Actress News, Tips, Tricks & Ideas

Sydney Bernice Sweeney is an incredibly popular American actress best known for her performances in TV series like The White Lotus and Euphoria and films like Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Madame Web, and Anyone But You. She also recently sparked some intense (relatively speaking) speculation as to which The Simpsons racer she might have been referring to in a Madame Web-related interview with IGN.

From Resident Evil and Monster Hunter to Street Fighter and more, Capcom has an impressive stable of established IP with a long history of success- though the company, it seems, has some new things in the works as well. One of those things is seemingly a new game called The Descendants.

Perhaps two good American Horror Story seasons in a row was too much to ask for.

Lately, there seems to be a common theme that Hollywood is taking ginger characters from comics worldwide and casting Black actors. Of course, representation is always fabulous, but why is it happening with all the redheads? While some might find the choice to replace all the ginger comic characters and change their ethnicity entirely strange, I went and did some research and found a very interesting through-line with many of the actors that have been chosen to replace these characters. Interested? Keep reading!

The Prince of Persia has gone rogue! No, I don’t mean that he’s married a Hollywood actress, moved to California, and spilled the royal tea in a tell-all interview with Oprah. I mean he’s starring in his first 2D roguelite. Hot off the heels of the series’ excellent return to form in January’s The Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, his sword-swinging highness is stepping away from the Metroidvania structure and into the procedurally generated, live, die, repeat mold of Dead Cells, in The Rogue Prince of Persia. While I’ve only had a very short amount of hands-on time with the upcoming adventure, the early signs suggest that this could well be the second dazzling jewel added to the Prince’s crown in less than the space of a year.

Grand Theft Auto 6 was finally revealed at the end of 2023, but we've had no further information about the title since then. There have been rumors of release dates, delays, cast members, and detailed breakdowns of pretty much every minute detail of the game's first trailer, but a lot of the official information surrounding the game is still a mystery, including who will play protagonists Lucia and Jason.

American Horror Story: Delicate is obviously pulling from a variety of sources: It’s based on Danielle Valentine’s book Delicate Condition, but its first half is full of nods to Dead Ringers and Rosemary’s Baby. This isn’t anything new — throughout the good seasons, the bad seasons, and (most frequently) the desperately uneven sequences, American Horror Story has pulled liberally and chaotically from the horror genre. It’s a series that can be almost hauntingly unreliable. However, even at its most unstable points, there is one thing that AHShas always been able to rely on: allowing certain actresses to let their freak flags fly.

As first reported by The Hollywood Reporter, a film version of The Sims is in the works with some pretty big names involved in the project.

James Gunn and Peter Safran’s DC Universe hasn’t even had its first release, but that hasn’t stopped the studio from announcing new additions. The Teen Titans are the latest heroes getting their own live-action movie in the DCU, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

In Netflix’s Damsel, Millie Bobby Brown claws her way through a cavern, flings herself off cliff sides, and swings a sword at a dragon. While the first act of the movie carefully builds up the tension, the moment that the corrupt prince throws Brown’s character, Elodie, into a dragon’s lair, it’s nonstop action.

recently fought back on the idea of trigger warnings, calling them a sign of a lack of respect between the audiences and the media they’re watching.

Zach Galifianakis has joined the cast of Hulu's hit comedy Only Murders in the Building.

The Oscars is one of the biggest — if not the biggest night in the American entertainment industry every year, and the 2024 Oscars were no different. All the stars were out tonight, from best actor nominees like Jeffrey Wright, Paul Giamatti, and Cillian Murphy to best director nominees like Christopher Nolan, Martin Scorsese, and Jonathan Glazer.

After a winter barrage of award shows — the Emmys, the Golden Globes, the Grammys — the grandaddy of them all, the Academy Awards, are around the corner. The 96th Oscars may be a coronation for “Oppenheimer,” which comes in with a leading 13 nominations, though other films, including “Barbie,” “Killers of the Flower Moon” and “Poor Things” are in the mix.

More than 60 years after her death, Digital Marilyn Monroe - created with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) - made her debut on Friday at the South by Southwest tech conference in Austin, Texas. Appearing via computer screen in a modest black turtleneck sweater and sporting her familiar blonde pixie hairstyle, the iconic actress's digital doppelganger will converse in her familiar breathy voice.

Update, 1/11/2024:

If you’re interested in The Last of Us season two news, then we have yet another piece to share with you. This week, we’ve seen a couple of cast announcements. Today, that trend continues as there is now another actress we can add to this show. It looks like the production has unveiled who is stepping into Dina’s role. It seems like this character will get portrayed by actress Isablea Merced, another essential character for this season is locked in. 

