Maleficent

Film Appearance0 Comments

In this fantasy fairy tale directed by Robert Stromberg, Jolie plays a beautiful, pure-hearted sprite with stunning black wings, who, as a child, is betrayed by her friend, the future king of the humans. Seeking revenge she places a terrible curse on his newborn child. Co-starring Elle Fanning, Sharlto Copley, Brenton Thwaites and Sam Riley. Asked if she thinks she was the perfect one for her role:

It is really funny when people say you’d be obvious for a great villain. She was just my favorite as a little girl. I was terrified of her but I was really drawn to her. I loved her. There were some discussions about it before I got the part, and I got a phone call from my brother who said, ‘You got to get your name on the list for this!’

Making the Rules

Film Appearance0 Comments

Thicke makes his film acting debut in Making the Rules, playing hairstylist Shaun, the old flame of protagonist Abby, played by Jamie Pressly. He tries to win her back, despite the fact that she is married. The film goes straight to DVD and On Demand. Directo Jimbo Lee says of the singer-turned-actor:

I guess Robin’s been trying to find a script to start his acting career, so they suggested him. He has great hair — (and) his character is a hairstylist, so I guess that sort of worked out.

Drum-off on ‘Fallon’

TV Appearance0 Comments

Ferrell and Smith appear on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon to put an end to their rivalry. The two wear matching outfits and speak as the other person in an interview with Fallon. Ferrell describes when he first heard of the “impostor”:

Yeah. I was jammin’. I was jammin’ with the Chili Peppers, with my guys. At our jamhouse. I’m like, ‘Flea, this is bull. I’m tired of not getting enough respect as Chad Smith.’ I’ll be honest, I’m a little high right now.

The two then engage in a drum-off (with Questlove acting as ghost drummer for Ferrell). The challenge was interrupted when Smith’s Red Hot Chili Peppers bandmates appeared for a rendition of (Don’t Fear) the Reaper.
