In the "Star Trek" episode "The Enemy Within", Captain Kirk (William Shatner) beams up from the planet Alpha 177 covered in a mysterious magnetic dust. Unbeknownst to any of the Enterprise crew, the dust has fouled up the transporter and created a second Kirk inside its memory buffer. After Kirk leaves the room, the second Kirk materializes ... but displays an altered personality. It seems that Kirk has been bifurcated into a gentle version of himself and a cruel, aggressive version of himself. For much of "The Enemy Within," the Evil Kirk stalks around the halls of the U.S.S. Enterprise, startling the crew and accosting Yeoman Rand (Grace Lee Whitney). Gentle Kirk soon realizes that he needs his aggression back in order to be whole. Eventually, the two Kirks confront one another.

What does the future hold for Paramount Global? The odds of a seismic M&a event seem to be increasing: Private-equity firm Apollo Global has reportedly offered $11 billion for Paramount’s Hollywood studios. Short of carving up the “mountain of entertainment,” as the Paramount+ tagline boasts, analysts say the overture could drive up bidding for the entirety of Paramount Global — which is what Shari Redstone, who owns a controlling stake in the media conglomerate, is understood to prefer.
Given that backdrop, let’s consider what Paramount Global comprises — and the potential effect of selling it off in its entirety or in pieces. As it stands, Paramount Global, led by CEO Bob Bakish, is made up of three segments: filmed entertainment, TV media and direct-to-consumer streaming.
The company’s filmed entertainment unit, which includes Paramount Pictures, is its smallest, representing 10% of overall revenue in 2023. Last year, the segment generated revenue of...

Paramount has a new offer on the table, but Shari Redstone might not even get out of bed for this one. The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday that private equity firm Apollo Global Management (also an investor in “Dune” studio Legendary Entertainment) offered Paramount Global $11 billion for its film and TV studio.
The specifics of exactly which assets Apollo wants to buy (and not buy) are unclear, but the film and TV studios would include Paramount Pictures and the production capabilities at networks like CBS and MTV. Linear networks would stay behind, as well as distribution platforms like Paramount+ and BET+.
Also unknown is if the iconic Paramount lot is part of the offer, which houses so much of Paramount’s studio production. When reached by IndieWire, a Paramount Global rep had no comment. Reps for Apollo did not return a request for comment.

However, his marriage with Katie Holmes has to be the one that stands out as they went from having the perfect happily ever after to going right back to square one.
Tom Cruise in a still from Edge of Tomorrow
Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes decided to put an end to their marriage after six years of tying the knot. Now the question was, what would happen to Suri, their daughter? Well, Katie Holmes was granted full custody of their daughter and Tom Cruise allegedly hasn’t met his daughter for years. Despite this, the actor is paying a great amount of child support for Suri Cruise but now that she’s soon going to be turning eighteen, he no longer will have to do so.

It appears Shari Redstone remains firmly opposed to breaking up Paramount Global.
Redstone, president of National Amusements Inc. — the controlling shareholder of Paramount Global — was “unconvinced” by Apollo Global Management’s $11 billion offer to buy Paramount’s film and TV studio, the Financial Times reported, citing anonymous sources. The reported price tag would be a premium over the market cap of the entire company. Instead, per the Ft report, Redstone is preferring to continue negotiating a deal with Skydance’s David Ellison, in partnership with RedBird Capital and Tencent, to sell Nai (and then merge Skydance with Paramount Global).
Shares of Paramount Global closed down 5.5% Thursday following the Ft’s report, amid an uptick in broader market indexes. That came after the stock popped nearly 12% following the Wall Street Journal’s report that Apollo had made an $11 billion offer to acquire Paramount Pictures and the Paramount TV studios group.

Paramount will have to seriously consider this latest bid to purchase some of its assets.
There’s seemingly too much smoke around Paramount and its discussions with other companies regarding mergers and acquisitions for it not to eventually lead to some fire. The Wall Street Journal is stoking those flames yet again by reporting that Apollo Global Management is offering $11 billion to acquire Paramount’s TV and movie studio, which is more than the market capitalization of the entire Paramount Global company, which also includes multiple TV channels, merchandising, and more.
Key Details: Apollo’s interest in Paramount was first reported earlier in March. Acquiring just Paramount’s studios would allow Apollo to sidestep regulatory concerns regarding CBS. Paramount is still mulling an offer from David Ellison of Skydance Media, as well. Get 30 Days Free $5.99+ / month paramountplus.com

