<p>Amazon.com Inc will buy MGM, the fabled US movie studio home to the James Bond franchise, for $8.45 billion, giving it a huge library of films and TV shows and ramping up competition with streaming rivals led by Netflix and Disney+.<br />
<br />
The deal aims to bolster Amazon`s television-focused studio with new and historic filmmaking from MGM, which has snapped up lucrative series including "Rocky" and "Tomb Raider" since its founding in 1924.<br />
<br />
Streaming video helps the world's largest online retailer draw people to subscribe to Prime, a club with fast shipping, and to shop more once they`re members. Privately-held MGM, or Metro Goldwyn Mayer, also owns the Epix cable channel and makes popular TV shows including 'Fargo',&nbsp;'Vikings'&nbsp;and 'Shark Tank'.</p>

<br />
Jeff Bezos, Amazon`s founder, laid out the rationale for the deal at the company's annual shareholder meeting on Wednesday.</p>

<p><br />
"MGM has a vast, deep catalog of much beloved intellectual property," he said. "With the talented people at MGM and the talented people at Amazon Studios, we can reimagine and develop that IP for the 21st century."<br />
<br />
Bezos said it was premature&nbsp;to name Amazon Studios as the fourth pillar of the company after its seller marketplace, cloud division and Prime, but it was working toward that milestone. More than 175 million Prime members watched content on Amazon in the past year, and streaming hours were up 70%, he said.</p>

Amazon`s Prime Video faces a long list of rivals including Netflix Inc, Walt Disney Co`s Disney+, HBO Max and Apple Inc`s Apple TV+.<br />
<br />
The companies have increased spending and expanded in international markets, capturing the pandemic-led shift to binge-watching shows online.<br />
To stay competitive, Amazon has also courted fans of live sports and picked up licenses to stream games, boasting a long-term deal with the National Football League that was estimated to cost about $1 billion per year.<br />
<br />
The proliferating streaming services are scrambling for content libraries and brands they can expand. Analysts have said this is a big motivation for another round of consolidation of media properties after a brief hiatus during the pandemic.<br />
<br />
"With new entrants to streaming from all the major studios and TV networks, Amazon has to increase its commitment to video or risk losing engagement," said Jim Nail of research firm Forrester.<br />
<br />
Underscoring the trend toward consolidation, AT&amp;T Inc announced a $43-billion deal last week to spin out its WarnerMedia business and combine it with Discovery Inc, one of the most ambitious yet in the streaming era. Amazon's&nbsp;Hollywood studio purchase is a first for a big U.S. tech company and could spark further interest in Silicon Valley, a source familiar with the matter said.<br />
<br />
The acquisition is Amazon’s second-biggest after Whole Foods Market, which it bought for $13.7 billion in 2017. At almost $9 billion, the lofty price is about 37 times MGM’s 2021 estimated EBITDA - or almost triple the enterprise value-to-EBITDA multiple that Discovery’s deal implied for AT&amp;T’s content assets - according to Reuters Breakingviews.<br />
<br />
At the same time, Amazon posted its fourth consecutive record quarterly profit in April. MGM started a formal sale process in December when it was estimated to be worth about $5.5 billion. Morgan Stanley and LionTree advised MGM on the deal.<br />
<br />
The deal will provide fuel for the Seattle company`s critics in Washington who complain it is already too big and powerful, but experts said the deal poses few classic antitrust concerns. Amazon shares rose 0.3%.<br />
<br />
Amazon has picked up Academy Awards over the years and slowly moved from art-house fare toward content with wider appeal. The MGM acquisition accelerates that move, giving it rights to James Bond, one of the most lucrative franchises in film history that’s earned nearly $7 billion at the box office globally, according to MGM.<br />
<br />
Other classic films in MGM's library include 'RoboCop', 'Moonstruck' and 'The Silence of the Lambs'.&nbsp;The potential to mine this intellectual property, by making new content based on popular characters, will help Amazon draw viewers to Prime, two former Amazon executives told Reuters.<br />
MGM also licenses content for video games, which could benefit Amazon`s development efforts in that area. Still, Amazon efforts to profit off the library won’t be easy, or cheap.<br />
<br />
In many cases, MGM’s content is tied up in multi-year deals with television networks, the former Amazon executives said. Amazon cannot simply air MGM’s reality show “The Voice,” for instance, which contractually is in the hands of NBC.<br />
<br />
Bringing a new instalment of the James Bond saga online instead of in theatres would be a particularly difficult task, the sources said. The terms under which MGM acquired the franchise leave control in the hands of the Broccoli family, the Bond films’ producers.<br />
<br />
Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson of Eon Productions said in a statement, "We are committed to continuing to make James Bond films for the worldwide theatrical audience." News of the acquisition followed quickly on the upcoming return of Jeff Blackburn, Amazon’s former senior vice president overseeing content and M&amp;A, who had left early this year.<br />

