Once Hollywood’s favorite couple, Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston exuded charm and charisma. Their bond was out of a fairy tale, and fans were obsessed with the stunning pair. This is why when news of their separation came out in 2005, everyone was shocked.
The Fight Club actor then seemed to move on with Angelina Jolie, and they became the It couple of Tinseltown. But the media speculated foul play, and soon rumors of an alleged affair began to rise. Though both the actors denied the claims, Aniston’s Friends co-star vehemently denied it and even defended Pitt publicly.

The tragedy of being the most successful person on a job is that all eyes are trained on the star. For celebrities and filmmakers, that attention and scrutiny increases tenfold due to the nature of their profession. When it comes to Hollywood in the 1990s, Julia Roberts happened to be the most in-demand A-lister after the actress’s interminable acclaim after Pretty Woman.

Soon after, Roberts’ magical reputation spread like wildfire across Hollywood with filmmakers wanting to work with her in every upcoming project. Fortunately for her, the release of Pretty Woman in 1990 was immediately followed by a role opening up in Steven Spielberg’s Disney fantasy adventure film, Hook. What happened soon after would go on to be the stuff of legends.

Brad Pitt’s Hollywood presence has become synonymous with controversy. The Fight Club actor has left a lasting mark on pop culture with his work in the film industry and continues to do so at present. However, all formalities aside, Pitt has yet to adapt to post-divorce life in L.A. for one tragic reason.

After decades of living with Angelina Jolie and co-parenting a family of 6 children, it not only came off as hurtful but shocking to learn that 4 of them are officially removing Pitt from their surnames. After the Jolie-Pitt children further refused to reconcile their broken relationship, the A-lister had no choice but to face the demons of his past.

You know how certain movies simply leave a lasting impression on you? You watch them at one point and they stick with you for many years later, as you go over the scenes, the dialogues, the acting, the technical aspects, the messages… everything, just thinking how brilliant these works are and how many times you can revisit them.
Some of these films might be subjectively important to you, but a lot of them will be true classics, from an objective and historical standpoint, that have impacted the history of cinema in a significant way. There are many such movies, but when compared to the total number of movies ever produced, they are but a small fragment.

Having been in the industry for several decades, Brad Pitt has truly earned his place among Hollywood’s most notable actors. He has been praised for critically acclaimed performances, and box office hits and has received numerous awards. However, this was not always the case with him; his dreams were not always as big.
In an interview some years back, the Fight Club star disclosed that his primary inspiration was Kevin Costner. Pitt desired to follow in the footsteps of the man known for making meaningful films. There were other things he wanted to accomplish as an artist worth mentioning, but becoming as respected as Costner was his main goal.

The list of successful actors in the industry is long; Brad Pitt is one of them. He has received two Academy Awards, two British Academy Film Awards, two Golden Globe Awards, and a Primetime Emmy Award.

Helena Bonham Carter is a name synonymous with eccentricity, bold outfits, and a penchant for quirky roles. But her personal life, too, has been no less dramatic, filled with its own twists and turns. One particularly colorful chapter began in 1994 when she became romantically involved with Kenneth Branagh on the set of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein.

But wait…this was a classic love triangle. Well, Branagh was still married to Emma Thompson at the time. The affair concluded not only in significant emotional upheaval for the Harry Potter actress but ultimately led to the end of her marriage in 1995.
Thompson, however, being the high road-taker extraordinaire, later stated in a 2013 interview that she’s no longer interested in revisiting old conflicts as she made peace with Bonham Carter long ago.

Brad Pitt has always been a hottie, and it seems like even his constantly aging self isn’t downing his handsomeness by any margin. Even at the age of 60, the actor is managing to look as dashing as ever, leaving fans and paparazzi baffled at just how he seems to be aging backward – just like his iconic character Benjamin Button from 2008’s The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.