Apollo Global Management, a major private-equity firm, has submitted an $11 billion bid to acquire Paramount Pictures and the Paramount TV studios group, according to a published report.
The Wall Street Journal, citing anonymous sources, reported that Apollo Global offered $11 billion for Paramount Global’s film and TV studio business. That would apparently not include CBS, Paramount Global’s cable networks like BET, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon and MTV, or the streaming business unit that includes Paramount+ and Pluto TV.
Apollo’s reported offer for Paramount’s studio operations is greater than the market capitalization of Paramount Global in its entirety ($7.3 billion as of March 19). The proposed transaction may include some assumption of Paramount Global’s long-term debt (which stood at $14.6 billion at the end of 2023).
Shares of Paramount Global closed up 11.8% Wednesday on the Journal report, to $12.51/per share, boosting its market cap to nearly $8.7 billion. The stock remains well below its 52-week high of $24/share.

George Miller recast the role of Furiosa in the Mad Max film of the same name – and he’s been explaining why he didn’t go down the digital de-ageing route.
When George Miller began to draw up plans to bring Furiosa to life, he faced a difficult decision. After all, the character who would be at the heart of the Mad Max: Fury Road prequel was portrayed by Charlize Theron in the 2015 film, and the actor was so brilliant as the hardened warrior that removing her from the prequel risked losing much of what worked about the character.
So what to do? Miller has been chatting with Empire, talking about considering applying digital de-ageing tools to Charlize Theron in the film so she could play a younger version of herself. He wouldn’t be the first filmmaker to try this approach across a whole film, but when he looked...

Plenty of classic TV shows have gotten the big-screen reboot treatment — among them Get Smart, 21 Jump Street, Baywatch, and, of course, Mission: Impossible. Bullet Train filmmaker and John Wick co-director David Leitch hopes to bring a new vision to the ‘80s series The Fall Guy with Ryan Gosling as its lead, but despite the best efforts of everyone involved, it ends up being just another underwhelming studio action flick.
In the film, Gosling plays a stuntman who gets pulled out of retirement to track down the missing star of his ex-girlfriend’s new film, only to be thrown into a complex web of conspiracies. With his background being in stunts, it’s understandable what Leitch likely saw in Drew Pearce and Glen A. Lawson’s script. Unfortunately, this potential is largely squandered on a middling entry to the genre.

The King of Monsters finally has his share of Oscars glory.
In an ironic triumph of small over large, Japanese monster movie sensation Godzilla Minus One — which was made for only about $15 million — beat out four big-budget Hollywood tentpoles to win the best visual effects category. It’s the first time in decades that a non-u.S. studio film has won the category. Despite its deep influence on the history of visual effects in cinema, this year was the first time in the Godzilla franchise’s seven-decade history that it was nominated for an Oscar.
Godzilla Minus One was written and directed by Takashi Yamazaki, who also headed up the film’s VFX team, which included Kiyoko Shibuya, Masaki Takahashi and Tatsuji Nojima. The team is now Japan’s first-ever winner of the best visual effects Oscar. In another rarity, a director winning the category has only occurred once before...

The team behind Godzilla Minus One brought their beloved character with them to the 2024 Oscars. The group walked the red carpet in shoes adorned with Godzilla sculptures gripping the heels, and holding figurines of the fictional monster inside the theater.
The Oscars red carpet isn’t the first place the figurines have traveled this awards season. They were first seen in a video of the group learning they earned a nomination, and later again at the Oscar nominees luncheon last month.

Rebecca Ferguson had quite the tale to tell while promoting Dune: Part Two.
The actress, who returns to Arrakis for the sequel, sat down with Northern Ireland’s U105 radio station to discuss Denis Villeneuve’s film. During the conversation, she shared a funny story she had just heard about her 5-year-old daughter that involved an Nsfw Timothée Chalamet greeting card.
“It’s Valentine’s Day, right?” she began. “I don’t even know if you can show this or whatever, and my daughter is in a shop with my husband. I was told this today. … She goes up to a card, and she goes, ‘This is perfect for Mommy.'”
She continued, “It’s a picture of Timothée, who she thought was her dad, because it looks like my husband, and it says, ‘Will you Wonka my Willy?’ … She doesn’t get it. She’s like, ‘Oh it’s Willy Wonka.

