Matthew Lillard has established himself as one of the premier Scream Kings in Hollywood, but 21 years ago, he teamed up with a star from The Boys for a slapstick comedy that’s returned to streaming charts. Lillard stars alongside Antony Starr and Seth Green in Without a Paddle, the mystery/adventure film following three men who go camping in search of the lost D.B. Cooper money after one of their friends dies. Without a Paddle is currently streaming on Paramount+, and the film has returned to the streamer’s top 10, sitting at #8 at the time of writing. Without a Paddle was maligned by critics who reviewed it at a 15% clip on Rotten Tomatoes, but fans were kinder to the film, giving it a 68% score on the aggregate site. It grossed $73 million at the box office against a $19 million budget.

It took a team consisting of Fred Wolf, Harris Goldberg, Tom Nursall,...

Paramount+ has a lot to offer this June. The biggest highlight is the 78th Annual Tony Awards, which airs on June 8. It’s hosted by Wicked star Cynthia Erivo and features stars from TV like Bob Odenkirk, Sarah Snook, and George Clooney.

Another big release is Love Me, a new movie starring Kristen Stewart and Steven Yeun. It comes out on June 16.

There are also many great movies coming to the service this month, like But I’m a Cheerleader, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, No Country for Old Men, and The Godfather trilogy. Keep reading to see the full list!

Exclusive: Seth Green has joined the cast of The Conners for the upcoming seventh and final season.

Green will play Chad, Darlene’s new friend at the Lobo who is going through a separation from his wife, in a three-episode arc. Chad and Darlene confide in each other and bond, a little too closely, over their similar biting humor.

The Roseanne follow-up series will kick off its final, abbreviated six-episode season on Wednesday, March 26 at 8 pm on ABC.

For over three decades, audiences have followed along with the Conners as they navigate the daily struggles of life in Lanford. Dan, Jackie, Darlene and Becky grapple with parenthood, marriage, financial pressures and aging in working-class America. Through it all—the fights, the coupon cutting, the hand-me-downs, the breakdowns—with love, humor and perseverance, the family prevails.

It stars John Goodman as Dan Conner, Laurie Metcalf as Jackie Harris, Sara Gilbert as Darlene Conner,...

2025 is in full swing, and with March just around the corner, it’s time for you to look ahead at the movies and series scheduled to depart Netflix throughout the month of March. The biggest notable TV series leaving is The Mindy Project, while hit films like Scooby-Doo and Love Again, among others, are also set to depart.

As always, Netflix’s library is constantly evolving. That means new titles are always on the way, but because Netflix licenses titles from big distributors, they’re not always on Netflix forever. When this license (or rental period) comes to an end, the movie or series leaves Netflix.

Note: This list will be constantly updated throughout February as we learn of more series and movies set to leave (typically 30 days before their departure). In the last few weeks of the month, Netflix...

Antony Starr first made a name for himself around 20 years ago in projects like Without a Paddle (Seth Green) and Outrageous Fortune (Robyn Malcolm), but in 2025 he’s best known for his role as Homelander in The Boys, the raunchy hit Prime Video superhero series. However, around the same time as he was starring in smaller projects, he also auditioned for an iconic character that ultimately went to Daniel Craig. That’s right, Homelander himself once screen tested for the role of James Bond, and now fans can watch his audition for free on YouTube. Ron South posted the nearly five-minute clip on his channel, and he says he found the tape in the recycling bin of a movie studio, along with another audition tape for Henry Cavill.

Netflix has revealed the list of films and TV series that will be removed from the streaming service beginning on February 1, 2025, and continuing throughout the month.

There are two TV shows that are being removed: The Mindy Project and Brooklyn Nine-Nine. There are several fan fave movies that are departing as well, including the Fast and the Furious franchise.

We’ve compiled the full list here for you to see. Be sure to mark your calendars and stream these titles if you haven’t already!

Dancing With the Stars has opened the door for new opportunities for some celebrities who have competed on the show. In Season 33, The Bachelor's Joey Graziadei and his fiance Kelsey Anderson went from reality TV stars to popular influencers. Model Brooks Nader and Gleb Savchenko's showmance made constant headlines. Even former mirrorball trophy winner and 90s actor, Alfonso Ribeiro, found himself with a brand-new career as the show's co-host.