That said, there had also been speculation that Pitt had perhaps gone under the knife to regain his youth via facelifting or other surgery methods. But while a renowned aesthetics doctor supported these claims with evidential arguments, one of the actor’s recently resurfaced old statements delivered through an inspiring mindset puts a big question mark on these rumors.

Charlie Sheen and Brad Pitt are some of the most recognizable names in Hollywood, both celebrated for their charisma and acting prowess. However, apart from their Hollywood status, the two stars have also a little-known connection from their early careers, when Pitt’s encounter with one of Sheen’s friends transformed his trajectory forever.

Brad Pitt appeared at the 81st Venice International Film Festival to promote his film Wolfs along with his girlfriend, Ines de Ramon. According to sources, Ramon moved into Pitt’s home earlier this year and their relationship is going strong. Interestingly, Pitt’s ex-wife Angelina Jolie also had a movie premiere at the Venice Film Festival but reportedly left before Pitt arrived at the festival.

Pitt’s appearance alongside new girlfriend almost reminds fans of the time when the Fight Club star arrived at the festival 17 years ago with then-new-girlfriend Jolie. People were just getting used to seeing them as a couple at the time after the relationship allegedly broke up his marriage to Jennifer Aniston.

Brad Pitt and George Clooney hugged and danced at the Venice Film Festival on Sunday night as the two megastars’ latest film, “Wolfs,” received a polite four-minute standing ovation.
The premiere itself was delayed by more than 30 minutes as fans crowded into Venice’s Sala Grande in an attempt to catch a glimpse at Pitt and Clooney. When the duo finally arrived inside, the sound — and general vibe — in the theater could only be described as carnal. Both actors took to different sides of the carpet, signing autographs and taking selfies, before being whisked away to their seats by security.
As the two stars entered the theater, they greeted the eager crowd with a booming “Buonasera!,” prompting some fans to shout back in hopes of being noticed. Even as the film began rolling, the chaos continued, with those without tickets scrambling to find any empty seats. Some were ejected during...

Two of Hollywood’s biggest stars, George Clooney and Brad Pitt have teamed up to star in an upcoming action comedy titled, Wolfs. The actors would be portraying professional fixers hired to cover up a major crime, forcing the two lone wolves to work together. Several news outlets have started releasing rumors about the new movie, but one statement caused the actor himself to respond.
The movie premiered out of competition at the Venice Film Festival, and Clooney utilized the platform to address one viral rumor about the film. Referring to the absurd claim of the lead actors receiving $35 million each as salary, the Insomnia actor stated it was exaggerated. He claimed their actual pay was way less, and the rumor could cause serious harm to show business.

George Clooney has commented for the first time on his New York Times op-ed asking Joe Biden to drop out of the presidential race.
“I’ve actually never had to answer that question so I suppose I will do it here,” Clooney said when asked about it at the Venice press conference for his new film “Wolfs.”
“The person who should be applauded is the president, who has done the most selfless thing a president has done since George Washington,” he said, adding: “What should be remembered is the selfless act of someone who, it’s very hard to let go of power — we know that, we’ve seen it all over the world — and for someone to say I think there’s a better path forward, all the credit goes to him.

Stars: Charlotte Kirk, Phillip Winchester, Stephanie Beacham, Colm Meany, Sean Pertwee | Written and Directed by Neil Marshall
A young crook known as Duchess (Charlotte Kirk) gets involved with the nefarious Robert (Phillip Winchester) and the underworld of diamond trafficking. Her wrong turns take her halfway across the world, and she ends up being left for dead when a deal quickly goes wrong. Duchess is quick to try and seek retribution, and that means taking everyone on.
The good thing — “thing,” not “things” — about Duchess is even just by watching the trailer, seeing a poster, or reading the cast list, you know exactly what type of movie you’re going to get. Unfortunately, that type is fairly unsavoury. Forget any Guy Ritchie film, Fight Club, or Layer Cake, this time, it’s never been a worse thing to be British.

