    New 'The Batman' Leaked Video See Catwoman in Action

    by

    Warner Bros. Pictures

    Reportedly part of an upcoming Catwoman documentary, the footage also features Zoe Kravitz describing her iteration of the anti-hero in the Matt Reeves-directed movie.

    May 6, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    Warner Bros. Pictures and DC Films have not released another official sneak-peek of “The Batman”, but a new look at the movie has landed online. A featurette centering on Selina Kyle a.k.a. Catwoman has made its way around the Internet, giving a look at Zoe Kravitz’s iteration of the anti-hero.

    In the scenes from the upcoming movie, Catwoman is seen in action. She suits up in her black leather suit complete with her mask on while seemingly trying to break into a vault. In another moment, she’s crouching on the floor while looking alert, while another scene briefly shows her in a duel with Batman.

    The video also features commentaries from the star and the crew about the character. “The villains are often some of the most, if not the most exciting part of the movies,” director Matt Reeves says of what to expect when watching the character in the movie.

    He goes on explaining, “I mean, the rogues gallery is incredible, and what I wanted to do was I wanted to see a Batman that wasn’t an origin tale, but was sort of in his early days, but that meant that a lot of the characters that are the rogues gallery of characters, are in their origins in a way. So we have a Selina Kyle who’s not yet Catwoman.”

    Kravitz explains the nature of her character, “Selina can take care of herself. She really wants to fight for those that don’t have someone else to fight for them. I think that is where Batman and she really connect.”

    Producer Dylan Clark echoes the actress’ claims as he weighs in, “What’s really interesting about Selina Kyle is that she represents the savior for the ill-treated, the forgotten, the people that haven’t had anybody looking out for them. She’s also very complicated, you don’t quite know exactly where her loyalty or allegiance lies.”

    The leaked footage is reportedly taken from a documentary on iTunes called “Catwoman: The Feline Femme Fatale” that’s bundled with any of the four original Batman films.

    “The Batman” stars Robert Pattinson in the lead role, with Paul Dano as Riddler, Jeffrey Wright as James Gordon, John Turturro as Carmine Falcone, Peter Sarsgaard as Gil Colson, Andy Serkis as Alfred Pennyworth and Colin Farrell as Penguin. Filming wrapped in March and the movie is slated to arrive on March 4, 2022.

      WB 'Committed' to Hiring Black Director and Black Actor for New Superman Movie

      by

      DC Comics

      The upcoming Man of Steel project is said to be standalone like Matt Reeves’ ‘The Batman’ and Todd Phillips’ ‘Joker’, with a possibility of being a period piece.

      May 6, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      A black Superman is apparently also on the brain of Warner Bros. execs. Amid social media’s chatters that tout Michael B. Jordan as the next incarnation of the superhero, the studio is reportedly considering to feature a black Man of Steel in the new movie.

      According to The Hollywood Reporter, WB is currently looking for a black actor to portray the titular character in its next Superman movie. No name is being mentioned as a possible candidate to take on the role, but the star could be a relative unknown.

      Additionally, sources tell the site that “Warners and DC are committed to hiring a black director to tackle what will be the first cinematic incarnation of Superman featuring a black actor.” With that in mind, one source notes that it would be “tone deaf” to put J.J. Abrams, who is also attached to produce, as the helmer.

      Steven Caple Jr. (“Creed II”), J.D. Dillard (“Sleight”, “Sweetheart”), Regina King (“One Night in Miami…”) and Shaka King (“Judas and the Black Messiah”) are allegedly among potential candidates to direct the movie. Some of them have reportedly met with the studio, while Marvel is said to be vying for same names on the list for its “Blade” movie.

      The report further states that the new Superman movie will likely be standalone, much like Matt Reeves’ “The Batman” and Todd Phillips’ “Joker”. Thus, a period piece with a 20th century setting is said to be under consideration to separate it from other DC films.

      Ta-Nehisi Coates is currently penning the script and isn’t expected to deliver his script until mid-December. He is reportedly “crafting a Kal-El in the vein of the original Superman comics and will have the protagonist hail from Krypton and come to Earth.”

