Lupita Nyong’o Talks About Her Character Nakia’s Growth In Black Panther: Wakanda Forever

-
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is only a week away from its worldwide release and as the release of the film nears, speculations are ramping up and the press that all the cast members are doing is providing lots of insights as to what fans can expect from the film. The film will be set after the events of Avengers: Endgame and will feature the death of Chadwick Boseman's character T'Challa, a decision made by Marvel after the death of Chadwick in 2020 because they did not want to recast the role. Hence, all the characters featured in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever will have gone through a lot of change and that is exactly what Lupita Nyong'o talked about in her latest interview with Screen Rant. Nyong'o said that after the 5 years of Avengers: Endgame where half the world population was blipped away and after the death of T'Challa, her character Nakia has grown a lot and a mature version of her will be gracing the screen in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Here is her full quote from the interview: "I think the circumstances of what has happened in the world [have changed]. The last time we saw Nakia was before The Blip and also, of course, before she lost the love of her life, T'Challa. And these things, these world events, and this personal loss, have affected and transformed her. We meet a Nakia that has matured, whose priorities have shifted and sharpened. But the one thing that hasn't changed? She's the one you want to call when you're in trouble." The character Nakia will be a primary focus of the film since she was the love interest of T'Challa from the first Black Panther film. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever will be released in theatres around the world on the 11th of November and will be closing out the 4th phase of content from Marvel. Fans are incredibly excited and the predictions are that the film will be just as if not more successful than its predecessor.

‘I lied to get the part’: Melvyn Hayes on his ‘angry young man’ beginnings – and It Ain’t Half Hot Mum

-
He was tipped to be the next Richard Burton – but ended up as crossdressing Gunner Gloria in the now controversial sitcom. As his breakthrough classic returns to the screen, Hayes looks back One day in 1957, Melvyn Hayes was on the set of a film called Woman in a Dressing Gown when a man sat down next to him. “I was getting paid £5 a day and I’d been on location for three days,” the actor recalls. “All I had to do was walk up to a house and put a newspaper through a letterbox. That was my part. Finished. I said to this bloke, ‘I can’t believe the waste of money on this film. Take me. You could have got a newspaper boy on £1 a day to do what I’m doing.’ Then I said, ‘What do you do then, you lazy bugger?’ And he said, ‘I’m the producer.’” Hayes, now 89, giggles at the memory of the cheek of himself at 23. Back then, £5 a day was a decent whack. His first job in showbiz, in the early 1950s, was as assistant to The Great Masoni, a magician who tasked Hayes with “disappearing twice daily...

The Exorcism review – Russell Crowe v the Devil in cursed horror about a cursed horror

-
The actor plays an actor struggling with a demonically bad film shoot in a well-made yet increasingly messy chiller Like many other dethroned A-listers of his generation, Oscar winner Russell Crowe has found himself a steady career hustling far further down the food chain, headlining B-movies he once would have balked at. The last few years have seen the famed actor crop up in gonzo road rage thriller Unhinged , shepherd the other Hemsworths in war drama Land of Bad , lead the barely released crime thriller Sleeping Dogs earlier this year and become the pope’s exorcist in The Pope’s Exorcist . The latter became something of a surprise hit, first theatrically and then on Netflix, albeit in a rather jokey way, the film most easily remembered for the many memes of Crowe on a scooter. Its success was such that it not only guaranteed a sequel (The Pope’s Exorcist 2 is coming), but it also led to another of his exorcism movies getting saved from streaming hell and being delivered to th...
