Nicole Kidman to star in crime thriller Destroyer

OHMYGOSSIP — Nicole Kidman is set to star in new crime thriller ‘Destroyer’.
The 50-year-old Academy Award winner has been cast to play LAPD detective Erin Bell in Karyn Kusana’s new movie, Deadline reports.
The movie follows the existential crisis of Erin, who, was placed undercover when she was a young officer with a cult-like gang in the California desert.
Years later, when the leader of the gang re-emerges, Erin must work her way through the remaining members and delve back into her own history with them to deal with the demons that destroyed her past.
‘Destroyer’ will be fully financed by 30WEST and written by ‘The Invitation’ scribes Phil Hay and Matt Manfredi.
Kidman has a busy year ahead of her as she is currently filming the DC Extended Universe movie ‘Aquaman’, as well as ‘Untouchable’ and ‘She Came To Me’.
The Oscar winner also had a successful 2017 by starring in a number of hit movies and TV series including ‘The Beguiled’, ‘The Killing of a Sacred Deer’, ‘Top of the Lake’.
Despite turning 50 this year, Nicole previously revealed she is getting more work than ever and thinks that is down to her working in television on the hit HBO drama ‘Big Little Lies’ series.
She said: “I’m turning 50 this year and I’ve never had more work than right now. And that’s partly because I work in television, I can work on films that are made to be shown on a small screen and I can work on films shown on a big screen. As an actor I get to work in all of the mediums.”
Recently the actress also revealed she is keen to make a follow up to the first instalment of ‘Big Little Lies’, which was named Outstanding Limited Series at the 69th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards in September.
Speaking about the future of the show, which was based on the book of the same name penned by Liane Moriarty, Kidman said: “I mean, we want to do it. We love these women. And it’s just trying to move pieces and it’s complicated.”

Dave Bautista loves Avengers: Infinity War trailers

OHMYGOSSIP — Dave Bautista loves what he has seen of ‘Avengers: Infinity War’.
The 48-year-old wrester-turned-actor stars as Drax the Destroy in the ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ movies and is set to reprise his role in the epic third movie in the ‘Avengers’ franchise by brothers Joe and Anthony Russo and admitted it’s “really exciting”.
In a recent interview with CBR.com, he said: “I’ve seen the little teaser trailers that they’ve put together, and it feels big. It feels enormous. It’s really exciting. And that’s what it feels like – it really feels like we’re building this up, this culmination of years and years and years of work that’s just all coming together. It’s an odd feeling, because you know, we had our own little thing going, it was a fun little family with ‘Guardians’, and it’s somewhat been broke up.
“It’s weird going to set and filming or playing Guardians without James [Gunn] there. It’s really an odd feeling. I love the Russo brothers, man – they’re great and they’ve been very good to me.
“They’re just incredible directors. But it’s just an odd feeling, but you feel that we’re on to something big.”
‘Avengers: Infinity War’ will see the hero squad – Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), Captain America (Chris Evans), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), The Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen), Vision (Paul Bettany), Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) and Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) – join forces with the Guardians of the Galaxy to save the Earth.
The two teams will have to work together to fight intergalactic tyrant Thanos, with some help from newcomers Spider-Man (Tom Holland), Black Panther (Chadwick Boseman) and the screen debut of Captain Marvel (Brie Larson).
Although working with an all-star cast, Bautista also revealed his dream was to interact with Downey.
He said: “Yeah, I’m excited, but my dream was to really interact with Robert Downey Jr., and it’s gonna happen.
“Well before we even were announced for this, I went to the second ‘Avengers’ premiere in London, and he went out of his way to come up to me and tell me how much he loved ‘Guardians’.
“That was a big deal to me, you know? That was a huge deal to me. So I already knew kind of who he was as a person and what he was about before we got on set, so I felt comfortable with him.”

Denis Villeneuve: I felt intimidated making Blade Runner 2049

OHMYGOSSIP — Denis Villeneuve was “scared” about making ‘Blade Runner 2049’.
The 50-year-old director helmed the much-discussed sequel to the 1982 sci-fi movie ‘Blade Runner’ – but he’s admitted the challenge of making the film was both scary and fascinating.
He shared: “At the beginning, I was frightened to the core. Before I read the screenplay, my first reaction was I thought this was very exciting that Ridley Scott wanted to do it [Scott produced the new movie], but at the same time, I was thinking, ‘Is it the most fantastic bad idea of all time?’
“There’s a trend to revisit all those classics. I wasn’t sure until I read the screenplay. When I read the screenplay I understood what the idea was behind it and saw the potential to make a great movie.”
The new movie sees Hollywood icon Harrison Ford reprise the role of Rick Deckard, with Ryan Gosling being added to the cast.
But Villeneuve said it was the originality behind the new movie that convinced him to commit to the project.
Speaking to Den of Geek, he explained: “There was very strong ideas in the screenplay. I said, ‘Okay, I get it.’ It’s not a regurgitation, it’s not recycling something.
“It’s really approaching it from a different angle with the same kind of poetry. That’s why I felt compelled. It took me a while before I said yes, because it’s such a huge responsibility. But at the same time, it made sense, from an artistic point of view, to take that risk.
“I had done some movies that were giving me the privilege to maybe be part of this project, and I was ready to risk everything because artistically it made sense.”

