Steven Spielberg took the stage at CinemaCon for the first time in his career to promote his upcoming Universal release, Disclosure Day. After an introduction from star Colman Domingo, the filmmaker received rapturous applause from the annual convention of movie theater owners in Las Vegas on Wednesday. Spielberg accepted the Motion Picture Association’s America250 Award from the group’s chair, Charles Rivkin, in celebration of the director’s work that embraces the nation’s wonders. “I haven’t done a Western yet — that’s next,” the 79-year-old director said. He noted that his first CinemaCon stage appearance had been great: “This will not be…
So-called “looksmaxxing” influencer Clavicular is speaking out after a terrifying and very public health scare — and even by the internet’s often chaotic standards, this one is impossible to ignore. The 20-year-old content creator, whose real name is Braden Peters, resurfaced on Wednesday on social media with a deeply unsettling update following hours after what multiple outlets have reported as a suspected overdose. Posting a selfie to X (formerly Twitter), Peters showed a bloodied face and a shaken demeanor, offering fans a glimpse into just how serious the situation had become. Along with it, he wrote: “Just got home, that…
Forget peekaboo cutouts and thigh-high slits — celebs are all about showing some serious skin on the red carpet. Wearing outfits with expertly placed floral appliqués, lace in just the right place, or deciding to simply free the nipple has been going on for years. Take Rihanna, for example. The mom-to-be made a splash at the CFDA Fashion Awards in 2014 when she arrived in an Adam Selman sheer gown — sans a bra. Such was the case for Zoë Kravitz at the 2021 Met Gala. The actress wore a see-through Yves Saint Laurent gown made of mesh. While she…
A federal jury in New York delivered a landmark decision on Wednesday, determining that Live Nation Entertainment and its subsidiary Ticketmaster maintained an illegal monopoly over the live music industry according to CNN. The ruling validates long-standing concerns that the company’s extensive control over concert promotion, venue operations, and ticketing services has suppressed competition, inflated costs for fans, and limited options for artists and smaller venues across the country. The verdict emerged after weeks of testimony in a civil antitrust trial brought by a coalition of more than two dozen states. These states proceeded independently even after the U.S. Justice…
The advent of artificial intelligence is already changing the way that major motion pictures are made and marketed. But the still-evolving possibilities of AI-assisted performances — or AI-generated actors — could have a major impact on the awards circuit as well as voters and moviegoers alike wrestle with both the potential, and the problems, of blending technology with art. One early test case for how far might be too far for the Academy’s voting body is As Deep as the Grave, a new Western from sibling filmmakers Coerte and John Voorhees. When the duo started production on the film in…
In Alex Garland’s 2024 thriller Civil War, reporters and photojournalists travel throughout America as the nation stands on the brink of civil war. The film is an unflinching look at the fragility of democracy and at the people caught in the middle of conflict. The war drama was positively received by critics and viewers, praised for its realistic depiction of a nation in decline. The film came at a time when the country stood divided, and two years later, little has changed. This could be why it is still resonating with viewers. Streaming data from FlixPatrol shows that Civil War…
It’s fascinating that, after barely being on TV over the last 40+ years, Michelle Pfeiffer is starring in two very different TV projects in rapid succession. But they both show the range of what she’s capable of, from the contemplative drama of The Madison to the more brash role of Shyanne in the Apple TV series Margo’s Got Money Troubles. Opening Shot: A girl is playing with “dolls”, which are actually wrestling action figures. The Gist: Margo Millet (Elle Fanning) was an only child, and because she played by herself a lot, she developed a vivid imagination, which led to…
One of the — if not the No. 1 — most anticipated movies of the year arrived at CinemaCon on Wednesday, as Christopher Nolan showed off some new footage from The Odyssey during Universal’s presentation. Following a compilation video of his past work, the filmmaker took the stage to a standing ovation, joking he was glad not to be following Steven Spielberg. He mused, “Why The Odyssey? It’s a story that has fascinated generation after generation for 3,000 years; it’s not a story, but the story. I wanted to grab the exciting opportunity of bringing it to a modern cinema…
