Gwyneth Paltrow Received Addiction Tips from Robert Downey, Jr.

Gwyneth Paltrow

Gwyneth Paltrow ran into some obstacles while trying to identify with her character in Country Song.

"I just couldn't understand how you could be so drunk that you could wreck people's lives and then wake up the next day and pretend everything was fine," she said.

Gwyneth revealed how she prepped for the film in a recent interview.

Paltrow wanted real insight into addiction, and how it affects the user as well as those around them. So, she went to someone with real life experience: Iron Man co-star Robert Downey, Jr.

“He was really articulate about addiction and the psychology behind it. He really helped me a lot.”

Last Batman Movie for Christopher Nolan and Christian Bale?


Whether or not Tom Hardy plays a villain The Dark Knight Rises (btw - it appears he is), there's one thing we should know about the next Batman installment: It may be the last for Christopher Nolan and Christian Bale.

At least that's what they're saying now.

In a recent interview with E!, Bale said the follow-up to Dark Knight will likely be his last turn as the Caped Crusader. "This will be, I believe -- unless Chris [Nolan] says different -- the last time I'll be playing Batman."

Christopher Nolan Inspired by Classic Superman Film


Director is seeking inspiration from the 1978 Superman film.

Nolan, who is producing the upcoming Superman remake alongside his brother Jonah Nolan and David S. Goyer, revealed he aspires to achieve the same success as filmmaker Richard Donner did in the very first adaptation of the comic book story.

“I was hugely struck by the Donner films in the ‘70s when I was a kid. In 1978 I saw Superman and it had such an epic scope to it. It took on this incredible, iconic figure and gave that iconic figure an appropriate framing. It made quite an impression on me. It’s definitely one of my childhood touchstones on what epic cinema can be.”

Twilight Author Stephenie Meyer Visits Oprah

Stephenie MeyerTo a different age group, this interview could be bigger than the one with Sarah Palin.

In just a few days from now, Twilight author will be sitting on Oprah Winfrey’s stage. The chat, which comes just two weeks before New Moon finally debuts, will be the only one the writer grants during this promotional tour.

Meyer recently explained the reasoning behind her solo press interview on her blog. “You know I’ve been doing the hermit thing this last year, in so far as media is concerned, and I’m not changing that now, but I am making an exception. I’m doing this for a good reason: I am so pleased and amazed and thrilled with what Chris Weitz has done with New Moon that I want to talk about it, and to show my support for him. And since I’m only doing one interview, better make it big,” she wrote.

Look for Stephenie on The Oprah Winfrey Show this Friday, Nov. 13th.

Michael Caine Denies Johnny Depp Rumors


Poor Michael Caine—ever since he seemed to confirm the Johnny Depp-Riddler rumors, the poor guy has been out of the loop with everything these days!

In an interview with MTV (nearly a year ago with the same interviewer with which the deed was done), Caine realizes that he can’t trust the newspaper these days:

“We talked about Johnny Depp and all that, which is in the paper! We trusted the newspapers, and I got into so much trouble. They said, ‘Johnny Depp’s not in it. Philip Seymour Hoffman’s not in it. There’s no script, there’s nothing.’ They said, ‘Why did you say that?’ I said, ‘Because the reporter I was talking to had the newspaper, and it said it in the newspaper, and I thought you’d announced that.’ So they said, ‘Shut up.’”
