Eva Mendes Explains Why She’s Sort Of Been MIA From Hollywood

January 16, 2020 / Posted by:

The year was 1998. Eva Mendes had a small part in A Night at the Roxbury, a resume credit that could open doors and secure roles without a single audition for decades and decades to come. And Eva did act a ton in the following decade and a half. From the years of 2000 to 2014, Eva’s credits included Hitch and Ghost Rider and The Place Beyond The Pines with her boyfriend Ryan Gosling. But 2014 was the last time any of us saw her on a big or small screen. There’s a reason for that. She said she’s gotten picky since becoming a mom.

The Theme Of Vanity Fair’s Annual Hollywood Issue Is “Celebrity Road Trip On Mars”

January 14, 2020 / Posted by:

Every year since 1995, Vanity Fair celebrates the lead up to the Oscars with their annual Hollywood Issue, in which they gather some of the most talked-about actors and actresses and put them all onto a fold-out cover. Past Hollywood Issue cover themes have included Formalwear, Looking Bored, or Photoshop Mistakes. This year, Vanity Fair went with what they describe as a road movie at sunset. But they don’t specify what planet, and since everyone is redder than an embarrassed lobster, I’m assuming it takes place on Mars, or on the side of a can of Cactus Cooler. Or some red planet with an ozone layer thick enough to blur out 40% of shadows and expression lines.

Vanity Fair’s 2019 Hollywood Issue Is Out And It’s Very Colorful

January 24, 2019 / Posted by:

And I mean that in more ways than one, because traditionally Vanity Fair has blinded us with covers so white you’d think they were ads for fluorescent lights in a snowstorm. Ever since the infamous #OscarsSoWhite hashtag was born back in 2016, Hollywood has been trying to diversify more. The Vanity Fair covers of late have also been partaking in that trend by spotlighting a variety of Hollywood stars who bring the American dream of collecting checks from playing make-believe on screen into full blown Technicolor.

Hollywood Is Turning The Story Of The Trapped Thai Cave Boys Into A Movie

July 11, 2018 / Posted by:

As everyone knows, for 18 days, 12 Thai boys of the Wild Boars soccer team and their coach became trapped three kilometers inside a tourist cave located in Thailand’s Doi Nang No mountain. And for 18 days, the whole world watched and thought, “I really hope those boys come out alive.” At the same time, some people in Hollywood must have been thinking “I really hope those boys come out alive…because just think of the movie we could make!” Just one day after every boy and their coach rescued, The Hollywood Reporter is reporting that a movie is in the works.

Daniel Dae Kim Will Probably Be Replacing Ed Skrein In That “Hellboy” Reboot

September 12, 2017 / Posted by:

Be honest, the minute you heard that Ed Skrein was backing out of his role as a Japanese-American soldier in the Hellboy reboot after the backlash of criticism over Hollywood’s propensity for whitewashing – did you think, “I bet they get that guy from Lost.” Well, if you did, then you were right! According to The Hollywood Reporter, Daniel Dae Kim is in talks to take over the role. Being an Asian actor in Hollywood is hard, so it helps if you are one of THE Asian actors in Hollywood.

Kim will play Major Ben Daimio, a rugged military member of the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense who, due to a supernatural encounter, can turn into a jaguar when angered or in pain. The character is Japanese-American in the Hellboy comics by creator Mike Mignola.

Daniel has been an outspoken critic of the lack of roles for Asian actors, and famously walked away from Hawaii Five-0 when they couldn’t come up with Scott Caan money for him. Of course Daniel is not just “that guy from Lost.” He’s also a dude with a hot bod and sexy chiseled facial features. Yes, Daniel Dae (more like Daniel Bae) can get it, and I’m glad Hollywood might have woke up a little and given him something good to work with. But I fear we are sleeping on a whole lot of other sexy Asian men who are out there just waiting to objectified and drooled over. Now, get it together Hollywood and make with some juicy roles for these sexy men (and women!) to star in.

43-Year-Old Jamie Denbo Was Told She Was Too Old To Play The Wife Of A 57-Year-Old

May 10, 2017 / Posted by:

Just in case you needed yet another reminder that Hollywood is still a major bummer for some women past the age of fuckable, here you go. Jamie Denbo, aka Ginsberg on Orange Is the New Black and one-half of the very funny Ronna & Beverly, explained on Twitter last week that she was informed that, at 43, she’s too old to play the wife of a 57-year-old man. Only in Hollywood is a 14-year age gap considered too narrow.
