This may be painful, but prior to Taylor Sheridan’s arrival as a storyteller, the Western genre’s heartbeat was growing faint; its glory days were a mere echo in Hollywood’s canyon. Who would have dared to dream that a movie could really spur a renaissance and bring the Western back to the forefront of American culture, reminding us all of the thrill of the untamed land?

Indeed, it was the Oscar-winning film Unforgiven, directed by and starring the legendary Clint Eastwood. This golden nugget of Western filmography not only capped off Eastwood’s illustrious career as a cowboy but also carved a path for new stories to gallop into modern audiences’ hearts. That being said, it even provided the creative tinder for Taylor Sheridan’s now-acclaimed Yellowstone.

Jennifer Garner Gets Stuck in Comic-Con Elevator for Over an Hour: ‘I Could Use a Wolverine’ | Video
Jennifer Garner had an unforgettable first San Diego Comic-Con — but maybe not for the right reasons. She found herself trapped in her hotel’s elevator for more than an hour. The “Elektra” star documented her 72-minute claustrophobic nightmare in a seven-part series on her Instagram account over the weekend.
“I could use a Wolverine. I could use a Deadpool. I could use someone,” she pleaded in a video just two minutes after being stuck in an elevator at San Diego’s Hard Rock Hotel on Saturday.
“I think I heard on an episode of ‘The Office’ or ‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ or something that you’re supposed to sit, so we’re sitting,” the actress said after 35 minutes of being tucked into the corner of the crowded elevator, full of people and luggage.
Garner being in San Diego this weekend, ahem, may have been connected with the current blockboster “Deadpool & Wolverine.

The actress attended the event to celebrate her cameo on Deadpool & Wolverine, in which she reprised her role as Marvel superhero Elektra.
During the day, Garner boarded an elevator at the Hard Rock Hotel in San Diego, California, which left her stuck alongside other people. Garner documented the dilemma in a series of videos she shared on Instagram.
“Hey guys, um, we’re stuck on this elevator,” Garner said in the first video. “I could use a Wolverine, I could use a Deadpool. I could use someone.”
The following clip was 11 minutes into being trapped in the elevator and she said, “It’s toasty. I’m sphitzy, I need to blot.”
“Don’t cut the blue wire is what we’re hearing,” Garner...

Deadpool & Wolverine is now playing in theaters and, while we have a pretty comprehensive list of cameos, the movie is still finding ways to surprise us!
It's been revealed today that Spider-Man actor Tom Holland's brother, Harry, was enlisted by the movie's stunt team to play one of the many Deadpool Corps members slaughtered by the title characters during the final act.
The news even surprised Ryan Reynolds who took to Instagram to share his shock that Holland - whose cameo as a bicycle thief was cut from Spider-Man: No Way Home in 2021 - was in the movie.
Of course, that epic sequence is set to the tune of Madonna's "Like a Prayer." The one-shot battle is likely to go down as one of the McU's best fight scenes and, talking to SiriusXM, Shawn Levy and Reynolds elaborated on how they made the epic needle drop a reality.

Jennifer Garner’s first trip to Comic-Con didn’t go as smoothly as expected.
Taking to her Instagram on Saturday, the actress documented her experience of getting stuck in an elevator at the San Diego Convention Center for over an hour, sharing a series of videos, each noting how long she and the other passengers had been trapped. She captioned her videos, “Baby’s first Comic Con: a short story.”
Garner was at Comic-Con appearance for a surprise appearance after the Deadpool & Wolverine screening on Thursday night.
In the first clip, which was from two minutes into being stuck, Garner quipped, “I could use a Wolverine, I could use a Deadpool. I could use someone. Yeah, we’re looking for stairs.”
Eleven minutes later, Garner shared in another clip that things were starting to get “toasty” temperature wise and they were in communication with help on how to get moving again.

Taylor Sheridan’s brainchild, Yellowstone, has truly taken the bull by the horns in the American cultural rodeo, yet it seems to be galloping into uncharted waters. Despite its soaring popularity, akin to a high-flying eagle in the mountainous Montana sky, and branding of it as “the most red-state show” on TV, it curiously remains an underdog in the eyes of critics.
While many admirers are thrilled about Yellowstone, some detractors do not share this enthusiasm because they claim the show purposefully promotes conservative ideals. But Sheridan won’t accept such whines.