However, not every celebrity who gets approached to be on DWTS finds it a great opportunity for their career. A certain Hollywood actor turned down the chance to be a contestant for fears that he wouldn't be able to land any more serious acting roles. For this actor, the thought of competing on the beloved reality TV show would just do the opposite for his career.

Esther Acebo, best known for playing Stockholm in Netflix’s global smash hit “Money Heist,” has signed on to star in Nestor Ruiz Medina’s upcoming feature “In the End, Everything Will Be Fine” (“Al Finald Toda va a Estar Bien”).

Described as a “critique on today’s society in the vein of Ruben Östlund,” the film will tell five interweaving stories that touch on the “essence of the stupidity of humanity.”

Acebo’s credits include “Money Heist,” Prime Video’s “Operación Marea Negra” and “Antes de Perder” on Playz. Her feature film resume includes roles in Ignacio Tatay’s “Jaula” and Joaquín Mazón’s “De Perdidos al Río.” She is currently filming “La Increíble Historia de Julia Pastrana” for Disney+ and the feature “Normas para una Página de Sucesos” by director José Ortuño.

Quick Links Antony Starr's Journey to The Boys Antony Starr as Homelander in The Boys The Boys Fans Will Love Starr's Performance in Banshee

With the return of the hit superhero satire The Boys on June 13, 2024, Amazon Prime Video was caught in an unexpected dilemma. Although the series continued to break viewership records, drawing 55 million viewers in 39 days (via The Hollywood Reporter), the consensus among fans suggests the show has lost its magic. For instance, the show's inaugural season holds a 91% Rotten Tomatoes Audience Score, nearly 40 percentage points higher than Season 4's mediocre 53% rating.

Moreover, New Zealand star Antony Starr, who plays the amusing villain Homelander in The Boys, has recently expressed misgivings about being publicly idolized and mistaken for his evil character (via The L.A. Times). The recent backlash to The Boys Season 4 offers a perfect opportunity for fans of the show to check out Starr's underrated crime series Banshee,...

Wondery, Amazon’s leading podcast and entertainment company, announced an exclusive distribution and ad-sales deal for the massively popular podcast, Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard. As part of the deal, Wondery and Armchair Expert will co-develop and produce two new podcasts for fans, and one livestream per year. Wondery will also have a first-look option for any additional new podcasts created by Dax Shepard.

Starting September 1, the deal includes rights to the Armchair Expert full back catalog of podcast content, distribution rights to RSS feed, launch video episodes for the first time, as well as rights to create translated versions of the podcast for Wondery’s global audience. In addition, new episodes of Armchair Expert will be available one week early and ad-free on Wondery+ exclusively for subscribers, prior to going wide.

Exclusive: The Esx Entertainment produced horror movie The Necklace has added actresses Christina Moore and Brynne Kurland to their growing cast which includes sisters Madeleine & Violet McGraw (respectively from M3GAN and The Black Phone), Sarah Lind, Felix Solis and Jacob Moran.

John Ducey wrote the screenplay which Juan

Pablo Arias Muñoz is directing.

The Necklace watches as the Davis family navigates through tough times in 1960. Laura Davis has separated from her husband Frank due to his unpredictable temper, fueled by alcohol. As Laura returns to work as a nurse, her daughters, 11-year-old Ellen (Violet McGraw) and 16-year-old Judy (Madeleine McGraw), grapple with the changes in their family dynamics. The plot thickens when Frank attempts to win Laura back with a beautiful antique necklace, which turns out to be a conduit for the tormented soul of an evil boy from long ago, putting Laura and her daughters in grave danger.

Antony Starr gained fame as Homelander but had significant roles in New Zealand TV before The Boys. His net worth is $2 million, likely earned from years of acting and playing Homelander on The Boys. Starr almost didn't audition for the role of Homelander, but ended up being an excellent fit for the memorable character.

Antony Starr may be best known for one specific role, but the actor has had other notable performances in his career that have totaled up to a tidy net worth. Starr's first notable acting role came in 1995, when he played Mesas in an episode of Xena: Warrior Princess, and a year later, he again appeared on the show as a different character named David. His first significant part came in the New Zealand series Mercy Peak as Todd Van der Velter from 2001 to 2003, and larger roles, primarily in his native New Zealand, became more frequent.

