A Complete Unknown is heading to streaming. Timothée Chalamet fans will soon be able to stream his Oscar-nominated performance as Bob Dylan on Hulu.

Per Deadline, the Searchlight biopic arrives on the streamer on March 27 after a 92-day theatrical window. Directed by James Mangold, A Complete Unknown is based on the 2015 biography for Bob Dylan, Elijah Wald's Dylan Goes Electric!. The movie focuses mostly on Dylan's rise in folk music by utilizing electric instruments, with the title coming from the lyrics of "Like a Rolling Stone," one of the singer's most popular songs. The movie is widely considered to be among the best film releases of 2024, and it earned over $109 million at the box office.

For his performance in A Complete Unknown, Chalamet won the SAG Award for Best Actor, beating out fellow nominees Adrien Brody (The Brutalist), Daniel Craig (Queer), Colman Domingo (Sing Sing), and Ralph Fiennes (Conclave...

Last Saturday at the Screen Actors Guild Awards, one of the defining moments of the evening was Timothée Chalamet receiving Best Actor for his performance in “A Complete Unknown.” Not just because it was an upset for Adrien Brody who seemed primed to take the prize for his turn in “The Brutalist” — even Kieran Culkin made a joke about it during his own rambling speech — but also because of what Chalamet told the crowd and the audience watching at home.

“I can’t downplay the significance of this award because it means the most to me, and I know we’re in a subjective business, but the truth is I’m really in pursuit of greatness,” Chalamet said. “I know people don’t usually talk like that, but I want to be one of the greats. I’m inspired by the greats. I’m inspired by the greats here tonight.

The Brutalist heads into Sunday’s Oscars ceremony as one of 2024’s most acclaimed films, an epic piece of filmmaking that earned 10 Oscar nominations, including Best Picture and Best Director for Brady Corbet. However, while the film was once considered the Best Picture favorite, its best bets for Oscar glory on Sunday are in other categories: Best Score, Best Cinematography, and presumably Best Actor. Or at least so it appeared before the Screen Actors Guild Awards, when A Complete Unknown star Timothée Chalamet pulled off the upset win over The Brutalist lead — and season-long frontrunner — Adrien Brody. With Chalamet’s surprise SAG win, how worried should Brody be about a Timothée triumph at the Academy Awards?

Before answering that, let’s flash back to 2022. That year, Todd Field’s Tár was in a similar boat, the cineaste favorite about a fictional character so fully embodied by an actor that audiences...

When the 97th Academy Awards ceremony is held on March 2, viewers will notice that the way nominees are introduced in their respective categories will be like it used to be years ago. Per Variety, an assortment of film clips will be played as the nominees in acting categories are introduced, which has not been the case in recent years.

Back in 2021, when the pandemic was in full swing, the Oscars were broadcast with no host, and no film clips before each of the nominees. Instead, at the 2021 ceremony, the presenters gave a few “fun facts” and praise about each nominee in their category, per InsideHook. The ceremony also reduced the number of clips for acting nominees to free up time for more comedy or musical numbers and speeches.

When the ceremony is broadcast, viewers will be able to see clips from such films as A Complete Unknown, The Apprentice, and...

After a handful of appearances as Guy Fieri on Weekend Update, Bobby Moynihan took the impression to a whole new level on a December 2013 episode of SNL.

Fieri/Moynihan then goes on to name-drop an insane parade of early 2010s reality TV personalities as the special’s guest stars — Criss Angel, Bret Michaels, Dog the Bounty Hunter, Big Ang from Mob Wives, the casts of Duck Dynasty and Pawn Stars — as well as, for no reason whatsoever, Verne Troyer and Mimi from The Drew Carey Show.

The promo also features the most insane Guy Fieri-like Christmas recipes imaginable, such as a stocking filled with bean dip and “Straight Cake” — as opposed to fruit cake — made from bacon and Matchbox cars.

Tom Holland had tasted fame at an unprecedented level at a very early age. For the British star, Hollywood was his playground sandbox and movies were his medium of first expression. But with such an exposed world also comes its pitfalls which, in the case of Tinsel Town, often claim a very steep price.

In the years since his Marvel fame, Holland found the price was asking too much of his sanity, peace, and mental health. His function as a celebrity in modern society was getting increasingly demanding, from signing autographs and taking pictures to bearing the brunt of dissenting fans and tabloids who could not comprehend his need to log out of social media.

