Exclusive: Cinema Guild has picked up U.S. rights to the documentary Sansón and Me, directed by Rodrigo Reyes (499), which won Best Film at Sheffield DocFest in June after world premiering in Tribeca. The film has been slated for release in theaters next year, beginning with a run at the Brooklyn Academy of Music on March 3.
Reyes’ latest feature emerged from his day job as a Spanish criminal interpreter in a small town in California, through which he met a young man named Sansón, an undocumented Mexican immigrant who was sentenced to life in prison without parole. With no permission to interview him, Sansón and Reyes worked together over the course of a decade, using hundreds of letters as inspiration for recreations of Sansón’s childhood — featuring members of his own family. The result is a vibrant portrait of a friendship navigating immigration and the depths of the criminal justice...

Danielle Spencer has Russell Crowe fans doing a double take after posting a photo of their sons. While the Australian actress and the Oscar winner, who officially divorced in 2018, tend to keep their kids Charles Spencer Crowe, 17, and Tennyson Spencer Crowe, 14, out of the public eye, Danielle recently made an exception. In honor of Mother's Day earlier this month, Danielle took to social media to share a snap with the duo's teenage boys. "Here I was telling the boys to smile - and then I didn't. Ah well," she captioned the May 9 post. "Have had a lovely Mother's Day. Hope all the mums out there have been spoilt today." After seeing the photo,...

Is that you, Russell Crowe?! The Australian actor used to be one of the most handsome in Hollywood, but lately he looks totally unrecognizable thanks to his weight gain and huge beard. The actor has stepped out a lot over the past few months and many think the 54-year-old's scruffy look has a lot to do with the fact that he and his rumored flame Terri Irwin don't see much of each other anymore. "They spent so much time together and were inseparable, so it's certainly strange they haven't been seen together for a while," a source told Woman's Day. "It looks like Russell may have been dumped by Terri – and if that's happened he'll be heartbroken for sure." "That could explain why he's not looking his best these days. Obviously, people age but Russ is a completely different man now, physically and mentally," the source added. "It was like...

He's offically back on the market! Five years after first separating from now-ex-wife Danielle Spencer, Russell Crowe has finalized his divorce from the Austrailian actress. "In other news... yesterday, April 9, 2018 at 12:30 p.m. Eastern Daylight time (Aus)... I officially became divorced. Thank you linesman. Thank you ball boys," the 54-year-old announced on Twitter. The two tied the knot back in April 2003 after meeting on the set of the 1990 film The Crossing, in which they starred opposite each other as lovers. Their relationship lasted nine years before they called it quits in October 2012, but their marriage legally spanned 15 years. They share two children together, 14-year-old Charles Spencer Crowe and 11-year-old Tennyson Spencer Crowe. Russell Crowe and then-wife Danielle Spencer in 2011.

Not bad for less than a day's work and only a decade of memories! More than five years after splitting from his wife of nine years, Russell Crowe is almost officially divorced, but before all that's said and done, the Aussie actor's pulled an unusual move to mark the end of his marriage—with an auction called "The Art of Divorce." Turns out that one of the most popular items up for auction was a leather jock strap from his 2005 film, Cinderella Man, which went for $7,000. In addition to the high-priced support wear, the superstar sold off some of the treasures, including art, furniture and keepsakes from his time with soon-to-be ex-wife Danielle Spencer. On April...

If you’re a Russell Crowe fan, a movie memorabilia collector or just someone who supports the idea of cleaning out the storage bin after a divorce, we hope you didn’t miss the “Gladiator” star’s auction.
Crowe sold off 227 items Saturday at Sotheby’s Australia in Sydney at an auction titled “The Art of Divorce.” Although his divorce from Danielle Spencer was last year, today would have been the couple’s 15th wedding anniversary.
Among the eclectic assortment of items were life-size prop horses; wardrobe from “Gladiator,” including a cod piece, a pair of leather wrist cuffs and torso body armor; a trove of guitars; his entire Capt. Jack Aubrey outfit from “Master and Commander”; neo-Nazi boots from the 1992 movie “Romper Stomper,” and a 2008 custom-made motorcycle.

