First Trailer For 'The Judge' Starring Robert Downey Jr. and Robert Duvall


The “Iron Man” star’s latest post unveiled the trailer for his new movie “The Judge,” which he dubbed “the kind of movie I grew up wanting to make.”

The clip shows Robert Downey Jr. in the lead role of Hank Palmer, a big city lawyer who returns to his childhood home after his mother’s death. As Hank tries to reconnect his his estranged father (Robert Duvall), the town’s judge, things get more complicated when he receives a call from the sheriff saying that his father is accused of murder.

Based on the trailer, “The Judge” looks to be one of Downey’s more serious and dramatic roles as his character stands up for his family, saying, “My father’s a lot of unpleasant things. A murderer’s not one of them.”

The film also stars Vera Farmiga, Vincent D’Onofrio, Dax Shepard, Jeremy Strong and Billy Bob Thornton.

“The Judge” is set to hit theaters on theaters Oct. 10th.

Prince William And Kate Get New Helicopter From Queen Elizabeth II For His 32nd Birthday


Prince William and Kate are reportedly getting a brand new helicopter from his granny, Queen Elizabeth II, on the occasion of his birthday. The royal turns 32-years-old on Saturday, and what a way to celebrate his special day.

William is a Royal Air Force (RAF) helicopter pilot, who recently left his job to focus on his duties as second in line to the British throne after his father, Prince Charles. The married father of one will use the chopper to go from engagement to engagement quickly, so he and wife Kate Middleton can get home to their son, Prince George.

The luxury Agusta A109S Grand costs approximately $13.6 million, and Prince William will be its first user. The fancy helicopter can supposedly reach speeds of 180 mph and stay in the air for up to four hours without refueling.

Jane Fonda Lists Her New Mexico Ranch For $19.5 Million


Jane Fonda
has listed her New Mexico estate for $19.5 million.

The nearly 2,300-acre Forked Lightning Ranch sits about 25 miles outside Santa Fe, and the actress purchased it after separating from former husband Ted Turner. Fonda, 76, said the ranch "has been a sanctuary and a place of great joy and recreation for me and my family," but she's selling it because "many changes have occurred in my life since 2000 and I am no longer able to spend as much time on the ranch as I once was."


Angelina Jolie And Brad Pitt Add A Skate Park To Their Los Angeles Mansion

 

As if Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's six kids didn't already have it made, their life just got even better, because their superstar parents have built a skate park at the family compound in Los Feliz.

Last month the ramps were still under construction, and at first we thought Brangelina were adding another pool to their massive residence, but it turns out it's a series of connected skate ramps, complete with one that's made to look like an abandoned pool. They really put some thought into this!

So this is for the boys, right? Nope! It turns out Brad and Angie's daughter Shiloh, who turned 8 on May 27, is the one who will probably be most excited about this. “We did lots of things [for her birthyday],” Jolie told E! News at the Maleficent premiere on May 28. “She’s very into skating. She's a skateboarder. We did graffiti lessons and skateboarding.”

Jason Biggs Talks About When His Wife Hired Him A Prostitute Then Watched And Ate Chips


For some ungodly reason Jason Biggs and his wife got a hooker for the American Pie actor's birthday -- and then decided to talk about it on national TV.

Jason Biggs' wife Jenny Mollen appeared on The View this week to promote her recently penned a memoir I Like You Just the Way I Am, in which she describes a sexual encounter between the couple and a prostitute. There's a scene we have no desire to envision!

Guest host Candace Cameron Bure, who is a conservative Christian, didn't seem to find all the hooker talk amusing and criticized the part-time hooker lover on the show the next day. Defending his wife's honor (or is it dishonor?), Biggs took to the View's couches on Thursday to explain their side of the story.

"We are very open people, we are real people. My wife is amazing," said the Orange is the New Black star. "This is not a habitual thing on our part. We don't have a group of prostitutes who come in and out of our house on a regular basis."

Chelsea Handler To Host New Talk Show On Netflix


Netflix announced Thursday morning that Chelsea Handler has signed a “groundbreaking,” multi-tiered deal with the streaming service, which includes a standup special, four “docu-comedy specials”—and, most importantly, “the first-ever talk show for the global on-demand generation,” which is set to premiere in 2016.

Details about the new show—including its name—are scarce for now, though a release notes that it will feature an “updated format,” as well as at least one talk show staple (guest interviews).

“The Internet has disrupted many of the conventions of traditional television and together with Chelsea Handler, Netflix is looking forward to reimagining the late night talk show for the on-demand generation, starting with the late night part,” Netflix Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos said in a statement.

‘Star Wars: Episode 7′ Rumor: An Empire Not Yet Fallen


Here are the known facts so far, when it comes to Star Wars: Episode VII. The film takes place 30 years after Episode VI – Return of the Jedi (i.e. approximately, in real-world time) and features the “original trilogy” movie leads Luke Skywalker, Leia (Skywalker Solo?), and Han Solo – brought to life again by Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, and Harrison Ford – plus several new players that are being portrayed by talented newcomers to the Star Wars universe.

