Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them might not be out until November but it’s already landed two sequels, with the release date of the second film confirmed.

The second Harry Potter spin-off movie, which does not yet have a name, is set to land in cinemas on 16 November 2018.

If that wasn’t enough, the third adventure following Eddie Redmayne’s magizoologist Newt Scamander is expected to arrive in November 2020, according to Warner Bros.

And it sounds like things are going to get messy for our wand-wielding hero.

Jason Momoa, who should be your internet boyfriend when you get bored of Benedict Cumberbatch, totally stole the spotlight at the Suicide Squad premiere.

We’ve seen him as the fearsome Khal Drogo on Game Of Thrones and soon he will be the almighty Aquaman in the Justice League film.

But on the pink carpet in London he was the most adorable ball of fluff ever.

He wasn’t even promoting his movie, but we’re glad he was there to get all handsy with Superman himself, Henry Cavill.

According to Margot Robbie, Harley Quinn’s hot pants may well have been digitally altered in the Suicide Squad adverts to make them less revealing.

Fans watching the film for the first time have noted you see a lot more of Margot’s bum than was shown in many of the same clips used in trailers.

The actress, who told The New York Times she felt ‘self-concious’ in the supervillain’s outfit, thinks it’s perfectly plausible the ‘very small’ KNICKERS – let’s call a spade a spade – could have been stretched to… Read the full story

With his vivid green Gucci coat and pink trousers, actor Jared Leto certainly stood out from the crowd at the UK premiere of Suicide Squad.

But it seems that he’s had his eye on that particular garment for some weeks now – at least if his reaction to it at a recent fashion show is anything to go by.

The cast of Suicide Squad have reacted to the incredibly negative reviews being directed towards the film, and they’re unsurprisingly on the defensive.

DC’s highly-anticipated super-villain caper has been lambasted by critics with some even saying it’s worse than Marvel’s much-maligned Fantastic Four reboot. But the cast were out in force at the UK premiere to quash the film’s haters.

It’s been 15 years since she shot to fame as the geeky princess Mia Thermopolis – and Anne Hathaway has paid the perfect tribute to The Princess Diaries as it celebrates its anniversary.

The 2001 Garry Marshall movie catapulted Anne to fame as her first movie role, seeing her play the shy Mia who discovers she is a real-life princess in Genovia in Europe alongside her estranged grandmother, Queen Clarisse Renaldi, played by Julie Andrews.

And to mark the film’s 15th birthday this week on her Instagram page, she posted a gif of a classic scene from the film in which Mia is being taught how to dance by Joe (Hector Elizondo).

Alongside the clip she wrote: ‘It’s been 15 years (say it with me). SHUT UP!!!!! To all the fans who have loved Mia, Louie, Lily, Joe, Michael and, of course, Queen Clarisse, thank you from the bottom of my heart!

David Ayer’s Suicide Squad is on course for an August-best opening weekend in the US according to early box office reports, beating out Marvel’s Guardians Of The Galaxy.

The anti-superhero film starring Margot Robbie, Will Smith and Jared Leto has been savaged by critics who labelled it ‘puerile’ and a ‘dull chore’, but it appears that hasn’t stopped cinema-goers, with the film expected to rake in a whopping $140million (£105m) or more on its US opening weekend.

Jared Leto said he took inspiration from David Bowie when it came to channeling his inner sadist to play The Joker in current box office smash Suicide Squad.

The 44-year-old Oscar winner said he was looking to invoke the ‘elegance and class’ of The Thin White Duke to play the iconic super villain.

‘I spoke to a writer and we discussed David Bowie a bit, not necessarily the music of David, but his class, his elegance, his timelessness,’ Jared told NME.

The actor plays the Joker – the gangster boyfriend of Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn – in the much-hyped DC comics movie, which has been torn to shreds by movie reviewers since its release a few days ago.

And while he was happy to acknowledge what he described as a ‘very mixed response’ by critics, Jared seemed to suggest that because his part was cut down so much, he doesn’t feel so connected to… Read the full story
