Alien: Romulus star Archie Renaux is back on land with sights set on a new earthly venture — a production company in partnership with Arjun Rose. The two didn’t have to search far and wide for a name of their new initiative by calling it A2R2.
Renaux and Rose met in 2016 at The Unseen, an acting academy and management firm founded by Rose. After Renaux walked through its doors, one of the first students to do so, they formed a bond that began as teacher-peer before morphing into professional status as manager, friend and cheerleader in helping Renaux launch his acting career and secure additional reps at the Artists Partnership.
Renaux said he’s stoked to take their partnership to the next level. “The journey began in the classroom, where Arjun was writing and directing scenes that I was acting in, and we were filming them together on an iPhone,...

With only three stellar features to her name in the last two-plus decades, The Forest for the Trees, Everyone Else, and Toni Erdmann, every new film from Maren Ade comes with much anticipation. While she’s also stayed busy producing no shortage of great work with Tabu, Arabian Nights, Western, In My Room, The Whistlers, Ahed’s Knee, Corsage, About Dry Grasses, and more, the German filmmaker is now working on her fourth feature.
In an interview with Screen Daily, Komplizen Film producer Janine Jackowski revealed Ade is scripting her next film Zauberwort (aka Magic Word), with plans to shoot in 2026, which means a festival premiere is still likely three years away. “[Ade] is writing very intensely. She is working very hard,” said Jackowski, though was tight-lipped about any other details on the project.

Regisseurin Maren Ade plant einem Bericht von „Screendaily“ zufolge mit „Zauberwort“ ihren ersten Film seit ihrem Oscar-nominierten „Toni Erdmann“ im Jahr 2016. „Sie schreibt sehr intensiv daran.

Unterdessen ist das geplante US-Remake von „Toni Erdmann“ ein wenig ins Stocken geraten, wie Komplizen-Film-Geschäftsführer Jonas Dornbach gegenüber „Screendaily“ erklärte: „Es war bei Paramount, aber es gab viele Veränderungen in der Firma und es ist dort ein wenig steckengeblieben. „Es gibt ein Fragezeichen darüber, was passieren wird. Das Drehbuch war fantastisch, ich mochte es wirklich.“
Lena Dunham und Jenni Konner hatten das Drehbuch zu dem „Toni Erdmann“-Remake geschrieben, das Lisa Cholodenko inszenieren sollte.

Yellowjackets breakout Ella Purnell drew on previous experience of “not being afraid to look ugly” when leading Sweetpea, the irreverent Sky-Starz dramedy about a quiet wallflower who becomes a serial killer.
Speaking to Deadline in the days leading up to Sweetpea premiere, Purnell talked up her roles as Jackie in Yellowjackets and Lucy in Fallout, which allowed her to give breadth to her character Rhiannon in the C.J. Skuse adaptation.
“Yellowjackets was a really fun experiment in not being afraid to look ugly in environments where you initially look put together,” she said of playing Mean Girls-esque queen bee Jackie who ends up in a hole in the ground in the hit Paramount+ series. “Eventually she looks like s**t so bringing a bit of that to Rhiannon who doesn’t have a lot of pride in her appearance was important.

This year marks the 40th anniversary of the MTV Video Music Awards. The inaugural ceremony, held at Radio City Music Hall and hosted by Dan Aykroyd and Bette Midler in 1984, saw the Cars taking home video of the year their groundbreaking clip for “You Might Think.”
Since then, the VMAs have doled out 39 more trophies for their top prize, with only a small handful of acts joining the club of repeat winners. Taylor Swift has racked up four wins while Eminem, Rihanna, and Beyoncé have notched two a piece (both Swift and Eminem have a shot at adding to their totals again this year).
Despite MTV handing over the choice to viewers in 2006, the quality of the winners in the category has remained surprisingly consistent, with only a few total duds or headscratchers. To celebrate the VMAs’ ruby anniversary, we ranked all 40 video of the year winners from worst to best.

Catherine Cohen has already appeared on “Girls5eva,” “What We Do in the Shadows,” “Awkwafina Is Nora from Queens,” “Broad City,” and “Search Party,” but it turns out no other show can really top the “good vibes” from Hulu’s beloved Emmy winner “Only Murders in the Building.”
Cohen stars in Season 4 of the whodunit series that centers on neighbors-turned-podcasters Charles (Steve Martin), Oliver (Martin Short), and Mabel (Selena Gomez) as they solve the pile-up of murder cases that seem to follow them everywhere…including during a bicoastal stint as their podcast is adapted into a film.
While Eugene Levy, Zach Galifianakis, and Eva Longoria star as versions of themselves cast in the film adaptation of the podcast, Cohen and Siena Werber play a directing duo helming the movie. “Pachinko” alum Jin Ha is the screenwriter, with Molly Shannon as the producer setting the whole thing in motion.

