"Cinematic Immunity" offers a workers'-eye view of Hollywood on the Hudson, revealing the intricate dynamics of filmmaking in New York City from 1954 to 9/11.

Macho Dancer was once deemed so controversial that its director had to smuggle it out of the country so it could see the light of day. Set within Manila's infamous red-light district, the film was seen as too risqué and possibly even dangerous due to its honest look at homosexuality, sex work, and drag queens, while also shining a light on government corruption.

Espina humorously admitted to oversleeping on a significant news day, stating, 'Breaking news, mi gente! I can't believe it.' His videos celebrated Maduro's fall but also expressed concern about the complexities of the situation.

Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein earned nine nominations ahead of the 98th Academy Awards, but he did not win the Best Picture award despite the film's success in other categories.

They said, you are here, like the Blacks and the Hispanics, to play the bad guys. However, he ultimately proved them wrong when he was cast as Zorro opposite Catherine Zeta-Jones.

When I read the scripts, I was really blown away by them. I am a fan of Taylor, and I think his writing is fantastic. To me, this just had a certain poetry to it. It was creating imagery of this place in my mind before I had even seen where it would take place. It was beautiful and lyrical.

Abraham Vazquez has this lusty, powerful, aching voice. This song is about loss, and you feel it with every inch of intensity that he's performing.

Teatro Fest NYC returned for its 11th year earlier this month, celebrating a history of Latinx identity and performance through 24 unique and original shows.

Rafael, who previously starred on Empire, the Dynasty reboot, and the gay rights historical miniseries When We Rise, has been sharing clips of his recent trip to Ecuador's gorgeous Galapagos Islands. The 39-year-old spent two weeks on the volcanic archipelago taking in the picture-perfect views and the rich biodiversity the islands are famous for.

I remember seeing it in drama school. I remember being so profoundly moved by it. I remember being so frightened by the performances in terms of seeing both sides to the thing that I think for most of us is, the most alive thing in our life, which is these, like, romantic relationships and the kind of inception of those things and the death of those things.

With all due respect, I'm actually not going to talk about this. I'm laughing because in the intro when you said, 'Oh, yes, we'll be talking about what happened with Bafta', I chuckled because I said, 'No, we're not'.

The project was prompted by a new practice requiring all journalists or outlets who received any non-Russian funding to self-identify as "foreign agents." At first, the reactions of TV Rain on-air host Anna Nemzer and her colleagues, forced to read an absurd disclaimer at the beginning of every story, is one of typically Russian dark humor.

Celebrated chef José Andrés heading to Broadway-with a new culinary collaboration, that is. Oyamel, his Mexican restaurant in Hudson Yards, is set to debut a new taco inspired by hit Broadway shows. Through the food, Oyamel aims to connect the kitchen and the stage, using the taco as a vehicle for storytelling. Andrés has long celebrated the cuisine of Latin America, and Oyamel-with its colorful design and a menu built for sharing-is the perfect spot to host this kind of collaboration.

But rather than walk away from his creative calling, Driven said he pivoted - teaching himself videography and landing his first paid job through a Craigslist post filming Caribbean DJ, and DJ Mad Out. "That opportunity introduced him to New York's Caribbean music scene, where he went on to work with artists such as Shaggy, Ding Dong and Kranium," she said. "Those early experiences sharpened Hillmedo's eye for authenticity, capturing Caribbean culture not as spectacle, but as lived reality," she added.

Rex Navarrete has been one of the leading Filipino stand-up comedians on the circuit for years. A comedian's comedian, he's performed alongside George Lopez, Ali Wong, and Robin Williams. His brand of "Pinoy" humor touches on his life as a Filipino, but all cultures are able to appreciate the themes of his jokes. After all, laughter is one of the great ways to connect with any human. His bit "What are Filipinos" will make anyone laugh hysterically.

Last summer, she was one of the interpreters at his 30-date concert residency in Puerto Rico, No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí (I Don't Want to Leave Here), which injected hundreds of millions of dollars into Puerto Rico's economy. With lyrics that capture the grief and alienation of Puerto Ricans forced to leave home in search of opportunities, Bad Bunny's 2025 album Debí Tirar Más Fotos became a global phenomenon that continues to resonate across cultures.

Arnaud discussed maintaining his levelheadedness in the midst of Heated Rivalry mania, considering past moments in his career where he felt on the brink of success. "There were moments where I thought that something approaching this level of attention or scrutiny was gonna happen," he said. "I tested for Fifty Shades of Grey, for instance, and I was like, 'Oh, am I ready to sign my life away, in a sense?'"

Bernardo grew up in Monterrey, Mexico. From a young age, movement was part of his life. He rode BMX and mountain bikes daily. That routine shaped his mindset. "Being on a bike teaches you focus," he says. "You fall, you get back up, and you keep going." That early discipline stayed with him. It later showed up in his professional life, even when the work looked very different.

I was so disgusted. Like, no, you can't have a murder in this sea of people already dying - that's not right, not fair. We can't let this go.

"When I met up with Michael B. Jordan at the Warner Bros. studios in Burbank before a late-night event on the lot, he seemed exhausted and understandably so. The always-in-demand actor, one of Hollywood's hottest talents, was just back from Europe, where he spent a year directing, acting and producing a new version of the heist thriller The Thomas Crown Affair."

Lucy Liu knew the instant she watched Lawrence Shou's open-call audition video that the neophyte East Bay actor would be the perfect choice to portray her troubled cinematic son in the wrenching Rosemead, inspired by a real-life Southern California tragedy. The 23-year-old Shou, a lifelong Fremont resident, won out over hundreds of others eager to play 17-year-old Joe, a troubled San Gabriel Valley area high school student with schizophrenia whose distraught mom Irene (Liu, in a transformative performance) is dying of cancer.
