As some kid from Minnesota once sang, "the times, they are a-changin'." Following its initial theatrical release in December of 2024, Bob Dylan biopic "A Complete Unknown" became available on VOD at the end of February. Then, on March 27th, it was made available to stream on Hulu for subscribers to that service. As of this writing, the film is currently number one on Hulu's top charts, making it the most watched film on the service right now.

Generally, this shouldn't be too surprising at all. Hulu has long had ties with Disney and 20th Century Studios, the parent companies of Searchlight Pictures, which distributes "A Complete Unknown," and most 20th Century/Searchlight releases do well on the service as a result. In addition, the film was a very buzzworthy release, becoming a bit of a dark horse contender during this past awards season. This was especially the case for star Timothée Chalamet,...

Ranking James Mangold’s Top 5 Highest-Grossing Films ( Photo Credit – Instagram )

Girl, Interrupted, The Wolverine, and Logan are some of the movie names known by cinephiles, and the man behind them is James Mangold. He received his first Oscar nomination for Best Director for the musical biopic A Complete Unknown, featuring Timothee Chalamet as Bob Dylan. There are still a few weeks before the Oscars 2025 take place. For now, let us take a look at the director’s top five highest-grossing films worldwide. Scroll below for the deets.

About

Mangold was born in New York City and is the son of artists Robert Mangold and Sylvia Plimack Mangold. According to his Wikipedia page, he attended the California Institute of the Arts Film/Video program. While studying at the CalArts School of Theater as an actor, he directed a promotional documentary for Disney and General Motors called Future View.

Fans can now watch an underrated 19-year-old superhero film helmed by the late Ghostbusters director Ivan Reitman. My Super Ex-Girlfriend, starring Uma Thurman, is now streaming on Hulu.

Co-starring Luke Wilson, the romantic comedy movie features Thurman as the superhero Jennifer Johnson/G-Girl, who received the powers of flight, superhuman strength, speed, heightened senses, invulnerability, super breath, and heat vision after being exposed to radiation from a crashed meteorite as a teenager. After Wilson's character, Matt Saunders, stops a purse snatcher from stealing Jennifer's purse, the pair begin dating. Matt eventually dumps her for being needy and controlling, prompting her to use her abilities to make his life a living hell. My Super Ex-Girlfriend also stars Anna Faris as Hannah Lewis, Eddie Izzard as Professor Bedlam, Rainn Wilson as Vaughn Haige, and Wanda Sykes as Carla Dunkirk.

James Mangold, fresh from seeing his Bob Dylan offering A Complete Unknown snag eight Oscar nominations, received a hero’s welcome this weekend upon returning to the Sundance Film Festival where he got his start as an auteur.

Following in the footsteps of inaugural honoree Christopher Nolan, Mangold received a Trailblazer Award during the Celebrating Sundance Institute gala fundraiser presented by Google TV and held at Park City’s Grand Hyatt Deer Valley on Friday night. The filmmaker, who has amassed an impressively diverse resume that spans genres, budgets and blockbusters, made the most of his time in the spotlight by retracing his festival roots and delivering a call to action to all of the storytellers in the room.

He was joined on the fundraiser program by fellow honorees Michelle Satter of the Sundance Institute, Cynthia Erivo (Visionary Award), Julian Brave NoiseCat and Emily Kassie (Vanguard Award for Fiction) and...

James Mangold misses the era when movies weren’t embarrassed to make audiences feel something. The director of the Bob Dylan musical biopic “A Complete Unknown” and comic book adaptation “Logan” believes there’s a growing hostility to films that wear “their hearts on their sleeve.”

“Most of my generation, my peers, have been generally fascinated by irony or detachment. I never felt completely at home in that idiom because I felt those [films] were cool and clever, but not necessarily moving,” the newly minted Oscar nominee said at Sundance’s annual gala on Friday night, where he was feted with the second-ever Trailblazer Award (the first was bestowed to Christoper Nolan in 2024). “Movies that put their feelings on the line, the way we talk about them and use words like melodramatic or chewing the scenery or too much, we kill some of the fearlessness [of directors].”

Mangold expressed his excitement in returning to Sundance,...

The Sundance Film Festival chose well in selecting the honorees for tonight’s Gala fundraiser at the newly opened Grand Hyatt Deer Valley.

