Official 'Star Wars: Episode VII' character breakdowns released: Commence theorizing!
42 minutes ago
In the single biggest piece of Star Wars sequel news since five minutes ago, a list of character breakdowns for Star Wars: Episode VII has been sent out to agents, with extremely vague-but-nevertheless-intriguing indications about seven key members of the cast. The list was initially uncovered by Bleeding Cool, and Lucasfilm has confirmed its veracity to EW. Which means that now is the time for the citizens of the internet to conceive Baseless Theories about the direction of the J.J. Abrams-directed, Michael Arndt-scripted sevenquel. Hooray for Baseless Theories! Let’s take a look, shall we?

Is Brad Pitt taking promotional lessons from Justin Timberlake?
2 hours ago
Make a note: Summer 2013 was the time the biggest actors of the ’90s took a cue from the younger kiddos and started really promoting their summer films in a new way.
Call it part of the Timberlake effect. Justin Timberlake pulled out all the stops promoting his album The 20/20 Experience in March, memorably hosting Saturday Night Live, co-hosting a week of Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, heck, he even had a Target-sponsored release party that aired on The CW. Some people rolled their eyes, but the 24/7 attack paid off: The album opened at No. 1, moving 968,000 copies its first week.

'Anchorman 2' trailer: It's kind of a big deal. Let's do a deep dive!
2 hours ago
Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues isn’t the sort of film that normally demands the deep dive treatment. Careful frame-by-frame analyses are generally reserved for big-name adaptations, franchise-extending summer blockbusters, and comic book-based extravaganzas — you know, action movies with rich mythologies and lots of things that go “boom.”
But even if this clip is devoid of space ships, costumed heroes, and fights to the death, it’s chock-full of intriguing new characters, tantalizing plot tidbits, and righteous mustaches — making it the perfect candidate for some good, old-fashioned obsessive scrutiny.
That said, let’s go see if we can make this kitty purr! »

Ed Harris returning to New York stage
3 hours ago
Ed Harris will return to the stage this fall alongside Bill Pullman with the play The Jacksonian, directed by Tony-winner Robert Falls, The New Group company announced Wednesday.
The show takes places in Jackson, Mississippi, in 1964. “When his wife kicks him out, respectable dentist Bill Perch (Ed Harris) moves into the seedy Jacksonian Motel. There, his downward spiral is punctuated by encounters with his teenage daughter, a gold-digging motel employee (Glenne Headly), a treacherous bartender (Bill Pullman), and his now estranged wife (Amy Madigan). Set against the investigation of a recent lynching and climaxing in a crime of passion, The Jacksonian, »

George Lucas has not spoken to J.J. Abrams about the next 'Star Wars'
4 hours ago
When George Lucas handed over the deed for the Star Wars galaxy to Disney, he retained a role as a “creative consultant” on any future iterations of Star Wars-y stuff, including the sequel trilogy currently being prepped. Fans have long debated the meaning of that “creative consultancy,” because the internet was specifically created for fans to analyze every bit of Star Wars news.
However, in a new interview with Access Hollywood — recorded after his win at the Daytime Emmys for the now-canceled Clone Wars series — George Lucas indicates that the extent of his “consulting” is enjoying a well-earned retirement. »

'Franklin & Bash' star Breckin Meyer takes the EW Pop Culture Personality Test -- Video
5 hours ago
Tonight, Franklin & Bash returns for its third season (9 p.m. Et on TNT) with new cast member Heather Locklear, who joins the law firm as name partner Rachel King, in tow. “She’s come in to sort of kick our asses a little bit,” Mark-Paul Gosselaar explains. “Because we became equity partners last year, and because Stanton is sort of on our side of a lot of things, we just needed somebody to push back against the boys. So that’s what she brings this year: She brings somebody that’s not always on our side — and might have ulterior »

Katy Perry says Russell Brand asked for a divorce via text message
8 hours ago
One he sent her on New Year’s Eve, no less! This sort of thing is why the “That Was Way Harsh, Tai” tag was created.
In a revealing cover interview for Vogue’s July issue, the 28-year-old singer discusses her career and her relationship history — paying special attention to her brief marriage to comedian and cable news scourge Russell Brand. “He’s a very smart man, and I was in love with him when I married him,” Perry says of her ex, whom she met in the summer of 2009 and married in the fall of 2010.

