Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet still seem to have a special relationship.

The couple may have separated earlier this year, but the Aquaman star says he and his estranged wife are “still family.”

Momoa, 42, showed his support for Bonet’s daughter, Zoe Kravitz, at the premiere of Batman in New York on Tuesday. The actor was accompanied by his and Bonet’s 14-year-old daughter Lola and 13-year-old son Nakoa-Wolf.

“We are just so proud. “Lisa couldn’t be here, so we represent me and the babies,” Momoa told Entertainment Tonight on the red carpet. “We’re very excited to just be here… This is… This is. It’s still a family, you know?”

The day before the premiere, Momoa shared a sweet message about Kravitz on her Instagram, writing how excited he was to celebrate her latest project.

“ЧИЕЕХУУУУУУУ. SO INVOLVED WITH @channingtatum we are on our way to see our ZOZO. finally the premiere of @thebatman. I’m so proud of you @zoeisabellakravitz, “he wrote, along with photos of him and actor Channing Tatum.

Momoa and Bonet announced in January that they were separating after 16 years together and four years of marriage.

“We have all felt the pressure and change of these transformational times. “A revolution is unfolding, and our family is no exception, feeling and growing with seismic changes,” said in a joint statement posted on Momoa’s Instagram. And so ~ We share our family news: that we are splitting up in marriage. We share this not because we think it deserves news, but so that we can do it with dignity and honesty as we live our lives. “

As of Tuesday night, Momoa’s post about their separation seems to have been removed from his social media.

In a December chat with his longtime girlfriend Marisa Tomei for Interview Magazine, Bonet hinted at a change in his life. Touching on how she feels against the current state of the world, she said she was entering a “river of uncertainty.”

The story continues

“Definitely to learn how to be authentic, to learn to be new and to follow this invitation from the universe to step into this river of uncertainty,” said Bonet. “We’ve eliminated all that extra noise, and now it’s time to dig deeper into our own values.”

In the interview, she also used a similar phrase that was included in the statement about the separation of her and Momoa. “The revolution is definitely here and we are all feeling the tension,” Bonet said.

However, in a joint statement, Bonet and Momoa stressed the importance of co-parenting and acknowledged that “the love between us continues.”

“Developing in ways that he wants to be known and experienced. We liberate each other ~ to be what we learn to become, “he said before concluding,” Our devotion to this sacred life and our children. To teach our children what is possible ~ To live in prayer … Let love prevail. ”

For about an hour, the last episode of Mark Maron’s WTF podcast went completely smoothly. The guest of the episode, Sam Elliott, speaks kindly on all sorts of topics and seems to be building a real relationship with Maron. And then, almost as a last thought, Maron asks Elliott, “Have you seen the Power of the Dog?”

And then it all went to hell.

“Yes, do you want to talk about this shit?” Elliott growled. Maron laughs with a stunned “Oh, no,” and then Elliott continues to give the strangest look at a film that may have ever been uttered aloud.

“There was a fucking full-page ad in the LA Times and there was a video that talked about gutting the American myth. And I thought, “What the hell? What the hell? … What are all these dancers, those guys in New York who wear bow ties and nothing? This is what all those fucking cowboys in this movie looked like, running around with boys and no shirts. There were all these allusions to homosexuality in the whole fucking movie. “

At that moment, Maron intervened. “I think that’s what the movie is about,” he suggests, not wrong.

“Well, what the hell does this woman from there – she’s a brilliant director – know about the American West, and why the hell did she make this movie in New Zealand and call it Montana?” That, damn it, rubbed me in the wrong way. “

Honestly, where do I start? The main conclusion, which is already reflected in several thousand titles elsewhere, is that Elliott does not seem to be very interested in gays. Towards the end of the WTF episode, he justified his bizarre statement by pointing out that he had just spent time in the American West, surrounded by families – “Not men, not men, families“- which suggests that this is the true image of the cowboys he would like to see on screen.

But it really sounds like Elliott just didn’t do his research. The Power of the Dog is an extremely strange film. It is based on a book written by a gay man about his experiences in the West, and almost every review written about the film mentions the closed longing in the heart of the film in the first few sentences. In a recent Vanity Fair interview, Benedict Cumberbatch had to defend herself against allegations of embezzlement. But maybe Elliott hasn’t read this issue of Vanity Fair. Maybe he was repelled by all the swans on the cover.

