Hunter Ingram Kurt and Wyatt Russell never talk about acting … like, ever. Despite being part of what many would consider an acting dynasty, they don’t talk about it. It’s a process they fully commit to and do the preparation for, but at the end of the day, it’s instinct.
Kurt likens it to his days as an athlete, as well as family advice he’s received. “It’s something that’s in your head,” he tells Variety. “Back in my baseball days, you would study a pitcher, you would learn everything about him.
As my dad used to say, understanding the situation and the count and the inning and what everyone is thinking and doing, all goes into your head. But when you step into the batter’s box, you just look for something white.” So, it was new for the father-son duo to sit down and talk about acting when they signed on to share the role of Col. Lee Shaw in Apple TV+’s “Monarch: Legacy of Monsters.” It wasn’t their first time taking on roles playing the same character in two stages of life.
When Wyatt was 12, he briefly played the younger version of his dad in 1998’s sci-fi thriller “Soldier.” But “Monarch” was a different beast. The series is the first live-action television extension of the MonsterVerse franchise. But it shifts the focus from the monsters to the human element on the ground and through time, jumping from the 1950s to the aftermath of the franchise’s first installment, 2014’s “Godzilla.” It charts the creation of the shadowy agency Monarch, and how it scientifically tracked Titans before being warped by government intervention.
The younger version of Shaw is a U.S. Army colonel assigned to escort Keiko (Mari Yamamoto) as she begins Monarch’s work. The older Shaw is a man reckoning with the cost of that work.

Ellise Shafer A Banijay investigation into the bombshell allegations against Russell Brand found that during his time on shows produced by Endemol, informal complaints about the comedian’s alleged inappropriate behavior were not “adequately addressed.” The investigation, conducted by law firm Lewis Silkin, notes that while no formal complaints were made against Brand during the production of “Big Brother’s Big Mouth,” “Kings of Comedy” and “Big Brother’s Celebrity Hijack” from 2004 to 2008, concerns had been raised by members of staff regarding his behavior, particularly in relation to “him asking runners to obtain phone numbers of audience members and female crew members feeling uncomfortable or intimidated.” “Brand was known to be very flirtatious with many of the women he worked with or came into contact with. He would frequently wear just his underwear in his dressing room and would sometimes be naked in front of Endemol staff,” the report states.
Concerns were raised about Russell Brand‘s behavior two decades ago on Big Brother‘s Big Mouth and a rumor spread about his making crew members wait outside his dressing room whilst he masturbated, according to a Banijay investigation published this morning.
