Tom Covers Katie's Belly and Considers a Move to London
Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise walked the red carpet in London's Leicester Square last night for the UK premiere of Valkyrie. They were joined by lots of stars from both sides of the Atlantic, including Kelly Rowland, Dermot O'Leary and Dancing on Ice's Melinda Messenger and Zoe Salmon. The couple then went on to the Ivy for dinner, and Tom placed his hand over Katie's belly as they left: what could that mean I wonder?
Valkyrie: Shallow and Underwhelming
While there are a zillion World War II movies out there already, I kept an open mind going into the Tom Cruise star vehicle Valkyrie. Sure, this is a movie that has been dogged by bad press from start to finish (even due, in part, to the fact that Cruise is a Scientologist) but I can see that there is a fascinating movie to be made out of a German resistance movement involving Nazi officers in Adolf Hitler's inner circle.
High-ranking, aristocratic officers attempting to assassinate Hitler?
Comedians Converge on No Man's Land
Comedians came out in force for No Man's Land's press night at the Duke of York's Theatre last night. The play has transferred from its run at Dublin's Gate Theatre to London, and the stars of the show were joined by playwright Harold Pinter as well as Eddie Izzard, Rob Brydon and Dominic Cooper. David Walliams happily posed with his mother Kathleen as well as his costar Michael Gambon, who's also currently on the big screen in Brideshead Revisited, while Russell Brand brought a touch of Hollywood glamour to the night in his shades.
Monochrome Rules At National Movie Awards
London's Royal Festival Hall was the celeb-filled venue for the second annual National Movie Awards last night. A handful of Hollywood stars joined Brit actors like Emma Watson, Jason Statham and Eddie Izzard for the event, including Samuel L Jackson, Olivia Thirlby (I love her simple black dress), Chris Noth and Maria Bello.
Female Performance winner Meryl Streep, Nicole Kidman and Kylie Minogue also attended, although they bypassed the red carpet and sneakily snuck in the back door — you can see them (as well as those who filmed acceptance speeches like Harrison Ford and Johnny Depp) when the ceremony airs on ITV tonight.
Eddie's Back In England
I've been a fan of Eddie Izzard for a long time now – his seemingly random (but covertly calculated) humour appeals strongly to me in a similar way to The Mighty Boosh. So spotting him out in London fills me with glee, as he's been in the States for so long touring and filming The Riches. The lovely Eddie's been back in the UK partly to visit his childhood home in Sidley and to present an award to his father John Izzard for the work he has done in his local community during his retirement.
Prince Caspian: Heavy on the Battle Scenes
In Hollywood, despite major examples to the contrary, the general school of thought during the summer (especially when adapting fantasy stories) seems to be to rely on battle scenes and action in order to keep audiences riveted, rather than focusing on just telling a good story. This definitely appears to be the dominating mindset of the filmmakers in charge of the second installment of Disney's Narnia franchise, The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Capsian. And I'm confused as to why this approach was taken with Prince Caspian when C.S.
Eddie Izzard Does Darth Vader at the Death Star Canteen
We all need to eat, right? Even his Lord Darth Vader. Well, comedian Eddie Izzard riffs on what it would be like for Darth to do something as mundane (and beneath his dignity) as go to a cafeteria (ewww, the wet trays!).
