Anyone who skipped CinemaCon this year out of fear of the pandemic in Las Vegas missed a spitfire of a luncheon chat this afternoon. Not only was Patty Jenkins smashing the theatrical day & date model, and wagging a finger at exhibition over the decline in moviegoing experience, but also Paramount Domestic Distribution Boss Chris Aronson put Marcus Theatres CEO & President Rolando Rodriguez in check over exhibitors’ ticket pricing. When, natch, asked about the hindsight of Wonder Woman 1984 going theatrical day-and-date on HBO Max, Jenkins exclaimed, “It was the best choice in a bunch of bad choices at the moment” and a “heartbreaking experience.” Back in December, Warner Bros. sent its entire 2021 theatrical release slate day-and-date with HBO Max due to their outlook of...

Scott Disick and Kourtney Kardashian aren’t afraid to let their kids experiment with their hair. On Thursday, Kourt showed off 9-year-old daughter Penelope Disick’s new look: long, fiery red locks. The mom of three captioned her photo of Penelope, whose nickname is Poosh, with a slew of red emojis. She also posted a picture on her Instagram Story of the dye process, though Kardashian did not reveal if the bright cherry color is permanent or temporary. In the comments, some compared the young fashionista to Ariel from “The Little Mermaid” — as well as to a younger version of her aunt Kylie Jenner, who’s known for her brightly colored wigs. Perhaps Penelope was inspired to switch up her strands after seeing her mom’s dramatic new bob, which the w...

BTS have left one of their truths untold until now. The K-pop super group recently revealed that if it weren’t for COVID-19, they would’ve stuck (at least mostly) to their native tongue.  In an interview for a new Billboard cover story, members of the fanatically beloved boy band opened up about their discomfort with singing songs fully in English. “There was no alternative,” 28-year-old Jin told Billboard of releasing the group’s first English language song “Dynamite” — which became the group’s first Billboard No. 1 hit — in summer 2020, and then following it with two more English songs (“Butter” and “Permission to Dance” which both also hit the No. 1 slot) this year.  While the charts and their fans ate up the tracks, the seven-member boy band were not ...

Disney Plus subscribers will finally be able to watch the Queen of Mean on the service at no additional cost beginning Friday. The live-action origin story of Disney’s notorious Cruella de Vil will hit the service tomorrow after debuting simultaneously in theaters and on Disney’s Premier Access platform on May 28th. Premier Access releases typically run viewers an additional $30 on top of their monthly or yearly subscription costs to be able to access the film early. But Cruella will officially join the Disney Plus library beginning this week. Emma Stone stars alongside a pack of sometimes real, sometimes CGI dogs in a spin on Disney’s animated One Hundred and One Dalmatians. This one, though, is set in 1970s London and sees Stone take on fashion icon Baroness von Hellman. The plo...
