[Note: This article contains spoilers for the final season of House Of Cards.]

August saw the sad, quiet release of a movie called Billionaire Boys Club, a crime drama featuring disgraced actor Kevin Spacey in a supporting role. It made just $1,349 domestically, and Spacey’s latest project stands to make much, much less. In fact, Netflix’s desire to disassociate from the actor entirely—they …

If Christopher Nolan’s Batman Begins was the first movie to really take superheroes seriously, then maybe Bryan Singer’s Superman Returns, released the following year, was the first movie to take superheroes too seriously. Singer even took the non-serious parts of his story too seriously. In retrospect, it’s hard to…

No point beating around the bush, we guess. In the newest promo for the final season of House Of Cards, the newly anointed President Claire Underwood (Robin Wright) reminds viewers that her husband of thirty years is now dead and declares “the reign of the middle-aged white man is over.” Throughout the teaser, we’re…

Last year, Ridley Scott was able to throw a bunch of money at his movie All The Money In The World in order to completely replace Kevin Spacey with Christopher Plummer, but not all productions can rely on the deep pockets of a guy like Ridley Scott. One such movie is Billionaire Boys Club, a crime drama featuring…

House Of Cards will return for its sixth and final season later this year, with Robin Wright running things on and off screen. There’s still a President Underwood in the show’s White House, but it’s now Claire, who’s also served as Vice President. And in a case of life imitating art, Wright has stepped up to lead the…

According to Variety, Scotland Yard is investigating three new sexual assault allegations that have been made against Kevin Spacey, with the oldest one going back to 1996. That’s in addition to three existing investigations into Spacey that the London police have been conducting since November. The Variety story…

Harvey Weinstein, the man whose alleged misdeeds helped inspire the #MeToo movement, was arrested and formally charged with rape on Friday, but some of the other men who have recently been accused of sexual misconduct seem to be faring a little better than Weinstein—at least in terms of public opinion. That’s…

Leading up the ceremonial duties for the largest Hollywood gathering since the revelations of just how deep the culture of sexual harassment (and misogyny) runs in the film and TV industry—and really, anywhere—was going to be a tough task for anyone. And while handing over that kind of platform to a white man again…

Whatever else can be said about Ridley Scott’s ripped-from-the-headlines thriller All The Money In The World, you’d never guess—if you didn’t know already—that one of its key roles was occupied by an entirely different actor just six weeks ago. Gone is Kevin Spacey, who buried himself deeply under mounds of old-age…

While maintaining his new, no-print-media rule, Morrissey has still managed to break the news of his denial regarding some shitty comments he made to a Spiegel Online interviewer last month. In mid-November, the Smiths frontman spoke with the German outlet about a variety of subjects, including the still-cresting wave…

It remains to be seen how permanent the consequences will be from this year’s avalanche of sexual assault and harassment allegations: Noted bigot Mel Gibson, to give a similar but unrelated example, seems to have rebounded just fine after about a decade in Hollywood time-out. And director Bryan Singer, whose own…

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Sony has pushed the release date of Ridley Scott’s All The Money In The World—a movie that does not have Kevin Spacey in it, so don’t bring up Kevin Spacey—from December 22 to December 25. Apparently, this has nothing to do with any Kevin Spacey-related controversies (because he’s…

In 2006, while accepting the Best Supporting Actor award for Syriana, George Clooney gave a speech that instantly became such shorthand for celebrity smugness that South Park based an entire episode around making fun of it. “We are a little bit out of touch in Hollywood every once in a while, I think. It’s probably a…