Christopher Nolan may be in line for Oscar gold this Sunday, but he’s already swimming in gold thanks to a reportedly lucrative deal for “Oppenheimer.”
According to a report in Forbes, Nolan made an estimated $72 million, pre-taxes, on the enormous success of “Oppenheimer.” They’re also suggesting that’s the net total, and that he really earned $85 million but is subtracting the amount he would pay to his agents and lawyers. That is a staggering number and near unheard of in Hollywood except for the absolute top echelon of movie stars and filmmakers.
Forbes reported that Universal as part of its deal to win the rights to “Oppenheimer” agreed to give Nolan 15 percent of first-dollar gross on the film, which means he gets a share of everything the movie earns even before the studio recoups its expenses. They claim he originally asked for 20 percent, but settled on 15, and the...

It’s no secret that Dune: Part Two has become one of 2024’s biggest hits so far. Starring Rebecca Ferguson, Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya, and other A-listers, Denis Villeneuve’s magnum opus is currently all over the news. Even before the film hit the theatres, the actors have been packed with interviews and red-carpet events.
Rebecca Ferguson as Lady Jessica in Dune
Recalling one such interview with Rebecca Ferguson, where the actress shared a hilarious story about how her daughter, fans seemingly lost their minds. According to the actress, her daughter once mistook Timothée Chalamet for her dad, after noticing him on a dirty Willy Wonka-themed Valentine’s Day card. Curious to know more, fans finally tracked it down on X. But hold on, the card is more horrifying than expected.

Each week we highlight the noteworthy titles that have recently hit streaming platforms in the United States. Check out this week’s selections below and past round-ups here.
Actors (Betsey Brown)
With its central storyline revolving around a male actor (Peter Vack) adopting a phony trans identity in order to secure roles, Betsey Brown’s Actors is engineered to court controversy. But the film is more than empty provocation. Actors is about the inherent vulnerability it takes to be a working actor, and we catch glimpses of the ceaseless cycle of auditions and self-tapes listed as private on Vimeo. This includes one very funny early sequence in which Brown’s mother and father (played by her actual parents) walk her through a self-tape for a lewd part. It’s a role Brown knows she has little chance at landing, so why go through with the humiliation? Because born performers have no choice.

Robert Downey Jr is one of the most respected and talented actors in Hollywood. Though he gained God-like status for his work as Iron Man, his recent appearance in Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer has helped him gain acclaim outside of his work in the MCU. While the actor has now made a reputation for himself as a man of great admiration, his public image wasn’t always this clean.
Robert Downey Jr. as Lewis Strauss in Oppenheimer
Downey famously hit rock bottom at a very young age and his life trajectory has been one to inspire many. However, his experiences from the past are rarely positive. In a very dark young adult life, there are a few moments that bring smiles to his fans’ faces. The perfect example would be his first meeting with one of the biggest stars in the world, Tom Cruise.

Hot off the heels of ‘Dune: Part Two’ success, Ferguson is set to team up with Chris Pratt in a new thriller titled ‘Mercy.’ This Amazon MGM Studios production promises to be a gripping sci-fi tale set in a future where crime rates have skyrocketed.
In ‘Mercy,’ Pratt plays a detective caught up in a whirlwind of accusations over a violent crime. The challenge? He must clear his name. The storyline teases a suspense-filled journey, something we’re all looking forward to. Directed by Timur Bekmambetov, known for the 2016 remake of ‘Ben-Hur,’ and penned by Marco van Belle, the project has a mixed team behind it (‘Ben-Hur’ was pretty bad). Still, with Charles Roven, a name recently nominated for an Oscar for ‘Oppenheimer,’ leading the production, expectations are high.

Production on Mission: Impossible 8 has restarted in the UK, with star Tom Cruise once again throwing himself into the practical stunt work.
We’ve heard stories of late that Tom Cruise is looking to make a career swerve in the not too distant future with the plan being to start interspersing his usual action roles with more dramatic parts. We’ve already heard that Cruise will be working with Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu on a future project, and there are rumours linking him with Quentin Tarantino’s next film too.
That’s all in the future though, and as of right now, we’d imagine that all of Cruise’s focus is on the next Mission: Impossible film which has finally got back into production after the actors’ strike last year threw the film’s complicated shooting schedule into disarray. Even better, it’s shooting in the UK, which is a...

In a year when the Barbenheimer phenomenon dominated the industry, it was Adam Sandler who made the most money among Hollywood A-listers in 2023. The Sandman did not have any theatrical releases in 2023. However, his million-dollar Netflix deal spawned two live-action films and one animated film this year. Along with these movies, Sandler had a busy time doing stand-up comedy shows across the U.S. Adam Sandler earned $73 million from all these projects in 2023.

