Understandably, she might feel like she missed out on many things. She played the mutant role from 2015 to 2022, and seven years would have given her more than enough time to explore many film genres and projects.

Weltpremiere feierte er in der Reihe Spotlight des 41. Filmfest München. Das Projekt ist eine echte Herzensangelegenheit, für das Sellem alles gibt. „Ich mache alles selbst. Sogar den Verleih und die Organisation einer Kinotour. Mir war wichtig, dass der Film in die Kinos kommt. Er soll gesehen werden und eine Chance beim Deutschen Filmpreis erhalten.“
„Die Schule der Frauen“ blickt auf das Thema der patriarchal geprägten Kulturlandschaft, auf das „Problem“, als Schauspielerin alt zu werden.

Elizabeth Olsen is known to Marvel fandom as Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch, who first appeared in an end credits scene in Captain America: The Winter Soldier in 2014. Since then, she has starred in five movies and a miniseries in the franchise. However, acting in Avengers: Age of Ultron was not her first time reacting to a whole lot of nothingness.

Interestingly, her first big feature with massive CGI effects was Godzilla, the film that kickstarted the Monsterverse. Olsen’s jump to the 2014 film was a pretty big step up since she was starring in some pretty impressive indie films before the transition. She rose to prominence with roles in Martha Marcy May Marlene, Kill Your Darlings, Silent House, and Oldboy.

The Harry Potter film series, starring Daniel Radcliffe, has a massive fan following among modern pop culture enthusiasts. All the eight movies in the franchise, based on the works of J.K. Rowling, went massive at the box office. Interestingly, despite such a success, the films could never do anything significant at the Academy Awards.

For years, the Academy has been unpopular for some of its controversial decisions. Both fans and stars frequently complain about how some deserving films never get their chance to shine. Daniel Radcliffe felt that the Oscars snubbed his eighth Harry Potter film as it fell short of nominations before Martin Scorsese’s Hugo.

Eiichiro Oda has always been a master at making heartbreaking stories. Kuma, Jewelry Bonney, the Straw Hat Pirates, and sometimes even the villains get their saddest moments, making them more human. However, the one tale that stands out in One Piece is that of Portgas D. Ace. The moment he was introduced, he became a fan-favorite character, one that had an exponentially growing demand.

While his character grew in popularity, Oda seemed to have other plans for him. This caught the entire fandom off guard because no matter how much hope they kept in the mangaka, Ace was not to come back under any circumstances. This became worse when the manga chapter was later adapted into the series. However, Oda’s words changed things forever.

Caleb Carr, whose bestselling 1994 novel The Alienist made the author a household name who saw the book adapted into a 10-episode limited series on TNT, died of cancer Thursday at his home in Cherry Plains, New York. He was 68.
His death was announced by his brother Ethan Carr to The New York Times.
Carr was born on August 2, 1955, into a New York City family haunted by violence and abuse: His father was Lucien Carr, a Beat Generation journalist convicted of manslaughter for the 1944 killing of what today would be deemed a sexual predator. The fatal stabbing, which made headlines and history not least because Lucien’s friend and Columbia University classmate Jack Kerouac helped dispose of the knife, was depicted in the 2013 film Kill Your Darlings starring Daniel Radcliffe and Dane DeHaan.

Daniel Radcliffe is enjoying the time he is spending with his newborn son.
The Harry Potter star recently opened up to Entertainment Tonight about how people warned him that after a baby’s fix six months, “it gets better,” but the actor feels like it’s been great thus far.
“It’s awesome,” he told the publication. “I’ve kind of really enjoyed the first six months.” He also noted that he isn’t sure what he imagined of fatherhood, “but it’s great. He’s incredible and I’m just, like, in awe.”
Radcliffe and his longtime girlfriend, Erin Darke, welcomed their first son in April, a month after news broke that the couple was expecting. The actors met on the set of 2013’s Kill Your Darlings, in which he played famous poet Allen Ginsberg, and Darke portrayed a woman he has a sexual encounter with in a library.

