Films

Some animated series go on for so long, that they see several generations grow up, artists and drawing styles change, not to mention the dawning of computer animation. So, many of us no longer remember what these characters looked like when they first appeared on TV.

In making new films, directors often use scenes from existing movies, real-life events, and other pre-existing media. This requires even more painstaking work from the entire team, be it costume designers, camera operators, makeup artists, or, of course, the actors themselves. It is often more difficult to recreate the original successfully and convincingly than to create something new from scratch.

We know Adriano Celentano as a talented singer and comedic actor. But we know almost nothing about his personal life. While he’s been married to his wife for almost 60 years, she has become his muse and his support.

On average, a high-budget movie takes 871 days to produce. And the really interesting part is that most of this time is spent on post-production. The shooting itself takes around 100 days. During this time, the actors and the crew not only shoot all the necessary scenes, but they also have a lot of fun.

John Travolta turned down the role of Forrest Gump and Jack Nicholson considered it impossible to play a Sicilian man without actually being one, that’s why it was Al Pacino who got the role of Michael Corleone. Still, these actors managed to star in many movies that brought them success and fame. However, sometimes things turn out to be a bit different and the turndown of a role ruins all the hopes for a bright career.

World fame allows those who’ve reached it to leave their name written in history forever. Their movies continue to be re-watched, their books re-read, and their songs sung and re-sung. But the fruits of their labor are not the only legacy that these famous figures leave behind.

The fearless Bryan Mills in Taken, Qui-Gon Jinn in Star Wars, and Oscar in Schindler’s List — all of these roles were portrayed by the amazing Liam Neeson. But in real life, the actor is more like his character in Love Actually. Like Daniel, he became a single dad.

There are stars that can combine the role of parents with their careers, and even after having a baby, they keep going. But other stars are afraid of missing such important moment as their baby’s first steps or words, so they set priorities differently. Some leave the show business forever, others take a temporary break, and some push their work on the sidelines, making time for their families.

Some people spend the biggest part of their youth (and sometimes their whole life) trying to understand what profession they want to build their career in. But there are lucky ones who selected their path back as teenagers and even in childhood. We’re talking about young actors, of course. From their cradle days onward, they managed to unfold their talent and become famous.

When you’ve watched enough movies and series, you start noticing some clichés, popular twists, and common features. But sometimes, it’s not even the clichés that bother viewers, it‘s certain creative choices and inappropriate plot developments.

Most fans think that Harry Potter book characters look like the way they were shown in the film series of the same name. But what would they really look like if the movie makers decided to cast actors in full accordance with their description in the book? An artist under the nickname msbananaanna tried to answer this question and created the portraits of our favorite characters with the help of artificial intelligence.

After finishing school, it can be hard for many of us to choose our future profession. Even popular stars didn’t know they would be actors or singers. This is why some of them have law degrees, some of them are doctors and economists. And maybe, the world would never hear the names of Eva Longoria or Dwayne Johnson, if they decided to take the career path they were going to take.

In 2019, “they” was named the word of the year by Merriam-Webster. And this happened for a reason. This personal pronoun has taken on a special meaning in recent years. Those who don’t identify themselves with the binary world of women and men use it for self-identification. These people are called non-binary. In the United States, about 11% of LGBTQ adults identify as non-binary in terms of gender.

When crafting characters in film, movie creators pay a lot of attention to clothes. Clothes can help communicate characters’ traits to the audience, and sometimes indicate their development in the story on the screen. This can include even such small details as jewelry. Some of these pieces of jewelry have stories behind them that merit their own film.

Hayley Hasselhoff is 29 years old, and she has done a lot for the body positivity movement. She’s the daughter of actors David Hasselhoff and Pamela Bach, but she decided not to follow in her parents’ footsteps and became a plus-size model Instead. Today, Hayley encourages other women to accept themselves and their bodies.

In 2012, the first movie of The Hunger Games series was released. It has been 10 years since then, and everyone who was in the film has changed and reached new career peaks. Some of them continued their movie careers, others expanded their interests, and some even changed their professions.

It’s hard to believe it, but this year, Jennifer Aniston has turned 53. It seems that the star of Friends and The Morning Show hasn’t aged a bit in the past 20 years. She radiates the energy of youth, she looks stunning, and she enjoys herself like never before.

The link between your hairstyle and your confidence is real, and it’s been scientifically proven. This study was conducted by researchers at Yale University, who concluded that a “bad” hairstyle is likely to make people feel more insecure and become overly critical of themselves. This can happen to celebrities also, as we often see them drastically change their hairstyles.

It’s hard to believe it today, but before the first time Sophie Turner met Joe Jonas, she didn’t have any big expectations. But life had its own ideas for these two. And just 1 year later, the couple announced their engagement, and today, they already have 2 children.

Most children choose a different career path from their parents. But of course, there are other cases. A study shows that there is a connection between the job of close relatives and the choice of future profession. Some families have generations of doctors, teachers, and actors. It’s possible that the innate abilities and the right surroundings let the talent really show itself.
