When two crazy families get stuck inside an apartment for a night, a missing dagger and a fire scare are the least of the problems. Netflix’s new Egyptian family drama Face to Face can be criticized for a lot of things, but not for a lack of entertainment value. The tension between the in-laws over the divorce settlement of their kids is an engaging watch you wouldn’t want to miss.

The Arconia has seen its fair share of dead bodies. Like Jessica Fletcher's quiet coastal town of Cabot Cove on Murder, She Wrote, this beautifully historic apartment building loves to attract murder.

And just like every True Crime fan or mystery lover, we're at the edge of our seats to solve it. From romances to financial schemes, the trio uncovers all the secrets. We want in!
Though with a fourth murder in a row at the same building, it's never too early to think of how the mysteries can keep growing. Plenty of reveals and secrets have been unearthed before Only Murders In The Building Season 4, so it's time for a little refresh.

There's no denying that Salma Hayek Pinault is something of a movie star. With roles in incontestably huge films — like Marvel's "Eternals" and, more recently, "Puss In Boots: The Last Wish" — she's enjoyed a varied Hollywood career. But there was a time when the actor's success was far from guaranteed: though she was a bona fide soap opera star when she made the trek from Mexico to the U.S., so much of her innate talent was lost in translation. "I came here thinking I spoke English," Pinault told Oprah in 2003. "Then I came here and realized how truly limited my English was, and it was very scary."
Becoming fluent was nearly "impossible" for Pinault — and once she did overcome the language barrier and her own struggles with dyslexia, there was still the matter of her accent. Pinault was consistently typecast in the early days of her career, either as "the bombshell" or "the help.

Back in 2012 when Steven Soderbergh directed the first “Magic Mike” based loosely upon star Channing Tatum’s experiences in Tampa, Fl, no one could have anticipated the actual empire that the film would inspire: two more films, the latest of which, “Magic Mike’s Last Dance,” opened February 10, a live revue in Vegas, a stage musical in London, and a short-lived reality competition series for HBO Max. What’s interesting is the way that all of those ventures seemed to overlap and inspire one another, leading to “Last Dance” focusing on the staging of a musical in London, in some cases transplanting similar routines from that theatrical production to the silver screen.
On the film’s opening day, “Magic Mike’s Last Dance” choreographers Alison Faulk and Luke Broadlick, who have worked with Tatum on the series since its beginning, spoke with Variety about the process of leaving everything out on the...

Actress Salma Hayek almost lost her trousers and flashed her derriere when a raunchy “Magic Mike” dance move went wrong. The 56-year-old actress stars opposite Channing Tatum in “Magic Mike’s Last Dance”, the third instalment in the stripper movie franchise, and she’s revealed she suffered an embarrassing mishap during rehearsals when her co-star almost ripped her jogging bottoms off to stop her falling – and she worried she’d forgotten to put on underpants, reports aceshowbiz.com.
During an appearance on “The Graham Norton Show”, Salma said: “It is very balletic and very sexy. I was terrified about trying to make it look easy, but it really needs strength in the body, which I do not have because I don’t work out.”

Los Angeles, Feb 9 (Ians) Actress Salma Hayek Pinault, who stars as Maxandra Mendoza in ‘Magic Mike’s Last Dance’, says her co-stars were “such great guys” who “were all hanging out with me” while filming.
The 56-year-old actress told ‘People’ she became good friends with her castmates who play the various strippers and, eventually, so did her husband French businessman Francois-Henri Pinault.
“My husband is not a jealous man,” she says.
“I used to call him all the time (from set) and say, ‘Oh my God, I feel so bad,’ because I had this predisposition about how the guys, the strippers were going to be. But they’re not. They’re lovely. They’re such great guys. And (my husband) goes, ‘Oh God, you’re becoming best friends with the strippers, aren’t you?’ And I said, ‘Yes!'”

"Puss in Boots: The Last Wish" is surprisingly one of the best animated movies of the year. It's a DreamWorks movie with an edgier-than-usual story about death and embracing life. It's inspired by spaghetti westerns, with action scenes resembling anime and visuals that play with 2D and 3D to resemble a storybook in its stylization. The sequel introduces us to an ensemble of fantastical characters that fit right into the heightened fairy-tale universe of the "Shrek" franchise, each with a unique personality and a deep desire that drives them to seek out a legendary wishing star for their own needs.
There's Goldie and the Three Bears, reimagined as a Guy Ritchie-esque criminal gang, and the Big Bad Wolf, who has a surprising alter-ego. Then there's Perrito, an original character and the tritagonist of the film. He's the ugliest character ever introduced in the "Shrek" universe, the most tragic, and the sweetest.