A closer look at the numbers reveals an intriguing paradox: Succession, the media darling, is Yellowstone’s mirror image in its depiction of a patriarch’s empire at a crossroads. However, in a head-to-head viewership showdown, Yellowstone’s episodes more often defeated its rival in the previous season.
So, why does this...

Taylor Sheridan might be known worldwide as one of the best screenwriters in the entertainment industry, but he is also infamous for his political views. The actor, writer, director, and producer is known for writing some of the finest projects of all time, including his hit Paramount show, Yellowstone. Despite the acclaim he has received, Sheridan is also criticized for his representation of women, Indigenous people, and more.

Back some while ago in 2022, Kevin Costner came under fire thanks to his political views. The aftermath was such that even the devout Yellowstone base turned on him. In light of his lead star’s controversial stance, even the unabashed Sheridan, who does not seem to be deterred by criticism, was quick to dismiss his opinions on Donald Trump.

Marvel Studios has some exciting news in store.
As Kevin Feige revealed what’s to come in the remainder of Phase Five and beyond during Saturday’s big Hall H panel at San Diego Comic-Con, some of the biggest names in the MCU, including Robert Downey Jr., Harrison Ford, Pedro Pascal and Florence Pugh assembled.
The panel kicked off with a lively choir performance of Madonna‘s ‘Like a Prayer’ after star Ryan Reynolds and director Shawn Levy previously secured the song for Deadpool & Wolverine.
Giancarlo Esposito announced his casting as Sidewinder in Captain America: Brave New World, teasing footage of the upcoming movie ahead of its Feb. 14, 2025 premiere. Ford was also in attendance, teasing his role as President Thaddeus ‘Thunderbolt’ Ross, replacing William Hurt.
Ford spoke to Deadline about “working with the actors who are terrific and really bring a lot to the screen and bring a lot to other actors.

Saturday night at San Diego Comic-Con is always a rush. While I’m huddled up in my home office listening to Sleep Token and Iress on repeat, attendees of one of the year’s most exciting entertainment events are witnessing Marvel history as the studio takes charge of Hall H to astound and amaze fans with a unique look at the future of superhero cinema. While riding the wave of Deadpool & Wolverine‘s success at the box office, Kevin Feige and his merry band of creatives are ready to blow minds and tease what’s to come from the House of Ideas!
The Marvel panel opened with a full choir singing Madonna’s 1989 hit “Like a Prayer.” A parade of Deadpools danced on stage, with one dressed like Bob Ross. It was a homoerotic display, with lots of gyrating and enthusiastic thrusting. Some crowd members did not know what to make of the scene.

That Deadpool “Like A Prayer” singing choir we heard about a few nights ago, well, it actually kicked off Marvel’s Hall H Presentation Saturday night at San Diego Comic-Con.
Satin gold and red robed choir members took the stage to belt out the Madonna song, which is something of an anthem in Deadpool & Wolverine. Various Deadpool, a bullet riddled one, another one wearing an inflated Wolverine, danced through the aisles before Marvel President and Producer Kevin Feige took the mic.

For anyone wondering if after a challenging few years, Marvel Studios could chart a path that would instantly earn back the trust of fans, the studio’s panel at San Diego Comic-Con seems to suggest the answer is a resounding yes.
In a shocking surprise (even by Marvel standards), Robert Downey Jr. was announced as returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Doctor Doom, one of the most feared and complicated characters in Marvel lore. He will be joined on this journey by The Russo Bros., the filmmakers who were behind Avengers: Infinity War (2018) and Avengers: Endgame (2019), which was the zenith of Marvel Studios’ grand universe and stands as the No. 2 grossing movie of all time.