This article contains spoilers for "Good Omens" season 2.
If you watched "Good Omens" season 2 when it debuted in July, chances are you've spent the last several weeks humming the same song as a few million other fans of the show. Buddy Holly's "Everyday" is the unofficial theme song of the fantasy comedy series' second season, and it's an earworm that's both impossible to shake and too fun to even want to.
"Everyday" first appeared in the sophomore season trailer, and seemed to be hinting towards some sort of countdown. "Every day/it's a-gettin' closer," Holly sings -- but what's the "it" in question? The apocalypse? An answer to the question of Gabriel's sudden appearance on earth? A big old smooch between the demon Crowley (David Tennant) and the angel Aziraphale (Michael Sheen). The answer turned out to be two of the three, but within the show's story, the...

When “Harry Potter” actor Daniel Radcliffe made his stage debut in 2007, he shocked Hollywood. At 17 years old, Radcliffe was cast as the lead in “Equus,” a Peter Shaffer play in which he would simulate sex with a horse.
Sixteen years later, a similar announcement would barely turn heads.
Now 33, Radcliffe has spent more time working as a professional actor outside of the franchise that skyrocketed him to fame than in it — and creating a singular body of work that exemplifies his artistic sensibilities and talent. Just four years after “Equus” and in the same summer as the final “Potter” premiere, he took a crash course in singing and dancing to lead the Broadway revival of “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying” (cast recording). This was followed by tackling horror in “The Woman in Black,” playing Allen Ginsberg in “Kill Your Darlings,” and running head-first into the dark fantasy “Horns.

Summer isn’t over yet but HBO and its streaming arm Max are already moving on to fall. With its list of new releases for August 2023, Max is focusing on football! The American kind, mind you, not the actually footy kind.
August 2023 sees the release of two major football documentaries on HBO and Max. The first is the premiere of Hard Knocks on Aug. 10. The new season of long-running NFL training camp docuseries will center on the New York Jets, new employers of legendary quarterback Aaron Rodgers. On Aug. 23, Max will air the aptly named Bs High. The doc tells the stranger-than-fiction story of high school football team Bishop Sycamore, which pulled off one of the more notable sports scams you’re likely to ever hear about.
Not of the football variety but in keeping with the North American sports theme will be season 2 of Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty on Aug.

Harry Potter coming to its conclusion was an emotional time for the actors involved. So much so that the cast and crew considered branding themselves with a permanent reminder of their time on set. But although Rupert Grint was interested in the idea, it seemed a few of his co-stars weren’t on board.

Grint and Watson had different feelings regarding how to commemorate the end of the Harry Potter franchise. According to Grint, they considered inking themselves. To honor both the movies and the character, the tattoos would’ve referenced Harry Potter’s iconic look.
“There was talk between us about doing something like a tattoo,” Grint once told Daily Mirror. “It would have been something subtle like Harry’s lightning scar. It would’ve been a great way of marking the end of filming.

August is one of the weird months on the calendar. It feels like it should be early fall; September is Right there, after all. And yet August is one of the hottest months of the year for many in the United States, one last gasp of summer before autumn and its traditional TV schedule of new releases settle in.
This year’s fall schedule will look markedly different thanks to strikes by both the leading actors’ union and the leading writers’ guild in Hollywood, but August will still have some fantastic new hits coming to streaming. Warner Bros. Discovery’s streaming platform Max is debuting new titles in just about every imaginable category, so here are the five we’re most excited for at The Streamable!

"I was always going to take some time off, which not everyone is able to do, and so I'm able to kind of just be here with him a lot, which is lovely.

Yer a father, Harry!
A representative for Daniel Radcliffe confirmed that the actor and his and longtime girlfriend Erin Darke have welcomed their first child a month after the news broke that the couple was expecting.
The actors met on the set of 2013 film Kill Your Darlings, in which the Harry Potter star plays famed poet Allen Ginsberg, while Darke portrays a woman he has a sexual encounter with in a library. The couple also starred alongside each other in Miracle Workers.
The actor most recently took on the role of “Weird Al” Yankovic in Roku’s biopic parody of the artist’s life, Weird: The Al Yankovic Story. Darke had a recurring role on The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and currently stars in Prime Video’s Moonshine.
Radcliffe and Darke have kept their relationship mostly out of the public eye, only appearing on red carpets together from time to time.

