In an interview with Alan Cumming, Helen Mirren announced that she would retire her revered breasts from appearing nude onscreen. “That’s the good thing about getting older,” she told Cumming. “You don’t have to do that sort of thing anymore. My pleasure pillows are purely for my husband now.” Mirren added that she…
I almost missed The Intern. Not because of a ticket mishap or projector problem, but because it came this close to not getting the green light. Nancy Meyers, the film’s writer and director, says it was the hardest movie she’s ever made, and that the process of selling it was both “frustrating and disheartening.”…
The return of Nancy Meyers is nigh! The writer-director behind What Women Want, The Holiday and the Father of the Bride movies, is back with her latest film since 2009’s It’s Complicated.

Andrew Garfield would be into playing a gay Spider-Man — after all, MJ can stand for anything.
Miley Cyrus overshared to Elle UK about not wanting to do any more oversharing. No, sir. "We [herself and Liam Hemsworth] were too nice to the world and gave them too much insight—into my life and my puppies and my house–-and I just don't feel they get that privilege any more. Like on my Twitter, I'm much more... not…
