‘Other Side Of The Box’ Filmmaker Caleb Phillips Signs With WME

‘Other Side Of The Box’ Filmmaker Caleb Phillips Signs With WME

Published by Daniella Wilson

Filmmaker Caleb Phillips has found a home at WME. It’s the latest rep move for Phillips, who also recently signed with Underground, the management firm that is home to Obsession‘s Curry Barker. Phillips is known for the viral horror short Other Side Of The Box, which has amassed more than 30 million views since launching in 2018. It centers on a couple who is gifted a mysterious box — to disastrous results. The film became a calling card for Phillips as he honed his skills as a director while working as a crewmember on various productions. He followed it up with Play Me, centering on a woman who awakens in a car with no memory to discover a man tied up in the backseat. Next to her seat is as a voice recorder with a note reading “play me.” Phillips is coming off of the South by Southwest debut of his feature Imposters, which he wrote and directed. The genre-bending movie stars Jessica Rothe as a mother desperate to get her baby boy back after he …

No. 1 Duke Loses Caleb Foster to Broken Foot, Won’t Have Big Man Patrick Ngongba II for ACC Tourney

Published by Sam Flores

Top-ranked Duke has lost starting point guard Caleb Foster to a broken right foot that will keep him out for an extended period, while starting big man Patrick Ngongba II won’t play in this week’s Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament while dealing with his own foot issue. “In his mind and our mind, we’ll do everything we possibly can with our mindset to continue to advance where we can give him a shot to come back when it’s all said and done,” Scheyer said. Foster had started 30 of 31 games this year, averaging 8.5 points and 2.8 assists for the Blue Devils (29-2). He was hurt with about five minutes left before the break when he stumbled backwards and planted his right foot awkwardly, then immediately turned to the bench. Foster grabbed at his right foot while being evaluated, then left the bench area. He didn’t return until well into the second half with his foot in a boot. It’s the second time in Foster’s three seasons that he has dealt with a right-foot injury …

Caleb Wilson Watches From Sideline as No. 17 North Carolina Loses at No. 1 Duke

Published by Sam Flores

DURHAM, N.C. (AP) — Caleb Wilson was right where he wanted to be in a sense, standing alongside his North Carolina teammates on the court before a rivalry loss at No. 1 Duke at Cameron Indoor Stadium. But the star freshman and high-end NBA prospect can only watch now. Instead, a freak injury — complete with Wilson posting a post-surgery photo on social media — has ended what is expected to be a lone college season with his high-lottery draft projection. It’s also delivered a potentially devastating blow to the Tar Heels’ postseason aspirations. “Obviously, there’s tremendous sadness for him,” coach Hubert Davis said. “It was a dream for him to play in the ACC and NCAA Tournament. And my heart is broken that he won’t be able to do that. But we finished the regular season, now it’s time to regroup and move toward the ACC Tournament.” “Unfortunately we’re kind of used to it as a team,” Trimble said. The Tar Heels had gone 5-1 without Wilson as he inched closer to a potential …

Stranger Things Star Caleb McLaughlin Reacts To ‘Dumb’ Fan Theory

Stranger Things Star Caleb McLaughlin Reacts To ‘Dumb’ Fan Theory

Published by Sam Flores

One of life’s small sadnesses is when your favourite TV show wraps up for good, which is exactly what happened for Stranger Things fans when the final episode landed in January. Unable (or unwilling) to come to terms with the fact that the gang’s story had really come to an end, some fans cooked up a theory – dubbed “Conformity Gate” – that suggested a bonus episode was still to come later that month. The theory proposed that the epilogue in the last episode of Stranger Things was actually an illusion created by Vecna to make the residents of Hawkins believe he was dead, paving the way for a “real” ending. Of course, the date of the alleged “real ending” episode came and went, at which point it became clear that the finale really was it for Stranger Things. Caleb McLaughlin, who played Lucas in all five seasons of Stranger Things, has now weighed in on the “Conformity Gate” debacle, admitting he initially thought the whole thing was a bit silly. Caleb McLaughlin as Lucas …

Caleb McLaughlin Voices Vivid Animated Sports Fable

Caleb McLaughlin Voices Vivid Animated Sports Fable

Published by Daniella Wilson

In this era of sports celebrities being paid megabucks, it’s not surprising that a kid would want to become a star player. And by “kid,” I mean a young goat, of course. Sony Animation’s new effort concerns one such goat, Will, who aspires to play in the big leagues despite his small stature. (The title has an obvious double meaning.) Inspired by Stephen Curry’s struggle to succeed despite numerous obstacles — the basketball great serves as producer and has a small voice role — GOAT begins with a very young Will watching a game of roarball (a sort of everything-goes basketball, played by animals) and proclaiming to his mother (Jennifer Hudson) that it’s what he wants to do when he grows up. GOAT The Bottom Line Doesn’t live up to its title, but plenty of fun. Release date: Friday, February 13Cast: Caleb McLaughlin, Gabrielle Union, Aaron Pierre, Nicola Coughlan, David Harbour, Nick Kroll, Jenifer Lewis, Patton Oswalt, Jelly Roll, Jennifer Hudson, Sherry Cola, Eduardo Franco, Andrew Santino, Bobby Lee, Stephen CurryDirector: Tyree DillahayCo-director: Adam RosetteScreenwriters: …

Caleb Williams Is GQ’s Most Stylish Football Player (Again), As Voted by You

Caleb Williams Is GQ’s Most Stylish Football Player (Again), As Voted by You

Published by Jenni Sidey

Despite a wildly entertaining effort from gunslinger Caleb Williams, the Chicago Bears couldn’t get over the hump against the Rams last month to reach their first NFC Championship Game in 15 years. But if it’s any consolation, Bears fans, your quarterback remains incredibly stylish. For the second consecutive year, Williams has been voted GQ’s Most Stylish NFL Player, through a bracket-style tournament held on GQ Sports’ Instagram page. In this season’s edition of our Most Stylish NFL Player voting, Williams defeated two of the true superstars of this era—eliminating Saquon Barkley in the first round and getting past Derrick Henry in the second—before having to take out two of his own teammates. In fact, on the right side of the bracket, each of the final four men left standing were Bears. (Chicago, stand up: You really came through for your boys.) In the elite eight, Williams knocked off Rome Odunze, his draftmate, who was on the receiving end of six touchdown passes this year. Then came Jonathan Owens, the Bears’ defensive back—and husband to Simone …

Caleb McLaughlin, Gaten Matarazzo Join Finn Wolfhard’s Monologue

Published by Daniella Wilson

Finn Wolfhard was joined by a few of his former Stranger Things co-stars for his Saturday Night Live debut. The actor kicked off his monologue as host addressing the end of the beloved Netflix show, noting that he was a mere 12-years old when he began on the series and said that it was “so amazing that 400 million people got to watch me go through puberty.” “I know a lot of people still see me as the kid from Stranger Things, right? But I’m 23 now, and I’m proud to officially announce that I am a man,” Wolfhard asserted. “Oh yeah, that’s right. Things are different now. Like, for example, I have facial hair. Can we zoom in on it? It might only be one hair, but the party starts when the first guest arrives.” “Meet the new me, the man me. Stranger Things is over, and I’m not a kid anymore,” Wolfhard continued, as Caleb McLaughlin and Gaten Matarazzo appeared, exclaiming, “And neither are we!” The audience erupted in applause, before they continued, …