      Abrams and Coates have previously spoken up on being tapped to revamp the Superman franchise. “There is a new, powerful and moving Superman story yet to be told. We couldn’t be more thrilled to be working with the brilliant Mr. Coates to help bring that story to the big screen, and we’re beyond thankful to the team at Warner Bros. for the opportunity,” the “Lost” co-creator said in February.

      Coates added, “To be invited into the DC Extended Universe by Warner Bros., DC Films and Bad Robot is an honor. I look forward to meaningfully adding to the legacy of America’s most iconic mythic hero.”

      Amy Adams and Jake Gyllenhaal Team Up for True-Story Movie 'Finding the Mother Tree'

      by

      WENN

      The ‘American Hustle’ actress and the ‘Brokeback Mountain’ actor are joining forces to develop a new feature film about real-life scientist Suzanne Simard.

      May 6, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Amy Adams is joining forces with Jake Gyllenhaal to turn the new memoir of world-famous scientist and ecologist Suzanne Simard into a movie.

      “American Hustle” star Adams will also take on the lead role as Simard in “Finding the Mother Tree”, which the actress will produce for her Bond Group Entertainment company, alongside Gyllenhaal and Riva Marker for his Nine Stories firm.

      In the book, published on Tuesday (04May21), Simard shares her story as a former logger and enthusiastic scientist, who first discovered how trees evolved over the years to communicate underground through a complex web of fungi.

      Her findings were initially dismissed by her peers, but have since been backed up by a wealth of research and data, and have even inspired the work of stars like director James Cameron, who based his Tree of Souls in “Avatar” on her research, reports Deadline.

        See also…

      In a statement, Gyllenhaal and Marker write, “Finding the Mother Tree is a rare and moving book – part charming memoir, part crash course in forest ecology. And yet, it manages to be about the things that matter most: the ways we care for each other, fail each other and listen to each other.”

      “After the last year and a half, its lessons about motherhood, connection and the natural world are more timely than ever, and we are thrilled to partner with Amy, Stacy (O’Neil) and their company, and Suzanne Simard to adapt this majestic story to film.”

      “Suzanne’s novel has been an inspiration,” add Adams and O’Neil. “Creatively, it excited us with a narrative about the awe-invoking power of nature and the compelling parallels in Suzanne’s personal life. It forever transformed our views of the world and the interconnectivity of our environment.”

      “Finding the Mother Tree is not only a deeply beautiful memoir about one woman’s impactful life, it’s also a call to action to protect, understand and connect with the natural world. We’re thrilled to partner with Jake & Riva to bring Suzanne’s important life story to screen and expand the reach of her groundbreaking work.”

      A production start date has yet to be set.

      Pete Davidson Gets His Tattoos Removed to Win More Movie Roles

      by

      WENN

      The ‘Saturday Night Live’ member decides to ‘burn off’ his body inks because he’s worried they would keep him from landing the onscreen roles that he wanted.

      May 6, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Pete Davidson is “burning off” his tattoos in an effort to win more film roles.

      The funnyman fears his skin art is hampering his career after landing roles in “The King of Staten Island” and “The Suicide Squad”, and he’s sick of spending hours in makeup every day getting his ink covered up.

      “I honestly never thought that I would get the opportunity to act and I love it a lot,” he said during an appearance on “Late Night With Seth Meyers”. “You have to get there three hours earlier to cover all your tattoos, because for some reason, people in movies, they don’t have them that much.”

        See also…

      But Pete admitted the process of getting his ink removed is worse than the pain that comes with the tattoo itself.

      “Burning them (tattoos) off is worse than getting them, because not only are they, like, burning off your skin, but you’re wearing these big goggles, right? So you can’t see anything and the doctor’s in there with you.

      “Before he goes to laser each tattoo, you have to hear him announce what the tattoo is to make sure if you want to keep it or not. So I’ll just be sitting there all high off of the (nitrous oxide)… and then all of a sudden I’ll just hear, ‘Are we keeping the Stewie Griffin smoking a blunt?’ And then I have to sit there and be like, ‘No, Dr. G.’ ”

      WENN/Nicky Nelson

      Joining the May the 4th celebration, the daughter of late Carrie Fisher puts out two photos of son Kingston rocking the onesie and a brown knitted hat featuring Leia’s signature double bun hairdo.

      May 5, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Actress Billie Lourd has dressed her baby boy up as her late mother Carrie Fisher’s iconic Princess Leia character to celebrate “Star Wars” day.