Andrew Garfield is one of the most desirable men in Hollywood whose talents know no bounds and Jamie Dornan knows this all too well.

However, if the multiverse is real, then there is probably a universe where Andrew Garfield never tried his hand at acting and ended up becoming a fantastic athlete instead. He always had a special talent when it came to sports and while it’s absolutely impressive, Jamie Dornan couldn’t help but get a little annoyed with it all.

Julia Fuhr Mann’s debut documentary Life Is Not A Competition, But I’m Winning sets out to share stories that have long been sidelined. Released in 2023, the film focuses on transgender and intersex athletes facing prejudice within competitive sports. Through intimate portraits and examination of seminal events, it brings overlooked figures to light while questioning conventions around gender that cling stubbornly to the past.

We learn of triumphs denied recognition, such as Lina Radke becoming the first woman to win an Olympic track title in 1928 only to have her achievement swept aside. We encounter harsh barriers like those confronting athlete Stella Walsh, her accomplishments revoked after autopsy uncovered intersex traits. Through their words and those of modern challengers, discrimination becomes viscerally clear—rules policing bodies deemed not normative enough remain ever-present threats to joy found in athletic pursuit.

Mann takes an essayistic approach, crisscrossing personal anecdotes with an analysis of seminal occasions.

Viewers may think that making the USA Olympic team comes with a fat paycheck. Recently, a pro volleyball player for Team USA dished on the shocking way he and his teammates make ends meet. So, what did pro Erik Shoji have to say?

Some American Olympians Make Big Bucks

Without question, some American Olympic athletes bring in the big bucks. A lot of this has to do with pro NBA players making the roster for American basketball, for example. However, even athletes who are not part of a pro league also make big bucks through brand endorsements and more.

As one example, despite retiring in 2016, swimmer Michael Phelps has an impressive estimated net worth of $100M. Before securing more gold and glory at the recent Olympic Games in Paris, Simone Biles had an estimated net worth of millions as well.

However, pro volleyball player Erik Shoji, who represents the American team,...

After helping Snoop Dogg close out the Paris Olympics, Dr. Dre is already looking ahead to the next Summer Games. The hip-hop legend is hoping for the opportunity to take his shot at making the Team USA archery team for the 2028 Olympics in his hometown of Los Angeles.

The producer/rapper explained: “I actually started playing around with archery in junior high. I stopped for a while and [then] my son bought me a setup — I don’t know if it was for my birthday or Father’s Day or something like that — so I have it set up in my backyard.

The Paris Olympics set a high bar for itself after an opening ceremony that showcased Lady Gaga, Celine Dion and a scenic backdrop involving virtually every Parisian landmark along the Seine. But the closing ceremony — taking place on a blistering hot day in stark contrast to the pouring rain of its kickoff — also delivered a blockbuster show with a Hollywood twist.

As part of the glitzy handover to Los Angeles as it prepares to host 2028’s Summer Games, Tom Cruise wowed audiences with a few epic stunts while Billie Eilish, Snoop Dogg and the Red Hot Chili Peppers performed and H.E.R. sang the U.S. national anthem. Swimmer Katie Ledecky and rower Nick Mead — who both secured gold medals at the 2024 Games — were the flag bearers for the U.S., whose team topped the Paris Olympics with a whopping 126 medals, beating China, the U.K. and France.

Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight has shared how his encounter with US rapper Snoop Dogg changed his view of the drama he had created as a love letter to his native Birmingham, a city in the middle of the UK.

The prolific writer and producer can count A-listers including Barack Obama, Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt among the fans who have expressed their love for the show, which ran for six seasons until 2022. But it was meeting Snoop that made him realise just how big the show really was – and that it had brought home to him the universal nature of the show “with people from Eastern Europe to Buenos Aires getting it and feeling the same thing.”

Peaky Blinders was inspired by Knight’s own childhood in Birmingham, where his mother worked for local bookmakers at a time when betting was illegal. The drama was based on stories Knight learned about local gangsters,...

Simone Biles has a lot to celebrate in Paris this summer, but the record-breaking gymnast also made sure to carve out some time to celebrate her dad’s birthday this week, with a little help from Snoop Dogg.

