John Turturro has been working in the film industry for a long time. If you quickly check his IMDB page you will quickly see that he probably appeared in at least one of your favorite movies from the past two decades. From George Clooney’s O Brother, Where Art Thou, to Michael Bay’s Transformers, John Turturro is one of those actors casting directors can depend on when they need a strong supporting actor.
However, recently John Turturro had a major co-starring role in the mini-series The Night Of, which showed how incredible an actor Turturro really is. Turturro plays John Stone, an actor who suffers from a severe case of Eczema – a skin condition that causes, bumps, itching, and rashes across the entire body. As Turturro’s character struggles to defend his client who is charged with first-degree murder, he is also juggling real life obstacles such as raising a son, trying not to grow old alone and dealing with a divorce.
Speaking with the New York Times, Turturro talks about his acting process for the HBO TV series and why he’s not like most actors. He explained for The Night Of, that he wanted people to relate to him and he worked on his accent and voice for the role of John Stone. “Matter of fact, the way I talked was more of a guy from the ’70s. If you look at the old The Taking of Pelham One Two Three or look at how Jerry Stiller and Walter Matthau and all those guys talked, they have a New York sound that doesn’t really exist anymore. I knew guys like that from my dad’s generation. Salt of the earth. One of these guys who you’d underestimate.”
Despite being known by casting directors and working actors across Hollywood, Turtorro admits he nearly quit acting several years ago. He explains, “You have a moment in your life where you go, is there anything else I want to do? I was telling my doctor about it and said, ‘I’d like to be a doctor.’ He said: ‘John, do you know how long you have to go to school to be a doctor? You do good stuff. What you do counts.”
Aside for a Golden Globe nomination and an Emmy Award for Outstanding Guest actor in a Comedy series, Turturro has not been recognized by many award shows. Turtorro points out that he made a choice to live his life in the public eye and chase publicity. “My agents would yell at me and say, ‘You got to have a publicist. I’d say: ‘There’s a publicist for the movie. Why do I have to pay a publicist? I’d rather save my money so I can go do an Off Broadway play.’”
Maybe the decision to stay off the grid is what makes John Turturro an amazing actor and a diamond in the rough streets of Hollywood.

The MTV Video Music Awards used to be a pop culture holiday. All of the music industry’s biggest singers, Hollywood’s biggest actors, and the fashion industry’s most popular stylists would travel and be a part of the epic event. Meanwhile, millions of teens would sit in front of their TV sets and see what their favorite pop-singer is up to.
Those days are now long and gone as the network reportedly suffers horrible ratings drops for the 2016 MTV VMAs. Sunday night’s telecast, which was aired across 11 different networks including VH1 and BET, featured performances from the music industry’s biggest celebrities including, Rihanna, Beyoncé, Kanye West and Future. But despite all of the A-list talent, the show only had 6.5 million viewers. That is down 34 percent from last year. And that is a huge problem.
Watching the MTV Video Music Awards, the show featured nearly everything you can possibly include in an award show including reality stars, and A-list talent. But, it appears a new generation of teenagers are no longer interested in what MTV has to offer. In fact, linear TV ratings have been steadily decreasing in the last ten years, since the ability to view TV shows on-demand became a widespread option. In addition, people are using their computers, laptops, and mobile devices to watch their favorite show.
For example, with the advancements in technology people no longer have to sit alone by themselves and watch TV. They can easily engage with millions of other people talking about the show right now on social media. And this is what exactly happened to the MTV VMAs. According to reports, the VMAs reportedly had nearly 63 million video streams, up 70 percent from last years’ numbers, and Facebook accounted for almost 46 million streams, an upward growth of nearly 1000% since last year. In addition, the hashtag #VMA was even the top global trending topic for 13 hours yesterday.
At the end of the day, people are not watching television the same way that they used to. Instead, the millennial generation is choosing to engage with others online, while streaming the content on their phones and computers. But when it comes to revenue, digital advertising does not make as much money as regular TV commercials, which is the biggest problem not only for MTV but for the entire TV industry as a whole.

The classic reality show that made me want to get my hair done and launch a career in the modeling industry is back. Sunday night, during the VMAs a teaser trailer for the premiere of the all-new America’s Next Top Model debuted online and it was amazing.
The teaser also revealed that the modeling show will premiere in December.
One of the biggest changes to the long-running show are the show’s judges and host.
Tyra Banks will no longer be putting the models through Top Model bootcamp. Instead, she will work as the show’s executive producer. In addition, the show ill be directed by Rita Ora, the British actor and pop singer.
Ora will work alongside celebrity judges Ashley Graham, Law Roach and Drew Elliot.
This is how Hollywood reacted to Gene Wilder’s death.
Gene Wilder is best known for his portrayal of Willy Wonka in Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory. Sadly, the legendary actor has died at the age of 83. After news outlets broke the news, celebrities took to Twitter to mourn and pay tribute to the actor who was an inspiration and role model to aspiring actors around the world.
Gene Wilder was one of the funniest and sweetest energies ever to take a human form. If there’s a heaven he has a Golden Ticket. ;^)

Here’s 10 things you did not know about Gene Wilder.
Gene Wilder was born Jerome Silberman in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to Jeanne (Baer) and William J. Silberman, who manufactured miniature whiskey and beer bottles. His father was a Russian Jewish immigrant, while his Illinois-born mother was of Russian Jewish descent.

But, it was a 1964 Broadway production of Mother Courage and Her Children that changed his life. According to IMDB, in its cast was Anne Bancroft, who was dating Mel Brooks at the time, and the relationship established between the two men eventually led to Wilder’s becoming part of Brooks’ “stock company” and was featured in several Mel Brooks’s productions. He would land his first feature film in Bonnie and Clyde which led to several award winning productions including an an Academy Award nomination as Best Supporting Actor in the movie The Producers.
In addition to Bonnie and Clyde, Wilder was known around the world for his role as Willy Wonka in Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory.

“Finding Steve McQueen” is based on the true story of the biggest bank heist in U.S. history and features an ensemble cast that includes Kate Bosworth, Forrest Whittaker, Travis Fimmel, William Fichther and many more!
The film focuses on a gang of close-knit thieves from Youngstown, Ohio, who are tapped by the Teamsters to steal $30 million in illegal campaign contributions and blackmail money from President Nixon. The thieves went to the wrong bank, hitting a United California Bank instead of Nixon’s home Bank of America branch in San Clemente and made off with an estimated $12 million. Seven of the eight conspirators were quickly caught but the getaway driver was able to flee and wasn’t arrested until 1980.

A mockumentary that debuted at San Diego’s Comic-Con explains why Thor was not in the last Captain America movie. And the mockumentary’s absurd humor is pretty damn entertaining.
After Avengers’ last rescue, Thor required some “me-time.” He moves to Australia, hangs out with a guy named Darryl and meets Bruce Banner for coffee. He also creates a crazy conspiracy theory about the Marvel universe.
As Vulture reports, Taika Waititi directed this short, and is directing the upcoming Thor: Ragnarok. So, expect to see this kind of humor and laughs in the next Thor movie.

In the case of Spider-Man: Homecoming’s Tom holland, he seems pretty damn intent on learning how to become Spider-Man as much as possible without the help of stunt performers. He can do some amazing flips but, in a video, posted on Instagram, Holland shows off his skills alongside Bobby Holland Hanton and it’s pretty damn incredible.