His assumption that the film is not a true reflection of the West must also be dismissed. First, it’s a bit ridiculous to assume that there’s a force field across the American West that sucks gayness out of anyone who crosses it. But mainly – even due to some statistical impossibility – he is right, then what is the point of saying that all films should be a true depiction of real life? Elliott has amassed more than 100 acting credits in his 55-year career, and it’s no exaggeration to say that some of them were full-fledged cobblers.

Take the 1972 film Frogs, which culminates in a scene in which hundreds of frogs stare at a man while he has a heart attack. Or “The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then the Big Foot” in 2018, where he plays a man who must stop a deadly global virus by literally killing Sasquatch. Or the animated film Rock Dog, where he plays a wise old yak named Fleetwood Yak.

However, my favorite of Elliott’s complaints is that Jane Champion had the audacity to shoot a western in New Zealand. Imagine how furious he will be when he hears about Sergio Leone or one of the other western spaghetti directors. Imagine how angry he will be when he finds out that they have made the latest Batman movie in Scotland. Imagine the fury when he realizes that Robert Downey Jr. didn’t actually go into space in those Avengers movies. Indeed, all this recent WTF incident shows that we need to feel bad about Elliott. He is the only living movie star who doesn’t seem to know how movies work.

Jason Momoa claims that he and his estranged wife Lisa Bonet are “still a family” amid rumors of reconciliation.

“Lisa can’t be here, so we represent me and the babies,” the actor said Tuesday as he spoke to Entertainment Tonight at the New York premiere of Batman.

“We are very excited to be here. … It’s still a family, you know?

Momoa attended the event with his 14-year-old daughter Lola and 13-year-old son Noacoa-Wolf, whom he shared with Bonet.

He was there to support Zoe Kravitz, the 33-year-old daughter of Bonet and Lenny Kravitz, who plays Selina Kyle (also known as Catwoman) in the film, directed by Matt Reeves.

“We’re just so proud,” said Momoa, 42.

Momoa recently spent time with Kravitz’s boyfriend, Channing Tatum, as seen in a post shared on Instagram on Monday.

“ЧИЕЕХУУУУУУУ. “SO INVITED, @channingtatum and I are about to see our ZOZO”, he signed photos in which he poses with the star of “Magic Mike”.

“I am so proud of you @zoeisabellakravitz. Mahalo @wbpictures for the invitation. we are very grateful. ALOHA J and C. ”

Momoa announced in an Instagram post deleted in January that he and 54-year-old Bonet had decided to separate after 17 years and more than four years of marriage.

“We have all felt the tensions and changes of these transformational times. “A revolution is unfolding and our family is no exception,” he wrote at the time.

“Sensation and growth from the seismic changes that occur. And so we share our family news that we are splitting up in marriage. We share this not because we think it deserves news, but so that we can do it with dignity and honesty as we live our lives. “

However, a source recently told Hollywood Life that Momoa and Bonet are giving their relationship another chance.

“They decided to work on things instead of throwing away the towel because they invested so much in each other,” said an insider.

Representatives of Momoa and Bonet did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.

Does Taylor Sheridan continue “1883”? As the first season ended heartbreakingly on Sunday, viewers couldn’t wait to see what came next.

In a quick search, the answer is yes. Paramount Plus ordered more episodes of “1883”, a statement made during a stream of investors’ talks on February 15. It was also revealed that day that the Yellowstone universe would continue with another chapter, 1932, which would follow the Dutton family during the Western Expansion, the Ban, and the Great Depression.

After Sunday’s final, however, Sheridan said he had seemingly closed the door on 1883.

“I created this insight into time to show you this particular journey. I’m not a person who likes to tie everything in a bow and explain how everyone lived happily ever after or not. I prefer to imagine it and wonder what Thomas and Naomi have done in their lives. “You can never see James and Margaret moving forward,” Sheridan told Deadline. “You saw them in retrospect as they moved forward, so I wanted to study. To the next look out the window. I also wanted to create something to watch and be completely fascinated and fulfilled, because I’ve never seen Yellowstone. Let him live according to his merits. Yes, for these Yellowstone fans, there are some real Easter eggs and an understanding you can get from what informs the way you watch Yellowstone. I like this model. For me, as a narrator, he feels closed. I will look out the window of a different era and see what I see then. ”

He added: “We wanted to make a 10-hour film that ended, and we did.”

