Taraji P. Henson continues to rage as one of the most stunning and intricately performing actors in Hollywood’s entertainment industry, with a range as baffling to fans as her emotionally complex performances. Not only has she scored top-notch roles in some of the most critically commended projects of all time, but she has also been tremendously acknowledged for the same.

However, despite being one of the most famous names in the industry who never ceases to bring some of the most electrifying performances to the table, Henson’s net worth as of 2024 might leave you astonished. To say the least, considering her involvement with some spectacularly achieving pieces at the global box offices, her net worth is truly incredibly less than expected.
One of the reasons behind this is inevitably the salary she gets paid in compensation for all the jaw-dropping acts she delivers.

While Netflix doesn’t have the best track record with getting actors an Oscar, it does have an amazing track record at getting its stars a nomination. “Roma” star Yalitza Aparicio, “Blonde” star Ana de Armas, and even “Nyad” star Annette Bening to an extent are examples of performances that were not considered shoo-ins on nomination day, yet they happened.

Andrew Garfield starred as Spider-Man in The Amazing Spider-Man (2012) and The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014). While the franchise didn’t achieve massive popularity during his tenure, he performed well in the role, which delighted fans when he appeared alongside Tom Holland and Tobey Maguire in No Way Home.
With Spider-Man 4 on the horizon and strong rumors suggesting a multiversal storyline, fans are buzzing with speculation about Garfield potentially returning to reprise his iconic role.
A few weeks ago, Garfield dismissed the rumors, urging fans not to believe everything they read online. However, given his history of misleading statements about his Spider-Man role, it’s safe to say that not many took him at his word.
In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the actor appeared to drop additional hints about his potential appearance in the upcoming Spider-Man film.

Andrew Garfield portrayed Spider-Man in ‘The Amazing Spider-Man’ (2012) and ‘The Amazing Spider-Man 2’ (2014). Although the franchise was never massively popular while he was leading it, he was decent enough in the role which is why fans were extremely happy to see him in ‘No Way Home’ along with Tom Holland and Tobey Maguire.
Now that ‘Spider-Man 4’ is on the horizon and it’s heavily rumored to be a multiversal story, fans have been speculating that the actor might once again return to reprise his role.
Several weeks ago, Garfield debunked the rumors, telling fans not to believe everything they see online, but let’s be honest knowing his track record with lying about Spider-Man role, no one 100 % believed him.

Is every little detail about Dancing with the Stars totally organic? Season 19 contestant Antonio Sabato Jr. doesn’t think so. The actor and model once competed on the show back in 2014. When he recently reflected on that time, he didn’t have the nicest things to say. These are the details of Antonio‘s personal experience performing on the hit reality TV show.
Antonio Sabàto Jr. Doesn’t Remember DWTS Fondly
Antonio sat down with another former Dancing With the Stars contestant, Cheryl Burke. He joined her on her podcast, Sex, Lies, and Spray Tans to chat it up. At one point, he told Cheryl, “To be honest, I think that that the show is partly rigged in a sense. Yeah, it is rigged.” He went on to say:
“First of all, if you’re not a dancer or you don’t have dancing skills from a young age, you’re not going to win.

Angelina Jolie is an impeccable and talented actress. Being a household name through her work in Hollywood, she has made a name for herself for so much more than just her acting skills. Being a director and producer after predominantly acting for most of her professional life is not an easy task.

While Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures' Spider-Man 4 isn't releasing anytime soon, a new report details what fans of the web-slinger should expect in the upcoming MCU flick. As Spider-Man 4 sets its filming date to next year, the sequel may be replacing a key character in Peter Parker's life.
Spider-Man 4 Might Be Replacing Zendaya's Mj in the Long Run
Even though Tom Holland's Peter Parker saved the Multiverse by the end of Spider-Man: No Way Home, he sacrificed his life and lost his friends and loved ones in the process.
No one knows who he is and his connection to Spider-Man's heroic works, which makes the perfect set-up for re-establishing who he is in the MCU canon. One of these happens to be finding a new love interest for Peter Parker.