So, hereon forward, we are moving into RUMOR territory, where it concerns the plot details of Episode VII. For starters, let’s ask the obvious question: what’s been going on during the three decades that’ve passed by since the second Death Star was destroyed and Emperor Palpatine was defeated?
Well, according to some of the recent rumors, a New Republic has yet to be established in the Star Wars universe, unlike what had happened in the Star Wars “Expanded Universe” literature of old by this point in time (remember, the old EU is officially not canon moving from this point forward).

The reason? At first, the claim was that this is because there have been these “Jedi Hunters” who worship the Sith, running around the galaxy and causing trouble for our heroes. Subsequent, but also unconfirmed, reports have instead stated that although there are “mercenary types” that may’ve been causing problems for a while by the time Episode VII picks up, their allegiance to the Sith is not yet a given.

Kevin Hart Confronts His Fear of Roller Coasters On 'Jimmy Fallon'


On The Tonight Show, Jimmy Fallon took advantage of the show’s week-long relocation to Orlando by taking Think Like a Man Too star Kevin Hart to the Universal Studios Florida theme park for a turn on the Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit.

“Really, I don’t like roller coasters,” Hart told Fallon. “And you made me do it.”

Fallon’s segment included a joke about Hart being too short to board the coaster, but the best gags were clearly unplanned—like Hart’s look of sheer terror midway through the ride, or Fallon’s response to being hit in the face by a bug.

Lupita Nyong'o: Red Carpet Is Like a 'War Zone'


Lupita Nyong'o thinks walking a red carpet is similar to fighting war on a battle field ... only the Oscar winning actress says the press line is WORSE -- because you can't fight the media.

The "12 Years a Slave" actress told "Vogue" ... "The red carpet feels like a war zone, except you cannot fly or fight; you just have to stand there and take it."

Lupita's comments come on the heels of Tom Cruise and Gwyneth Paltrow also showing questionable judgement -- comparing acting and dealing with Internet insults to military action.

She even recognized there might be a backlash for the comment, saying ... "I hope they don’t make that the big quote! Because that would be sad! Tell them not to do that!"

Kim Kardashian Shares Her Parenting Rules


Kim Kardashian, normally kind of quiet about her personal-personal life, and not the personal life she projects on screen for "Keeping Up With the Kardashians," is being benignly surprising because she's talking about all sorts of things that she's kept to herself -- or at least her inner sanctum -- for a long time.

In a recent interview, Kim talked about her particular method of parenting, which has received a lot of backlash from the internet at large. Kim was asked what style she felt most comfortable adopting when it came to her daughter, North West, and had this to say:

"I am a strict mother. I'm really fun and playful, but I'm really strict on nap time, and sleeping in her own crib. Like, Kourtney's style is where her kids sleep in bed with her, so especially with the third baby coming, they're going to need a bigger bed, or they're going to need some other rules. ... Maybe on weekends, [North] will come and sleep with us. But ... I'm not crazy strict. ... I hope [to give North a sibling]. I grew up with a lot of siblings, so I know what that's like. ... I like a big family and I would definitely like one more and see how that goes."

The cobalt blue and violet aurora swirling around her draws all attention to the gleaming Emmy, in a dynamic, aspirational pose.”

Selena Gomez: Cops Called To Her Hidden Hills Home


Selena Gomez had a rager at her house Tuesday night ... and it got so out of hand cops were called.

Law enforcement sources say... Selena's Hidden Hills, CA neighbors were so pissed off at the loud noise coming from her house at around 11:30 PM ... they called police.  The cops responded and warned Selena and company to turn down the volume or else.

One neighbor tells sources... the noise was so ear-crushing her windows were rattling.

Sources connected with Selena and her family say... the singer has told her kinfolk she's back with Justin Bieber because he's cleaned up his act. But they say... they don't think it's coincidental at all that in the last few days ... she's spent a late, late night at a Hollywood club with Bieber and had an out-of-control party on a Tuesday night.

Tracy Morgan Upgraded To Fair Condition


A week after a frightening and fatal car accident landed him in the hospital, Tracy Morgan's rep says the actor/comedian has been "upgraded to fair condition, which is a great improvement. His personality is certainly starting to come back as well."

On June 6 a Walmart truck slammed into a limousine carrying Morgan and his entourage, and the 30 Rock star suffered a broken leg, a broken femur, a broken nose and broken ribs in the collision. Morgan's comic mentor James McNair was killed in the crash and two other passengers, including Morgan's assistant, Jeffrey Millea, were seriously injured.

Kevin Roper, the driver of the Walmart big rig, pleaded not guilty to vehicular homicide and assault by auto in New Brunswick, New Jersey on Wednesday. According to a complaint filed by New Jersey State Police, Roper was awake more than 24 hours before the accident occurred, and if convicted on all charges, he faces up to fifteen years in jail.

Zsa Zsa Gabor's Husband: I'm Suing Doctors For $10 Million If My Face Doesn't Get Fixed


Zsa Zsa Gabor's husband, Prince Frederic von Anhalt, is fuming mad over his botched "face-makeover" ... and he's already talking lawsuit if his mug doesn't heal properly.