It wasn’t just Channing Tatum who had to bare all during “Magic Mike’s Last Dance.”
Co-star Salma Hayek revealed that her role was also “physically challenging,” especially when it came to the steamy lap dance sequence teased in the trailer. Hayek plays a wealthy socialite who partners with “Magic” Mike (Tatum) for a London burlesque show. Of course, the duo is also romantically involved as Mike shows off his moves and lifts Hayek out of her seat.
“It’s very physically challenging,” Hayek told Entertainment Tonight about mastering the sequence. “My goodness. You just wait to see. It’s just complicated.”
As for her role in “Last Dance,” Hayek could only tease that she plays a “strong woman” and enjoyed every second of production.
“You know what was my day going into the office? I would just sit around and watch, like, 12 men, semi-naked dancing and doing pirouettes,” Hayek said.

“You know what was my day going into the office? I would just sit around and watch, like, 12 men, semi-naked dancing and doing pirouettes,” Hayek said.

Alfred Molina says he saw Harvey Weinstein berate Salma Hayek on the set of Frida, with the former Hollywood producer and convicted rapist also giving him the cold shoulder after Molina compared the business prowess of Hayek to the producer.
The actor, who told The Independent in a recent interview that he did not witness any assaults, spoke about Weinstein’s behavior on the set of the film — specifically one “preposterous” instance in which Weinstein became enraged over Hayek’s spot-on performance.
After the disgraced former producer visited the Mexico set, he called up members of the film’s team “one by one” to his suite, where the actor says “he basically read the riot act to us.”
Molina added, “He’d seen some rushes, and he wasn’t happy with what he’d seen.”

Coming up with a story for “Puss in Boots: The Last Wish” 11 years after the first film came out presented director Joel Crawford with a bit of a challenge, but a specific idea helped to bring the story to life. “This idea of Puss being on his last life was such a great nugget and that’s something that’s resonated with me when I came on to this project,” he tells Gold Derby during our Meet the Experts: Film Animation panel (watch the exclusive video interview above).
Crawford enjoyed the absurdity of that nugget that this swashbuckling cat had run through eight lives and considered it a perfect fairy tale-like premise. “When you boil it down, he has one life and we as human beings only have one life. There’s something really deep and special about that opportunity to take the absurdity and put it with the reality.

Sam Rockwell was apparently left stunned after Harvey Weinstein brazenly snubbed Alfred Molina in a restaurant, two years before the disgraced movie mogul was exposed as a sexual predator.
The actor was having dinner with Molina shortly after the Spider-Man 2 actor subtly criticised Weinstein, two years ahead of the New York Times exposé that led to Weinstein’s rape conviction.
In a new interview with The Independent, Molina shared his experience of working with Weinstein while starring on the 2002 Miramax-distributed film Frida, which was led by Salma Hayek as Mexican painter Frida Kahlo.
Molina accused Weinstein of bullying Hayek, who was a co-producer on the film, and recounted one “preposterous” incident where Weinstein questioned why “she wasn’t playing ‘sexy’”.
Two years before the 2017 exposé, which featured Hayek’s allegations against Weinstein, Molina praised the actor’s abilities as a producer in public, stating: “If Salma had been white and male,...

If you’re coming back for one last ride, better make it count. Steven Soderbergh teased that in his return as director of “Magic Mike’s Last Dance,” the film is going all out to end with a massive dance sequence exceeding half an hour. That’s a lot of skin.
“We wanted to blow the dancing up in a big way,” Soderbergh said in a new interview with Empire magazine Wednesday. “We have this dance number with Channing [Tatum] and Salma [Hayek] right up front. And then the last 30-plus minutes of the movie are just this giant dance sequence.”
Soderbergh added that the sequence in question was shot in an old South London theater called the Chapman Grand which allowed him to stretch his experimentation, perhaps a good reason why he was willing to return for “Last Dance” after stepping aside for “Magic Mike Xxl.” And the way Soderbergh describes it,...