1999 is widely considered to be one of the best years in cinema history. Truthfully, 25 years later, it's not remotely hard to see why. It saw the release of groundbreaking films like "The Matrix," which remains one of the most important sci-fi hits ever made. The likes of "Star Wars: The Phantom Menace," "Toy Story 2," "The Blair Witch Project," "American Pie," "Sleepy Hollow," "Deep Blue Sea," "Eyes Wide Shut," "Fight Club," "The Mummy," and so much more. It's an embarrassment of riches.
Unfortunately, even the best year is going to have its share of misfires. As far as 1999 goes, the biggest misfire of them all (at least by reputation) is unquestionably "The 13th Warrior." Directed by John McTiernan, of "Die Hard" and "Predator" fame,...

David Fincher has firmly established himself as a master of blending art and commerce. It’s especially impressive considering his output has been uniformly dark, moody and disturbing, with flashes of wit and satire thrown in. Let’s take a look back at all 12 of his films, ranked worst to best.
Born in 1962, Fincher cut his teeth at special effects house Industrial Light and Magic, working on such films as “Star Wars: The Return of the Jedi” (1983) and “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom” (1984). He left to pursue a career in directing, making his mark with a commercial for the American Cancer Society that depicted a fetus smoking a cigarette. He co-founded Propaganda Films, a production house for music videos and commercials that employed future filmmakers Spike Jonze, Michael Bay, Antoine Fuqua, Alex Proyas, Mark Romanek, Zach Snyder and Gore Verbinski.

That’s always been an ongoing discussion. "I absolutely did not write the movie with a sequel in mind. But it was very fun to make, so I don’t know, I think you let the audience decide if they want to see more."Jon relished the experience of working with George, 63, and Brad, 60.The director revealed that he particularly admires their versatility as actors, which allows them to switch between different genres and characters.

Hollywood’s creeping ketamine habit might have carried on quietly for years, were it not for the death of Matthew Perry. But unlike many celebrities’ high-profile struggles with opiates, cocaine and alcohol, even the most desperate ketamine-dependency cases – and the “Friends” star’s was certainly one – have been consigned to the shadows.
Overdose deaths from ketamine alone are extremely rare, experts say, and no national fatality statistics exist. And yet Perry’s fast ride to deep dependency — an indictment said he shot up six to eight times on the day of his death – was a shock to many.
“That’s a lot of ketamine,” Mike Diamond, an addiction recovery expert who appears on A&e’s “Intervention,” told TheWrap. “I don’t know of anyone that’s died of ketamine – personally. But I wouldn’t want to be lying in a hot tub if I was using drugs.”

Prior to getting romantically involved with Brad Pitt, and becoming a mother, Angelina Jolie was known to do wild things at times. Take for example her memorable pool dive after winning the 1999 Golden Globe Awards. Apparently, after winning the accolade, Jolie gleefully jumped into the Beverly Hilton pool, disregarding her designer dress.

Steven Spielberg’s fourth Indiana Jones film cast one actor famous for his art film roles, but the director may never call him back for another work. Shia Labeouf publicly bashed Spielberg for the film, which is one among the many controversies surrounding him. However, Brad Pitt has only great things to say about the Transformers actor.

Almost 23 years ago, David Fincher released a film that even he was not confident would succeed. The movie included such violent, gory, and disturbing scenes that audiences would flee the hall in abhorrence. Ultimately, the movie tanked at the box office, but shockingly, the makers and actors were still satisfied.
Fight Club was released in 1999 and is now regarded as one of the must-watch movies. It’s mature themes, explicit language, and uncomfortable topics were not something that the older generation could swallow. But the actors and filmmakers buckled up to show their creative genius, irrespective of the hate they received. Lead actor Brad Pitt thinks the reception they got from the ‘Baby Boomers’ was justified.

