“I was extremely scared”: Jason Momoa Was Terrified to Work With Tom Cruise’s Ex-Wife Nicole Kidman in $1.1B DC Movie for a Surprising Reason


Jason Momoa is one of the fewest DCEU names who have seen better days in the universe. Aquaman proved to be the highest-grossing DCEU movie and also received positive reactions from most of the fans. The 2018 movie’s casting was also one of the main highlights of the movie having names like Nicole Kidman, Patrick Wilson, Willem Dafoe, and Dolph Lundgren among many others.
But it was surprising for the fans when it was revealed that this magnificent casting troubled Jason Momoa. While the Arthur Curry star repeatedly appreciated his co-stars and acknowledged having an amazing experience with them, he was particularly terrified of working alongside Kidman.

Why was Jason Momoa terrified of working with Nicole Kidman?It must be remembered that there has never been any bad situation between the Aquaman lead and Nicole Kidman. Jason Momoa also took to several interviews to admit one of his best working experiences with Tom Cruise’s ex. But along with that, the experience also made the star afraid as for the first time, he worked with someone of that stature.
Nicole Kidman played the role of Queen Atlanna in the 2018 movie who is the mother to Momoa’s lead hero and the former Queen of Atlantis. When the 43-year-old actor was asked about his experience with the Oscar-winning actress, he couldn’t stop speaking about how blessed he felt. But along with that, he was also afraid as never before he worked with a star of such a level.

“I was extremely scared because I was like, ‘Oh my God, she’s so amazing.’ I’ve never worked with anyone that came close to an Academy Award. She was just this amazing woman and one of the greatest acting experiences I’ve ever had.”
Jason Momoa also praised The Hours actress by admitting that watching her doing her job with ease was one of the most beautiful things. Even though a handful of audiences complained claiming Kidman was too young to play Atlanna, Aquaman went on to earn around $1.1 billion worldwide.

As the 2018 James Wan directorial is heading to its sequel scheduled to be released this year, Nicole Kidman is set to reprise her role in Aquaman and the Last Kingdom. Although the movie has already been subjected to several controversies, recent statements by the director show that the makers are desperate to bring back the audiences to DC movies.
What did James Wan say about Aquaman 2?

One of the leading troubles with Aquaman and the Last Kingdom was Amber Heard’s casting as Mera. The actress’ image is anything but good following the highly publicized trial with ex-husband Johnny Depp and the fans desperately demanded a recast. But the makers instead opted to reduce her scenes.
More problems rose as early test screening reports suggested the movie to be so bad that the audiences couldn’t even endure it to last. This led to numerous reshoots in which James Gunn’s DC takeover also played a major role. As revealed by James Wan himself, the movie went through many changes as the studio constantly experienced changes before Gunn and Safran finally took over as the co-heads of the new DCU. Now recent statements by Wan suggest that he has taken a standalone approach for Aquaman 2 so that it can stay away from the DCEU-DCU confusion.
“Well, Aquaman – even the first film – has always been a very stand-alone film. That was always our approach: that it kind of lives in its own world, and that’s kind of how we’ve approached The Lost Kingdom as well.”
James Gunn also announced that the movie will directly lead to his new DCU which will be kicked off by Superman: Legacy. It is also reported that numerous changes have been done to the story to fit it into their new plans. But it can’t be denied that the Jason Momoa movie will face a huge challenge after The Flash’s box-office disaster even after having so much hype.
Aquaman and the Last Kingdom will hit theaters on December 20, 2023.

‘I am officially off the market’: When Margot Robbie revealed she made the ‘conscious’ decision of not dating actors


Margot Robbie revealed her decision to not date actors because of the media scrutiny that came with a public relationship of two high-profile actors
Back in 2015, A-lister Margot Robbie made a declaration that she would not be dating any actors. The actress may have alluded to her fiance Tom Ackerley, who she married the following year in 2016. In an exclusive interview with Marie Claire, she revealed that being in a relationship as an actor herself came with its own set of challenges. She believed that dating someone who was popular would add on to the media scrutiny.

Margot Robbie opened up on why she made a conscious decision to not date actorsTalking to Marie Claire, she claimed, “I am officially off the market.” She then shared the reasoning behind her decision and added, “I made a conscious decision not to date actors.” She continued to explain, “But not because I hate actors. That’s a nasty generalization to make, and that’s not the case. People take such an interest in your love life when you have a profile, it puts a lot of stress on a relationship.”
The Barbie actress continued, “So two people with profiles, I figure it’s just double the amount of scrutiny, and I’d like to avoid that at all costs.” This came after reports of her locking lips with Tarzan co-star Alexander Skarsgard started making rounds. It was reported that she was caught kissing the actor during the Sundance Film Festival.

Margot Robbie revealed she opted for a minimal lifestyle even after becoming an actorIn the interview, Robbie also opened up about how she was adapting to fame. She shared, “I have a normal 24-year-old life. If I were a waitress, I’d probably have the exact same lifestyle. I’d go to the same clubs I go to already, live in the same house with the same housemates, hang out with the same people.”
However, Margot Robbie tied the knot with Tom Ackerley who is an English producer and actor. The duo met on the sets of 2013 movie Suite Francaise where Tom was working as an assistant director. Post marriage, both of them launched their production company LuckyChap Entertainment.

‘Rocky’ Was Quite Different In His Original Screenplay, Sylvester Stallone Claims


Sylvester Stallone took his friend’s advice on a rewrite of the original screenplay to Rocky. A few tweaks later, he was on his way to major success.
In the new Netflix documentary Sly, Stallone discussed how he initially conceived of the project, which had a much harder edge. In the early version, Rocky was depicted as a “thuggish” character, inspired by Martin Scorsese’s crime drama, Mean Streets.

But Stallone’s perspective changed when a friend read the script and thought the boxer was too cruel for audiences to actually care about him.
Stallone recalled her crying.

“She goes, ‘I hate Rocky. I hate him. He’s cruel. He hits people. He beats them up.’”
Stallone took it to heart, and asked what he could do to soften the character.

“I said, ‘what if you stop short of it?’ Like, maybe he almost did. He could have, that’s his job, but he doesn’t?’ ‘That’d be nice,’” he added. “I said, ‘What if he had a girlfriend or something?’ ‘Yeah, that’s nice.’ So I go back, start writing that: ‘Girlfriend. Nice.’”
$117 million in box office later, a franchise was born.

Stallone also revealed that actor Dolph Lundgren sent him to the hospital during one fight scene in Rocky IV.
“Dolph Lundgren… he pulverized me,” Stallone says in the documentary. “Later that night, my heart started to swell—which happens when the heart hits the chest—and then my blood pressure went up to 260, and they thought I was going to be talking to angels. Next thing I know, I’m in intensive care, where I’m surrounded by nuns, and I thought, ‘OK, that’s curtains.’”
Stallone was in the hospital for nine days following the incident, praying for “one more round.”
“For the first minute of the fight, it is going to be a free-for-all,” Stallone told Lundgren. The Swedish actor joked in a separate interview that all he did was “obey orders,” explaining, “[Stallone] was the boss. I did what he told me.”
Doctors allegedly told Stallone that he received a blow to the ribs that made his heart rattle around in his ribcage, a condition typically seen in head-on collisions. “I did hit a bus, of sorts,” Stallone joked.
