    Bradley Cooper In Talks for Bee Gees Biopic

    WENN

    The ‘A Star Is Born’ actor is expected to portray one of the legendary Gibb brothers in the upcoming true-story movie revolving around the iconic British band.
    Feb 14, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Bradley Cooper is reportedly in talks to play Bee Gees’ star Barry Gibb in a biopic about the British band.
    According to the Daily Mail’s Baz Bamigboye, the Oscar-winning actor is having “informal discussions” with bosses about portraying the late singer and guitarist in a new movie (“Untitled Bee Gees Biopic”).
    Cooper has already shown off his vocal talents in “A Star Is Born”, which he starred in and directed, and would be required to sing if he took on the gig. However, Bamigboye added that the 45-year-old will “receive help” – presumably from a vocal coach – to reach the Bee Gees’ infamous high notes.
    The film, which doesn’t have a director as yet, is set to follow the Bee Gees – brothers Barry, Robin Gibb, and Maurice Gibb – as they arrive back in London from Australia, after emigrating Down Under from their original home in the Isle of Man.
    It’s being written by Anthony McCarten, who has enjoyed massive success with films including “Bohemian Rhapsody”, “The Theory of Everything”, and “The Two Popes”.

    'Marriage Boot Camp': Michel'le Shockingly Claims Joseline Hernandez Is Her BF's Type

    WE tv

    That seemingly doesn’t sit well with the ‘Love and Hip Hop: Miami’ star’s boyfriend Balistic Beats, who later looks at Stew and says, ‘Me and you need to have a conversation.’
    Feb 14, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Michel’le and boyfriend Stew are trying to make their relationship work, but it will not be easy if one of them constantly compares themselves to others. Unfortunately, that was Michel’le was doing in the Thursday, February 13 episode of “Marriage Boot Camp: Hip Hop Edition” in which she sent everyone into frenzy with a shocking claim about Joseline Hernandez.
    In the episode, Michel’le confidently revealed that the “Love & Hip Hop: Miami” cast member was more of her boyfriend’s type than she was. Not only others, the claim also surprised Joseline herself.
    That seemingly didn’t sit well with Joseline’s boyfriend Balistic Beats, who later told Stew, “Me and you need to have a conversation.” Stew also confronted his own girlfriend over her allegations in a private confessional. “Why on God’s green Earth would you say something as stupid as Joseline is your type?” she asked Michel’le. “She’s never met any of the women that I’ve dated, so to me, this illusion of a type is a figment of her own imagination.”
    Meanwhile, Dr. Ish and Judge Toler attempted to get the group back under control. Judge Toler looked at Michel’le before saying, “Everybody in here thinks that you are so way off on that.” However, Michel’le insisted that it was because Joseline was a beautiful woman unlike herself. That prompted Judge Toler to tell her, “I rarely say people are wrong, but you got that wrong.”
    That didn’t change Michel’le mind. She said that Stew loved beautiful women and she didn’t think she was belong to the category. Additionally, Stew is younger than her and seemed to be something that added to her insecurities about their relationship as she thought that everyone except her was his type.

    One other said, “Don’t trust [Tamra Judge]. I’m so glad she’s off the show she needs to focus and making her relationship better with her other kids.