We never thought we'd get the chance to see Hugh Jackman don Wolverine's classic blue and yellow costume from the comics when he "retired" as the character after James Mangold's Logan in 2017, but the first promotional image for Deadpool and Wolverine let everyone know that the actor would finally suit-up for his MCU debut.
Spoilers follow.
We knew he'd wear the costume, but what about the mask? As you probably figured thanks to a plethora of promo art, Jackman does indeed don the cowl, but not until much later on in the movie.
As Logan and the Merc With a Mouth prepare to fight their way through the Deadpool Corps to Madonna's "Like a Prayer," we get a slow-motion shot of Jackman reaching back and pulling on the mask. He keeps it on for quite a while, and we get one amazing shot of both heroes jumping...

Robin Roberts and her Good Morning America co-host seemed stunned during a recent segment of the show featuring Hugh Jackman.
Jackman appeared on a GMA episode alongside his friend Ryan Reynolds this week.
The popular actors co-star in the highly anticipated blockbuster Deadpool & Wolverine, which recently arrived in theaters.
While Michael Strahan was away, his co-stars Robin and George Stephanopoulos were there to interview the actors.
GMA presented an exclusive look at a scene from the movie that viewers hadn’t seen yet.
However, based on the in-studio reactions, that scene may have been too much for morning television viewers.

Like its predecessors, Deadpool & Wolverine recruited some heavy-hitting songs for its soundtrack, which is fitting for the reunion of Ryan Reynolds’ Wade Wilson and Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine, who was born James Howlett.
While the trailer teased Madonna’s Like a Prayer, other anthems by groups like *Nsync and AC/DC or even the Goo Goo Dolls back action-packed and heartfelt moments in the film. Avril Lavigne has a banger in there as well, and of course, some of Hugh Jackman’s past projects creep in.
Here are all the songs in Deadpool & Wolverine:
“Only You (And You Alone) (Re-Recorded)” by The Platters “Bye Bye Bye” by *Nsync “This Is How We Do It” by Montell Jordan “What’re We Doing Here” by Alexsucks “Like Fresh” by Kid Fresh “The Kid” by Misfit “I Know” by Janine The Machine “Money Life” by B. Stew “Angel of the Morning...

Known primarily as a chronicler of urban crime and corruption with noirs like In the Palm of Your Hand, The Other One, and Night Falls, Mexican director Roberto Gavaldón proved himself equally adept at tackling another popular national genre of the era, the rural melodrama, with 1952’s Soledad’s Shawl. Following a skilled doctor, Alberto Robles (Arturo de Córdova), who yearns to leave the small, remote town he works in and return to Mexico City for an important research job, Gavaldón’s film is a superb exploration of the dichotomies between urban and rural, science and superstition, and body and soul.
While the presence of Catholic morality is pervasive throughout, the film resists such trite tropes like the sinful city man learning the values of religion or coming to love the simple charms and beauty of the countryside. This rural region is seen instead as a place of grinding poverty,...

There are two main categories of Angelina Jolie fans. It’s no secret that fans of the Oscar-winning siren often find themselves at a crossroads, yearning either to walk a mile in her shoes or to bask in her radiant company. And if there’s anyone who has felt the full force of Jolie’s spellbinding allure, it’s none other than Val Kilmer, her co-star in Oliver Stone’s historical drama Alexander.

In his memoir, I’m Your Huckleberry, Kilmer revealed his deep admiration for Jolie, confessing that he was dying to share passionate kisses with her on screen. The former’s infatuation with Jolie was undeniable, as he longed to be by her side and create unforgettable moments on screen.
Moreover, the icing on the cake was when Kilmer shared a more intimate side of his bond with the Unbroken actress.

It’s something fans have waited 20 years for when it comes to Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine, even if they didn’t know it. No, not the costume. We always knew we wanted to see Jackman in that little yellow and blue number. And when the mask came on during the third act of Deadpool & Wolverine, the roof of my particular theater strained from the high-decibel cheers.
As beautiful as that costume was while watching Wolverine go on a Madonna-scored berserker rage, we have seen Jackman’s most beloved onscreen character up to his knees in blood splatter before. We have also seen him attempt to sacrifice himself for the world, or at least a handful of loved ones in it, be it in X-Men when he risked dying of slash wounds in order to transfer his healing factor to Anna Paquin’s Rogue,...

