  • “Mockingjay–Part 2” Trumps “In the Heart of the Sea” at Weekend Box Office

    Mockingjay–Part 2, the final installment in The Hunger Games series of films trumped In the Heart of the Sea at the box office this weekend.

    Based on the novel by Suzanne Collins, Mockingjay–Part 2 premiered on November 20, and has spent four weeks at the number one spot. Starring Jennifer Lawrence, Liam Hemsworth, Josh Hutcherson, and Elizabeth Banks, this weekend saw earnings of more than $11.3 million. Mockingjay–Part 2 has thus far brought in more than $564 million worldwide.

    In the Heart of the Sea is a Ron Howard production, and stars Chris Hemsworth. It came close to Mockingjay–Part 2, earning $11 million in ticket sales, but not enough to reach that number one spot.

    Liam and Chris Hemsworth are competing against each other for number one box office status. Which of the brothers do you expect will win? Even if In the Heart of the Sea knocks Mockingjay–Part 2 out of the top spot next weekend, it will still have four weeks under its belt in that position–along with loads of money made worldwide.

    Jeff Goldstein is the executive vice president of distribution at Warner Bros. He commented on In the Heart of the Sea’s opening weekend during an interview with the L.A. Times.

    “It’s really a marathon and not a sprint with a film like this,” he said. “When you have an older-skewing audience, like this film, they don’t come out during opening week. You need some time for the audience to hear about it.”

    Variety, however, reports that not even foreign audiences will be able to rescue In the Heart of the Sea. They are calling this debut weekend “disastrous.”

    Have you seen either The Hunger Games: Mockingjay–Part 2 or In the Heart of the Sea?

  • Ron Howard Receives Second Star on Hollywood Walk of Fame

    Ron Howard has received his second star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. His first star lauded his acting career for roles on The Andy Griffith Show and Happy Days. This second star is for his career as a film maker.

    “Two stars are pretty remarkable…I’m going to have double the foot traffic, twice as many people treading on my good name, but I think it’s a great thing and I’m proud of that,” Ron Howard said at the ceremony–with daughter Bryce Dallas Howard by his side–on Thursday.

    “However, my ambitions run deep, so two is good, three would be better and I’ve got a lot of energy,” he added.

    Ron Howard won as Oscar for Best Director for A Beautiful Mind. He has received numerous accolades for Apollo 13 and The Da Vinci Code, too.

    “I have so few regrets, practically none, and one of them is just only that it’s been far too long since Michael (Keaton) and I made a movie together, so I’m hoping to rectify that sooner rather than later,” Howard said during the ceremony.

    Michael Keaton joined Ron Howard and his family for the event.

    Ron Howard has a new film opening in theaters tonight. In the Heart of the Sea stars Chris Hemsworth.

    There’s no question that Ron Howard has devoted his entire life to the entertainment industry. From his days as Opie on The Andy Griffith Show to Richie Cunningham on Happy Days–and then all those films. Ron Howard earned both of his stars–and will no doubt continue impressing fans for a long time to come.

    Chastain didn’t throw in the towel, however, striking back at her good friend with one last zinger.

  • Charlize Theron, Emily Blunt Look Totally Badass In New Posters For ‘Huntsman: Winter’s War’

    Charlize Theron, Emily Blunt, Jessica Chastain and Chris Hemsworth look totally badass in new character posters released for Huntsman: Winter’s War.

    Universal unveiled the four new character posters for spinoff to Snow White and the Huntsman, which features two new faces.

    According to Entertainment Weekly, the new film reunites Chris Hemsworth’s huntsman Eric with Charlize Theron’s evil queen Ravenna. New characters include Jessica Chastain as a great warrior and Emily Blunt as an unstoppable ice queen.

    Kristen Stewart, who played Snow White in the first installment will not appear in the Winter’s War, which takes place before Eric and Ravenna met Snow White. Blunt’s character, Freya, is Ravenna’s sister and has fled their kingdom after a heartbreaking betrayal and locked herself away in an icy palace. But when Freya’s two most beloved huntsmen, Eric and Sara (Chastain), defy her commands and fall in love, she casts them out into the wilderness.

    Years later, Freya learns that Charlize Theron‘s character has been vanquished by Snow White, so she seeks to claim her Magic Mirror, only to find that her sister can be resurrected.

    Things will likely get downright crazy when the two evil sisters amass an army to take out lovebirds. The two huntsmen become the only hope in eliminating the forces of evil.

    Directed by Cedric Nicolas-Troyan, who was visual effects supervisor on the original film, the movie’s trailer will be released on Wednesday and is slated for theaters April 22.

  • Scarlett Johansson Earns Just As Much As “Avengers” Co-Stars Chris Hemsworth And Chris Evans

    Scarlett Johansson is evidently not feeling the pinch of Hollywood’s gender pay gap fiasco as much as other female stars.

