With the world premiere of Behemoth!, Pedro Pascal is praising Tony Gilroy for the intimate drama.

During a Q&A after the film’s premiere screening at the New York Film Festival, the Golden Globe-nominated actor admitted he thought Gilroy was “gonna be kinda mean” before they worked together.

“You have created this complex Jason Bourne-like puzzle over something that is so intimate and so healing this mysterious way,” Pascal told Gilroy in a video shared by NYFF. “And I didn’t think it was gonna come from him, you know what I mean? This intimidating intellectual … you know, I thought you were gonna be kinda mean. And you thought I was gonna be a dork.

Zach Bryan Dons “Free Palestine” Shirt At Gillette Stadium Concert

Published

on

Following Robert Kraft‘s campaign against Macklemore, Zach Bryan made a statement with his performance at Gillette Stadium.

During Friday’s stop at the Kraft-owned venue for his With Heaven on Tour, the Grammy winner stepped onto the stage with a “Free Palestine” shirt after Kraft and other venue owners pressured Ed Sheeran to drop Macklemore from his tour over his outspoken support for Palestinians.

With another performance scheduled at the Massachusetts venue on Saturday night, it remains to be seen if Kraft will pull the plug.

The show comes after Ed Sheeran was forced to cancel his Gillette Stadium shows last weekend amid a nor’easter headed for Boston, despite caving to Kraft’s demands.

Sheeran dropped Macklemore from his tour last month amid an outcry around the opener’s “Free Palestine” onstage remarks. Opting to remain publicly neutral on the issue, Sheeran subsequently released a statement saying it was the “promoter’s decision” after Kraft assembled several of the tour venues to give him an ultimatum.

Following the statement, fellow tour openers Finneas, Aaron Rowe and Lukas Graham dropped out of the tour, along with Sheeran’s backing band Beoga.

Meanwhile, Macklemore announced the Free Palestine Tour last week, which is “supporting the Palestinian people and movement,” running 10/26-10/30 in Dublin, Paris and London. He since gave an update that the tour “sold out immediately.”

‘Real Time’: Bill Maher Tells Skydance Bosses “Don’t Believe Trump”

Published

As the Paramount-Warner Bros merger goes through, Bill Maher has a message for his new Skydance bosses.

On Friday’s episode of Real Time, the comedian pleaded with the Ellisons not to listen to their pal Trump’s criticism of him now that they own his show’s longtime home HBO.

“The merger went through. Paramount now owns Warner Discovery, which owns HBO, which owns my ass,” he said during his opening monologue. “Whoever owns me now, don’t believe what Trump is tweeting about me. Did you see what he said about me this weekend? He said my ratings are so low, ‘it’s just sad.’”

Maher continued, “You know what, Mr. President? Your insults don’t bother me. Make up whatever shit you want about me, just don’t mention I went to Cornell.”

On Wednesday, a federal judge cleared the way for the $110 billion deal to close, approving the settlement between Paramount and a group of state AGs that filed an antitrust lawsuit to block the Warner Bros. Discovery acquisition.

CEO David Ellison revealed on Friday that the combined company will now be known as Skydance, under which Paramount and Warner Bros. will supposedly remain individual entities.

Michael Douglas Reveals Kathleen Turner Romance, Actress Responds

Published

on

Michael Douglas revealed in a new excerpt from his memoir One Helluva Ride that he and Kathleen Turner had a secret romantic relationship while filming 1984’s Romancing the Stone, and the actress is responding to his revelation.

The Fatal Attraction actor shared an exclusive excerpt from his new memoir with People Thursday, writing that he and his then-wife, Diandra Douglas, were separated and “were both having extramarital affairs.” He wrote that “Kathleen and I fell hard for each other and began a relationship,” and vowed to keep their romance private.

“The chemistry I had with Kathleen Turner was so strong, audiences have been certain for years that we were in a relationship together while making the film. We both denied it through Romancing The Stone, Jewel of the Nile, War of the Roses, and even while doing press a few years ago for The Kominsky Method,” he said, noting four projects they’ve worked on together.

“The official story went as follows: Yes, we confessed, we had amazing chemistry. Yes, we were both, as Kathleen said, ‘terrible flirts,’ and yes, we were both tempted, but nothing ever happened between us,” Douglas wrote, per the excerpt. “That was a lie.”

Turner responded to Douglas’ admission on Friday. “Good heavens what a fuss about something 40 years ago!” the actress wrote in a statement shared with People. “I love Michael and I look forward to enjoying the book.”

Elsewhere in his excerpt, the two-time Oscar winner said they lied about their romance for 40 years “to protect my wife and son.” He said they kept things so under wraps that director Bob Zemeckis and their co-star Danny DeVito “were unaware.”

“The truth is that during the production of Romancing the Stone, Kathleen and I fell hard for each other and began a relationship,” Douglas wrote. “It wasn’t a fly-by night affair; it grew naturally from how closely we were working together, how much pressure we were under, how much we respected and cared for one another, and how attracted we were to each other. Like every other guy in the world at the time, I was knocked sideways by Kathleen….”

Douglas wrote that during a set visit, Diandra “grew suspicious,” and spoke with Turner and “made it clear to her that we were still married.”

“Her view of the terms of our separation was different from mine. This gave Kathleen pause. She didn’t want to interfere,” he wrote. “After that visit, Kathleen and I ended things, and I went back to Diandra.”
