You’d be surprised to find out that there really is something that Kevin Bacon fears, and believe you me it is not your average fear.

Remember how the name of his breakthrough musical drama is “Footloose?” Well, keep that in mind as we forge on to discover why Kevin Bacon and weddings don’t mix so well.

Kevin Bacon Says People Would Treat Him Like A “Trained Monkey” Because of One of His Earlier Movies

Kevin Bacon is as free going as the next guy, but not when people start treating him like a circus animal. The Golden Globe Award winning star touched on his many decades in the spotlight during a career retrospective at SXSW in Austin, Texas, on Friday, March 7.

During the discussion, the actor couldn’t help pointing out how “Footloose” continues to influence his life many decades after the film originally premiered in 1984.

He said: “It’s what I wanted,...

Damien Chazelle's "La La Land" is a bittersweet tale of a romance that almost was. The story of Sebastian (Ryan Gosling) and Mia (Emma Stone) is of a love that is very much requited and yet, due to circumstances, simply cannot be. That theme of a near-miss is very much the real-life story of the movie as well as its fictional narrative in a number of ways. For one, the film infamously nearly won Best Picture at the Academy Awards. Although this was less an instance of a near-miss and more just a genuine mistake, there was a good minute there where the filmmakers thought it actually happened.

That's not the only near-miss that "La La Land" experienced during its journey from inception, to cinemas, to awards season. When the film was first being developed, Chazelle had two completely different actors in mind for the leading roles: Miles Teller and Emma Watson.

Throughout Josh Ruben’s brilliant new Valentine’s Day slasher “Heart Eyes,” potential suspects and would-be victims reference real romantic comedies. “My Best Friend’s Wedding.” “Crazy Stupid Love.” “Pretty Woman.” Whatever your preferred chick flick — combined with the predator-prey mania of “My Bloody Valentine” (and just a touch of the goofiness in “Scream 6”) — that should be enough to compel you toward this giddy and graphic whodunit. It’s a freaky celebration that confirms holiday horror, if it ever left, is so back, and a standout achievement in the deceptively dense category of recent romances across genre comedy.

Silly, slick, and self-aware, the latest farce from the “Werewolves Within” director is laugh-out-loud funny and boasts pops of gore that earn the comparison to Eli Roth’s “Thanksgiving.” Although the killer pilgrim movie from 2023 is more stomach-churning than Ruben’s film, this nutty blend of hyper-violence and one-liners is a dark comedic delicacy.

Spoiler Alert: This story contains plot points from the first three episodes of Paradise on Hulu.

After dropping the first episode of Paradise on Sunday, Hulu has made episodes 2 and 3 of the thriller available to audiences that should have provided a bit more context to that mysterious twist at the end of the pilot.

Here, creator Dan Fogelman talks about what inspired him to write the thriller starring Sterling K. Brown, James Marsden and Julianne Nicholson and why we had to wait until the premiere to finally learn what he’s been working on since wrapping his NBC drama This Is Us in 2022.

Deadline: Before we get into Paradise, I want to start at the moment after This is Us. Did you wonder if you developed a reputation as a creator of triple-hanky family dramas?

Dan Fogelman: I was pretty exhausted. It had been a long six years of making a lot of television.

Plot: Set in a serene community inhabited by some of the world’s most prominent individuals. But this tranquility explodes when a shocking murder occurs, and a high-stakes investigation unfolds.

Review: You are not prepared for Paradise. Sure, the trailers make it out to be a somewhat run-of-the-mill political thriller about the murder of the President of the United States and his most trusted protector, who may be involved in a massive conspiracy. Still, it is so much more than that. Built as a serial drama with a fantastic ensemble cast, Paradise draws structurally from series like Lost and Yellowjackets by combining a contemporary timeline with flashbacks that fill in the gaps of how the characters got to where they are today but also manages to upend the conventions of what we expect from a series like this. Having seen the entire series (except for the finale), I have a lot of thoughts about Paradise,...

Steve Carell is one of Hollywood's most beloved actors. Best known as Michael Scott on The Office, Carell has also built a successful film career with classics like Anchorman and The 40-Year-Old Virgin. After conquering comedy, Carell shifted to dramatic roles in The Big Short and Foxcatcher, earning his first Academy Award nomination for the latter. Recently, he's returned to television, delivering acclaimed performances in The Morning Show (Apple TV+) and The Patient (FX), and signing on for a new HBO series. However, his most lucrative role might be voicing Gru in the six films in the Despicable Me franchise.