    In fact, Variety reports that Scarlett Johansson, while she didn’t earn Robert Downey, Jr. money, has done just as well as Chris Hemsworth (Thor) and Chris Evans (Captain America) while filming the Avengers franchise.

    Scarlett Johansson hasn’t been outspoken when it comes to the Hollywood gender pay gap, and apparently for good reason.

    However, Scarlett Johansson clearly wasn’t as shorted as her colleague, Jennifer Lawrence.

    Lawrence learned the hard way that she was being taken for a ride and she wasn’t shy when it came to calling out those responsible.

    Lawrence wrote, “When the Sony hack happened and I found out how much less I was being paid than the lucky people with d**ks, I didn’t get mad at Sony. I got mad at myself. I failed as a negotiator because I gave up early. I didn’t want to keep fighting over millions of dollars that, frankly, due to two franchises, I don’t need.”

    Believe it or not, I'm about to shoot @renner4real with a rubber band … #avengers #ageofultron #presstour #marvel

    She added, “F*** that. I’m over trying to find the ‘adorable’ way to state my opinion and still be likable! F*** that.”

    Yikes. Either Scarlett Johansson just isn’t as bothered by the problem or doesn’t see the problem in her world.

    Perhaps it is the latter option since Scarlett Johansson seems to be on equal ground with her fellow Avengers.

    Alan Horn, the chairman of Walt Disney Studios, said recently, “Audiences have proven that there’s an appetite and a market for dynamic female leads and female-driven stories, and as an industry, we have a responsibility to create those roles for women and compensate them accordingly.”

    What do you think the future holds for women in Hollywood? Do you think leading ladies like Scarlett Johansson and Jennifer Lawrence are treated differently than their male counterparts?

  • Elsa Pataky Outshines Chris Hemsworth At “Vacation” Premiere

    Elsa Pataky did the unthinkable. She out-glorified her husband, Chris Hemsworth, at the LA premiere of his new movie on Monday.

    The Vacation star and Elsa Pataky looked amazing and man, does he clean up nice.

    Chris Hemsworth wore a simply and classy suite, while Elsa Pataky worked a blush-colored lace mini dress and incredible nude stilettos.

    Elsa Pataky’s dress was detailed in flowers with a ribbon waist accent.

    Elsa Pataky was there to support her hubby in his new role as Stone Crandall in the National Lampoon’s Vacation sequel.

    It’s nice to see Chris Hemsworth in anything, and it seems his co-stars may have sometimes had a difficult time not focusing on his presence, especially when it came to trying on a few prosthetic, um, man pieces.

    Christina said, “We had all been standing at the bottom of the stairs after he had been doing some fittings upstairs; like should it get into position to go to the left or go to the right, longer, shorter … So finally they narrowed in on the hero penis, I guess! He came down and we were all clapping …”

    But, it wasn’t just his incredible good looks and willingness to prance around in boxer briefs that made Applegate appreciate all he had to offer as an actor.

    She said, “He’s this funny Australian dude who is really good at accents and he’s amazing and game for anything. When someone can make me laugh and is good at they’re job … I was definitely impressed.”

    Are you excited to see Elsa Pataky’s hubby in the new Vacation?

  • Amanda Seyfried Furious Over Being Paid Pennies Compared To Male Costars

    Amanda Seyfried was furious when she found out how much she was getting short-changed.

    “A few years ago, on one of my big-budget films, I found I was being paid 10 percent of what my male costar was getting,” Seyfried told the Sunday Times. “And we were pretty even in status.”

    This is the kind of inequality that has sparked more discussions this year than ever before. Some of that was kicked off when emails from Sony were hacked and leaked online. Seyfried and others got to see what kinds of numbers were being tossed around in their industry.

    Before Seyfried got her bad news, Charlize Theron used the information learned from leaked Sony emails to get an equal asking price as her male co-star Chris Hemsworth for Snow White and the Huntsman.

    “I thought about the temperature out there – with finding out what Jennifer [Lawrence] and Amy [Adams] were being paid on a set with guy actors who are their counterparts … They’re just as good as any of the guys on there,” Theron said. “Yeah, that pissed me off.”

    Amanda Seyfried sees this kind of uneven work area as ridiculous.

    “I think people think that just because I’m easygoing and game to do things, I’ll just take as little as they offer,” Seyfried said. “It’s not about how much you get, it’s about how fair it is.”

    Seyfried’s friend and co-star Lizzy Caplan says that one would think there would not be that kind of inequality in a business like film nowadays, where female execs are on the rise.

