Tom Hanks Reveals His Emotional Reaction to Toy Story 4’s Ending
Tom Hanks has said that the ending of Toy Story 4 was so intense he didn't want to face the crew while he recorded his lines.
Speaking on Chris Evans' (the English radio DJ, not Cap) Breakfast Show, Hanks recalled the final day of recording, which also happened to be the end of the movie.
"It was the first time that we were going to be recording the end of the movie, and Toy Story
is going to have an impactful ending," he said.
"The way you record Toy Story, you're in a room with the team that has created it. When I went in for my last day of recording, I wanted to have my back to them, because usually, you're facing him so he can look right up and you can talk about it.
The Most Incredible, Brand New, 42-Year-Old Movie of 2018
When critics list the best films of 2018, there’s an excellent chance that one of their choices will be 42-years-old. That’s because The Other Side of the Wind, the final film from Citizen Kane director Orson Welles, was shot in 1976 and - through a series of unpredictable circumstances - hasn’t been finished until now.
Orson Welles began his career as an actor and theater director, starring in the iconic superhero radio show The Shadow, and fooling the world into thinking aliens were real with his notorious War of the Worlds broadcast. When he came to Hollywood, with an unprecedented contract that gave him final cut on his own motion pictures (which was unheard of in the 1940s, and still almost never happens), his first motion picture was Citizen Kane, a groundbreaking drama about a mysterious newspaper tycoon which would eventually be hailed as the greatest motion picture ever filmed.

The first photo from Game of Thrones Season 8 has been revealed by Entertainment Weekly, and with it, new details about the hotly-anticipated final season.

Daenerys and her army's arrival will invoke memories of King Robert Baratheon's retinue from the series premiere, with a "thrilling and tense intermingling" of characters following, some meeting for the first time, others reuniting with characters they have "messy histories" with.

Will Smith and Martin Lawrence Confirm Bad Boys 3: ‘It’s Official’
Bad Boys for Life has had a rocky development cycle since first being announced as Bad Boys 3 in 2009. But stars Will Smith and Martin Lawrence have now confirmed that the sequel is officially happening.
"It’s been a loooong time coming," Smith posted on his Instagram page. "But now it’s here! Bad Boys for Life. We back!!"
On his own Instagram page, Lawrence wrote, "It's official. Bad Boys for Life."
In May, it was reported that Bad Boys for Life was back on track, but that wasn't confirmed until now, and it came after Lawrence saying in August 2017 that the film might never be made. According to the May report, Sony Pictures is planning to release Bad Boys for Life on Jan. 17, 2020, which would put it a few months shy of releasing 17 years after Bad Boys 2.