Beyond freshly minted Oscar nominees Cynthia Erivo and James Mangold in the house to receive the Visionary Award and Trailblazer Award respectively, it was Michelle Satter — the Founding Senior Director of Artists Program for the Sundance Institute — whose stirring speech unified the high-profile packed ballroom.

Satter was recognized for her decades-long commitment to nurturing artists and cultivating independent film through the Sundance Labs. As many in the room knew and as Satter mentioned, she and her husband David Latt were among the thousands who lost their homes in the wildfires that scorched LA. Horribly, this tragedy came after Satter and Latt’s youngest son Michael, an advocate in the industry for social justice, was fatally shot in November 2023 at his Miracle Mile home in a senseless murder.

Everyone assumed that the nominees for the Directors Guild of America’s top DGA Award would include, as they did in Wednesday morning’s nominations announcement, Emilia Pérez’s Jacques Audiard, Anora’s Sean Baker, Conclave’s Edward Berger and The Brutalist’s Brady Corbet.

The question was: Who was going to snag the fifth and final slot?

The aforementioned quartet was recently joined on the Golden Globe Awards’ nominations list by The Substance’s Coralie Fargeat and All We Imagine as Light’s Payal Kapadia; and on the Critics Choice Awards’ nominations list by Fargeat, Wicked’s Jon M. Chu, Nickel Boys’ RaMell Ross and Dune: Part Two’s Denis Villeneuve.

But as exciting and glamorous as those awards shows are, they are actually less reliable predictors of Oscar recognition than the picks of the DGA, which more closely mirrors the directors branch of the Academy, which, in turn,...

Ever since he made his feature directorial debut with “Heavy” in 1995, James Mangold has been known for his range, deftly jumping back and forth between crowd-pleasing genre fare like “Identity” and “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny,” powerhouse character studies like “Copland” and “Girl Interrupted,” light romantic comedies (“Kate & Leopold”) and, perhaps most famously, musical biopics like “Walk the Line” and his latest film, the Bob Dylan movie “A Complete Unknown.”

What all of these films have in common is a sensitivity to performance that often yields the best work from actors as varied in styles and approaches as Joaquin Phoenix, Meg Ryan, Sylvester Stallone, Christian Bale, and Timothée Chalamet. “A Complete Unknown” is possibly Mangold’s best film yet in this regard, as it boasts superb work by not only Chalamet as Dylan but Ed Norton as Pete Seeger, Monica Barbaro as Joan Baez, Elle Fanning as...

James Mangold to Be Honored With Trailblazer Award; Cynthia Erivo to Be Honored With Visionary Award at 2025 Sundance Film Festival Gala Celebrating Sundance Institute Presented by Google TV

December 18, 2024, Park City, Ut — The nonprofit Sundance Institute announced today that writer-director-producer James Mangold (Searchlight Pictures’ A Complete Unknown) will be honored with the Trailblazer Award. Grammy, Emmy, and Tony Award–winner and two-time Academy Award nominee Cynthia Erivo, currently starring as Elphaba in Universal Pictures’ Wicked, will be honored with the Visionary Award at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival’s gala fundraiser, Celebrating Sundance Institute Presented by Google TV.

As previously announced, the evening will also honor Michelle Satter, Founding Senior Director of Artist Programs at Sundance Institute, for her longstanding commitment to nurturing artists and cultivating independent film through the Sundance Labs, where visionary artists convene to develop groundbreaking projects through an in-depth creative process, for the past four decades.

James Mangold and Cynthia Erivo will be honoured at Sundance Film Festival’s gala fundraiser on January 24, 2025.

Mangold, whose latest film A Complete Unknown starring Timothée Chalamet as Bob Dylan opens in the US through Searchlight on December 25, will receive the Trailblazer Award “in recognition of his unwavering dedication and notable contributions to the field of cinema”.

Mangold’s credits include Walk The Line, Ford v. Ferrari, 3:10 To Yuma,and Logan. The writer-director participated in the Institute’s year-round artist programmes in 1994, where he developed the screenplay for his 1997 film Cop Land at the Sundance Screenwriters and Directors Labs.

The 2025 Sundance Film Festival gala will be lauding Wicked star Cynthia Erivo and A Complete Unknown filmmaker James Mangold at their Jan. 24 fundraiser dinner at the Grand Hyatt Deer Valley in Utah.

Erivo will be honored with the Visionary Award for her uncompromising work and notable contributions to the entertainment industry. The Grammy and Tony winner was a jury member of the virtual edition of Sundance Film Festival in 2021 and she returned to the fest in 2023 as an actor and producer of Drift. Wicked is the highest grossing feature adaptation of a Broadway musical ever at the domestic box office ($365.1M).