The youngest of four brothers, Carell grew up in Acton, Massachusetts. Though he planned to go law school, Carell caught the performing bug after joining a student-run improv troupe while attending Denison University. After graduating, Carell moved to Chicago, where he joined the famed The Second City. His first big...

Dan Fogelman is adding another Hulu series to his portfolio, this one set in the high-stakes world in the NFL.

Hulu has given a series pickup to the untitled project, which is from 20th Television and Skydance Sports. Details are sparse, though it is said to involve a generational family dynamic, in addition to its setting in the NFL.

Skydance Sports, it is worth noting, is a joint venture between David Ellison’s Skydance and the NFL. The league is notoriously careful about its brand, but told The Hollywood Reporter last year that it wants to develop more scripted fare via the Skydance Jv.

Fogelman is serving as writer and executive producer alongside Jess Rosenthal with David Ellison, Jesse Sisgold, and Jason T. Reed serving as EPs for Skydance Sports.

Fogelman, of course, is the creator behind the hit NBC family drama This Is Us, with feature credits like Cars,...

Dan Fogelman is staying in business with Hulu, with the streamer ordering a drama series set within the NFL from the celebrated TV producer.

Exact plot details on the untitled series are being kept under wraps, aside from the fact it takes place in the NFL and has a generational family component, per an individual with knowledge of the project.

Fogelman serves as writer and executive producer on the series. Jess Rosenthal also executive produces via his and Fogleman’s Rhode Island Ave. Productions along with David Ellison, Jesse Sisgold, and Jason T. Reed for Skydance Sports. 20th Television and Skydance Sports will produce. Fogelman is currently under an overall deal at 20th TV.

This is now the second series order Fogelman has landed at Hulu. He is also the creator of the upcoming drama series “Paradise” starring Sterling K. Brown and James Marsden, which does not have a premiere...

From backflips to sports visual aids, here are our 10 favorite moments from weekend two of the Austin City Limits Music Festival, where artists like rising star Chappell Roan, SoCal rapper Vince Staples, and TikToker Petey delivered show-stopping sets. And check out our coverage of Chris Stapleton’s homage to Austin’s past and present, featuring surprise guest Willie Nelson.

Benson Boone

Benson Boone brought an infectious energy to Acl with a performance that started in the most unexpected way: two backflips off his piano. The singer’s acrobatic opener set the tone for a dynamic set filled with soaring vocals and catchy, heartfelt love songs.

Emei

The BMI stage is known for highlighting the best up-and-coming talent, and this year Emei stole the show. Her vocal power, catchy hooks, and undeniable charisma made for one of the best sets of the weekend. Songs like “Rabbithole” and “Crazy Stupid Love” had the crowd vibing,...

Saoirse Ronan, the Academy Award-nominated actor in films like Lady Bird, Brooklyn and Little Women, remembers when a very prominent actor was fired days before shooting started on her thriller film, The Lovely Bones. As originally planned, Ryan Gosling would play Ronan's father in the film (despite just a 14-year difference and Gosling being 27), but director Peter Jackson made the abrupt decision to fire Gosling from the movie. Why? An unexpected decision related to... method acting?

The Lovely Bones stars Ronan as Susie Salmon, a 14-year-old student who gets murdered by an unknown stranger. Now in purgatory (or "The In-Between"), Susie tries her best to comfort her family any way she can, but she also helps everyone in finding the murderer who violently took her life. The film was based on Alice Sebold's supernatural drama novel of the same name.

When Ronan spoke on the Happy Sad Confused podcast on Oct.

Winning over audiences as a child in favorites like White House Down and Crazy Stupid Love, Joey King earned top-billing status on the massively successful Kissing Booth series for Netflix. Since then, she's been nominated for both an Emmy and a Golden Globe for her star-making turn in The Act. Now shes back with Netflix as both superstar lead and executive producer on Uglies. King stars alongside newly-coronated scream queen Brianne Tju, known for her monster performances in 47 Meters Down: Uncaged and both the Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer TV series.

Outdoor movie screenings and Los Angeles seem to go hand-in-hand.

