MY PARTNER MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE TO LOSE WEIGHT:
DREW BARRYMORE

Actress Drew Barrymore says her husband Will Kopelman makes it impossible for her to lose baby weight, as the two are foodies. The 39-year-old star, who married Kopelman in 2012, is running a make-up and cosmetics company named Flower Beauty and branching out into signature fragrances, reports eonline.com. She is also raising two daughters -- six-and-a-half months old Frankie and two-year-old Olive. Joking about her husband at the launch of her three new fragrances, Barrymore said: "My partner makes it impossible to lose my baby weight because he's such an eater and I love food too, so this baby weight is going to stay on for a while. It's just not easy with him because he is such a foodie."

 

 

CAN'T IMAGINE RETURNING TO PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN:
KEIRA KNIGHTLEY

Keira Knightley has ruled out the possibility of returning to the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' franchise. The British actress achieved worldwide recognition for her performance as Elizabeth Swann in the popular franchise, which features Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom, reported Contactmusic. Asked whether she would be interested in the project, the 29-year-old actress said, "No, I don't think so. It was an amazing point in my life, but it was a good five-year chunk.

Actress Jessica Chastain says she has been in talks with Marvel studio for a superhero film. Chastain, 37, said nothing was confirmed as she wanted a strong role in the movie, reported Vanity Fair.

SANJAY DUTT BIOPIC GETS GREEN SIGNAL FROM RAJKUMAR HIRANI?

Ace filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani in an interview with a leading daily has given out that a biopic on the troubled life of actor Sanjay Dutt is on the cards.

According to reports, Rajkumar Hirani has confirmed in the interview about Dutt's biopic, saying that the film will kick off only once the actor completes his prison term.

DISNEY ANNOUNCES 'TOY STORY 4'

Woody, Buzz, and the rest of Andy's (Bonnie's?) toys are coming back for a fourth movie. Disney has announced that Toy Story 4 will be hitting theaters in June 2017. John Lasseter, who directed Cars and the original Toy Story, is returning to direct. Rashida Jones and Will McCormack round out the writing team of Lasseter, Andrew Stanton, Pete Docter and Lee Unkrich, the masterminds behind all three Toy Story films. The third movie tied the series up so neatly, how will the writers handle a whole new storyline? Will Bonnie take the team on a new adventure? Will Bo Peep make an appearance? Will they need to contend with new "digital toys" of today's kids? Whatever the premise, let's just hope fans can endure another round of perfectly packaged nostalgia!

BIGG BOSS CONTINUES TO CLIMB POPULARITY CHARTS

It is that time of the year when lovers of Indian television are religiously discussing the big daddy of all reality programmes - 'Bigg Boss`. After completing seven successful seasons of `Bigg Boss', the eighth edition of the show has set the small screen ablaze in less than a month. While `Bigg Boss` is a source of entertainment and a respite from the daily humdrum for many of us, the celebrities and personalities in the show have taught us a few things, quite worthy of mention. In this mad chaotic world, `Bigg Boss` has proved to be a reflection of reality, where people have become melodramatic to even small situations. No other show has caught the feel of its audience in an apt manner just as `Bigg Boss` has, and perhaps that is why with each passing season, it continues to top the popularity charts.

'SUICIDE SQUAD': JARED LETO BEING EYED FOR NEW JOKER ROLE

The early reports and word from Warner Bros. themselves claimed that for the DC Comics adaptation Suicide Squad – based on a team of villains and mercenaries, and coming in 2016 – the studio would be targeting some A-list stars for the ensemble cast, and that certainly seems to be the case. The latest reports claim that not only is Oscar winner Jared Leto (recently seen in the Dallas Buyers’ Club) in the running for the film, but the role he's being eyed for is none other than Batman's arch-nemesis, The Joker. Margot Robbie, Will Smith and Ryan Gosling have also been rumored to be the top picks for director David Ayer's super villain team-up. The increased evidence of Joker also raises the potential of actually seeing fan favorite villain Harley Quinn in the movie as well, but it remains a mystery if that is the very role Margot Robbie is being eyed for, or newcomer Cara Delevingne. No one knows yet for sure!
