It’s been a while since we checked in with the team behind The Worst Movie EVER ! — which is to say with Glenn Berggoetz, the actor/filmmaker/no-budget impresario whose gonzo epic set a record for box-office futility with an $11 opening . Things have been mostly looking up since then: There was a relatively well-received screening down in Virginia, and, according to Berggoetz, exhibition interest everywhere from a domestic TV syndicate to Brazil, Japan and beyond. But! There have been bumps along the road as well — ugly, anonymous, death-threatening bumps.
‘Johnny Depp has always been a massive inspiration for me,’ ‘Breaking Dawn’ actor tells MTV News. By Jocelyn Vena, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Jamie Campbell Bower Photo: MTV News Jamie Campbell Bower has already been swept up in the frenzy of two of Hollywood’s biggest franchises ever, “Twilight” and “Harry Potter.” At 22, he’s settled for nothing less than A-list flicks, including “Sweeney Todd,” “RocknRolla” and playing King Arthur in the miniseries “Camelot.” Thanks to his gypsy style and diverse r
“We#39;ve never hidden it. We#39;ve been open about addictions, in the case of Melanie,” the actor tells AARP The Magazine in its November issue. In 15 years of marriage, Antonio Banderas and Melanie Griffith “have had as many problems as anybody,” he admits. Among them was Griffith#39;s stint in rehab, her third, two years ago. This openness extends to their children, says Banderas. The couple have one daughter together, Stella, who turns 15 this week. Griffith also has two children from prev
“I have a lot of love for Cameron,” the slugger, 36, told us about the actress, 39. “We#39;ll always be friends.” It may be game over for Cameron Diaz and Yankee star Alex Rodriguez, but the couple, who recently broke up after dating for a year and a half, remain on good terms. According to a source, the decision to call it quits was mutual for Diaz and Rodriguez, who played games and posed with fans while promoting Vita Coco in Manhattan on Tuesday. “They have considerable respect for each o
In this ‘Deathly Hallows, Part 2’ Blu-ray exclusive, Radcliffe says literary beginnings set ‘Potter’ apart from other film franchises. By Eric Ditzian Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson in “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2” Photo: Warner Bros. He’s the Boy Who Lived. And lived. And lived. The “Harry Potter” film franchise has come to a close — taking with it $1.3 billion and counting at the international box office for the final part of “Deathly Hallows” — but the bespectacled wizard and his friends and foes are neither gone nor forgotten. There are still Blu-rays to nab, fresh footage to consume and things to learn about the series. In an exclusive clip from the upcoming Blu-ray release of “Deathly Hallows, Part 2,” which Warner Bros. just announced will be hitting shelves November 11, Daniel Radcliffe pointed out how J.K. Rowling’s book series has given rise to an entire new generation of young people with a love of literature — something other big franchises cannot claim. “I always think that that’s one of the wonderful things about ‘Potter’ and the ‘Potter’ fanbase,” Radcliffe says. “If you think about the other big costume-wearing [franchises] that go with it, things like ‘Star Wars’ and ‘Star Trek,’ with ‘Potter,’ because it started off as a literary thing, has created a generation of the same kind of mentality … with an appetite for reading and literature, which is kind of amazing.” Radcliffe’s comments are included in a special Blu-ray featurette presenting a never-before-seen conversation between the actor and Rowling herself. That’s one extra on the new release, in addition to behind-the-scenes footage and a preview of Pottermore, Rowling’s online “Harry Potter” experience . Start your pre-ordering now! Because 10 years into the franchise’s run, fans still can’t get enough of all things “Potter.” Neither can Radcliffe, not even when the franchise intrudes into his post-“Potter” career , as it did at the end of a performance of his Broadway musical, “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.” “Somebody shouted, ‘You’re a wizard, Harry!’ [during the end of a ‘How to Succeed’ performance], and I just went, in a way, ‘I’m kind of annoyed at you right now, but on the other hand, you’ve done quite well to restrain yourself for two and a half hours and not shout that in the middle of the show,’ so I kind of have to be grateful,” Radcliffe told us this past spring.

Pippa Middleton showed up to support one of her favorite UK fashion designers, Temperley London, at fashion week in the British capital Monday evening. Wearing the “classic fan dress” from the label’s autumn/winter collection, dressed down with black suede ankle boots, the rising fashion star was all smiles. Here are a few Pippa Middleton pictures from the event: During the show, Pippa pointed out her favorite pieces from the silver-screen inspired collection, shown in the British Museum’s dramatic grand atrium. She seemed to love the silky jumpsuits, kimono capes and floor-sweeping dresses adorned in beads and tassels, accessorized with glam head wraps. “It was really special, really amazing,” Middleton said, congratulating designer Alice Temperley’s husband and label CEO Lars von Benningsen on her way out. The Temperley label has become a go-to favorite for both Pippa and her sister Kate Middleton , a.k.a. Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, recently.
Dancing With the Stars saw plenty of strong performances last night. Chynna Phillips and J.R. Martinez in particular stood out atop the Season 13 crowd. Ron Artest (a.k.a. Metta World Peace)? Rob Kardashian? Not so much. “It’s a new season, we’ve got a new set, but it’s the same old shimmying-about stuff,” head judge Len Goodman told the newly-named Los Angeles Laker. “Your footwork was atrocious. It was all sizzle, no sausage.” BLAM. As for Kardashian, he wasn’t quite as terrible, but Chaz Bono scored better than he did, as did sister Kim a few seasons back. Not a good sign. See the performances that left both men at the bottom of the scoreboard and likely a little nervous about their status tonight by following the jump: Ron Artest & Peta Murgatroyd – Cha-Cha (DWTS Week 1) Rob Kardashian & Cheryl Burke – Waltz (DWTS Week 1) Who do you think will win Dancing With the Stars?
Taylor Lautner has never been more excited than he is right now. These are the actor’s exact words, as expressed to our friends at Movie Fanatic, when asked about the September 23 opening of Abduction , Lautner’s first feature role since Twilight . “This movie was very different than anything I’d done before,” Taylor said. “It was challenging. I knew it would challenge me and that’s why I was attracted to do it. But it was a lot of fun. Breaking Dawn right after that was even more challenging. My character goes through so much in the first installment of the last two movies. So I’m definitely growing and I couldn’t have done it alone.” What about working with rumored girlfriend Lily Collins? Lautner says he “can’t wait for people to see” the young actress in the film.