The city has no shortage of venues to catch a movie under the stars, as several outdoor screening series spend the summer taking over iconic L.A. landmarks.

Having become a Hollywood staple, it’s hard to scroll through social media in the summer without seeing at least one picture taken at Cinespia screening at the iconic Hollywood Forever Cemetery. Meanwhile, Street Food Cinema offers screenings at several venues including Will Rogers State Historic Park in Pacific Palisades and The Autry Museum, located inside Griffith Park.

Whether you’re looking for a fun night out with friends or a family friendly summer activity, there are a slew of screenings around L.A. Check out some of them below.

Joey King has signed with WME for representation.

The 24-year-old actor is best known for Netflix’s “The Kissing Booth” franchise, as well as Hulu’s true-crime series “The Act.” She scored an Emmy nomination for “The Act,” in which she portrayed Gypsy Rose Blanchard, who faced years of suffering and abuse as a result of her mom’s Munchausen syndrome by proxy. (The real Gypsy Rose eventually faced jail time for the second-degree murder for the death of her mother.)

King’s other credits include Hulu’s historical drama “We Were the Lucky Ones,” David Leitch’s action-comedy “Bullet Train,” Christopher Nolan’s “The Dark Knight Rises” and “Crazy Stupid Love.” This summer, she will voice a character in Universal and Illumination’s “Despicable Me 4.” King is also starring in Netflix’s “A Family Affair” alongside Zac Efron and Nicole Kidman.

A year before Will Smith and Margot Robbie co-starred in "Suicide Squad," they teamed up for a crime caper that fared a lot better critically than David Ayer's ill-fated supervillain team-up. These days, Robbie is riding high after "Barbie" became the highest-grossing movie of 2023. The Aussie star will soon follow up that success with a starring role opposite Colin Farrell in Kogonada's "A Big Bold Beautiful Journey," not to mention the slew of films her production company, LuckyChap, has lined up.

Smith, meanwhile, hasn't been in the public eye as much in recent years, following what was a disastrous 2022 for the actor. His upcoming role alongside Martin Lawrence in "Bad Boys: Ride of Die" — the trailer for which looks like it will please longtime franchise fans — will be a real test for the actor, and should give a good indication on how the general public are feeling about Smith...

Stone's advice helped writer Julio Torres create a successful Papyrus sketch for SNL. Exceeding SNL's formula, the sketch stood out with a relatable premise and a funny character. Torres says: I think the humor comes not from making fun of him, but from seeing qualities in him that we can relate to.

According to writer Julio Torres, a piece of advice from Emma Stone helped inspire Ryan Gosling's incredible "Papyrus" sketch on Saturday Night Live. The sketch, which follows Gosling as a man haunted by the "Papyrus" font that's used for the Avatar franchise, was a breakout success for the long-running NBC show. It even inspired a sequel when Gosling hosted SNL earlier this year, with the follow-up expanding on the original and incorporating Avatar: The Way of Water.

As he prepares to debut his new HBO show Fantasmas, Torres is looking back on a key piece of...

The Fall Guy's box office flop shows Ryan Gosling's inconsistent performance, making his upcoming Ocean's prequel risky. Even though The Fall Guy impressed reviewers, its lackluster box office results cast doubt on Gosling's future success. The Ocean's 11 prequel will test Gosling and Margot Robbie's chemistry post-Barbie's success, raising questions about their appeal.

The news that the Ryan Gosling vehicle The Fall Guy underperformed at the box office is bad for the stars upcoming collaboration with Barbie co-star Margot Robbie. Ryan Gosling might be one of the most acclaimed A-list stars of his generation, but the actors box office performance has been surprisingly uneven throughout his career. Hits like Drive, La La Land, and Crazy Stupid Love proved that Gosling can take a low or mid-budget movie and make it a massive blockbuster. However, 2018s First Man, 2017s Blade Runner 2049, and 2016s underrated cult classic The Nice Guys all underperformed.

Ryan Gosling is living his best life these days. Or certainly his funniest. After earning an Academy Award nomination purely based on his ability to persuasively turn “Kenergy” into a noun in last summer’s Barbie, he brought that pure, uncut Ken stuff to the Oscar stage. No, not by winning the prize, but by taking home the hearts and minds of the internet with an epic performance of “I’m Just Ken.”

