In the highly celebrated series Breaking Bad, Jesse Pinkman is played by Aaron Paul. His role on the TV show gained him widespread fame and recognition. On the other hand, his personal life was almost compromised because of one decision he soon changed.
Previously, he disclosed in an old interview that being a dad was not on his list of things or priorities in life. However, spending his days filming alongside kids made him think again about fatherhood. This realization also made him more appreciative of the life his wife had given up, by agreeing to marry him even though she held a contrasting view on parenthood.
The sacrifice and the surprise: what changed his mind?

Josh Hartnett played the role of nuclear physicist Ernest Lawrence in Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer. He starred alongside Matt Damon in the film, who gave him advice on how to approach the role. Damon played Lt. General Leslie Groves in the film. The only problem was the advice turned out to be completely unhelpful for the Pearl Harbor actor.

Hartnett shared that Damon advised him on gaining weight for the role, but his experienced advice came only after he had put on considerable weight. Hartnett’s recent roles include Cooper Adams M. Night Shyamalan’s psychological thriller Trap, a cameo role in The Bear, and David Ross in Black Mirror.

"The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power” is back for Season 2, and this time around there are a number of new characters to keep straight. With Sauron revealed to be Halbrand at the end of Season 1, the chess pieces are now fully in the open and the Dark Lord is masquerading as yet another new character this season in order to try and forge the titular rings. We’ve also got drama with the dwarves, in-fighting amongst the elves and that guy who most definitely is Gandalf is wandering the desert with a harfoot.
Absent in Season 2 is Nazanin Boniadi who played Bronwyn, who exited the show. But new to the cast are Ciaran Hinds, Rory Kinnear and plenty more filling out this prequel series that tackles J.R.R.

Peacock has given a straight-to-series order to 1970s espionage thriller Ponies, starring and executive produced by Emilia Clarke (Game of Thrones). The project, co-created, co-written and executive produced by Susanna Fogel (The Flight Attendant) and David Iserson (Mr. Robot) and exec produced by Jessica Rhoades (Black Mirror), previously had a cast-contingent blinking green light, which Clarke’s casting turned into a firm order.
Set in Moscow in 1977, the series follows two “Ponies” (“persons of no interest” in intelligence speak) who work anonymously as secretaries in the American Embassy. That is until their husbands are killed under mysterious circumstances in the Ussr, and the pair become CIA operatives. Bea (Clarke) is an over-educated, Russian-speaking child of Soviet immigrants. Her cohort, Twila, is a small-town girl who is as abrasive as she is fearless. Together, they work to uncover a vast Cold War conspiracy and solve the mystery that made them widows in the first place.

Easily one of the hottest celebrities in Hollywood right now, Alan Ritchson is finally riding all the high waves of success and fame that he had been chasing for decades in the entertainment industry. An iconic Jack Reacher—perhaps the best to have existed and to ever exist—he is nailing every role thrown his way, proving his tremendous worth time and time again.

But Ritchson has also seemingly fallen short by quite a bit extent. As it turns out, the 41-year-old actor was also among the contestants auditioning for the role of Marvel Cinematic Universe’s God of Thunder. However, for reasons unknown, Ritchson took the role as unseriously as ever, thinking it wouldn’t involve acting, and ended up losing out on the major role.

A seventh season of the anthology series Black Mirror will be making its way to the Netflix streaming service sometime in 2025 – and while episodes of the show have branched out into different genres as it has gone along, during an interview with Deadline, series creator Charlie Brooker said that the episodes of Black Mirror season 7 will be like the “Og Black Mirror.”
Brooker said, “We’re doing some things we’ve not done before. People can expect quite a lot of emotion and, hopefully, a good mix of chills. We did a couple of horror stories in Season 6, which we label as Red Mirror. But this time around, the episodes are all, in a way, like Og Black Mirror. I wrote one script, and the general consensus was that it was one of the bleakest, heaviest gut punches yet. There’s also techy episodes and ones that are making people cry.

