Jack Black Gossip

The lasting impression of the comedy Central Intelligence is that Kevin Hart and Dwayne Johnson are a terrific screen duo. They must have known that, too, because just eighteen months later, they’ve reunited for the Jumanji sequel/reboot, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle. Full Story

Baywatch sh*t the bed last month, but before that, F8 of the Furious was a monster hit. So it’s been a rollercoaster year for Dwayne Johnson Full Story

I’m inclined to go easy on Kung Fu Panda 3 because Norm of the North is so f*cking bad, and indeed, it is better than that garbage movie. But despite some pretty flashy animation, Kung Fu Panda 3 is not especially good. It’s basically Kung Fu Panda, just with more. More what? More everything. Full Story

Kate Hudson was at the People’s Choice Awards last night as a presenter. She’s been presenting a lot the last few months, non? She is The Presenter. She’ll be presenting at the Golden Globes on Sunday too. She’s always at the Golden Globes. This year, they’ll tell you that it’s because of Kung Fu Panda 3. Full Story

I used to get in trouble for reading Goosebumps in church. They were pretty much the only kids’ books I actually read as a kid, and at one point I had the whole set. As I grew older, though, and I graduated to more mature forms of horror, I was happy to leave Goosebumps behind, eventually giving my set of books to a little kid down the street who liked scary stories. Full Story

I know Lainey wrote about Justin and Selena’s Snapchat today, but can I just say, loud and proud, I am pro Justin and Selena! Very pro. The heart wants what it wants. And here is Justin performing a private concert for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Full Story

I know there are a few of you out there who are into James Marsden, but he doesn’t leave a lot of openings, as it were. So enjoy him, looking super hot in a douchebaggy way, in the new trailer for The D Train, a comedy with Jack Black that premiered earlier this year at Sundance. I prefer Black in uptight weirdo mode (see also: Bernie), and I’m also into the presence of Kathryn Hahn and Enlightened’s Mike White. Full Story

What a night for Musical Theatre Nerds! We are legion and we are getting ever stronger. And it surprised nobody that if you’re doing a musical sequence, you get Anna Kendrick to come on board and pick things up. And Anna Kendrick will deliver for you, no matter what. I mean if I were being demanding, I would say that I wish she’d done something other than cutesy Cinderella – there are very few people who are going to see The Last Five Years and know that she can sing in a modern way. Full Story

As mentioned earlier, Angelina Jolie and the cast of Kung Fu Panda, including Jack Black and Dustin Hoffman, were at the Palais today for a presser and a photo call. Dylan and I saw Jack Black in Old Cannes last night walking up St Antoine to have dinner. The stars don't usually roll like that here. Full Story

Emily Blunt and Jack Black were photographed in London today outside the BBC, beginning promotion on Gulliver’s Travels, due in theatres on December 22, hoping to contend for the holiday box office crown. Earlier this week, Sarah predicted that Gulliver along with what she’s calling “Pedobear: The Movie” ie Yogi Bear (starring the voice of Justin Timberlake) would be the two bombs of the season. Full Story
