Why Stan Lee Says That Robert Downey Jr. Is The Only (Iron) Man For The Job
There are some parts that people are just born to play, from Hugh Jackman as #Wolverine, #RobertDowneyJr., and... Bob Hoskins as Super Mario. However, with #superhero franchises being overhauled and rebooted left right and center, the casting/recasting of superheroes is a dangerous game. Many people will have seen three Spider-Men, two Prof. Xs, and five Bruce Waynes in their lifetime. You know who the best is; nobody beats RDJ as #IronMan. He is literally the coolest, watch him deliver a bionic Iron Man arm to a 7-year-old boy with a partially developed limb:

From Pastor To Prime Minister: A John Lithgow Retrospective
That cheeky grin and his ever-receding hairline, #JohnLithgow has kept us entertained since the '70s with the chameleon-like ability to play anyone and everyone. From his award-winning role as transsexual ex-football Roberta in The World According to Garp, to the Alzheimer's-afflicted Charles Rodman in Rise of the Planet of the Apes, John Arthur Lithgow rightly deserves his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

50 Shades Of Greyjoy: How 'Game Of Thrones' Turned Two Greyjoy Brothers Into One
After six seasons of taking to the skies with dragons, Game of Thrones finally set sail on the high seas for Season 7. The episode "Stormborn" saw Pilou Asbæk's Euron Greyjoy make a calculated move from the Salt Throne toward the Iron Throne. It seems that blood is definitely thicker than water, and there was plenty of blood to be spilled on the water during the climax of the latest episode. Just as Yara Greyjoy and Ellaria Sand locked lips, a blossoming romance was cut short by the arrival of Uncle "Give Us a Kiss" Euron.

Place Your Rhetts: What's The Deal With 'American Horror Story's' Uber Driver Rhett Snow?
Oh no, #AmericanHorrorStory, what have you done to our horror hunks? Finn Wittrock became a slack-jawed yokel, Evan Peters was butchered twice, and Matt Bomer was totally MIA. Luckily the sixth season of #RyanMurhpy's horror anthology got something right by giving us something else pretty to look at with newcomer Billy Snow.

Is Danai Gurira About To Mich-own Another Character's Story On The Walking Dead?
While the seventh season of #TheWalkingDead may be more of a crawler than a walker, we have seen some interesting character developments in the first run of episodes. With Rick and Daryl all but broken at the hands of Jeffrey Dean Morgan's #Negan, it is time for the women of the group to step up. With Maggie, Rosita, and Michonne having bigger cojones than Negan himself, did Episode 4 show us someone tooling up for the impending bloodbath?

Is Dwayne Johnson Ready To 'Rock' The White House As President In 2020?
No, this isn't a follow-up to White House Down where #TheRock saves Jamie Foxx's President from another attack from international terrorists — however, please take my money for that. This is the wild rumor that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson could be throwing his hat into the ring for the 2020 Presidential #Election. Joining other pro-wrestlers Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jesse "The Body" Ventura on the path to politics, could this be the next logical step for the Wrestlemania legend?

The Many Faced Actor: Did You Notice That 'Game Of Thrones' Has Recast Another Of Its Stars?
With a cast large enough to populate the Seven Kingdoms, you can excuse HBO's Game of Thrones for sometimes losing a few of its famous faces in the pack of unknown actors. While the story may largely focus on the likes of Jon, Dany, and Cersei, the various characters on the periphery all have a role to play. However, more than most shows on network television, #GameofThrones has a nasty habit of recasting its characters and hoping we won't notice.
