In the fourth season of "Star Trek: Discovery," random planets and moons are being rent asunder by a free-floating Dark Matter Anomaly that has recently appeared in the galaxy. The U.S.S. Discovery investigates the Anomaly and finds that it is not a natural phenomenon. The Dark Matter Anomaly is, in fact, an energy field created by a mysterious, undiscovered species that is eventually designated Species 10-c.
In the final episodes of season four, audiences learn an awful lot about Species 10-c. They are non-humanoid, and communicate through nonverbal means. Their language is a combination of vague, emotional psychic waves, and a series of blinking lights on their own bodies. The final few episodes of season 4 are devoted to learning 10-c's language. Additionally, we learn that the 10-c once lived on elaborately constructed rings that surrounded their home sun, but the species suffered a planetwide, meteor-related cataclysm, and constructed...

The Warner Archive is mining its cache of old TV movies to release as burn-to-order DVDs. In general, this is a welcome development as it gives new life to sometimes worthy productions that have been virtually unseen for many years. Some of the fare is rather tepid, however, as evidenced by the release of The Girl in the Empty Grave, a 1977 mystery starring Andy Griffith. I'm second to none in my admiration for Griffith's talents as both a comedic and dramatic actor, but here he seems to be slumming and capitalizing too obviously on his Mayberry sheriff image. He plays another small town lawman, Abel Marsh (Griffith had introduced the character in a previous TV movie), who presides over a sleepy, picturesque mountain hamlet in the California high country. (The film was shot near Big Bear Lake at the San Bernadino National Forest). He's surrounded by a...

Naomi Watts would prefer her children just forget their mom’s a movie star.
The 48-year-old actress makes a leap to television with her new Netflix series Gypsy, in which she plays a therapist who gets fluid with her sexuality, addicted to meddling in her patients’ lives.
However, it’s a role she’d rather her sons — Samuel Kai, 8½, and Alexander “Sasha” Pete, 10 this month, whom she co-parents amicably with ex-partner Liev Schreiber — never streamed.

After a long, hard search, (ok, maybe it wasn’t that long, or that hard), the studio has finally found a replacement for Charlie Hunnam in Fifty Shades of Grey. The Sons of Anarchy star was set to play Christian Grey but dropped out a few weeks ago.
Since then, a whole host of names have popped up in relation to who would replace him in the film. Scott Eastwood, Theo James, Christian Cooke and more were all rumored for the part but it looks like the studio has made up their mind today.
Variety is reporting that Jamie Dornan, who had been mentioned with the names above, has been selected to take the lead in Universal’s film. Perhaps best known for his role on ABC’s Once Upon A Time or BBC’s The Fall, the 31-year-old actor will join Dakota Johnson in the Sam Taylor-Johnson directed movie,...

Another day, a few more names being tossed onto the list for "Fifty Shades of Grey," as Universal tries to figure out which young hunk is going to look best with their shirt off beside Dakota Johnson. We suppose acting ability could be important too, so who else is in the ever-growing mix? Well, the Tony-nominated Billy Magnussen is testing for Christian Grey (along with Jamie Dornan), and while he's known to a certain audience for playing Casey Hughes on "As The World Turns," his big-screen efforts have been scattered. But with a role in Disney's upcoming "Into the Woods," he poised to break out. Meanwhile, Luke Bracey, longtime Aussie TV actor and rising Hollywood kid who played Cobra Commander in "G.I. Joe: Retaliation," is apparently also the mix. Anyway, these guys join Alexander Skarsgård, Theo James, Christian Cooke, Francois Arnaud and Scott Eastwood in the expanding list of possible leads.

Hoping to make his father proud, Clint Eastwood’s son, Scott, may replace Charlie Hunnam in Fifty Shades of Grey. According to Just Jared, the rising actor, who has a role alongside Brad Pitt in the upcoming WWII flick Fury, is testing for the part of Christian Grey in Universal’s adaptation.
Said to have a final decision for us in a few weeks, the studio has narrowed its search down to five, say sources close to the project. Aside from Eastwood, Alexander Skarsgard, Theo James, Francois Arnaud, Jamie Dornen and Christian Cooke are all in the running. But wait, that’s not five, that’s six. Perhaps someone has dropped out?

With names like Theo James, Alexander Skarsgard and Jamie Dornen in the mix, it looks like the studio is wasting no time in finding a replacement. Now, we’re hearing that one more actor is being eyed: Francois Arnaud.
Perhaps best known for his role on The Borgias as Ceasre Borgia, Arnaud is being looked at for the role of Christian Grey, but no formal offer has been made just yet. He has been approached though, so that’s something.
In other Fifty Shades of Grey news, we’re hearing that Hunnam was only being offered $125,000 to do the film. To start off with, the actor was never fully on board with the role, he was always “uneasy” about taking it on. When he read the script, he...

