Ryan Reynolds Rehabs Peleton

Ryan Reynolds and his ad agency pulled together that Peleton ad in response to And Just Like That in only 48 hours. Reynolds did a quick Aviation Gin ad when that cringey holiday Peloton commercial went viral a couple years ago, so it makes sense that they would come to him for some instant brand rehabilitation. (Don’t watch if you’re not caught up with the Sex and the City revival, obvs.)

Tom Holland and Zendaya are super cute here, talking about how they can’t be in the kitchen at the same time because her cooking style is haphazard, while he likes to precisely follow recipes.

Britney Spears posted a bunch of screengrabs of her notes app which contained basically stream of conscious thoughts about hot chocolate and Christmas shopping, but she did make some pointed comments about her infamous 2003 interview with Diane Sawyer.

-I’m not sure what the baby bar exam is, but Kim Kardashian says she passed it.

-God, that Succession finale was so good. I kept thinking about how Kieran Culkin said he and Jeremy Strong disagree about whether the show is a comedy or a drama, and how that scene in the parking lot perfectly embodied that.

-Meanwhile, Jeremy Strong‘s celeb friends keep rushing to “defend” him over that completely innocuous magazine profile. Aaron Sorkin, Adam Mckay and Anne Hathaway weighed in over the weekend, which inadvertently kept it in the news cycle. Are stars really so far removed from the profiles of 10-20 years ago that they think any article that isn’t incredibly fawning is a hit piece? That New Yorker profile did more to humanize Strong than any other interview I’ve read with him. Does everyone in Hollywood forget when celebs weren’t media trained within an inch of their lives, and profiles weren’t just PR fluff pieces? They should all revisit Jennifer Lopez’s 1998 Movieline interview (in which she slams Gwyneth Paltrow, Cameron Diaz, and more) to remember how these things used to go.

-Everyone’s guessing Adam Mckay and Will Ferrell for this blind item, which seems crazy.

-Any movie that isn’t a superhero flick seems to be struggling at the box office (and we are, after all, still in a pandemic) but West Side Story’s returns were bad enough to surprise people.

Armie Hammer’s lawyer told People: “I can confirm that Mr. Hammer has left the treatment facility and is doing great.”

-Insecure’s Natasha Rothwell talked about the rough time she had in the SNL writers’ room, and how she had to raise her hand and ask to speak. Interestingly, the head writer during her tenure would have been Colin Jost.

-HBO Max has announced a third Magic Mike movie with Channing Tatum and Steven Soderbergh. Hmmm. The first MM film (which Soderbergh directed) got better reviews, but I will ride hard for Magic Mike XXL, which he wasn’t involved with. I want a sequel to that one.

Jesse Plemons says that people called him “Meth Damon” after he starred on Breaking Bad, and that’s both cruel and perfect.

-This is a great roundup with Succession’s production crew, from the cinematographer to the costume designer, on how they make the family’s extreme wealth look as miserable as it feels. “Their environs aren’t gilded or garish, but they ARE soulless, so devoid of texture and mess as to seem slightly inhuman.”

-Reshoots on big superhero movies aren’t unusual, but sources tell THR that Benedict Cumberbatch and company are undertaking six weeks of filming, if not more, working six days a week on “significant” reshoots for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

-This is a great piece on how Dawson Leery walked so You’s Joe Goldberg could run.
