Dakota Johnson has opened up about her family’s feelings when first watching HBO’s The Girl.

Dakota Johnson comes from one of the most important in entertainment. The actress is the daughter of Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson, two of the greatest actors of their time. Griffith is also the daughter of Tippi Hedren, one of Alfred Hitchcock’s muses and an icon of the era.

True Detective, led by Jodie Foster, has officially been confirmed by HBO.The Oscar-winning actress has been cast alongside professional boxer and Indigenous rights advocate Kali Reis.The fourth season, titled True Detective: Night Country, comes from writer-director Issa López, who will also executive produce alongside Foster, Barry Jenkins, Matthew McConaughey, Woody Harrelson and Cary Fukunaga.“We are tremendously excited to return to the True Detective franchise and to be working with the multi-talented Issa López, whose singular vision for her ‘Night Country’ instalment will be beautifully realised with Jodie Foster and Kali Reis in the starring roles,” said Francesca Orsi, the Executive Vice President and Head of Programming at HBO.A synopsis for the upcoming season (via Deadline) reads: “When the long winter night falls in Ennis, Alaska, the six men that operate the Tsalal Arctic Research Station vanish without a trace.“To solve the case, Detectives Liz Danvers (Foster) and Evangeline Navarro (Reis) will have to confront the darkness they carry in themselves, and dig into the haunted truths that lie buried under the eternal ice.”“It was all a dream…..” ✊

1960s films “Marnie” and “The Birds.”The “Fifty Shades of Gray” alum, 32, noted in a recent Vanity Fair profile that Hitchcock gave Griffith, 64, a mini Hedren stuck in a small coffin as a toy for Christmas.“What happened with my grandmother was horrific because Hitchcock was a tyrant,” Johnson said. “He was talented and prolific — and important in terms of art — but power can poison people.”She noted that the traumatizing gift was “alarming and dark and really, really sad for that little girl” and “really scary.”The “21 Jump Street” actress then looked back on the 2012 HBO drama, “The Girl,” which fictionalized the contentious relationship between the “Psycho” filmmaker and Hedren, 92, during filming “The Birds.”Johnson and her grandmother saw a private screening of the movie with the rest of their family.“We sat at HBO, my family, and watched that movie together,” she said.Johnson continued, “It was one of those moments where you’re just like, how could you not have warned us? We’re in a room with some execs.

Sasha Urban editorTiffany Haddish is unstoppable. She stars in mystery comedy series “The Afterparty” on Apple TV+, she had a featured role alongside Nicolas Cage in “The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent,” she has a number of other films and TV shows in the works, and she just released a children’s book, “Layla, the Last Black Unicorn.” But before her current string of successes, she spent time in foster care with no guarantee of her future.

Michael Schneider Variety Editor at LargeThe stars of Apple TV+’s comedy whodunit “The Afterparty” still laugh at how wrong their friends and family members were in guessing the show’s killer. “My brother said Tiffany,” says star Sam Richardson, referring to Tiffany Haddish, who plays the police detective investigating the crime. “He was like, ‘Oh, interesting.

“I love stand-up,” declares Tiffany Haddish, as she reflects on her 25-year career. “That’s where my heart is.” While Haddish’s acting star has been on the ascendant ever since she lit up the screen in her big-screen breakthrough, Girls Trip, in 2017, she knows she’d always be most comfortable in front of a live audience. “Somebody said to me, ‘What if you were told you could never act again?’ I’d say, ‘As long as I can do stand-up, I’m fine with that.’”