Cynthia Erivo and director James Mangold will be honored at the Sundance Film Festival’s gala fundraiser on Jan. 24 in Park City, Utah, the Sundance Institute announced Wednesday.

Erivo, who currently stars as Elphaba in “Wicked,” will receive the Visionary Award for her “uncompromising work and notable contributions to the entertainment industry.”

Mangold, who directed the upcoming Bob Dylan biopic “A Complete Unknown” that stars Timothée Chalamet, will receive the Trailblazer Award in recognition for his “unwavering dedication and notable contributions to the field of cinema.”

“Receiving the Visionary Award is an honor that fills me with immense gratitude,” Erivo said in a statement. “Sundance has always been a sanctuary for bold voices and transformative narratives, and to be a part of and recognized by this incredible community is deeply meaningful. Storytelling is the foundation of my work, and it’s a privilege to celebrate this art form alongside so many extraordinary creators.

James Mangold has proven himself to be a very consistent filmmaker with a true talent for working within many genres. There aren’t many directors working today who can say that they’ve made westerns, romantic comedies, crime thrillers, music biopics, and blockbuster franchise sequels, but Mangold has managed to show diversity within his output. The consistency of quality is critical to Mangold’s longevity within the industry; even the weaker projects in his filmography have noteworthy performances and excellent production design.

Not every single project that Mangold has worked on has been successful. “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” was a major disappointment that did not do justice to the Steven Spielberg films that preceded it, and “Knight and Day” was an awkward action comedy that seemed to misuse Tom Cruise. That being said, the vast majority of Mangold’s work has been of very high quality, with...

The introduction of Darkness subclasses in Destiny 2, namely Stasis and Strand, was a big deal for the game. The game has a big arsenal of heavy exotic weapons but lacks depth when it comes to Darkness subclasses. While Light weapons have many options in the heavy category, players who prefer Darkness subclasses, such as Stasis and Strand don’t.

The game could definitely do with more variety. | Image Credit: Bungie

With only Winterbite and Salvation’s Grip representing Stasis and no heavy Strand weapons at all, the gap is noticeable. For a game that prides itself on build diversity, this oversight significantly limits the creative potential of players, especially those leaning into Darkness-focused builds.

Few bands have made an impact on the modern alternative rock genre like Linkin Park has. Pioneering nu-metal rock bands like Korn, Faith No More, and Public Enemy helped pioneer the rising hip-hop-infused genre of the 1990s with the grunge and hard rock influences of groups like Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, and Stone Temple Pilots. Linkin Park became a result of these two decade-defining pools of rock on the heels of the pioneering electronic rock sound of Nine Inch Nails. Their 2000 debut album Hybrid Theory combined these influences and became one of the most emblematic LPs of the 21st century.

The group's 2003 sophomore effort, Meteroa, is one of the most purchased albums of the 21st century with more than 27 million copies sold worldwide. Despite their iconic original hip-hop/metal sound, mixed with Mike Shinoda's piercing bars and Chester Bennington's even more piercing scream vocals, Linkin Park leaned more...

Timothée Chalamet and James Mangold will be honored with a Visionary Tribute at the upcoming Gotham Awards for their work on A Complete Unknown, the upcoming Bob Dylan biopic from Searchlight Pictures — a distinction recognizing “groundbreaking collaborations that push the boundaries of storytelling in film.”

“In A Complete Unknown, Timothée Chalamet and James Mangold have beautifully captured Dylan’s emergence in 1960s New York not just as an artistic evolution, but as a meditation on the necessity of change,” said Jeffrey Sharp, executive director of event’s parent org The Gotham Film & Media Institute.

“Through Chalamet’s breathtakingly authentic performance and Mangold’s masterful direction, we witness Dylan’s transformation from folk prophet to electric rebel, showing how growth often requires letting go of the very relationships and identities that shaped us. Together, they have created a work that will not only resonate with longtime Dylan admirers but also...

The beloved Australian rom-com series is finally back for its second season and while I want to say that everything is going hunky dory for our leading couple, in my opinion, it just won’t end up that way. Created by and starring the real-life couple Harriet Dyer and Patrick Brammall, Colin from Accounts is back with its much anticipated second season with the always-bickering Ashley and Gordon.

