Almost all of us born in the 90s have grown up watching The Powerpuff Girls, a popular superhero animated series about three girls who have individual powers and they use it to save the world.&nbsp;

Well, the animated series is now getting a new lease of life as it’s being adapted into a live-action series by the CW.&nbsp;

Earlier, actors who will play the powerpuff girls were revealed and now another major character has been revealed. According to Variety, Donald Faison has been cast for the pilot as Professor Drake Utonium. The character is described as quirky, debonair, and a pinch narcissistic. He is a scientific genius who is immensely proud of the three extraordinary girls he created in his lab. Staring down a midlife crisis, Professor Utonium is determined to repair his relationships with his now-adult daughters.

The series is now simply titled Powerpuff. Based on the Cartoon Network series created by Craig McCracken, the new show sees the little superheroes as disillusioned twenty-somethings who resent having lost their childhood to crime-fighting. The three girls are Chloe Bennet as Blossom, Dove Cameron as Bubbles, and Yana Perrault as Buttercup.

The Powerpuff Girls pilot will be directed by Maggie Kiley and is written by Diablo Cody and Heather Regnier. It is bankrolled by Berlanti Productions and Vita Vera Films in association with Warner Bros. Television.&nbsp;

In a working-class neighbourhood of Rome, crowds gather in front of a pastry shop window to see sumptuous Easter eggs turned into works of art.

Laid out like brightly coloured pieces of jewellery, each of Walter Musco's chocolate eggs is created as a tribute to a particular artist.

One is adorned with two people holding up a heart, after US pop artist Keith Haring, while another is crafted all in yellow with slashes reminiscent of Argentine-Italian painter Lucio Fontana.

"It's a simple idea -- I'm really passionate about art and I expanded my field to include literature, music and cinema," Musco told AFP.

The 47-year-old Roman, wearing an impeccable white chef's uniform, has been making these kind of eggs for a decade and has now put a selection on show ahead of the Easter weekend.

The eggs on display are the "ones that have pleased me the most", and include one decked with a dove like the bird in Robert Mapplethorpe's famous photo of Patti Smith, and a red dressed egg inspired by fashion designer Azzedine Alaia.

Each of these eggs will set you back between 150 and 400 euros, depending on how long they take to make.

But you don't have to eat them, and if looked after, they can last for years.

"The main thing is to keep them out of the heat, so not next to a chimney or a radiator, or near a window exposed to the sun. There's no problem up to about 26 or 27 degrees celsius," Musco said.

- Self-taught - 
The eggs on display are all for sale, excepting a few which are part of private collections of clients. But customers must buy them in person due to the risk of damage if sent by post.

Musco uses a 55 percent dark chocolate from France for his eggs, making shells that he puts together before adding the decorations -- all of them edible.

In his laboratory in the basement of the pastry shop in the Tor Marancia district in southern Rome, he is keen to show off his skills.

Armed with a warm knife, he carves designs into the chocolate with the concentration of a surgeon.

"I am self-taught. I had an art gallery years ago, I mainly sold African, South-East Asian, Oceanic and Australian Aboriginal art," he said.

"Then I developed this passion for another form of more Eurocentric art," he added, smiling.

When choosing his inspirations, he looks at "everything that is abstract and not obvious to understand, but has a big emotional impact".&nbsp;

In the future, he wants to keep making his eggs but in direct collaboration with artists, "a way to exchange opinions and ideas, and thus evolve!".

How do you like your eggs? Rome chef's elegant answer for Easter

Britain's Glastonbury Festival announced Wednesday a livestreamed concert in May at its famous southwest English farm site, after the pandemic led to the blockbuster event's cancellation for the second consecutive summer.

The five-hour ticketed virtual show on May 22 will include performances by artists like Coldplay, Wolf Alice and Michael Kiwanuka from well-known stages around Worthy Farm, including the Stone Circle and Pyramid field.

Organiser Emily Eavis, who announced in January that the annual event was cancelled for the second year in a row, said it would be "like the festival but without people".

"We're going to take you on a journey through all of those spots that you know, you recognise from Worthy Farm," she told BBC radio.