Fast and Furious 9 delayed to 2020

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Fast and Furious 9’ has been delayed by a year.
The next movie in the popular franchise was initially due to be released in April 2019 but now, executives at Universal have announced it will instead hit screens on April 10, 2020.
The ninth instalment has yet to find itself a director although it is thought most of the main cast members including Vin Diesel will return. The tenth instalment was slated for release on April 2, 2021 but it is not known if this has been pushed back now too.
The ‘Fast and Furious’ franchise is built around illegal street racing and heists and has starred the likes of Dwayne Johnson, Michelle Rodriguez and the late Paul Walker over the years.
Earlier this year, when the ‘Fate of the Furious’ was released in April 2017, the eighth instalment, it raked in an impressive $1.163 billion at the box office and was named the fourth fastest-grossing film worldwide in terms of days.
Dwayne had previously been reported to be reprising his role in the ninth instalment as Luke Hobbs. There were rumours he could have turned his back on the franchise after his character rejected the offer to have his position as Diplomatic Security Service (DSS) back and decided to be more committed to his parenting duties in the eighth film.
The 45-year-old actor also hit out at some of his male co-stars – where he was thought to be referring to Vin Diesel – in a post when they wrapped filming on the eighth movie.
His post at the time read: “This is my final week of shooting #FastAndFurious8. There’s no other franchise that gets my blood boiling more than this one. An incredible hard working crew. UNIVERSAL has been great partners as well. My female co-stars are always amazing and I love ’em.
“My male co-stars however are a different story. Some conduct themselves as stand up men and true professionals, while others don’t. The ones that don’t are too chicken s**t to do anything about it anyway. Candy asses. When you watch this movie next April and it seems like I’m not acting in some of these scenes and my blood is legit boiling – you’re right. (sic).”
However, the actors are said to have put their feud to rest after having a number of private conversations with one another.

Scarlett Moffatt: It’s a dream come to true to present Extra Camp

OHMYGOSSIP — Scarlett Moffatt says it’s a “dream come true” to present ‘Extra Camp’.
The former ‘Gogglebox’ star, 26, was chosen to host the spin-off after she won the main show ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!’ last year because bosses loved how much of a hit she was with viewers, but she has admitted she still “can’t believe” she’s actually going to font the side series alongside Joel Dommett and Joe Swash.
She said: “After last year’s Jungle experience which was a dream come true, I can’t believe I’m so lucky to have the dream continue by being part of this amazing show and joining the ITV2 ‘Extra Camp’ team, it’s going to be so much fun.”
And Joel, 31 – who followed swiftly behind Scarlett in second place on the creepy-crawly series last year – can’t wait to go Down Under and get started on the show.
He explained: “I’m unbelievably excited to be going back into the Jungle for Extra Camp. Ever since ‘I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ got me out of there, I’ve been wanting desperately to get back in there. I can’t blooming wait!”
The duo will take over from Vicky Pattison – who was crowned Queen of the Jungle in 2015 – and Chris Ramsey on the presenting panel this year, while Joe’s girlfriend Stacey Solomon has also been dropped this time around in order for a new vibe.
The 28-year-old beauty said recently: “Aw, I know, it’s a shame, but Joe’s so good at it. I’ll be excited to watch him. I’ll definitely miss him loads, but I love watching from the comfort of my own home. I’m working on loads of different pilots.”
Meanwhile, it’s not yet known who will be entering this year’s camp but the show is expected to make a return at the beginning of next month on ITV2.