With the actor’s strike finally over, Matthew Lillard can finally talk about the plum role he has in Five Nights at Freddy’s. In a recent THR interview, Lillard mentioned being thrilled about how fans have reacted to the film, noting:

“Being 53 years old — and being around the block a couple times — I have a much deeper sense of appreciation in this moment than I probably have ever had because I didn’t expect it. I realize that these opportunities don’t come around that often. It’s been a really rich, joyful moment because I can sort of sit back and appreciate it on a deeper level.”

Lillard’s character, who has a rich mythology in the game, could well wind-up being a recurring presence in the Five Nights at Freddy’s world, especially with the film such a huge hit in theaters and on Peacock. But, it turns...

Five Nights at Freddy’s has several notable characters from the video games that have made it into the new movie. Not all of Five Nights at Freddy’s characters are human, and it's no secret that the animatronics have become the stars of the show. The cast of Fnaf is equally iconic with names like Matthew Lillard and Josh Hutcherson leading a wildly talented cast.

This article contains spoilers for Five Nights at Freddy's, now streaming on Peacock.

Video game adaptations are an increasingly popular trend, with movies like Super Mario Bros and Tetris stealing the show. While they're not the best rated, especially by critics, movies that adapt video games are always promising. The latest video game adaptation only solidifies that with Five Nights at Freddy's.

Five Nights at Freddy's is a highly beloved video game franchise, bringing a horror twist to children's entertainment places like Chuck E. Cheese. The...

Cobweb begins a week before Halloween when Peter is woken up by the sound of knocking seemingly coming from inside his bedroom wall. You can’t blame him for being creeped out, with its peeling paint and backyard full of rotting pumpkins the house already looks like something out of a horror movie. And then there’s that weird bulging thing the walls in his room do while he’s sleeping.

We also quickly learn that he has no friends and gets bullied at school. His parents Carol and Mark also won’t let him dress up for Halloween, something that may be related to the disappearance of a young girl a few years ago. Unsurprisingly they also don’t believe him about the knocking.

Matthew Lillard is a horror legend and we don't say it enough. We know him and we love him from films like "She's All That," "Slc Punk," "Without a Paddle" ... any "Love's Labour's Lost" fans out there? But the man got his start in horror and his irrepressible comic spirit and fearless willingness to switch to pitch-black menace on a dime have made him an extremely effective and underrated horror star, as you can see in films like "Scream," "Scooby Doo," and "Thirteen Ghosts." 

Lillard has just added another glinting badge to his vest in the form of "Five Nights at Freddy's." We meet him as Steve Raglan, the career counselor that our hero, Mike Schmidt (Josh Hutcherson), is sent to after he beats up a dad in front of his son while on the job. Mike is a man of few words,...

Sarah Michelle Gellar, Emma Caulfield, and Seth Green reunite for a mini Buffy the Vampire Slayer cast reunion at a recent Ed Sheeran concert. Gellar played Buffy in the series, while Caulfield's Anya and Green's Oz became popular supporting characters. While all three actors have remained very busy since the conclusion of the series back in 2003, the latest images suggest their bond has stood the test of time.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer actors Sarah Michelle Gellar, Emma Caulfield, and Seth Green reunite in a charming new batch of photos. First airing in 1997 on The WB, the hit series ultimately ran for seven seasons before coming to an end in 2003. Gellar starred in the show in the titular role, with a story that chronicled her many adventures fighting evil alongside a trusty band of companions.

Prolific Andalusian production company La Claqueta has tapped award-winning screenwriter-producer Alberto Marini to direct rural thriller “Últimos días de caza” (“Last Days of Hunting.”)

Penned by José Cabeza, co-scribe on 2016’s “7 Years,” Netflix first Spanish original movie, “Last Days of Hunting” has a completed screenplay and has initiated financing.

The aim is to close the financing phase during this year and begin shooting second quarter 2024, probably in northern Spain.

“Last Days of Hunting” leads a growth-period for Seville-based La Claqueta, which is raising the ante in terms of film production ambitions.

“This is a noir that revolves around torpid masculinity; it is the story of volcanoes that don’t know how to release lava when they should and that explode inwards,” said Marini, who debuted as a helmer with 2015 horror feature “Summer Camp.”