“When you walk on that set, all that hits you is the terror that you’ll never be able to justify your presence there,” says Peter Mullan at the world premiere of season two of Prime Video‘s Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.
The Scottish actor, known for his roles in Trainspotting, Braveheart and Ozark, now playing King Durin III in the fantasy prequel series, aptly summarizes the pressure on this project. With a hefty budget — season one is estimated to have cost around $465 million — expectations are high when it comes to the next installment. Just how high — and how much — are details that showrunners J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay are not willing to delve into.
“What we will say is this: Season one was huge and epic. We think we got even more onscreen in season two,” McKay tells The Hollywood Reporter at London’s BFI Southbank.

We’ve previously heard that the film is set to star Evil Dead Rise actress Lily Sullivan and David Rysdahl, whose credits include Fargo season 5, The Family, No Exit, Black Mirror, Oppenheimer, and Booger. The news of Doumit’s involvement was broken by Deadline today.
As mentioned, SOULM8TE is set in the same world as the 2022 film M3GAN and its upcoming sequel M3GAN 2.0, which is aiming for a June 27, 2025 theatrical release. These films come from the recently merged companies Atomic Monster (headed up by James Wan) and Blumhouse Productions (headed up by Jason Blum).

My Next Guest Needs No Introduction With David Letterman. Miley Cyrus in My Next Guest Needs No Introduction With David Letterman. Cr. Terence Patrick/Netflix © 2024 Since Hannah Montana ended its run in 2011, Miley Cyrus has devoted nearly all of her efforts to building up her music career. And she’s done so very successfully: Each of her four studio albums (plus an EP) have made the Top 5, and she’s had a pair of No. 1 singles, with Wrecking Ball and last year’s Flowers, which is still on the Adult Contemporary chart. Meanwhile, her acting career has, for the most part, been on the back burner. With the occasional exception, like her excellent 2019 episode of Black Mirror, most of her screen appearances have come as, well, Miley Cyrus. In an interview with W Magazine, though, Cyrus announced that she’s once again interested in pursuing her acting career, provided the right roles come along.

Futurama not only entertains with its witty humor and charismatic characters, but also surprises with its ability to predict our reality.
Since its debut in 1999, the show has introduced many futuristic technologies and events that later became reality.
1. The Series Has Landed – Season 1 Episode 2
The team sets off for Luna Park. As they approach, the team admires the scenery and make plans for the evening – checking out the rides and rescuing the local aliens.
Thanks to Bender's skills and Leela's leadership, they solve any problems that arise, and Amy suggests asking her parents for money to pay for new rides, which leads to an argument among the team about using her family's wealth.
In this episode, Amy was briefly shown playing virtual skeeball. This was the closest the creators have come to showing what the virtual reality headsets will look like and how to use them.

For most people, period pieces can be a hard sell because most audiences crave action and laughter.
But The Serpent Queen’s writers bring unprecedented expertise to their storytelling.
This series is rife with glitz and glamour with a shine that can be seen reflecting off any dagger.
However, in The Serpent Queen, the real danger lies not in the weapons but in the people who don’t need a blade to cut down their enemies.

Science fiction is probably the trickiest genre to nail, be it literature or cinema. While it offers you endless possibilities, you also have to put in a lot of effort to properly set up a world and then dream up a story exciting enough to appeal to your audience. And it’s doubly difficult when it comes to short films. All you have is about ten or twenty minutes. You’ve got to introduce your audience to a world that’s not theirs or something that doesn’t happen in this world, and then tell a story that makes them think. This is an extremely difficult feat to achieve, and the reason I’m being this emphatic is director Nick Azzaro’s short film, Alpha 27, in under ten minutes, has managed to do everything that I’ve mentioned already.
The biggest challenge here is to draw the audience into its world.

