If she can dance too, then Sarah Hyland’s a triple threat! The 25-year-old Modern Family star surprised fans on Sunday when she was featured in a Boyce Avenue music video for a cover of The Chainsmokers and Halsey’s hit, “Closer.”

Hyland showed off her impressive vocal abilities on the tune, performing with the indie trio.
“Dream come true singing with these guys,” the ABC star tweeted after the video was released.
This isn’t the first time Hyland has proven she deserves a record deal. Before fans knew her as Haley Dunphy, Hyland starred in the 1999 film adaptation of Annie playing an orphan named Molly and even earned a few key solos.
Et's Katie Krause caught up with Hyland in January where she said she's "not ruling" out releasing her own music.

Boo! It's time for "Oscar Horrors". Each night at 7 we'll look back on a horror-connected Oscar nomination until Halloween.

There are a lot of images that probably flash across one's mind when one thinks of Kathy Bates' Oscar-winning performance in Rob Reiner's film Misery. Images as great and big and terrifying as those mountain peaks that line Annie Wilkes' farmland like prison-bars. Maybe you hear words like "cockadoodie car" call out, or maybe you see Annie swinging that sledgehammer with tears of love tipping her eyelashes and a swell in her heart - I certainly wouldn't blame you; that's a shock that leaves a mark, on Paul Sheldon and the audience both.
But when I think of Misery I immediately think of one scene, every time, and it's the quietest (and for that maybe the most terrifying) moment in the film...

There are endless ways to adapt Shakespeare to film, but it’s safe to say nobody’s doing it today with greater innovation than Matias Piñero. In four of his five spry features to date, the Argentine has depicted contemporary stories of young people facing a variety of challenges intertwined with Shakespearean texts. Piñero weaves the source material through his narratives in clever, unexpected fashion, from the romantic entanglements amid a rehearsal of “Twelfth Night” in “Viola” to the podcast adaptation of “Love’s Labour Lost” in “The Princess of France.” His latest, “Hermia & Helena,” finds a young woman adrift in New York while working on a translation of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.” It’s the director’s first English-language production, but that’s not the only big change in his most intriguing effort to date.

On a night that was marked by tragedy — and occurring mere hours after news broke of the deadly mass shooting in Orlando, Florida — the Tonys provided a much-needed bit of levity. The performers and honorees didn't shy away from speaking about the shocking events of the day, but the overall mood was one of celebration. Part of the credit goes to the master of ceremonies James Corden, best known as the goofy host CBS's Late Late Show, yet still a dorky theater kid at heart; his charming, cheerful persona brought...

Plenty of people accuse the Oscars of rewarding "bait-y," melodramatic schlock too often. Maybe you consider Forrest Gump slightly manipulative or Driving Miss Daisy a tad too quaint. Well, in these ten instances, Oscars went to some of the scariest performances on the silver screen and we'll never forget them no matter how hard we try. Heath Ledger, The Dark Knight Apparently the scariest thing a guy can do is make a pencil disappear. Faye Dunaway, Network Here's Faye Dunaway predicting how TV will go for the next 50 years. Be thankful for Diana Christensen's ratings-driven fury, Glenn Beck. Javier Bardem, No Country for Old Men Anton Chigurh might be the coldest killer ever to grace the silver screen.

25 years ago today, Kathy Bates thoroughly creeped us out when her breakthrough film “Misery” opened in theaters. The film is based on the 1987 psychological horror novel by Stephen King about a famous author who’s rescued from a car crash by his fan (more like fanatic), Annie. Soon the romance novelist (played by James Caan) realizes Annie is less caretaker and more psychotic captor. “Misery” earned Bates an Academy Award for her role as Annie. She’s since returned to the genre that gave her an Oscar with a starring role in Ryan Murphy’s “American Horror Story.” Bates recently showed how much she embraces the legacy of her “Misery” character when she told Entertainment Weekly, “‘I decided when I die, it’s going to be Kathy ‘Misery’ Bates. You know how they do, in People magazine, it’ll be ‘Kathy ‘Misery’ Bates passed away.’” Other notable November 30 happenings in pop culture history.