Colin from Accounts picks up the story of Ashley and Gordon two weeks after they gave up Colin to a family of three. Now, regretting their decision they have been pestering the family to give Colin so that they don’t have to deal with the question of what their relationship is like if Colin is taken out of the equation because he was the one who brought them together.

Two brothers embark on a journey across the American West, hoping to heal deep wounds and forge a new bond. Older brother Pete has attempted to take his own life once more, leading to worried parents sending younger sibling Jake to drive Pete home. Hoping a change of scenery might help, their father believes Pete simply seeks attention. But underneath, real struggles tear at Pete’s soul.

Writer and director Sheridan O’Donnell draws from personal regret over a friend’s suicide for his debut film. He examines the turbulent path facing those with a loved one in such darkness. How do you care for them? Keep them safe? Help them see what they’d leave behind. This film offers no easy fixes, only earnest empathy.

Pete wrestles with mental health issues, struggling as many do today between burying emotions or openly facing fear. Jake wants to understand his once-looked-upon brother.

Capturing the essence of rock ‘n’ roll on film is often difficult. It’s not just about the music; it’s about the attitude, urges, style, and passion to get to the heart of a form of expression that conjures inner demons and lets them out to play. Movies like Airheads, This is Spinal Tap, Detroit Rock City, Metalhead, School of Rock, Heavy Metal, and Rock ‘n’ Roll High School stand tall as some of the best of what cinema has to offer regarding the raw, inspirational power of rock ‘n’ roll. This year, we have Deaner ’89, an exploratory and nostalgia-tinged comedy about Dean Murdoch, a headbanger on the verge of emerging from his heavy metal cocoon in the small town of Haylen, Manitoba, Canada.

SiR’s biggest challenge when performing is to stay present. As he told Rolling Stone’s Delisa Shannon backstage at Lollapalooza, “Every song deserves its respect,” even if he’s no longer the same person he was when he originally wrote it.

“I try to be present through the whole set, which is a very difficult thing to do and a very daunting task,” he continued. “Especially how emotional some of these songs make me. But I think I’ve gotten good at it. First few shows, I broke down.

Lollapalooza 2024 wrapped on a high note Sunday night, with the welcome return of Blink-182, who last headlined the festival in 2017. According to organizers, more than 100,000 fans showed up at each of the four days (during Chappell Roan’s performance, it felt like all 100K from Day One showed up for her set). Vince Staples, Conan Gray, and Teddy Swims were among the standouts on Day Four. (Also, check out highlights from Day Two and Day Three.

Dolly Parton’s Dollywood went viral over the weekend after heavy rainfall hit eastern Tennessee, trapping guests in the theme park following floods.

Following the multiple reports of the incidents on social media, Dollywood Parks & Resorts issued a statement acknowledging the severe flooding.

At this time, one minor injury has been reported.”

The park stated that Dollywood supported “guests whose vehicles were affected by this weather event, and cleanup crews have been deployed.”

The following contains major spoilers for CSI: Vegas Season 3, Episode 10, "Tunnel Vision," which debuted Sunday, May 19 on CBS.

The CSI: Vegas series finale absolutely should not be the series finale -- and it clearly wasn't written as one either. Season 3, Episode 10, "Tunnel Vision" does provide a modicum of closure, in that it wraps up the robot murder case that started in Episode 5, "It Was Automation." Audiences learn who's behind the deaths and why, although the answers are not ones that the viewer will have even thought about.

More importantly, "Tunnel Vision" explains what happened to Chris Park and Maxine Roby, and provides conclusions to some of the emotional storylines that have underwritten the season. Yet because it's not aiming for total completeness, it doesn't serve up everything that fans will be looking for. The episode goes in some directions that it doesn't need to, although that doesn't stop it from...

While we'd expected James Gunn to cast a couple of big names as Superman's Ma and Pa Kent, the filmmaker instead chose to find two actors he felt embody the characters, Pruitt Taylor Vince and Neva Howell.

There's still no word on who, if anyone, will play Jor-El (Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 star Kurt Russell remains the rumoured fan favourite) but we're expecting Jonathan and Martha to be a huge part of Clark Kent's story. Here's hoping neither of them meets a tragic end, anyway!

"Happy Anniversary to my favorite Kansas farmers Ma [and] Pa Kent who will be played by Pruitt Taylor Vince (an actor I've wanted to work with since I saw him in James Mangold's Heavy in 1995) [and] the delightful Neva Howell," Gunn said on Threads.

