Renee Zellweger has now won twice at the Academy Awards. Her first victory was for Best Supporting Actress in “Cold Mountain” (2003) and then 16 years later as Best Actress victory for “Judy” (2019). Where does the Judy Garland biopic fall in with the rest of her filmography? Tour through our photo gallery of her greatest films, ranked worst to best.
The Texas-born actress began her career in commercials and bit parts in films like “Dazed and Confused” and “Reality Bites” plus lead roles in less than acclaimed films such as one of the many Texas Chainsaw Massacre films. She managed to turn that career trajectory around and earned three consecutive Oscar nominations in 2001, 2002 and 2003 for “Bridget Jones’ Diary,” “Chicago,” and “Cold Mountain” respectively. She would win the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for that latter Civil War drama.
In retrospect and even before that, it was winning the lead in the film...

Zack Snyder's "Watchmen," as it turns out, could have featured one of the biggest movie stars of all time -- Tom Cruise. The actor behind "Mission: Impossible" and "Top Gun," among many, many other hits, was said to be in the running for a role in the film dating back to several years before it even came out, which Snyder later personally confirmed. But now, the filmmaker has added a pretty interesting layer to the whole thing: Cruise would have starred in the movie, but he wanted to take on the role of Rorschach, which isn't exactly what Snyder had in mind.
Speaking to Josh Horowitz on the "Happy Sad Confused" podcast as part of the promotional tour for his new movie "Rebel Moon -- Part Two: The Scargiver" (which hits Netflix this weekend), Snyder touched on Cruise's potential casting in "Watchmen" all those years ago. The director explained...

The once fairytale romance of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, which started with Cruise jumping on top of a couch during his appearance at The Oprah Winfrey Show, and processing his love for Holmes, came to an in 2012, when the latter filed for divorce. The divorce came as a surprise to many, allegedly including Cruise himself. What was even more heartbreaking to witness, was how the once beloved relationship between a father and daughter started disintegrating in front of all our eyes.

Before his separation and eventual divorce with Katie Holmes, Tom Cruise was a doting father to his daughter Suri Cruise, who has born in 2006. But since going their separate ways, their relationship has dwindled to the extent that Suri, who just turned 18, now refuses to acknowledge her father.

Zendaya has, in just a small handful of years, asserted herself as a true A-list star in Hollywood. So much focus is paid to actors in their 40s (or much older) such as Tom Cruise, one of the many famous people named Chris, or Anne Hathaway. But Zendaya has emerged as one of our new movie stars, thanks to her work in wildly successful franchises such as "Dune" and "Spider-Man." But can her star power help turn "Challengers," an original sports drama centered around tennis, into a hit? That's the big question MGM is asking right now as the movie gets ready to make its way to theaters next weekend.
Hailing from "Call Me By Your Name" director Luca Guadagnino, "Challengers" is eyeing an opening between $7 and $12 million, per Box Office Pro. The only other big release on April 26 is Lionsgate's Christian drama "Unsung Hero." Yes, faith-based movies have...

While Zack Snyder’s films have the director’s visual and narrative stamp all over them, this is also the reason for him being a pretty polarizing figure among viewers. While his work in the DC franchise as well as in films like 300 and Watchmen have earned him a massive fan base, there are also a significant number of viewers who have been severely critical of his cinematic choices.

Tom Cruise is easily one of the biggest Hollywood stars of all time. Even though he has been in the industry for over four decades, he is still sought after by the best directors to star in their projects. The actor himself exerts his influence too, often to bring out the best in him, and his decisions have always paid off.
However, he does not always get his way, as Zack Snyder recently revealed. The director confessed that he wanted the Mission: Impossible actor to play a certain character in one of his films, but Cruise sought a different role.

Rebecca Ferguson decided to leave the 'Mission: Impossible' franchise because her character Ilsa Faust was becoming a "team player".The 40-year-old star's alter ego was killed off in 'Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One' and she felt it was the right time to bow out as Ilsa's "unpredictable" element was being taken away.Rebecca told the UnWrapped podcast: "To speak very clearly – because I know a lot of people are sad about it, I'm sad about it – I had filmed three films. My deal was done. And I love her beyond words. Beyond words. I think she's the most awesome, fantastic character."Ilsa was becoming a team player. And we can all want different things, but for me, Ilsa was rogue. Ilsa was naughty. Ilsa was unpredictable. There was a lot of characters coming in, not leaving enough space for what she had been.