While I’m not a frequent theater-goer, tell me you’re adapting a Stephen King property, and you’ve got my attention. Misery, which many of you movie lovers know as a work of obsessive art starring James Caan and Kathy Bates, has found itself a home on Broadway for the foreseeable future – which works in the strangest of ways. King’s source is loaded with crazed, domesticated tension, which Rob Reiner was able to blend with a subdued sense of humor, but Will Frears’ theatrical adaptation expands upon the dark comedy of Paul Sheldon’s imprisonment. Scares don’t translate easily to stage, and thankfully Misery isn’t a rigid adaptation, because it actually Adapts.
Misery boils everything down to three characters – Paul Sheldon (Bruce Willis), Annie Wilkes (Laurie Metcalf), and Sheriff Buster (Leon Addison Brown). Sheldon is a famous author who has an accident during a Colorado blizzard,...

Whether you're a fright fanatic, a middle-of-the-row horror fan, or a "someone-dragged-me-here" who barely watches from between terrified, trembling fingers, you've probably noticed an interesting trend: a lot of recent horror movies are based on true stories. At least that's what the filmmakers would have us believe.
The all-too-common "based on a true story" or "based on true events," along with the less reliable "inspired by true events," have become ubiquitous additions to most horror movie marketing campaigns. But this is nothing new. Going all the way back to the "Texas Chainsaw Massacre's" iconic 1974 tagline -- "What happened is true. Now the motion picture that's just as real." -- the truth has always been an important tactic in upping the fear factor for audiences.
If events truly did happen, does that make it more frightening? The recent success of movies like "The Conjuring" (2013), "The Possession" (2012) and "The Haunting in Connecticut" (2009) point to a big "yes,...

The majority of Americans know Sarah Hyland as Haley, the super-hot oldest daughter of Phil and Claire Dunphey on ABC's hit comedy Modern Family. But, we theatre fans remember her as young Jackie Bouvier who would grow to become a Kennedy in the Tony-winning Original Broadway production of Grey Gardens. Of course, the most astute amongst us will point out that she played Molly, the littlest orphan, in the 1999 TV movie version of Annie that starred Victor Garber, Audra McDonald, Kathy Bates, Alan Cumming, Krisitin Cenoweth, and more.

Sure, we have all seen our share of an “Unstable Mabel” in cinema throughout the years. Some, more than others, do stand out in craziness, chaos and curiosity. These furious females in film–at least the ones that we will spotlight in this particular movie column–have something to their off-kilter filter that dares to dig deep on so many psychological levels of frivolity and fury.
In Hath No Fury Like a Woman Scorned: Top 10 Damaged Divas in the Movies we will examine some of the warped women on the big screen that have a sense of demented diva-like dimensions to their cockeyed characterizations. These mistresses of misbehaving all demonstrate various kinds of detachment and dysfunction that capture our puzzling imaginations.

When it was announced in March that Stephen King's classic horror novel Misery was getting the Broadway treatment, Elizabeth Marvel was intended to play the juicy role of number-one fan and number-one torturous motivator Annie Wilkes on stage. Due to House of Cards commitments, however, Marvel has left the project and Laurie Metcalf has joined it in her place.
Variety reports that Laurie Metcalf will play Annie Wilkes in the Misery Broadway play. Widely known for her stellar turn as Jackie Harris on Roseanne in addition to a plethora of other TV and film credits, Metcalf is perhaps best known to horror fans for her intense, unflinching portrayal as Mrs. Loomis in Scream 2.
As Wilkes, Metcalf will inflict pain on author Paul Sheldon, played by Bruce Willis in his Broadway debut. Metcalf is no stranger to the stage, having performed both off Broadway in Domesticated and on Broadway in The Other Place.

Number one fans can be flattering, but Annie Wilkes comes on a little too strong, and Bruce Willis is about to find out just how strong when he makes his Broadway debut in Warner Bros. Theatre Ventures' stage adaptation of one of Stephen King's most chilling novels: Misery.