Kicking off Tuesday, July 23 in Silver Spring, MD at The Fillmore, the tour will make stops in Brooklyn, Toronto, Austin, San Francisco, and more before wrapping up with a hometown performance in Los Angeles, CA at the Hollywood Palladium. Special guest Zacari will join on all dates. Tickets: Tickets for his North American tour dates will be available starting Thursday, April 4 with presales. The general onsale begins Friday, ...

SiR’s stately croon exudes grown-and-sexy. The Inglewood, California, R&b singer-songwriter’s style is careful and studied, influenced by the timelessness of Stevie Wonder and John Mayer’s sensitive edge. His 2019 release, Chasing Summer, was a gauzy yarn that still holds up in the field of modern R&b. With its bounce and levity, the LP balanced odes to good weed, chasing skirts, and the city he loves with fleeting explorations of discomfort. He had a jazzy attitude in a landscape that skewed pop, establishing himself as an artist...

When singer-songwriter SiR started growing his dreadlocks in 2010, he didn’t know the level of maintenance it would require. He was initially enthused by the Rastafarian concept of locs and their spiritual significance, finding meaning behind the now-popular hairdo. Although not as invested anymore, he realizes how his loc journey coincides with his personal development. There’s been plenty of breakage but also restoration.

When we first met at Sony Music’s New York headquarters in 2022, he was promoting his latest album, Heavy — which was supposed to drop that fall...

Yearning can be a difficult feeling to capture on-screen. Love stories are little without a tragic element, and defining the spaces in between moments of romantic reverie can be a challenge for even the best filmmakers and the most dedicated actors. Yun Su-ik and leading performers Han So-hee and Han Hae-in have taken a surprisingly unconventional approach to a tale of young love with “Heavy Snow”, a slight but cutting series of snapshots of a brief high-school fling that has long-lasting ramifications.

Han Hae-in is Su-an, an acting-major loner living in a small coastal town, introduced by wielding a loaded paintball gun as part of her performance in drama class. When performing Shakespeare, she resembles less of a traditional Hamlet and more of a school shooter, keeping her classmates on the backfoot as she alienates them with her extreme commitment to her version of a classic role.

Maroon 5 will return to Dolby Live at Park MGM this year for another Las Vegas residency.

Their residency is set to begin in May and end in October, with only a few summer dates scheduled.

Last December, Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine spoke to Howard Stern on the Howard Stern Show and talked about how the son of singer Graham Nash, Jackson, helped the pop rock band make its name.

“He put us in with some amazing people and helped me make a demo, and that demo wound up being the demo that got us our second record deal. He was hugely integral in us getting a kind of second chance because we wouldn’t have had any money to make the demo, we got signed off of so that was huge,” Levine said. “I will always be eternally grateful to [Graham].”

Since their formation, Maroon 5 has garnered three Grammy awards, eight...

Bloody Disgusting and Doppelgänger Releasing joined forces back in 2018 to release Heavy Trip, a Finnish black metal comedy about a small-town heavy metal band that blasts its way out of the quiet countryside for a big debut gig in Norway. The film is an absolute blast and ended up being a hit in Norway, leading first-time feature filmmakers Juuso Laatio and Jukka Vidgren back behind the camera for a sequel, titled Heavier Trip!

Filming on Heavier Trip has wrapped and with the project headed to the upcoming European Film Market, we’ve got some first-look images as well as plot details for ya this week.

The upcoming sequel promises to be “Harder. Faster. Louder.”

Here’s the official plot synopsis…

“The most ferocious death metal band in the world, Impaled Rektum, is incarcerated in a Norwegian prison when they discover that the guitarist’s family is facing significant financial trouble.

Bring Me the Horizon have unveiled the new song “Kool-Aid,” the latest single from their forthcoming album Post Human: NeX GEn.

While not as crushing as the band’s early deathcore years, the song hits hard compared to some of the UK act’s more recent pop-inspired output. Singer Oli Sykes goes full-scream mode at certain points in the track, as he sings over some heavy riffage.

Post Human: NeX GEn was originally set to arrive in September 2023, but was indefinitely delayed. A new press release states that the album will “be released this year, with the official release date forthcoming.”

“Kool-Aid” is the first song Bring Me the Horizon have released since announcing the departure of keyboardist/programmer Jordan Fish in late December. It’s unclear if he played on the track, but a new band photo (see above) accompanying the song doesn’t include Fish.

Bring Me the...
