Movie Reviews and Previews Armie Hammer on Johnny Depp and Leonardo DiCaprio Armie Hammer was on Watch What Happens Live the other day and during Plead The Fifth, an audience member asked him about Johnny Depp. Armie worked with Johnny on The Lone Ranger almost five years ago now.

Movie Reviews and Previews Daniel Craig is bleached and tatted in Nascar’s 11 The first trailer for Steven Soderbergh’s Logan Lucky was released yesterday and it’s one of those automatic, Three Billboards - style I’M IN deals. You don’t even need to finish the trailer before you know whether or not this movie is for you. I knew it By Sarah • May 29, 2017 10:32 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Johnny Depp and a pile of burning money in Pirates of the Caribbean 5 Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales is complete garbage which explains its mediocre-at-best Memorial Day weekend haul—here’s hoping global box office saves it (good luck, the reported $230 million budget is a joke—I’d add at least $100 million). It isn’t just frustrating By Sarah • May 29, 2017 09:48 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Intro for May 29, 2017 Dear Gossips, Memorial Day weekend used to be big at the box office. But as you may have heard, both Pirates 5 and Baywatch, the new major releases this Memorial Day weekend, came in domestically under initial projections. Baywatch, in particular, totally flopped. The Rock isn’t critic-proof??? (Sarah’s By Lainey • May 29, 2017 09:17 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Robert Pattinson: the best actor? Robert Pattinson was in Cannes yesterday to screen Good Time. As I anticipated earlier this month, he and FKA twigs skipped the MET Gala and turned out for the festival instead. Makes sense now in light of the praise Robert is getting for the film, they saved their joint appearance By Lainey • May 26, 2017 11:39 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Blake’s Husband’s Secret The Hollywood Reporter confirmed today that Blake Lively will star in the film adaptation of Liane Moriarty’s book, The Husband’s Secret.

Amazingness Mimi can deflect bullets You need this today. We all need this today. It’s an outrageous Mimi story – are you ready? Will Ferrell and Amy Poehler made a movie together called The House. They asked Mimi to do a cameo. And she agreed. Rob Huebel, who is also in the movie, was on By Lainey • May 25, 2017 03:19 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews A (possible) new Angel and a former Angel Yesterday I posted about the Charlie’s Angels reboot that Elizabeth Banks is directing. As mentioned, even though the script is still being worked on and we’re not yet close to casting (the release date is June 2019), the rumour is that Sony wants Janelle Monae to be one By Lainey • May 25, 2017 12:12 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Johnny Depp’s Pirates weekend Pirates Of The Caribbean 5 opens tomorrow. Which explains why we haven’t seen Johnny Depp this week. He was overseas last week before the Hollywood premiere, and he was definitely in China too, because they’re expecting most of the box office to come from foreign markets, but the By Lainey • May 25, 2017 11:15 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Zac Efron’s Baywatch weekend Baywatch opens today. And the reviews are not good. Most of the reviews single out The Rock’s efforts but also make a point to note that not even he can save the movie. But… is Baywatch the kind of movie that’s critic-proof? Critics can certainly sink some movies. By Lainey • May 25, 2017 10:33 am
BFFs Kirsten Dunst: Happy tears, PDA, and her Lost In Translation? Kirsten Dunst got emotional at the world premiere of The Beguiled in Cannes last night, and shed a happy tear or two while walking the red carpet... just like she said she would minutes earlier. She’s back at the festival a year after serving on the jury, this time By Joanna • May 25, 2017 10:06 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Updating Charlie’s Angels It was announced yesterday that the Charlie’s Angels reboot will hit theatres June 7, 2019, directed by Elizabeth Banks. I don’t know how to feel about this. Because … I really liked the last reboot. Am I remembering it wrong though? Did it actually suck, the version with Drew By Lainey • May 24, 2017 03:20 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews IT’S HAPPENING The Rihanna/ Lupita/ Ava/ Issa movie of Twitter’s dreams is officially happening. When I wrote about the project last month, it was still just a whisper and a sliver of hope in the hearts of anyone with a pulse and a brain. Even though I essentially laid out the By Kathleen • May 24, 2017 11:33 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Top Gun 2019? Tom Cruise is currently promoting The Mummy. He’s been in Australia since Sunday taking pictures with his good friend Russell Crowe and there was even an interview. During that interview, with Sunrise, Tom confirmed that a Top Gun sequel is happening, which we’ve already heard. But he actually By Lainey • May 24, 2017 11:10 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Brad Pitt: tailored in Japan There’s been a lot of bitching about Brad Pitt’s pants lately. But here he is in Japan, for a press conference yesterday and on the red carpet today, in support of War Machine. And it looks like he’s finally been tailored.
