<h2>Creating opportunities</h2><p>The actress, who most recently starred in and produced Prime Video's 'The Bluff', in which she played retired Caribbean pirate Ercell "Bloody Mary" Bodden, spoke about the project's unexpected global reach. "I was really shocked at how many countries it was number one in because, first of all, it was a female story, second of all, about a female pirate, that most people didn't know existed," she told the audience, referencing the true stories that inspired the film.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>She went on to describe how creating her own opportunities, rather than waiting for them, has shaped her approach as both an actor and a producer. "I've heard this from so many female colleagues: When you want to move along and there's a glass ceiling that's been set for most women in entertainment, you just have to do it yourself," she said. Chopra Jonas is next set to star in the survival film 'Reset' alongside Orlando Bloom.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Also Read: </strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/priyanka-chopra-teases-new-collaboration-with-angeline-jolie-after-varanasi-1781937436947"><strong>Priyanka Chopra teases new collaboration with Angeline Jolie after Varanasi</strong></a></p><h2>Priyanka on motivations</h2><p>Speaking about her motivations for moving into production, the global star recalled feeling like an outsider when she first entered the American film industry and wanting to build a platform for others in similar positions. "When I came into the film industry, I didn't know anyone ... when new people come into film and TV, that is my sweet spot. I want to, as a production house, to be the shoulders for entertainers and creators to jump off, because I created a platform and I know how hard it is," she said.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Priyanka added that the lack of leading roles available to her as an Indian actor in Hollywood pushed her toward producing her own work. "When I came to America, I wanted more work, which had me as a lead, which had me doing parts that I don't think a lot of studios imagined an Indian actor doing. So I started producing my own movies," according to People.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Also Read: </strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/priyanka-chopra-jonas-reflects-on-hollywood-vs-bollywood-journey-admits-i-haven-t-really-done-that-as-much-1782362273215"><strong>Priyanka Chopra Jonas reflects on Hollywood vs Bollywood journey, admits she 'hasn't done much' work in English-language films</strong></a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>On the importance of a global outlook in entertainment, she pointed to the rise of streaming as a major factor in helping international projects reach new audiences.</p><p>The ace star cited her upcoming project 'Varanasi', which is being filmed in Telugu but will be dubbed into nearly 200 languages, as an example of this shift. "My mom loves Korean dramas. She would never have had access to those if it wasn't for both of those factors," she said, also referencing the global success of 'Squid Game' and 'Parasite' as examples of non-English content breaking through internationally.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>She concluded by emphasising the importance of authentic partnerships and continued self-improvement throughout her career. "To be the best partner, I had to have an authentic partnership, I had to come from something that was real," she said. "I like to associate with the best. I built my career on my own, I've worked for 26 years to keep evolving, to keep that attention. You seek aligning with the best, and it's okay to give yourself permission to seek better every time," according to People.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Disclaimer</strong>: <i>This story has been published from a news agency feed with minimal edits to adhere to WION's style guide.

<p>The DC Universe's newest film, <i>Supergirl</i>, was released in cinemas in India today.

Olivia Wilde's third directorial venture, The Invite, takes a deep dive into discussions about relationships and how they survive. The film features Wilde along with Seth Rogen, Penelope Cruz and Edward Norton. 

As she directed and starred in the sexy romantic comedy "The Invite," Olivia Wilde took a deep dive into discussions about relationships and how they survive -- conversations her co-stars joined with open arms. "There was an amazing kind of collective catharsis," Wilde told AFP at the Hollywood premiere of her new film, in which she shares the screen with Seth Rogen, Edward Norton and Penelope Cruz. "I think we all walked away feeling like we had gained a little bit of knowledge, a little perspective from each other, because everyone had been so vulnerable." "The Invite," which had its world premiere at the Sundance festival earlier this year and will be released in select US cities on Friday, tells the story of two couples at different moments in their relationships. When the frustrated and tired Joe and Angela (Rogen and Wilde) host the charismatic Hawk and Pina (Norton and Cruz) for a dinner party, the night takes some unexpected turns. The film is both funny and dark, and allows viewers to ponder their own relationship issues. "It was a really great and honest examination of how relationships evolve as the people in them evolve," Rogen told AFP. The 44-year-old actor -- coming off a banner year of awards for his Hollywood satire "The Studio" -- said relationships are always box office gold because "it's high stakes, very personal, very relatable." - 'Really relatable' - The cast said the film works because of its screenplay, written by Rashida Jones and Will McCormack (who also wrote 2012's "Celeste & Jesse Forever"). The movie was inspired by the work of Spanish director Cesc Gay, who wrote the play "The Neighbors from Upstairs," which was made into the Spanish-language film "Sentimental" in 2020. Jones, also known for acting in "Parks and Recreation," said the film clicks "even though we're talking about very dysfunctional people and dysfunctional relationships" -- or maybe even because of that fact. "We tried to layer things into those relationships that didn't feel only dramatic, but also really relatable to anybody who's been in a long-term relationship, and I think people see themselves in it," she said.

<p>Talking about how the idea behind the series came to light, ahead of its India debut on Lionsgate Play, Richard Gadd said, “With my past projects I've touched on masculinity in the context of my own struggles with being a man. All of my stories explore human feelings, but this time, I wanted to come up with an idea that explores what it means to be a man in this ever-changing world through these two characters. To me, it feels like the debate about men has reached quite a high pitch and, at the same time, become somewhat simplified. “Toxic masculinity” is a phrase we hear a lot, and while it can risk feeling overused, it’s also being discussed so widely for a reason. What’s interesting is that, despite that visibility, there are still aspects of it that haven’t yet been fully explored in the mainstream. I think that much of how society has been structured can lead to men having an inability to express themselves and express love and vulnerability, so it felt interesting to posit that conversation through Niall and Ruben.”</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>With Stuart Campbell and Mitchell Robertson bringing quiet force to their younger selves, the series captures the tenderness, volatility, and emotional inheritance of two men who grew up in each other’s shadow. Richard Gadd’s physical and ripped transformation as Ruben brings another layer to the performance, giving a commanding presence that makes his silence as unsettling as his rage. Together, the cast shapes Half Man into a piercing portrait of masculinity, violence, and the fragile bonds that can define a life - until they break.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Half Man premieres July 3, exclusively on Lionsgate Play</p>