Her sister, Adria Biles, posted a photo on her Instagram Story of a nonchalant Ronald Biles proudly showing off his new jewelry. “Snoop gave him a chain now he don’t know how to act,” she wrote, with a laughing emoji. See the photo below.

Four-time Olympic swimmer Katie Ledecky and two-time Olympic rower Nick Mead have been named as Team USA flag bearers at the closing ceremony of the 2024 Olympics on Sunday.

The announcement by the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee (Usopc) comes amid growing excitement around Sunday’s ceremony, which will see the city of Paris hand over the summer games baton to L.A., host city in 2028.

A raft of Hollywood stars is expected to participate in this segment of the ceremony, led by Tom Cruise, who is believed to have pre-recorded material in Paris this spring and is also rumored to be preparing a skydiving stunt into the Stade de France venue.

The flag bearing honor for Ledecky follows a stellar performance in Paris where she won four medals to become the most decorated U.S. women’s Olympian of all time and the fifth most decorated Olympian in history with 14 medals.

A surprising star of the 2024 Paris Olympics has been rapper Snoop Dogg, who has donned the role of a “special correspondent” for NBC. Reports suggest that Snoop Dogg’s participation in the Olympics did not come cheap, with estimates of a six-figure daily payout plus expenses.

New York-based venture capitalist and Forbes-30-Under-30 honoree Henry L. McNamara shared in a post to X:

“Sat next to an NBC exec at dinner, he said Snoop gets paid $500k a day plus expenses to be here promoting Olympics. From Gin and Juice to a few million to be a celebrity at the Olympics – what a world.”

There’s no way Snoop Dogg would let his epic stretch of festivities at the 2024 Paris Olympics pass without picking up a microphone for music purposes, rather than his commentary as NBC’s special correspondent.

The celebration, co-hosted by Comcast NBCUniversal and the NBA, recognized the 50th anniversary of USA Basketball.

Leon Marchand, the 22 year-old swimming champion who made Team France proud with four gold medals and one silver at the Paris Olympics, ranks as one of the games’ biggest breakout athletes.

After wrapping up his last competition on Monday, Marchand, who is originally from Toulouse, in Southern France, and travelled to Paris with his parents and brother, embarked on a wall-to-wall media tour marathon but reportedly snubbed one of the Olympics’ most popular talk shows, “Quels Jeux,” which is hosted by prominent journalist Lea Salamé and airs on broadcaster France Televisions.

According to Le Parisien newspaper, it is because Salamé’s show “doesn’t fit his values,” although they didn’t expand on why that might be.

Still, the snub has been the talk of France’s Olympics-mad media. “Quels Jeux” has been criticized for being too celebrity-heavy at the expense of the actual sports, simply offering a platform for self-promotion.

There was a fantastic moment to end the artistic gymnastics competition at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. One that summed up the positive, fulfilling vibe of the entire proceedings — a vibe that been set from the opening ceremony.

Simone Biles, the greatest gymnast of all time, had just taken silver in the floor exercise event final, along with Jordan Chiles, the bronze. Together, these two U.S. stars bowed to the woman who’d won gold, Brazil’s Rebecca Andrade — a gymnast who has turned in some of the most consistently strong routines of any athlete in the world the past few years (and had picked up a gold in vault at Tokyo), but has, by any measure, been a bit in Biles’ shadow in the past. That bow was a game-recognizing-game moment so worthy of Biles’ Olympic spirit and that of the whole U.S. women’s gymnastics team...

Sharon Stone and legendary long jump champion Carl Lewis both voiced support for Kamala Harris in her bid to become U.S. president, on the fringes of a gala at the 2024 Paris Olympics on Saturday evening.

“I’m all in for Kamala Harris,” said Stone. “It’s not only because she’s a woman and because we see clearly in businesses that women leaders are better leaders, and that men who hire women within their companies do better.

“We understand that Kamala Harris was a lawyer, who became a prosecutor, who became an attorney general, who became a senator, who then was a presidential candidate, who gained so much respect in that campaign that she was asked to become vice president of the United States. This is a qualified person. This is not a game show host who looks like a 1975 Vegas act.”

Snoop Dogg’s latest side quest, the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, has proven to be an unforgettable one, not only for the legendary rapper but also for fans across the United States.