Among the bonuses are a commentary track, several behind-the-scenes featurettes, and a look at the cast.
Not only was this a really great movie (and I’m no huge musical fan), but it’s one that, like most things Disney, is going to go into heavy rotation.

First thing’s first: Taylor Swift is amazing. Her music is dope, she’s good to her friends, good to her fans, and Madonna approves. She might even be on HBO Girls. Please don’t get it twisted — we love Taylor Swift! There’s proof of that. Lots of proof. Literally all the proof.
But like Taylor Swift we have to keep it real and be honest — a lot of people think her newest music video, directed by a friend, starring Sarah Hyland’s new beau, baring uncanny resemblance to the True Detective opening, is a little… boring.

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) presented the 72nd Annual Golden Globe Awards on Sunday. The awards show was hosted by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler for a third year, and George Clooney was presented with the Cecil B. DeMille Award. "Boyhood" ended up taking home the trophy for the best film in the drama category. The movie also won for best supporting actress (Patricia Arquette) and best director (Richard Linklater). On the comedy/musical side, "The Grand Budapest Hotel" won the top prize, beating "Birdman," which many thought would be the winner. "The Grand Budapest Hotel" didn't win in any other categories.

Big night for Boyhood as it adds a Best Picture (Drama) win to its precursor repertoire at the 2015 Golden Globe Awards not to mention a win for Best Director (Richard Linklater) and Best Supporting Actress (Patricia Arquette). The Globes also pretty much paved the way for a Julianne Moore (Still Alice) win at the Oscars along with the inevitable Supporting Actor win for J.K. Simmons (Whiplash and Michael Keaton (Birdman) for Best Actor. There were, however, some interesting kinks in the road. Even though I have Birdman as my #1 film of 2014, it was great seeing The Grand Budapest Hotel take home Best Picture (Comedy/Musical) and while Birdman didn't take home that award, it won for Best Screenplay, which adds a little intrigue to the Best Original Screenplay race. How to Train Your Dragon 2 winning Best Animated Feature over The Lego Movie was a bit of a surprise and...

Whenever I hear myself complaining loudly about the December glut I know I will have a comeuppance when I see the box office chart and notice once again that everything makes a ton of money during the Christmas and New Years.
Everything that opens wide that is. It's still an awfully tough time to open an indie on a few screens or a foreign film (though distributors always try) as evidence by A Most Violent Year, Two Days One Night and Leviathan which need far more publicity than they can reasonably manage when everyone is talking about the behemoths like all-star musical and Angelina Jolie's epic and so on. Those films are at $300,000, $109,000 and $79,000 respectively.
Top Sixteen
01 Hobbit 3 $21.9 New (cum. $220.7) Five Beautiful Armies
02 Into The Woods $19 (cum. $91.2) Interview, Review
03 Unbroken $18.3 (cum. $87.8) Interview
04 Woman In Black 2 New $15.1
05 Night At The Museum 3 $14.4 (cum. $89.7)
06 Annie $11.4 (cum. $72.6)
07 Imitation Game $8.1 (cum. $30.8) Review, second take

3Rd Update, Monday, 5:28 Pm: Most of the major studios have not reported their Monday actuals, as is customary due to the holidays. Warner Bros, Sony and Relativity are still off this week, which means Rentrak won’t issue a final report until January 5. What we do know, though, is that Disney’s Into The Woods beat Universal’s Unbroken by the hair of its chinny-chin-chin over the Christmas Week frame.
Some distribs marveled yesterday why Into The Woods, a PG film, didn’t beat Unbroken, which is largely adult-driven. Woods wound up posting a better Sunday thanks to matinees of $8.2M vs. Unbroken‘s $7.5M. Nonetheless, both films have driven a ton of biz to the year-end box office, with each exceeding $46M in their four-day openings. Rentrak currently sees the total weekend at $208.9M, still up 6% over last year’s comparable frame of $196.9M. The 2014 B.O. is at $10.22B,...