Immortality, one of the most recent games from Sam Barlow, the creator of interactive film games Her Story and Telling Lies, has been announced for PS5. The interactive story will be available from January 23rd for Sony’s console. Immortality was first announced in 2021, and was then released in 2022.

Immortality, one of the most recent games from Sam Barlow, the creator of interactive film games Her Story and Telling Lies, has been announced for PS5. The interactive story will be available from January 23rd for Sony’s console. Immortality was first announced in 2021, and was then released in 2022.

PlayStation 5 owners are one of the few who have yet to be able to get their hands on Sam Barlow’s interactive movie title, Immortality. But their wait is finally over, as Immortality splices onto PS5 on January 23.

Sam Barlow’s acclaimed interactive cinematic mystery game Immortality is making its way to PlayStation 5 on January 23. The game first arrived on Xbox Series X/S and PC in August 2022.

Immortality, the “interactive cinematic trilogy” from Her Story creator Sam Barlow, is coming to PS5 this month.

More often than not these days, video game characters are modeled after real people. A lot of fan-favorite characters, such as Ashley in Resident Evil 4, Dina in The Last of Us Part 2, and Alan Wake in Alan Wake 2, are just a few examples of this. Mary Jane in both of Insomniac's Spider-Man games is another good example, but sometimes the extra attention of being a face model can be too much.

The Last of Us failed to pick up any prizes at The Golden Globes last night, falling short to a sweep from another HBO show, Succession.

There’s been plenty of talk about Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 over the last several months ever since its release. The title was a “Game of the Year” nominee for many, and it was the best-selling 1st party title on the PS5 by a large margin. The team at Insomniac Games did tons right with it, and even though it didn’t hit every mark, it did do much of what fans hoped for and more. The irony is that where the dev “stopped,” the fans kept going. And that brings us to Rio Morales, her voice actress, and a piece of art that almost set the internet on fire.

Marvel's Thunderbolts movie will soon be going into production, according to star Wyatt Russell. 

Hideo Kojima took to The Game Awards stage last night to unveil his new game, OD, being made in partnership with Get Out director Jordan Peele. And while I've got no real sense of what the game is actually about, Kojima himself definitely wants you to know what it's not about.

Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima announced OD, a new horror game for Xbox, alongside Us director Jordan Peele at The Game Awards. Finally, he's cashing in on the years of goodwill he built up with horror fans after making the unreleased Silent Hill P.T. nearly a decade ago. 

A New Year always brings uncertainty, but maybe not in the case of Netflix’s 2024 lineup. The streamer starts strong this January with The Brothers Sun, an action-filled crime drama starring Michelle Yeoh as Eileen, the wife of Triad kingpin who has fled to America to protect her family.

Jodie Foster doesn't think her True Detective and The Silence of the Lambs characters have anything in common – but the show isn't shying away from comparisons.

Maleficent 3 is officially in the works, according to the Wall Street Journal, and Angelina Jolie will be returning as the titular fairy. 

When it comes to potential romantic partners in Baldur's Gate 3, there are quite a few to pick from. Karlach is fiery yet wholesome, Astarion is for everyone that likes a bit of spice in their relationships, and The Emperor is there for people that have strayed too far from the light. However, when it comes to the most popular romance option, there's only one High Half-Elf that's managed to capture the hearts of players across the globe.

The iPhone has relied on Apple’s computational photography techniques for years, and one would assume that the company’s algorithm for image processing would only improve with time until a woman posed in front of a mirror wearing her wedding dress. The captured result shows that the person in the image looks different than her own reflections, indicating errors in Apple’s processing techniques.

Stability AI, the British artificial intelligence startup behind the Stable Diffusion image generator, has explored selling the company as management faces increased pressure from investors over its financial position.

While this week may feel like a bit of a slog after the long holiday weekend, luckily the new TV this week does not. Take Obliterated, for example, Netflix’s latest bawdy comedy about an elite special forces team having to go through their own The Hangover-esque recovery as they try to track down a nuclear bomb. It’s a comedy that is often raunchy but even more frequently funny, and the show is smarter than it has to be.

Andrzej Sapkowski is quite the renaissance man. He studied economics in college, and knows 20 languages. However, the world primarily knows him as the author behind The Witcher book series, a Polish 1990s low fantasy series that itself became famous thanks to the video game franchise based on it, and after that, the two television series.