“The story takes place in a very localized universe and is grounded in the territory but...

The Movie: "Heavyweights"

Where You Can Stream It: Disney+

The Pitch: Teenager Gerry Garner (Aaron Schwartz) is excited to hang out with his friends and enjoy his summer vacation, only to come home from the last day of school to an intervention from his parents regarding his weight. Without his knowledge or consent, Gerry is being sent off to Camp Hope, a weight loss camp for boys run by The Bushkins (Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara). Gerry is initially against the idea, but after meeting veteran camper Roy (Kenan Thompson) and the enthusiastic camp counselor Pat Finley (Tom McGowan), Gerry thinks this summer might not be so bad after all. 

Unfortunately, all of that changes when the Bushkins announce that...

The timing could not be more exquisite. Just as exhibitors and studios prepare to gather for their first full-throated, in-person CinemaCon convention in Las Vegas that begins April 25, bête noire Netflix revealed the streaming service lost 200,000 customers in Q1 2022 and will lose another 2 million in Q2.

For the National Association of Theater Owners, this is a long, dark drink of schadenfreude with a caffeine boost. Netflix, to a near-absurd degree, symbolized a nuclear threat to box office. However, this proves that while Netflix is a disruptor, it operates under the same laws of gravity that govern every other business.

However, to put this in perspective: It’s a dire prospect, losing more than 2 million users in six months — but that would represent one percent of the Netflix user base. For theaters, domestic gross for first quarter 2022 was 1.33 billion; the same period in 2019 grossed 2.44 billion. That’s a 45 percent drop and...

“Spider-Man: No Way Home” (Sony/19.99) retains its spot as #1 on all three VOD charts for a fourth week, a record since IndieWire started tracking home viewing. Next week, the film could extend its streak — but expect that to be the end with the impending debut of Warner Bros.’ “The Batman.”

Sources with knowledge of Warners’ plans indicate “The Batman” will be made available on PVOD April 18 — the same day it starts streaming on HBO Max. Even a blockbuster of this size will feed the studio’s streamer after 45 days.

“The Batman” was the first Warners release since the end of the studio’s “Project Popcorn,” which gave 2021 theatrical releases day-and-date play on HBO Max. In that period, the studio usually delayed PVOD for at least 60 days after initial release, and it began after the initial streaming period ended. This will be the first opportunity to gauge its new home-release strategies.

The 1990s were the heyday for kid-led sports movies, with films like "The Big Green," "The Sandlot," "Little Giants," "Ladybugs," "Air Bud," "Little Big League," "Angels in the Outfield," and "Rookie of the Year" becoming household favorites, but only one* became a certified cultural phenomenon. Disney's "The Mighty Ducks" spawned a trilogy of films, an animated television series, a live-action sequel television series, and a real-life National Hockey League hockey team. The feature writing debut of Steve Brill, "The Mighty Ducks" nabbed Stephen...

On November 24, 1971, a man calling himself Dan Cooper hijacked Northwest Orient Airlines flight 305 from Portland to Seattle (a trip known as a “milk run” due to the short distance involved). A few minutes into the voyage, he got the attention of a flight attendant and made it known that he had a bomb that he intended to use unless his demands were met. What did he want? $200,000 in unmarked bills and four parachutes.

After the plane was on the ground in Seattle, the passengers were let go, the plane was refueled, and Cooper was granted his money and chutes. He instructed the pilot to head towards Mexico City, making it clear that the wing flaps were to remain at 15 degrees and landing gear to stay deployed, the cabin remain depressurized, and that the craft was not to exceed an altitude of 10,000 feet.

Some time after the trip to Mexico City began,...

Until 2019, Antony Starr was probably best known for his role as Lucas Hood in Cinemax's original series, Banshee, and as Billy Newwood in Paramount Picture's Without A Paddle. As Homelander, Starr made an immediate impact in the Amazon Prime series, The Boys. But before his notoriety on the hit series, Starr's claim to fame stemmed mostly from television and movies in his island country of New Zealand.

In New Zealand, fans knew him as Jethro and Van West in the beloved comedy-drama television series, Outrageous Fortune. He has won various awards, including the Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Award, the Qantas Television Award, and the Air New Zealand Screen Award. It is unexpectedly enlightening to discover the actor's varied roles in both television and movies.