Broadway musicals are no lock to translate into box office success at the movies, but Disney’s star-laden adaptation of Stephen Sondheim’s “Into the Woods” did just that over the holiday weekend — better than any movie-musical ever has.
“Into the Woods” opened on Christmas Day and wound up edging “Unbroken” to finish second to “The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies” with $46.1 million over the long weekend. That included $31 million between Friday and Sunday, giving it the best opening ever for a movie adaptation of a Broadway musical, ahead of the $27 million 2008 debut of “Mamma Mia!,” which went...

The final weekend of 2014 saw a familiar name hold the top spot at the weekend box office charts, as the final installment of Peter Jackson’s Hobbit trilogy, The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, won the spot for a second straight weekend. The film earned $41.4 million over the weekend, which was enough to beat out newcomers Unbroken and Into the Woods, as the second directorial effort of Angelina Jolie and the Rob Marshall adaptation of the famous Sondheim musical ended up in second and third place, respectively. It was a tight race between the two, as Unbroken finished with $31.7 million, while Into the Woods ended the weekend with $31 million.
Last week’s second and third place finishers, Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb and Annie, moved down two notches to make way for the newcomers, as the third entry in the franchise and the musical rounded out the top five.

The four-day Christmas holiday box office frame was certainly more exciting than anyone expected. After "Unbroken" and "Into the Woods" surprised to claim the top two spots on Christmas day, a certain Middle Earth franchise flexed its muscles for the rest of the weekend. Peter Jackson's "The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies" returned to the top spot for the ninth time in the past 10 days with $41.4 million over the three-day frame and $168.5 million to date. The Warner Bros. and MGM release is outperforming the last installment, "The Desolation of Smaug," and is slightly behind the first chapter, "An Unexpected Journey." Globally, "Battle" has taken in an impressive $573.6 million so far. "Unbroken" took the second slot with $31.7 million for the weekend and $47.3 million since Thursday. Despite mixed to negative reviews the Angelina Jolie directed biopic is on track to earn $100 million by the end of next weekend. "Into the Woods...

Manuel here offering up the sequel to last week’s Battle of the Holiday Releases you didn’t know you needed. Those Middle Earth dwellers are nothing if not resilient warriors and thus it comes as no surprise that The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies held on to #1 for the second week in a row despite some competition from a singing witch and a martyred soldier, both proving quite the challengers. That bodes well for the awards prospects for Rob Marshall’s big screen adaptation of Into the Woods and Angelina Jolie’s uplifting war drama Unbroken. Box office alone does not win awards (or nominations) but it surely doesn’t hurt. It was a busy Christmas week -- even embattled and corporate freedom of speech poster boy The Interview made a dent in a little over 300 screens.

Despite mixed to negative reviews the Angelina Jolie directed biopic is on track to earn over $45 million by Sunday. "Into the Woods" barely missed out remaining in second place but made due with another $12.2 million and $27.2 million in just 48 hours.

Chicago – Neither Hollywood nor purely Broadway, Disney’s big-screen adaptation of the Stephen Sondheim musical “Into the Woods” finds a charming home on Hollyway.
Even if you’re not a “musical kind of person,” I challenge you not to want to sing along to the catchy tunes or laugh at the intentionally overdramatic comedy.
Rating: 3.5/5.0
Meryl Streep delivers yet another memorably kooky performance as the Witch while Johnny Depp is in his wheelhouse once again as Little Red Riding Hood’s Wolf on the way to grandma’s treehouse. Anna Kendrick also plays someone you’d expect: a runaway almost bride known as Cinderella who evolves from rags to riches and wants the prince but fears the royalty.
But the standouts are the 13-year-old Lilla Crawford – who has played “Annie” and “Billy Elliot” on Broadway – and a surprising Chris Pine. Pine is the only non-safe casting decision – where it feels...

Today we bring you something rare and fun. Via Andrea McArdle and the Original Broadway Cast of Annie, is a clip from an Television Special that aired on NBC, in 1977, the year the musical opened on Broadway at the Alvin Theatre and became a bonafide Smash The Annie Christmas Special was not particularly good, but was capitalizing on the name of the show that suddenly everyone was talking about.
