Jeffrey Dean Morgan Calls His 'Walking Dead' Character the 'Biggest A-- in the World'

Posted:

2015 Toronto International Film Festival - "Desierto" PremiereFans of "The Walking Dead" may be excited about Jeffrey Dean Morgan playing uber-villain Negan on the zombie drama, but there's one person who isn't thrilled — his mother!

As Morgan told Seth Meyers on "Late Night," his mom is a teensy bit annoyed that his new role could affect the one he had on "The Good Wife," as an investigator and possible love interest for Julianna Margulies. "When I took the show, she was like, 'What does this mean with 'The Good Wife?' She was devastated that this could be the end. I was like, 'Mom, keep your pants on.'"
On "The Good Wife," Morgan's character was a (mostly reformed) bad boy with a soft side for Alicia Florrick. That doesn't even come close to describing the evil guy he'll play on "The Walking Dead."

Negan is "a game-changer. It's a complete 180 from what I'm doing on 'The Good Wife,' which for an actor is a dream come true," he said. "I get to be the biggest a-- in the world."

Guess Rick Grimes is getting some competition for that title!

Watch Lauren Cohan Destroy Jack Black in Wild Game of 'Name That Thing'

Posted:

You'd think Jack Black would recognize a sitar, but apparently they skipped that in "School of Rock." The "Kung Fu Panda 3" star joined "The Walking Dead" star Lauren Cohan on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" Tuesday night, and they played a little game called "Name That Thing." The two stars were shown some kind of ... thing ... and had to write down its exact title.

It's harder than it sounds! And it did not go well, especially for Jack.

Here's the game:




Maggie slays, once again! Glenn would be proud.

That said, Lauren got a gift with those 10 points for "small fruit." And did anyone really know "auger"? But shame on Jack for writing "Djiree Don't" instead of "sitar." Lauren went one better and even wrote "Ravi Shakar's sitar," even though it wasn't Ravi Shakar's. And she is now, officially, The Queen of Soups. Jack, on the other hand, tried to sell Jimmy on "Pee" soup. Thankfully, he crossed off "Poop" soup, but you know someone out there has tried that.

Josh Brolin Uses Kleenex Box for Hilariously Wrong Kim Kardashian Impression

Posted:

Oh, Josh Brolin. He had an interesting time on "The Tonight Show." First, Jimmy Fallon helped shave off Brolin's "'70s porn stache" for a movie he just finished. Then, a clean-shaven Josh joined Jimmy and Kate McKinnon for a round of "First Impressions." In the game, the trio were each assigned celebrities to impersonate on the spot, and the others had to guess the celebs.

Josh started with a truly lame Regis Philbin impression, followed by Kate's meh Christopher Walken impression. Then Jimmy got Mike Tyson, which seemed tough, but he nailed it.

After that, Josh was given Kim Kardashian, and that's when things got weird. He started looking around for props ("I need something big") and picked up a box of Kleenex and put it on his butt. "Imagine this is in my pants." (!) He paced around with that box on his butt, then repeated, in his own normal voice, "I could play checkers for hours and never get bored." Kate and Jimmy were not guessing it, so Josh flipped his hair as he paced, and Jimmy finally guessed, tentatively, "Kim Kardashian?" Kate thanked Jimmy for guessing right, since she never would've gotten that.

Here are both the shaving and tissue butt Kardashian videos:

Joseph Fiennes Was Seriously Cast as Michael Jackson in 9/11 Comedy

Posted:

Admit it, when you watched "Shakespeare in Love," you thought "That Will Shakespeare actor should play Michael Jackson some day." Congrats, 'cause that day is here!

Believe it or not, British actor Joseph Fiennes will play Michael Jackson -- opposite Stockard Channing as Elizabeth Taylor and Brian Cox as Marlon Brando -- in a road trip comedy called "Elizabeth, Michael & Marlon," following the celebrity trio's rumored cross-country trip after the 9/11 attacks in New York City.

Joseph Fiennes recently described (and defended) the project to WENN:

"I got the script the other day. It's a challenge. It's a comedy. It doesn't poke mean fun but it's a story, possibly urban legend, whereby Michael, Marlon Brando, and Liz Taylor were all together the day before 9/11 doing a concert. Airspace was shut down and they couldn't get out and Michael had the bright idea to go to hire a car and drive. So the three of them got in a car and drove 500 miles to Los Angeles. It took them a while because they had to stop at a lot of Burger Kings for Marlon; but they got out! It's a lovely thing about Michael's relationship with Liz Taylor and Marlon Brando. It's a fun, light-hearted tongue in cheek road trip of what celebrity of that kind is like. But also it's rather beautiful and poignant about their relationships as well."


Sky Arts issued a statement (via Entertainment Weekly) on the half-hour comedy, which is meant to air sometime later this year:

"'Elizabeth, Michael & Marlon' is a Sky Arts comedy which takes a light hearted look at a reportedly true event; Joseph Fiennes is cast as Michael Jackson. It is part of a series of comedies about unlikely stories from arts and cultural history. Sky Arts puts the integrity of the creative vision at the heart of all its original commissions and we believe in giving producers the creative freedom to cast roles as they wish, within the diversity framework which we have set."