Alexander Skarsgard of the supernatural-themed HBO television series True Blood and Jamie Dornan of Belfast-set BBC drama The Fall are the new frontrunners to replace Charlie Hunnam in Sam Taylor-Johnson's Fifty Shades of Grey, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
Hunnam, star of the TV show Sons of Anarchy and action blockbuster Pacific Rim, quit the mega-hyped adaptation of El James' bestselling literary sensation at the weekend, citing scheduling conflicts.

Armenian director Sarik Andreasyan (American Heist) will tell the story of a retired Las Vegas mobster who must return to the city when he discovers that his teenage daughter is missing. Willis will play the man who has been cautiously awaiting the return of the mob enforcer. Filming will begin in New Orleans in October. Willis’s next scheduled release is Sin City: A Dame to Kill For, which hits theaters Aug.

Sunday night, HuffPost Celebrity was on hand at the MTV Vma red carpet to chat with the litany of stars flooding into an amped-up Barclays Center in Brooklyn. Below, we asked Shailene Woodley, Sarah Hyland, Iggy Azalea and more how they get lucky and which band they'd like to see reunite, 'N Sync-style.
Who: Theo James and Shailene Woodley
You play the perfect teenager in "Spectacular Now" and "The Descendants." What is about you that makes people relate?
Theo: That's a good question.
Shailene: As my characters, I feel like I’ve played very broken characters that are very different. Maybe growing up with two psychologist parents allowed me to tap into some of those hidden feelings.
How's the haircut going?
Shailene: I cut it for a film, but started a campaign to get other people to do it. My mom cut her hair too.
'N Sync is performing tonight.

Last week we saw an extremely short teaser trailer for dystopian thriller Divergent, and this weekend a full-length trailer for the film debuted at the VMAs. Based on the book series by Veronica Roth, this trailer makes the film look like a cross between Hunger Games and Mission: Impossible. Which means action aplenty, a kick-ass heroine in the form of Shailene Woodley, and the barest hint of romance between Woodley and Theo James. Check out the trailer below… Divergent is set in a future world that’s divided...

"Sons of Anarchy" closes out Comic-Con 2013 with the week's final panel in the cavernous Hall H. Before that begins, there's new video to see. First up is a bit of a trailer for the new season, which includes a lot of footage. It's narrated by Jax (Charlie Hunnam), the way his father's voice narrated the early seasons of the show He's seen in his son's room, writing. Perhaps he's putting together a memoir of his own?
We get a quick glimpse at Tara's (Maggie Siff) life in jail, and the reveal that Chibs (Tommy Flanagan) has taken over the role of Vice President, after Bobby (Mark Boone Junior) stepped down in season 5. There's also clips of the club together, seemingly stronger than they were left off last season. Based on the teaser promo that was released, that cannot be the case.

The "Twilight" franchise is over, and "Hunger Games" is spawning more would-be young adult novel-turned-movie-franchises. Entertainment Weekly is pushing what could (or could not) be the next big Ya craze on their cover this week: "Divergent." Based on Veronica Roth's novel of the same title, the film takes place in a dystopian Chicago where society is split into five factions; when kids turn 16, they take a test to determine which of the factions they're best suited for. Stars Shailene Woodley and Theo James, along with director Neil Burger, sat down with EW to talk the new film, which hits theaters March 21, 2014. Highlights below. Summit, the company who foresaw the dollar signs in "Twilight," picked up the title early on. Credit Lionsgate/Summit production chief Erik Feig if they deliver the goods on this one. They also have sci-fi title "Ender's Game," which celebrates impossibly young warriors preparing for an imminent alien invasion.

Divergent is set to start filming this April in Chicago and Summit Entertainment has finally found its male lead in Theo James.
James has been cast as ‘Four’ opposite Shailene Woodley (Beatrice Prior/Tris), the female protagonist in the story.

Everyone from Alex Pettyfer (I Am Number Four) with his obvious connection to the character’s name, to Alexander Ludwig (The Hunger Games) were rumored to have screen tested for this part, but the studio clearly took their time finding the right actor for the role.
Rob Friedman and Patrick Wachsberger, co-chairmen of Lionsgate Motion Picture Group, released a joint statement saying that: “Theo is not only an incredibly talented actor, he is also who we envisioned as Four when reading Veronica’s novel which has taken the world by storm.