      As fans around the world marked the unofficial franchise holiday on Tuesday, May 4, the “Scream Queens” star shared two Instagram snaps of her son Kingston taking part in the festivities by wearing a onesie featuring a Leia print, and rocking a brown knitted hat styled in the character’s signature double bun hairdo as they watched one of the original “Star Wars” films.

        See also…

      This was not the first time Lourd paid homage to her late mother’s connection to the “Star Wars” franchise. In early February, the 28-year-old actress revealed during an Instagram Q+A session with fans that her son’s nursery features a nod to the sci-fi saga.

      When asked if she will encourage her son to be a “Star Wars geek,” the “Booksmart” actress shared a photo of his room’s light switch that is labeled “Light Side” and “Dark Side” in the iconic “Star Wars” font. Along with the photo, she noted, “Duhhh. This is the light switch in his room.”

      Fisher died in December 2016 at the age of 60. Little Kingston is Lourd’s first child with her fiance Austen Rydell. The tot was born in September 2020. Months after giving birth, Lourd stressed that Kingston was not a “quarantine baby.”

      Appearing on her stepfather Bruce Bozzi’s SiriusXM show “Quarantined With Bruce” in January, Lourd made it clear, “He’s not technically a quarantine baby. And I want to make that known because a lot of people are having trendy quarantine babies.” She added, “Kingston was conceived before quarantine. He’s technically just a Caribbean baby.”

      Andrew Garfield Says Rumors About Him Returning to 'Spider-Man: No Way Home' Is 'F**king Hilarious'

      by

      WENN/Lia Toby

      Setting the record straight about whether he will appear in the next ‘Spider-Man’ movie, the former Spidey depicter claims that he ‘did not get a call’ from the producers.

      May 5, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Andrew Garfield has made it clear that he won’t appear in “Spider-Man: No Way Home”, at least, not for now. Responding to speculations suggesting him and fellow former Spidey Tobey Maguire might be suiting up alongside Tom Holland in the upcoming movie, the “Under the Silver Lake” actor laughed off the rumors, saying “it’s f**king hilarious.”

      The 37-year-old star set the record straight when speaking to Josh Horowitz on his “Happy Sad Confused” podcast. “It’s f**king hilarious to me,” he stated. “Because I do have this Twitter account, and I see how often Spider-Man is trending. It’s people freaking out about a thing, and I’m just like, guys. Guys. I wish I could just be able to speak to everyone and say, ‘I recommend that you chill.’ ”

      Andrew went on to stress that many people did not believe him. He argued, “I feel like I’m in a game of f**king Werewolf, where I say ‘I’m not the werewolf, I promise you I am not.’ And everyone is like, ‘You’re the f**king werewolf, it’s him!’ ”

        See also…

      “I did not get a call,” the ex-boyfriend of Emma Stone continued. “I would’ve gotten a call by now. That’s what I’ll say. I don’t want to rule anything out. Maybe they want to call me. Maybe they want to call me and say, ‘Hey, people want this.’ ”

      Rumors about Andrew and Tobey’s potential appearances in “Spider-Man: No Way Home” emerged months prior. Tom, meanwhile, already addressed the long-running speculation in February. “Beats me, I don’t know. If they are, they haven’t told me yet…,” he joked in an interview for Variety’s Awards Circuit Podcast. “That would be something that Marvel would do. I watch the film and be like ‘So that’s who that tennis ball was!’ ”

      Andrew originally portrayed Peter Parker or Spidey in 2012’s “The Amazing Spider-Man” and reprised his role in 2014’s “The Amazing Spider-Man 2”. Since then, Tom has taken over the superhero character.

      Ted Cruz Roasted for His Jason Bourne-Standard in Criticizing CIA's Inclusive Recruitment Ad

      by

      Instagram/Universal Pictures

      The Texas senator becomes the subject of mockery after commenting on the agency’s ad by claiming that CIA agents have ‘come a long way from’ Matt Damon’s fictional character.

      May 4, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Ted Cruz has become the butt of the joke after slamming CIA’s recruitment ad. The Texas senator attempted to criticize the agency’s message with the ad by comparing its agents to Jason Bourne, but it has since backfired.