<p>Rege Jean Page, the star who has been in the headline since his breakthrough Netflix show 'Bridgerton' released broke many hearts when it was announced that he will not be&nbsp;reprising his role of Duke of Hastings, Simon Basset&nbsp;in the upcoming season of the show.&nbsp;&nbsp;After becoming the heartthrob and internet sensation there has been a rumour about him taking the role of James Bond post the ecit of&nbsp;Daniel Craig and becoming a Marvel superhero by starring in the highly anticipated 'Black Panther' sequel film<br />
<br />
In a recent interaction with Variety, Page cleared all the rumous in the air and talked about his famous yet shocking 'Bridgerton' exit.&nbsp;</p>

<p>When asked if he was nervous about leaving the role of the Duke of Hastings behind, he said,&nbsp;“Not at all, because that’s what was meant. Simon was this bomb of a one-season antagonist, to be reformed and to find his true self through Daphne. I think one of the bravest things about the romance genre is allowing people a happy ending.”<br />
<br />
He also compared his exit to leaving high school, ''You’re afraid of the unknown, thinking, ‘Oh, my god, I’m never going to make friends as good as the ones I have,’ and then you do''.<br />
<br />
Addressing&nbsp;rumours of starring in James Bond after Danial Craige exit or in the MCU 'Black Panther 2', he said,<br />
“I spend a lot of time at the moment talking about what other people are saying about me, as opposed to anything I’m actually doing…I can’t talk about the B-word [Bond], because I’ve got nothing to say on the B-word. I can’t talk about which jobs I’m not doing, because I’m not doing them, [but] I’m very happy with the work I am doing. I’ve been a huge fan of the types of movies that the MCU has been putting out, that have made it possible to do the kind of work I’m doing now, both directly and indirectly — with the Russos and with the genre that I’m working in with John and Jonathan [Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley, who wrote Sony and Marvel’s Spider-Man: Homecoming].”<br />
<br />
Page has some good projects in his bags including starring in the Netflix action-thriller 'The Gray Man', due to hit theatres in 2022, as well as the 'Dungeons &amp; Dragons' movie.<br />
<br />
"It’s a brilliant job. I’m literally paying my mortgage by fighting imaginary dragons,” he excitedly said.</p>

"Everyone on set, except Angelina, had to be in a bee suit for protection. I applied the pheromone by hand in the places on her where I wanted bees to congregate. The bees are attracted to the pheromone, but it also encourages them not to swarm. Angelina stood perfectly still, covered in bees for 18 minutes without a sting. Being around bees is always an experience that leaves me in awe. I feel like our offering for World Bee Day has its own roots in photographic history," Dan Winters added.&nbsp;<br />

"It was so funny to be in hair and makeup and wiping yourself with pheromone," she told National Geographic. "We couldn't shower for three days before. Because they told me, 'If you have all these different scents, shampoos and perfumes and things, the bee doesn't know what you are.' [They] don't want [bees] to confuse you for a flower, I suppose." she said.</p>