That sounds like a pre-emptive strike against anyone threatening to be offended by the white Joseph Fiennes (brother of Ralph Fiennes) taking on the role of Michael Jackson. And, in fact, HitFix has already posted the news under its "Outrage Watch," sharing reaction tweets from critics.

Orlando Jones had a good take:


That would've been great. But it's not happening. And it follows Charlie Hunnam's casting as a Mexican-American drug lord. Needless to say, this is not the diversity many viewers were hoping to see on screen.


Do you think it's in bad taste for Fiennes (and Hunnam) to take roles like this, or should fans just wait and see before judging? Maybe we should be most "offended" by the idea of a comedy set around the September 11 attacks.

Tom Cruise Teases 'Top Gun 2' With New Photo

Posted:

It looks like the wheels are finally up on "Top Gun 2." The looooong-awaited sequel to Tom Cruise's 1986 movie got itself a solid script last year, and now there's photographic proof of progress.

Producer Jerry Bruckheimer just posted this photo with Cruise, and Cruise -- who rarely tweets anything -- retweeted the shot:



Someone needs to find the Fountain of Youth that Tom Cruise and Keanu Reeves have hidden somewhere, 'cause 53-year-old Tommy does not look much older than he did in the '80s.

Over the summer, Skydance CEO David Ellison talked to Collider about "Top Gun 2," saying "Justin Marks is writing the screenplay right now. He has a phenomenal take to really update that world for what fighter pilots in the Navy has turned into today. There is an amazing role for Maverick in the movie and there is no Top Gun without Maverick, and it is going to be Maverick playing Maverick."

Shortly after that, while in London for the premiere of "Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation," Cruise addressed the "Top Gun 2" talk with Reuters, saying, "It would be fun. I would like to get back into those jets." However, he said, "It would have to be practical. I don't want any CGI jets. I want to shoot it like how we shot the first one."

So he still wants to do his own stunts, and that may have been part of the weekend conversation between the producer and the star. If they are not only talking about the movie, but sharing a photo from the discussion, that is a solid hint that this puppy will actually fly sometime soon -- like, within the next 30 years.

'Lip Sync Battle': Watch Josh Gad and Johnny Galecki Make Out (as Donald Trump)

Posted:

Look at LL Cool J's reaction -- it's huuuuuge!

This Thursday, January 28, "Frozen" star Josh Gad is taking on "The Big Bang Theory" star Kaley Cuoco on Spike's "Lip Sync Battle." Spike just posted a couple of teasers for the showdown, including Josh as Donald Trump, performing The Divinyls' "I Touch Myself."

The clip takes a random turn at the end when Kaley's TBBT co-star Johnny Galecki shows up, also wearing a Trump wig, and makes out with Gad's Trump. As one fan put it in the YouTube comments, "Oh my gosh I just saw Leonard make out with Olaf..." Yep, while dressed as Trump! Things you don't see every day.



Kaley laughs, but LL clearly wishes he could unsee it. Megyn Kelly should put that one on repeat.

Here's a preview of Kaley getting dirty to Ludacris's "Move Bitch":


Watch the full battles play out on Thursday. Do you think Trump will tune in?

Cersei Lannister Reading Insults From 'The Bachelor' Is Perfect

Posted:

"Game of Thrones" Queen Cersei Lannister would actually be a perfect contestant on "The Bachelor." She's drunk. She's mean. She's jealous. And she has a secret boyfriend back home (who happens to be her brother).

"The Bachelor" is like the War of the Roses with no real winners, except maybe viewers who watch to feel better about themselves. Jimmy Kimmel has to promote the show, 'cause it's on ABC, but he likes to poke fun of it whenever possible. Lena Headey was recently on "Jimmy Kimmel Live," and since she plays Cersei Lannister -- who is basically a walking Mean Tweet -- Jimmy put her to use to read real insults from this season of "The Bachelor" in the voice of Queen C.

Here's the result:



Again, those are real quotes. And she NAILED them. If only the video went on for two hours, like "The Bachelor."

The Official 'Angry Birds Movie' Trailer Is Here, and It's Kinda Gross

Posted:

Yep, there's an "Angry Birds" movie coming this May -- taking the birds vs. pigs game, giving it a loose plot, and selling it to kids, their parents, and any other adults who like underdog stories and pee jokes.

A teaser trailer came out last September, but the first official trailer just dropped, focusing on a bird with anger issues named Red (voiced by Jason Sudeikis). Red is the only one who recognizes that the new pigs in town are up to no good. And Red seems to be angry because he's bullied for his eyebrows and treated like an outcast -- like Rudolph if Rudolph just snapped one day.

The trailer takes us through the basics of the story, as Red and his fellow outsider buddies Chuck (Josh Gad) and Bomb (Danny McBride) try to figure out what the green pigs are up to. Along the way, they visit the awe-inspiring Mighty Eagle and learn the truth about his "lake of wisdom." Let's just say it's a good reminder on why you don't want to go around drinking from random fountains and streams. You don't know what's really in there. The Angry Birds Movie (2016) - Trailer No. 3
This thing has an all-star voice cast, from the three main guys to Maya Rudolph, Kate McKinnon, Tony Hale, Keegan-Michael Key, Bill Hader, and even Peter Dinklage. It's scheduled for release on May 20th.

Plus, she's sassy and snarky when she needs to be and her Haley burns are always on point. Here are 15 times she was the Dunphy we all loved the most.
