The Netflix division of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, The Defenders, had a premiere in New York last night, for their upcoming team-up series which starts streaming later this month. Everyone turned out—except for Sigourney Weaver, who doesn’t need to—and my best-dressed prize goes to Mike Colter Full Story

Katherine Heigl stars as Tessa, the uptight Stepford ex of a man so bland his name makes no impression, but he looks like he’s the type to wear North Face and sandals at the same time, and he’s played by Geoff Stults (Zoo, Seventh Heaven). Full Story

SPOILERS Mike Colter returns as Luke Cage, the stoic bartender we first met in Jessica Jones. Following the events of that show, Luke has retreated to Harlem, where his late wife’s last living relative, a barbershop proprietor known as Pop (Frankie Faison), has given Luke a job sweeping up in the barbershop. Full Story

“The world is ready for a bulletproof black man.” That’s what Luke Cage showrunner Cheo Hodari Coker said at Comic-Con in July.

Ahead of the show’s release on Friday, Netflix has dropped the final trailer. Full Story

Ryan Reynolds, Scott Speedman, Rosario Dawson, and Mireille Enos joined director Atom Egoyan at the photo call for their film The Captive today in Cannes. They all look great. Unfortunately the film…was not well received. Grace Of Monaco was already a bust at the festival and it looks like The Captive is getting similar reviews. Full Story

Rosario Dawson and Michael Fassbender were spotted together in his neighbourhood in London a couple of times this weekend. (Thanks MK!) No confirmation as to whether or not it was more than just a meeting. Or two meetings. And no body language indications either. Still, the prospect is intriguing. Full Story

Second set of James McAvoy photos this week. Click here if you missed the shots from the other day with his wife Anne-Marie Duff. Here he is shooting Danny Boyle’s Trance with Rosario Dawson on Wednesday night. Not much to say, other than enjoy, and . Full Story

She’s pretty attractive in photos, yes. But in person? Jesus. Rosario Dawson is, like, f-cking spectacular. I interviewed her on Sunday for Unstoppable and we were all sitting there, in a line, outside her junket room. When she walked by, in a tight green dress, all of us were momentarily overcome. Full Story

Pink, lavender, whatever... it’s ... objectionable. Like really, really insulting. I mean, that colour, it should be outlawed, with few exceptions, for people over 6, 7 max. And those weird tit cups. And that black bow. And that goddamn feather ruffle skirt. Anna please put a ban on this sh-t. Full Story