<p>Pete Davidson closed this season's 'SNL' by taking a comic&nbsp;dig at Chrissy Teigen.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
During this week's episode, the 27-year-old cast member appeared during the 'Weekend Update' segment and took a jab at the 35-year-old cookbook author.<br />
<br />
During the sketch, Pete started talking about the pandemic, and joked, ''If there's one good thing about the pandemic besides getting Chrissy Teigen out of our lives," before being cut off by laughter. In the end he shrugged and said&nbsp;"I'm relieved," before making a joke on masks.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The comment comes after Chrissy faced <a href="http://13.235.153.162/entertainment/chrissy-teigen-apologises-to-courtney-stodden-for-social-media-bullying-384898">major criticism</a> after Courtney Stodden alleged in a Daily Beast interview that the cookbook author used to send her DM on Twitter back in 2011 telling her&nbsp;to “kill” herself.<br />
<br />
After the backlash, the mother of two publicly issued an apology to model Courtney Stodden.<br />
<br />
Taking it to Twitter, Chrissy wrote, "Not a lot of people are lucky enough to be held accountable for all their past bullshit in front of the entire world. I`m mortified and sad at who I used to be. I was an insecure, attention-seeking troll. I am ashamed and embarrassed at my behaviour but that is nothing compared to how I made Courtney feel."<br />
<br />
"I have tried to connect with Courtney privately but since I publicly fuelled all this, I want to also publicly apologize. I`m so sorry, Courtney. I hope you can heal now knowing how deeply sorry I am," she added.</p>

<p>American singer Lil Nas X in a recent 'Saturday Night Live'&nbsp;performance suffered a wardrobe malfunction as he split his pants while performing the hit song 'Montero (Call Me by Your Name)'.<br />
<br />
According to Variety, the malfunction occurred during a steamy performance by the `Panini` singer, which found him working a hell-themed set reminiscent of the boundary-breaking video.</p>

During the performance, Nas was seen donning a flame-emblazoned, physique-bearing leather outfit. He was accompanied by six shirtless male dancers, one of whom licked his neck mid-song and another turned himself upside down, spread-eagled in front of the singer.</p>

Matt Truex, Marketing Manager at the Prop Store, said the auction was the biggest they had ever held and he expects keen interest from collectors.<br />
"One of the hottest items in our auction is this original Indiana Jones, Harrison Ford fedora hat from 'Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom',&nbsp;the second film. This is valued in auction for $250,000 to $350,000," Truex told Reuters.</p>

Bidders will be able to view the full catalogue of items being auctioned via Zoom and make their purchases online and by phone. Among the hundreds of items, collectors will find memorabilia from films like 'Terminator 2: Judgment Day', 'Batman', 'Elf', 'Top Gun', and 'The Muppets'.<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />
"We`ve even got pieces for comic art collectors," Truex added. Harry Potter`s wand and eyeglasses, worn by Daniel Radcliffe during production on "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," promise to be one of the most sought-after items.<br />
<br />
"This is the first time that the Warner Brothers` archive has released Harry Potter`s wand and glasses to auction.

"This is the first time that the Warner Brothers` archive has released Harry Potter`s wand and glasses to auction. The exciting part for this as well is that 100% of the hammer price proceeds for these two pieces are going to go to charity and both of them are valued at $30,000 to $50,000 each," Truex said.

"We`ve got something for every price range from the hundreds of thousands to the low hundreds," he said. "But the hope is that with 1,300 lots, anybody that`s a fan of these films can come and walk away with something that they love." The Prop Store said the live auction over three days, from June 29 to July 1, is targeting in excess of $6.1 million.

<p>From the sound of horses` hooves on the day of Princess Diana's funeral to chases by paparazzi when he was a child in the back of a car, Prince Harry is still haunted by the trauma of losing his mother.<br />
<br />
Speaking in detail of how he failed to deal with her loss for more than a decade, Harry says in a new TV documentary series that the fear of also losing his wife Meghan was one of the main reasons the couple quit their royal duties and moved to California last year.<br />
<br />
"My mother was chased to her death when she was in a relationship with someone who wasn`t white, and now look what`s happened. You`re talking about history repeating itself? They`re not going to stop until she dies," Harry says in the mental health documentary series "The Me You Can`t See."<br />
"It`s incredibly triggering to potentially lose another woman in my life," he added, referring to Meghan. The "Me You Can`t See" series, which Harry produced with U.S. talk show host Oprah Winfrey, is released on Apple TV+ on Friday.</p>

