Heartstopper movie confirms British acting legends for movie finale

Heartstopper movie confirms British acting legends for movie finale

As we gear up for Charlie (Joe Locke) and Nick’s (Kit Connor) final outing in movie Heartstopper Forever, Netflix has confirmed two British acting legends are joining the cast. Motherland legend Anna Maxwell Martin is taking over from Olivia Colman as Nick’s mother, Sarah. Colman wasn’t in season 3 of Heartstopper due to scheduling conflicts, and won’t be returning for the film either. Meanwhile, Derek Jacobi is set to appear in a cameo role, with the details yet to be announced. Author Alice Oseman has opened up about Sarah’s recasting, telling Tudum: “While in Season 3, we were able to tweak the story to avoid any appearance of Sarah, it felt nonsensical for her to be absent from this final chapter, given some of the emotional struggles Nick faces. “Sadly, Olivia Colman was not able to join us for the film, so we made the very difficult decision to recast the role, rather than exclude the character. We are deeply grateful for Olivia’s beautiful performance as Sarah in Seasons 1 and 2 of Heartstopper, through …

Taylor Sheridan Should Build New Shows Around These Acting Legends

Taylor Sheridan Should Build New Shows Around These Acting Legends

No one attracts more legendary movie stars these days than Taylor Sheridan. In the eight years since he launched Yellowstone and a subsequent TV empire, the prolific creator has built shows around Kevin Costner, Harrison Ford, Helen Mirren, Sylvester Stallone, Billy Bob Thornton, Nicole Kidman, Demi Moore, and now Michelle Pfeiffer and Kurt Russell, with Samuel L. Jackson, Ed Harris, and Annette Bening set to soon join his ever-expanding universe soon. But who should be next? Once Yellowstone became a pop-cultural phenomenon, Sheridan seemed to have icons flocking to his ranch, many of them making their first-ever foray into ongoing-series television, all wanting what he’d given Costner. Perhaps it’s the former journeyman actor in Sheridan that helps him understand how to appeal to performers, by giving them the type of material actors long for but aren’t always offered. “There’s so much depth to the way he writes his characters,” Landman star Paulina Chávez recently told me. “Each of these characters has a very deep backstory — and they’re all messy. And I think that’s what makes …

Grey’s Anatomy future confirmed as two show legends set to exit drama

ABC has officially renewed Grey’s Anatomy for a 23rd season. The drama, which was created by Shonda Rhimes and first hit our screens in 2005, is the longest running primetime medical drama on television. Season 22 is currently underway on ABC and Hulu in the US and Disney+ in the UK. While the season 23 renewal will come as welcome news to fans, it’s not all good news, as two of the show’s longtime cast members, Kevin McKidd and Kim Raver, were recently announced to be departing as series regulars at the end of season 22. Raver and McKidd – who play fan favourite characters Dr Teddy Altman and Dr Owen Hunt – will make their last appearance in the season finale in May.

Grey’s Anatomy legends confirmed to depart series after 18 years

Grey’s Anatomy legends confirmed to depart series after 18 years

Grey’s Anatomy will say goodbye to two of its longest-serving stars, as Kim Raver and Kevin McKidd are set to leave the hit medical drama in its upcoming season 22 finale. Raver and McKidd – who play fan favourites Dr Teddy Altman and Dr Owen Hunt – will bow out when the final episode airs on Wednesday 7 May on ABC in the US. The pair have been central to the show for nearly two decades, with McKidd joining in season 5 in 2008 and Raver arriving in season 6 before becoming a series regular in 2010. Their characters’ on-off relationship – which saw them meet as Army majors in Iraq before eventually marrying in season 18 – has been one of the drama’s most enduring storylines. Despite a turbulent recent chapter, which saw Teddy and Owen divorce after a failed attempt at an open marriage, there are hints the duo could still get a happy ending. Series creator Shonda Rhimes teased as much, saying it was “both bittersweet and joyful to give this couple …

EastEnders legend’s mother introduced today – and is played by actor’s real-life mum

EastEnders has aired a surprise twist involving Shrimpy on today’s episode (Monday 16 March). The market stall trader, who is played by actor Ben Champniss, has been making brief appearances since 2014. But in Monday’s episode of the BBC One soap themed around Mother’s Day, viewers were treated not only to an appearance from the fan-favourite extra – but also from his mother. As Alfie Moon served them both champagne in The Queen Vic, the character said: “Alright Shrimpy, lovely to meet your mum for the first time. What do we call you, Crabby?” And posting on Instagram after the release of the episode, Champniss revealed another twist for fans: she’s not just his on-screen mum, but also his mum in real life.

Billy Crystal, Barbra Streisand, and Rachel McAdams Pay Tribute to Hollywood Legends at Oscars 2026

Billy Crystal, Barbra Streisand, and Rachel McAdams Pay Tribute to Hollywood Legends at Oscars 2026

There comes a time during every Oscar ceremony when things take a solemn turn, and with each passing name featured in the in memoriam segment, we are reminded of all of the industry titans we’ve lost. Last year was a particularly tough one in terms of celebrity deaths—which is why the 2026 Oscars took a bit of extra time to pay respects to three legends in the industry. The first tribute of the night came from Billy Crystal, who appeared onstage to honor his late friends and collaborators Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner, who died in December of last year. Crystal, who starred in Rob Reiner’s seminal rom-com When Harry Met Sally…, spoke movingly about the filmmaker, saying: “To the millions who have enjoyed his films all these years, I want you to know, here and around the world, how many times Rob told me that it meant everything to him that his work meant something to you.” Referencing the director’s 1987 film, The Princess Bride, Crystal added, “For us who had the privilege …

‘Even when the world is collapsing, life continues’: the return of indietronica legends the Notwist | Music

‘Even when the world is collapsing, life continues’: the return of indietronica legends the Notwist | Music

‘It all went so fast,” Markus Acher says. “We’ve never been this fast at making a record.” He is sitting at the far end of a sofa in the Notwist’s Munich studio. On the other end is his brother Micha Acher; next to them, Cico Beck, who joined the band in 2014, balances on a stool. For a group known for meticulous studio craft, speed is an unfamiliar sensation. For most of their career, the Notwist have worked slowly, layering, revising, rethinking, as if wary of committing too soon to anything at all. Formed in 1989 in the Bavarian town of Weilheim, the Notwist began as a heavy metal trio before evolving, over the next decade, into one of Germany’s most distinctive bands. Their breakthrough album, Neon Golden (2002), married indie songwriting to electronic textures, shaped largely by then-member Martin Gretschmann, also known as Console or Acid Pauli, in a way that felt inward-looking and strangely expansive. Its influence travelled far beyond Germany, securing the band a place in the canon of early-2000s indie experimentalism. …
