Some of these names had been acting for years before scoring their breakthrough role and a few struck gold with their very first paid gig, but all of them are impressing critics and fans alike. From the record-setting Quvenzhané Wallis to the multi-talented Ezra Miller, these stars all have one thing in common, they're all under 21.... Read More
The East is an engaging eco-terrorism espionage thriller that has everything going for it: a fantastic cast, thought-provoking script, and most importantly, a beating heart at the core. Brit Marling and Zal Batmanglij wrote the film together (in which Marling stars and Batmanglij directs), using their own experiences and societal concerns to drive the mystery towards its conclusion. Full of poetry and nuance, The East imbues our societal breakdown with hope just as much as they do with accountability, forcing us to question the world we complacently live in.... Read More

Though the actor popped up on radars after his work in the Showtime series The Tudors, in which he played Charles Brandon (1st Duke of Suffolk), there's nothing quite like a big-budget action film that demands skin-tight clothing and intense brooding to make a man everyone's new crush....

While it originally went off the air in 1989, it was brought back in 2005 by Russell T.

If you haven't seen the new Games of Thrones episode yet and don't want anything spoiled for you, this article is pretty safe — though the episode was ruined for me by simply entering Richard Madden's name in a search engine, so be warned. Aside from his role as Robb Stark on HBO's hit series, Madden has a pretty straight-forward professional background, which has been steadily changing since Games of Thrones first aired in 2011. Considering he's still a relative newcomer to the screen, here are a few things you may not have known about our favorite "King in the North."... Read More