Warren Brown did his own stunts on Strike Back

OHMYGOSSIP — Warren Brown did “95 percent” of his own stunts on ‘Strike Back’.
The 39-year-old actor stars as Sergeant Daniel ‘Mac’ Macallister in the Sky One SAS drama which hits screens later this month, and has said that whilst he was given a stunt double during the production, he joked that he tried to keep them “as unemployed as possible” as he wanted to perform the dangerous tricks himself.
He said: “I do have a stunt double but I try to keep them as unemployed as possible. We had amazing doubles that worked on Game of Thrones, but we still did about 95 percent of the stuff ourselves. That said, there’s still certain things you say: ‘You can do that mate, I’ll be over here…’.”
The ‘Luther’ star didn’t put himself in any danger though, as he admits the only injuries he endured were a splinter and a broken toe, which he sustained during a fight with his dressing room door.
When asked what the worst injury he suffered on set was, Warren admitted: “All I got myself to be honest was a splinter. Actually, I also broke my toe after I kicked my dressing room door in a state of undress when rushing to the loo, but that was it. Six whole months of special forces and all I had to show for it was a splinter and a broken toe.”
And Warren admits he had a “great” time filming the drama – which is a reboot of programme of the same name shown on Sky One from 2010 to 2015 – and likened the set to “playing army” when he was younger, only this time he got paid to do it.
Speaking to Radio X presenter Gordon Smart for the third episode of online music programme ‘Red Stripe presents: This Feeling TV’, Warren said: “I’ve literally just got back from filming the show in Jordan, Budapest and then Croatia. The show is all about the special forces trying to save the world, so every day I was trying to do just that – it was great. We were in Jordan flying around in Black Hawk helicopters, one day we went training with the Jordanian special forces and got to fire live weapons. It’s like playing army when you’re a kid, but for real … and you get paid for it.”

Ross Kemp was ‘petrified’ in DRC

OHMYGOSSIP — Ross Kemp was “petrified” when he shot his ‘Extreme World’ documentary in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The 53-year-old investigative journalist has been to some of the world’s most dangerous countries over the years, but he has admitted nothing could have prepared him for his time in the African country and has stuck with him ever since.
Speaking during The Blend Sessions – held in celebration of the new pop-up bar of the same name in East London – Ross said: “Having been to the DRC, that is one of the most extreme places I’ve been to my life. I was petrified.
“When you go to these environments you need to make sure they are they are in the same state when you left as you’re not the Red Cross. I feel like the praise goes to the fixer, as I go there and leave afterwards. You feel a responsibility to make sure the people you’re working with are safe.”
The former ‘EastEnders’ star – who is known for playing bad boy Grant Mitchell in the long-running soap – has admitted, although his work is often life threatening, he’s addicted exploring human beings and how they “work in the world.”
He explained: “I have a natural interest in human beings and how they work in the world. I’m interested in the ways that connect humans. Getting someone to tell you their darkest secrets and the darkest things that have happened to them has fascinated me. When people are prepared to talk, we should be prepared to listen.”

Megan McKenna and Pete Wicks split up again

OHMYGOSSIP — Megan McKenna and Pete Wicks have reportedly split up – again.
The turbulent couple – who started dating at the beginning of last year before splitting over the summer – have decided to go their separate ways once again following a series of blazing rows since the brunette beauty’s country music career has taken off.
A source told The Sun Online: “Megan and Pete have given their relationship everything – but it still hasn’t been enough.
“After an amazing start they have been arguing a lot again and neither of them can handle the stress and pressure of constant rows. They are constantly falling out – there’s no guarantee that they won’t rekindle again.”
Their split comes just weeks after the 25-year-old reality TV star confessed that she was worried about returning to ‘The Only Way is Essex’ with the hunk because their relationship starts to crumble every time they appear back on screen together.
She said at the time: “Honestly he’s been like the best boyfriend, our relationship now is just like better than it could ever be. I’m so happy. I mean I’ve got quite a lot going on at the moment and I feel like I’m juggling it quite well.
“I’m really happy with how we are … That break apart was the best thing that could have happened. It is a worry but we’ve started it with a clean slate – any relationship is hard but we do get picked on Twitter.”
However, Megan may use her current split as inspiration for a new song as she recently said she was planning to pen some break up hits on past relationships.
She said: “I am going to write about my exes – you have to write about previous relationships. Song writing is very personal and I think throughout my life I’ve had so many things happen to me. I have so many stories to tell including ex boyfriends and ex friendships. I was bullied at school and grew up in that environment with girls not liking me. This is all going to put into my songs. I am a very honest person.”
And this won’t be the first time the brunette beauty has written a track about Pete as she previously penned ‘Far Cry From Love’, which claimed Number 2 in the iTunes Download Chart last month – about his infidelity over the summer of last year.

