We have confirmed that "West Side Story" star Rachel Zegler has been invited to the Oscars after all.There’s word out there that the Academy has invited her to be a presenter, however, they won’t confirm. What is clear is that the actress’ production schedule in London on the Disney movie "Snow White" has loosened up so that she can head to Los Angeles and watch the show live instead of in sweatpants and her boyfriend’s flannel from her couch, as she indicated on Instagram over the weekend to her followers who were enraged to hear that the actress be a no-show.  Rachel Zegler initially told fans on social media that she wasn't invited to this year's Academy Awards despite her film being nominated.

Zac Efron first made his name as a Hollywood heartthrob in High School Musical, but he’s still got fans--old and new--swooning over him every day.The 34-year-old was spotted at the beach over the weekend, showing off his super muscular physique while on vacation in Costa Rica. Wearing nothing but a pair of short blue swim trucks, the actor kept cool by wearing a baseball cap and a pair of black sunglasses.

Zac Efron looked as fit as ever when he hit up a beach in Costa Rica this week. Looking like his character, Matt Brody, in the 2017 movie, the 34-year-old actor was spotted shirtless, sporting a pair of blue swim trunks.An eyewitness tells ET that Efron was enjoying some downtime in Costa Rica with friends, and spent the day surfing.

Zac Efron, 34, couldn’t possibly get any hotter, right? Wrong! The hunky actor is soaking up the sun in Costa Rica with some friends and, thankfully, he has been wearing only a pair of board shorts while doing it. In photos here, Zac is seen multitasking in Central America — jogging, swimming and even taking some time to snap some photos of his own!

An interactive experience based on some much-loved children's stories is coming to Manchester.

Joe Leydon Film CriticLet’s not mince words: “Jazz Fest: A New Orleans Story” is a high-stepping, hand-waving, spirit-lifting gas. Co-directors Frank Marshall and Ryan Suffern, with the invaluable assistance of editor Martin Singer, have fashioned an infectiously exuberant overview of the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, the Big Easy’s unique and enormous celebration of its music, cuisine and multiculturalism, by combining their own footage of performances and interviews at the 50th iteration of the star-studded annual event — the last before COVID-19 forced cancelation of the 2000 and 2001 editions — and archival footage dating back to the festival’s earliest days.Those days might have begun earlier, fest co-founder George Wein reveals during an interview conducted before his 2021 passing, if he had accepted a 1962 invitation by locals to establish the New Orleans equivalent of his Newport Jazz Festival.

No American city is as steeped in native musical lore and legacy as is New Orleans and you get a good feeling for how that came about in Jazz Fest: A New Orleans Story. It’s a documentary overflowing with performers and music that still barely begins to scratch the surface of what’s gone on musically for ages in the fabled, oft-distressed city. Music fans of assorted persuasions will be delighted with the samples served up here, although the subject is so vast and varied that something like a six or ten-hour miniseries would be required to begin to do it justice. With Sony Pictures Classics handling the U.S. release starting May 13 after it SXSW bow, the film is certain to get a nice lift-off and extensive exposure on home tubes is assured.

The Ellen DeGeneres Show has announced its official end date, along with a list of final celebrity guests. On Wednesday (16 March) the talk show revealed that the last ever episode will air on 26 May. DeGeneres’ list of final special guests includes former US First Lady Michelle Obama, Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Garner, Zac Efron, Channing Tatum, Gwen Stefani, Serena Williams, Adam Levine, David Letterman, Diane Keaton, Behati Prinsloo, and Portia de Rossi.

Dare to dream and be a relentless optimist even if you have no experience or skill in your field, amirite? That’s the remit of young actor-turned-filmmaker Craig Roberts (“Submarine,” the Amazon series “Red Oaks“), the director behind “The Phantom Of The Open,” an uplifting story about a naive dreamer who managed to gain entry to The British Open Golf Championship Qualifying in 1976 and subsequently shot the worst round in Open history.

Sony Pictures Classics announced today that its feature documentary Jazz Fest: A New Orleans Story, co-directed by five-time Oscar nominee Frank Marshall (The Bee Gees: How Can You Mend a Broken Heart) and Ryan Suffern (Mr. A & Mr. M: The Story of A&M Records), will hit theaters in New York and Los Angeles on May 13, before expanding to additional markets in the following weeks. It will open against IFC Films’ horror-thriller The Innocents, Roadside Attractions’ comedy Family Camp and Universal’s horror-thriller Firestarter starring Zac Efron and more.

Zac Efron’s done an excellent job of erasing his squeaky-clean Disney Channel image in recent years. If his fratboy roles in “Neighbors” and its sequel commenced the process, then his turns as a paint-huffing pyromaniac in Harmony Korine’s “The Beach Bum” and serial killer, Ted Bundy, in “Extremely Wicked, Shocking Evil And Vile” completed it.

Zac Efron makes a major transformation for his latest flick. In an exclusive clip from the survival thriller , Efron's unrecognizable, nameless character is sunburnt, blistered and dehydrated when he comes across a stranger in the desert.The mysterious woman questions Efron's character about how he got to this place, where he's heading and what he's hiding.

Zac Efron isn’t going to let a little dirt get in the way of “The Greatest Beer Run Ever”.
