Hellbound star posted a statement on his personal Instagram account, where he apologised for the ongoing situation and the effects it has had on the projects the actor is linked to.Notably, the statement comes just a day after the actor was called in by South Korean police for questioning over his alleged use of illegal drugs.“I express my apologies for not being able to convey my precious work of those who have worked with me, such as movies, dramas and advertisements,” Yoo wrote on Instagram.He added: “I deeply reflect on the moments when I handled my commitments irresponsibly, and I apologise for the damage to my colleagues and officials who wanted to achieve their precious dreams and goals.”Yesterday (March 27), Netflix confirmed to South Korean news outlet Korea JoongAng Daily that two of its Yoo Ah-in vehicles – The K-drama Goodbye Earth and the Korean-language biopic The Match – have been delayed until further notice.Yoo Ah-in was also recently dropped from Season 2 of Hellbound amid reports that the actor would undergo a police investigation in South Korea for his alleged illegal drug use.“Many people have supported me and given me generous encouragement and affection, but I hurt myself and my career as an actor, and I feel great regret and shame,” Yoo continued.“I clearly recognise that my mistake was one that no excuse could cover up. The ideas behind justifications I made to myself could never mask the foolish choices [I have made]”A post shared by 유아인YOOAHIN (@hongsick)Goodbye Earth, based on the dystopian Japanese novel of the same name, was initially scheduled to be released by Netflix in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Gottmik Says Says Anti-Drag Legislation Is a ‘Wake Up Call’ for Queer Community to Be ‘Louder and Prouder’

Marc Malkin Senior Film Awards, Events & Lifestyle Editor Transgender “RuPaul’s Drag Race” star Gottmik is speaking out against the spread of legislation being pushed throughout the U.S. that bans drag queen performances as well as health care for trans people. “I actually can’t believe that we are turning back time like this,” she told me at Versace’s pre-Oscars fashion show on Thursday in West Hollywood. “But the queer community isn’t going anywhere. So no matter what you’re gonna try, we are here. And we’re going to be loud and proud. I think this is just a wake up call for all of us to be louder and prouder than we ever have been before.” Gottmik says she’s hopeful the queer community will prevail but that doesn’t mean she’s not worried. “The last round of bills has scared me a little bit and affected my mental health a little bit, to be honest,” she said. “But I just had to pick myself up and realize that we aren’t going anywhere. I’m so proud. Even in the car on the way to the Versace show today I was thinking about how cool it is that I’m a trans man able to dress in drag and go to the Versace show in Los Angeles. It’s just unbelievable.”

Virginia Democrats Block 12 Anti-LGBTQ Bills

transgender athletes from competing in sports that match their gender identity; and ban gender-affirming care, not only for minors, but some legally recognized adults in their twenties.Narissa Rahaman, the executive director of Equality Virginia, told Metro Weekly that some of the “forced outing” bills were especially pernicious.One measure would have required school administrators to out students to their parents, regardless of whether trans-identifying students have discussed their identities with their parents or whether they may be living in a home with parents who are not supportive of LGBTQ identity.“There was one forced outing bill that would require a court order for a student to be able to update their name in their school record,” Rahaman said.  “And not just their official school record, like a roster, but just any sort of school document, like a library card reflecting their correct gender, would have required a court order.”Rahaman said the organization’s priority this year was primarily aimed at defeating such bills, although Equality Virginia was monitoring other pro-LGBTQ measures that were introduced, including three bills — one introduced by Sen. Adam Ebbin (D-Alexandria), one introduced by Del.

‘Elvis’ DP Mandy Walker Makes History as First Woman to Win Top Honors at American Society of Cinematographers Awards – Full Winner’s List

Jazz Tangcay Artisans Editor The American Society of Cinematographers handed out its best visual storytelling in feature film award to “Elvis” on Sunday night, and in doing so, Mandy Walker has become the first woman to win the top prize in the society’s history. Walker triumphed over Greig Fraser (“The Batman”), Darius Khondji (“Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths”), Claudio Miranda (“Top Gun: Maverick” and Roger Deakins (“Empire of Light”) in a very competitive race.  Walker‘s win comes as Oscar voting ends on March 7, where she is also nominated. She became only the third woman ever nominated for cinematography for her work on “Elvis.” Rachel Morrison (“Mudbound”) made history as the first female DP to land a nom in 2018, while Ari Wegner was nominated last year for “The Power of the Dog.”