Does this mean that “1883” is over? Diversity confirms that additional episodes have been ordered, but “the creative message is still being determined”.

Tim McGraw, who co-hosts Season 1 with Sam Elliott, is also interested in more.

“Taylor is such a brilliant writer that I can only imagine what he will invent and whatever he imagines will probably not even be close. So I have no idea. “I’m as impatient as anyone to see what happens,” McGraw said Diversity. “We are somehow as unknown as everyone else.”

Sheridan, meanwhile, has a number of other projects on his joint deal with MTV Entertainment Studios, including “Tulsa King” with Sylvester Stallone, which will debut on the streamer in the fall. “Land Man” starring Billy Bob Thornton and “The Lioness” with Zoe Saldana and produced by Nicole Kidman, will debut in 2023.

Rihanna’s vision of motherhood still reigns. Today she revealed everything in an all-black sundress set with an oversized leather jacket on the Dior show. Yesterday, during Paris Fashion Week, she attended the Off-White show with a mini leather dress and a shirt coat. Last week, she appeared at the Gucci fashion show at Milan Fashion Week, wearing a latex lace top that rose under a fluffy purple coat that, of course, matched her lilac Fenty eye shadows. (And for the afterparty, she arrived in a transparent dazzling Gucci dress with the same purple coat.)

Who said maternity clothes have to be dirty?

It all started in January, when RiRi published a photo dressed in a Chanel archive, complemented by distorted Vetements jeans and vintage Chanel chains. Then the eyes just kept coming.

She is a fashionista and these visions show that even with her maternity clothes, she still is. She redefines what the style of motherhood looks like, not hiding her bulge and wearing what still feels like her. In a recent interview, she said that still dressing as herself was a “challenge”, but she “is glad she doesn’t have to worry about covering her belly”. Enjoy these visions. (Because we will keep updating them.)

With nominees for the 94th Academy Awards to be held next Monday for the Oscar nominees’ annual lunch, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is trying to calm the waters over its controversial decision to present eight Oscars before – and then edited their acceptance in – the TV show of the Oscars on March 27.

In public comments and private conversations with the nominees, the Academy emphasizes that – contrary to some interpretations of its announcement on February 22 – the presentation of all 23 Oscars will indeed take place at the Dolby Theater, in front of a full house, and will be broadcast. according to ABC.

The names of the nominees from the eight categories will be read from the stage and their winners will be able to deliver a welcome speech of the same length as any other winner before being escorted, like all winners, to the backstage.

However, to keep the show going faster and less than three hours in total, the winners of the eight Academy Awards will not be shown off track, unfolding a list of thanks, or doing other things that most television viewers would not miss. The strongest and most emotional moments of their acceptance speeches will later be woven into the live broadcast, as is the case at the Tony Awards, and will be seen on the big screen at Dolby when that happens.

The results of the eight categories in question will be shared by the Academy’s social media accounts – and, no doubt, by others in the room – when they happen. But they will also be re-shared the moment they appear on the TV show.

Will all the presenters and nominees of the A-lists, who usually occupy the front rows of the ceremony, sit for these presentations for an hour before the TV show actually starts live? No, the Academy admits. They are given scheduled arrival times to appear on ABC’s preliminary red carpet show, but will be accompanied to Dolby upon completion of these performances and will be accommodated between the eight awards.

Last year’s Oscars had the lowest ratings in history, at just 10.4 million, and the Academy felt pressure from ABC to make the show more fun.

Shimon Hayut, also known as Simon Leviev, the site of Netflix The Tinder crookis facing a lawsuit from the real Levite family, of which he pretended to be a part.

In court documents received from peopleIsraeli Russian diamond tycoon Lev Leviev and his family have filed a lawsuit against Hayut for allegedly representing them and “receiving numerous benefits (including material)” for using the surname.

The lawsuit in Tel Aviv alleges that Hayut “cunningly used false words, claiming to be a member of the Levi family and that his family would pay and bear the costs of his benefits.”

Judicial documents allege that Hayut “cheated, deceived, deceived, falsified and hurt women, men and businesses” around the world.

“Defendant used the Tinder dating app to find women he then emotionally manipulated, cunningly defrauded, and was eventually persuaded to transfer large sums of money to him under the guise of running away from people who intended to hurt him.” the lawsuit reads.