"We're very excited to be able to show the farm in a way that people have never really seen it, with these incredible artists."

Tickets for the global livestream event, which will be broadcast across four separate time zones, will cost £20 ($28, 23 euros), with Eavis adding there will be "a number of unannounced surprise performances".

It will be interspersed by a spoken word narrative, "written and delivered by some very special guests, guiding festival-goers on a journey through the sacred valley in Somerset", according to the official Glastonbury website.

The festival, held on a dairy farm in Somerset, southwest England, was forced to cancel in 2020 -- the year of the event's 50th anniversary -- because of coronavirus restrictions after some 135,000 people had bought tickets.

Headliners had included pop superstar Taylor Swift and Beatles icon Paul McCartney.

Organisers had hoped to stage the event in 2021, but reversed course after Britain saw a surge in coronavirus infections, hospitalisations and deaths at the start of the year.

There have been warnings from the music sector that the pandemic could devastate the industry over the long-term, and annual summer festivals could disappear for good without more government support.

Glastonbury organisers to livestream May concert from site

Sweden's H&amp;M said Wednesday it wanted to regain the trust of people in China after a boycott over its decision to stop sourcing cotton from Xinjiang, but it came under renewed fire on Chinese social media.

H&amp;M and other fashion brands have been pilloried in China for statements voicing concern about allegations of forced labour in cotton fields in the far west region.

Chinese celebrities and tech firms pulled partnerships with H&amp;M, Nike, Adidas, Burberry and Calvin Klein. H&amp;M was even erased from Chinese shopping apps.

"We are working together with our colleagues in China to do everything we can to manage the current challenges and find a way forward," H&amp;M said in a statement.

"We are dedicated to regaining the trust and confidence of our customers, colleagues, and business partners in China," it said.

Rights groups say more than one million Uyghurs and other mostly Muslim ethnic minorities have been held in internment camps in Xinjiang, where they have also been forced to work in factories.

"We want to be a responsible buyer, in China and elsewhere, and are now building forward-looking strategies and actively working on next steps with regards to material sourcing," H&amp;M said.

H&amp;M had announced its decision to stop getting cotton from Xinjiang last year, but its statement resurfaced last week as China traded sanctions and recriminations with Western nations over the troubled region.

The company was lambasted again Wednesday on Weibo, China's tightly controlled equivalent of Twitter.

The hashtag for "H&amp;M's latest statement doesn't mention Xinjiang" was the top search on Weibo, with more than 35 million views.

- 'Very important market - 
H&amp;M makes around six percent of its revenue in China, which is home to nearly 10 percent of its stores.

China had become H&amp;M's third biggest market before the boycott.

The company has not released the figures on the financial impact of the boycott or which measures it has taken in response to the controversy.

"China is a very important market to us and our long-term commitment to the country remains strong," H&amp;M said, noting it has been present in the country for more than 30 years.

The statement was issued on the sidelines of quarterly results which showed a net loss of 1.07 billion kronor (104 million euros, $123 million) in the December to February period due to the coronavirus pandemic, with a 27 percent drop in revenue.

In late March, about 1,500 of the company's 5,000 stores were temporarily closed due to coronavirus restrictions, H&amp;M said.

Sales, however, jumped 55 percent in March compared to the same month last year.

The company said it was expecting a strong recovery this year as conditions around the pandemic improve.

Australian Olympians were the latest to be embroiled in the row on Wednesday as the country revealed its uniforms for the upcoming Tokyo Games.

The Australian Olympic committee faced criticism as it rolled out ASICS-branded sportswear, with the company facing questions over its use of cotton from the Xinjiang region.

The vice president of the olympic committee said it had been assured that none of the cotton came from that region.

Millie Bobby Brown was recently seen in the hugely popular ‘Godzilla vs. Kong’ that starred her as Madison, a role with which she made her feature debut. She had first played the character in the 2019 film ‘Godzilla: King of the Monsters’.&nbsp;

Talking about her role, <a href="https://www.wionews.com/topics/millie-bobby-brown">Millie Bobby Brown</a> said, "This film, specifically, I really wanted to make it authentic and a coming of age story of a young girl trying to find her way through this madness. I loved coming back to this character, especially because she's so feisty and she's very much like me."