As beautiful as that costume was while watching Wolverine go on a Madonna-scored berserker rage, we have seen Jackman’s most beloved onscreen character up to his knees in blood splatter before. We have also seen him attempt to sacrifice himself for the world, or at least a handful of loved ones in it, be it in X-Men when he risked dying of slash wounds in order to transfer his healing factor to Anna Paquin’s Rogue,...

There was all sorts of buzz as to what the surprise would be at the end of Thursday night’s screening of Deadpool & Wolverine in Hall at Comic-Con.
We heard that Deadpool and Wolverine were returning in a new X-Men movie, and there was word of a choir coming out to sing Madonna’s “Like a Prayer.” None of that happened during the first of two Comic-Con Hall H panels for Marvel Studios.
Instead, Kevin Feige, Marvel’s president and producer, told the crowd to look to the skies at 9:45 p.m. At that time, a Merc with the Mouth-themed drone show took place, ending with the reveal that Fantastic Four and Galactus would be at the studio’s big Hall H panel on Saturday night.
Galactus appeared over San Diego’s Petco Park via drones as his great god-being. The drones soon re-arranged to make up the iconic Fantastic Four ‘4’ symbol.

A mainstay of the film industry since the days of VHS tapes, Kevin Costner has made his name as an adept actor, creating a tapestry of hits that includes the heart-pounding suspense in The Bodyguard and the quintessential American charm in Bull Durham. His star soared into the stratosphere with the epic Dances with Wolves, netting him not only box-office adoration but also the coveted Oscar statuettes for Best Picture and Best Director.

The success of Costner’s TV show Yellowstone serves as further evidence that his stardom is still bright. That being said, it should come as no surprise that some people have not gotten along with the actor. His recent feud with Taylor Sheridan, as well as a throwback to a ’90s squabble with none other than Madonna, is public knowledge.

Kit Harington, best known for his role as Jon Snow in Game of Thrones, showed off his toned physique backstage at the West End production of Slave Play. Playwright Jeremy O. Harris shared a candid photo of Harington on Instagram, capturing the actor sporting his perfect six-pack while preparing for an IV drip in the dressing room of London’s Noël Coward Theatre.
The 37-year-old actor was seen standing in gray joggers, holding what seemed to be an empty coffee cup. Unaware of Harris’s intention to post the picture online, Harington might be in for a surprise. Harris, 35, humorously noted on his Instagram Story, “Kit’s gonna kill me for posting this. Share it so he will forgive me.”
The snapshot quickly garnered attention on social media, with fans resharing it on X and expressing their admiration. One enthusiastic fan commented, “Kit Harington, I Have No Words,” while another added,...

George Lazenby was the first actor to play James Bond on the big screen after Sean Connery left the role. That might sound like a significant accomplishment, but Lazenby has been a walking punchline for decades for two very different reasons.
George Lazenby is the worst actor to play James Bond by far
Connery made Bond one of the most famous fictional characters of the 20th century through the first five 007 movies: Dr. No, From Russia with Love, Goldfinger, Thunderball, and You Only Love Twice. He left the franchise, only to be replaced by Lazenby for the following movie: On Her Majesty’s Secret Service. Lazenby had some big shoes to fill.
And fill them he did not. While 007 is supposed to be all about his wit and charm, Lazenby is wooden. Watching On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, it’s hard to imagine Lazenby getting the lead role in a...

After a period of speculation, Lady Gaga will officially be performing at the opening ceremony of the 2024 Olympic Games. The singer, who arrived in Paris earlier this week, will reportedly perform a duet at the opening ceremony with another iconic artist. While the official lineup for the ceremony is still under wraps, a number of other musicians have been rumored to join Gaga in welcoming athletes to Paris.

Lady Gaga was one of the biggest stars of the late 2000s and early 2010s, so it’s no surprise she racked up a few No. 1 songs. Some of her biggest tracks didn’t manage to top the charts. Here’s a look at all five of her no. 1 singles, from the basic to the great.
5. ‘Born This Way’
“Born This Way” has a great message, encouraging the LGBTQ community, people of color, and people with disabilities to take pride in their identities. If only that message was delivered in a better musical package. The buzzing production of “Born This Way” is annoying, and it paved the way for Gaga’s overproduced flop Artpop.
“Born This Way” garnered controversy for its similarities to Madonna’s “Express Yourself.” That controversy will hang over both songs until the end of time, which makes it harder to appreciate them. “Born This Way” was No.