Guy Ofir, the lawyer for the Leviev family, said this was “just the beginning” of their lawsuit against Hayut, with more lawsuits pending.

In a statement to Metro.co.uk, a representative of Hayut denied that he had committed any wrongdoing. “Simon believes the family is just trying to get into the publicity story after the show’s success.

“Simon also legally changed his name in 2015 and looks forward to being dropped in court.”

Hayut is believed to have stolen $ 10 million (£ 7.4 million) from a number of victims under the pseudonym Simon Leviev after gaining their trust with the promise of expensive dates.

Following the Netflix series, Hayut was banned by Tinder, Hinge and other dating apps. He recently joined Cameo, where he charged $ 300 (£ 148) for personalized video messaging.

Hayut had previously served five months in a 15-month sentence in Israel after traveling with a fake passport in 2019, where he was released on good behavior. He also served two years in prison in Finland in 2015 after being accused of cheating on three women, according to The times of Israel.

Three of Hayut’s alleged victims – Cecily Fielhoi, Eileen Coeleman and Pernilla Schoholm – have set up a GoFundMe page to raise money to clear their debts after the documentary was released.

With more years behind him than ahead, Star Trek: PicardThe eponymous captain will have to answer important questions for himself when the Paramount + series returns for season 2 this Thursday.

New episodes reveal that Picard and his crew are traveling back to the 21st century in hopes of saving the future of the galaxy. As he encounters acquaintances and new friends, he will also be forced to look inward and reconsider some of the choices he has made – especially when it comes to heart issues.

For Patrick Stewart, who plays Picard, contact with the beloved admiral’s romantic side is exciting new territory.

“In season 2, you will see things that will be unexpected and surprising and romantic,” Stewart told TVLine. “I don’t happen to have a lot of romance in my career, so it’s very, very nice at 81 to play scenes like this with wonderful actors like Orla Brady playing Larissa.”

This is not to say that Picard did not experience his fair share of romance while he was captain of Enterprise. Past love interests include Yours (Jennifer Hatrick), an adventurous archaeologist; Kamala (Famke Jansen), the metamorph who fell in love with Picard while promising to marry someone else; and Nela Darren (Wendy Hughes), the commander of Starfleet, who contacted Picard for their shared love of music.

There’s also Beverly Crusher (Gates McFadden). Enterprises Picard’s chief physician and close friend, that both Stewart and Picard EP Akiva Goldsman agrees that the relationship has been significant in the past. “I would definitely consider Beverly Crusher a past love affair,” Goldsman said.

However, Picard remained strongly guarded over his heart, which Stewart attributed to his rude upbringing on Earth.

“As a child raised in a difficult home, he did not understand what the situation really was. I think that left a wound on him that never healed and made him doubt his ability to establish a really close intimate relationship with a certainly romantic nature, “explains Stewart. “He loved his own Enterprise crew and it is often said that this is his family, but we see that the idea of ​​the family is expanding a little more. “

The unexpected new search for Season 2 comes with the kind assistance of Q, the omniscient form switch who enjoys torturing Picard with insane philosophical tests. For John de Lancey, who reprises his role as the fans’ favorite character, it’s important for Picard to take the time to answer some of these long-running questions about himself while he’s still around to do so.

“It’s getting old,” says de Lancey. “There is not much time, and if you do not address these issues and address them now, you will not do so, and there is nothing worse than an unresolved death.”

It is also extremely important that Picard looks inward not only for himself but also for me [as Q]”, Adds de Lancey. “His experience has a direct effect on me.”

With upcoming episodes of Picard exploring new angles of the protagonist’s mind and heart makes sense Star Trek: The Next Generation favorites such as his longtime tormentor Q and Guinan (Upie Goldberg), one of Picard’s dearest and oldest friends, help guide him on this intimate journey. The Queen of Borg (now played by Annie Vershing) is also expected to appear – no doubt due to his long history with the hive-minded band.

“We wanted the people who knew him best, Q and Guinan, and all those people who, with their special looks, Star Trek magic can send us into the world in one way or another, where we can see this past, “said Goldsman.

When it comes to the opportunity to see more familiar The next generation characters entering the field this season, Picard The EP will only reveal that “there is a plan”.