Prince claims a plastic surgeon botched a routine operation on his face ... and left him "looking like s***" -- and it's hard to argue.

Von Anhalt told a photog yesterday what exactly went wrong with his face, and explained it's NOT a Botox problem -- it's actually worse. He added, if his moneymaker (in his opinion) never heals he will unleash a $10 million lawsuit. 

Dave Chappelle CRASHES "Today" Show


Dave Chappelle was banging on the window at the "Today" show this morning -- but the stunt was just as transparent as the glass.

Matt Lauer feigned surprise when he just happened to notice the comedian hyping his show from outside.

Lauer took a break so he could walk outside and interview Chappelle about his upcoming shows at Radio City Music Hall ... and it was just plain weird.  Lauer happened to know the first 5 shows sold out immediately, so Dave is there trying to sell tickets to 4 additional shows.

The way to sell ... be funny.  And it really wasn't. 

Maybe Dave isn't a morning guy.

‘How to Train Your Dragon 2′ Sends DreamWorks Animation Stock Down


How to Train Your Dragon 2″ didn’t prove to be enough of a box office fire-breather for Wall Street, sending the share price of DreamWorks Animation sliding more than 12% on Monday.

The animated sequel opened to $50 million domestically and picked up in an additional $24.8 million from 26 international territories. However, going into the weekend some analysts had predicted that the film would open to north of $60 million. The company’s stock was down more than $3 on Monday morning, trading at $23.94.

While DreamWorks Animation has made steps to branch out into different areas of the media business, buying YouTube powerhouse AwesomenessTV and signing deals with Netflix for instance, the frosty reception from investors demonstrates its fortunes remain inexorably tied to the theatrical performance of a handful of films.

“The stock is definitely going to being volatile to opening weekends given that they only have three movies per year and they’re not diversified enough with TV and other things to help offset weaker openings,” said Eric Wold, an analyst with B. Riley and Co.

"Blossom" Reunion: See The Stars Almost 20 Years Later

 

The Russo clan got together again on Monday for a "Blossom" reunion, the crew gathering for the first time since the show went off the air almost 20 years ago.

Mayim Bialik gave us all a major '90s flashback when she posted a number of photos from brand new photo shoot earlier today. The promotional shoot was for The Hub network, which will start airing the classic sitcom in July.

Mayim, Jenna von Oy, Joey Lawrence and Mike Stoyanov were all on hand for the session, though Ted Wass -- who played Blossom's dad, Nick -- was MIA. Also missing: Blossom's incredible hats.

"We still look like young whippersnappers," Mayim tweeted about the reunion ... though someone should tell her there's nothing "young" about the word "whippersnappers."

"Older but still together," added von Oy.

"So awesome being with u all again. Feels like no time has passed. Love you all," Lawrence also tweeted after the shoot.

The show's entire five-season run will start re-airing on The Hub starting July 7th.

Salma Hayek Rents Out Her Hollywood Hills Home For $8,900 A Month


After listing her Outpost Estates home for lease last fall, Salma Hayek is at it again, but she's dropped the price, and it looks like she's really eager to find a renter.

Hayek has lowered the rent from $9,500 to $8,900 a month, but we don't feel too bad for her. Not only did she purchase the home in 1996 for just $538,000 (it's easily worth five times that now), but she's currently married to french billionaire Francois-Henri Pinault, so she's not exactly hurting for cash.

The single-story 2,900-square-foot ranch-style home has four bedrooms, three bathrooms and killer views, and it sits in the exclusive Outpost Estates neighborhood where stars like Matthew Perry, Michael C. Hall and Ryan Reynolds have all lived.


In addition to a pool and spacious deck, there are high beamed ceilings and large windows, so the views from inside the home are amazing as well. There is an eat-in kitchen with new stainless steel appliances, and the master suite boasts a massive walk-in closet.

J. Lo's new album A.K.A., will be released on June 17, and the other day she posted a clip from the music video for her new single "Booty."

From the size of her derriere to the fact that she's 44 years old, our mind is pretty much blown. And we're hoping that her ex-beau Casper Smart is kicking himself after seeing this.

Justin Bieber Hits The Recording Studio With Chris Brown Again


After spending some quality time in the studio over the weekend, Justin Bieber and Chris Brown got together again for another recording sesh! Biebs tweeted the above snapshot on Monday and wrote, "Studio, me and CB did 1 for the fans." They may have their fair share of run-ins with the law, but you can't deny how talented the dudes are, so we're very curious to hear their collaboration.

“They came into the studio and were immediately happy to see one another,” a source tells HollywoodLife. “They gave each other a handshake with a long hug. They started play boxing and JB was like, ‘Yo, what up Chris, my brother?’ and Chris was like, ‘Haha, Biebs, look at you. What it do?’ They were as happy as can be, like two brothers from another mother.”

And it wasn't just about music! "They talked about how they admire and respect one another and how they are going to put all of their time and energy into this music," the source added. "They’re both sick of being distracted by the outside world and are both getting back to the basics."

Harrison's son, Ben Ford, says that his dad will possibly need a plate and screws put into his ankle.