Lady Gaga‘s “Bad Romance” inspired one of the best and trippiest music videos of all time. The director of the clip explained that it’s about people who are “kind of vampires.” Interestingly, “Bad Romance” didn’t manage to reach No. 1 in the United States — but it did inspire a Meryl Streep cover.
Lady Gaga’s ‘Bad Romance’ is about women being auctioned off
Francis Lawrence is a movie director responsible for popcorn flicks like I Am Legend and every Hunger Games movie except for the first one. Perhaps his most significant work is the music video for “Bad Romance.” While everyone can agree the clip is visually stunning, its plotline can be difficult to understand upon first viewing. During a 2010 interview with CBS News, Lawrence gave us his interpretation of “Bad Romance.”

David Banda has been talking about his life after leaving home, offering some surprisingly candid and funny insights.
On a recent Instagram Live, the Malawi-born teen revealed some intriguing details about his post-graduation existence and what life is like living independently.
Life After Madonna’s Home
David Banda, who graduated from high school last year, has been “scavenging” for food, he told listeners, apparently having a hard time transitioning to life on his own. Despite his mother’s estimated net worth of $850 million and her extensive real estate portfolio.
“It’s lovely to experience it being 9 o’clock at night, me being hungry and realizing that I don’t have enough money to get food, but we don’t have enough food in the house and scavenging,” he joked during the live session, going on to add: “It’s fun to be young!”

Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman were the stars of the night in New York on July 22 when Deadpool & Wolverine had its world premiere. Ever since Jackman walked the red carpet of the event, fans have been discussing his looks. A photo comparison of Jackman and Dafne Keen from Logan‘s red carpet and this event alone is proof enough that the actor is not showing any signs of aging.

The actor explained at a recent SiriusXM Town Hall that he and the movie’s director, Shawn Levy, had a personal meeting with Madonna to show the pop icon the sequence in which the song would be used in the film. Also, let’s preface it with the fact that they don’t license — Madonna doesn’t just license the song, and particularly that song has not been licensed, Reynolds pointed out. So it was a big...

Earlier in the week, Banda revealed that he sometimes lacks "enough money to get food" and ends up "scavenging" to get by.
The musician made the reveal during a live video on his Instagram page, during which he talked about living on his own with his girlfriend, Maria Atuesta, in a humble abode in the Bronx, New York.
His comments sparked worries from concerned fans that he had been starving since leaving Madonna's home to...

In a wild twist, pop legend Madonna ended up playing a role in the new Marvel movie “Deadpool & Wolverine“! Directors Ryan Reynolds and Shawn Levy revealed how Madonna helped punch up a key scene.
Reynolds and Levy had to personally meet with Madonna to get the rights to use her iconic 1989 song “Like a Prayer” in the film. Madonna doesn’t normally license her songs for movies, especially big ones like that. But the directors were determined and it paid off!
What’s even crazier is that Madonna didn’t just sign off – she gave creative input too. After watching part of the scene with her song, she said the directors needed to change something. And get this – they immediately went back and re-recorded that section based on Madonna’s note! Both Reynolds and Levy said it made the moment way better.
We don’t know the exact changes Madonna suggested.

Ryan Reynolds and his “Deadpool & Wolverine” director Shawn Levy revealed during an interview on Andy Cohen’s SiriusXM radio show (via People) that they met with Madonna in person in order to secure the rights to use “Like a Prayer” in the upcoming Marvel tentpole. The music icon agreed, and the song ended up playing a prominent role in both the film and various trailers for it.
“It did involve a personal visit to Madonna, where we showed Madonna the sequence where ‘Like a Prayer’ would be used,” Levy said.
“Also, let’s preface it with the fact that they don’t license — that Madonna doesn’t just license the song, particularly that song,” Reynolds added. “It was a big deal to ask for it and certainly a bigger deal to use it… We went over and met with her and and sort of showed her how it was being used,...

