"The next James Bond won't be white" according to one industry executive as the hunt for the next 007 intensifies.

Two years since No Time To Die was released, Bond kingpins Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli do not have all the time in the world to decide on the trajectory for the character of Bond.

Despite all the gossip and guesswork, Pinewood’s best kept secret holds true with insiders divided over the next Bond’s background, skin tone, acting CV and accent.

Universal Studios Hollywood is teaming up with Los Angeles Pride to host an all-ages after-hours “Pride” celebration at the theme park.

The June 8 event will feature photo ops with beloved children’s characters and drag shows.

The box office numbers and audience reviews for “woke” movies have been tanking—and efforts to negate that problem are clearly part of the Hollywood machine’s promotion budget these days. This has never been more obvious than in the case of the live-action release of Disney’s “The Little Mermaid.”

The Internet Movie Database (IMDb), one of the top sites people turn to in order to decide whether or not they want to see a film, has taken unorthodox measures to curb the influx of terrible reviews the movie is getting.

Black actors and screenwriters have accused the showrunners of hit TV show Lost of creating a 'toxic' and 'racist' work environment.  

The series, that followed the lives of survivors of a plane crash as they struggled to exist on a mysterious island, became an instant hit when it aired in 2004. 

At its peak the show brought in an average of 16 million viewers per episode, running for six series before wrapping in 2010.  

Jane Fonda called for men to face “arrest and jail,” blaming white men specifically for effects from the “climate crisis,” at a high-profile film festival over the weekend.

“It is a tragedy that we have to absolutely stop. We have to arrest and jail those men — they’re all men [behind this],’ Fonda, 85, said at the Cannes Film Festival on Saturday. The longtime far-left activist added there, “would be no climate crisis if there was no racism.”

Comedy legend John Cleese says he refuses to remove the famous “Loretta” transgender scene from Monty Python’s Life of Brian for the stage adaptation of the classic film.

On social media last Thursday, Cleese said that a journalist recently spread rumors that he would be removing the famous scene from all future adaptations of the film.

During a discussion at the recent Cannes Film Festival this year, Jane Fonda blamed racism and White men for climate change, also saying that the environmental crisis would not exist without the patriarchy.

John Cleese refused to bend the knee to the outrage mob who called for a joke to be removed from an upcoming stage version of Monty Python’s "Life Of Brian." The controversial scene features a man claiming that he is a woman and he can have a baby.

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny was the final gamble for Kathleen Kennedy and Lucasfilm. With every other franchise and property already sunk, it was their last shot at success. And if the first batch of reviews are anything to go by, the gamble didn't pay off.
