Movie Reviews and Previews TV Show About a Movie Star Now Becoming a Movie Entourage, like its HBO predecessor Sex and the City, is being turned into a movie.

Quiveration Nicholas Hoult joins Twitter Nooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY???? This was my reaction last night when Sarah messaged me that Nicholas Hoult had joined Twitter.

Movie Reviews and Previews Can’t Unsee: Benedict Cumberbatch edition In a piece of fantastical timing, I had no sooner defended my crush on Benedict Cumberbatch (again), than Dreamworks released the first still from The Fifth Estate, showing Cumberbatch in character as Wikileaks founder Julian Assange.