Ahead of the 2022 Cannes Film Festival, rumors erupted that a secret David Lynch project would be heading to the event. While such gossip may not have borne any fruit whatsoever (and was actually shot down by Lynch himself), The Hollywood Reporter can confirm that the legendary filmmaker will be having some involvement in the 2023 edition of the festival.
The David Lynch Foundation is set to host a panel discussion about film music at the American Pavilion, having teamed up with Irish entertainment and tech start-up Xavatar and Planet X Studios.
Entitled “The Art of Movie Music,” the hour-long talk — to take place on May 21 and followed by a two-hour cocktail party and fundraiser for the Foundation — will feature a panel made up of ’60s music icon Donovan, with virtual appearances by Lynch and rapper-actor Redman.

Exclusive: Michael C. Hall has signed with CAA for representation.
Hall is best known for starring in Showtime’s award-winning series Dexter, and in HBO’s Six Feet Under. The two roles earned him a Golden Globe, three Screen Actors Guild Awards, and several Emmy Award nominations.
He recently reprised the role of Dexter Morgan in Dexter: New Blood, the limited series in which he starred and executive produced. Showtime is definitely interested in more Dexter series; it already said it is considering a Dexter prequel series about the Trinity Killer while also developing Dexter: Origins and the next chapter of Dexter: New Blood.
Hall’s stage career includes such Broadway performances as the emcee in the 1999 revival of Cabaret, directed by Sam Mendes; Hedwig in John Cameron Mitchell’s Hedwig and the Angry Inch; and John Jones in The Realistic Joneses opposite Toni Collette, Marisa Tomei, and Tracy Letts.

Daniel Radcliffe has spent most of his life on screen. Between the Harry Potter film franchise and independent projects like "Weird: The Al Yankovic Story," the 33-year-old actor is best known for his versatile acting range. So naturally, it's no surprise that he met his longtime girlfriend, fellow actor Erin Darke, at work.
The two appeared together in the 2013 film "Kill Your Darlings" alongside Michael C. Hall, Jack Huston, and Ben Foster. And in 2021, they shared the screen once again in a season three episode of TBS's anthology series "Miracle Workers: Dark Ages."
Following their time in "Kill Your Darlings," the two shared an immediate connection, and a romance blossomed between them. Since then, the couple have been going strong, and they remain together a decade later. "I've got a really nice life. I've been with my girlfriend for a decade pretty much.

The 33-year-old actor, who most recently portrayed comedic musician “Weird Al” Yankovic in last year’s feature Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, does not tend to share much about his personal life and is not on social media.
During a 2022 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Radcliffe offered his take on why his private life doesn’t usually dominate media headlines. “I think in the years since I’ve been sober, I just don’t do anything interesting enough,” he reasoned. “As an actor, I just want to live...

Accio baby! Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe and his longtime girlfriend, Erin Darke, are expecting their first child later this year. A representative for Radcliffe confirmed the happy news to US Weekly. (Popsugar reached out to Radcliffe and Darke's reps for comment but did not receive an immediate response.)
On Friday, March 24, Darke showed off her baby bump during a stroll through New York with Radcliffe as seen in photos obtained by the outlet. The couple were all bundled up to brace the chilly weather, but the "Good Girls Revolt" actor's jacket and black-tights combo revealed she was expecting.
Radcliffe and Darke first met in 2012 while filming "Kill Your Darlings" together. They made their red carpet debut as a couple in 2013 at the Sundance Film Festival, and they've been going strong ever since. However, Radcliffe and Darke prefer to keep their relationship as private as possible.

Daniel Radcliffe parted ways with his Harry Potter castmates after the end of the final film. Once the trio pursued their own individual careers, Radcliffe didn’t think it was a good idea to collaborate with his co-stars in another film. At least not until a certain amount of time had passed.

Radcliffe and Grint developed a long-lasting friendship thanks to their time together in the Harry Potter films. But after the movies ended, Radcliffe shared that it was easier maintaining communication with Emma Watson than it was with Grint.