    'The Eternals' Reveals Gay Couple, Crew Cry During Kissing Scene

    WENN/Ivan Nikolov/FayesVision

    Actors Brian Tyree Henry and Haaz Sleiman play the first openly gay married couple in Marvel Cinematic Universe and share ‘a beautiful, very moving kiss.’
    Feb 14, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Marvel Studios has confirmed that “The Eternals” will feature its first openly gay superhero and now the said character has been revealed. In a new interview with Logo, Haaz Sleiman says that he plays one half of the gay couple and that his character is “married to the gay superhero Phastos.”
    Phastos is portrayed by “Atlanta” star Brian Tyree Henry. Sleiman says their characters “represent a gay family and have a child.” Not shying away from the gay representation, the upcoming movie will also feature Marvel’s first gay kiss.
    “It’s a beautiful, very moving kiss,” Sleiman, who starred on miniseries “Killing Jesus”, teases about the kissing scene, which he claims brought everyone to tears during the filming. “Everyone cried on set,” he shares, before adding, “For me it’s very important to show how loving and beautiful a queer family can be.”
    Praising his co-star, Sleiman says, “Brian Tyree Henry is such a tremendous actor and brought so much beauty into this part.” He goes on dishing on the significance of their characters, “At one point I saw a child in his [Henry’s] eyes, and I think it’s important for the world to be reminded that we in the queer community we’re all children at one point. We forget that because we’re always depicted as sexual or rebellious. We forget to connect on that human part.”
    Prior to “The Eternals”, “Avengers: Endgame” featured co-director Joe Russo as the MCU’s first openly gay character. Fans, however, criticized the studio because the character was nameless and had a small part in the movie, while the Russo brothers had touted representation in the MCU.
    “The Eternals” is also starring Angelina Jolie as Thena, Richard Madden as Ikaris, Gemma Chan as Sersi, Kumail Nanjiani as Kingo, Salma Hayek as Ajak, Don Lee a.k.a. Ma Dong Seok as Gilgamesh, and Kit Harington as Dane Whitman. Chloe Zhao serves as director. The movie is heading into theaters across the nation on November 6.

    Kandi Burruss Weighs In on NeNe Leakes' Noticeable Absence on 'RHOA'

    Bravo TV

    ‘The Real Housewives of Potomac’ star Monique Samuels previously shared on Twitter that she couldn’t believe the lack of NeNe’s visibility this season, calling it ‘beyond ridiculous.’
    Feb 14, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Fans of NeNe Leakes have been voicing out their opinion on the lack of screentime that NeNe has in the current season 12 of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta”. Now, fellow cast member Kandi Burruss has responded to the outcry, addressing the matter in one of her YouTube videos.
    In the clip, Kandi could be heard saying, “NeNe was not in another episode.. one more time, let me say that correctly. That NeNe was not in yet another episode. what was going on? Bravo? truly original.” She continued, “Why the OG is not on the episode again? What is happening? What are you doing?”
    Kandi, however, revealed that she didn’t know what was happening between NeNe and Bravo. “I don’t know. I mean, clearly we don’t know each other’s business when it comes to contracts,” she explained. “I don’t know what she signed for, I don’t know how many episodes she’s supposed to be in or how much they pay her. I don’t know any of that.”
    “This is something that they had already understood going into the season,” she continued. “All I could tell you is we didn’t understand. I didn’t know that. I don’t know if any of the other girls on the show knew that.”

    Fans noticed NeNe was not in many episodes of the show so far. “Their definitely icing you off the show slowly but surely. no matter what you’ll always be the HBIC,” one fan wrote to NeNe, who was also absent in the season premiere.
    “The Real Housewives of Potomac” star Monique Samuels previously shared that she couldn’t believe the lack of NeNe’s visibility this season. AOL Entertainment managing editor Gibson Johns asked on Twitter, “Serious question: Has there ever been a full-time Housewife who has been featured *less* during a season than NeNe has been on this season of #RHOA? It’s becoming absurd how many full episodes she’s missing from entirely.” Monique replied to the tweet, “It’s getting beyond ridiculous.”

Reeves has shared his vision for the new Batman movie, saying, “It’s more Batman in his detective mode than we’ve seen in the films.” He added, “I’d love this to be one where when we go on that journey of tracking down the criminals and trying to solve a crime, it’s going to allow his character to have an arc so that he can go through a transformation.”
    Joining the cast are Colin Farrell as the Penguin, Zoe Kravitz as Catwoman, Paul Dano as Batman’s villain The Riddler, Jeffrey Wright who is said to play James Gordon, and Peter Sarsgaard who is cast in a mystery role. There has been a speculation that Sarsgaard might be portraying District Attorney Harvey Dent, who becomes the villain Two-Face.
    The film is slated to open in theaters nationwide on June 25, 2021.