In hindsight, the spectacle of it all might be viewed as a turning point in his career as audiences embrace the guy who seemed so stoic and tortured in the 2010s—with his understated leading roles in Drive, Blade Runner 2049, Blue Valentine, and First Man—as actually a great comedy talent. His next studio vehicle, The Fall Guy, is in theaters now, and we can vouch for it being a breezy, lighthearted entertainment given life by...

[Editor’s note: this list was originally published in July 2023, and has since been updated.]

Ryan Gosling has that Ken-ergy. He’s Ken out of Ken. He’s Kendlessly Kentertaining. He’s the Kend all, be all. He’s the Kenvy of other actors. He’s impossible to not Kenjoy. He’s more, much more, than Kenough.

Gosling has had a long, fruitful career, but it’s safe to say that he’s never committed to a role as hard as he’s committed to the bit that was the “Barbie” press tour. Every interview and soundbite the Canadian actor gave in the publicity run for Greta Gerwig’s take on the iconic Mattel toy line has launched meme after meme, as he’s spoken about the importance of telling the tragic story of Barbie’s beau Ken. It’s a commitment that’s only seconded by his performance in the film itself, where he goes for broke with a hilarious, oblivious, and often sweet...

Ryan Gosling said in an interview with The Wall Street Journal Magazine that he is no longer picking roles that are too psychologically twisted in order to maintain his mental health for the sake of his family. The Oscar nominee has two children with partner and fellow actor Eva Mendes. Gosling’s recent movies, the comedy “Barbie” and the action romance “The Fall Guy,” certainly reflect this career choice.

“I don’t really take roles that are going to put me in some kind of dark place,” Gosling told the publication. “This moment is what I feel like trying to read the room at home and feel like what is going to be best for all of us. The decisions I make, I make them with Eva and we make them with our family in mind first.”

“I think ‘La La Land’ was the first,” Gosling added about when he started to shift his career.

Steve Carell and Tina Fey are teaming up for a new Netflix series adaptation of The Four Seasons. The series will be co-created by Tracey Wigfield and Lang Fisher. Both actors have deep backgrounds in comedy and will likely bring a powerful dynamic to the show.

Steve Carell and Tina Fey are teaming up for a new Netflix comedy series The Four Seasons.

Exclusive: Crazy Stupid Love directing duo, Glenn Ficarra and John Requa are returning to their roots as the two have come on to direct the Sony pic Misadventure. Sources close to the project say it is very early development with Jimmy Miller producing. Ficarra and Requa will exec produce alongside their Zaftig Films producing partner Charlie Gogolak.

While plot details are unknown at this time, sources close to the project say the film is in the vein of Crazy Stupid Love, the rom com starring Steve Carrell, Ryan Gosling, Emma Stone and Julianne Moore which helped launch the duos directing career. Mark Hammer penned the script.

Even though the film is in early development, early word around town is the script features several great roles and once pre-production ramps up, the project could entice some high-profile talent.

Ryan Gosling is “literally me.” That’s the literal description of the actor’s versatility and popularity. The actor has grown beyond the essential romantic comedy star to a multifaceted actor who can effortlessly play different roles across diverse genres.

However, recently, Vanity Fair made a shocking remark about Gosling’s lack of comedic ventures, which made fans fumed up and share their humorous take on the remark. Vanity Fair’s clear lack of information is evident when they put out a statement saying that Barbie was the first comedic venture of Gosling.

A sequel to Sydney Sweeney’s sleeper hit movie Anyone But You might happen after the actress teased its possibility. Helmed by Will Gluck, the romantic comedy-drama emerged as one of the most successful titles this year, to the surprise of everyone.

Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney in Anyone But You

The movie follows two college arch-nemes reuniting years after graduation to attend a wedding as a pretend couple. From there, they start to fall in love with each other.

During her appearance in The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, actress Sydney Sweeney hinted at a potential sequel to Anyone But You. She told the host:

“I’m just so thankful that everybody’s loving it… Maybe like a high nine chance.

Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell are seeking their next project post-Anyone but You for a fresh rom-com experience. The duo is recreating the '90s rom-com trend of lead actor reunions in new, unrelated stories for audiences. To continue their success, Sweeney and Powell's next collaboration requires director Will Gluck for the perfect follow-up.

Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell are confirmed to be looking for their next project after Anyone but You, which revives a beloved romantic comedy trend from the 1990s. After premiering in theaters on December 22, 2024, Anyone but You has broken several box office records and become a viral sensation thanks to its Shakespeare inspirations, use of Natasha Bedingfield’s 2004 song “Unwritten,” and the chemistry between leads Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell. While the movie’s success has led to conversations about the potential for Anyone but You 2, Sweeney and Powell have a better follow-up plan in the works.

Ryan Gosling’s reaction to Emma Stone’s BAFTA win is priceless as the fans hailed the actor after his reaction went viral. The on-screen chemistry of the duo has been one of the greatest and three films to their credit justifies that.

Ryan Gosling was honored by the Santa Barbara Film Festival on Saturday night, and used his speech to reflect on his long journey to becoming Ken.

Receiving the Kirk Douglas Award for Excellence in Film at a dinner in Santa Barbara, Gosling mused how “up until this point, I’ve only ever thought about just how much cinema had done for me, I had never really thought about what I’ve done for cinema.”

He recalled how in third grade he had a swearing problem (joking, “I didn’t think it was a problem but my teachers did and I just thought they were being a bunch of uptight mother— wait.”) and struggled in school, until one of his teachers planned weekly visits to the library and made a deal that for every book the actor read he could rent a movie from the library’s collection.

Just because characters end up with their love interest in movies doesn't mean they are great people, as some romantic partners are actually terrible individuals. Love stories in movies don't always work, and some of the best films feature characters who don't end up together, while others may end up with partners who are flawed or toxic. Popular romantic films like The Notebook and Twilight depict problematic behaviors, such as stalking, blackmailing, and manipulative actions, which wouldn't be considered romantic in real life.

Just because they end up with the love of their life doesn't mean that they are great, as some romantic interests are actually terrible people.

The Talking Heads were one of the most successful bands in their heyday. From the late 70s to 80s, the David Byrne-led group produced popular music with an alternative, New Wave twist.

The event garnered $640,839 of same-day revenue, spread across over 25 sold-out theaters in the United States, and the IMAX theater in London.

Brown, who earned two Primetime Emmy Awards for his performance as Randall Pearson in “This is Us,” most recently starred in Focus Features’ “Honk for Jesus. Save Your Soul,” which earned him an NAACP Image Award nomination for Outstanding Actor in a Motion Picture.

“Rabbit Hole” stars Kiefer Sutherland as a corporate espionage consultant who must go on the run after being framed for murder by a shadowy but powerful group, a character that is used to being on the receiving end of punches, quite unlike the character he’s best known for on “24.”

The Paramount+ series pairs Sutherland with “Crazy, Stupid Love,” “This is Us” and “WeCrashed” writer-directors John Requa and Glenn Ficarra. When they pitched him on a series that’s a throwback to ’70s conspiracy thrillers “Three Days of the Condor” and “Marathon Man” and “The Parallax View,” he was fully on board. “I’m so lucky that they called me first,” Sutherland told TheWrap ahead of the series premiere on March 26.

“24” fans will be pleased to see the actor back in thriller territory, but his “Rabbit Hole” character John Weir is very different from Jack Bauer. For one thing, it...

Charles Dance was never a big Twitter or Facebook user. But now that he stars in Paramount+’s new Kiefer Sutherland thriller “Rabbit Hole”? “It’s made me more determined to have absolutely nothing to do with social media at all,” he said. “I mean, I never did anyway, but I’m certainly not going to do so now!”

Paramount+’s “Rabbit Hole” stars Sutherland as John Weir, described as “a master of deception in the world of corporate espionage, is framed for murder by powerful forces who have the ability to influence and control populations.”

A packed Stateside Theatre audiences watched the first two episodes of “Rabbit Hole” at the South by Southwest festival on Sunday, and left with as many questions as they had answers. Who’s on what side? What’s going on? That’s by design, and creators/showrunners John Requa and Glenn Ficarra told the...

After a few small TV roles, Stone made her breakthrough in the hit teen comedies Easy A, and while she's a great comedy actor, she transitioned into more dramatic roles in the 2010s, most of which were huge awards contenders and winners. That said, The Favourite and Birdman are not general Oscar fodder; they're genuinely creative, unique, strange, and satirical takes on period dramas and Hollywood actors. Stone has certainly made some bold choices in her acting career that have massively paid off.