The young actress added that she especially enjoys such characters. She likes to play female characters who "discover and [do their] research and are intelligent and smart and curious".

On the CGI and working with technology in films, Millie said, "You have to smile then you have to frown and you have to scream, and you have to act surprised and they take like a thousand pictures, it's insane. And they do it all at once and it flashes and then you leave and then they have me 3D pulling all different facial expressions for the CGI in case they have to add me into any of the stuff."

Directed by Adam Wingard, ‘Godzilla vs Kong’ features a large ensemble cast including Kyle Chandler, Eiza González, Alexander Skarsgård, Rebecca Hall, and Demián Bichir.

‘Godzilla vs. Kong’ is playing in theaters now and will be available to stream on March 31 on HBO Max.&nbsp;

Millie Bobby Brown on 'Godzilla vs. Kong' character: She's very much like me

`GOT` is headed to Broadway!

The HBO show `Game of Thrones`, which left behind an undeniable legacy as one of the most popular series of all times, is getting its own stage play.

As per The Hollywood Reporter, series creator George R.R. Martin is developing a stage play for Broadway, London`s West End, and Australia that will focus on a historic and pivotal scene from `Game of Thrones` lore that fans of the show did not get to see on screen.

The play, which has not been titled yet, will be set during the Great Tourney at Harrenhal, where Prince Rhaegar Targaryen crowned Lyanna Stark as the queen of love and beauty.

"The play will for the first time take audiences deeper behind the scenes of a landmark event that previously was shrouded in mystery," the play`s official description reads, according to the outlet. "Featuring many of the most iconic and well-known characters from the series, the production will boast a story centered around love, vengeance, madness and the dangers of dealing in prophecy, in the process revealing secrets and lies that have only been hinted at until now," the play`s official description added.

In Martin`s book series, the tourney proved pivotal and scandalous as Rhaegar was already married and had two children at the time of the tourney, and Lyanna was betrothed to Robert Baratheon. After the tourney, Rhaegar and Lyanna escaped together, causing Robert`s Rebellion, which ended Targaryen`s rule and spurred the events of the HBO series.

"The seeds of war are often planted in times of peace," Martin said in a statement via THR.

"Few in Westeros knew the carnage to come when highborn and smallfolk alike gathered at Harrenhal to watch the finest knights of the realm compete in a great tourney, during the Year of the False Spring. It is a tourney oft referred during HBO`s Game of Thrones, and in my novels, A Song of Ice &amp; Fire...and now, at last, we can tell the whole story...on the stage," he added.

While no characters have been announced for the play, the book series describes the Great Tourney at Harrenhal to have included a young Ned Stark, Jaime Lannister, Prince Oberyn Martell, Robert Baratheon, Princess Elia Martell, the noble knight Ser Barristan Selmy and others. So it`s safe to say that some of the iconic characters may be revived! Beloved characters from the series like Sansa Stark, Jon Snow, Daenerys Targaryen and Arya Stark weren`t born around the time of the event.

The stage adaptation of Martin`s popular world is being produced by Simon Painter and Tim Lawson alongside Killburn Live. Martin`s new stage play comes after he closed on a new five-year massive overall deal with HBO to create new content centred on his fantasy series for the network.

HBO is already set to debut a new `GOT` prequel titled `House of the Dragon`, which is expected to premiere in 2022. At least five other projects are in development.

"Few in Westeros knew the carnage to come when highborn and smallfolk alike gathered at Harrenhal to watch the finest knights of the realm compete in a great tourney, during the Year of the False Spring. It is a tourney oft referred during HBO`s Game of Thrones, and in my novels, A Song of Ice & Fire...and now, at last, we can tell the whole story...on the stage," he added. While no characters have been announced for the play, the book series describes the Great Tourney at Harrenhal to have included a young Ned Stark, Jaime Lannister, Prince Oberyn Martell, Robert Baratheon, Princess Elia Martell, the noble knight Ser Barristan Selmy and others. So it`s safe to say that some of the iconic characters may be revived! Beloved characters from the series like Sansa Stark, Jon Snow, Daenerys Targaryen and Arya Stark weren`t born around the time of the event. The stage adaptation of Martin`s popular world is being produced by Simon Painter and Tim Lawson alongside Killburn Live. Martin`s new stage play comes after he closed on a new five-year massive overall deal with HBO to create new content centred on his fantasy series for the network. HBO is already set to debut a new `GOT` prequel titled `House of the Dragon`, which is expected to premiere in 2022. At least five other projects are in development.

