Gosling reteams with "Drive" director Nicolas Winding Refn for the Thai boxing drama "Only God Forgives," also starring Kristin Scott-Thomas. A new trailer and poster also arrived today to tease the mysterious and reportedly ultra-violent film.
Damon co-headlines Steven Soderbergh's Liberace bio-pic "Behind the Candelabra" with Michael Douglas as the famed flamboyant piano man.

Cynthia Nixon turns 46 today, and the out actress is worthy of celebration. She's only one Oscar away from having an Egot, with a strong career in theater, television and film that dates back to 1979 at the age of 12. Here are our favorite Cynthia roles.

As the cynical realist among a group of friends, Cynthia played the level-headed careerwoman-turned-mom with such great prowess, it's almost like she'll never be able to shake the role.

Sunshine, Little Darlings
In one of her first roles on film, a young Cynthia played a teenage hippie who was at the same camp as Kristy McNichol.
