In this series, Team FC scours the best of the internet every week to bring you a list of great reads, watches and more, from the world of film and entertainment.
In this latest edition of Variety‘s Actors on Actors, ahead of the 2021 Emmys, the two stars of two of the most acclaimed streaming series of the past year – Kaley Cuoco of The Flight Attendant and Elizabeth Olsen of WandaVision – chat to each other.
Pete Davidson (Saturday Night Live), Lamorne Morris (Woke), Ben Platt (The Politician), Ted Danson (Mr. Mayor), Ed Helms (Rutherford Falls) and Chris Redd (Kenan and SNL) are interviewed about working in comedy and their shows.
Did you watch The Undoing and Mare of Easttown? Or, earlier, Big Little Lies? In this essay, Anna Nordberg examines why writers are choosing to use murder mysteries as a front to tell stories about the lives of women. Would we not watch them as straight dramas? Read it here.
Harish Patel, a veteran character actor in Hindi cinema, has stirred interest with his appearance in the trailer for Eternals. Patel has been working for close to forty years (his break was with Shyam Benegal no less, in Mandi in 1983), and his most famous role was as Ibu Hatela in Gunda. Now he stars in a Marvel film, though he confesses this will be the first Marvel film he will watch!
Anya Taylor-Joy (The Queen’s Gambit), Elizabeth Olsen (WandaVision), Gillian Anderson (The Crown), Cynthia Erivo (Genius: Arthea), MJ Rodriguez (Pose) and an eyebrow-less Sarah Paulson (Ratched) participate in this roundtable to discuss their process and how much they all just want to take a road trip together.
