Based on Jack El Hai’s book The Nazi and the Psychiatrist, Nuremberg will center on American psychiatrist Douglas Kelley (Malek), who found himself in a complex battle of wits with Hitler’s right-hand man Hermann Göring (Crowe), after being tasked to determine whether Nazi prisoners are fit to stand trial for their war crimes.

Vanderbilt is coming on board as writer and director, and he can’t wait to head to Hungary in February to shoot this promising historical drama.

“What an absolute honor it is to be working with such a tremendously talented group of actors. Our partners at Bluestone and Walden have been incredibly supportive, and I cannot wait to bring this amazing true story to the screen,” said Vanderbilt in a statement.

Russell Crowe starred in The Pope’s Exorcist earlier this year, and we’ll soon see him in Kraven the Hunter. Rami Malek made a memorable cameo in Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer and will next star in the spy thriller The Amateur. As for Michael Shannon, he recently reteamed with Jeff Nichols for The Bikeriders, in addition to being attached to Joshua Oppenheimer’s The End.

What makes their involvement so extraordinary is that all four will make their hosting debuts, despite the fact they’re no strangers to the SNL stage. Jason Sudeikis was even a cast member of the show from 2005 to 2013, before embarking on a solo career and winning an Emmy for Ted Lasso.

Owen Wilson previously appeared on SNL as his Zoolander character Hansel alongside Ben Stiller, but this will be his first solo appearance. Kim Kardashian and Rami Malek were both poked fun of by the comedy show, but this will be their first time to make an appearance in person.

Russel is best known for his work in the Oscar-winning films American Hustle and Silver Linings Playbook. Most recently he directed Joy starring Jennifer Lawrence.

Malek won an Oscar for his portrayal of Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody and he’s set to star in the James Bond sequel No Time to Die as Safin, which is set to debut on April 2. His next film to premiere is the psychological thriller The Little Things, which also stars Denzel Washington and is being released on January 29.

Saldana appeared in Avatar, Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame, which were the highest-grossing movies ever. She’s set to reprise her role as Neytiri in James Cameron’s Avatar 2, which hasn’t received a release date. The actress is also returning as Gamora in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 with Chris Pratt and Dave Bautista.

Production is currently underway in Los Angeles and no release date has been announced yet.

When the Mr. Robot actor played Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody, he was accompanied by Lucy Boynton who starred as Mary Austin.

Freddie had referred to Mary as “the love of his life” and even though he was gay, he regarded her as his common-law wife and left his home to her in his will.

It appears now as though love also blossomed behind the scenes with the film’s two stars…

Rami, who spends most of his time working in the US, reportedly often went to visit the 24-year-old actress in London.

He finally confirmed his relationship with the Sing Street star while accepting the Breakthrough Performance Award at the Palm Springs International Film Festival’s Film Awards Gala.

“Thank you, Lucy Boynton. You have been my ally, my confidant, you are my love. I appreciate you so much,” the 37-year-old said.

We’re pleased he’s found somebody to love.

Malek took home the award for “Best Performance By An Actor In A Motion Picture – Drama” at the ceremony last night (January 6). He beat the likes of Bradley Cooper (A Star Is Born) and Lucas Hedges (Boy Erased).

When accepting the award, Malek dedicated his win not to his friends and family, but to the legends of Queen. He finished his acceptance speech by exclaiming “this is for you… gorgeous” and blowing a kiss to the late Freddie Mercury.

“To you, Brian May, to you, Roger Taylor, for ensuring that authenticity and inclusivity exist in the music and in the world and in all of us,” he declared.

“Thank you to Freddie Mercury for giving me the joy of a lifetime. I love you, you beautiful man. This is for – and because of – you, gorgeous.”

Rami Malek has been chosen as the recipient of this year’s Palm Springs International Film Festival for his acclaimed performance as Queen’s frontman Freddie Mercury in the biopic film, Bohemian Rhapsody.

“In the film Bohemian Rhapsody, Rami Malek fully brings to life and embodies musical legend Freddie Mercury, in what is truly an outstanding performance for this fine actor,” said festival Chairman Harold Matzner. “For his portrayal that is garnering much critical acclaim, it is our honor to present the 2018 Breakthrough Performance Award to Rami Malek.”

Past recipients of the award include Mahershala Ali, Mary J. Blige, Marion Cotillard, Jennifer Hudson, Felicity Huffman, Brie Larson, Lupita Nyong’o, David Oyelowo, Rosamund Pike and Jeremy Renner. According to Deadline, in the years Ali, Cotillard, Hudson, Larson and Nyong’o were honored, they went on to win an Oscar.

The Queen biopic is on track to be the biggest music biopic of all time, after earning the second biggest opening for a music biopic ever, behind 2015’s Straight Outta Compton ($60.2 million).

The musical biopic about the iconic British rock band has rocked its audience to the tune of an estimated $50 million opening weekend dethroning the also hugely successful Halloween as the No. 1 film in North America. The film exceeded expectations bringing in a lot more than the estimations that projected it’d bring in between $35 to $40 million debut weekend.

While critical reviews are mixed, Rami Malek’s portrayal of the band’s frontman Freddie Mercury has received critical acclaim. The film has received a 95% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. 

See the weekend’s box office figures below:

1. Bohemian Rhapsody — $50 million

2. The Nutcracker and the Four Realms — $20 million

3. Nobody’s Fool — $14 million

4. A Star Is Born — $11.1 million

5. Halloween — $11 million

In case you missed it, the Mr. Robot actor will be rocking you as he plays Freddie Mercury in the Queen biopic, Bohemian Rhapsody.

Rami’s performance has already earned him heaps of praise from critics who believe that he brought the lead singer to life in the most charismatic manner.

“[It was] kind of the gun-to-the-head moment,” he told The Guardian about accepting the part. “What do you do? And I like to think if it’s a fight or flight situation, I’m going to fight. The scariest endeavors that I’ve chosen to take in my life have been the most fulfilling and rewarding. And this has proven to defend that equation.”

Freddie joined Queen in 1970 and remained the lead vocalist until his death from AIDS-related pneumonia in 1991.

“It’s an arduous thing to tell someone’s life in just two hours,” said Rami. “What’s the nature of celebrating a life? Definitely not avoiding his death in any way, or what caused his death, which is the AIDS virus. But I think if you don’t celebrate his life, and his struggles, and how complicated he was, and how transformative he was — and wallow instead in the sadness of what he endured and his ultimate death — then that could be a disservice to the profound, vibrant, radiant nature of such an indelible human being.”

Bohemian Rhapsody opens on the 24th of October.

Devoted fans were heartbroken after receiving the news, but it’s important to remember this was a plan from the start. Showrunner Sam Esmail never wanted Mr. Robot to drag on forever. He always had a specific conclusion in mind and felt it’s finally time to share it with the whole world. USA Network didn’t want to say goodbye to one of their biggest hits to date, but agreed to do so because they had too much respect for the story Esmail wanted to tell.

“From the beginning, Mr. Robot proved to be a show unlike any other on television, capturing the zeitgeist of our modern times with a unique point of view and definitive vision. Working with Sam and the entire cast and crew has been nothing short of incredible – and we can’t wait to reveal the complete Mr. Robot story,” said USA Network president Chris McCumber.

Mr. Robot follows a young hacker who plays a crucial role in overthrowing the corrupt corporation he works for and must deal with the aftermath of his actions. It stars Rami Malek and Christian Slater, who received several accolades for their career-defining roles as Elliot Alderson and Mr. Robot.
