[ad_1] Ever since Dolly Parton’s passing, I’ve been reading stories shared about her, and each time I’m instantly emotional. But while I adore everything celebrities have posted to honor her memory, finding stories from her autobiography feel extra special, such as ones from her iconic films. Like the time Parton didn’t mince words after Steel Magnolias' director Herbert Ross said she “couldn’t act.” One of many reasons I adored the
[ad_1] When the Michael movie released earlier this year, it broke box office records, eventually becoming the first musical biopic to gross $1 billion. And it subsequently turned Jaafar Jackson into a household name. Critics and audiences agreed that the now 30-year-old was uncanny in his portrayal of his famous uncle, Michael Jackson. Jaafar displayed the same seemingly effortless onstage swagger and performing skills as the king of pop, so
[ad_1] There are a lot of writers here at CinemaBlend who love theme parks. I’m generally not one of those writers, but I get it. What I am is a writer who loves great documentaries and true crime. Stolen Kingdom, a documentary that I definitely won’t be able to watch with my Disney+ subscription, looks like it’s a great example of both. It’s about urban explorers and, frankly, thieves who
[ad_1] One of the best elements of the Harry Potter movies is easily the chemistry amongst the members of the cast. Throughout the series, viewers see how Harry’s friendship with Ron and Hermione helps him through hard times. But, at the same time, those films also symbolize the different chapters of Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint. The trio apparently became so friendy with each other that while filming
[ad_1] Dune: Part Three is months away from its release on the 2026 movie schedule, and the hype for Denis Villeneuve's threequel is getting very real. Something that has fans particularly excited is the return of Jason Momoa, who played Duncan Idaho in the first movie. Momoa has since shared some thoughts on returning to the franchise, and he even spoke about what it was like filming in the desert.
[ad_1] Zack Snyder is not a director who deals freely in withstrained minimalism, and may have never even thought about those two words close together like that. (Who else could have given us a nearly four-hour Justice League revision?) After helming three movies for Netflix, the filmmaker went to work on a passion project, the drama-filled action thriller The Last Photograph, which now has its first 3-minute trailer that gives
[ad_1] Johnny Depp's work in Tim Burton movies is legendary, as is his tenure as Jack Sparrow in the Pirates of the Caribbean films (which are streaming with a Disney+ subscription). But in recent years the acclaimed character actor has become synonymous with his relationship with Amber Heard, and their messy divorce proceedings. Since then he's largely stepped away from the limelight, but his Hollywood returning is coming as the
[ad_1] Robert Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne survived a lot during The Batman. He was shot, nearly blown up and electrocuted while trying to save Gotham from flooding. Apparently, Matt Reeves looked at all that punishment and decided Bruce still had a few hit points left, because new footage from the set of the upcoming The Batman: Part II appears to show Pattinson’s Bruce in very rough shape. That’s right, we have
[ad_1] The comic book genre has been thriving for years now, thanks to various shared universes occupying the big screen. Folks who watched the DC movies in order will recall that Gal Gadot played Wonder Woman for years, with her DCEU appearances steaming with a HBO Max subscription. And the Fast and Furious actress recently spoke about ending her tenure as Diana Prince, and the way that her co-stars like
[ad_1] Susan Egan has been spending a bit of her 2026 movie calendar continuing her campaign for Zendaya to play Megara in Disney’s live-action Hercules. Apparently, nobody from Zendaya’s household has asked her to stop yet, so the original voice of Meg is keeping the campaign alive. She can’t stop, won’t stop, and honestly I’m here for it.Egan doubled down while speaking with People at the 2026 Disney Legends Awards