In the latest wave of deepfake scandals, a manipulated video featuring Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt has emerged, raising serious questions about the implications of artificial intelligence for spreading large-scale harm. The video, currently circulating on various social media platforms, showcases Alia's face seamlessly superimposed onto another woman, who dons a stylish blue floral co-ord set and engages with the camera. The Alia Bhatt deepfake video follows the recent deepfake episodes involving Rashmika Mandanna, Katrina Kaif, and Kajol, adding to the growing unease surrounding the misuse of advanced AI technology.

Bandai Namco is under fire for the voice acting in Naruto x Boruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections, which is causing a stir among players and even its voice actors.

The production company that brought us Peaky Blinders has optioned PD James‘ popular Cordelia Gray novels and has plans to adapt the series into a female detective show. 

In a crucial step to counter the escalating threat posed by deepfake videos, the Government of India is set to introduce new regulations or amend existing laws. Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw disclosed the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) plan to address the urgent need for building trust in society and democracy. Deepfakes, hyper-realistic fake videos or audio, have become a significant concern, particularly after the viral spread of such content featuring Bollywood actresses, models and other celebrities. The ministry attributes the rapid dissemination of deepfake videos to the widespread use of social media platforms and it emphasised the need for stringent measures.

Warner Bros has officially denied that the upcoming Wonder Woman video game will be a live service game.

Nintendo has just announced a live-action Legend of Zelda film, in collaboration with Sony Pictures and Avi Arad. Let’s see who might fit the many roles this ‘legendary’ series has to offer.

The side story presented in the recently released includes some welcome new gameplay elements, but the live-action cabaret is a gimmick that feels a bit creepy for many players. The new Daidoji Agent fighting style and the group battles available at The Castle seem to be universally well-received. Unlike these additions, the use of live-action video footage of real models for Club Heavenly in Sotenbori and Castle Cabaret within the Kijin Clan’s opulent offshore pleasure palace is more divisive. Some players may be uncomfortable playing the game in front of family and friends, thanks to these voyeuristic experiences.

Stories, especially beloved stories, have a tendency to bleed past their borders and escape their original bodies. Bram Stoker’s Dracula is among many well-loved works that have long since taken on new shapes, shifting forms constantly. The epistolary tale of vampires has hundreds upon hundreds of adaptations, with one domineering throughline: Stoker’s lasting characterization of the elegant, verbose, vampiric count himself.

Diwali is almost here, and while India is all set to enter the festive weekend, the artificial intelligence space is ever so buzzing. In the first incident, Maharashtra Congress asked the state government to intervene and set up a committee to create a legal, regulatory framework to deal with the issue of deepfakes. In another incident, Google is currently in talks to invest capital worth hundreds of millions of dollars into the popular character-based AI chatbot platform Character.AI. This and more in today's AI roundup. Let us take a closer look.

Like a Dragon Gaiden, the new entry in the Sega series formerly known as Yakuza, has no chill.

Eight years after Metal Gear Solid 5, the actor behind bikini-clad sniper assassin Quiet has spoken about the role and working with Kojima in a new interview with IGN. Actor Stefanie Joosten called making Metal Gear Solid 5 «an absolutely wonderful experience,» but also reflected on «the perspective of the people that are not as happy with how she was portrayed,» saying «I think the video game landscape has changed quite a lot since then.»

It's been nearly 10 years since the release of Hideo Kojima's final Metal Gear Solid game, MGSV: The Phantom Pain, and it's still a hot topic among fans. Along with discussions about what could have been with the game (which didn't launch with all intended features) and the circumstances surrounding the creator's exit from Konami, one topic that continues to be a lively discussion relates to the infamous character Quiet, played by Stefanie Joosten.  In an interview with IGN, Joosten took some time to share her thoughts on the character in the years since the initial controversy surrounding Quiet, and how her views have changed in the years after. "It's been interesting to see the discussions about the character. Of course, I've seen them and read a lot of different perspectives on the character at the time," said Joosten. "And still, I respect the choices Kojima made and his team in designing the character. And also, of course, there's also just a choice of creating a visually appealing character. I think video games are, in a way, still a sort of fantasy world you enter, so I respect the choices regarding the Quiet appearance, for instance, being quite revealing." "But I also understand the perspective of the people that are not as happy with how she was portrayed," she continued. "This game came out in 2015, and I think the video game landscape has changed quite a lot since then. People are looking for more representation, and I really get it."

Stefanie Joosten, the actress who played Quiet in Hideo Kojima's Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain, has said she understands both sides of the controversy surrounding the sexualisation of her character.

