Nolan's 'Oppenheimer' dominates Golden Globes; Cillian Murphy best actor

Christopher Nolan's blockbuster biopic Oppenheimer dominated the 81st Golden Globes, winning five awards including best drama, while Yorgos Lanthimos' Frankenstein riff Poor Things pulled off an upset victor over Barbie to triumph in the best comedy or musical category. If awards season has been building toward a second match-up of Barbenheimer, this round went to Oppenheimer." The film also won best director for Nolan, best drama actor for Cillian Murphy, best supporting actor for Robert Downey Jr. and for Ludwig Goransson's score. I don't think it was a no-brainer by any stretch of the imagination to make a three-hour talky movie R-rated by the way about one of the darkest developments in our history," said producer Emma Thomas, accepting the night's final award and thanking Universal chief Donna Langley. Along with best comedy or musical, Poor Things also won for Emma Stone's performance as Bella, a Victorian woman experiencing a surreal life and sexual awakening. I see this a

Hollywood actors' strike over as union reaches tentative deal with studios

Hollywood's actors union reached a tentative deal with studios Wednesday to end its strike, bringing a close to months of labor strife that ground the entertainment industry to a historic halt. The three-year contract agreement must be approved by votes from the union's board and its members in the coming days, but the leadership declared that the strike will end at 12:01 a.m. on Thursday. At nearly four months, it was by far the longest strike ever for film and television actors. More than 60,000 members of the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Performers went on strike July 14, joining screenwriters who had walked off the job more than two months earlier. It was the first time the two unions had been on strike together since 1960. Studios chose to negotiate with the writers first, striking a deal that their leadership marked as a major win and bringing their strike to an end on Sept. 26. The terms of the agreement were not immediately released. ...

The 22-second advertisement was posted on X by Lisa AI: 90's Yearbook & Avatar, an image generating app, according to American news outlet Variety. A spokesperson of the "Marriage Story" star confirmed to Variety that she is not a spokesperson for the company and that appropriate legal actions were taken since it was spotted on October 28. "We do not take these things lightly. Per our usual course of action in these circumstances, we will deal with it with all legal remedies that we will have, her lawyer, Kevin Yorn, told the outlet.

It's Scarlett and I want you to come with me..." she says, before the screen transitions into ..
