According to TMZ, actor John Heard was found dead in a hotel in California yesterday. He was 72 years old. While he recently had minor surgery on his back, the cause of death at this time is unclear. John Matthew Heard Jr. was born in Washington D.C. in 1945, where his father worked for the Office of the Secretary of Defense and his mother acted in local community theaters. He started his career in New York theater before moving on to film and television with several made-for-TV-movies as well as feature films in the late seventies....

John Cena first showed his acting skills and charisma in professional wrestling. He has displayed his wide range by doing everything from action movies like The Marine to comedies like Blockers. His latest role as Jack Burns in Bumblebee, a spinoff of the Transformers films, uses both his action and comedy skills. Screen Rant: John, this movie took me right back to being a kid. And it’s crazy how much aesthetics with just the Transformers can just bring you back to that world....

He managed to scare millions of people from ever going in the ocean again with just two well-placed musical notes....

Warner Bros.’ Joker will achieve $1 billion at the worldwide box office today. After a fantastic opening in October, Joker has been shattering the box office left and right.

The Joaquin Phoenix-starring picture has received praise from a number of sources....

Avengers: Infinity War director Joe Russo may have sparked another round of Community movie speculation by taking a selfie with three of the show’s stars.

WWE wrestler turned blockbuster movie star John Cena apologizes to The Rock for slamming the latter’s move from wrestling to acting back in the day. Professional wrestlers have been trying their hand at silver screen stardom for decades now, and it’s not hard to understand why, as their industry is just as much about playing a character as it is about athletic prowess. In the 1980s and early 1990s WWF golden age, multiple future Hall of Famers did their best to make it big in Hollywood, including Hulk Hogan, “Rowdy” Roddy Piper, Jesse “The Body” Ventura, Andre the Giant, and Terry Funk....

Todd Phillips’ Joker is already dealing with controversy ahead of its worldwide release, and some theaters have taken action. The film will serve as an origin story for the classic Batman villain and is set in 1981, following failed stand-up comedian Arthur Fleck who turns to a life of crime in Gotham City after being constantly rejected by society. When it premiered at the 76th Venice International Film Festival on August 31, 2019, Joker won the Golden Lion and received positive reviews from critics, with most praising Joaquin Phoenix’s performance as the titular character....

Joker 2 looks likely to happen, which means the sequel needs to cast Batman to fight Joaquin Phoenix’s Arthur Fleck - here are some suggestions on who should play him. Joker has ended up being not just a box office hit but a box office game-changer. The first R-rated movie in history to crack $1 billion worldwide, Joker is now the most profitable comic book movie of all-time. Though director Todd Phillips has said a sequel has yet to be put into development, only two movies in history (Titanic and Zootopia) have managed to crack $1 billion worldwide without spawning one....

The 2020 BAFTA nominees have been announced, with Joker landing eleven nominations (including, Best Film and Actor). Todd Phillips’ DC movie has been a bonafide Oscar contender since it hit the festival circuit, winning the Golden Lion at Venice last September. It’s largely maintained its momentum since then, in spite of its polarizing (but overall positive) critical and audience reception. Joker was passed over for the National Board of Review’s top ten of 2019 (with The Irishman being named Best Film), but made the cut on the American Film Institute’s list shortly after and went on to pick up multiple Golden Globe nominations....

The Marvel Cinematic Universe will debut its 19th feature film with the premiere of Avengers: Infinity War. No directors have had a bigger impact on the MCU than brothers Anthony and Joe Russo.

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker star John Boyega admits it was his copy of the script that was stolen and placed on eBay. The Rise of Skywalker is of course billed as the final chapter in the Star Wars sequel trilogy, and given its significance in the grand scheme of Star Wars, it’s no surprise that director J.J. Abrams and company are taking every precaution possible to make sure that no spoilers make their way to the internet ahead of the film’s release....

For most of us, we first met John Rhys-Davies as Sallah, the jovial Egyptian excavator in Raiders of the Lost Ark. His booming voice and mellifluous rendition of Gilbert and Sullivan songs stole every scene he was in. Several decades later, a new generation would know him as Gimli, the dwarf warrior from Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings trilogy. Though he often speaks with a British baritone, the prolific actor has most often portrayed characters far from his native country of Wales....

Keanu Reeves rides a horse in a new set photo from John Wick: Chapter 3. Reeves found the perfect role to revitalize his career by playing the boogeyman known as John Wick. The 2014 film was one of the biggest surprises of the year, as it not only brought Reeves back to stardom, but also launched the careers of Chad Stahelski and David Leitch. While Leitch left to do Atomic Blonde and Deadpool 2, Stahelski went solo for John Wick: Chapter 2 and will do so again with the conclusion of this trilogy....

Warning: Contains SPOILERS For Joker One of the biggest mysteries at the heart of the story of Joker is whether or not Thomas Wayne truly is Arthur Fleck’s father. While the movie presents this idea as a delusion that Arthur adopts from his equally unbalanced mother, there is some evidence to suggest that Penny Fleck was telling the truth about a love affair with the famous billionaire and that he fathered her son....
