In the nearly four decades since the first live-action film starring Brigitte Nielsen and Arnold Schwarzenegger, another adaptation of Dynamite Entertainment's "Red Sonja" has failed to materialize in Hollywood — but it's not for lack of trying. Robert Rodriguez once had a vision that included Rose McGowan in the titular role. Before allegations of sexual assault were brought to light, Bryan Singer was also in line to helm a project based on the character originally created for Marvel Comics in 1973 by writer Roy Thomas and artist Barry Windsor-Smith. And the third attempt in recent history included "Ant-Man and the Wasp" star Hannah John-Kamen as the lead and "Transparent" creator Joey Soloway in the director's chair.

It took more than 13,000 plays of the Bruce Springsteen song “If I Should Fall Behind” — a live version recorded with the E Street Band at Madison Square Garden — to help Laura Dave finish her latest novel, “The Last Thing He Told Me,” which hit shelves on May 4.
The author of bestsellers like “Eight Hundred Grapes” and “The Divorce Party” listens to the same song on repeat as part of a long-held process. “I’m ritualistic to the point where there is definitely Ocd in there,” she says, “and if I stop writing mid-song, I pick up where I left off the next morning.”
The Boss is not the only marquee talent in Dave’s life these days. The new novel has been selected as May’s title of the month for Reese Witherspoon’s book club; the actor will also co-produce a scripted take at Apple TV Plus through her banner Hello Sunshine.
