-traumatized by Hulu’s Pam & Tommy, which she did not consent to. This piece makes a good point: “[The sex tape was] stolen and distributed at great profit to various men. And the story of that piracy is now being sold as a TV series… at great profit to the team who made it. Without the consent of the woman at its center.”

-Also, the show focuses on the time period surrounding the release of the tape, completely ignoring the reports of abuse later on in their relationship.

-Netflix’s amazingly named Tinder Swindler documentary is picking up so much steam, there’s talk about turning it into a movie.

–Seth Rogan reacting to his mom’s tweets about sex is perfect content.

-It looks like the rumours about Shia LaBeouf and ex-wife Mia Goth expecting a baby are true.

-This is a great piece about the surprise popularity of CBS’s Ghosts.

-CODA’ star Troy Kotsur’s reaction to his BAFTA nomination was hilarious. He deserves it.

-Speaking of the BAFTA nods, Kristen Stewart‘s Spencer continues to lose steam.

-This is fun: David Lynch has joined the cast of Steven Spielberg’s The Fabelmans.

-Here’s our first look at Nicole Kidman and Cynthia Erivo in Apple TV’s Roar, which also stars Alison Brie, Betty Gilpin, Issa Rae and Merritt Wever.

-And here’s our first look at Conversations with Friends, the latest adaptation from Normal People’s Sally Rooney.

-A sixth installment in the Scream franchise is officially on the way, with the creative team behind the 2022 hit set to return,

-And now that thing with Renee Zellweger in a fat suit has a trailer. Sigh.

–Samuel L. Jackson fights for his memories in Last Days of Ptolemy Grey trailer.
