From why we loved The Help so much to Leonardo DiCaprio‘s desperate quest for a statuette, the Oscars edition of “If Movie Posters Told the Truth” is spot-on. More »
We’re back with round two of photos from the Great Gatsby set (see round one here), and Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire and Carey Mulligan are all dressed up and strutting about what I assume is Gatsby’s fancy estate. My big takeaway from this is that I’d totally kill to have Carey-as-Daisy’s wardrobe. Think that’s a possibility? More »
A whole bunch of retired FBI agents are in a tizzy over J. Edgar Hoover‘s portrayal in the Clint Eastwood-directed, Leonardo DiCaprio-starring biopic J. Edgar. Apparently, they’re cool with the way his secretive file-keeping and shady info gathering techniques were portrayed, but the admittedly fictionalized speculation about his personal life will not stand!

With the re-release of James Cameron‘s Titanic, 15 years after its original release date and rendered in 3-D, we have the rare opportunity of seeing how a studio reevaluates its marketing strategy for a beloved film. For what it’s worth, the 3-D doesn’t really translate in the new trailer. Obviously it’ll show up on the IMAX screen in 2012, but for now it seemed as if this were just the original trailer, but sharper.
How wrong I was. More »

You’ve done it again, Reddit! The forum has been our way of finding out movie secrets from other eagle-eyed viewers, and for the most part, it’s a fun discovery. After all, we weren’t too broken up to discover that Michael Bay reused the same footage from Pearl Harbor for Transformers. But this… this is just cruel. More »

Sad news: Leonardo DiCaprio and Blake Lively have broken up! After only five months, and only a few events we actually saw them together at, their reps confirmed that their summer romance is over. Predictably, they “remain friends.” So let’s recall the many times they were photographed together in some exotic city — Venice, Monte Carlo, NYC — and keep on humming “Summer Lovin’” to ourselves.

Days after Hilary Duff announced her pregnancy, studio Cypress Moon Productions announced they were forced to drop her from the upcoming Bonnie and Clyde remake since they couldn’t postpone the movie til after she gave birth. But apparently if you’re Beyoncé, it’s a whole different situation: Warner Bros. is willing to push Clint Eastwood‘s remake of A Star Is Born back beyond the February 2012 start date. More »
Severus Snape? Alan Rickman. Marty McFly? Michael J. Fox. Vivian Ward? Julia Roberts. We all know and love these characters, and their actors’ portrayals of them were so perfect, it can be hard to imagine anyone else playing them. But guess what? If things had gone a little differently, Alan Rickman might not have landed Snape, Michael J. Fox may not have donned Marty’s orange vest, and Julia Roberts may not have become one of the world’s most well-known prostitutes. That’s right: Each of these characters were originally pitched to different actors, and in some cases, were even recast midway through shooting. What other iconic characters might have ended up being played by totally different actors? Read on to find out! More »
Some of my favorite Internet memes are ones that add the perfect caption to a splendidly awkward photo, which is exactly what “Draw Me Like One of Your French Girls” does. Today Uproxx highlighted this relatively underground meme, which has only about twenty entries on Know Your Meme. You probably recognize the line from Titanic, when Kate Winslet tells Leonardo DiCaprio that she wants him to… well, you get the picture. More »
Blake Lively and Leonardo DiCaprio went on a coffee date! They got cappuccinos! People magazine’s description of the date is so boring that I thought I was reading an old homework assignment. More »
For everyone who’s enjoying Glee stars Darren Criss and Kevin McHale alongside Crushable’s spirit animal Rebecca Black in Katy Perry’s new video Last Friday Night (and that should be everyone), but needs something new, we have just the thing: more celebs popping up in music videos. But music video cameos are far from a new invention – these classic videos feature some of our all-time favorite random appearances. More »
Next to Normal‘s Aaron Tveit introduces the Catch Me If You Can Tonys number, but it’s good that he ultimately deferred to co-star Norbert Leo Butz. While Tveit plays Frank Abagnale, Jr. — Leonardo DiCaprio‘s role in the 2002 film — the true star of this song-and-dance number was Butz.
You might recognize him for originating the role of Fiyero in Wicked, but he left the show in 2004. While some actors cycle in and out of Broadway, it seems that Butz has continued to grow on the stage. Only seven years ago he was playing a typical male lead, yet now he’s clearly showing his age — in the best way. Following Tom Hanks as FBI bank fraud agent Carl Hanratty, Butz is wonderfully nervous and stridently law-abiding. And boy, can he dance! Be sure to check out the video. More »
Child acting is a tenuous thing. It’s difficult to tell when actors are very young whether or not they’ve actually got talent, and sometimes, being exposed to the Hollywood life at an early age can do weird things to a person. But for every one that implodes (I’m looking at you, Lindsay Lohan) or falls into obscurity (Jake Lloyd, much?), there’s also one that manages to make the transition from child to adult actor. It’s not always seamless, and sometimes there are demons to fight; but a lot of them do come out just fine on the other side. Here are 16 of our favorites. More »
Rumor has it new couple Blake Lively and Leonardo DiCaprio took a trip to Disneyland, where we imagine they rode the tea cups and got frisky inside the Haunted Mansion. We’re also pretty sure Blake had no trouble fitting in. Why is that? Because the versatile lady has a habit of channeling Disney princesses! Check it our for yourself. More »
