Christina Ricci doesn’t want her 10-year-old son to be a child actor, but not for the reason some might think.

The actress made a recent appearance on the Today show, where she was asked if her son, Freddie, would ever follow in her acting footsteps.

“Well, my son Freddie likes to come to set. He’s been on the set of Yellowjackets quite a lot,” Ricci explained. “He actually has his own chair. And he loves being on set and thinks it’s so fun, and every time he’s on set, he asks me if he can be a child actor.”

However, per Ricci, he likely won’t be landing any roles anytime soon for one logistical reason.

“I’m like, ‘Who’s going to take you, like I have to work.’ So, no. Because I’m like, ‘Who’s going to go with you? I can’t go with you,...

On Monday, organizers of the British indie film awards confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter that the House of Cards star is set to win a best performance trophy for his role in Control.

The British legal proceeding ended with the embattled Hollywood actor cleared of all charges.

Control is a movie on Amazon Prime about a secret affair between the British Prime Minister, David Adams (played by Mark Hampton), and the Home Secretary, Stella Simmons (played by Lauren Metcalfe). Their hidden relationship leads to some serious consequences. You know how powerful people often think they can do whatever they want and get away with it, right? They sometimes don’t consider the feelings or lives of those who work under them. They might use people, extort them, and take advantage of their situations just because they hold power. This is exactly what happens in Control. The Prime Minister and the Home Secretary use their positions to get what they want without worrying about anyone else. But actions like these always have consequences. Their deeds don’t go unnoticed. Now, someone wants revenge. This person plans to make them pay for what they’ve done. Who is this mysterious avenger?...

Christina Ricci is living her best life on vacation with her partner, celebrity hairdresser Mark Hampton. The Yellowjackets star recently posted loved-up photos of the couple on lounging in Hawaii.

This vacation comes after drama with her ex, James Heerdegen.

Last month, she went on a trip to New York City with her oldest son, Freddie, whom she shares with Heerdegen.

According to Ricci, Heerdegen initially gave her permission to take their son on the trip but then later changed his mind. In response, Ricci requested an emergency court hearing with her ex.

During the hearing, Ricci stated, “Jimmy’s refusal to agree causes me concern because he clearly was being vindictive and retaliatory when he initially refused my request to travel for the additional dates. As recently as Monday, June 19, 2023, Jimmy was agreeable to allowing Freddie to travel with me, but apparently, he still wants to wait until our hearing to discuss it.

Academy Award winner Kevin Spacey's new film "Control" is set to release in December, marking his return to the big screen after his acquittal for sexual assault. Directed by Gene Fallaize, the thriller features Spacey in a major voice role as a mysterious man who remotely hijacks the car of a British politician. Despite controversy surrounding Spacey's casting, Fallaize stands by his decision.

A few days ago, Cupsogue Pictures unveiled a trailer for the low budget thriller Control, which marks the first film to have Kevin Spacey in the cast since his sex offenses trial ended with the actor being found “not guilty of all nine charges related to sexual misconduct, including seven of sexual assault.” Spacey’s part is entirely vocal and he recorded his lines last December. Now it has been announced (via Variety) that Control has secured a release date. The film is set to be released in both the United States and the United Kingdom on December 15th.

Oddly, Variety also notes the movie doesn’t have a US distributor yet, so it’s not clear how it can already have a release date. But it’s said to be likely that sales agent TriCoast Worldwide will end up releasing it through their distribution arm, TriCoast Entertainment.

Spacey’s...

A couple weeks ago, Kevin Spacey’s sex offenses trial ended with the actor being found “not guilty of all nine charges related to sexual misconduct, including seven of sexual assault.” So now Cupsogue Pictures has gone ahead and unveiled a trailer for the upcoming low budget thriller Control, which happens to have Spacey in the cast. You won’t see him in the trailer embedded above, but his voice is quite prominent. According to Variety, Spacey’s performance in the film is entirely vocal.

Spacey’s Control character is a menacing presence who manages to hijack a government official’s smart car in order to exact revenge.

The government official, Home Secretary Stella Simmons, is played by Lauren Metcalfe, who has previously had small roles on Bridgerton and the TV series version of War of the Worlds that starred Gabriel Bryne. Mark Hampton (Liaison) is also in the cast as Prime Minister David Addams.

“Control,” Kevin Spacey’s first project since he was acquitted of sexual assault in the U.K., has dropped its first trailer.

Spacey, who was found not guilty on all counts last month at Southwark Crown Court, can be heard but not seen in the upcoming thriller.

In the micro-budget film, which was directed by Gene Fallaize, Spacey plays a menacing presence who manages to hijack a government official’s smart car in order to exact revenge.

The actor recorded his part, which is entirely vocal, in London last December while awaiting trial. He was cleared of nine charges against four men by a jury in July.

After the verdict was delivered, Fallaize told Variety he was glad he had stuck by Spacey. “I don’t regret casting Kevin and I would do it all over again,” said Fallaize.

“When we met with Kevin, we said, you know, [the meeting] is for...

Kevin Spacey could be returning to cinemas sooner than expected.

