Shia LaBeouf to star in Francis Ford Coppola's Megalopolis

Game Of Thrones, saying it was “never the show that pleased everybody”.The HBO series, which came to an end in 2019 after eight seasons, gave Emmanuel her international breakthrough in the role of Missandei, who acted as an advisor to Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke).Speaking to NME about the show’s controversial end three years later, Emmanuel said: “It was never the show that pleased everybody or had happy endings. When was it ever doing what everyone wanted it to?“Watching it as Nathalie the fan, I have my favourite characters and my own ideas about what happened to them or who I would love more time with.”Among the criticisms of the final season was the death of Missandei – the only leading woman of colour in the show and a former slave – who was graphically decapitated by The Mountain (Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson) in front of Daenerys, Grey Worm (Jacob Anderson) and Tyrion Lannister (Peter Dinklage).Speaking about the backlash to Missandei’s death, Emmanuel said: “I think her killing really speaks to how there can be more than one person of colour on these big budget shows.“I think when we do these shows in the future, we need to have this idea of inclusion at the forefront and a diversity of thought and ideas all the way up the chain.”The first Game Of Thrones spin-off, House Of The Dragon, debuted last month.

Harry Styles has not bagged himself another Harry’s House. The former One Direction star, who won the prestigious Album of the Year gong at this year’s MTV VMA ceremony, was rumoured to have purchased a lavish home that once featured on Grand Designs. The seafront mansion comes with a bit of history, with reconstruction efforts that caused millions of debt and a marriage break-up for its owner leading to it being dubbed the ‘saddest ever episode.

On different pages. Olivia Wilde and Shia LaBeouf have differing accounts of how their Don’t Worry Darling experience went down, which was the tipping point of their dramatic feud, but their relationship was strained from the start.

Shia LaBeouf is taking on a new role.

The cast of Francis Ford Coppola’s long-gestating dramatic epic, “Megalopolis”—a film he’s been trying to make for nearly 20 years— has added a bevy of new actors, including Shia LaBeouf, Jason Schwartzman (Coppola’s nephew), Talia Shire (his sister), Grace Vanderwaal, Kathryn Hunter and James Remar.

Francis Ford Coppola continues to fill out the ensemble for his epic Megalopolis, with Talia Shire (The Godfather), Shia LaBeouf (Honey Boy), Jason Schwartzman (The French Dispatch), Grace Vanderwaal (Stargirl), Kathryn Hunter (The Tragedy of Macbeth) and James Remar (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood) being its newest additions.

Francis Ford Coppola’s upcoming $100 million epic feature “Megalopolis,” is shaping up — and it includes Shia LaBeouf. Reports surfaced earlier this month indicating that the controversial actor was circling a leading role in Coppola’s passion project. Now, with production slated to begin this fall, LaBeouf’s casting has been confirmed. Also set to join the picture — which already boasts an all-star lineup including Adam Driver, Forest Whitaker, Nathalie Emmanuel, Jon Voight and Laurence Fishburne — are Talia Shire, Coppola’s sister who starred in his “Godfather” films, “The French Dispatch” actor Jason Schwartzman (Shire’s son), Grace Vanderwaal (“Star Girl”), Kathryn Hunter (“The Tragedy of Macbeth”), and James Remar (“Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood”).

is proving to be a very ironic title for Olivia Wilde's sophomore directorial effort, as quite a bit of drama worth worrying about has unfolded over the course of production and the subsequent promotional blitz ahead of the film's release next month.From the film's early casting shake-ups — with Harry Styles taking over for Shia LaBeouf — to Wilde's high-profile split from her long-time partner Jason Sudeikis and subsequent romance with her new leading man, drama, rumors and mild scandals have permeated every facet of the film's production.Now, with the tensions between Wilde and LaBeouf coming to a head as the actor accuses the filmmaker of misrepresenting his exit from the film — and rumors swirling over Florence Pugh's alleged feud with Wilde allegedly due to her romance with Styles and split from Sudeikis — it feels like risks being overshadowed by the controversy.Amid the back-and-forth allegations and fan-fueled rumors, ET is breaking down all the drama and examining the behind-the-scenes in-fighting and how the headline-grabbing feuds first formed. In April 2020, news broke that Pugh and LaBeouf — as well as Chris Pine — had been cast as the leads of Wilde's forthcoming drama, which is set in the 1950s.