While at first it may not seem like Oscar winner Russell Crowe and Vanderpump Rules' Scheana Shay would have a lot in common, there's actually a surprising connection between the two stars. Both Russell and Scheana have had relationships and breakups that have been very public and played out in the press. Russell and Danielle Spencer called it quits in 2012, though he admitted in 2015 that the duo hadn't legally split up and he was still in love with her, it was reported just months ago that the duo had finalized their divorce. Now, the 53-year-old actor has revealed that he's having a divorce auction, a similar idea to Scheana's post-split business venture, "Divorce Closet." ...

In his recent Charlie Rose interview, Crowe is overweight, grieving the loss of his marriage, confessing and blaming his workaholism, and that he wants to get back with his estranged wife Danielle Spencer. He also reveals why he wants his directing career to work: he can control where he works and be with his kids. Crowe says that he has to star in the films he directs if he's going to get the budgets he wants, and he loves doing it. Crowe's debut feature "The Water Diviner" won three Australian Film Awards including Best Film and opened spottily stateside last weekend to solid reviews. It's about a father seeking to find two sons lost in the battle of Gallipoli, which was the first Australian war fought on the nation's own behalf. He bristles when Charlie reads a review of his performance that calls him "thin-skinned." "Would I still be here?...

They never legally divorced, so the Gladiator star is praying that it will work out in the end. While appearing on CBS This Morning, Crowe opened up to Charlie Rose about the state of his marriage and how not wearing a wedding ring has left him feeling unsure of himself.

After nine years of marriage and two kids together, it's no wonder the A Beautiful Mind actor still feels "connected" to his wife. Although he isn't sure of what's to come for...

Russell Crowe's million+ Twitter followers received quite the surprise yesterday when a photo of a naked woman's nether parts appeared in the actor's feed -- a far cry from Crowe's typical innocuous tweets about his daily workouts.
Once Crowe realized that he'd been hacked, he removed the offending/titillating post and issued a quick apology: "Hey, I don't know what that was," the "Man of Steel" star wrote. "Just having a chat with Dani when the phone went ballistic. Sorry, gone."
"Dani" is his estranged wife, Danielle Spencer, who's on a trip to L.A. with Crowe and their two sons, Charles and Tennyson. The family was recently spotted out to dinner at the Polo Lounge in Beverly Hills on June 27.
Crowe's Twitter last made headlines in early March, when he linked to a video of what he believed was a UFO sighting. No hacker was to blame for that one.

Falling victim like so many other celebrities, Russell Crowe's Twitter account was reportedly hacked.
On Tuesday (July 2), a photo of a naked woman apparently made it's way onto the "Gladiator" actor's feed for a brief time before being quickly deleted.
According to reports, the picture displayed the lower regions of a female with the caption, "hairstyle worn by some Orthodox Jewish men."
However, the Oscar-winner was supposedly on vacation with his children and estranged wife Danielle Spencer when the incident happened.
Explaining that he had nothing to do with the scandal, Crowe tweeted, "Hey, I don’t know what that was. Just having a chat with Dani when the phone went ballistic. Sorry, gone.”
Russell's team later confirmed that the 49-year-old's account was indeed hacked and that the actor had no part in the photo being released.

Just who is Russell Crowe dating? Despite reports to the contrary, the "Les Miserables" star says it's not Dita Von Teese.
"@DitaVonTeese is brave, smart, sweet and elegant. She is a friend of mine. Who wouldn't want friends like that? Friends, not lovers," he tweeted.
That's his explanation for why The New York Post claims the couple spent a "romantic couple's massage" together in December at the Four Seasons Hotel in NYC. The outlet also referenced the fact Crowe had been reposting some of von Teese's tweets, including, "Dressage. Was measured for bespoke blk patent boots w/my name stamped on the heel . . . But under whose bed did I leave my Hermes riding crop?" and "Giving airport security a lesson in garter belts this morning."
Crowe recently separated from his wife since 2003, Danielle Spencer. Von Teese had formerly been married to Marilyn Manson.

Russell Crowe and wife of nine years, Danielle Spencer, may have all but confirmed a separation back in October, but the Oscar winner is not giving up yet.
