TV Updates Timothy Olyphant is going to space again Noah Hawley, who got his start on Bones before going on to create and show-run the much-admired series Legion and Fargo is next tackling Alien by way of a prequel series.

Style Our very little Wonka treat Monday’s photocall for Wonka in London was a relatively lowkey affair, given that Timothee Chalamet, one of the few men who is a true red carpet star, is involved.

What Else What Else? Disney’s annus horibilis continues as Wish becomes their first film in 20 years to be certified “rotten” on Rotten Tomatoes—as Disney itself, not Marvel or Lucasfilm or one of their other subsidiaries.

TV Updates Team Beef Big night for Team Beef at the Gothams, as Ali Wong won Outstanding Performance in a New Series and Beef won Breakthrough Television Under 40 Minutes. Can I just say?

Movie Reviews and Previews Coop and Carey at the Gothams Another “icon and creator” honoree at the Gotham Awards was Maestro, which received the Cultural Icon and Creator Tribute. This delivered Bradley Cooper and Carey Mulligan to the red carpet, so it worked. But then, Maestro is expected to be a major player all awards season—Gold Derby is predicting By Sarah • Nov 28, 2023 01:41 pm
Gorgessity Anne Hathaway three ways As previously noted, Anne Hathaway has never been sexier than she is right now. She is clearly feeling herself, which means she looks good in basically anything, as evidenced by her busy day yesterday.

Style A brief Wonka break Before we get back to Gotham Awards madness, let’s take a brief break for the Wonka photocall yesterday in London. The actual premiere is today, which is why, I assume, everyone saved their best looks for later.

Movie Reviews and Previews Intro for November 28, 2023 Dear Gossips, The Gotham Awards, the first relevant awards of Oscar season, were last night in New York.

Celebrity Social Media Celebrity Social Media, November 27, 2023 After so much Bennifer news today, checking in on Jennifer Garner (I lowkey don’t love how she gets shoved aside in the Bennifer narrative, she supported Ben Affleck through some real sh-t and came through it with her grace and sense of humor intact). She’s doing fine, dressing By Sarah • Nov 27, 2023 03:19 pm
TV Updates Charles Melton avoids the trap Lainey gets full credit for engineering the Charles Melton hype train since 2019.