Kirsten Dunst and Jesse Plemons are expecting their second child.

The Spider Man girl revealed her pregnancy news via a cover image for W Magazine’s annual Directors issue. The issue casts ‘Marie Antoinette’ helmer Sofia Coppola’s muses including Kirsten Dunst, Rashida Jones and Elle Fanning.

The magazine cover has Kirsten sitting gracefully in a lace dress as her baby bump is visible. The dress is from Rodarte’s Kate and Laura Mulleavy, just in case you were wondering.

The cover, however, does not discuss pregnancy as it focuses on her work with Sofia Coppola. She first worked with Coppola on ‘The Virgin Suicides’ when she was all but 16.

Of her experience while working on the film, Kirsten Dunst said, "I felt really protected. [Coppola] made me feel like I was cool, like my teeth were cool, and I was pretty. At 16, I did not think anything of myself. And it’s nice to have had another woman celebrate that transition, rather than it having been sexualized through a man’s perspective."

Kirsten Dunst and partner Jesse Plemons got engaged in 2017. They met on the sets of ‘Fargo’ and share a son, Ennis, born in 2018.&nbsp;

In a chat with The Hollywood Reporter, filmmaker Adam Wingard opened up about his journey to ‘Godzilla vs Kong’. While the film released in 2021 and has been a hit since it released in theatres amid the pandemic, Adam revealed that this journey began in 2013 when his breakout film ‘You’re Next’, entered the orbit of one Peter Jackson.&nbsp;

Then Peter picked up Adam for ‘Skull Island’ and he’s never looked back. “I immediately started talking about how I would love to see Godzilla chasing Kong around with his atomic breath in a neon-soaked, futuristic, synthwave city,” Adam Wingard told THR.&nbsp;

He revealed that he knew he wanted in ‘Godzilla vs. Kong’, the latter was to embrace Kong’s underdog status, a trait that he associated with ‘80s and ‘90s action heroes like Die Hard’s John McClane and Lethal Weapon’s Martin Riggs.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-godzilla-vs-kong-review-its-worth-all-the-hype-373336">'Godzilla vs. Kong' review: It's worth all the hype</a>

“I always saw Kong in this film as an ‘80s action hero or an early ‘90s Shane Black action hero. I’m a big fan of that style of action where the action hero is this guy who’s down on his luck. Godzilla is way more powerful than [Kong]. And then on top of that, we’ve put Kong on the ocean. This is Godzilla’s element. So the stakes and the danger level are already high for this character, but then you want to amplify that. And the inspiration for that really comes from Die Hard more than anything. That’s why the movie has a Die Hard reference here and there from a visual standpoint.”

On the whole debate of why people want to see more of the monsters than the humans, Adam said, “Other than these monster movies, there’s no other film franchise where your lead character stands at 6-foot and under, and then right next to them, your other lead character is 300-foot and above. That’s a huge, high, size discrepancy. So there’s a lot to juggle there, and no matter what you do, there’s always going to be a feeling of, ‘Humans over here and monsters over here.’ So you do everything you can to integrate that. “

“In this movie, we take it a step further by having the character Jia [Kaylee Hottle]. She’s a young little girl who has this connection with Kong and can directly communicate with him, so that’s a step further in that direction. I mean, I’m not going to sit here and try to correct people on what they think. Monsters are why we’re going to see these movies. We’re going to see big monsters battle each other, and anything that gets in the way of that is naturally going to rub people wrong. They’re just going to want more of the monster, and to a certain degree, I think these movies are about ready to get to that point. I actually think that this movie represents a bridging point.”