Control, the U.K. indie thriller which cast the two-time Oscar winner in a voice role in late 2022 as he awaited his London criminal trial over multiple counts of sexual assault — a trial that ended on July 26. with him cleared of all nine charges — is aiming for a theatrical domestic release before the end of the year, according to its sales agent.

“We would like to have the film in cinemas in December,” explains Strath Hamilton, co-ceo of TriCoast Worldwide, which is repping the film, adding that he’s now having “serious conversations” with buyers in the U.S. and U.K.

Written and directed by Gene Fallaize, Control follows follows the British home secretary (Lauren Metcalfe) as she drives home one night while engaging in a secret love affair with the prime minister (Mark Hampton). Meanwhile, another man — played...

Gene Fallaize, the director behind Kevin Spacey's latest film, Control, says casting the actor while he was awaiting trial for sexual abuse a "risk worth taking." On Wednesday, Spacey was acquitted of sexual assault charges in a London court after a four-week trial. Last October, Spacey faced a Manhattan court for sexual battery charges stemming from a 1986 incident; he was found not liable. As allegations against Spacey, which date back to 2017, began to trickle in, the Academy Award winner's career began to suffer. Most notably, the actor was fired from House of Cards after reports alleging inappropriate behavior towards several young men on set.

Spacey now has a couple of projects in the works, including Fallaize's Control, an indie thriller also starring Lauren Metcalfe and Mark Hampton. Control follows British Home Secretary Stella Simmons as she drives home one night while engaging in an affair with the Prime Minister.

Christina Ricci treated her eight-year-old son to a trip to New York City despite her ex-husband, James Heerdegen, attempting to prevent him from going.

The Wednesday and Yellowjackets actress shared her and Freddie’s experience through her Instagram Stories. The trip began with a visit to the famed Fao Schwarz toy store where Ricci bought a box of Marvin’s Magic Snow, a powder that creates imitation snow when added to water.

The pair then went to Central Park and ate at the chic restaurant, Craft, afterward. There, Freddie dined on Osetra caviar dish with potato rosti, crème fraîche and a watermelon mocktail.

Ricci stated through court documents that Heerdegen would not permit Freddie to go with her to New York City after previously agreeing to the trip. She called the film producer’s behavior “vindictive” and later said, “Jimmy seems to be more focused on harassing and punishing me...

Christina Ricci is a prominent American actress and producer. She made her film debut at just nine years old in Mermaids, which was then followed up by her breakout role as Wednesday Addams in The Addams family and its sequel, Addams Family Values.

Christina Ricci Biography: Age, Early Life, Family, Education

Christina Ricci was born on February 12, 1980 (Ricci’s age: 43) in Santa Monica, California to Ralph and Sarah Ricci. Her mother worked as a Ford Agency model during the 1960s before later finding work as a real estate agent. Her father had a more varied career, finding jobs as a lawyer, gym teacher, drug counselor, and primal scream therapist.

Early on in her childhood, Ricci and her family relocated to Montclair, New Jersey. She is the youngest of four. Her three older siblings are Dante, Rafael, and Pia. Her parents split up just as she was entering her teenage years,...

Christina Ricci is a proud mom of two, and her youngest celebrated her birthday this past December. "This little dream baby is 1 year old today!!!!" the "Wednesday" star captioned a photo of daughter Cleopatra Ricci Hampton bundled up in a striped sweater and crochet beanie. "She's a gift from the universe. Broke our hearts open wide again." Christina's husband, celebrity hairdresser Mark Hampton, shared his excitement in his own post on Instagram. "One lap round the sun! What a year," he captioned a photo of himself and Cleo bundled up outside.

In addition to her daughter, Cleo, Christina has a son, Freddie Heerdegen, whom she shares with ex-husband James Heerdegen. In a September 2022 interview with People, the actor said that Freddie is "really helpful" with Cleo and has been a fantastic big brother to his baby sister. "He can help me make a bottle. He can help me in the bathtub with her.

If your perception of Christina Ricci is burned into your brain from the Nineties — when she broke into the public consciousness as the sullen child at the heart of the original Addams Family movie, then went on to play a sullen teen in Casper, a sullen tomboy in Now and Then, and a sullen new kid in Gold Diggers: The Secret of Bear Mountain — you’d be forgiven for struggling to see her any other way. She does, too. Over the course of an hour-plus lunch on an overcast December day in Los Angeles,...

“There are certain things that I have collected, certain bags,” the 42-year-old said. “I had quite a Chanel-handbag collection for a while, but I sold a lot of things.”

Asked why she decided to sell her things, Ricci explained, “Well, certain traumas in life go along with financial traumas, extended court situations, custody situations, fighting restraining orders.”

She then added, “Having said that, I’m absolutely doing fine, there’s no issue. But I learnt to use these investment pieces in different ways. I also had a Chanel Fine Jewellery collection that I put to good use.

At various points, the actress addressed some of the more emotionally tricky intricacies of her childhood, including growing up in a “very chaotic home,” not having spoken to her father since she was a teen and navigating a childhood punishment style.

Speaking to being a young teen in Hollywood during the ’90s, Ricci shared she would frequent industry parties as a teen by herself, showing up “at the Bowery Bar in my baby Anna Sui T-shirt and my Carhartt pants and literally my school backpack.