Zack Snyder is all set to release the second part of his space opera magnum opus Rebel Moon. The Netflix film is the follow-up to last year’s Chapter 1 – A Child of Fire. The filmmaker has had a busy few years after helming large-scale blockbusters such as Army of the Dead and Justice League.
While Snyder has worked with many A-listers, he reportedly got a call from the legendary star Tom Cruise early in his career while he had just finished 300. The actor reportedly gave him a surprise call after the film opened big at the box office. Cruise was also reportedly Snyder’s first choice to play Ozymandias in his divisive Watchmen adaptation.

There were a lot of hopes resting on the shoulders of Rise of the Ronin, Team Ninja’s RPG set in 19th-century Japan, but it didn’t turn out to be the authentic Japanese masterpiece that it seemed like before release. After the success that PlayStation enjoyed because of Ghost of Tsushima, it felt like all of the required foundations were laid out for Sony’s next Japanese outing.
Still, it’s not like Rise of the Ronin is a bad game since most of the reviews are generally favorable, but according to reports, the game may not have been the hit that Team Ninja’s parent company, Koei Tecmo, was looking forward to.

There’s no bigger critic than the self.
In a surprising turn of events, the two-time Oscar-winner and heavily influential Hollywood personality Quentin Tarantino has reportedly ditched his in-development project, “The Movie Critic.”
As per The Hollywood Reporter, the film – about which there has been tremendous speculation but few hard facts – had been eyed as the director’s much-ballyhooed “tenth and final” project. Instead, at the moment, Tarantino has decided to put it in the ashcan. THR’s sources say that what began as a profile of a movie reviewer – possibly writing for a pornographic publication in the 1970s, and possibly including different endings to movies of the period like “Rolling Thunder” (as per an interview with Paul Schrader) – had slowly began to morph into a “Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood” sequel or prequel, with Brad Pitt reprising his Oscar-winning supporting role of stuntman Cliff Booth.

Quentin Tarantino has apparently walked away from his planned final film, The Movie Critic. More on the news here.
Here’s some news straight out of the blue this morning: Quentin Tarantino has reportedly walked away from The Movie Critic, and given that the filmmaker’s next movie is supposed to be his last, he likely won’t be returning to it.
Instead, Tarantino is said to be looking at doing something else entirely. This rather shocking news comes courtesy of The Hollywood Reporter, with the outlet citing unnamed sources as the origin of the story.
Only a few days ago, reports were suggesting that the film had finally locked down a shoot date following delays caused by last year’s strikes. Now, if this story proves to be true, it looks like the film might never happen at all.
There is definitely an ‘if’ connected to this story though.

If there was one thing that was going to tempt movie-goers into cinemas for some mid-budget vampire action in 2003, it was probably Bill Nighy as a vampire overlord. Or, was it the marketing campaign featuring a leather clad Kate Beckinsale? I’ll let you decide… The early noughties had already brought some decent vampire action, before we were subjected to the shimmering embarrassment to the genre that was the Twilight saga. We were also just a few short years away from seeing some proper kick-ass, sexy vampire action on the small screen with Hbc’s excellent True Blood series. The vampire genre was starting to show some signs of a re-awakening, and films such as the fun but flawed Queen of the Damned from 2002 and, of course, the awesome Blade series, were leading the bloodsucking way.

The universe that Frank Herbert originally created in the books holds a lot of elements that movies might have missed. The latest Dune game is one proper opportunity to do justice to this universe. In a way, it already is doing that. For one, it got the different incarnations of Shai-Hulud right. In addition to that, players will finally get to see the great storms of Arrakis.
But there are aspects that the game may not feature initially, like sandwalking. There’s no official release date for the game but Funcom’s game will likely arrive in 2024 only. And as the now invincible date closes, fans are attaching high expectations with it. They are expecting the in-game character to be more like Paul Atreides.

