Arnold Schwarzenegger's son already follows in his dad's footsteps when it comes to bodybuilding ... but now he's mimicking his pops in Hollywood. Sources close to Joseph Baena tell TMZ ... on the heels of landing his first big acting gig earlier this year -- in the John Malkovich sci-fi flick, "The Chariot" -- he's hired an agent, Henry Penzi, and is booking more and more roles. We're told Joseph just finished shooting an independent film called "Bully High" -- that's where these photos are from -- where he plays the s...

NXT returned last night (May 18) from the Capitol Wrestling Center (CWC) in Orlando, Florida. You can find the results at the live blog here. Bronson Reed gets Johnny Gargano in a cage! After a cowardly sneak attack by Austin Theory and Johnny Gargano on NXT last week, Bronson Reed vowed that Johnny Gargano was “a dead man” walking. I don’t think that was another Army of the Dead tie in though. Reed had already earned a North American title shot by beating Theory, so The Way were hoping he’d be too injured to take it this week. Instead they got the exact opposite as William Regal booked a steel cage match for NXT! This match was given a lot of time and deserved every bit of it including a nice long overrun. Austin Theory tried to run interference on the outside, climbing t...

27-year-old Ben Platt as the 17-year-old Evan HansenScreenshot: Universal Pictures Dear Evan Hansen, the smash Broadway musical that was unavoidable in New York City for the last half-decade or so, is finally coming to the big screen. With a cast of heavy-hitters, including Julianne Moore, Amy Adams, and Kaitlyn Dever, the new trailer shows off director Stephen Chbosky’s approach to adapting the hit play, which is to say he’s Pen15-ing it. Much like the Hulu series in which comedians in their 30s play teenage versions of their younger selves, Dear Evan Hansen features a lead in his late-20s, Ben Platt, 27, reprising his role as the titular 17-year-old. And, boy, howdy, does it look weird. Evan Hansen follows, um, Evan Hansen as he deals with another teen’s suicide by writing letters ...

Hollywood premieres are making a comeback. On Wednesday night, Disney staged the world premiere of Cruella at the El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles. The live-action pic, opening in theaters and on Disney+ Premier over Memorial Day weekend, stars Emma Stone as a young Cruella de Vil, the villain from the iconic 101 Dalmatians franchise. While the event was smaller in scope than normal Disney bashes because of social distancing and other safety protocols — no press was invited inside, for example — it marked the first major studio in-theater premiere since the COVID-19 crisis commenced and had a proper red carpet. Walking the carpet was Stone, co-star Kirby Howell-Baptiste and director Craig Gillespie, among other talent from the family-friendly film. A cadre ...
