Elvis and Dune: Part Two actor Austin Butler is to star in Darren Aronofsky’s crime thriller, Caught Stealing.
Austin Butler has developed a taste for working with directors of a certain merit, and you can’t argue with the results. Since 2019, Butler has acted in films by Jim Jarmusch, Quentin Tarantino, Baz Luhrman (in his breakout role as Elvis Presley) and Dennis Villeneuve. The latter saw him take the role of Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen in the recently-released Dune: Part Two, and there’s no arguing that he was able to take a relatively limited amount of screen time and produce an antagonist who will live long in the memory.
Next, Butler has The Bikeriders coming up, directed by Jeff Nichols. Then there’s Eddington with Ari Aster, not to mention those rumours regarding a role in Michael Mann’s upcoming sequel to Heat. It’s an impressive list and yet,...

The film received mixed reviews.

While some praised it for its hilarious approach to the concerning issues, others found the satire lacking depth and criticized its heavy-handed and chaotic storytelling.

The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes cleverly alludes to previous Hunger Games movies, which take place in the future of this setting. Pieces of dialogue in The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes shed light on the development of the Hunger Games in the Capitol. Characters and events in the prequel parallel those in the original Hunger Games movies.
Like many movie prequels, The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes cleverly alludes to the previous movies in its franchise. Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes takes place 64 years before Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) wins the Hunger Games and any connections between the movies might seem far-fetched. The premise of the prequel nods to Katniss' story, wherein a young Coriolanus Snow (Tom Blyth) mentors Lucy Gray Baird (Rachel Zegler) another 16-year-old girl from District 12 who is selected for the 10th Hunger Games. However, Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes cleverly references the other movies in subtle ways.

From winning the Oscar for Silver Linings Playbook, and achieving global fame for her appearance in The Hunger Games franchise, Jennifer Lawrence has created an envious career for herself. But while the actress is considered one of the most cheerful and bankable stars in the entertainment industry, Lawrence once unveiled the dark side of Hollywood.

Jensen Ackles' experience in notable projects could make him an ideal Cyclops for the MCU. Glen Powell is the perfect actor to play the McU's Cyclops. Sam Claflin's ability to bring both seriousness and fun to his roles could make him a perfect fit for a revamped Cyclops.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe will debut its version of the X-Men in the future, and thanks to the animated Disney+ series X-Men '97 making Cyclops a prominent character once again, a lot of attention has turned to the hero's casting. Cyclops has been mainly been played by two actors in live-action. James Marsden first gave life to Scott Summers in the original timeline of Fox's X-Men movies, with Tye Sheridan then taking on the role of Cyclops for the younger X-Men movie continuity.
Both actors were perfectly cast for the role but were given the short end of the stick. While...

Judd Apatow does not believe comedy movies are dead in theaters. While the genre has largely moved to streaming in recent years, Apatow recently told Vulture that all it will take is one comedy blockbuster in theaters to swing the pendulum away from streaming. Actually, that may have already happened in his eyes.
“I would say that’s wrong because the highest-grossing comedy last year made over a billion dollars,” Apatow said when asked about movie theaters no longer being a venue for comedy movies. “‘Barbie’ was a comedy, you know?”
“But isn’t that like saying a Marvel movie is a comedy?” Vulture asked.
“I don’t think so. It’s not a drama,” Apatow responded. “There are some emotional moments in it, but it’s just wall-to-wall jokes. There’s something about it where I feel like no one wants to give comedy the win there. Like, why...

Anne Hathaway won an Oscar. Then her career took a turn for the worse.
The actress says in a new profile that co-hosting the 2013 Oscars and taking home the honor for best supporting actress for Les Misérables marked a tipping point where her online and media reputation turned “toxic” — to the point where she says it cost her movie roles.
The viral phenomenon dubbed “Hathahate” had no actual cause, other than the actress enjoying a surge in exposure and popularity that got her dubbed “annoying” by some, taking her from It Girl to Not-It Girl thanks to some online backlash.
After winning the Oscar, Hathaway told Vanity Fair, “a lot of people wouldn’t give me roles, because they were so concerned about how toxic my identity had become online.”
Then director Christopher Nolan came along, casting her in his blockbuster film Interstellar (2014).

X-Men '97 brings back the iconic animated series and with it some legendary X-Men villains. Apocalypse failed to deliver in the Fox film because of a poor script and poor direction. X-Men '97 can adapt the Age of Apocalypse and redeem the X-Men villain.
X-Men '97 finally dropped its two-episode debut after much anticipation as fans have been champing at the bit for a chance to revisit the wildly popular world of X-Men: The Animated Series. While nostalgia is to blame for a lot of that, X-Men '97 has proven with its first two episodes that it's going to offer far more than nostalgia alone. Not only are the performances and characterizations perfectly on-point, but the storytelling is exceptional so far as well.

After taking an extended break from acting, Jennifer Lawrence marked her return to showbiz with Adam McKay’s Don’t Look Up, which starred several high-profile actors. Among them included an elated Timothée Chalamet, who was coming off to sets after spending 14 days by himself in the quarantine, as Covid was far from over when the production for the film kickstarted.
However, it seems his excitement got the better of him during his first day on the set, as Lawrence recalled being annoyed by the Wonka Star’s excessive enthusiasm.

Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson and Liam Hemsworth are so central to the success of the Hunger Games franchise that it is impossible to imagine the movies without them on the screen.
However, none of them were guaranteed their roles in the blockbusters.
Believe it or not, nine other actors auditioned to play Katniss before Jennifer was cast as the arrow-slinging star. Liam faced off against three other actors, too.
After Jennifer joined the movie, five stars were in the running to play Peeta Mellark, the boy with the bread. Of course, the role ultimately went to Josh, and he played it exceptionally in all four movies.
But if things had gone differently, who might have starred in the movie alongside Jennifer?

Divergent faced challenges in trying to replicate the success of other YA franchises like The Hunger Games and Twilight. The rush to capitalize on the genre's popularity led to plots and underwhelming writing, as well as numerous changes to the books. Fans of Veronica Roth's novels are hopeful for a second chance to properly adapt the unique and detailed worldbuilding to the screen.
As the genre begins to enjoy something of a resurgence, Screen Rant's Pitch Meeting series is looking back at Divergent. The movie served as an adaptation of Veronica Roth's novel trilogy of the same name, set in a dystopian future in which a young woman finds herself at the heart of the beginning of a revolution to bring down the faction-based society she lives in. Led by Shailene Woodley, the Divergent movies scored generally negative reviews across its three installments, with the first two being modest commercial successes,...

Jaylah in Star Trek Beyond was inspired by Jennifer Lawrence in Winter's Bone, creating a strong female character with a unique backstory. Jaylah was a successful new addition to the Star Trek series, positioning her to potentially join the crew of the USS Enterprise in future films. Sofia Boutella, who played Jaylah, expressed her interest in returning to the Star Trek universe as many questions about Jaylah's species and background remain unanswered.
Star Trek Beyond's new heroine, Jaylah (Sofia Boutella), was inspired by Jennifer Lawrence in one of her early, award-winning roles. Boutella donned elaborate makeup to play Jaylah, the lone survivor of an unknown species who crash-landed on the planet Altamid. Jaylah joined forces with Captain James T.

Going back to When Harry Met Sally…, there’s always been something cozy and likable about the rom-com genre. No Hard Feelings starring Jennifer Lawrence did well last year as a feature and now is up for a sequel.
And Anyone but You has surprised rom-com experts. Its numbers are impressive – 2.8 billion hashtag views on TikTok and a worldwide box office that has surpassed $200 million. The data reminds some of a throwback to the Bridget Jones cycle.
To be sure, rom-coms have become formulaic, especially the Netflix model. But a case could be made that they now emerge as a positive social resource now.

One of the funniest moments at the recent Academy Awards ceremony occurred when Best Supporting Actress nominee Emily Blunt (“Oppenheimer”) and Best Supporting Actor nominee Ryan Gosling (“Barbie”) appeared together to pay a special tribute to the talented stunt performers who are so often overlooked for their indelible contributions to the motion picture industry. Blunt and Gosling traded barbs over their “Barbenheimer” feud — the result of their films competing against each other at the box office as well as the entire awards season. If their chemistry suggested anything, it’s that moviegoers are in for a real treat when their upcoming film “The Fall Guy” drops into theaters in May.
While Blunt and Gosling bluntly made light of their dispute, they weren’t the only Oscar presenters with scores to settle. There were several other big Hollywood stars who reunited on the stage alongside one of their past Oscar rivals,...

Only Tigris and Coriolanus Snow have met Katniss and Lucy Gray in the "Hunger Games" series. Snow had contentious relationships with Lucy Gray and Katniss but during different time periods. Tigris' past connection to Lucy Gray influences her decision to help Katniss during "Mockingjay."
Sixty-four years separate The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes and The Hunger Games, meaning that only two people have known both Lucy Gray Baird and Katniss Everdeen in the series. The Hunger Games franchise, which originated with Suzanne Collins' published trilogy, rose to prominence with the first film in 2012.

In The Hunger Games series, Katniss killing President Coin instead of President Snow surprised many. Still, it was because Coin was revealed to be a ruthless leader with her own political interests. President Coin manipulated the rebellion for her own gain, willing to let people die to achieve her goals while portraying herself as a hero against President Snow's cruel government. By killing Coin, Katniss ensured a chance for a peaceful and fair country, avenged her sister's death, and liberated Panem from the fascist government.
The Hunger Games franchise is still an iconic series of books and movies, with the latter truly cementing the property as an international phenomenon. Main character Katniss Everdeen is now well-known as a movie heroine, with her actions throughout the series affording her a level of depth usually not seen in Young Adult fiction. Amid these were some rather dark developments, which culminated in Katniss killing President Coin.

Emma Stone’s winning moment at the Oscars for Best Actress was met with a lot of confusion. First, the dress broke as she walked up the stage to receive her award.

Given the character’s condition, it might’ve made sense for Katniss to look underfed. But Lawrence didn’t want to promote an unrealistic body image to her fans.
