Kate Bush beats Harry Styles and Beyonce as Running Up That Hill named UK’s biggest summer hit

Could it be the One Direction Harry Styles is going in is to play none other than James Bond? Chances of the As It Was and Late Night Talking star becoming everyone's favourite secret agent have been priced at 66/1 by William Hill. He joins other longshots such as Thor's Chris Hemsworth and Star Wars' Ewan McGregor to succeed Daniel Craig, who stepped down from the role after last year's No Time To Die. Bizarrely, the chances of Harry landing the 007 role don't seem to have been hampered by his poorly-received acting skills in movies Don't Worry Darling and My Policeman.

TORONTO – There is something overly familiar about Michael Grandage‘s “My Policeman.” Considering the lack of LGBTQ+ representation in media over the decades, tales of closeted gay men and their troubles are not exactly new. And stories about gay men who marry women to protect themselves from public persecution? Well, that’s a tale as old as time.

Jem Aswad Senior Music Editor Harry Styles has announced that he is partnering with non-partisan voter-engagement organization HeadCount in an effort to inspire his U.S fans to check their voter registration status and vote in this year’s midterm elections — and he’s throwing in a free trip to his legendary “Harryween” Halloween concert as an incentive.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Bad Bunny and Harry Styles are back in the spots it’s been hard to force them out of for the last few months: at No. 1 on Billboard’s album and song charts, respectively. But the real achievement of the week may belong to someone who’s hovering below them: country star Morgan Wallen, who has set a record for his longevity in the top 10 of the Billboard 200. Wallen’s “Dangerous: The Double Album” has just established a new mark for the album by a single artist that has spent the most weeks in the Billboard album chart’s top 10: 86. The previous record-holder (per Billboard) was the debut album by folk trio Peter, Paul and Mary, which spent 85 weeks in the top 10 in the early ’60s. He’s also recently passed longevity marks for Adele’s “21” and Bruce Springsteen’s “Born in the USA,” each of which spent 84 weeks in the top 10.

Harry Styles‘ new film My Policeman, following its premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, and they are decidedly mixed.The Amazon Prime Video movie follows a policeman named Tom (Styles) who enters a love triangle with museum curator Patrick (David Dawson) and wife, schoolteacher Marion (Emma Corrin), in 1950s England. My Policeman also follows the three in the 1990s, played by Linus Roache, Rupert Everett and Gina McKee.In a positive review, Deadline praised Styles’ performance, saying that “between Don’t Worry Darling and My Policeman, Styles is quickly proving to be the real deal as an actor, and he is very convincing here as a man lost in deception with his wife.” The review added that while it is a “handsome-looking production”, it “doesn’t quite reach its full potential”.“All six actors give singular performances (perhaps to the detriment of character consistency), but My Policeman is finely made, craft-wise,” TheWrap said.“For relative acting newcomer Styles, the guileless and appealing young Tom is an ideal role, his sweet and vacant beauty offering a blank slate onto which Marion and Patrick can project whatever they want,” it adds.

TORONTO – There is something overly familiar about Michael Grandage’s “My Policeman.” Considering the lack of LGBTQ+ representation in media over the decades, tales of closeted gay men and their troubles are not exactly new. And stories about gay men who marry women to protect themselves from public persecution? Well, that’s a tale as old as time.

Peter Debruge Chief Film Critic English novelist E.M. Forster never married, and why would he? The author of “Maurice” and “Howards End” was gay, reportedly maintaining relations with a much-younger police officer over the span of four decades. That man did marry, and history has it that his wife knew their secret. In “My Policeman,” this unconventional arrangement lends itself quite nicely to one of those slightly stuffy yet respectable period pieces of the kind that Ismail Merchant and James Ivory have made of Forster’s novels, jumping back and forth in time between the sexy stuff (featuring Harry Styles, fully embracing the ambiguity of his queerbaiting brand) and the maudlin way it resolves itself so many years later.

Harry Styles isn’t letting recent film festival dramas keep him away from the scene as he popped up at Toronto International Film Festival this weekend to promote his upcoming movie My Policeman. It was only last week that the As It Was singer was bizarrely accused of spitting in the lap of his Don’t Worry Darling co-star Chris Pine at Venice Film Festival, thanks to a viral clip that sparked a thousand theories. Pine’s rep rubbished the claims while Harry himself joked about the controversy at a show on his Love On Tour stint. With the spitgate drama now somewhat behind him, the pop star can now focus on promoting his other new movie, My Policeman, which received one of its first screenings at TIFF on Sunday. Harry, 28, attended the film’s press conference alongside co-stars Emma Corrin, Rupert Everett, David Dawson and director Michael Grandage in Ontario. During the event, the former One Direction star opened up about how he got into the mind of playing a repressed gay character. ‘I think he’s very curious,’ Styles said in a clip obtained by Variety. ‘I think he’s someone who is born into a very small world and, if you’re born into that kind of environment, you feel like you know where the edge of the world is. ‘Slowly throughout the story, I think he’s realising that it is a little further away than Brighton.

Rebecca Rubin Film and Media Reporter On the stage at New York City’s Madison Square Garden, Harry Styles is a bonafide rock star, brimming with swagger and self confidence. But Styles, the actor, was more soft spoken while accepting an acting award at the Toronto International Film Festival. Styles was a man of few words as he, along with the cast of “My Policeman,” received the ensemble award at the festival’s Tribute Awards on Sunday.  “Thank you so much to everyone here on behalf of all of us for this wonderful, wonderful award,” said Styles, who stars in the romance drama as a closeted police officer. “We all loved working on this film so much. And we hope you enjoy it.”

Harry Styles attended the Toronto International Film Festival Sunday for the world premiere of his film, . Before the screening, Styles talked at a press conference where he detailed how he took on the role of Tom, a closeted gay policeman. Set in the 1950s, Styles plays opposite Emma Corrin (Marion), his wife who is a teacher and David Dawson (Patrick), a museum curator who Tom is dating behind closed doors. “I think he’s very curious,” Styles said of his character Tom.

Fresh from a tumultuous Venice and a Madison Garden concert in between, Harry Styles was back on the festival circuit this weekend for the Toronto world premiere of Michael Grandage’s My Policeman.