If you thought you’d seen it all when it came to Superheroes, the mega hit series ‘The Boys’ by Amazon Prime Original series made everyone eat humble pie. The series offers an alternative take on the superhero world and the way they are perceived in a way beyond your wildest imagination.

Set in a world where the multi-billion corporation Vought has their own brand of superheroes called The Seven or Supes, who have undisputed power over the public, politicians and the truth, we see a band of people team up to put them in their place and revolt against injustice.

After a phenomenal season 1, The Boys are ready to rock in season 2 with new episodes being dropped every Friday on Amazon Prime Video. With a third season already on the cards, it appears as though the show's incredible cast is going to be around for a very long time.

We have our first look at Hubie Halloween, the latest collaboration between Adam Sandler and Netflix. Sandler has had a long-standing deal with the streaming service that has seen movies like The Ridiculous 6, The Do-Over and Murder Mystery released over the last several years. This time, Sandler is making an original movie that will be here just in time for Halloween. Netflix has revealed the first photos, in addition to the release date. Taking to Twitter, the streaming service said the following.

"It's a Sandler Halloween. Hubie Halloween on Netflix globally 7 October."

The photos show us a mustached Adam Sandler in a poor excuse for a ghost costume, as well as Maya Rudolph decked out as the Bride of Frankenstein alongside a headless Tim Meadows. We also get a glimpse at a cop played by Kevin James who is far more focused on his candy bar than his job.

This new Amazon series The Boys has intrigued me more and more with everything I see from it. It looks really different and dark and gritty, and I am stoked for it. This new trailer give us more footage along with more interesting insight on the story.

The series stars Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, Antony Starr (Without a Paddle), Erin Moriarty (The Kings of Summer), Jessie T. Usher (Independence Day), Laz Alonso, Chace Crawford (Gossip Girl), Tomer Capon (Fullmoon), Karen Fukuhara (Suicide Squad), Dominique McElligott, Nathan Mitchell (iZombie), and Elisabeth Shue.

The series follows a group of vigilantes who join forces to take down superheroes that are abusing their super powers. The series is already getting crazy hype, as we learned yesterday that the show already got picked up for a second season! The first season hasn’t even premiered yet! But it sure does look incredibly cool.

Next month, Netflix offers up a big selection of films of all stripes — modern to classic, animated to live action, Best Picture winners to teen phenomenons — and we’ve picked seven that you should watch as soon as humanly possible, either for the first time or as part of a nostalgic little binge. Enjoy.

1. “Unforgiven” (available October 1)

The winner of four Oscars, including Best Picture, Clint Eastwood’s 1992 film “Unforgiven” is the last Western he directed and starred in, and he made it count. About an aging outlaw tasked with one final job, the film examines the myths of the West and how they’re perverted and distorted over time, as well as the contradictions within established national archetypes. It’s arguably Eastwood’s defining masterpiece, and one of the very best films of the 90s. See it immediately.

2. “Dazed and Confused” (available October 1)

The 1993 cult classic “Dazed and Confused...

In a blink of an eye it’ll be October. The air will turn crisp, the leaves will turn beautiful shades of orange, and you’ll get to crack out your favorite sweatshirt (unless you live in Los Angeles like me, in which case it’ll be 90 and you’ll sweat involuntarily). But rather than playing outside, what you really want to do is watch Netflix. October presents a whole new list of viewing opportunities with classics like Breakfast at Tiffany’s and Patton. If you choose to skip a day of work, what could be better than Ferris Bueller’s Day Off or Snow Day? And then there are no shortage of Netflix originals that are being added. The ones I’m looking most forward to are Mascots from Christopher Guest (Spinal Tap, Best in Show) and the third season of the under-appreciated Mr. Peabody and Sherman Show. For...

He’s a lucky guy with a gorgeous wife, and Dax Shepard credits his buddy Jason Bateman with giving him the extra push he needed to settle down with Kristen Bell.

During an interview with People, the “Without a Paddle” hunk explained, “Jason was the first to go, ‘Stop f*cking around and marry Kristen,’” adding that the “Arrested Development” stud also encouraged procreation.