Fascinated by Zendaya’s stunning looks at this year’s Met Gala? So is Pedro Almodóvar. In fact, the Spanish filmmaker told Vanity Fair Spain he wants to make a movie inspired by the actress and her stylist, Law Roach.
“I’ve asked about this guy, and they’ve told me that he’s almost as much of a diva as she is,” he told the outlet. “I’d love to make a film about them, a mix of ‘All About Eve’ crossed with ‘The Devil Wears Prada.'” [The interview is in Spanish, which we’ve translated using Google Translate.]
Roach has worked with numerous celebrities, including Céline Dion, Ariana Grande, Anya Taylor-Joy and Kerry Washington — but in 2023, he announced he would be working exclusively with “Challengers” star Zendaya in lieu of retiring.
He announced his retirement in March 2023, in a since-deleted Instagram post, writing, “If this business was just about clothes, I would do it for the rest of my life,...

What’s next for Pedro Almodóvar after winning his first Golden Lion? Perhaps something very, very different.
“I’m fascinated by the stylist who looks after Zendaya [Law Roach],” “The Room Next Door” director Almodóvar told Vanity Fair Spain in an interview published in his native Spanish (we used the built-in Google Translate tool for this story).
“I think his work is an act of enormous creation. It’s about fashion, frivolity, and social issues, and it’s about promotion,” he continued. “But above all, I think it takes talent for that. I’ve asked about this guy, and I’ve been told that he’s almost as much of a diva as she is. I’d love to make a film about them, a cross between ‘All About Eve’ and ‘The Devil Wears Prada.'”

We recently learned that Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton will take the helm of Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios' still untitled fourth Spider-Man movie, and production is now said to be full steam ahead.
Trade reports have already confirmed that filming should get underway early next year, and we may have a more exact timeframe thanks to Mttsh.
According to the scooper, "Spider-Man 4 begins filming in the UK at the end of May 2025, and they're casting a new female lead as well as a new male lead to serve as a foil for Peter."
This new female lead could be Black Cat, who has previously been rumored to appear. "Foil for Peter" is interesting wording, as it doesn't sound like this character is going to be an outright villain. Could we see a new take on Harry Osborn make his MCU debut,...

Graydon Carter is ready to pull back the curtain on his storied stewardship of Vanity Fair. And The Hollywood Reporter can now exclusively reveal the cover of the magazine editor’s memoir, out March 25, 2025 from Penguin Press.
The dust jacket for When the Going Was Good: An Editor’s Adventures During the Last Golden Age of Magazines features a younger Carter in a bespoke power suit, cigarette in hand, his trademark hair wings just beginning to take flight.
Carter, 75, was offered the top job at the Condé Nast magazine in 1992, taking over from Tina Brown, who’d edited it since 1984 and was moving to The New Yorker.
Over the next two-and-a-half decades, Carter — who’d immigrated from Canada in 1979 and previously helmed the groundbreaking, celebrity-skewering Spy — transformed the magazine into a monthly must-read.

To go lead or not to go lead? That is the question. Luckily, we got a lot of answers this week. Gold Derby editors and Experts Christopher Rosen and Joyce Eng are here to discuss the Oscar category campaigns of several high-profile contenders.
Saoirse Ronan already has a clear lead performance in “The Outrun,” but she won’t compete against herself for votes in the category. As Gold Derby reported, the four-time Oscar nominee will go supporting for Steve McQueen‘s upcoming World War II drama “Blitz,” in which she plays a mother who’s separated from her 9-year-old son, George (Elliott Heffernan). We discuss why this isn’t a case of category fraud and her likelihood of becoming the 13th performer to score double Oscar nominations in one year.

While it’s true that Zendaya might just be one of the most famous Gen-z starlets of this modern era, that doesn’t mean she feels cut out for the pressures of fame. As a reminder, Zendaya has been a mega star in the entertainment industry for years now. She got her start on Disney Channel, and things have blown up for her in her adulthood. However, here’s the truth about what Zendaya really thinks about her level of fame.
Zendaya Doesn’t Exactly Love The Pressure Of Fame
Zendaya attended a screening event in New York City for Dune: Part 2, and she got super candid with her personal thoughts. According to Deadline, she spoke negatively about fame saying she doesn’t know if she “can handle all of that.” She also noted that she wants to be seen as a “person” above all else.

As her career continues to accelerate, actress Jenna Ortega remains focused on portraying complex characters through collaborations with leading directors. The 20-year-old star, known for roles in the Netflix series “Wednesday” and films by Tim Burton, revealed she had auditioned in the past for a part in Denis Villeneuve’s blockbuster “Dune.”
While she did not earn a role in that production, Ortega maintains a strong admiration for Villeneuve’s visionary work. With the “Dune” franchise now growing across multiple planned films and a new TV series, the expanding story could present future opportunities for talented actors like Ortega.
In a recent interview, Ortega opened up about her attempt several years ago to join the cast of Villeneuve’s 2020 adaptation of Frank Herbert’s seminal science fiction novel. Though details of the needed role remained covert, she believes it was likely that of Chani, eventually portrayed by Zendaya. “I remember...

