It’s become customary for Netflix to share these film previews early in the year, but this one takes on added significance amid a slump in business for the streamer. In the past year, the company reported multiple quarterly losses and cancelled a slew of shows, which hasn’t exactly instilled consumers with optimism.

To help recoup costs, the streamer also launched a low-cost ad-supported tier in November while preparing a password sharing paywall for early this year. The latter move has been met with significant criticism, especially when it had previously made tweets like “love is sharing a password.” A specific rollout date for the password sharing paywall has not yet been confirmed.

Brad Pitt goes to therapy every week following his bitter split from Angelina Jolie.

The 54-year-old actor has also quit drinking alcohol and is doing his best to be a better man and a good father to Maddox, 16, Pax, 13, Zahara, 12, Shiloh, 11 and nine-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne, over a year after splitting from their mother.

Asource told Us Weekly Magazine: "He goes to therapy every week and is mostly interested in learning and bettering himself as a man and father."

The ‘World War Z’ star prefers to keep things "private and safe" when he has visitation time with his children, but he would love to spend more time with them.

The insider said: "Brad doesn’t go out much with the kids or leave the house. But Brad would definitely like to spend more time with them than he does.

"He prefers to keep things very private and safe. It’s his sanctuary and just being there is where he finds peace.

"He has projects around the house and is always making things or changing things around."

As well as spending time with his children, Brad is reportedly reconnecting with old friends including ‘Fight Club’ director David Fincher and make-up artist Jean Blac,k as well as visiting galleries and concerts.

The source said: "They’ve always been loyal to him and were there for him when the marriage ended.

"He visits galleries and goes to a lot of concerts."

The ‘Moneyball’ star previously admitted his drinking became a "problem" after the breakdown of his marriage.

He said: "I can’t remember a day since I got out of college when I wasn’t boozing or had a spliff, or something. Something. And you realise that a lot of it is, um –cigarettes, you know, pacifiers. And I’m running from feelings.

"I’m really, really happy to be done with all of that. I mean I stopped everything except boozing when I started my family. But even this last year, you know — things I wasn’t dealing with.

"I was boozing too much. It’s just become a problem."

Sigourney Weaver to receive 2016 Donostia Award

Post date 19 July 2016

Sigourney Weaver will receive the 2016 Donostia Award at the 64th San Sebastian Festival.

The 66-year-old actress – who has recently been seen and heard in a couple of high-profile cameos in ‘Ghostbusters’ and ‘Finding Dory’ – will accept the prestigious prize for her career achievements when the event takes place between September 18 and September 26 at the Basque resort city.

A statement released read: "The festival’s most important honorary award acknowledges the career of the North American actress whose name has presided over some of the biggest productions in the last few decades, under the direction of movie makers such as Sir Ridley Scott, Peter Weir, James Cameron, Mike Nichols, Roman Polanski, Ang Lee and David Fincher."

Sigourney’s most famous role has been as heroine Ellen Ripley in the ‘Alien’ franchise – a part she first played in Scott’s 1979 sci-fi horror classic and is reprising for a fifth time in Neill Blomkamp’s take on the killer Xenomorph extra-terrestrial species.

The festival will also be showing an out-of-competition screening of Sigourney’s latest movie ‘A Monster Calls’ and she will receive the honor at the showing.

‘A Monster Calls’ is due for release on October 21 this year, and the Spanish/British fantasy drama film directed by J. A. Bayona is based on the 2011 novel of the same name by Patrick Ness.

Sigourney stars in the film as the grandmother of a little boy, Conor, who encounters a monster, played by Liam Neeson, 64, who is made of leaves and sticks in a human shape that tells him stories.

Post date 10 January 2011

Former Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor and his musical collaborator Atticus Ross, who teamed up to write the score for The Social Network, will be working once again with director David Fincher on his next film, the American remake of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo based on the bestselling Millenium trilogy of books by Swedish author Steig Larsson.

The author has attained an almost mythical status since he died just after submitting his manuscripts, never knowing about the worldwide popularity of his work.

The first collaboration between Reznor, Ross and Fincher was both a critical and commercial success, since The Social Network is up for multiple nominations at the upcoming Academy Awards, including best original soundtrack for Reznor and Ross.

The American adaptation of the Swedish film The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is slated for theatrical release at the end of 2011. The film will star Daniel Craig, Rooney Mara, Christopher Plummer and Stellan Skarsgård.

According to Variety, Black Hole will not be directed by Alexandre Aja, as initially reported.

Black Hole was inspired by the work of Charles Burns, who wrote and illustrated the 12-issue series, which then became a graphic novel. Screenwriters Roger Avary and Neil Gaiman are working on the adaptation of the book, in which a sexually transmitted "bug" is passed from teenager to teenager.

David Fincher has directed several projects for Paramount Pictures. He recently finished work on the drama The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, starring Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett. He also directed the 2007 suspense film Zodiac, which earned $75 million at the box office. Other projects currently in development include Torso and the action film The Killer.