Motioning to Bateman, Dax continued, “You immediately transitioned into 'Get her pregnant.’ I would say you were at the very forefront of cracking the whip on that. And you were dead right." Shepard and Bell currently have a two-year-old daughter named Lincoln and an 11-week-old daughter named Delta.

D.B. Cooper leapt into history one Thanksgiving weekend in 1971. Here's a look at the mysterious skyjacker's pop culture impact.

“You hijack the flight and disappear into the night. Captain’s voice sounds tight: “be calm and it’ll be all right.” The passengers all eyes, a growing fear inside them. Vapor trails and light, all we see tonight but it’s all right.”– Everything is Fine, “Vapor Trails and Light”

On November 24, 1971, a man calling himself Dan Cooper hijacked Northwest Orient Airlines flight 305 from Portland to Seattle (a trip known as a “milk run” due to the short distance involved). A few minutes into the voyage, he got the attention of a flight attendant and made it known that he had a bomb that he intended to use unless his demands were met. What did he want? $200,000 in unmarked bills and four parachutes.

Has it actually been ten years already since we have been engaged in the realm of films dating back to 2004? A decade is certainly a long period of time to build our appreciation for cinema up until this critical point in 2014. In looking back at 2004, one can recall fondly some of the more desirable releases to come out at that time. For instance, the superb Million Dollar Baby was the Academy Award-winning film for 2004. Even the comedies that were released that year gave movie audiences cause to rejoice with such ditties as the sleeper indie hit Napoleon Dynamite and well as mainstream laughers in Mean Girls and Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgandy.

Unfortunately for every gem there is a dud and then some. And 2004 had its share to say the least. So how about getting nostalgic and recalling some of the notable misses that were heaped on misled moviegoers...

Elizabeth Banks just wanted to borrow someone's phone, okay?

In this exclusive (and very R-rated) clip for "Walk of Shame," Elizabeth Banks's character, Meghan, is lost and trying to make a phone call after a particularly eventful evening. See also: the title of the movie. In modern parlance, the walk of shame is what one does after having intimate relations with another person that they've just met. A walk of shame is usually done in one's clothes and/or makeup from the night before, unless it's Halloween, in which case the walk of shame is done in one's Halloween costume.

Unfortunately for Meghan, her walk of shame is much more complicated. The recognizable TV reporter has to navigate Los Angeles without cash, a car, her phone, or even her ID. And she has to do it in time to make a really important job interview for a network news anchor gig!

Following a somewhat underwhelming trailer earlier this year for the comedy Walk of Shame starring Elizabeth Banks, a second red band trailer offers a slightly better look at the comedy. While the terrible audio editing in the first half of the trailer is thoroughly distracting, Banks shines as she runs around Los Angeles, trying to get her car back in order to make it to the most important job interview of her career as a news anchorwoman. Meanwhile, her one-night-stand James Marsden and friends Gillian Jacobs and Sarah Wright are in hot pursuit, trying to end her long night from hell with a happy ending. Watch below! Here's the new red band trailer for Steven Brill's Walk of Shame, originally from Us Magazine: Walk of Shame is written and directed by Steven Brill (Mr. Deeds, Drillbit Taylor, Without a Paddle). Elizabeth Banks (The Hunger Games franchise, Pitch Perfect) stars...

They’ve always been critical of the celebrity photography industry, and Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard went toe-to-toe with two representatives from the paparazzi realm.

During a debate on “Access Hollywood,” the “Veronica Mars” starlet and her “Without a Paddle” husband faced off against Steve Ginsburg and Christian Zimmerman from Akm/Gsi and things got pretty heated.

Bell described a common scenario during which she gets surrounded by 10 photographers at night at Lax while carrying her daughter Lincoln, calling it “terrifying.”

Shepard chimed in, “If you don’t have an ethical issue with that, then I don’t think you have ethics.”

From the other side, Zimmerman called Kristen’s term “pedorazzi” (photographers who snap shots of celebrity kids without authorization) “hysterical.”

And Ginsburg tried to be fair to both sides, noting “Photographers need to be regulated,” though he wasn’t clear on how those rules would be determined and enforced.

Every adventurous college student is familiar with the walk of shame, to the point where stumbling back to one’s dorm in disheveled clothing after a night on the town is considered a rite of passage by many. However, most one night stands don’t result in as much trouble as Elizabeth Banks’s does, in the appropriately titled Walk of Shame.