David Fincher is known for his impeccable attention to detail and technical precision. Hence, when actress Rooney Mara was being considered for the role of Lisbeth Salander in the film The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Fincher reportedly gave her a ‘laundry list’ of things she should prepare for.
Mara was unrecognizable as the anti-social hacker Lisbeth who crossed paths with Daniel Craig’s Mikael Blomkvist. The actress reportedly beat many potential candidates such as Scarlett Johansson, Emma Watson, Sarah Snook, and Elliot Page among others.

David Fincher is done fighting over Fight Club. The iconic director has heard it all: Tyler Durden is a symbol of toxic masculinity, a racist, a misogynist—the list goes on. But now, Fincher is stepping into the ring himself to defend the character he helped bring to life. Brad Pitt’s portrayal of the anarchic anti-hero may have been embraced by rebellious souls everywhere, but critics have taken a much darker view.

Fincher, however, sees Durden differently. To him, Tyler’s not a role model, but a cautionary tale—one that’s been misinterpreted by those who missed the point. In true Fight Club fashion, Fincher’s ready to take on anyone who dares to call his creation a villain.

While terrorizing young audiences with her role as Red Queen in Alice in Wonderland (2010), Helena Bonham Carter also played the diabolically dark witch Bellatrix Lestrange in the Harry Potter films. Considering how evil her role was in the billion-dollar franchise, Carter left an indelible mark on audiences as a Death Eater.

There’s no denying that Brad Pitt got to explore many facets of his film career. He got to be in big blockbusters with movies like Troy, Fight Club and the Ocean’s Eleven franchise. He got to be in more independent, director-driven films with Babel and The Tree of Life. He got to be in movies that satisfied both categories like his Tarantino outings, Inglourious Basterds and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. He even got to be in a Marvel film as a superhero with the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it cameo in Deadpool 2.
Pitt reunites with his Ocean’s co-star George Clooney in the upcoming Jon Watts crime comedy film Wolfs and in a recent GQ interview, he admits he feels like his movie career may be on its “last leg.” According to The Hollywood Reporter, Pitt explained, “I meant that as seasons. You know, there was moving out from the safety of the Ozarks.

Back in the early 1990s and the early 2000s, Sarah Michelle Gellar was one of the only female actresses that loved to kick some butt on-screen. From seductive to comedic roles, Gellar has done it all.

“What’s in the box?” The very fact that you just heard Brad Pitt‘s unique delivery in your head demonstrates how iconic that line has become. The question and reveal brought David Fincher‘s unrelentingly bleak crime thriller, Seven, to a head (sorry) and confirmed a hopelessly despairing worldview.
The box, of course, contained the severed head of Tracy (Gwyneth Paltrow), the sweet wife to Pitt’s detective David. The disembodying is the final move by the serial killer John Doe (Kevin Spacey), who based his crimes on Catholicism’s Seven Deadly Sins. Doe killed Tracy out of Envy, driving David to kill him out of anger. Together Wrath and Envy are punished.
Although that upsetting climax was indeed in the script by Andrew Kevin Walker, Pitt recently revealed that some at the studio New Line Cinema wanted something else entirely in that box.

A superhero, sometimes spelled “super hero” or “super-hero,” is a fictional character known for their extraordinary physical abilities and commitment to heroic deeds for the greater good. The term “superheroine” is often used for female superheroes. While most superheroes have some form of superhuman strength, it’s not a strict requirement for the label.
Superheroes have long been associated with muscular, well-defined physiques, a standard established in the early days of comic books. Actors who portray these characters often conform to this muscular ideal, inadvertently setting a certain appearance standard for their fans.
Recently, a fan expressed concern online about this issue, criticizing superhero movie stars for promoting an unrealistic and potentially unhealthy body image. They argue that this practice is problematic and should be addressed, particularly because it differs from how female models are treated.