The “Drop It Like It’s Hot” artist, who’s been in Paris helping NBC with its primetime coverage, could arguably be Team USA’s biggest fan. He’s gone from carrying the Olympic Torch to cheering on the women’s gymnastics team in the stands to learning how to fence and more.

Since the Olympics officially got underway on July 26, people have taken to social media to share their reactions to Snoop Dogg’s presence in Paris — and it’s been nothing but positive, to say the least. Some fans have even praised NBC for bringing the rapper back to help with coverage, notably after his and Kevin Hart’s Olympic Highlights show for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.

When you think of the legends of the hardwood, does Shaquille O’Neal’s towering presence spring to mind? How about his foray into the world of reality TV, where the NBA legend became a superhero of sorts—leaping bounds outside his comfort zone and into the realm of the unthinkable?

Well, Shaq’s larger-than-life persona isn’t confined to just shattering backboards. This gentle giant, one of the few men to ever throw down a challenge to the iconic Michael Phelps in a swimming pool and come out on top—albeit with a wink and a massive splash—is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime athlete.

The 2009 season of reality TV show, Shaq Vs. threw us a curveball straight out of left field: Shaquille O’Neal, the father-of-six who briefly traded courts for TV sets, didn’t just play the game; he changed the game.

Simone Biles has been putting on a show at the Paris Olympics. Even so, as much as she is loved by fans everywhere, she also gets her fair share of hate as well. The gold medalist recently made a bold statement to silence her critics, including showing off a special necklace. So, what’s the latest on this situation?

Simone Biles Is A Global Icon

When anyone thinks of the Olympics, Simone Biles is often one of the first people to come to mind. In the same way that Michael Phelps dominated public consciousness for several Olympic cycles, Simone Biles has proudly taken up the mantle as one of the most respected and admired competitors there is.

Even people who don’t regularly keep up with gymnastics or the Olympics in general are tuning in to watch Biles compete. She isn’t just dazzling average viewers, either. Many celebrities hold...

Simone Biles is an ultra-golden girl, winning her record sixth Olympic gold medal during the all-around competition on Thursday in Paris.

The 2024 Paris Olympics featured a historic showdown on Thursday, as Simone Biles and Suni Lee faced off for the all-around gymnastics title, marking the first time the past two Olympic champions would compete against one another. The American gymnasts have won the last five all-around titles, beginning with Carly Patterson in 2004, then Nastia Liukin in 2008 and Gabby Douglas in 2012. Biles won the 2016 all-around in Rio with Lee winning gold at the 2020 Tokyo games.

After a tough back and forth between the two Americans and Brazil’s Rebeca Andrade, Biles nailed her floor routine and reclaimed the crown — becoming the first woman to win two Olympic all-around titles since Czechoslovakia’s Vera Caslavska in 1964 and 1968. Andrade won the silver medal, while Lee earned the bronze.

Snoop Dogg‘s Olympic broadcasting journey is proving to be a standout experience, thanks to his unique and vibrant presence. As NBC’s Paris 2024 Olympic special correspondent, the 52-year-old rapper brought his signature flair to the games.

During a “Primetime in Paris” segment on Monday night, Snoop humorously dismissed the need for swim goggles while taking a pool lesson with 23-time gold medalist Michael Phelps. “Hell no, I see really good without them,” he declared.

The moment was highlighted by Snoop’s playful act of revealing his bathing trunks and stepping into the water with a dramatic flair.

Snoop Dogg’s – Unique Commentary Style

Snoop’s commentary has already made waves, especially with his unforgettable description of a badminton match between the USA and China. On July 28, his vivid play-by-play captured the intensity of the game:

“As you see, it don’t stop ’til the casket drop. They rocking and rolling.

Snoop Dogg and Queen Elizabeth, Bff? In a recent interview with England’s Capital FM, held during afternoon tea at London’s Mandarin Oriental, the rapper reflected on his long-time connection to Queen Elizabeth II.

“I’ll go by the palace, see if they let me in,” Snoop told interviewer Jordan North during the conversation, filmed in July ahead of the 2024 Paris Olympics. North replied, “Well, I’ve heard the future king, William, is a huge Snoop fan.”

“Well, the Queen was a fan too,” Snoop said, adding “Rest in peace to the Queen,...