Tom Goodman-Hill is a face you should already know — because he’s done it all.
An actor who has been in the game for 30 years, Goodman-Hill’s résumé includes appearances on staple British television shows such as Doctor Who, Silent Witness, Call the Midwife and Doc Martin. The 56-year-old also appeared in Charlie Brooker’s Black Mirror and the 2014 period thriller The Imitation Game.
But a role unlike he’s ever played before came to fruition with Richard Gadd‘s wildly successful Netflix series Baby Reindeer, which follows Donny, an amateur comedian played by Gadd, as he is stalked and harassed across several years. In the show, his stalker, Martha (Jessica Gunning), sends Donny over 41,000 emails, 744 tweets, 100 pages of letters and 350 hours of voicemails. Audiences watched in horror as she sexually assaulted him, derailed his relationships and threatened his family. Eventually, she is jailed.

Exclusive: David Rysdahl (Fargo) has been tapped to star opposite Lily Sullivan in SOULM8TE, Atomic Monster and Blumhouse’s new film out of the M3GAN universe, Deadline has learned.
In the film from director Kate Dolan (You Are Not My Mother), Rysdahl plays a man who acquires an Artificially Intelligent android (Sullivan) to help him cope with the recent loss of his deceased wife. In an attempt to create a truly sentient partner, the man inadvertently turns a harmless lovebot into a deadly soulmate.
Dolan is directing after rewriting the original draft from Rafael Jordan (Salvage Marines), which was based on a story by James Wan, Ingrid Bisu and Jordan. Sources tell us this film is a deal more risqué than M3GAN, falling in the tradition of ’90s domestic thrillers but with a modern, technological twist.
Wan and Jason Blum will produce, with Michael Clear and Judson Scott...

After nearly two years, “Industrie” is back for a third season. And this time around, the HBO drama is chronicling a financial saga that will pull its antiheroes into the upper echelons of the financial, political and media worlds.
Created by Mickey Down and Konrad Kay, “Industrie” first premiered in 2020 as a steamy and high-stakes drama about a group of new hires at a top-tier London bank. Not all of those newbies lasted, but Down and Kay have found new ways to dive into this ever-stressful world. This season, they’re diving into the world of ethical investment through a new character played by Kit Harington.
Consider this your guide on who’s who in the cast of “Industrie” Season 3.

Did you hear the miracle about the animator who was messing around and made a — checks notes — depiction of a Minion crucified on the cross? A cohort of TikTok spammers from all around the world may have led you to believe that you missed that one in Sunday School.
Hundreds of TikTokers, who all appear to be real humans, are mysteriously using the same exact scripted voiceover for the inspiring tale of the Devout Animator and the Gru-cified Minion: “If you scroll away from this video then what are you doing?!,” they entreat. “Look, look, look!” they plead. “One day, an animator was messing around and he created this picture of a little Minion who died on the cross.” And lo and behold, you see a Minion bowing its yellow bald head in Golgotha.

Amanda Garcia has seemingly turned over a new leaf upon her arrival for The Challenge: Battle of the Eras.
Her returns come after a brief hiatus of a few MTV seasons, as she last appeared on Spies, Lies & Allies and got eliminated by rival Tori Deal.
In a Season 40 Launch Special, Amanda is among the featured cast members presented as part of the Era 3 team. However, that team also features Tori.
From the start, Amanda reiterates that she’ll never be able to like or be friends with Tori on or away from the show.
However, a few interesting segments and storylines featured Die Herausforderung’s “devil” Amanda.
That included confessing her admiration for two of her Og castmates, Tina Barta and Rachel Robinson. She considered them the original mean girls on Die Herausforderung who paved the way for her.
She also seemed to patch things up with another castmate...

Apart from trying to avoid back-to-back Stephen King, trust me, he will be coming back this year as its kind of inevitable, I also like looking at modern horror adaptations. This is two-fold as the internet has done the 80s and 90s to death but also because there are some genuinely original and fantastic IPs that have yet to get the spotlight they deserve. The most recent example of this is The Ruins which is a horror one hit wonder from Scott Smith, yeah, he did other things but that was his only horror novel, and that’s a cool and original piece. The Ritual wasn’t one of those immediate releases where the book was churned into a movie before the book had time to cook and it is the only adaptation from a very U.K author’s works. While the movie did extremely well on Netflix and...

