William reveals he gave Kate the chance to 'back out' of royal life in heart breaking interview

Oscar-nominated director Matthew Heineman and late filmmaker Nancy Buirski will be honored at the Hamptons Doc Fest in New York next month.

Emily Blunt and Jaume Collet-Serra will reunite for something beyond a “Jungle Cruise” sequel. Deadline reports that actress and director will work together on “Kate Warne,” an action thriller for Amazon MGM.  Dawyne Johnson‘s Seven Buck banner also fronts the project, making it the third Collet-Serra film it’s backed after “Jungle Cruise” and “Black Adam.” Currently, Blunt is only on board as a producer, but she’s looking to star in the picture, too; obviously, conversations about that can’t start again until the SAG strike lifts.

Matthew Vaughn had a long conversation with “Happy Sad Confused” this week about his new film “Argylle” and just about everything else he’s done in his career. That includes Vaughn’s aspirations for an MCU-like spy cinematic universe at MARV that combines “Argylle,” the “Kingsman” franchise, and a third franchise he has in the works.

Michael Schneider Variety Editor at Large SPOILER ALERT: Do not read ahead if you have not watched Season 10, Episode 5 of “The Masked Singer,” “A Celebration of Elton John,” which aired Oct. 18 on Fox. Elton John and Bernie Taupin wrote the track “Philadelphia Freedom” in 1975 at the behest of tennis icon Billie Jean King (whose team was the Philadelphia Freedoms). So, it was wildly appropriate that King performed the song on Wednesday during “A Celebration of Elton John” on Fox’s “The Masked Singer.” King performed “Philadelphia Freedom” as the Royal Hen — and the fact that we know she was on the show means that, alas, she was also the next celebrity to be unmasked on “Singer.” “A true trail blazer, she is famous for championing equal opportunities for all, and has made it her royal mission to be a voice for the voiceless,” a “Masked Singer” voiceover shared in giving the hints to whom the Royal Hen might be.

The next evolution in Timothée Chalamet‘s acting career? Singing onscreen, which he’ll do first in Paul King‘s “Wonka” and again in James Mangold‘s upcoming Bob Dylan bioopic “A Complete Unknown.” But is Chalamet prepared to take on the role of the iconic singer-songwriter? You bet he is, thanks to his “Dune: Part Two‘ co-star Austin Butler.

'Prince William and Kate Middleton turn backs on Australia' read the headline of a leading Aussie publication over the weekend, amid growing feeling that the Prince and Princess of Wales have abandoned Down Under during the Royal Family’s upcoming two-year tour of the Commonwealth.

“The things that would destroy me have also made me the most successful; touch the fire, push when it says pull, and see if I can live.” That’s a quote from the new documentary series, “Robbie Williams,” about, you guessed it, global pop star Robbie Williams.