    “I mean, (look at) wage inequality even in our business, which is supposed to be this progressive side of things,” Caplan said. “I mean, it’s insane and it really pisses me off. I could go on a really hardcore feminist rant right now, but I’m not going to do that.”

  • Jessica Chastain, Chris Hemsworth: First Look at ‘The Huntsman’

    Jessica Chastain and Chris Hemsworth star in the upcoming film The Huntsman. The prequel to 2012’s Snow White and the Huntsman, starring Chris Hemsworth and Kristen Stewart, the new film will be released in 2016.

    For the first time since the actors arrived on the set of The Huntsman, photos have been shared with the media.

    This won’t come as any surprise to fans, but Chris Hemsworth is as hot in the upcoming film as he was in the original.

    Jessica Chastain recently appeared in a new trailer for the upcoming thriller Crimson Peak.

    Jessica Chastain is best known for her roles in Interstellar and The Help. She has recently been compared–at least her physical attributes–to those of actress Bryce Dallas Howard.

    Jessica Chastain and Chris Hemsworth are joined in The Huntsman by Charlize Theron, Emily Blunt, Sam Claflin, Nick Frost, Sheridan Smith, Rob Brydon, and Alexandra Roach.

    It will still be 10 months before The Huntsman hits theaters, but these photos of Jessica Chastain and Chris Hemsworth will have to do for now. It shouldn’t be much longer before a trailer for the Snow White and the Huntsman prequel is released.

  • Elizabeth Olsen Opens Up About That Awkward Encounter With Taylor Swift, ‘I Think I Blew It’

    Elizabeth Olsen has long admired Taylor Swift. Unfortunately, a recent awkward encounter between the two left Elizabeth Olsen feeling like she may have blown her chances to be one of Taylor Swift’s BFFs.

    Elizabeth Olsen, who is the younger sister of Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, opened up about the encounter during an appearance on The Late Late Show With James Corden.

    “I really love her, and earlier in my ballet class, I was doing a dance sequence to her music,” Elizabeth Olsen said of her idol. “I only listen to her music when I’m working out, which is a little too often because of Avengers. And I just talked at her for like a long time. I think I blew it because we didn’t exchange phone numbers or anything.”

    Elizabeth Olsen, 26, said she blew her chances when she accidentally dissed Taylor Swift’s music.

    “She was asking me which song it was, and I couldn’t remember the song title, and I wasn’t going to sing it for her!” she exclaimed. “I’m still nervous thinking about it right now.”

    Elizabeth Olsen was on hand to promote Avengers: Age of Ultron and Corden asked her who the biggest diva on the set is, to which Olsen replied, “No one’s a diva, but…”

    “Who takes the most time in the makeup chair?” Corden asked.

    “Thor,” she said of Chris Hemsworth’s hammer-slinging god character. “He’s got a lot of hair, and he’s got a lot of body to put makeup on. He’s got a far larger canvas than most people, I’d say.”

    Us Weekly reported that Elizabeth Olsen has been spending quite a bit of quality time with another Avengers star, Tom Hiddleston, who played Thor’s evil brother Loki.

    “They’ve been hooking up,” an insider told Us.

  • Chris Hemsworth: New Avengers Has ‘More Humor for Thor’

    Chris Hemsworth is talking his face off about the upcoming Avengers: Age of Ultron film.

    While there aren’t any spoilers, per se, Chris Hemsworth gives us enough info to whet our appetites for can be called the second installment in the Avengers series, but is far from the second movie.

    Speaking about his own character, Thor, Chris Hemsowrth does tell us where Thor will be when the film starts.

    “We put up with Thor having stayed on Earth from Thor 2. So he’s here. He’s part of the team. This is his home for the moment.”

    While he is careful not to reveal too much, Chris Hemsworth does say that the instigating action in the film is a factor that brings all the Marvel Universe neatly together under one arc.

    “The initial kind of threat — attack — from Ultron is personal, because it’s at all the Avengers, and Thor then begins to see a bigger picture here about what this threat could be, potentially. And it begins to kind of tie in all of our films. It’s hard to say too much without talking about what I can’t talk about, but as I said, it’s a personal loss [for Thor] from the get-go.”

    One fun bit to look forward to is seeing the God of Thunder in street clothes.

    “[There’s a] party scene, and I was in a nice coat and jeans, and the guys just kept joking, ‘When did Thor go shopping? Did he buy this online? Or did Jane do it?’ You don’t see him go shopping, but the question’s raised, because he’s not dressed in his own guardian attire. He’s more human in the film definitely.”

    In the first Thor film, as well as the first Avengers installment, Thor is played as still being unfamiliar with the customs of humans. There was some humor on that. Chris Hemsworth says that the goofiness of Thor is going to be polished off a bit, but now he gets to joke with the rest of the gang.