Presumably because movies like Joker and Cruella proved that audiences just love villain origin stories, this week we’re getting Reagan, a brand new biopic about the 40th President of the United States starring Dennis Quaid, Penelope Ann Miller and Jon Voight. Oh, and Creed frontman Scott Stapp as Frank Sinatra, because this movie is clearly some kind of collective fever dream.
But years before Quaid saddled up for the role (literally), we nearly got a movie about Ronald Reagan, also called Reagan, starring Will Ferrell. That may sound kind of odd, but it’s not like he didn’t have years of experience playing terrible presidents.
Back in 2016, it was reported that Ferrell’s production company, Gary Sanchez, had acquired Reagan, a screenplay by Mike Rosolio that appeared on the annual Black List, which collects the year’s best unproduced film scripts. Ferrell was attached to star in the...

“Emily in Paris” Season 4 delivered just the right amount of chaos, high fashion and whimsy we needed as the summer comes to a close.
But, with just five episodes in Season 4 Part 1, this season of the Netflix drama is ready to be binged in mere hours. Luckily, Part 2, which will include the latter five episodes of Season 4, will return on Sept. 12.
In the meantime, “Emily in Paris” creator Darren Star has plenty of lighter fare shows full of great fashion from “Sex and the City” — and its later offshoot “The Carrie Dairies” — to “Younger.” If you watch the Lily Collins-lead series for escapism, campy comedies like “Dollface” or “Drop Dead Diva” might also scratch the whimsical itch.
Keep on reading for the seven shows like “Emily in Paris” you should watch while you wait for Part 2 to drop.

Reese Witherspoon’s Film Debut at 14
Reese Witherspoon recalls seeing a newspaper ad seeking a 14-year-old Southern girl for a movie role. After auditioning, she didn’t hear back for a month. Then, after returning from softball practice, her mom informed her that she was called for a screen test in Los Angeles.
Her audition impressed director Robert Mulligan, and she was offered the central role of tomboy Dani Trant. He admitted casting the Louisiana-born, Tennessee-raised actress in The Man on the Moon was risky.
“We had a casting team that went out and saw several thousand kids and tested them on video. When I saw Reese’s test,...

Lily Collins is opening up about how, despite finding some similarities between herself and her Emily in Paris character, Emily Cooper, she’s found a way to separate herself from the character.
The actress sat down with InStyle for its recent cover, which published online Tuesday, a week before season four of the hit Netflix series releases. In the conversation, she got candid about Emily’s need to be perfect, how the character helped her find her sense of fashion again and plans beyond Paris.
When filming Emily in Paris season one, Collins recalled talking to her now-husband, Charlie McDowell, about the how she and her character were similar, and she wanted to find a way to differentiate them. She explained that she struggled with Emily’s desire to be perfect, which she was also going through.
“This idea of perfection, needing to just always feel ready to go, always feeling like your perfect self.

Lena Dunham and Stephen Fry play a daughter and her Holocaust-survivor father, on a trip to his native Poland in the 1990s, in the dramedy Treasure. The trip is the daughter’s idea, and her plan is to learn about her family history, something her father and late mother always refused to talk about. Angry and frustrated at her parents’ refusal to share anything about their past, she plans to visit sites related to dad’s family and life to learn about the family she knows nothing about. Her father has steadfastly refused to talk about it, and with the death of her mother, she figured going to their home country of Poland was the only way. Unsurprisingly, revisiting Poland is not something dad wanted to do but he goes along, pretty much uninvited,...

She got her big break on Lena Dunham’s hit show – and has since established a great and growing career. The actor and writer discusses Madame Web, introversion and her surprisingly personal essays
Zosia Mamet hasn’t seen Madame Web, the turkey that crashed the Marvel franchise earlier this year and launched a thousand memes. “I chose not to,” she says with a smile. Mamet appeared in the Spider-Man spin-off, which has an 11% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, was described by one reviewer as a “Chornobyl-level disaster”, and became one of this year’s biggest box-office bombs.
The 36-year-old actor laughs awkwardly when I mention it. For a few days in February, Madame Web – and lead actor Dakota Johnson’s sublime press tour – was all the internet wanted to talk about.

Taylor Swift’s life is a highly televised one. Considering how she has been responsible for some of the most successful albums of all time and is single-handedly heading one of the biggest artist tours of all time, it is not surprising that hundreds watch every move she makes.
If she is present at an event, a venue, or even going out and about in her daily life, she is constantly followed by crowds and cameras. There have even been instances where there is speculation that she is present somewhere, and people have stormed the street.

Lena Dunham will not subject herself to negative critiques about her body and has opted not to return to acting in her new Netflix series Too Much.
In a new interview, Dunham said she won’t be starring in her semi-autobiographic show on the streamer because of all the body shaming she faced on HBO’s Girls.
“I was not willing to have another experience like what I’d experienced around Girls at this point in my life,” Dunham said in an interview with The New Yorker. “Physically, I was just not up for having my body dissected again. It was a hard choice, not to cast [Megan Stalter]—because I knew I wanted Meg—but to admit that to myself.”
She continued, “I used to think that winning meant you just keep doing it and you don’t care what anybody thinks. I forgot that winning is actually just...