You have to give the "Magic Mike" movies this much credit, at least: They certainly know how to go out with a (*ahem*) bang.
When director Steven Soderbergh's first "Magic Mike" was released in 2012, I'm not sure anyone realized just how much of a phenomenon this franchise would eventually turn into. Beyond the novelty of giving anyone other than straight men some eye candy for a change, the entertaining and surprisingly heartfelt story of Channing Tatum's Michael "Magic Mike" Lane proved to be enough to sustain an entire trilogy of movies. After "Magic Mike Xxl" danced its way into the pleasure centers of countless viewers (/Film's Danielle Ryan once wrote all about the sequel masterpiece here), the series now comes to a triumphant close with Soderbergh once again behind the wheel for "Magic Mike's Last Dance."
Anyone expecting just a run-of-the-mill installment to close out this epic trilogy,...

Feature debut of Ehab Tarabieh, “The Taste of Apples is Red” features a very interesting main topic, as it focuses on the events that transpire among a small, intensely religious community whose people live in the Golan Heights, and believe in reincarnation, in a way that suggests that the number of their members always remains the same.
“The Taste of Apples is Red“ is screening at Thessaloniki International Film Festival
After an initial scene involving a mother and his son who seems to be the reincarnation of a soldier, we are introduced to the main protagonist, Kamel, a respected religious leader among the aforementioned community, who tries to keep things in balance in the wake of fierce battles of the Syrian Civil War. His decision about the mother and the child weighs heavily upon him, but the true tension comes when his brother, Mustafa, reappears on his doorstep, after missing for almost 50 years.

Hanadi Elya makes her feature film debut with this candid dramedy that exposes the skeletons in the closet of three very different women, all connected to one man, whose passing brings about a lesson in compassion with marital throes at the forefront. The Palestinian-Jordanian Director is a champion for women-centric thought-pieces that shine a light on the issues facing marginalized communities and with her first feature film, she offers just that, with a strong female cast leading the charge.

Matthew Perry isn’t rushing to act opposite Salma Hayek again anytime soon.
After filming 1997 romantic comedy “Fools Rush In” alongside Hayek, Perry detailed in his upcoming memoir “Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing,” available November 1, why Hayek’s “long-winded ideas” weren’t beneficial to him getting into character. Perry and Hayek play a couple who hastily tie the knot after a one-night stand leads to a pregnancy.
Perry wrote (via Entertainment Weekly) that he tried to shed the “funny sitcom actor” approach to filming coming from “Friends.” Perry said he attempted to brainstorm “some fun strategies to tap into real feelings and to be more of a leading man.”
“Salma had tried her best, too — she came into my trailer at the start of the shoot and said, ‘Let’s just spoon a little bit,'” Perry wrote. “I did my best Chandler impression — the double-take-and-sardonic-stare thing — and said,...

Salma Hayek got her week started off right with her second bikini snap in less than two days, and following a two-month swimwear hiatus.
Taking to her Instagram page for her latest share, the House of Gucci and Magic Mike 3 actress, 55, got in some ocean time as she posed deckside in front of a tropical-looking backdrop of greenery and seascape.
Donning a classy, navy fedora on her dark locks, which were kept down and appeared to be wet, Salma could be seen casually leaning against the railing as she displayed a flirty peek at her bikini as it showed through an open-faced, striped cover-up shawl.
Rocking the black two-piece that showed off her svelte figure, Salma looked ageless while enjoying what looked to be a final summer jaunt, a...

Salma Hayek is back in her swimwear and dazzling fans with her figure and low-key charm.
The MCU actress is looking better than ever at 55. In a Sunday share for her Instagram army, the Mexican-born sensation showed off her curves and her hat style, also channeling her love of social media hashtags.
Salma broke a fairly lengthy social media silence today by posing from a chic and airy indoor space adorned with wicker furnishings and near an outdoor terrace setup.
Snapping a selfie, Salma sent out a semi-smile while in a hot pink bikini, one she paired with a printed shawl for a classy finish.
Adding in a fun straw cowboy hat, the mom of one ditched the makeup for another #nomakeup moment, writing:
“Happy Sunday!!! Feliz domingo!!!!” She added a #sundayvibes and #nomakeup.
