Director Sam Taylor-Johnson and her husband, actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson, arrive for the world premiere of her film, Back To Black, held at the Odeon Luxe Leicester Square on Monday (April 8) in London, England.

Gillian Anderson had trouble making up her mind about her role in Scoop.

Gillian Anderson, the star of Netflix’s new drama Scoop, has opened up about the “guilt” she felt early on her career, when she returned to work on sci-fi series The X-Files just ten days after giving birth. Speaking on NBC's TODAY show, Gillian revealed she felt “pressured” to return to the cult show which propelled her to megastardom following the birth of her first child, a daughter named Piper, back in 1994.

After weeks of anticipation, Netflix’s brand new real-life drama Scoop is finally here! The big budget drama focuses on the gripping narrative surrounding Emily Maitlis' groundbreaking and now iconic Newsnight interview with Prince Andrew back in 2019.This broadcast sent shockwaves through the public, sparking widespread uproar over Prince Andrew's association with Jeffrey Epstein and ultimately lead to his withdrawal from public life as a Duke. To coincide with the release, the show’s two leads, Gillian Anderson and Rufus Sewell took to social media to share a cheeky glimpse behind the scenes of production, including the application of prosthetics to transform them into the real life characters they were portraying.Taking to Instagram, the duo shared a carousel of images showing the transformation process, complete with plenty of silly faces to lighten the mood during the long process.

The Duke of York's notorious BBC Newsnight interview is being thrust back into the limelight due to a brand new Netflix dramatisation that premieres on Friday, 5 April.Titled Scoop, the film reveals how the BBC team landed the disastrous interview, which ultimately led to Prince Andrew's exile from Royal life. Actor Rufus Sewell steps into the shoes of the prince, with parts of the interview by Emily Maitlis, portrayed by Gillian Anderson , recreated for the show.The drama also portrays Andrew at his residence, Royal Lodge in Windsor, which he shares with his former wife Sarah Ferguson. However, he previously resided at Buckingham Palace in London, where several assertions have been made about the eccentric nature of his bedroom.

Scoop ( Friday, April 5), centers on Prince Andrew's first sit-down interview about his friendship with convicted sex offender, the late financier, (which later resulted in him stepping down from official royal duties), but the more profound story here is how it happened.That's where Anderson comes in. She plays BBC Newsnight anchor and journalist, Emily Maitlis, who conducted the infamous 2019 interview after months of tenacious work by her producer, Sam McAlister (played by Billie Piper), to secure the booking.“I remember hearing about the interview, but I hadn't seen it right [away],” Anderson tells me over Zoom from her New York hotel room.

Billie Piper has admitted that she is still in debt to Virgin Records.The actress and singer was signed to Innocent Records – a subsidiary of Virgin Records – in 1998, when she was 15-years-old and released her debut single ‘Because We Want To’ on the label.Speaking about the debt, which is reportedly around £9million, she told Jessie Ware‘s Table Manners podcast: “I’m still in debt to Virgin. If I ever release an album, which I won’t, I’d probably have to pay off that debt.

Scoop star Billie Piper, who started her career as a singer and later turned actress, became famous at the tender age of 15 when her single 'Because We Want To' topped the charts. Now 41, Billie has seen many ups and downs in both her successful career and personal life, including a quick romance and tough breakup before becoming a mum to three lovely kids. Here's a look inside her love life...

When Prince Andrew submitted to being interviewed by Emily Maitlis for Newsnight, it made blockbuster viewing. Now Netflix’s Scoop brings the behind-the-scenes story to life and it’s even more compelling. Based on the book by former Newsnight editor Sam McAlister, Scoop looks at how Sam (played by Billie Piper) secured the royal chat for presenter Emily Maitlis (Gillian Anderson), who went on to quiz the prince on his relationship with convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein and allegations of sexual assault against him by Virginia Giuffre.

In many ways, “Scoop” is not the movie you think it is. Sure, it’s a behind-the-scenes look at how the BBC television program, er, “programme” “Newsnight” landed a hotly sought-after interview with Prince Andrew in 2019.

Guy Lodge Film Critic It’s no great slight to “Scoop” to say that it’s no more compelling than the real-life news broadcast on which it pivots. It’s also no less compelling than said broadcast, which was, after all, a doozy: the 2019 episode of “BBC Newsnight” in which anchor Emily Maitlis interviewed Prince Andrew about his friendship with the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

On Wednesday’s episode of the Today show, Gillian Anderson talked about Ryan Coogler‘s rumored reboot of the long-running sci-fi series.

Billie Piper has reflected on her childhood friendship with Amy Winehouse, recalling how the singer was bullied because “she was always doing her own thing”.Piper and Winehouse both attended the Sylvia Young Theatre School in London in the 1990s, and became friends during their time there. Now, in an interview on Jessie Ware’s Table Manners podcast, the former pop star and Doctor Who actor has shared memories of what Winehouse was like during that period.“She was always cheeky,” Piper said.
