Celebrity Status – New Bond, New Movies, A Memorial And A Breakup
For Friday, March 22nd:
If Aaron Taylor-Johnson is out as James Bond, who should be the next 007? Names being tossed around include Richard Madden from The Bodyguard, Matt Smith who has been Dr. Who and a young Prince Philip on The Crown… Tom Hiddleston, Taron Egerton, Tom Cruise?? Maybe not. Let’s just ask Idris Elba and be done with it!
A memorial concert was held this week at Carnegie Hall in memory of Sinead O’Connor and fellow Irish singer, Shane MacGowan of the Pogues, who both died last year. Among the final numbers was an emotional rendition of “Nothing Compares 2 U,” performed by Sinead’s 28-year-old daughter, ROW-sheen Waters.
In theaters, Paul Rudd and the rest of the demon-dueling team are back for ‘Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire.’ The Spengler family heads back to New York City to join forces with the original Ghostbusters.
Also in theatres, Sydney Sweeney stars in the psychological horror ‘Immaculate’… and the documentary ‘William Shatner: You Can Call Me Bill’…
Plus, on Netflix…Oscar-winner Regina King stars in ‘Shirley’ as the first Black U.S. congresswoman… And in ‘Dream Scenario’ on Paramount+, a family man played by Nicolas Cage, suddenly starts showing up in millions of people’s dreams.
In other headlines, Megan Fox confirmed that she and Machine Gun Kelly are no longer engaged and are said to be “living separately.”
And did Travis Kelce just toss out some engagement and baby hints on the podcast with his brother?? Dude, do NOT mess with The Swifti-verse!