The first trailer for the film, which you can check out below, was released today and it gives us a peek at her truly disastrous morning after:

Banks plays aspiring reporter Meghan Miles (Banks), who encounters many obstacles as she attempts to make the trek from the home of a random hook-up (James Marsden) through downtown L.A. to get to the most important job interview of her career.

It’s nice to see Banks taking on a leading role for the first time in what feels like a long while.

While Elizabeth Banks has mostly been relegated to meaty supporting roles in films like People Like Us, The Hunger Games, The Next Three Days and Role Models, this time she's taking the lead on the comedy Walk of Shame. It's a classic race against time as Banks plays a local news reporter who has the sudden opportunity to become a network news anchor. The only problem is after her car is towed following a one night stand (with James Marsden), she has no phone, ID or money, and finds herself stranded and desperate to make it to the interview. This trailer reminds me of that movie Trojan War from 1997 with "Boy Meets World" star Will Friedle looking everywhere for a condom. And that's not a compliment. Watch! Here's the first trailer for Steven Brill's Walk of Shame, originally from Yahoo: Walk of Shame is written and directed by Steven Brill (Mr. Deeds,...

He made audiences laugh as part of the cast of “In Living Color,” and sadly Jay Legget has died at age 50.

The Wisconsin-born actor/comedian was hunting deer on Saturday (November 23) when he collapsed in the woods.

And while the final death report is still being processed, the Lincoln County, Wisconsin coroner told press Leggett’s demise is thought to be heart-related.

In addition to “In Living Color,” Jay also appeared in “Ally McBeal,” “NYPD Blue,” “Without a Paddle,” and “Employee of the Month.”...

Jay Leggett, a comic actor who appeared on shows including In Living Color but who always returned to the woods of his native Wisconsin, died Saturday after collapsing on a deer hunt. He was 50.

His death was believed to be heart related, but the coroner in Lincoln County, Wis., said Monday that a final cause of death is still pending, reports the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

Leggett died at a family cabin in Tomahawk, Wis., where he grew up, after returning from a deer stand on an all-terrain vehicle.

He’s a man madly in love, and Dax Shepard couldn’t shut up about his beautiful wife Kristen Bell while chatting with Jimmy Kimmel last night (October 28).

The “Without a Paddle” star declared that his Beverly Hills County Clerk’s Office nuptials on October 17th made him the “luckiest man in America.”

Shepard explained, "It was just Kristen and I at this lonely courthouse so they brought us this cake afterwards."

Apparently the cake had “The World’s Worst Wedding” written on it- “How many people can say they threw 'The World's Worst Wedding?'" asked Dax.

Of his experience at Kimmel’s own wedding over the summer, Shepard stated, "There were helicopters overhead. It felt like an episode of M*A*S*H," he recalled of Kimmel's big day. Not that I was counting your money, but I was counting your money at this thing. It was flying out the windows.

I don’t often bring up Matthew Lillard’s part in The Bridge’s overarching storyline beyond whatever small part he might have gotten up to in the latest episode. This isn’t because I dislike Lillard or his portrayal of Daniel Frye – far from it. Rather, his role in Tate’s plans has seemed so small in comparison to more pressing matters that I don’t usually feel compelled to mention him aside from in passing. But “Old Friends” has forced my hand; I can no longer ignore Lillard’s performance. In the past, I’ve never known Lillard to be much of an actor. My exposure to him was limited to such light-hearted affairs as Scooby-Doo and Without a Paddle. I saw him in the terrifically heart-wrenching The Descendants, where he was far less used for comedy, but his part was so small he barely made a mark on me.

It’s always nice to be recognized as the sexiest anything, but Dax Shepard had to turn down PETA’s Sexiest Male Vegetarian of the Year Award this week.

The “Without a Paddle” stud was grateful for the gesture, but he explained that he’s actually eating meat again so the title wouldn’t be accurate.

Dax tweeted, “I’m really flattered to be named ‘Sexiest Vegetarian’ with @IMKristenBell, but sadly I can’t accept in good conscience because I eat chicken.”

He continued, “I was vegan for a year, but that ended 6 months ago. I aspire to be more like @IMKristenBell , but I’m not there yet.”...
