The closest we’ve gotten to seeing Mark Ruffalo go off the handle onscreen is while playing that not-so-jolly green giant, The Hulk. (And, yes, the actor is down for a standalone Hulk movie, FYI.)

FRIDAY MIDDAY: Universal’s The Fall Guy is coming in a little light right now at $10.4M today, including previews, for what’s looking like a $28M opening at 4,002 theaters, below its $35M projection. Many aren’t shocked: This is where action comedies open, and Fall Guy isn’t that far from the $30M starts of Paramount 2022 adventure rom-com The Lost City and...

I can’t believe I’m actually about to type the following sentence, but here it goes. Director Guillermo del Toro’s Hellboy has officially celebrated its 20th anniversary.

But it’ll all be for naught if you don’t smell good. “Manners and a good cologne is what transforms the...

Genre movies like science fiction and fantasy rarely get their due at the Oscars. While movies that show us the impossible tend to be among the most popular at the box office, that popularity rarely translates to the most prestigious awards. It can be argued that many sci-fi movies deserved Best Picture nominations, but few have received such recognition, and only a couple of very recent films...

In the entrancing Yorgos Lanthimos comedy Poor Things, Emma Stone plays a brilliant baby. Anyway, that’s the simplest way of describing the Oscar-nominated actress’s star turn as Bella Baxter, a Frankenstein-like fusion of an infant’s fast-growing brain and a grown woman’s body, who ventures out into a technicolor version of Victorian England in order to assert her...

Zendaya isn’t just a style god to us mere mortals—even her equally fashionable Dune: Part Two co-stars like Timothée Chalamet and Florence Pugh have publicly admitted to bowing down at the actress’ sartorial altar.

Brown’s best performances, earning the actor his first Oscar nomination. But will it be the one to score the multihyphenate talent that coveted EGOT?  Of course,...

How actor Paul Giamatti’s love story with his girlfriend, Clara Wong, began hasn’t been publicly told yet.

Steve Martin and his wife Anne Stringfield have been together for almost two decades, but they’ve managed to keep their relationship almost entirely private.