A superhero (alternatively spelled “super hero” or “super-hero”) is always a fictional character “of unprecedented physical prowess dedicated to acts of derring-do in the public interest.” A female superhero is sometimes called a “superheroine.” By most standards, a character needs not to possess actual superhuman powers to be deemed a superhero, but that is not a precisely defined rule.
Superheros are extremely popular, and since most of them possess at least some degree of superhuman strength, their bodies are often bulked up and full of muscles, which is a standard set in the early days of comic books. Of course, the actors portraying these characters also have to present such bodies, and whether they like it or not, they are setting a standard with such appearances.

This article contains major spoilers for "Borderlands."
The "Borderlands" series of video games are a unique breed: they can be thought of as action-oriented shooters, or they can be considered as character-based RPGs. Like so many "open-world" games of the last decade or so, they're structured in such a way that you could either spend your time curating a character and gallivanting across the wasteland of Pandora, or you could jump right into story-based missions and follow a scripted tale like the single-player games of old.
"Borderlands," the feature film adaptation, cannot possibly replicate the open-world aspects of the video game, so it must by default hone in on those story missions. As such, director and co-writer Eli Roth (with Joe Crombie officially co-credited on writing duties) attempts to distill the expansive universe of the "Borderlands" series into a coherent movie, and at least where coherence is concerned, does a pretty decent job.

Pitt was once known for commanding huge salaries for his films. In the past, he earned tens of millions of dollars for movies like Mr. and Mrs. Smith and Ocean’s 11. Even in his older years, his pricetag hasn’t expired. Not too long ago, The Things reported that he netted $20 million for the action thriller Bullet Train. His lucrative career added up to a net worth of $400 million for Pitt.

For a pair once known as the most widely shipped power couples of all time, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are going through a lot more than just a “rough patch.” While their ongoing messy and incredibly lengthy divorce war is one thing, what further has them constantly stealing the spotlight is their seemingly never-ending fight over their assets and properties.

That being said, recent reports are claiming that vengeance has reportedly seeped into Pitt’s heart while fighting this legal battle with his former wife. This comes after one crucial act from the Fight Club actor’s legal team seems to have sent Jolie on a wild goose chase after documents that the source claims even Pitt believes won’t be able to stand in court.

Stars: Winona Ryder, Christian Slater, Shannen Doherty, Lisanne Falk, Kim Walker, Peter Dawson | Written by Daniel Waters | Directed by Michael Lehmann
Heather Chandler (Kim Walker) is the leader of the “Heathers”, a clique of mean girls running their Ohio high school. There are two other Heathers in the group, and then there’s the runt of the litter: Veronica Sawyer (Winona Ryder). Veronica is a bitch, but her engagement with the girls’ cycle of bullying and mockery is reluctant. Smooth, smarmy Jason Dean (Christian Slater) spots this self-doubt and lures Veronica into his carefree, rebellious world. Veronica and Jason spark up an immediately passionate yet toxic romance. Veronica has often thought about killing Miss Chandler, not to mention other bullies at the school, but now she’s met someone who’s really willing to do it.
From the opening scene, where we meet Veronica (who’s also the narrator) buried...

Brad Pitt mostly had romantic roles in fantasy movies until the role of David Mills in Se7en came along. The David Fincher film established him as an A-lister in Hollywood and he went on to act in the projects of legendary filmmakers. One moment from David Fincher’s intense serial killer film would make any fan laugh out loud after knowing its behind-the-scene story.

Star Matt Damon, who appeared in the 1998 poker drama Rounders with Edward Norton, is keen on making a sequel.
It’s not uncommon for an actor to be out on the press circuit and be questioned about a film they’d love to do a sequel for. However, when that actor has their own production company, any answer they give has a much greater chance of actually happening. Recently on The Rich Eisen Show, Matt Damon was asked that very question and he didn’t have to think too hard about his response.
“The one that we’ve been talking about for years – and I just saw Edward Norton a few weeks ago, [and] all of us want to do it – is a second Rounders movie,” Damon said, as picked up by The Hollywood Reporter. “Because so much has happened in that poker world in the last 25 years, it would be...