Josh Hartnett has always wanted to do what was least expected of him. What might be expected of a broad-chested, six-foot-three-inch football player turned actor with a strong jaw and deep-set brown eyes? Roles like himbo prom king. Daring pilot. Brave soldier. Which, sure, he has played. (See: The Virgin Suicides. Pearl Harbor. Black Hawk Down.) But especially since breaking out in a few of those roles at the turn of the millennium, he’s done everything he can to subvert the teen-idol persona, pursuing slightly offbeat characters who exist,...

Netflix is making its virtual “Geeked Week” fan event a reality with the show’s first in-person component in Atlanta this September.
While the entire Geeked Week celebration will run Sept. 16-Sept. 19, the majority of the experience surrounding TV, film and gaming news from Netflix will take place online (as the three previous versions of Geeked Week have), and then conclude with the real-life event held in Atlanta on the evening of the final day. No details have been released regarding the venue for the in-person show.
This fourth annual edition of Geeked Week, first launched by Netflix in 2021, marks the first in-person person, live component for this event — which the streamer designates as “celebrating Netflix’s biggest global fandoms” and “most beloved Geeked titles” — but comes on the heels of several other in-person events put on by the streamer, including the Tudum fan event (which featured live show in...

The role of Superman is undeniably one of the most coveted in the superhero genre. For fans and actors alike, it’s a dream part, offering a lot to take in and enjoy. However, Hollywood often sees actors misjudging the potential of certain roles. Take Sean Connery, for instance, who famously turned down the role of Gandalf due to a lack of understanding.
Recently, we reported that renowned British actor Jude Law had once declined the opportunity to play Superman. Now, we have another intriguing tale: Josh Hartnett, a notable actor, also turned down the Superman role—twice!
The actor in question is Josh Hartnett, a former global star who chose to step back from the blinding lights of Hollywood to protect his mental and physical health. He is now enjoying a happy and peaceful life while successfully reviving his career.

The role of Superman is undoubtedly one of the most exciting ones in the world of superheroes. So, if you’re into that sort of thing, there is certainly a lot to take from the role, and it is one of the best roles that an actor can get. But, as it often turns out in Hollywood, some actors tend to have a false perception of a role at one point. Just remember that Sean Connery (in)famously rejected the role of Gandalf because he did not understand it, whatever that means.
Not that long ago, we reported how famous British actor Jude Law rejected the role of Superman some time ago, but we now have a story about another famous actor who rejected the role, but not once – he rejected it twice!

La leyenda del Hombre del Saco revive en este espeluznante filme dirigido por Colm McCarthy. © Lionsgate
Lionsgate ha desvelado el tráiler oficial de la película de terror Bagman, centrada en la leyenda urbana del hombre del saco.
Durante siglos y en todas las culturas, los padres han advertido a sus hijos del legendario Hombre del Saco, que arrebata a niños inocentes y los mete en su vil bolsa podrida para no volver a verlos jamás. Patrick McKee (Claflin) escapó por los pelos de un encuentro semejante cuando era niño, que le dejó cicatrices duraderas durante toda su vida adulta. Ahora, el atormentador de la infancia de Patrick ha regresado, amenazando la seguridad de su esposa Karina (Thomas) y su hijo Jake.

First came Baghead, now get ready for Bagman. Take a look at the first trailer for Colm McCarthy’s Bagman.
Lionsgate have released the first trailer for Colm McCarthy’s Bagman, which will find Sam Claflin tormented by a mystical, terrifying creature.
Take a look at the first Bagman trailer below.
Claflin is joined by The Good Doctor’s Antonia Thomas and Aftersun’s Frankie Corio in the film’s cast. John Hulme penned the script.
The legend of Bagman is deeply rooted in folklore. Many cultures have a version of the child-snatching monster, sometimes also called Sack Man. In the film, Claflin’s Ptsd-ridden Patrick is forced to confront the Bagman after narrowly escaping his grip as a child.

