Carrie Ann Inaba to Permanently Replace Julie Chen on ‘The Talk’



Sources tell Variety that Inaba has closed a deal to join the CBS daytime chat show, and will come aboard in January. A CBS representative declined to comment for this story.

Inaba has been one of several guest hosts filling in since Chen’s departure from the daytime talker in September, which came on the heels of Chen’s husband–CBS chairman and CEO Leslie Moonves–being ousted from the company over multiple allegations of sexual harassment and assault.

Charlie Cox responds to Daredevil Cancellation

title or description

In a new interview with Entertainment Weekly, Cox finally broke his silence, echoing the sentiments of his co-stars by explaining that he wasn't quite ready to say goodbye to the character of Matt Murdock.

"I lot of us really expected to keep going, and I certainly did," Cox shared. "The truth is, I felt like we had a lot of stories to tell, and although I understand [the cancellation], I'm very saddened by that."

"It's just how the business works, but also, these characters mean a lot to people," he continued. "It's weird to think there's a chance I won't be playing Matt Murdock ever again. That's a bizarre feeling, because that character has been such a huge part of my life for the last four and a half years."

There were several great movie soundtracks released in 2018, and we've spent a lot of time talking about them, but what about the music from film without vocals? Indiewire has come up with the 10 best instrumental (sorry, Thom Yorke) movie scores of the year.  Here are four of their ten choices, with sample clips and a link to each full album on Spotify - check out the rest at the source.

8. Annihilation (Ben Salisbury, Geoff Barrow)



Annihilation came out early this year to mixed reviews, but the soundtrack was widely appreciated by those who enjoyed the film. It's haunting, eerie and downright unsettling, and I searched for it the minute I got home from the theater. Check out the full score here.

Princeton Group Cuts 'Little Mermaid' Song Citing 'Toxic Masculinity'



An all-male a cappella group at Princeton University has pulled a Disney movie song from its act.
A student newspaper column suggested the lyrics helped promote “toxic masculinity.”
During "Kiss the girl", a woman would be brought onstage to decide whether or not a man from the crowd could kiss her.
The song’s message is misogynistic and too many women have been pulled on stage for unwanted encounters.

In The Little Mermaid, the song’s lyrics are sung by Sebastian the crab as he encourages Prince Eric to kiss Ariel, who can’t talk because she traded her voice in order to become human for him.

“My oh my/ Look like the boy too shy/ Ain’t gonna kiss the girl,”
“Ain’t that sad?/ It’s such a shame/ Too bad/ You’re gonna miss the girl.”
“Don’t be scared/ You better be prepared/ Go on and kiss the girl.”

The song unambiguously encourage men to make physical advances on women without obtaining their clear consent.
Removed from its cushioning context of mermaids, magic, and PG ratings, the message comes across as even more jarring,

Ashley Judd's Talk Protested by Sex Work Activists




- Ashley Judd, who has consistently protested the normalisation of sex work and drawn attention to the prevalence of human trafficking, was protested giving a talk in Manhattan by sex work activists.
- Judd has called for the decriminalisation of sex work but the criminalisation of purchasing sex work.
- After being questioned at the talk, Judd expressed her support for sex workers but maintained her stance, saying that sex work is "paid sexual access", not consensual sex.
- Most of the protesters continued to be unimpressed, though after the talk Judd went up to many of them, speaking to them and shaking their hands.

Hilary Duff confirms there have been conversations about a Lizzie McGuire revival




Professional walker and Younger actress Hilary Duff confirmed to Entertainment Tonight that there have in fact been conversations about reviving her Disney Channel show Lizzie McGuire. “There's been some conversations. It's definitely not a go. I don't want to get everyone wild talking about it,” cautions the “Sparks” singer.

The Disney show was created by Terri Minsky (who recently created her second hit Disney Channel show: Andi Mack) and ran for 65 episodes from 2001 to 2004. The Lizzie McGuire Movie was released in theaters shortly afterwards.

“I mean I love her so much,” says Duff about her character Lizzie. “I think she was so important to girls at an important time in their life. If she could be important to them again at this age, I think that would be amazing.”

The interviewer then asks where Lizzie would be today 15 years later. Duff responds saying, “There's been lots of conversations about that, I'm racking my brain. I don't think she's a mom yet, but she might be getting there soon.”

It’s not yet known if this “possible revival” would return to The Disney Channel by the same creator or go on another network. A return to Disney is highly likely like with Raven-Symoné and her revival “Raven’s Home.”

Belgium's Foreign-Language Oscar Submission, 'Girl,' Is a Danger to the Transgender Community



The near-unanimous praise for the film has been exclusively generated by critics who are not transgender.
The film isn’t just another case of irresponsible casting or harmful stereotypes.
If Girl takes home an Oscar, it would be a drastic step backwards for trans representation in Hollywood.
Directed by Lukas Dhont and co-written by him and Angelo Tigssens, both cisgender men.
A cisgender male actor was cast to play a teenage trans girl.

Steven Knight Scripting ‘The Helicopter Heist’ Thriller For Netflix


The ____ Heist cinematic universe keeps on going.
No actually this has nothing to do with The Hurricane Heist thank god.

For one, this movie is on Netflix! And it stars new Instagrammer Jake Gyllenhaal, and it's based off of a book that came out last year about Swedes who stole 6.5$ million that was never recovered, even though several of the men were captured.

Also, apparently; What secrets does each man hold? Who is the woman who has implicated herself in all of their lives? And who among them holds the key to the wealth they so desperately seek?

Which sounds a lot less interesting than simply "Steal a helicopter, place decoy bombs, and #getmoney".

Knight's latest movie, Serenity, comes out in January.