    “Thor has loosened up a bit. I think we lost some of the humor and the naiveté and fish-out-of-water quality of Thor from the first film into the second one. And there were things I loved about what we did in the second one too, tonally, but you know that sense of fun? I would have liked it to be there a bit more. And Joss [Whedon], I think, felt the same way. So there’s more humor in Thor. He’s off Asgard now, so he doesn’t have to be as regal and kingly as he is in that world, which is nice. I enjoy that more. It’s sort of a box, which he gets to step out of, on Asgard. That stuff just looks out of place, whereas here you can have a gag with the guys and he can throw away lines and be in a party scene with them in civilian clothes, which is nice.”

  • Kate McKinnon Channels Hillary Clinton, Iggy Azalea on ‘SNL’

    Kate McKinnon wasn’t the host of SNL this weekend, but she certainly captured lots of attention on this episode of the show. Opening the evening with a sketch in which she channeled Hillary Clinton, McKinnon was replete with the facial expressions and hand gestures of the former first lady and future potential presidential candidate.

    Of course the topic was ‘Servergate,’ regarding that private email address that has Hillary Clinton front and center in national news reports. Kate McKinnon, as Hillary Clinton, addressed the nation from her couch at the Clinton’s Chappaqua home.

    In addition to Servergate, Kate McKinnon made many references to Clinton’s potential run for president–one that was accompanied by an ultrasound of Hillary Clinton in utero, waving a ‘Hillary for President’ flag. She said she knew she wanted to be president even before she was born.

    A bit later in the evening, Kate McKinnon switched hats, moving on from Hillary Clinton and stealing Azealia Banks’s hat in her role as Iggy Azalea. Sasheer Zamata portrayed Banks as the two lampooned the rappers and their high-profile feud over Iggy Azalea’s habit of ‘co-opting black culture.’ Chris Hemsworth–the Saturday Night Live host for the evening–played the role of Azalea’s hip-hop cousin Rafty.

    And yes, Chris Hemsworth was gorgeous on SNL. Ladies no doubt swooned over his abs, his rugged good looks, and his adorable Australian accent. However it was Kate McKinnon who made Saturday night’s show.

  • Kate McKinnon Gets Personal With Chris Hemsworth in “SNL” Promos

    Kate McKinnon was obviously happy to give Chris Hemsworth a hand in promoting this week’s episode of Saturday Night Live.

    Chris Hemsworth will be hosting the show, Zac Brown Band will be the musical guests.

    If the promos with Kate McKinnon are any indication, Chris Hemsworth is going to be an amazing host.

    The two of them shot several promos for the show including one where Kate McKinnon seems to forget her purpose and just stares at Chris Hemsworth through the entire thing.

    In another, Kate McKinnon suggests that she and Chris Hemsworth should try the infamous Dirty Dancing lift.

    “There’s something I’ve always wanted to do, and you’re the perfect host,” Kate McKinnon said.

    It didn’t end well for McKInnon, as is seems Chris Hemsworth has never seen the movie. Instead of using his enormous biceps to lift her into the air, he grabs her as she runs toward him and promptly twists her into a choke hold.

    Kate McKinnon says, choking, “You’ve never seen Dirty Dancing, have you?”

    In another, Kate McKinnon plays personal trainer to Chris Hemsworth.

    She yells, “Come on, b**ch. Own that! Be the change. Earn it! Think about every time someone told you you couldn’t do it! Think about every time someone told you that Liam was the hot one, not Chris!”

    The whole time Chris is trying to get pumped up to lift two tiny, maybe three pound, dumbbells.

    In another promo, Kate McKinnon tells Chris Hemsworth that she’s an incredibly strong woman and challenges him to an arm wrestling match. She then reveals that all of that was just a ruse so that she could touch him.

    Get it, Kate McKinnon.

    This weeks episode is sure to be hilarious.

    Scarlett added, “He’s shockingly handsome and surprisingly approachable. He is every man and like no man you’ve ever met before.”

    Yes, he is shockingly handsome.

    And luckily for Elsa Pataky, he’s also shockingly sweet.

    She said, “Chris Hemsworth is one of those actors who comes along once in a blue moon, or, according to my mom, never before. He’s all at once sensitive and ferocious, otherworldly and grounded.”

    Scarlett added, “He’s shockingly handsome and surprisingly approachable. He is every man and like no man you’ve ever met before.”

    Her words were sweet, but not as lovely as the words Hemsworth himself had to say in his acceptance speech.

    Of his wife, Elsa Pataky, he said, “The best thing I’ve got from coming to L.A. was meeting my wife – who is actually from Spain and who was lured here by Hollywood – and who I love very much. And that is the greatest thing over the last few years. So, thank you, everyone, but especially my wife.”

    So sweet!