By now, we're all familiar with how the rules of engagement for spies work -- on the big screen, at least. But what if all our assumptions about fictional espionage don't fully line up with the murkiness of reality? We all cheered when a rookie James Bond killed a couple of bad guys and received his license to kill, no holds barred. Or when Ethan Hunt goes rogue and is disavowed by his government again and again, only to save the day and be welcomed back with arms open wide. Even in examples based on real-world history, like the upcoming "The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare," filmmakers tend to up the ante considerably and make certain leaps of logic in the pursuit of weaving an entertaining yarn.
But, then again, perhaps fact and fiction aren't always on opposing sides of this battlefield, after all. Nobody's claiming that surfing a tsunami is...

2024 wasn’t the first time Gambit met a tragic end in the pop culture zeitgeist as Channing Tatum’s unmade film also has an equally sad story. It is no secret that Tatum was set to star as Remy LeBeau / Gambit in a spin-off of Fox’s X-Men franchise. The film was reportedly deep in development until Disney acquired Fox.

However, the project never came to fruition, and producer Simon Kinberg’s obsession with one director might be to blame. According to reports, Kinberg was keen on getting director Edgar Wright to helm the project. However, Wright ultimately did not sign on for the project which might have had unsaid ramifications on the Tatum-led film.

Tom Cruise, a name that alone evokes images of Hollywood glamor, charisma, blockbuster films, and piercing looks. The Mission Impossible actor is a bonafide star with acting chops to support his stardom, but his pretty face is what makes him immensely attractive. His female fans would often move to the edge of their seats as they get lost in his looks, and it would be a lie if you say, you do not adore his signature grin.

Tom Cruise is undoubtedly one of the finest actors Hollywood has to offer and the biggest superstars of all time. Despite his status in the film industry, his colleagues have vouched for his generosity and graciousness on set. The actor doesn’t have diva moments like you would expect someone of his caliber to. However, he does have a strange request when it comes to his co-stars.
The Mummy (2017)
The shots of Tom Cruise running in his films are almost as iconic as his roles. Perhaps this is why he doesn’t allow his co-stars to run alongside him on screen. He wants all the attention to himself and honestly, we cannot blame him for that! Actress Annabelle Wallis though, had the privilege of being the exception to the rule and for her, it was better than winning an Oscar!

Remakes have become rampant in the film industry but the worst part is most of them lack any sense of originality. Filmmakers are constantly coming up with movies that rely solely on the nostalgia factor in order to bring the audience to the theatres. More often than not, the remakes aren’t met with positive feedback which just goes on to say that it is about time Hollywood should move on to bigger and better things.

However, before it does so, the film industry might need to take a step back and look into two of the best remakes Hollywood has had to offer in the past years – War of the Worlds and West Side Story. Directed by none other than legendary filmmaker Steven Spielberg, both films are perfect examples of how a remake should be done.

Action star Tom Cruise is often regarded as one of the last stars in Hollywood right now. The actor is known for his commitment to the cinematic experience through films such as the Mission Impossible franchise and Top Gun: Maverick. The actor has also delivered amazing dramatic performances in films like Magnolia and Jerry Maguire.
While Cruise is one of the biggest stars in Hollywood, the actor has also faced many struggles in life. The Risky Business star has come under fire for his association with the Church of Scientology and for his failed marriages. The actor has also revealed his childhood struggles with abuse from his father. However, none of that seems to have stopped the ‘savior of cinema’ from being a juggernaut.

The 1983 classic Risky Business is getting the Criterion Collection treatment with an upcoming 4K Uhd and Blu-ray release – and the list of special features reveals that this release will feature both the theatrical cut of the film as well as writer/director Paul Brickman’s director’s cut, which has the original, darker ending. That ending was available as a bonus feature on a previous Blu-ray release of Risky Business, but these Criterion discs will be the first to actually have a full, official “director’s cut” of the film on them.
Risky Business has the following description: A sly piece of pop subversion, this irresistible satire of Reagan-era materialism features Tom Cruise in his star-is-born breakthrough as a Chicago suburban prepster whose college-bound life spirals out of control when his parents go out of town for the week and an enterprising call girl (Rebecca De Mornay) invites him...

