Movie Reviews and Previews Chris Pine has stopped worrying, darling CCXP continued over the weekend, and the upcoming Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves held a panel, and Chris Pine showed up looking 1000% more engaged than he was during the Venice Film Festival while promoting Don’t Worry Darling. Which is a low bar, I know, but I’m By Sarah • Dec 05, 2022 12:26 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Who is the Gary of Dungeons & Dragons? You guys! They got crusty Hugh Grant to Comic Con! And he actually seemed to have a good time! Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves was the only film panel in Hall H yesterday, and Hugh Grant showed up, ready to play. Check him out working the crowd with a By Sarah • Jul 22, 2022 11:07 am
Amazingness Hugh for the Holidays How does a man who so famously hates everything bring out the opposite emotion in us? Hugh Grant is delightful! Does he know how delightful he is? Does he know that the more he curmudgeons, the more joy he brings? Does he know that his self-loathing makes us love him By Lainey • Dec 22, 2020 12:07 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Guy Ritchie’s The Gentlemen I’m going to revise an opinion. I came down pretty hard on the 2015 Guy Ritchie movie, The Man from U.N.C.L.E. Since then, however, Ritchie has made King Arthur— bad—and Aladdin— bland—and now The Gentlemen, which is a return to Ritchie’s technical By Sarah • Jan 28, 2020 04:28 pm
Hugh Grant Charlie, Matthew, and Hugh steals the show There is no shortage of miserable f-cks in Hollywood, especially during award season. And, generally, it’s not all that fun watching someone hate their job. Unless that person can make hating their job – and, really, hating everything – super entertaining. Hugh Grant has this special gift. I have grown to By Lainey • Jan 14, 2020 12:44 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews The Gentlemen seems past its sell-by date Guy Ritchie is following the billion-dollar success of Aladdin by going back to his roots and making an English gangster movie, The Gentlemen. The trailer boasts “From the director of Sherlock Holmes and Snatch”, no mention of Aladdin despite it being Ritchie’s most successful film. It’s almost like By Sarah • Oct 03, 2019 11:44 am
Amazingness Intro for August 16, 2019 Dear Gossips, I’ve been saving this all week, because this is Friday content. What I typically need on Fridays in this space is a story or a celebrity who can deliver joy. Would Hugh Grant ever have imagined that it would be him? But that’s the point. He By Lainey • Aug 16, 2019 09:28 am
Award Season Campaigning Let Billy Porter host a truth-telling roundtable Award season roundtable roulette continues, and this time, it’s the drama dudes up to bat. The roundtable features Stephan James (Homecoming), Diego Luna (Narcos), Richard Madden (Bodyguard), Billy Porter (Pose), Hugh Grant (A Very English Scandal), and Sam Rockwell (Fosse/Verdon). That’s a solid group, and just as By Sarah • Jun 07, 2019 12:32 pm
Award Season Campaigning Intro for June 6, 2019 Dear Gossips, Let’s open today with what I sent Duana last night – “for your joy” is how I titled the message. Because I came down with a cold on Sunday that I think I may have passed on to her, as she was starting to feel it yesterday. There By Lainey • Jun 06, 2019 08:49 am
Gorgessity Julia in fair Verona How could I resist? Julia and Juliet are close enough and here’s Julia Roberts, looking UNREAL, in Verona today shooting an ad campaign. Her hair is slighhhhhtly shorter, right? It’s a good length for her. I like how the layers are framing her face. Then again, I just By Lainey • May 30, 2019 04:26 pm
Style Hugh & Timmy: SAG tablemates At one point during the broadcast last night, the camera cut away to Hugh Grant and Timothee Chalamet, sitting next to each other, and I immediately needed more. I needed a microphone at that table recording the conversation. Was there even a conversation? Hugh Grant is famously awkward. Duana lost By Lainey • Jan 28, 2019 01:44 pm
Amazingness Intro for July 3, 2018 Dear Gossips, We never imagined at the beginning of this year that Hugh Grant would end up being one of our favourite celebrities of 2018. But it was Duana who picked up on it at the Golden Globes and he has continued to be a source of so much joy. By Lainey • Jul 03, 2018 09:00 am
Amazingness Are you “just a girl…standing in front of a boy”… Asking him to love her? Hugh Grant, in typical Hugh Grant accidental fashion, became Duana’s favourite at the Golden Globes earlier this year when he stepped on stage to introduce Dunkirk after being introduced as the star of Paddington 2. I mean, look at him. And then! For that By Lainey • May 03, 2018 11:31 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Justice for Paddington 2 Paddington was a nice surprise in 2015, and that movie and its sequel, Paddington 2, have something in common besides the eponymous bear—criminally bad marketing campaigns. Warner Brothers rescued Paddington 2 from The Weinstein Company late last year, but then they just sort of set it adrift, dumping it By Sarah • Jan 17, 2018 03:55 pm
Amazingness Intro for January 10, 2018 Dear Gossips, Never expected Hugh Grant to be a high point this week. He continues to delight the people who are delighted by him. This, for us here, is credit to Duana, who has not stopped being delighted by Hugh since she posted about him, while crying from laughter, and By Lainey • Jan 10, 2018 09:00 am
Amazingness Duana’s favourite thing…continued Duana wrote the Sarah Jessica Parker/Hugh Grant Golden Globes post yesterday. But, as you may have read, it turned into a Hugh Grant-only post, not because she isn’t into SJP (she is) but because, well, it could really only have been about Hugh Grant. Hugh was introduced as By Lainey • Jan 09, 2018 10:28 am