The Gotham Awards have named the first filmmaker to be honored at the 2024 ceremony: Denis Villeneuve.
This year’s ceremony, which will take place on Monday, December 2, will toast the “Dune: Part Two” auteur with the Gotham Director Tribute.
Villeneuve’s sci-fi sequel film starred Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya and was released in March 2024. The feature was the sequel to Villeneuve’s 2021 Oscar-winning “Dune,” which was adapted from the first half of Frank Herbert’s beloved novel of the same name.
In addition to the expanding “Dune” franchise, French-Canadian filmmaker Villeneuve has previously directed “Blade Runner 2049” (2017), “Arrival” (2016), and “Sicario” (2015), among other features. The Gotham also has a tie to one of Villeneuve’s early films, “Incendies” (2010), which the organization supported through the IFP Week Program.

While the question initially left panelists filmmaker Denis Villeneuve and stars Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya and Austin Butler reeling with thoughts, chuckles and some slight overwhelm, Chalamet opted to respond first, saying in jest, “If I start answering, you guys need to answer too though.”

Could “Challengers,” which moved from an awards season slot last year due to the strikes to a less prestigious March release date this year, actually be a contender after all? The psychosexual tennis drama generated a lot of buzz and a fairly impressive box office performance, and it wouldn’t be crazy to wonder if nominations for Zendaya (Best Actress), Josh O’Connor (Best Supporting Actor), and Justin Kuritzkes (Best Original Screenplay) are possible. Ok, they’re admittedly pretty unlikely, but we do predict that Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross should be nominated for their pounding electronic score. The film is now available to stream on Prime Video.
“Challengers,” which hails from director Luca Guadagnino, is about a bizarre love triangle between Tashi (Zendaya), a tennis phenom whose career was derailed by an injury, her husband Art (Mike Faist), who became a superstar under her tutelage but is exhausted by his life,...

Being a part of two of the biggest superhero franchises ever comes with its list of pros and cons. Actors associated with highly anticipated films are often directed to keep their mouths shut. Before the premiere during interviews and promotions, it is advised to give out limited information about their upcoming role or film’s storyline.
Tom Holland became a notorious example of accidental spoilers. The Spider-Man actor was plagued with loose lips syndrome, wherein he often divulged confidential information about a new movie. In a hilarious statement, fellow Marvel turned DC actor, Frank Grillo claimed he wanted to avoid similar circumstances. The actor was very stringent with his statements regarding his upcoming movie, citing precaution.

Earlier this year, Christopher Nolan finally won Best Director at the Academy Awards. He picked up prize for helming Best Picture champ “Oppenheimer.” That victory came after five prior Oscar nominations, all of which ended in losses. Anyhow, Nolan has now finally been given the rewards his talents deserve. But there are still plenty of filmmakers who are overdue a Best Director gong. Scroll down for a list of five overdue filmmakers who could compete for the award at the 2025 Oscars.
Pedro Almodóvar
Almodóvar has five Oscar nominations and two victories to his name, so he may not seem overdue. He was nominated for Best Foreign Language Feature Film in 1989 for “Woman on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown” and in 2000 for “All About My Mother.” He won for the latter. He was then nominated for Best Director and Best Original Screenplay in 2003 for “Talk to Her,” winning for his writing.

Rather than pay up and keep the wheels spinning in their going-nowhere-fast lives, Frida has a plan: retrieving a hidden wad of bills, she purchases gowns so she and Jess can crash a fancy gala after their waitress shifts end.

Tennis may have singles and doubles, but Luca Guadagnino’s Challengers turned it into a three-person sport. The steamy sports drama about a love triangle performed modestly at the box office but blew up on social media, and fans who missed its theatrical run in April can now catch it at home on Prime Video. The film landed on MGM+ on July 29, but it can be streamed on Prime Video today.

Halle Berry has been very careful about the film roles she pursued ever since her Jungle Fever days. But there was one type of film role she used to reject for the sake of all her fans who’d look up to her. Soon, however, Berry discovered doing so might’ve just been limiting her career.

Berry knew the importance of having a role model as much as anyone. She’s been very candid about the identity issues she experienced growing up with interracial parents.
