Comedians Tiffany Haddish and Aries Spears have been accused of having "groomed and molested" two then-minor siblings years ago, according to a lawsuit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court.
"Jaws" ushered in the age of the blockbuster in 1975, changing the way movies were marketed and released -- practices that were cemented into the framework for summer releases when "Star Wars" followed two years later.
Adapted from a film short into a movie, "Honk for Jesus. Save Your Soul" exhibits the strain of the magnification process -- as premises go, feeling a little light in terms of the collection plate. The central performances, however, make this dark satire awkwardly watchable, with Sterling K. Brown and Regina Hall as the disgraced pastor and his wife desperately plotting a comeback.
Although devoted to Armie Hammer and his family, the title "House of Hammer" evokes thoughts of British horror films released under the Hammer label from the 1950s to the '70s, which doesn't feel coincidental. That's because this three-part Discovery+ docuseries is unfortunately presented as if it were a horror movie, with all its trappings, as it seeks to connect the scandal-plagued actor to the wealthy dynasty from which he came. (Discovery+, like CNN, is a unit of Warner Bros. Discovery.)
What a time to be a fantasy fan: Between "House of the Dragon" and "The Rings of Power," there are dozens of new characters and stories set in the familiar worlds of "Game of Thrones" and "The Lord of the Rings" for audiences to invest in.
Country musician Luke Bell, who went missing earlier this month, has been found dead, according to officer Frank Magos from the Tucson Police Department. He was 32.
Billy Eichner, co-writer and star of "Bros," one of the first major studio romantic comedies to star a primarily LGBTQ cast, clarified comments he made about streaming content starring LGBTQ actors feeling "disposable."
Ahead of her debut as Fanny Brice in the first Broadway revival of "Funny Girl," Lea Michele discussed her nerves about returning to the stage, accusations of creating a toxic environment on "Glee" and, yes, the baseless internet rumor that she's illiterate.
Richard Roat, an actor who amassed an impressive list of credits appearing in dozens of iconic television shows from the early '60s to the mid-2000s, died earlier this month, according to an obituary from his family published in the Los Angeles Times. He was 89.
Having invested hundreds of millions in mounting a series version of "The Lord of the Rings," Amazon has gotten its money's worth in production values but not storytelling, with a handsome prequel that could leave all but the most devoted Hobbits feeling more bored than lord. "The Rings of Power" should be a source of considerable curiosity, but amid an onslaught of big-budget streaming fare, this seems undeserving to rule them all.