Watch Brad Pitt and Jimmy Fallon try a yodel duet -- Video
8 hours ago
Sometimes, when you just need a break from work, it helps to just go to the top of your building and yodel. At least, that’s what Jimmy Fallon and Brad Pitt do.
In this delightful clip from Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, Brad and Jimmy “chat” and then harmonize beautifully.
Watch the video below:
The whole thing is also a reminder that that World War Z opens in theaters this Friday, June 21.

9 hours ago
Looking for the next Ya movie sensation? This week, EW offers an exclusive first look at the making of Divergent, based on Veronica Roth’s dystopian Ya best-seller.

Jimmy Kimmel wants to 'Channing All Over Your Tatum' -- Music Video
18 hours ago
Tonight, Jimmy Kimmel debuted a music video for the vaguely explicit slow jam “(I Wanna) Channing All Over Your Tatum,” featuring White House Down costars Channing Tatum and Jamie Foxx, along with Miley Cyrus, Olivia Munn, and Gabourey Sidibe. Don’t blink or you’ll miss the Matt Damon cameo.
Knowing Tatum insisted he strip to Ginuwine’s euphemistic “Pony” in Magic Mike, this feels particularly right.

Bryan Cranston's Reddit Ama: Ryan Gosling's soft skin, Power Rangers, and sarcasm
22 hours ago
Who is Bryan Cranston to you? Walter White? Heisenberg? Hal? Hammond Druthers? Apparently to at least one participant in Tuesday’s Reddit Ama session, the Breaking Bad star is also just some dude who asked to crash his random table of diners when a Culver City restaurant was too full.
But, the session wasn’t all sweet celebrity encounters. Just take a look at Cranston’s takeaway from the restaurant story. He deflected the silly questions with quippy responses (i.e. the softness of Ryan Gosling’s skin), addressed sincere ones with care, and even made a few people kind »

'Man of Steel': The deleted scene that explains the ending?
18 June 2013 12:57 PM, PDT
Spoiler alert! If you haven’t seen Man of Steel, stop reading now. There have been a lot of heady dissections of the film: Why Superman is the Jesus we wish Jesus would be, and what the film’s ending may or may not get innately wrong about the character. There has also been a lot of inappropriate swooning over star Henry Cavill, who trained his way into looking like the live-action personification of Beauty and the Beast’s Gaston — with a swell cleft in his chin, biceps to spare, and every last inch of him covered with hair. That got us thinking… »

Kanye West 'Yeezus' lyric or Lucille Bluth quote? Take our quiz!
18 June 2013 11:53 AM, PDT
Kanye West loves comparing himself to great talents — Michael Jordan, Steve Jobs, Walt Disney, even Jesus H. Christ. But if you really listen to Yeezus’s endlessly quotable “I Am a God” — subtle, ‘Ye — you’ll realize that West’s true kindred spirit is none other than Lucille Bluth.
Think about it. If Arrested Development’s matriarch ever deigned to write a rap song, don’t you think she, too, would spend the duration commanding a subordinate to “hurry up with my damn massage” and “in a French-ass restaurant/hurry up with my damn croissants”? Like Kanye, she’s a »

Russell Brand outsmarts and out-funnys MSNBC's 'Morning Joe' crew -- Video
18 June 2013 11:36 AM, PDT
Hey, cable news: Don’t mess with Russell Brand.
The funnyman was on MSNBC’s Morning Joe on Monday, and the gaggle of talking heads was a full-on hot mess interviewing the comedian. He was there to promote his upcoming Messiah Complex tour (sounds like someone has been taking naming advice from Jay-z!), but instead, the talk devolved into questioning why they couldn’t understand his accent and openly admitting they knew nothing about him.
Brand remained a jovial sport, despite the complete lack of trying on the part of the anchors. Watch a cringe-worthy clip below, and then join »

James Franco goes Indiegogo route for his planned 'Palo Alto' movies
18 June 2013 10:15 AM, PDT
The day after This Is the End became the biggest comedy of the weekend, James Franco appealed to his fans to help secure financing for the latest of his more personal artistic endeavors. The renaissance man launched an Indiegogo campaign to raise $500,000 so he can adapt 10 short stories from his 2010 collection, Palo Alto, into three feature films. The stories are fictionalized tales that echo Franco’s own “coming of age” experiences growing up in the Bay Area, and he’s selected a quartet of promising Nyu-educated filmmakers to bring them to the big screen. “I’m putting money into these »
