Movie Reviews and Previews Gemma Chan: The First Eternal It has already been a Marvel-heavy year, with WandaVision, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Loki, Black Widow, whatever else I’ve left off this list, and with less than six months to go before the end of 2021, there are still two major Marvel releases yet to come – and By Lainey • Aug 09, 2021 10:42 am
Style Gemma Chan’s Eyes and Moles Gemma Chan is a spokesperson for L’Oreal Paris and since L’Oreal has a big presence at the festival, many of their ambassadors in years past and also this year attend the festival to represent the brand.

Movie Reviews and Previews Chloe Zhao’s Eternals are here A few weeks after a Phase 4 teaser gave us our first glimpse of Chloe Zhao’s Eternals, a teaser trailer has arrived showing us the Eternals in action throughout human history. The sweeping opening shot of a pre-historic cliff is lovely, the crashing waves contrasted with the simplicity of By Sarah • May 25, 2021 01:02 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Chloe Zhao’s Eternals Marvel dropped a super masturbatory Phase 4 teaser this morning, and while it is hilariously self-important, it does include some new upcoming titles, a Fantastic Four promise, and our first look at newly minted Oscar Best Director and Best Picture winner Chloe Zhao’s Eternals. First, let’s talk about By Sarah • May 03, 2021 11:53 am

Here’s the passage in question: This By Lainey • Apr 21, 2021 12:03 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Raya and the Last Dragon’s fellowship of butt-kickery Disney’s Raya and the Last Dragon is one of the few big movies coming out in the next few months—it’s pretty much this and Godzilla vs Kong, kind of a “one for me, one for you” deal with parents and kids—and there is a new trailer By Sarah • Jan 27, 2021 01:26 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Kit and Gemma kiss for Eternals Marvel’s The Eternals is still shooting in London. The movie comes out in November which, yes, is toward the end of the year but it’s not that far away considering how long the post production process can be for some of these projects. And also marketing. Eternals is By Lainey • Jan 23, 2020 12:01 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Kit Harington and Gemma Chan are Eternals, too On Friday afternoon, Deadline ran a hilariously skimpy report that Kit Harington would be joining the MCU, offering no details or even vague options of what he could be doing. During D23 his involvement was confirmed when it was announced he would be joining The Eternals as Dane Whitman, aka By Sarah • Aug 26, 2019 12:45 pm
Girl Sh-t Constance & Gemma?! So far today, we’ve speculated about a queer celebrity hookup and we’re about to get into a possible beef between two Asian actresses. Is this equality? LOL, obviously that’s a joke of a question. Backstory: on Friday, after Constance Wu tantrum-ed on social media about Fresh Off By Lainey • May 13, 2019 12:58 pm
Met Gala 2019 Katy, JLo, Gemma, and Gigi: the Met Gala silver headpieces No one can say that Katy Perry doesn’t put in the effort. When you walk the Met Gala carpet as a chandelier, that’s effort. Anna Wintour certainly appreciates that, year after year, Katy brings her brand of spectacle to the event. And never has a Met Gala theme By Lainey • May 07, 2019 07:49 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Asian April I’m exaggerating here. It’s two magazine covers, that hardly qualifies as a month conquered. At the same time, it feels like a big deal to me. One day, maybe it won’t feel like anything at all because it won’t be unusual. For now, though, it’s By Lainey • Mar 22, 2019 11:42 am
Gorgessity Brie & Gemma: Outfits of the Week Of course the Outfit of the Week is going to be Captain Marvel related today. Outfits, plural though!

Oscars 2019 Michelle and Gemma: Crazy Rich Couture A quick aside before we get to Michelle Yeoh and Gemma Chan’s red carpet looks – remember all that business about fighting over presenters and the Academy telling people that if they presented at any other award shows, they wouldn’t be able to come to the Oscars? One of By Lainey • Feb 25, 2019 06:07 am
Movie Reviews and Previews The end of a Crazy Rich season Crazy Rich Asians was not nominated for Oscar last week so the SAGs was the last awards season stop for the cast, at least until the sequel comes out. Which won’t be for a while since director Jon M Chu is working with Lin-Manual Miranda on the film adaptation By Lainey • Jan 28, 2019 08:48 am
Style Michelle Yeoh: Globes Best Dressed (Duana) As Sandra Oh pointed out, this year’s Golden Globes – while still overwhelmingly Caucasian – had exponentially more Asian representation than ever before, due in part to the cast of Crazy Rich Asians, who really didn’t get enough play, but came out hard in the fashion game nonetheless.
