Don't call it an Oscars gift bag.

Lin-Manuel Miranda is an actor, a writer, a singer, a rhymer. A masterful Tweet-sender and equality defender. A playwright who can do no wrong. You might see him as a master of theater, but we call him an unparalleled "creator."

"Golden Girls" fans now have the perfect place to gather with pals and confidants.

Donald Glover is going to be the mane event in Disney's live-action version of "The Lion King." And he'll be joined by an actor whose voice is as legendary as they come.

Is K-pop past its prime? Or just having growing pains?

For nearly 30 years, Ethan Hawke has done the same job -- without ever repeating himself. He began his career as a poetry-loving kid in prep school and went on to be the poster boy for Generation X in "Reality Bites." He's played a cop, a cowboy and a dreamer, all in service of his most important role -- "creator."

If the whole musician/actor/playwright/composer thing doesn't work out for Lin-Manuel Miranda, he might want to try his hand as an advice columnist.

A force of stage and screen for more than two decades, Billy Crudup has roles in two Oscar hopefuls this year -- "Jackie" and "20th Century Women," just one year after appearing in Best Picture winner "Spotlight." Just another awards season in the life of a "creator."

Sarah Jessica Parker strutted into mega-success with "Sex in the City," built a brand from her love of Blahniks, and is diving into emotionally deep waters with "Divorce." But she's more than an actress, more than a brand; she's a "creator."

According to a new study, Hollywood's diversity initiatives need to extend to age.

Chris Sullivan may be one of the first actors body-shamed for not being big enough.

"Billions" raced through so much story during its highly entertaining first season that the second, perhaps inevitably, yields diminishing returns. Yet the show is also somewhat victimized by bad timing, chronicling an epic battle between a billionaire investor and government watchdog at a moment when financial regulations are being diluted, if not outright dismantled.

Handsomely produced, "The Great Wall" has the feel of an old "B" movie, with a rudimentary plot that mashes up elements of everything from "Game of Thrones" to "Starship Troopers." While casting Matt Damon in this Chinese-made film might not produce box-office glory in the U.S., if this isn't a great movie, it's certainly a pretty good one.

There's apparently a reason why Regis Philbin has never been back to his old morning show with Kelly Ripa.

Yes, Rick Astley has been rickrolled before.

President Donald Trump on Thursday asked April Ryan, an African-American reporter and longtime White House correspondent, if she would arrange for him a meeting with the Congressional Black Caucus.

Whoopi Goldberg and Tiffany Trump are going to be New York Fashion Week buddies.

Bubbling over with big-name stars, "Big Little Lies" is an enticing HBO limited series, one with echoes of several other prestige dramas. Featuring Reese Witherspoon and Nicole Kidman in key roles, in terms of addictive appeal think of it as a more leisurely paced, soap-opera version of "True Detective."
