A column chronicling conversations and events on the awards circuit.

Brent Lang Executive Editor “Your Place or Mine” is the story of two best friends named Peter and Debbie who slowly come to realize that they are a perfect match. The film, which debuted on Feb. 10, is a bit of a throwback to the glory days of rom-coms, a period in the 1990s and early aughts when Julia Roberts, Sandra Bullock, Matthew McConaughey and other spunky stars met cute to the delight of moviegoers. And that’s not just in the casting of Reese Witherspoon and Ashton Kutcher, veterans of the genre, in the two central roles, or that “Your Place or Mine” was written and directed by Aline Brosh McKenna, who previously penned “27 Dresses” and “The Devil Wears Prada.” “What we always intended to make was a really premium romantic comedy that would resonate with an audience that wanted to watch a movie that would bring them joy,” says Lauren Neustadter, president of film and TV at Hello Sunshine, Witherspoon’s media company. “People love Reese and Ashton in this type of movie, so that’s an exciting thing to see them together.”

Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis are back home after a fun weekend with friends.

Netflix’s February rotation has much more to offer than just romance movies, though if you’re looking to extend the Valentine’s Day mood, several options like the Reese Witherspoon rom-com “Your Place Or Mine” from “The Devil Wears Prada” scribe Aline Brosh McKenna will warm your heart. “La La Land” could also satisfy the longing for a love story, but self-love is the most important, and “Eat, Pray, Love” can help you with that. For those not feeling the love, “Lyle Lyle, Crocodile” promises fun for the whole family with the help of music from “La La Land” composers Benj Pasek and Justin Paul.

Ashton Kutcher has a very interesting coffee order!

It doesn’t look like Disney will be the only studio pursuing live-action versions of the most iconic films in its animation library. The Hollywood Reporter reports that Universal Pictures wants to develop a live-action adaptation of their beloved fantasy-adventure “How To Train Your Dragon” movies from DreamWorks Animation.

Ashton Kutcher takes his coffee a bit differently from everyone else.

Ashton Kutcher likes a splash of orange juice in his coffee. Let him explain. After all, he majored in biochemical engineering in college, so he may be on to something.The 45-year-old actor appeared on  and played a game where he had to convince the audience why his obsession should be their obsession.

Say what now? Ashton Kutcher revealed that he doesn’t like creamer in his coffee — and spikes it with orange juice instead.

Fashion designer, celebrity stylist and “Project Runway” judge Brandon Maxwell has made his mark at New York Fashion Week.From Reese Witherspoon’s viral red carpet moment with Ashton Kutcher, to Lady Gaga’s 2019 Oscar dress, chances are you’ve swooned over a Brandon Maxwell original.So it’s no surprise that Gaga’s former fashion director has a slew of famous fans. Leah Michelle, Natalia Bryant and more kicked off Valentine’s Day in a midtown Manhattan garage to get a first glimpse of his 2023 fall runway.

Ashton Kutcher says he has a clear recollection of the night he told Mila Kunis that he loved her.

You is back with a bang. Season 4, Part 1 of the murder-mystery series put up 92.1M hours viewed since its February 9 release date, making it Netflix‘s most-viewed title of the week.

Ashton Kutcher appeared on “The Kelly Clarks On Show” and explained that he reads “River Rose and the Magical Lullaby,” a children’s book by Kelly, to his children every night and that he’s always wondered how the lullaby actually goes. As Ashton and Kelly perform their renditions of the song, Ashton makes a funny apology to Wyatt for his performance.

Ashton Kutcher has been open about the health issues he's battled for the past few years, but now he's revealing how those struggles led him to pushing himself at the South Pole. "I had a weird autoimmune disorder three years ago," he shared on "The Late Late Show with James Corden." "So last year, I was like, 'I am just going to push myself to the end of my physical capacity in every form.'" As part of this mission, he said, "I went to the South Pole, I ran a marathon, I went ‘Running Wild with Bear Grylls.’ I was just going to push it as far as I can just to get the self-confidence that I'm fully back, which I am." During the trip, Kutcher climbed a mountain and was given the opportunity to name it – and his mind instantly went to his wife Mila Kunis.

Ashton Kutcher has looked back on the time he crossed paths with singing sensation Harry Styles - but the actor admitted he didn't realise it was the former One Direction star at first. Ashton, 44, explained that he and his wife Mila Kunis, 39, attended a neighbour's karaoke party some time ago, which also saw Harry, 29, attend the event. And after Harry got up to sing an ABBA hit, the couple approached the star to tell him how good he was on stage, without realising he was in fact, Harry Styles.

At the heart of Aline Brosh McKenna’s directorial debut “Your Place Or Mine” lies a personal story. The Netflix rom-com stars Reese Witherspoon as single mom Debbie, who lives in Los Angeles with her son Jack (Weslely Kimmel) and Ashton Kutcher as New York-based bachelor Peter, who have been good friends for 20 years. Debbie originally plans to stay at Peter’s apartment with him in order to finish a masters accounting program so that she can get a new job, but when her babysitter cancels at the last minute, Peter offers to fly to Los Angeles to watch Jack so that Debbie can complete her degree. “On the most surface level, it’s personal, because I stayed in my friend Ted’s apartment when he was a bachelor. So that was the inspiration,” she said.

Your Place or Mine? Whatever Ashton Kutcher and Reese Witherspoon choose — the two star opposite each other in the new rom-com — they certainly won’t be headed to the That ‘70s Show alum’s house.

“The Devil Wears Prada” and “27 Dresses” writer Aline Brosh McKenna’s directorial debut “Your Place Or Mine” stars Reese Witherspoon and Ashton Kutcher. A strong ensemble cast includes Steve Zahn, Jesse Williams, Tig Notaro and Zoe Chao along with Wesley Kimmel.

There is nothing particularly original or groundbreaking in the new Netflix rom-com Your Place or Mine, yet it is just that comfortable familiarity in a movie that isn’t trying to rewrite the rules of engagement in a time-worn genre that makes this pleasing confection a perfect Valentine’s Day offering. In fact, it is the streamers who are filling the bill for couples looking for a little love in their moviegoing, and this one marking a stylish feature directorial debut for veteran screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna (The Devil Wears Prada, 27 Dresses)is sweet enough to make staying at home on the couch for Cupid’s big day a fine alternative to get into the mood.

Good romantic comedies have been a rare beast as of late. Lazy scripts, lackluster directing, and leads with no chemistry have plagued the genre in the last few years.
