Venice Film Festival to Go on as Scheduled

The Venice Film Festival is set to go ahead as scheduled from September 2-12. The region’s governor Luca Zaia said the world’s longest-running film festival marks the first major film industry event that hasn’t been postponed or canceled due to the coronavirus. Earlier this month, Italy set out plans for restrictions to be lifted on travel and businesses including cinemas. “We know that it would be simply impossible to plan a festival without knowing if you all are willing to use the Festival to give a new start and a strong sign for keeping cinema alive, even in these difficult times,” wrote Venice’s artistic director Alberto Barbera. Zaia was quoted by local media as saying that there will be fewer films at the 77th edition due to global productions being halted. The lineup is usually announced in late July and Cate Blanchett is the president of the jury this year. Sunday would have marked the end of the 2020 Cannes Film Festival and organizers are hopeful that it will be live on

Can Your Favorite Celebrities Get Out of the “Celebrity Escape Room?”

Image
Who doesn’t love escape rooms? This form of torture has been turned into a fun night out and NBC’s special Celebrity Escape Room , which was part of Red Nose Day 2020, shows Ben Stiller, Lisa Kudrow, Courteney Cox, and Adam Scott racing against the clock to try and solve puzzles in a room. The twist is that Jack Black serves as the “Game Master” tricking the participants throughout the game. During the competition, Stiller, Kudrow, Cox, and Scott try to solve the puzzles while Black manipulates a set of buzzers and they can ask him only three clues. When they finally figure it out, there are more surprises waiting for them and you can see Cox walking through a tiny, dark room by herself—reminiscent of her horror days in Scream . In a sneak peek Scott says, “The game master is Jack Black and he is diabolical,” Scott says. “It’s a battle of wits,” Black explains. “You against the room.” Who’s the weakest link in this A-list team? “That’s me,” Kudrow volunteers. “No, you’re so smart,

Snyder announced on Wednesday during a live Q&A following a virtual screening of his Henry Cavill-led Superman film Man of Steel that his cut of the DC film Justice League will be released on HBO Max in 2021.

“Batwoman” Lead Ruby Rose Leaves Series Ahead of Season 2

The CW will have to recast a new lead for Batwoman after Ruby Rose has chosen to exit the series ahead of the second season. It’s unclear why Rose decided to leave the show and in a statement, she said “I have made the very difficult decision to not return to Batwoman next season. This was not a decision I made lightly as I have the utmost respect for the cast, crew, and everyone involved with the show in both Vancouver and in Los Angeles.” Rose’s groundbreaking role was the first gay lead character, male or female, of a live-action superhero series. The series is interested in casting another LGBTQ actress as the lead role. In September, Rose sustained an injury while doing a stunt on the set of Season 1 which caused her to have emergency surgery for two herniated discs. A source told Variety that her decision to leave “had nothing to do with her health or injury.” The CW renewed Batwoman for the 2020-2021 season in January.

The video is slightly reminiscent of Elton John’s 1983 video for “I’m Still Standing,” which was also set on a beach and Styles is seen wearing blue-tinted sunglasses which are a classic for Elton John. The single debuted on Saturday Night Live back in November and it’s his fourth single from his second full-length album, The Fine Line which has sold 1.2 million units since it’s release in December.