      The ad in question celebrates diversity and inclusivity as it highlights a female cisgender agent of color. In the said ad that Cruz reposted on Twitter, the CIA agent describes herself as saying, “I am a woman of color. I am a cisgender millennial. I have been diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder. I am intersectional.”

      Unimpressed Cruz then weighed in on it, writing along with the video, “If you’re a Chinese communist, or an Iranian Mullah, or Kim Jong Un…would this scare you?” He added, “We’ve come a long way from Jason Bourne.”

      Ted Cruz criticized CIA’s recruitment ad.

      It didn’t take long for other Twitter users to mock the Republican politician over his comment on the ad, pointing out that Jason Bourne is a fictional character. “Jason Bourne is a fictional character, Ted. He doesn’t scare the boogeymen, and neither did you,” one person reacted to Cruz’s post.

      Another asked the senator, “You know jason bourne wasn’t real right?” A third one similarly remarked, “You know Jason Bourne is fictional, right? The CIA has to recruit real people. Resign.” Someone else reminded him, “Senator, Jason Bourne is a fictional character. The CIA has real people in it who do real work on behalf of our nation. Celebrate the reality of those who serve.”

      “If a secret agent scares the people they are trying to spy on, isn’t that counterproductive, Senator?” one person argued, before adding, “(Jason Bourne is fiction, btw.)” Another added, “Jason Bourne ? We’ve had enough fiction from the Republican Party.”

      This isn’t the first time Cruz makes a Jason Bourne reference when criticizing law enforcement agency. Back in 2019, he blasted the FBI’s and the Department of Justice’s handling of the Trump-Russia investigation by comparing it to Matt Damon’s character in the “Bourne” movie series. “What was going on here — this wasn’t Jason Bourne, this was Beavis and Butt-Head,” he said during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.

      See Mark Wahlberg's Shocking Transformation After Gaining 20 Lbs. in 3 Weeks for 'Father Stu' Role

      by

      Instagram

      The ‘Transformers: The Last Knight’ actor shares a before and after picture to compare his previously ripped physique to his now fuller figure after vowing to indulge in his favorite food.

      May 4, 2021

      AceShowbiz –
      Mark Wahlberg, who is known for his strict diet, has lost the result of all his gym sessions. The actor has just uncovered his shocking transformation after intentionally gaining weight for his next movie role in “Father Stu”.

      Taking to his Instagram page on Monday, May 3, the 49-year-old shared a before and after picture to compare his previously ripped physique to his now fuller figure after gaining 20 lbs. in just three weeks, all in the name of acting. In the left snap, he grinned as he showed off his chiseled abs and chest, while on the right side, he was laying in bed with a rounder belly.

      “From left photo 3 weeks ago to this, now,” he captioned the post, which also included a full shot of him flexing his muscles in the old photo. Spilling the secret to his dramatic weight gain, the “Pain and Gain” star credited his private chef Lawrence Duran. “Thanks to @chef_lawrence_d cooking,” he added in the caption.

      In “Father Stu”, Wahlberg will be playing a boxer-turned-priest, Father Stuart Long. Back in April, he told Jimmy Kimmel that the role required him to get shredded first for the boxing scenes and then gain weight. “After we do the boxing scenes, I get to put on as much weight as possible over the course of the film, so I’m challenging myself to put on 30 pounds in the next six weeks,” he said on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”.

      “The Fighter” actor went on to reveal his plans to gain weight, saying that he would be eating “lots of burgers and lots of buns” to pile on the pounds. While movie bosses have recruited a “very smart” nutritional expert to help him make the transformation as healthily as possible, Wahlberg wanted to have a little fun with the mission.

      “They want me to do it as healthy as possible and I’m like, ‘Dude, I’ve been on such a regimen for so long, I just want to eat everything in sight,’ ” he shared. “I want to go to bakeries, I want to go to Denny’s (diner), I want to get pancakes, I want to get everything I can possibly get my hands on!”

      “(I’ll hopefully start) with a 20-piece chicken nugget and 20-piece hot wings from Kentucky Fried Chicken with a six-pack of beer,” he added, quipping, “Why not start with a bang? I might need a porta-potty too, but you know what, I’m ready to go.”

      Wahlberg’s weight gain journey is far from being over as he revealed on May 1 that he was “up about 20” pounds and was planning on “going up another 20.”
