Political tension and industrywide uncertainty are the prevailing moods heading into Sunday night's 83rd Golden Globes. Hollywood is coming off a disappointing box-office year and now anxiously awaits the fate of one of its most storied studios, Warner Bros. A celebratory mood might be even more elusive given that the wide majority of the performers and filmmakers congregating at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California, oppose the policies of President Donald Trump.

the esteemed Hollywood actress' difficult start in the movie business (she was let go from Universal Studios after her first contract) and her impressive rise to the top (she would star in 100 movies during her career, and by the 1940s, she had already scooped two Oscar wins), but also, her opinions on cooking. "Like many women who work, she detests cooking," Flanner wrote. "She says that a husband who won't fry an egg for his wife when she comes home tired doesn't love her."

A Tesla Diner location could be coming to Palo Alto, as suggested in a recent post on X from Elon Musk. The world's richest person who is poised to become the world's first trillionaire posted on Oct. 31 that, The futuristic Tesla Diner is going well. Probably makes sense to open one near our Giga Texas HQ in Austin and engineering HQ in Palo Alto.

Us normies aren't the only ones who like to channel our favorite films around Halloween. The fourth annual Vogue World was Hollywood themed, with celebrities and models highlighting the intersection of fashion and cinema as they strutted down a runway set up on the Paramount lot. The entire October 26 event - which featured nods to Black Panther, the late Diane Keaton, and more - was meant to channel a film shoot; Baz Luhrmann was even there to oversee a director's cut.

First, at OpenAI DevDay, Sam Altman presented the new Sora app as a gift to content creators. If anything, he suggested, OpenAI was being too censorious by not allowing people to make even more kinds of AI videos. "On the whole, creators, rights holders, people are very excited about the potential of this," Altman said during a media Q&A in San Francisco on Monday that I attended. "They believe it will deepen connection. It's kind of like a new generation of fanfiction."

There are people-pleasers and then there is this affable brawler-turned-actor, who appears to regard the contentment of the world's multiplex-goers as his personal responsibility. Whether in vehicles comic (Central Intelligence, Baywatch), family-oriented (Jumanji, Jungle Cruise), four-wheeled (the Fast & Furious series) or disaster-based (San Andreas, Skyscraper), he is a rip-roaring razzle-dazzler, shiny of scalp and tooth, and so colossal that he isn't merely the circus showman but the whole damn big top too.

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

If I can't do what I want to do, I'm going to quit doing what I've been doing,

How on earth has Charlie Sheen made it to 60? How has he survived decades of cocaine first snorted, then smoked as crack endless parties with alcohol and friends? And his sexual excesses? Did he make enough to cover all the extortion money he gave to sex workers, including one to whom he reportedly paid as much as $1.4 million?

I wasn't involved at all. Aside from like giving feedback on the first draft, and getting the feedback that like, yeah, we're not actually going to address your notes at all... I've left it alone, because it's not my project. They're going to make whatever they're going to make.

I couldn't do it without Naomi. We have a great partnership at home and professionally, so it makes the family juggling act that much easier when we can all be together. We try to keep the kids grounded and away from all of the Hollywood stuff so they can be kids as long as possible,

"Someone asked me what raising three kids and building a career in Hollywood looked like... It looked like spending a lot of time in trailers together."

Gal Gadot expressed disappointment over the box office performance of Snow White, attributing it partly to the backlash from her reluctance to speak against Israel.

Even though it was challenging at times, having kids gave me perspective about what was important in life.

Tom Cruise reportedly rejected President Donald Trump's invitation to receive a Kennedy Center Honor due to scheduling conflicts, as his November calendar is full with a Governors Awards appearance.

"War of the Worlds focuses on the computer screen of Homeland Security officer Will Radford as he monitors a huge network of surveillance videos to keep the country safe."

Lorna Raver, known for her role as Mrs. Ganush in "Drag Me to Hell," passed away at 81. She was noted for her complex performances and contributions to film.

Danny Bensusan opened the Blue Note in Greenwich Village in 1981, becoming home to iconic jazz names. 44 years later, the venue is expanding to Hollywood.

Nicole Kidman is a versatile actor known for her roles in various genres. Critics have rated her highest movies, including "Paddington" and "Flirting," quite highly.

Captain America, often seen as a patriotic figure, has also challenged corrupt government agencies, illustrating that superheroes cannot easily be classified on a political spectrum.

The casting call landscape offers numerous opportunities for actors through various projects such as feature films and scripted shows across the U.S.

“In a twist, Leo DiCaprio has had conversations with Mann about starring” in the long-awaited sequel to the classic movie Heat, which has hit a funding roadblock.

"Even after working on a hit HBO show, which did allow her to buy a house in LA, money was tight. They don't pay actors like they used to, and with streamers, you no longer get residuals."

The idea of 'horror' can manifest in many ways, from monsters to the creeping dread of a failing career, creating a unique and relatable fear.

Social media has been flooded with hundreds of messages yearning for the release of the sequel to a movie that became a phenomenon exactly two decades ago.

John Wilson, a filmmaker, opened Low Cinema, a small theater in Queens, with a focus on showing familiar Hollywood films, starting with a double feature of 'Two Weeks Notice' and a 1903 short.

The sprawling equestrian estate known as the Robert Taylor Ranch, named after its former owner and cinematic icon, just made an appropriately Hollywood-style premiere on the Los Angeles real estate market.