<br />
Princess Diana died in 1997 at age 36 in a crash in Paris after the car in which she was travelling with her Egyptian-born boyfriend Dodi Fayed was chased by paparazzi. Harry was 12 at the time.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Harry, whose American wife Meghan is bi-racial, spoke of racist reporting in the mainstream British press about his wife, as well as abuse on social media. Meghan has said her experience in Britain drove her to thoughts of suicide when she was pregnant with their first son Archie.<br />
<br />
In the documentary, Harry spoke of walking behind Diana`s coffin through the streets of London with his brother William, father Prince Charles and uncle Charles Spencer. "The thing I remember most was the sound of the horses` hooves going along the Mall," he said. "It was like I was outside of my body, just walking along, doing what was expected of me, showing one tenth of the emotion that everyone was showing."</p>

Years earlier, he recalled sitting in the back of his mother`s car while she, in tears, was pursued by photographers. "One of the feelings that comes up for me always is the helplessness. Being a guy and being too young to help a woman, in this case your mother, and that happened every single day," he said.<br />
<br />
Harry said he buried his feelings, but drank heavily and suffered panic attacks and anxiety in his 20s, and still freaks out when he sees cameras.&nbsp;"I was so angry with what happened to her (Diana) and the fact there was no justice at all... the same people that chased her through that tunnel photographed her dying on the back seat of that car," he said.<br />
<br />
"The clicking of cameras, and the flash of cameras makes my blood boil. It makes me angry. It takes me back to what happened to my mum, what I experienced as a kid." Even now, at age 36, he said that returning to London makes him feel tense and hunted.<br />
<br />
Harry said he started serious therapy almost five years ago when he met Meghan. "I quickly established that if this relationship was going to work, I had to deal with my past," he said. The couple married in May 2018.</p>

<p>Lady Gaga is speaking about her dark days in 'The Me You Can’t See'.<br />
<br />
Appearing in Prince Harry and Oprah Winfrey's AppleTV+ documentary series, the singer recalled her sexual assault experience and revealed that she got pregnant after being raped by a music producer.<br />
<br />
The award-winning singer tearfully opened up about the horrifying incident and said, “I was 19 years old, and I was working in the business, and a producer said to me, ‘take your clothes off'."<br />
<br />
“And I said no. And I left, and they told me they were going to burn all of my music. And they didn’t stop. They didn’t stop asking me, and I just froze and I—I don’t even remember," she added further.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
On why she never named the producer publicly, she explained&nbsp;she never wants to face that producer again. &nbsp;</p>

<p>She also revealed that the dark memories were triggered again years later during a hospital visit and the pain eventually led to a “psychotic break” that she still had.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
“First I felt full-on pain, then I went numb.&nbsp;And then I was sick for weeks and weeks and weeks and weeks after, and I realised that it was the same pain that I felt when the person who raped me dropped me off pregnant on a corner. At my parents’ house because I was vomiting and sick. Because I’d been being abused. I was locked away in a studio for months," she said recalling the incident.<br />
<br />
“I had a total psychotic break, and for a couple years, I was not the same girl,” she said. “The way that I feel when I feel pain was how I felt after I was raped. I’ve had so many MRIs and scans where they don’t find nothing. But your body remembers.”<br />
<br />
Gaga concluded her talk on a positive note, by saying she has "learned all the ways to pull myself out of it. It all started to slowly change."</p>

<p>The series is&nbsp;produced by Prince Harry and Oprah and debuts on Apple+ on May 21.</p>

<p>Hollywood movie studios on Wednesday promised a summer of high-octane car chases, epic explosions and edge-of-your-seat scare to lure crowds back to cinemas after they were devastated by extended closures during the coronavirus pandemic.<br />

"Just being back in the theater again feels so powerfully good," 'Star Wars'&nbsp;director JJ&nbsp;Abrams said, standing in front of a giant screen at an AMC Entertainment theatre in Los Angeles. "Being in a big, dark room with strangers - screaming and laughing and experiencing the power of that - is a human, natural need," he added. "I think it`s going to come back in a pretty roaring way."<br />
<br />
Skeptics worry, however, that viewers who devoured streaming content during the COVID crisis might be reluctant to get off the sofa and head to a box office.

