Curio: Barbies Reborn

4 November 2009 7:15 PM, PST | FilmExperience | See recent FilmExperience news »

Alexa from Pop Elegantiarum here. Like a lot of women, I have a love-hate relationship with Barbie. In her current incarnation, she is a stripper image of femininity that, in addition to being a bad role model for girls, is just, well, tasteless. But then I'll see a retro Barbie from the 60s and I flip for her exaggerated glamour. In the spirit of the latter, I wanted to share these repainted dolls by Noel Cruz. Noel takes your average fashion doll, like Barbie, removes the factory paint, and repaints the features. After a wardrobe change, the dolls are reborn as some favorite film characters, like this Miranda Priestly doll. Love the wardrobe, and how he managed to capture the essence of Meryl Streep's features (albeit in a streamlined Barbie way).

And he has a slew of actressy dolls too, like this dreamy Nicole Kidman. I could bore my »

Robert Pattinson to be joined by Nicole Kidman for 'Bel Ami'

4 November 2009 12:38 AM, PST | Twilight Examiner | See recent Twilight Examiner news »

Robert Pattinson, it has just been announced, will be joined by none other than Cold Mountain and Australia beauty Nicole Kidman for his upcoming film Bel Ami. Pattinson, you know, will be taking the lead in the book-to-film translation of Guy de Maupassant's novel by the same name. Ditching the Edward Cullen swagger and charm from The Twilight Saga: New Moon and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse for a more bedding provocateur role in Bel Ami, Pattinson will begin filming the movie in February, 2010. Presumably this will take place once his Allen Coulter film Remember Me debuts in theaters (February 12, 2010). Read more a ... »

Renee Zellweger Debunks 'Bridget Jones 3' Rumors

20 October 2009 8:03 PM, PDT | Aceshowbiz | See recent Aceshowbiz news »

Contrary to what has been suggested earlier, Renee Zellweger won't be packing up pounds any time soon for "Bridget Jones 3". At Elle magazine's Women in Hollywood event, the 40-year-old actress set the record straight, telling Marc Malkin of E! she hasn't signed on to do another portrayal of thirty-something Bridget Jones.

"I get asked every single day, and I don't know anything," the actress who earned her two Academy Award nods from the role confessed. "It's a rumor." On the report suggesting she will be wearing fat suit instead of gaining the actual pounds this time around, the Ruby Thewes of "Cold Mountain" responded simply, "Oh, goody! When are we having the fitting?"

Presented with the idea of portraying the character in a possible stage musical, Zellweger had this to say, "I haven't been asked, [but] I think that would be weird. Do you think that would be weird?" When her »

Renee Zellweger growing old gracefully

5 September 2009 10:00 PM, PDT | Monsters and Critics | See recent Monsters and Critics news »

Renee Zellweger insists turning 40 hasn't affected her career. The 'Cold Mountain' star - who celebrated the landmark birthday in April - believes her quirky appearance will always land her roles, regardless of her age. Asked if she had noticed more exciting parts drying up, she said: "It's so hard to comment because I don't see it. I don't know. I'm so spoiled with respect to the experiences I've had and the opportunities I've had that I don't see it. "I've never been that girl who is dependant on how fabulous my hair is or my stature or that I look good in order to work. So I don't really think about it in those terms." The actress »

Mark Rendall, Renee Zellweger and Logan Lerman in My One and Only

Photo: Freestyle Releasing I guess I shouldn't be too surprised there is a mild bit of Oscar buzz surrounding Renee Zellweger and her performance in My One and Only, especially since it now seems as if every performance Zellweger gives is going to be no different than the last. She's been nominated before for doing the same thing, why not this time? Right? Of course, this is hardly a ringing endorsement, but I will admit My One and Only isn't the cliched tedium I expected it to be based on the film's generic trailer. Instead, it has several sweet family moments and an ending I really thought pulled things together nicely. As for Zellweger, she's perfectly fine, but she has done little to really impress me since Cold Mountain in 2003 and of course Chicago one year earlier. However, »

Renee Zellweger to Put Life In Danger to Save Career

Problem: Renee Zellweger has not been in anything like a hit live-action film since 2005 2003's Cold Mountain, for which she won an Oscar. Solution? Bridget Jones 3. Two years ago, Zellweger acknowledged the danger in the yo-yo dieting mandated by her iconic role: 'I had a panic attack with all the specialists talking about how bad this is for you long-term, putting on that much weight in short periods of time,' she said.

Bradley Cooper and Renée Zellweger on a Date?

That Bradley Cooper certainly gets around. Last weekend he was in Paris, where he fended off rumors about a possible relationship with Jennifer Aniston after they were seen together in New York. Then, Tuesday night on Manhattan's Upper East Side, the Hangover star, 34, was seen with Renée Zellweger, 40, at the Italian restaurant Antonucci. "She didn't really eat much, but he ate," someone in the restaurant told People, adding that the two looked like they were on a date. "They were very flirty. Either he's being very gentlemanly, 'cause that's the way he is, or they're dating. He paid. He pulled out her chair, »

‘The Matrix’ To ‘The Dark Knight’: Oscar Best Picture Near-Misses Of The Past Decade

25 June 2009 1:30 PM, PDT | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »

Yesterday, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced that the Best Picture category centerpiece at the yearly Oscar awards show will be expanded to include 10 nominees. We MTV Movies Team staffers were not amused.

In the wake of the announcement, many accusations surfaced that this move is nothing more than a ratings ploy. For many, the allegations spring from the fact that “The Dark Knight” — a universally regarded hit and currently the fourth-highest grossing film of all time — was snubbed for a Best Pic nomination. That got me thinking about all of the other incredible films which have fallen victim to Oscar politics over the years…

2008 — Is anyone really going to dispute that “The Dark Knight” should have taken home a statue? Or at least gotten a shot at taking home a statue? No? I didn’t think so. Moving on…

Nicole Kidman Exits Woody Allen's Next Movie

14 May 2009 1:31 AM, PDT | GetTheBigPicture.net | See recent Get The Big Picture news »

You know who could use a good movie? That Nicole Kidman. Kidman is - or was - a movie star. She did great work for about three years straight. She won an Oscar. And then, suddenly, she had worse instincts than Kate Hudson.

The last good movie she made may have been The Interpreter but more than likely it was Cold Mountain. Fur, Birth, and Dogville were all honest efforts that backfired through no real fault of her own, and anything with a budget made in the last five years has been met with apathy at best. That's a Detroit Lions-esque nine-movie skid. For someone earning over $10 million a movie for her studio work and with an Oscar in the last decade, that's a terrible track record.

So Kidman has lined up some potentially great project, like the upcoming musical Nine and a new Woody Allen movie. Nope...sorry, scratch that. »
