Hollywood star Matt Damon has revealed that he knew that media mogul Harvey Weinstein had sexually harassed Gwyneth Paltrow. The 47-year-old star had initially dismissed the reports that he knew about the disgraced producer's misconduct towards women when the scandal first broke out. In an appearance on "Good Morning America", Damon said that he learned Weinstein had abused Paltrow from his friend Ben Affleck, who was in a relationship with her. "I knew the story about Gwyneth from Ben because he was with her after Brad, so I knew that story. But I was working with Gwyneth with Harvey on 'Ripley'. I never talked to Gwyneth about it. Ben told me. "I knew that they had come to whatever agreement or understanding that they had come to. She had handled it and she was the first lady of Miramax. He treated her incredibly respectfully. Always," the actor said. Damon, however, said that Weinstein's womanising nature was known to the in...

Kit Harington cried after reading the script for the final episode of Game of Thrones. The 30-year-old actor plays Jon Snow on the hit HBO programme, and during an appearance on the U.K.'s The One Show on Friday (20Oct17), he shared that he and his castmates wept at a recent read-through. "We had a read-through last week in fact, so I know everything now," Harington said, poking fun at his character famously being told "You know nothing", in an episode. "I cried at the end. You have to remember that eight years of it - no one really cares about it more than us." The hit fantasy series, which also stars Lena Headey, Peter Dinklage, and Emilia Clarke, will conclude at the end of season eight, which is due to premiere in either 2018 or 2019. "It's been an institution longer than any other institution I've been in. School, drama school, anything. I get a bit weepy thinking about it. It's going to be a strange year saying go...

Conceived as a vibrant celebration of Mexican culture, writer-director  Lee Unkrich ’s “ Coco ” is the 19th feature from  Pixar  Animation Studios and the first to seriously deal with the deficit of nonwhite characters in its films — so far limited to super-sidekick Frozone in “The Incredibles,” tagalong Russell in “Up” and Mindy Kaling’s green-skinned Disgust in “Inside Out.” It’s a point worth making from the outset, not so much for political reasons (although they matter) but to indicate how this effective yet hardly exceptional addition to the oeuvre finds at least one significant front on which to innovate, even while coloring comfortably within the lines on practically everything else. Like Remy, the rodent hero of “Ratatouille” who dreamed of working in a French restaurant, 12-year-old Miguel Rivera (voiced by Anthony Gonzalez) has just one passion in life: He wants to play the guitar. Unfortunately for him, Miguel belongs to a family of humble shoemaker...

Amidst all the love and joy for  Star Wars: The Force Awakens , there was one common criticism: it felt kinda familiar. The slight sense of deja vu hardly ruined the fun but it did make some fans (including me) worry that the new trilogy wouldn't have much that was actually  new  to offer. Force Awakens and  Star Wars 9  director J.J. Abrams' assuaged some of those concerns in a recent interview with the  BBC  (via  Star Wars News Net ), speaking alongside Rogue One composer and frequent collaborator Michael Giacchino. "Well, it’s certainly something that I’m aware of now working on Episode 9 - coming back into this world after having done Episode 7," Abrams said. "I feel like we need to approach this with the same excitement that we had when we were kids, loving what these movies were. And at the same time, we have to take them places that they haven’t gone, and that’s sort of our responsibility. It’s a strange thing - Michael’s worked ...