Included among the 17 individuals in this lineup are 13 first-timers who constitute the category’s largest newcomer rate since the minimum annual amount of nominated films was set at five in 2011. This vast majority comprises all four “Godzilla Minus One” team members, dual contender Simone Coco (“Mission: Impossible” and “Napoleon”), three artists from “The Creator”, two from “Guardians of the Galaxy” (Theo Bialek and Alexis Wajsbrot), two more from “Mission: Impossible” (Jeff Sutherland and Alex Wuttke), and one more from “Napoleon” (Luc-Ewen Martin-Fenouillet).

The films vying for the 2024 Best Sound Oscar are “The Creator,” “Maestro,” “Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One,” “Oppenheimer,” and “The Zone of Interest.” Our current odds indicate that “Oppenheimer” (31/10) will prevail, followed in order of likelihood by “The Zone of Interest” (37/10), “Maestro” (9/2), “Mission: Impossible” (9/2), and “The Creator” (9/2).
This year’s Best Sound award will be the fourth handed out since the former Best Sound Editing and Best Sound Mixing categories were consolidated ahead of the 93rd Oscars. The 17 craftspeople involved in this race have collectively amassed 70 previous nominations and 16 wins for their audio work, with the largest share of those bids (30%) belonging to Kevin O’Connell (“Oppenheimer”). With an Oscars resume dating back to 1984, he stands as one of this lineup’s nine returning champions, having memorably broken his unprecedented losing streak on his 21st bid for “Hacksaw Ridge” (2017).

Josh Brolin has cemented an indelible legacy in the television and film industry. Having followed his father, James Brolin’s footsteps, he began acting in the mid-1980s with small television roles and began to venture his steps into the film industry.
His breakout role eventually happened in 2007 when he portrayed Llewelyn Moss’s role in No Country for Old Men. Not only did that role catapult him to fame but also opened new doors in the acting world.
Josh Brolin as Warmaster Gurney Halleck in Dune
In a recent Instagram reel, he gave a house tour to his fans and recounted his 1980s memories especially when he got mocked by his Gangster Squad co-star, Sean Penn and the reason is indirectly Tom Cruise!

Over the past three decades, few filmmakers have mastered their craft better than David Fincher. With a fastidious eye for framing and a deep focus on directorial details, Fincher has fashioned some of the most precisely orchestrated cinematic outings since his big screen debut in 1992. Yet, for most avid cinephiles and casual movie fans alike, Fincher will almost always be most associated with Se7en and Fight Club in the 90s and perhaps The Social Network and Gone Girl in the 2010s. If that’s an accurate assessment, then it begs the question – what is David Fincher’s all-time most underrated movie? While the recent release of The Killer is a worthy candidate, and a serious case can be made for Zodiac, The Game continues to be a criminally unheralded psychological thriller that, upon repeat viewings, toys and torments the audience with devious plotting and duplicitous tricks as only Fincher can forge.

"This summer - action has a new name." Magnolia Pictures has unveiled a very short teaser trailer for the Sundance 2024 hit film Thelma, from writer / director Josh Margolin. The film didn't win any awards, but it did win over the hearts of many Sundance viewers as one of the best of the fest. Inspired by a real-life experience of Margolin's own grandmother, Thelma puts a clever spin on movies like Mission: Impossible, shining the spotlight on an elderly grandmother as an unlikely action hero. Yes, she kicks some serious ass. With infectious humor, Margolin employs the familiar tropes of the action genre in hilarious, age-appropriate ways to tackle aging with agency. In the first leading film role of her 70-year career, June Squibb portrays the strong-willed Thelma with grit and determination, demonstrating that she is more than capable of taking care of business. In addition to Squibb kicking butt as Thelma,...

In early 2021, Megan Ellison emerged from a self-imposed Hollywood exile and did something she hadn’t done in over a year: She signed on to back a movie, Nimona. There was a time when this would not have been remarkable, when Ellison’s Annapurna Pictures was producing five films a year and she was considered the industry’s own Medici, the premier patron of prestige cinema. But Ellison had backed away from Hollywood in 2019 after a series of missteps and become elusive even to some of her own executives. When her former distribution chief, Erik Lomis, asked her whether she wanted to look at some reels of Nimona, which was about to get axed in Disney’s closure of Blue Sky Animation, “I wasn’t really engaging in new film projects at the time,” Ellison said, answering THR’s questions by email. “But being curious, I said yes.”
