It’s official.. the cast has been announced. While this is not the first time someone deceased from the real world was included in STAR WARS, it certainly is the most notable to date..
CARRIE FISHER will return.
Word is, previously unreleased footage of Fisher as LEIA ORGANA will be included in the next film..
“We desperately loved Carrie Fisher,” says director J.J. Abrams. “Finding a truly satisfying conclusion to the Skywalker saga without her eluded us. We were never going to recast, or use a CG character. With the support and blessing from her daughter, Billie, we have found a way to honor Carrie’s legacy and role as Leia in Episode IX by using unseen footage we shot together in Episode VII.”
From the press release:
In recent months, Moonves has become a prominent voice in Hollywood’s #MeToo movement. In December, he helped found the Commission on Eliminating Sexual Harassment and Advancing Equality in the Workplace, which is chaired by Anita Hill. “It’s a watershed moment,” Moonves said at a conference in November. “I think it’s important that a company’s culture will not allow for this. And that’s the thing that’s far-reaching. There’s a lot we’re learning. There’s a lot we didn’t know.”
But Moonves’s private actions belie his public statements. Six women who had professional dealings with him told me that, between the nineteen-eighties and the late aughts, Moonves sexually harassed them. Four described forcible touching or kissing during business meetings, in what they said appeared to be a practiced routine. Two told me that Moonves physically intimidated them or threatened to derail their careers. All said that he became cold or hostile after they rejected his advances, and that they believed their careers suffered as a result. “What happened to me was a sexual assault, and then I was fired for not participating,” the actress and writer Illeana Douglas told me. All the women said they still feared that speaking out would lead to retaliation from Moonves, who is known in the industry for his ability to make or break careers. “He has gotten away with it for decades,” the writer Janet Jones, who alleges that she had to shove Moonves off her after he forcibly kissed her at a work meeting, told me. “And it’s just not O.K.”
The story goes on to describe forced kissing.. hugging.. firing..
In 2018, all truth becomes apparent. Hiding from history no more! LES is not more! Take it from here Ronan.. your first siren.
….but it won’t happen under the Queen’s watch.
According to former royal chef Darren McGrady, the queen avoids pastas and potatoes, opting instead for grilled fish or chicken and in-season vegetables, which may have been a difficult adjustment for Markle, who once told Delish that her favorite pasta dish, made with courgette, is “filthy, sexy mush.”
Paramedics rushed to the scene… sources say that her assistant begged that sirens not be used..

The source also said Lovato was dating someone her family wanted her to stay away from, reports “Entertainment Tonight” co-host Kevin Frazier.
Joaquin Phoenix on his role as the Clown Prince of Crime: “It Scares the Shit Out of Me”
MORE IN Collider, Phoenix just opened up about taking on the role, which has notoriously been one that seems to push actors into some pretty dark places.
“I think [Todd Phillips] is very impressive and he seems to have a very interesting understanding of this world and what he’s trying to say. And so there is something very appealing about that and working with him on this particular project,” Phoenix told the site. “It feels unique, it is its own world in some ways, and maybe, mostly, it scares the fucking shit out of me or something. It might as well be the thing that scares you the most.”
The curse of the Joker notion has floated through pop culture for a few decades.. Heath Ledger killed himself shortly after his iconic and BATMAN-changing role as the character..

Neve Campbell Confirms Her ‘Scream’ Notoriety Inspired Her Decision to Leave Hollywood »
“I needed a minute. In my 20s, it all hit so fast and so big that it was a little overwhelming,” Campbell shared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. “Wonderful, obviously, and I’m very grateful for it, but it got to a level, also, where the kinds of things that I was being offered were not the things I wanted to do. I was constantly being offered horror films, because I was known for horror films, or bad romantic comedies.”
And this week she will be jumping out of building with the Rock in theaters ..
