Carla Gugino joins Brad Pitt and Yahya Abdul-Mateen in Netflix's ‘Cliff Booth' film directed by David Fincher
Carla Gugino has signed on to star alongside Brad Pitt and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II in The Adventures of Cliff Booth, an upcoming Netflix feature directed by David Fincher. The film, written by Quentin Tarantino, expands on the world of one of his most memorable characters from Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Production is expected to begin later this year. Details about the plot and Gugino's role remain under wraps, however sources suggest the film will follow Pitt's Cliff Booth, now working as a Hollywood fixer, in the years after the events of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Having won an Oscar for his portrayal of Booth, Pitt reunites with Tarantino's vision, though it's unclear how much of the director's scrapped project The Movie Critic has influenced this new story. Gugino, known for roles in Gerald's Game, Watchmen, and San Andreas, has kept busy across film and television. She recently earned acclaim for her performance in Netflix's The Fall of the House of Usher and will soon appear in Amazon's Heads of State alongside Idris Elba and John Cena. The cast also includes Elizabeth Debicki and Scott Caan. Mateen, meanwhile, continues to build up his filmography with upcoming roles in Marvel's Wonder Man, Netflix's Man on Fire, and By Any Means with Mark Wahlberg.

What the F*ck: Marc Maron's WTF Podcast Coming to an End
It looks like a podcast institution is officially coming to an end. As he announced on his podcast WTF with Marc Maron (via Deadline) , Maron and his team are set to end the podcast after 16 years and close to 2000 episodes. ' Sixteen years we've been doing this, and we've decided that we had a great run. Now, basically, it's time, folks. It's time. WTF is coming to an end. It's our decision. We'll have our final episode sometime in the fall,' Maron says in the latest episode. Maron had started the podcast back in 2009 and has since grown it into one of the most popular shows of all-time with 1.1 billion downloads. Maron is best known for having some great celebrity guests; while most of them have been comedians and writers, he also had high profile guests like President Barack Obama as well as musicians like Paul McCartney. He even managed to get Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio to do an interview together while they were promoting Once Upon a Time in Hollywood for Tarantino. For now, Maron is chalking up the series closing due to him and his team being 'burnt out'. 'It really comes down to the fact that we've put up a new show every Monday and Thursday for almost sixteen years and we're tired. We're burnt out. And we are utterly satisfied with the work we've done. We've done great work, ' says Maron. It also does seem like Maron is focusing more on stand-up and acting. Ever since GLOW , Maron has been appearing in more projects onscreen like Joker and The Bad Guys . He's also been in TV projects like Reservation Dogs and the upcoming Stick starring Owen Wilson. Though Maron is closing the door on WTF , he does say that he could eventually get back to it in the future. He continues, ' This doesn't mean I'm never going to do something like this again. Doesn't mean I'll never have talks like I do here, or some kind of podcast at some point in time. But for now, we're just wrapping things up. It's okay. It's okay to end things. It's okay to try to start some other chapter in your life.' WTF with Marc Maron is set to end this Fall. Watch out for Maron in Stick which premieres on Apple TV+ on June 4.

Sophie Choudry recalls 'walking out of big things' after being asked to compromise: ‘You have to keep people happy'
British singer and actor Sophie Choudry, known for her roles in Bollywood films such as Shaadi No. 1, Pyaar Ke Side Effects, and Once Upon a Time in Mumbai Dobaara!, recently opened up about her experience with the casting couch in the industry. In an interview with Hauterrfly, Sophie revealed she was asked to "compromise" for a role and recalled how those early encounters shaped her career choices. (Also Read: Sophie Choudry reveals her 'funny' experience with ageism: I get messages telling me to 'act my age') Sophie shared, "I first and foremost came as a singer. I already had 2–3 hit albums. And of course, that itch was definitely there to try a bit of acting as well. I did meet a few people. Some very nice people and some people who made the kind of remarks that I was personally not very comfortable with. From whatever I understood, my mom jokes about it now that when we first came here, people used to tell us, 'you'll have to adjust, compromise'. So we didn't understand what they meant. My mom used to think, Yes, my daughter is very hardworking and will work 15 hours if you need her to." She further revealed that she 'walked out of pretty big things' because of this and added, "There's this perception that when you come from abroad, you are easy. So it's kind of like, 'one more won't make a difference to you,' Like you don't even understand what they are talking about. And then it's spelt out in a slightly more detailed manner that you have to keep such and such happy. The best is when they say, 'I want to meet you more, know my potential heroine more,' or 'Oh my marriage is going through a bad patch, and I want to spend time with you because I really connect with you.' All this rubbish and then you realise he'll never make the film and he is just wasting my time." Sophie began her singing career at the age of 12 and went on to deliver several hits including Habibi, Le Le Mera Dil, and Babylove. She moved to Mumbai in 2003 and became a VJ for MTV India, gaining popularity as the host of the show MTV Loveline. She made her Bollywood debut in David Dhawan's Shaadi No. 1, which starred Sanjay Dutt, Fardeen Khan, Zayed Khan, Esha Deol, and Soha Ali Khan. Over the years, she featured in a number of films and became known for her special dance numbers in movies like Shootout at Wadala and the Telugu film 1: Nenokkadine. Most recently, she appeared as herself in a special cameo in Love Sex Aur Dhokha 2.