Tom Cruise has finally entered The Criterion Collection. While technically, “Cocktail” has been available on the Criterion Channel in the past, in announcing its July titles today, Criterion made Cruise’s inclusion with a DVD/Blu-Ray title official today with the addition of 1983’s classic comedy, “Risky Business,” the actor’s breakthrough film. Directed by Paul Brickman, the coming-of-age comedy film, sometimes said to be modeled after a more risqué, “The Graduate,” centers on a Chicago teenager (Cruise) and his sexual exploits while his parents are away on vacation, including spending time with prostitutes.

On Thursday, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes’ daughter, Suri Cruise, turns 18 years old.
Suri rose to fame as an infant in 2006 when she was featured on the cover of Vanity Fair with Cruise and Holmes at five months old. Photographed by Annie Leibowitz, the cover shows Cruise swaddling a young Suri in his jacket as Holmes looks down in adoration.
In 2012, Holmes filed for divorce after six years of marriage. Following the divorce and Cruise’s involvement with the group Scientology, Holmes has kept Suri out of the spotlight and away from Cruise. Suri has no relationship with Cruise.
In 2023, Holmes told Glamour magazine she was protecting Suri from the public because “she was so visible at a young age.”
Suri’s last public appearance with her father was at Disney World Florida in July 2012. Photographs captured the father-daughter pair attending rides and spending time together at the amusement park.

As one who stands up for his cast and crew members and provides morale-boosting gifts that show his gratitude for their work, there’s no denying that he has everything it takes for being a stand-up dude. One who can attest to this War of the Worlds co-star Dakota Fanning, who met Cruise when she was on her way to being one of the biggest pre-teen stars of her day. And while it has been nearly two decades since they worked together on the big screen, Cruise still sends her a birthday gift every year.

Alan Ritchson has seen his stocks soar as fans request Amazon to cast the star as B.J. Blazkowicz in a TV adaptation of Wolfenstein. After the actor’s terrific portrayal of retired Major Jack Reacher in Prime Video’s Reacher, it is no wonder that Ritchson is seeing his fans call for him to take on more iconic roles.
Jack Reacher was first played by Tom Cruise in two separate movies before the TV show Reacher was released. But it is safe to say that the fans of the Jack Reacher book series have enamored themselves with Ritchson’s almost textbook-perfect portrayal of the character.
But fan expectations know no limits. Fans now want Ritchson to portray B.J. Blazkowicz, while some others believe he would be perfect as the Doom Slayer.

Quentin Tarantino sets up a Cannes farewell for his directorial career, as The Movie Critic is set to start filming towards the end of 2024.
Following the now-established narrative, writer/director Quentin Tarantino will be bringing his directorial career to a close with his next film. It’s many years since he announced this plan, and in recent years there’s been no shortage of speculation as to what that final feature will be.
Speculation on that front is over: he’s written, and will be directing, The Movie Critic. To save you reading one of those arduous ‘here’s everything we know about the film’ articles, the guts of it are that the movie has been inspired by a real, unnamed individual. There was speculation it might be the late critic Pauline Kael, but apparently not so.
Instead, Quentin Tarantino will be looking for a male lead to play the title character.

Tom Cruise is a global superstar with a wealth of films under his belt. The actor’s impact on Hollywood cannot be overstated, and neither can his contribution to the film industry be quantified. Unsurprisingly, Cruise has also been an inspiration to innumerable artists, and one of them happens to be Christian Bale.
Like Cruise, Bale too is an incredible actor, with an Oscar to his name. The English actor made a name for himself by undergoing extreme transformations in his roles. He has starred in several critically acclaimed films in his career, pushing the limits of his skills each time.
However, one role that stands out in Bale’s immaculate filmography is that of Patrick Bateman in American Psycho. And who was the inspiration behind it? The Mission: Impossible actor, of course.

During a recent interview for Harper’s Bazaar with her Ripley co-star Andrew Scott, the actress shared that she got her first mobile phone as a gift from the Top Gun: Maverick star.