Some of the biggest classic rock stars weren’t radio giants. Case in point: Bruce Springsteen never managed to have a No. 1 single, but he did get to No. 2. Interestingly, he worried that broadening his appeal could backfire.
1 Bruce Springsteen pop hit was about his ‘alienation’
Springsteen’s only single to make it to No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 was “Dancing in the Dark.” In his 2016 book Born to Run, Springsteen explained what he was thinking when he penned “Dancing in the Dark.” “That evening I wrote ‘Dancing in the Dark,’ my song about my own alienation, fatigue, and desire to get out from inside the studio, my room, my record, my head and … live,” he recalled. “This was the record and song that’d take me my farthest into the pop mainstream.”

Katy Perry and Madonna have been compared over the years, a fact that may have disappointed her parents. Perry knew Madonna while she was growing up. She did not like her, though. Perry’s family protested Madonna’s music and she was not allowed to mention her while she was in the home.

Though Perry listens to music across genres as an adult, she struggled to discover new artists as a child. Her parents did not want her to listen to some musicians.

With Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman’s Deadpool & Wolverine being closer than ever to the theaters, entertainment outlets are dropping iconic anecdotes surrounding the film and its making. Similarly, one such exciting story caught our attention, that revolves around a particular song used in the Deadpool threequel.

Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman, and even filmmaker Shawn Levy had apparently poured a herculean effort into obtaining permission from Madonna to use her 1989 hit Like a Prayer. Well, the song’s inclusion in the film is a big deal, since it has only been used once before in a film- Drew Barrymore’s Never Been Kissed.
Securing the Rights to Like a Prayer Wasn’t an Easy Feat for Ryan Reynolds
During the post-production phase for Deadpool & Wolverine, Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman, and director Shawn Levy mutually agreed on one particular aspect.

With less than a week away from hitting the big screens, the hype surrounding Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool threequel couldn’t be much higher, as it could be a make-or-break deal for the MCU. Considering the last few years have been less-than-thrilling for the cinematic giant, both Kevin Feige and fans will hope that Deadpool & Wolverine will be the one to put MCU’s train back on track.
Moreover, each new report regarding the threequel further contributes to its enormous hype, especially one scene in general, which Reynolds deemed as perfection, thanks to Madonna.

You’ll never believe who’s leaving her mark on the new Marvel movie “Deadpool & Wolverine” – none other than the Queen of Pop herself, Madonna! Usually artists just license their music to movies, but Madonna actually gave the directors advice that ended up changing a big scene.
Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman and director Shawn Levy told Andy Cohen all about their crazy experience pitching the movie to Madonna and asking to use her iconic 1989 hit “Like a Prayer.” They knew it was a long shot since Madonna doesn’t normally let people use that song. But they showed her in person how they planned to put it in this big fight sequence.
Levy said meeting Madonna at her house was surreal, like “meeting royalty”! After she watched the scene, she surprised them with a note about making it even better. And get this – they rushed to change it within...

Photo credit: “Shutterstock.AI” During her long career, Madonna has built a long track record of success by constantly reinventing herself and not repeating herself. But, oddly enough, she’ll be recycling one of her early film titles for her biopic: Who’s That Girl. The film, which had been put on hold so that Madonna could mount a world tour, is back in preproduction again, according to an Entertainment Weekly article, with Madonna herself working on script revisions. It makes perfect sense that she would want to have the final say in the screenplay. We’ve spoken to her several times over the years, and one of the things she’s always stressed is that people who think they know her, don’t really know her.

Exciting things are happening in the world of country music. For example, Shaboozey had his first big hit with “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” a country track that heavily samples J-Known’s “Tispy.” Few would expect a crunk anthem like “Tipsy” to become the template for a backwoods hit! However, Shaboozey’s song is better than J-Kwon’s in every way.
J-Kwon’s ‘Tipsy’ and Shaboozey’s ‘A Bar Song (Tipsy)’ are iconic but only 1 is poignant
J-Kwon’s song encapsulated an era. Between its lyrics about alcohol, its stomping beat, and its undeniable chorus, it embodied the crunk movement. It’ll show up on 2000s R&b playlists for decades to come. However, it doesn’t have much emotional resonance or a melody.
Meanwhile, “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” is the rare drinking song that speaks to the soul. J-Kwon is drinking for fun, but Shaboozey is drinking out of desperation.
