On Yer' Broomstick: Daniel Radcliffe Helps Victim Slashed By Moped Attackers
Hollywood may be known for its nimble stuntmen, but it looks like Tom Cruise isn't the only star willing to do his own stunts — only this time, it isn't for the latest blockbuster. Remember when Tom Hardy chased that thief down the street? Well it seems there is another actor in the running for a role in the real-life Avengers. #HarryPotter star — and occasional wang-out horse harasser — Daniel Radcliffe was here to save the day during a recent knife attack in central London.

This 'Sandlot' Star Could Face Jail Time For Assault
We all remember Benny "The Jet" Rodriguez from the modern, classic family movie, The Sandlot. He was the leader of the pack, and we all wanted to have a friend like him growing up. Benny was the most passionate kid on the block for baseball, even going so far as to form the sandlot baseball team.

Wearing A Madge Of Dishonor: Sharon Stone Responds To Madonna After Being Called 'Mediocre'
As blonde bombshells go, both Madonna and Sharon Stone are two of the most fearsome women in Tinsel Town. I wouldn't fancy my chances against either the Material Girl or the spread legs of Catherine Tramell, but the two starlets could be about to go head to head. Picking your fights wisely is common sense these days, and we have already seen the various Taylor Swift/Katy Perry feuds tear pop culture apart. However, is there a new Swifty-esque skirmish on the horizon?

Stone The Crows: George R.R. Martin Disagrees With One Major 'Game Of Thrones' Change
There is no denying that HBO's Game of Thrones is one of the biggest spectacles ever to grace the small screen. Turning George R.R. Martin's acclaimed Song of Ice and Fire saga into an eight-season show is no mean feat, while showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss have now started using the novels as only a rough guide to where they are taking their own vision.

Wait, So Jesse Eisenberg Isn't Playing Lex Luthor in Batman vs Superman?
There has been a great deal of speculation and doubt about Jesse Eisenberg's portrayal of Lex Luthor in Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice, but it seems as though he won't actually be playing Lex Luthor... at least not the Lex Luthor we know from the comics. If that's true, then who is he portraying?

Kingsman Star Taron Egerton Is Stuck Between Two Big-Budget Films!
Earlier this year, 'Kingsman: The Secret Service' made a big splash in Hollywood and turned the relatively unknown Taron Egerton into one of the most highly sought after actors of the year. His success isn't unfounded and he's sure to have a bright future ahead of him, especially once it was announced that Kingsman would be on the fast track for a sequel. Yet, with his sudden rise as a hot commodity in Hollywood it is beginning to cause conflict between two large studios both vying for Taron's time.

10 Celebrities You Probably Had Crushes On If You were Born Before 1990
I was born in 1985, and growing up there were so many family friendly shows available. Not to mention the classic cartoons that most people born 10 years later wouldn't even be able to relate to. If you are in the same generation as I am, you may have had a Super Nintendo or a Gameboy, you may remember cassette tapes and walkman players, you probably had a VCR and a wall of VHS tapes and you probably loved watching shows like Saved by the Bell, Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Home Improvement, Family Matters and the entire T.G.I.F. lineup.

It looks like the expanding MCU has lost another of its big stars, and just as we head into Avengers: Infinity War. Promising to be the team-up of all team-ups, the good and the bad of Marvel are looking to take on the Mad Titan Thanos in the two-part #Avengers ensemble. Basically, it seems like it's now or never for many of the #MCU's forgotten characters, but #TimRoth has confirmed he won't be back as Emil Blonsky.

Alongside Christian Bale, it looks like LaBeouf is becoming one of the most volatile celebrities out there after his latest arrest.

No More Monkey Business: Matt Reeves Says 'The Batman' Is His New Apes Franchise
It sounds like it is time to stop "monkeying" around, as Matt Reeves is ready to move on from War for the Planet of the Apes and turn his attention to The Batman. Swapping simians for bats, the director is finally on track to unfurl the Dark Knight's wings and bring us the first #Batman solo film since Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises. However, although #MattReeves will be putting his own stamp on the DC staple, it sounds like he will be taking some heavy influence from his two Apes films to bring #TheBatman to life.
