That Kurt Russell is one of our finest actors should go without saying, but it's almost more important to applaud him specifically because his career began in a place that hasn't always fostered long-term success for young actors: Disney. Although the House of Mouse and its related studios often feature plenty of opportunities for young and talented actors (think Lindsay Lohan or Shia Labeouf), those same actors can struggle professionally and personally when they try to grow beyond their Disney years. The same is absolutely untrue for Russell, who became one of the most reliable and enjoyably sly action stars of the 1980s and 1990s, serving as a welcome on-screen presence in everything from "The Thing" to "Big Trouble in Little China" to "Breakdown." But Russell has also appeared in a jaw-dropping number of Disney productions; when you count titles from both Disney proper and studios like Marvel and Touchstone,...

Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn are one of Hollywood's most revered celebrity couples, and that point isn't really up for debate; they're two old-school Hollywood movie stars whose kids are also famous. With that said, are their on-screen collaborations any good? Sort of!

Russell and Hawn have been together since 1983, and their family has no shortage of superstars — their son Wyatt Russell is an actor whom you've probably seen in "Black Mirror," "22 Jump Street," and "The Falcon and the Winter Soldier," and through Hawn Russell is a stepfather to Kate Hudson and Oliver Hudson (their father is musician Bill Hudson). Famous shared family aside, Russell and Hawn have also been in a handful of films together; they actually met on the set of the lowest-ranked one on this list. Before you check them out, you might want to consider which Russell-Hawn films are a total skip and which ones you should actually watch,...

Richard M. Sherman, two-time Oscar winner who collaborated with brother Robert B. Sherman on the songs for “Mary Poppins,” “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang” and the enduring Disneyland tune “It’s a Small World (After All),” died Saturday at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Beverly Hills due to age-related illness. He was 95.

The Sherman brothers worked in a job that no longer exists: inhouse songwriters for a studio. In their case, the studio was Disney, and the brothers were hired for that steady gig after their 1958 song “Tall Paul” was a hit for Mouseketeer Annette Funicello.

In the early 1960s, they penned tunes for Hayley Mills in Disney films “The Parent Trap,” “In Search of the Castaways” and “Summer Magic,” as well as songs for “The Absent-Minded Professor” and “Moon Pilot”; Walt Disney, always aware of synergy, made sure his family comedies had a tune with radio-play potential. The Shermans wrote for...

Dinner with Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell felt more like an inquisition for Anna Faris after the longtime couple heard the actress was starring in a remake of their 1987 film Overboard.

Faris described the slightly awkward encounter during an interview with her costar Eugenio Derbez on Monday’s episode of Today.

“I had a run-in with Kurt and Goldie, and Kurt said, ‘So we’re taking you to dinner because we hear that you’re doin’ our movie,'” the Mom star, 41, recalled.

Although she admitted it “felt terrifying,” Faris said the lovebirds talked about their amazing experience of working on the movie together.

After 35 years of dating, Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell still know how to incorporate humor into their adorable relationship. On Wednesday, March 28, Goldie took to Instagram to joke that she cheated on Kurt — but with a very cute dog, don't worry! "Two-timing Kurt on the set of his movie...