Salman Khan to Billy Porter: Celebrities you didn't know have battled serious illnesses

<p>Last year, Christopher Nolan recieved backlash after reports came out claiming that the 'Inception' and 'Tenet' filmmaker bans chairs from his sets, a story later was dismissed by the director's representative.</p>

<p>The same is being said for Zack Snyder now. Admitting the same, Zack said that he did actually ban chairs from his upcoming project&nbsp;'Army Of The Dead' set.<br />
<br />
The director recently appeared on The Playlist's 'Fourth Wall' podcast and confirmed&nbsp;that he did not allow any chairs while filming. "There's no sitting down, like, I banned chairs from the set," Snyder said,&nbsp;"But the nice thing is, it's really intimate. I can just talk to the actors right there, I'm not back in a monitor across the room. It was definitely the most purely engaged I've been making a movie."&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Snyder not only directed and co-wrote the Netflix zombie epic but also served as the film’s cinematographer.&nbsp; The movie stars a large ensemble that includes Ella Purnell, Omari Hardwick, Theo Rossi, Raúl Castillo, Matthias Schweighöfer, and Tig Notaro. It also features Indian actress Huma Qureshi.&nbsp;<br />

The movie is currently playing in limited theatres and will debut on Netflix on&nbsp;May 21.</p>

<p>Angelina Jolie's survival action thriller 'Those Who Wish Me Dead'&nbsp;didn't do much to revive the North American box office. The Warner Bros. film, which debuted simultaneously on the streaming service HBO Max, took in a paltry $2.8 million in its opening weekend.<br />
<br />
The movie's hybrid release on HBO Max likely isn't the reason 'Those Who Wish Me Dead'&nbsp;sold hardly any tickets; 'Godzilla vs. Kong'&nbsp;and 'Mortal Kombat'&nbsp;were both recent Warner Bros. films that we're able to generate decent box office revenues despite being released concurrently on a streaming service.<br />
<br />
As movie theatres attempt to rebound from the COVID-19 pandemic, family films and CGI spectacles have been popular options to see on the big screen. Gritty dramas geared toward adult audiences haven't been performing as well, and mediocre reviews for 'Those Who Wish Me Dead'&nbsp;didn't help drum up interest.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-marvel-superhero-series-wandavision-casts-spell-on-mtv-awards-385534" hreflang="en">Marvel superhero series 'WandaVision' casts spell on MTV awards</a><br />
<br />
"The film was barely promoted even by pandemic standards and effectively went under the radar as both as a theatrical and streaming release," says Shawn Robbins, the chief analyst at Box Office Pro. "We've seen a number of genre thrillers aimed at audiences of a certain age open during the past year, so there could also be an element of saturation in play."<br />
<br />
The film played in 3,188 cinemas, a sizable footprint considering only 65% of movie theatres are currently open, according to Comscore. Taylor Sheridan directed 'Those Who Wish Me Dead',&nbsp;based on the novel by Michael Koryta. The story centres on a teenager who witnesses the murder of his father and goes on the run with a smokejumper (Jolie) to escape two gunmen trying to silence him. Variety's chief film critic Peter Debruge was a fan of the film, writing in his review: "The idea may be outrageous, but Sheridan`s commitment makes the whole thing work." Moviegoers gave the film a 'B' CinemaScore.</p>

<br />
'Those Who Wish Me Dead',&nbsp;which finished the weekend in third place, wasn`t the only new movie to open. 'Spiral',&nbsp;creepy addition to the terrifying 'Saw'&nbsp;franchise, brought in $8.7 million between Friday and Sunday. That`s a mediocre start given its $20 million production budget, but it`s enough to easily nab the No. 1 spot on box office charts in the coronavirus era.<br />
<br />
Paul Dergarabedian, a senior media analyst with Comscore, says the debut of 'Spiral'&nbsp;is 'solid' given the slow-to-recover box office. "We are still operating in a very limited marketplace," says Dergarabedian. He`s optimistic that things will pick up with releases of Paramount's 'A Quiet Place Part II' and Disney's 'Cruella'&nbsp;over Memorial Day weekend.<br />
<br />
'Saw' veteran Darren Lynn Bousman directed 'Spiral',&nbsp;which stars Chris Rock, Max Minghella and Samuel L. Jackson and follows police efforts to stop a Jigsaw copycat killer. It got mixed reviews, with Variety`s Owen Gleiberman saying for better or worse, the latest entry stays true to its graphic, stomach-churning roots. "No," Gleiberman wrote, "the 'Saw'&nbsp;series hasn`t really changed. So depending on whether you`re a fan or not, eat up...or throw up."<br />
<br />
Fans of dismemberment movies ate well this weekend. Zack Snyder's zombie movie 'Army of the Dead'&nbsp;also arrived on the big screen, one week before it becomes available on Netflix. Since the streaming service has a contentious relationship with cinema owners, the film only played in 430 locations, far fewer than its fellow new releases. Netflix, unlike traditional movie studios, doesn`t reveal box office data. However, rivals estimate that 'Army of the Dead'&nbsp;generated $800,000 over the weekend, enough to crack the top 10.</p>