In the third season of Ted Lasso, Ted and his coaches discuss whether it’s a good idea for AFC Richmond to pursue Zava, a brilliant footballer who is also a ball-hogging diva. Adding Zava to the team would be a massive talent boost, but it would mean reconfiguring the entire offense around the new guy, sending one current starter to the reserves, changing everyone else’s role, and perhaps disrupting the harmonious locker room chemistry that has been Ted’s biggest achievement since arriving to coach in the Premier League.

In the past, George Lucas himself has admitted that he's not exactly a wordsmith when it comes to movie dialogue. In 1999, just as the "Star Wars" prequel trilogy was getting underway with "The Phantom Menace," Lucas spoke at length to Empire magazine about his utilitarian attitude toward dialogue, saying things like, "I'm aware that dialogue isn't my strength," and, "I'd be the first person to say I can't write dialogue."
If he'd be the first, then Harrison Ford would surely be the second. An oft-repeated story about Ford and Lucas and clunky "Star Wars" dialogue involves the Han Solo actor telling the "New Hope" writer-director: "George, you can type this s***, but you can't say it." In 2017, with "The Force Awakens" in his rearview mirror, Ford elaborated on the origen of that quote and how it started out as a joke on set. He told GQ:

Daniel Radcliffe came up with surprising answer when asked about his favourite role to date.
The British actor is best known for his performance as Harry Potter in the hit wizarding franchise based on Jk Rowling’s series of books.
He also received critical praise for his performance as Allen Ginsburg in Kill Your Darlings, and in the horror film The Woman in Black.
Despite these memorable roles, Radcliffe revealed that his favourite to date was starring alongside Paul Dano in Swiss Army Man.
In the 2016 film, Radcliffe played the role of a flatulent corpse named Manny who is befriended by Dano’s shipwrecked Hank.
“As an actor, you read so many scripts, and so many of them are the same script,” he explained toThe Hollywood Reporter.

In the spring of 2020, two films starring Daniel Radcliffe came out, almost back-to-back.
In Escape From Pretoria, he played Tim Jenkin, the real-life anti-apartheid activist and former political prisoner who in 1978 was part of a daring and successful breakout — using secretly made wooden keys — from a South African jail.
In Guns Akimbo, he played Miles, a computer programmer in a bonkers near-future who wakes up one morning to find that a criminal kingpin’s gang of henchmen — including a masked guy called Fuckface — had bloodily bolted guns onto each of his hands.
For those who had been keeping an eye on Radcliffe’s post-Harry Potter career, this quick-fire double of taut historical prison thriller and insane action-comedy sci-fi felt like the perfect summary as he neared almost a decade since leaving one of the world’s most successful movie franchises.

Daniel Radcliffe and Erin Darke made a rare red carpet appearance on Monday night. The longtime couple smiled for photos together at the NYC screening of "The Lost City," a comedy starring Radcliffe alongside Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum. Darke wore a black-and-white floral dress, while Radcliffe subtly matched in a black suede jacket and printed shirt underneath. Their appearance marks their first red carpet since the 2014 Tony Awards, where Radcliffe was nominated for his role in "The Cripple of Inishmaan."
The actors met on the set of "Kill Your Darlings" in 2013 and confirmed their relationship publicly the following year.

I never thought I would find going to the supermarket a genuinely fun experience,...

Ben Foster, Charmaine Bingwa, Gilbert Owuor and Mustafa Shakir have joined the cast of Antoine Fuqua’s upcoming thriller “Emancipation,” starring Will Smith.
Smith stars as Peter, a runaway slave who flees Louisiana in hopes of traveling north to freedom. “Emancipation” is inspired by the true story of “Whipped Peter,” an enslaved person who emancipated himself from a southern plantation and joined the Union Army. In 1863, photos taken of Peter during an Army medical examination first appeared in Harper’s Weekly. One image, known as “The Scourged Back,” shows the scars from a whipping on Peter’s bare back, illustrating the true cruelty of slavery and ultimately contributed to growing public opposition.
Fuqua will direct from a script by William N. Collage. Fuqua Films and Smith’s media company Westbrook Inc. are backing the project, which sold to Apple Studios for a reported $120 million.
Foster stars opposite Smith, playing Fassel,...