Taylor Swift is one of the most notable and respected figures in the world. While her recent Eras Tour has given her unfathomable success, she has been at the forefront of the media for the majority of her career. Such an amount of notability can often come with its downsides, and the singer is no stranger to hate. One of her best-known ways to deal with the stress that comes with her life is to keep as much of it private as possible.
While the world does think that they know a lot about Swift, the majority of her life is kept hidden from peering eyes, and for good reason. It would seem that these practices are not exclusively practiced by her, as her close friends seem to understand the challenges that come with being such a public figure.

In a post-Barbie world, feminism plus toy equals box office paydirt – but after three years working on the script, Dunham decided she could no longer continue. Why?
Heartbreaking news from Hollywood: Lena Dunham is no longer involved in the forthcoming Polly Pocket movie. Speaking to the New Yorker, Dunham revealed she dropped out of the project because “I don’t think I have that in me.”
Clearly, there is a lot to unpack here. The first is, Christ, they’re going to make a Polly Pocket movie. People in Hollywood saw the success of Barbie and immediately started scouting around for other vaguely nostalgic toys that they could make a movie out of. And the fact that they initially chose Lena Dunham to write, direct and produce points to an even greater cynicism, as if some otherworldly algorithm had analysed Barbie and determined that the secret key to replicating its...

The film, along with Barney and Hot Wheels, is one of several projects Mattel had its in development pipeline as a follow-up to last year’s blockbuster “Barbie.” It turns out Greta Gerwig’s Oscar winner provided Dunham with the clarity she needed to put ‘Polly Pocket” aside.

Taylor Swift is making waves and breaking records with “The Eras Tour” in 2024, and Swifties are dying to know what the superstar is up to for Independence Day. In the past, Swift threw a July 4th bash with her friends every year. However, Swift will have to skip the party in 2024.

Exclusive: Chloe East (The Fabelmans) is set for a key recurring role opposite Ray Romano and Lisa Kudrow in Netflix‘s upcoming comedy series No Good Deed, from creator Liz Feldman (Dead to Me).
The eight-episode No Good Deed is a half-hour, dark comedy that follows three very different families vying to buy the very same 1920s Spanish-style villa that they think will solve all their problems. But as the sellers have already discovered, sometimes the home of your dreams can be a total nightmare.
East will play Emily Morgan, Paul (Romano) and Lydia (Kudrow) Morgan’s artsy but put-together daughter. She’s been away at college, but there may be other reasons she’s been distant.
Feldman serves as showrunner and executive produces alongside Will Ferrell and Jessica Elbaum for Gloria Sanchez Productions, Christie Smith, and Silver Tree, who will direct the pilot and additional episodes.

The 94-year-old star, whose guileless way in any movie suggests an actor who shows up to set and hits her mark without any fuss, feels ubiquitous in our screen lifetime. Since earning her SAG card in the 1980s and impressing in small roles on TV and film through the ’90s, she received the Oscar nomination that changed everything in 2014 as Will Forte’s cantankerous, tombstone-flashing mother in “Nebraska.” Squibb also played Lena Dunham’s ailing grandmother, spouting barbs from her deathbed, in HBO’s “Girls.” And she’s had roles in “The Big Bang Theory,” “Bones,” “Grey’s Anatomy,” “Good Girls,” and recently lent her voice to “Inside Out 2” as Nostalgia. Basically, if you need a granny who shirks nonsense for wisdom, and is a reassuring presence in spite of blunt truths,...

Chicago – Patrick McDonald of HollywoodChicago.com audio film review for “Treasure,” a feature film pairing the odd couple acting of Lena Dunham and Stephen Fry, as a daughter and father trying to bond in the backdrop of his memories of Auschwitz. Currently in theaters since June 14th.
Rating: 3.5/5.0
The film is set in 1991, and Dunham is Ruth, the daughter of Edek (Fry), a Polish immigrant that has not been back to the Auschwitz death camp since he was confined there as a teenager. Ruth has meticulously planned the trip, which includes a side journey to the former family factory and house in the Polish town of Lodz. Edek acts strange and elusive throughout the midst of the trip, leading to a further tear in the fabric of their relationship. What they will learn is about to become very important.
“Treasure” is in theaters since June 14th. Featuring Lena Dunham, Stephen Fry,...

It was an Inside Out specialty weekend, fairly quiet and with a stream of indies films and more wide releases. The schedule is starting to recover from a strike-induced slump that, however, provided oxygen to some indies.
Small films have been competing for screens with majors at arthouses from Alamo Drafthouse to Landmark since theaters reopened post-Covid and the more of them there are, the harder it is. It’s nice to see major back and the broader box office on a solid footing. But it would also be nice to see more indie breakouts like Civil War, Late Night With The Devil, Immaculate, Wicked Little Letters, One Life or Love Lies Bleeding.
“June is crowded” with indies now, says one distributor. And theaters “don’t have space to support indies in a meaningful way.”
Others are heartened by recent wide-release blowouts. “It’s still a tough market. But I...
