Vin Diesel Honors Late Paul Walker On What Would’ve Been The Actor’s 50th Birthday


“I miss you,” Diesel wrote on Instagram. “I love you and I will continue to honor the beautiful soul you are.”
Family really is forever. Vin Diesel paid tribute to the late Paul Walker (his brother “for eternity”) on Instagram this week, honoring what would have been the actor’s 50th birthday.

“The world isn’t the same, brother,” Diesel — who played the role of Dominic Toretto opposite Walker’s Brian O’Conner for a total of seven Fast & Furious movies — wrote in the caption (the photo he shared was of himself and Walker, taken the night before the two visited Haiti following the 2010 earthquake). “As a species, one might say we are struggling. But I think of you, and I smile and know everything is going to be alright.”
Walker tragically passed away in November 2013 as the result of a fatal car crash. He was 40 at the time. “I miss you,” Diesel concluded. “I love you, and I will continue to honor the beautiful soul you are.”

In the years since the actor’s untimely death, Diesel has more than lived up to his role as godfather to Walker’s daughter, Meadow, walking her down the aisle at her wedding and including her in the production of Fast X.

Who did Paul Walker play in the Fast Saga?Walker played the leading role of Brian O’Conner, a charismatic and resourceful FBI agent who manages to infiltrate Dom’s crew of underground street racers and part-time thieves. Brian was supposed to bring the robbers to justice, but didn’t count on falling in love with Mia Toretto (Jordana Brewster), which eventually led him to abandon his life as a federal lawman.
Walker appeared in every Fast film (save for the mostly-standalone Tokyo Drift) through Furious 7. When he passed away before production could be completed on the seventh installment, Walker’s two brothers — Caleb and Cody — stepped in to help complete certain scenes. The blockbuster famously paid homage to Walker’s legacy with a montage set to Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth’s “See You Again.”

Brian is still alive in the Fast universe — his absence explained by the fact that he settled down to raise a family with Mia and is typically said to be protecting the kids, or his family, off-screen.
What’s next for the Fast & Furious moviesAn eleventh Fast & Furious movie (slated for a spring 2025 release date) is currently on the way along with a second Hobbs-centric spinoff. Fast X’s mid-credits stinger set the stage for the latter, which will bridge the narrative gap between 10 and 11. As for Fast X, it will stream exclusively on Peacock starting September 15.

‘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.