Actress and filmmaker Angelina Jolie reportedly requested her ex-husband Brad Pitt to ‘end the fighting’ with regards to their legal battle over the Chateau Miraval winery. The actress reportedly requested a truce in the matter and asked Pitt to drop the lawsuit he had filed.
However, insiders reported that Pitt had no intention of putting a stop to the matter as it was a standard business dispute. Sources close to the actor mentioned that the Girl, Interrupted actress had brought personal issues related to their divorce into a business dispute.

I went into Those About To Die, the latest big-budget effort by Peacock to convince people to watch something other than The Office on it, not really knowing what to expect; though I certainly had my hopes. Given the Ancient Roman setting, I hoped to see epic gladiator battles and chariot races and a fresh take on this particular period in history. And given the involvement of Roland Emmerich, I was hoping said fresh take would be enjoyably nonsensical a la his 2011 film Anonymous.
The end result is only about half of what I was hoping for. While the production values and action sequences are impressive and often entertaining, the actual story and characters that make up a bulk of the show’s runtime leave something to be desired. There isn’t much of a narrative hook or character dynamics to latch onto; and as such, it often ends up...

What might teenage boys do when they’re stuck in a hotel while filming 1983’s The Outsiders? Well, if it was Rob Lowe and Tom Cruise, they’re going to have a sparring match.
The 9-1-1: Lone Star actor was asked on Monday’s episode of The Rich Eisen Show about his favorite memory with Cruise, and their time working together on the iconic Francis Ford Coppola-directed movie was the first thing that came to mind, especially when they were just messing around.
“He’s [Cruise] so competitive that we used to box in the hallway of the hotel we were staying at during Outsiders,” he recalled. “So much testosterone. We’re 18-year-old guys stuck on location. So we would wear headgear, and we’d have mouthpieces in, but we would legitimately spar.”
Lowe noted that the Mission: Impossible star was “jacked” at the time compared to him...

In an era where audiences are peddled an onslaught of remakes, sequels, and requels, few attempts at adapting existing works really manage to stand out. That one of these precious few was immediately trashed by critics who didn’t understand it and mismanaged by a company that was too scared to court controversy, is a shame. That show, though you may not expect it, was none other than Paramount’s own “Heathers”, which aired in 2018.
The series, created by Jason Micallef, had the same basics as Daniel Waters and Michael Lehmann’s film of the same name, fixating on a group of students at Westerberg High School in Sherwood, Ohio, and the deeply messy politics and behavior that comes with that. It retained the main crew of three “mean-girls” Heathers, along with the blasé “good person” Veronica and her faux-tortured murderer love interest Jd.

Matthew McConaughey headed to social media to post a brand-new photo of himself. However, when fans noticed the picture, they were horrified despite McConaughey smiling. The actor’s face was severely injured, and he looked almost disfigured.
Here is a look at what happened to McConaughey’s face and how he reacted to it.
Matthew McConaughey Posts Photo Of Swelled Face
In the photo, Matthew McConaughey smiled at the camera. However, his right eye was completely swollen and closed, and the side of his face was puffy. While he was smiling, it was clear something was seriously wrong with the actor. He stated what happened in the caption.

In the caption, he wrote, “bee swell.” It was a pun and a basic dad joke from the father of three. Of course, it was also what happened. A bee stung McConaughey in the face, and this swelling resulted from the incident.

Plot twists are great. Who doesn’t love a good plot twist? We all love to get the rug pulled from under our feet while we’re watching a film, and then we rewatch the whole thing so we can see if we can catch the telltale signs of the act that has already subverted our expectations. And a good plot twist gets embedded so deeply into your psyche that the mere mention of something like Fight Club makes you remember the moment where it’s revealed that Tyler Durden and the Narrator are one and the same. If I say Oldboy, I’m sure you start thinking about the terrifying scene where Oh Dae-su learns the truth about his daughter. And even before I can finish saying the words Kahaani, I’m certain that you’re already picturing the scene where Vidya Balan pulls out the fake baby bump.
