The big topic of conversation recently has been focused on who will be the next James Bond, but what about the next villain? While Theo James, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Regé-Jean Page, Idris Elba and countless other handsome Hollywood heavyweights battle it out to become the next 007, there is a person lurking in the shadows, just waiting to be the next character we love to hate. With big shoes to fill, including those of Richard Kiel, Joseph Wiseman, Mads Mikkelsen, and, most recently, Rami Malek, the aspiring bad guy’s job is not going to be easy, but it seems there is…

Nicole Kidman has called out Martin Scorsese for the lack of female perspective in his films with elegant simplicity. The actress, 57, shared which directors she hopes to work with someday, listing Kathryn Bigelow, Spike Jonze, Paul Thomas Anderson, and Michael Haneke as dream collaborators. She also said she’d love to work with Scorsese, but pointed out his preference for casting male leads and telling stories with undeniably masculine perspectives. The director, who has won one Academy Award and been nominated 16 times, tends to work with actors like Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert De Niro, and Daniel Day-Lewis – and rarely…

An update to GTA: The Trilogy has sparked anger from the game’s developers, after the studio’s name was removed from the opening screen. Remaster collection GTA: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition should have been an easy win for Rockstar Games when it released in 2021, but the game was mired in controversy over its bug-ridden state. Almost three years later, an update has given the compilation some notable upgrades, including better animations, lighting effects, and other visual improvements for GTA 3, Vice City, and San Andreas. While there’s clearly some internal politics at play, it’s Rockstar that is primarily…

Although many festive campaigns are focused on being family-friendly, the lingerie brand is known for creating racy content to attract customers to snap up their products. This year is no different, with model Abbey Clancy, 38, and her former footballer husband Peter Crouch, 43, appearing in the advert that also marks the brands’ 30th anniversary.

The former glamour model, 46, took to Instagram to show her face looking tauter than ever after a new procedure. She told her fans: ‘Here I am. I have had some anti-wrinkles done.

One of the biggest stars in the world, Timothée Chalamet, has recalled how his weight held him back from landing lead action roles early on in his career. It’s hard to believe that the 28-year-old actor was once a small-timer trying to get his foot in the industry. Now he is the face of major films such as sci-fi epic Dune and movie musical Wonka but a decade ago his looks held him back from starring in the bigger dystopian franchises such as Maze Runner and Divergent. His next big role will see his play Bob Dylan in his biopic…

Wynne Evans is favourite to leave Strictly Come Dancing on the upcoming Blackpool special, but he could benefit from a series pattern. While it may initially seem like totally bad news that Wynne and his professional dance partner Katya Jones had to face Shayne Ward and Nancy Xu in the latest dance-off, there is an unexpected benefit. The bottom two is undeniably a tough position to be in on the BBC Entertainment show, but there’s a reward for the pair who are saved by the judges. Not only do they progress to the next week, but so far in the 2024 series,…

Now, two years on, her husband Alan Plummer has died, with a source calling the incident ‘tragic’. The 49-year-old was found dead in Freshwater on Sydney’s northern beaches on Sunday, leaving the couple’s three daughters orphaned. In a statement,…

Small leapReportedly the PS4 Pro made up 14.5m of the PS4’s 117m units shifted, around 12%. Some units would have been double dippers, so I’d say 10% is fair. The PS5 Pro will be about the same percentage as well. Although I don’t think there’s much crossover between Sony’s hardware and software divisions the complaints about the former due to the lack of the latter is to be expected. I’m not sure though why the 90% who have no interest in the Pro have to get so bent out of shape about what it’s offering, even if they are scratching…

Strictly Come Dancing is bringing a beloved animated TV character to the ballroom for the first time in a ‘unique’ crossover.