Angelina Jolie's survival action thriller 'Those Who Wish Me Dead' didn't do much to revive the North American box office. The Warner Bros. film, which debuted simultaneously on the streaming service HBO Max, took in a paltry $2.8 million in its opening weekend. The movie's hybrid release on HBO Max likely isn't the reason 'Those Who Wish Me Dead' sold hardly any tickets; 'Godzilla vs. Kong' and 'Mortal Kombat' were both recent Warner Bros. films that we're able to generate decent box office revenues despite being released concurrently on a streaming service. As movie theatres attempt to rebound from the COVID-19 pandemic, family films and CGI spectacles have been popular options to see on the big screen. Gritty dramas geared toward adult audiences haven't been performing as well, and mediocre reviews for 'Those Who Wish Me Dead' didn't help drum up interest. Marvel superhero series 'WandaVision' casts spell on MTV awards "The film was barely promoted even by pandemic standards and effectively went under the radar as both as a theatrical and streaming release," says Shawn Robbins, the chief analyst at Box Office Pro. "We've seen a number of genre thrillers aimed at audiences of a certain age open during the past year, so there could also be an element of saturation in play." The film played in 3,188 cinemas, a sizable footprint considering only 65% of movie theatres are currently open, according to Comscore. Taylor Sheridan directed 'Those Who Wish Me Dead', based on the novel by Michael Koryta. The story centres on a teenager who witnesses the murder of his father and goes on the run with a smokejumper (Jolie) to escape two gunmen trying to silence him. Variety's chief film critic Peter Debruge was a fan of the film, writing in his review: "The idea may be outrageous, but Sheridan`s commitment makes the whole thing work." Moviegoers gave the film a 'B' CinemaScore. Scarlett Johansson's 'Black Widow' new video clip out: Watch 'Those Who Wish Me Dead', which finished the weekend in third place, wasn`t the only new movie to open. 'Spiral', creepy addition to the terrifying 'Saw' franchise, brought in $8.7 million between Friday and Sunday. That`s a mediocre start given its $20 million production budget, but it`s enough to easily nab the No. 1 spot on box office charts in the coronavirus era. Paul Dergarabedian, a senior media analyst with Comscore, says the debut of 'Spiral' is 'solid' given the slow-to-recover box office. "We are still operating in a very limited marketplace," says Dergarabedian. He`s optimistic that things will pick up with releases of Paramount's 'A Quiet Place Part II' and Disney's 'Cruella' over Memorial Day weekend. 'Saw' veteran Darren Lynn Bousman directed 'Spiral', which stars Chris Rock, Max Minghella and Samuel L. Jackson and follows police efforts to stop a Jigsaw copycat killer. It got mixed reviews, with Variety`s Owen Gleiberman saying for better or worse, the latest entry stays true to its graphic, stomach-churning roots. "No," Gleiberman wrote, "the 'Saw' series hasn`t really changed. So depending on whether you`re a fan or not, eat up...or throw up." Fans of dismemberment movies ate well this weekend. Zack Snyder's zombie movie 'Army of the Dead' also arrived on the big screen, one week before it becomes available on Netflix. Since the streaming service has a contentious relationship with cinema owners, the film only played in 430 locations, far fewer than its fellow new releases. Netflix, unlike traditional movie studios, doesn`t reveal box office data. However, rivals estimate that 'Army of the Dead' generated $800,000 over the weekend, enough to crack the top 10.
