James Corden has become notorious for having some awkward feuds with other celebrities - and usually admits that he has been the cause of the bad blood. However, the talk show host has revealed that he once had a bizarre run-in with Hollywood A-lister Pierce Brosnan that he is still puzzled over .

Long-time based London resident Tim Burton has joked that the current political chaos in the U.K. might prompt him to leave the country.

Tim Burton described his career working uniquely with the Hollywood studios as a “strange phenomenon” in a masterclass at the Lumière Festival in Lyon on Friday.

After a career spanning nearly forty years, Tim Burton shows no signs of slowing down, even if it’s been three years since his last film, the live-action Disney remake of “Dumbo.” Up next for the auteur? “Wednesday,” his Netflix series based on “The Addams Family” character, starring Jenny Ortega.

There’s a lot riding on Jenna Ortega’s deadpan performance as Wednesday Addams in Tim Burton’s coming-of-age comedy Wednesday, which debuts — of course — Wednesday, November 23 on Netflix. She plays the beloved Addams family character in the series, which marks Burton’s first live-action show, as well as his directing debut for such a project.