The final season of Game of Thrones remains one of the most divisive ends to a series in TV history, and it’s not just viewers who wished for a different ending. Lena Headey has shared her dream curtain call for her character Cersei Lannister, and we’ve got to admit, it sounds pretty epic.

Apurva OTT release: Tara Sutaria is a name well known on the small screen, having worked on shows such as The Suite Life of Karan & Kabir and Oye Jassie on the Disney channel.

Sutaria is yet to make her mark in 2023, but that is set to change as the OTT release date of Apurva has been announced. It will mark the actress' OTT debut in the country.

The ending of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 leaves us with a lot of questions — and there are two ending teasers to chew on. During (and after) the credits, you’ll get major teasers to see what happens next in the story. One is for Peter Parker and pushes forward the plot of the game, while the other teases a new character entirely. Beware, because we’re going to talk about all the plot points of Spider-Man 2 here. There are going to be massive story spoilers.

Microsoft is offering a free Diablo 4 trial for all Xbox players this weekend.

Yesterday, October 11, Apple released a new 90-minute-long YouTube ‘Study with me' video featuring Emmy-nominated actress Storm Reid (The Last of Us, Euphoria, Missing). For those who are unaware, YouTube has a special niche of ‘Study with me' videos where lengthy (30 minutes to 2-3 hours) videos are posted by creators who study in front of the camera to inspire others to study, complete their work, and tackle focus issues. In the new video, Reid can be seen studying on a 15-inch MacBook Air.

Peacock’s John Wick spinoff, The Continental,has had a secret weapon lurking in the shadows. And in the third and final episode of the limited series, she was finally unleashed.

Fallout: London – the upcoming mod for Fallout 4 – is one of the most ambitious fan-made projects we’ve seen in some time. Now, as development continues, the team has shared a new update video, which outlines what else is coming.

Four years ago, Netflix did what it does best: It axed an exciting new show with an excellent first season, leaving fans with only the lost promises of what could’ve been and a reminder that the streamer doesn’t actually care about the quality of its original programming. Marianne showrunner Samuel Bodin had plans to turn the series into three seasons, but in 2020, Bodin noted a familiar rationale by Netflix: There weren’t enough viewers to justify a second season. Thankfully, season 1 works perfectly well as a stand-alone story, and Marianne satisfies as both a thrilling and emotionally gratifying work of horror — just now with a cliffhanger ending.

In May 2016, billionaire Elon Musk and actress Amber Heard hung out at the Met Gala, just weeks before Heard filed for divorce from Johnny Depp. The two had met several years before, while Heard was filming Machete Kills, for which Musk had been brought on as a consultant — but it was at the prestigious fashion charity event that the two hit it off as friends. That same month, Blizzard Entertainment launched its first new game franchise in years with the colorful hero shooter Overwatch, which would go on to sell over 50 million copies. And, years later, these two moments in pop culture history intersected.

Starfield players are noticing the same – in my humble opinion, creepy – doppelganger kids filling various non-player roles across the RPG's universe.

While Mortal Kombat 1 has been populated by a majority of incredible voice performances, many players like to give the voice actors and actresses behind their favorite MK characters some props. To embody a character and give an impeccable performance is more than just doing weird voices and standing in front of a mic. It is to understand a character’s motives, its background, its emotions, and many more. This game is full of stellar performances. For that reason, here is the Mortal Kombat 1 voice cast.

We know precious little about The Movie Critic, the project slated to be Quentin Tarantino’s tenth (and final) movie. A new cast report, however, has suggested that the director is aiming for a Pulp Fiction reunion.

The Exorcist: Believer director David Gordon Green has revealed Linda Blair's involvement in the upcoming new movie.

Mortal Kombat 1’s entire character roster leaked overnight, but NetherRealm Studios has turned the attention back to its own announcement cadence. It’s confirmed that Nitara will return to the series for the first time in almost 20 years – and not only that, she’ll be played by Transformers star, Megan Fox.

HBO’s live-action adaptation of The Last of Us was a massive hit. Typically, video games haven’t translated well in either the film or television entertainment medium. But there are some exceptions, and The Last of Us is among that group. Fans couldn’t get enough of the faithful adaptation, and it certainly turned the attention back to the video game franchise for those who might be new to the IP. Regardless, everything came to a halt for this production, thanks to the ongoing strikes in Hollywood.

Meghan Fox has been revealed to be the surprise voice actress for Nitara for Mortal Kombat 1.