Josh Hartnett is opening up about walking away from Hollywood.
In an interview with The Guardian published Sunday, the Trap actor reflected on why he went from mega fame to keeping a low-key profile over the years. After he stopped working for 18 months at the time, Hartnett left Los Angeles, moved back home and changed the films he expressed interest in starring in.
Despite having a Hollywood trajectory that led to great success with films such as Pearl Harbor and Black Hawk Down and even notably turning down the role of Superman twice, Hartnett noted that there was no clear line between “happy Josh and unhappy Josh” and he explained, “People’s attention to me at the time was borderline unhealthy.”
“There were incidents. People showed up at my house. People that were stalking me,” he said.
When he was 27, he revealed, “a guy showed up at one of my premieres with a gun,...

When the Bagman comes for his family this time, will he be able to get rid of him?

The horror genre has extensively covered the topic of resurrecting loved ones and then learning that you have to let go so that the dead can rest in peace and the living can move forward in life. And with advancements in technology, storytellers in the sci-fi genre also started imagining what it’d be like if we start holding on to our loved ones long after they are gone. Black Mirror’s San Junipero and Be Right Back continue to be two of the most memorable takes on this concept as they talked about mortality and whether or not technology will ever be able to replicate something as fleeting as love and youth. An episode of Extrapolations, titled 2068: The Going Away Party, used cloud-based storage space that doubled as a “heavenly abode” to comment on classism during dystopian times. Movies like Transcendence and Replicas talked about the pitfalls of...

Welcome to the new era of Brazilian Cinema! The newest Netflix original film ‘Bionic’ (‘Biônicos’ in Portuguese) takes place in Brazil in the year 2035, where a highly technology dominated world is the backdrop of the dystopian thriller written by Josefina Trotta and directed by Afonso Poyart. In a reality where bionic prosthetics dictate the sporting scene, the rivalry between the Santos sisters takes them down a dark and mischievous path. Maria Santos (Jessica Córes) dreams of competing against her bionic sister, Gabi Santos (Gabz), but a just competition is impossible when Gabi has indefinitely enhanced ability with her bionic prosthetic leg, even against a real prodigy like Maria. In a world where Paralympic athletes with their bionic prosthetics have superhuman stardom and completely overshadow non-bionic athletes, a fair play between them is simply beyond the bounds of possibility. To achieve her goal and be the best at Long Jump and...

If you’ve ever found yourself questioning the nature of your reality, you’ve arrived at the right list. One of the reasons mind-benders are perennially popular is their versatility. Some incorporate elements of science fiction and horror, while others are just about ordinary people getting into extraordinary situations. It’s a genre that’s open to interpretation; the only real requirement is that they make you think.
There are so many engrossing mind-benders that we couldn’t limit ourselves to only shows or just movies, which means you’re getting recommendations for both. Our picks include the groundbreaking anthology Black Mirror, time-loop series Russian Doll, and the hallucinatory film Spiderhead, among others. There are plenty of options here to keep you busy — and keep you guessing — for a while.

Have you ever wondered what “Love Island” would be like if it were set in the 1300s? Netflix’s new dark-comedy series “The Decameron” will answer all of your questions.
The series, created by Kathleen Jordan and executive produced by “Orange Is the New Black” and “Weeds” alum Jenji Kohan, is loosely based on Italian Author Giovanni Boccacio’s short story collection from the mid-14th century. The plot begins after “The Black Death strikes hard in the Italian countryside in 1348, and a handful of nobles retreat to a grand villa with their servants. But what starts as a wine-soaked sex romp descends into a race for survival in this soapy dark comedy,” according to the official description.
Keep reading to find out what stars are traveling back in time to the 1340s in our complete “The Decameron” cast and character guide. The show is now streaming on Netflix.
