IFC films has today shared the first look at Owen Wilson in Paint, in which the actor is equipped with with sky-high curls, a well-loved palette, and a stunning canvas full of happy little trees. You’re thinking, “this is certainly a Bob Ross biopic.” Alas, the funnyman isn’t playing the late great PBS personality, but a different, fictional public television artist. Paint is an upcoming comedy film hailing from writer-director Brit McAdams, and in a sort of Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood style, it seems to put a satirical twist on Ross’ legacy. Owen’s iteration of the painter is named Carl Nargle, a local favorite public TV personality in Vermont famed for his distinctive perm and encouraging mantras. Ross’ career encountered very few speedbumps; his PBS show The Joy of Painting ...
The holidays are a time for overeating, reconnecting with loved ones, and watching so-bad-they’re-good movies about rich people marrying poor people. But the charm of this genre is that the flicks are campy and cheaply made. Throw in a big budget and serious attitude and you get Marry Me, the new film starring Jennifer Lopez and Owen Wilson, which looks awful enough to make even Lifetime lifers cringe. J. Lo leads the way as Kat Valdez, a pop star set to marry her longtime boyfriend on stage, only to realize moments before that he’s cheating. On an impulse, she picks single dad Charlie Gilbert (Wilson) out of the crowd and marries him instead. In the three-minute trailer, we see the supposedly level-headed dad Gilbert make so many baffling decisions it’s a miracle nobody has called DC...
This past summer felt like a tumultuous one for Saturday Night Live, despite (or possibly because of) its usual between-season silence about major changes to the show—broken, as per tradition, shortly before the start of a new season. Season 46 ended with what felt like possible sendoffs for several long-tenured members of a record-sized cast—and then word flew around over the summer that SNL impresario Lorne Michaels was trying to convince some veteran players to stick around for not just the next season, but several more after that, dangling a more flexible work schedule in front of familiar faces like Kate McKinnon, Aidy Bryant, and Cecily Strong. The Michaels Plan seems to have been put into motion with Season 47: McKinnon, Bryant, and Strong are all back, at least according to the ope...
Saturday Night Live will return for its 47th season starting October 2nd, and the initial four hosts include a beloved SNL alum, an Academy Award winner, a Wedding Crasher, and a… Kardashian. Owen Wilson has been parodied on SNL plenty of times, but the Wedding Crashers and Loki star will finally get his chance to host on October 2nd. He’ll be followed on October 9th by Kim Kardashian West, professional famous person and “goth girl” mom. Then on October 9th, Oscar winner Rami Malek will probably get a chance to show off some of his moves from Bohemian Rhapsody, and October 16th will see the Emmy’s most Outstanding Actor, Jason Sudeikis, returning to the set that made him a star. Sudeikis’ return will be especially sweet. He was a regular cast member from 2005 to 2013, a...
Marvel has shared a new trailer for the next Marvel Cinematic Universe adventure to come to Disney+, Loki. The series is set to arrive on the streaming service on June 11th, and it already looks like it will rival WandaVision in high-concept premise and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier in big budget action. Much of what we see in this latest preview we already knew: the “variant” of Loki (Tom Hiddleston) who picked up the Tesseract in Avengers: Endgame ends up causing some time turmoil with his actions. That puts the Time Variance Authority on the case, and Owen Wilson’s Mobius plucks Loki from the time stream in hopes of using his “unique Loki perspective” to help set things right. There’s traveling to different planets and times (via rectangular doorways that might have c...
