Nicole Kidman on Why She Joined Aquaman Cast

Nicole Kidman revealed why she agreed to join the Aquaman solo film.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Kidman confirmed she'll be playing Aquaman's (Jason Momoa) mother Queen Atlanna in the movie. While Kidman hasn't been a part of a comic book film since 1995's Batman Forever, the decision to join Aquaman's cast was an easy one to make for the actress, particularly because of director James Wan.

Kidman is a big fan of Wan's work and has "followed his career since he started." She's good friends with the filmmaker and when Wan offered her the role of Queen Atlanna, she couldn't pass up the opportunity to be a mermaid warrior.

No More Expendables for Sylvester Stallone

Sylvester Stallone won't be returning for another Expendables movie.

Deadline reports Stallone has left the franchise completely, as he couldn't agree on a creative vision for the fourth installment with series producer Avi Lerner. Stallone was particularly concerned over the director and script for The Expendables 4, and just couldn't come to an agreement with Lerner.

It's also been reported that Stallone passed up on what could've been his biggest upfront payday ever at over $20 million. However, in an interview with Deadline, Lerner revealed he isn't ready to throw in the towel yet, and believes something can still be worked out to bring Stallone back on board.

Bobby Roode on That Theme Song Fans Can’t Stop Singing

Bobby Roode came into NXT last year in a big way, quickly established as a dominant presence in the ring, and someone whose entrance was, ahem... "Glorious."

Yes, that incredibly popular entrance music of Roode's certainly made an impression, which the current NXT champion discussed with me the day before NXT TakeOver Orlando, where he'll defend his title against Shinsuke Nakamura. We talked about that song, defining his persona in NXT, and what it was like to finally come over to the world of the WWE at nearly the same time as several other noted wrestling veterans like AJ Styles, Samoa Joe and Austin Aries.

WWE’s Miz and Maryse Aren’t Cena and Nikki Fans

In pro wrestling these days, the veil has been lifted more than ever, as various programs the WWE produces give insight into what goes into creating a wrestling persona and storyline and show the superstars in their daily life, letting us see in-ring bitter enemies as the actual friends they are.

All of which makes this Sunday’s WrestleMania 33 match between John Cena and his real life girlfriend, Nikki Bella, versus the Miz and his real life wife, Maryse, all the more intriguing. On SmackDown, the two duos have had some notably vicious promos lobbied at one another, ones that bring in a lot of issues and insults that work great as drama and certainly feel real (which the best wrestling angles often do, of course) – added to because Maryse’s accusations about Nikki and her sister, Brie, were first said on Total Divas.