Ferne McCann to return to This Morning soon

OHMYGOSSIP — Ferne McCann is set to return to ‘This Morning’ “soon.”
The 27-year-old presenter – who used to do the celebrity showbiz segment on the brunchtime show when Rylan Clark-Neal was away – hasn’t been seen on the programme since she confirmed her pregnancy and spoke out about her baby’s father Arthur Collins after he allegedly threw acid at party revellers earlier this year.
But the brunette beauty – who is due to give birth over the next coming weeks – is set to make her comeback just before she welcomes the little one into the world.
A source told The Sun Online: “Ferne still has some filming commitments and she is set to return back soon.
“She’ll talk about her pregnancy and give viewers an update on how she’s doing. Viewers are keen to know what the latest with her given the audience it attracts.”
It was rumoured earlier this year that the former ‘The Only Way is Essex’ star had been dropped from the show due to her links to Arthur, but it seems that’s not the case and she’s actually been busy filming her own television series on her pregnancy.
An insider explained previously: “Ferne had a difficult decision to make about putting her pregnancy on screen, but in the end she couldn’t resist the offers.
“Her pal Sam Faiers and Made in Chelsea’s Binky Felstead have proven that baby shows can be a smart career move.”
Ferne was forced to announce her pregnancy early after Arthur was arrested on suspicion of involvement in an acid attack at London nightclub Mangle in April.
The reality TV star dumped her now-former flame almost immediately but admitted at the time that the incident had added extra stress to her pregnancy.
She previously said: “Pregnancy is the nine months of your life when you don’t want any stress. Obviously, I had stress, so I had to learn how to deal with it quickly.
“Loads of women who are pregnant go through stressful experiences, so knowing I’m not the only one meant I could research how other women have coped – and that’s by surrounding yourself with people who care about you and love you.”

Gemma Collins fears she’s entering menopause

OHMYGOSSIP — Gemma Collins thinks she is going through early menopause.
The ‘Only Way Is Essex’ star has opened up about her fears that she may be entering the period in a woman’s life where their periods stop and their hormones fluctuate –
causing women usually aged between 48 and 55 to have sleep problems, hot flashes, weight gain and a slowed metabolism – because she can’t stop yawning.
Speaking to her pal Chloe Sims on the reality series, which aired last night (04.101.17), the 36-year-old star said: “I’m not in my twenties anymore, in fact actually I want to go and get menopause tested. Chloe we’re in our thirties we could hit menopause any minute, this is why I might be yawning so much!”
The thought of going through early menopause is no doubt frightening to the curvaceous blonde as she has made no secret of the fact she wants to have a baby.
And, although she’s still single, Gemma was even keen to have a gastric band fitted, which involves putting an adjustable ring around the top of your stomach to prevent overeating, in order to lose weight and fulfill her dreams of having a family of her own.
A source said previously: “Gemma knows she’s run out of excuses. She’s determined to get control over her weight and face up to the reality that she’s big because she eats too much. Gemma feels she won’t find love if she doesn’t do something drastic and thinks her only option is a gastric band. She knows she’s not getting any younger and has been told she could develop fertility problems due to her weight.”
Last year, Gemma revealed that she’d suffered a miscarriage in 2012 and believes it was punishment for aborting her baby previously.
She said at the time: “I do feel guilty. What if I can never have a baby now? The miscarriage feels like God’s way of punishing me.”

Peter Kay is ‘very romantic’

OHMYGOSSIP — Peter Kay is “very romantic” towards his wife.
The 44-year-old comedian legend was given the opportunity to dress as a variety of TV and blockbuster heartthrobs in the bread company Warburtons’ new campaign ‘Pride And Breadjudice’ and has admitted he thoroughly enjoyed the “beautiful” experience because he’s very loving towards his spouse Susan Gargan and likes to spoil her with flowers and sweets.
He said: “I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and I’m so excited for people to see the final product. It looks and sounds beautiful. I’m very romantic. As time passes it’s very important to keep being romantic. Flowers, chocolates, weekends away, and occasionally I take the wife. Hey!! See you’re laughing already and the worlds a bit brighter for it.”
Peter channeled sultry characters from classic love stories – including Pride and Prejudice’s Mr Darcy, TV hunk Poldark and handsome Sam from ‘Ghost’ – in the company’s spoof scenes.
One shot sees the funny man standing alongside a grand white horse in a three-piece suit, in scenes that echo ‘Pride and Prejudice’, while another scene sees him recreate the famous pottery moment in ‘Ghost’, originally played out by Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze in the 1990 hit film, and wraps his hands around clay as he stares lovingly at a brunette beauty.
Peter follows in the footsteps of action hero Sylvester Stallone, and ‘Muppets’ favourite Kermit The Frog, in starring in a Warburtons ad.
The spoof scenes also retell how the Warburton family business first began, with Peter taking on the role of Thomas Warburton’s father.
And his grandson Jonathan revealed filming with Peter was a hilarious experience.
Jonathan Warburton, Chairman of Warburtons, said: “I’m very proud to see my family’s story on the big screen and think Peter makes a brilliant Thomas Warburton. It’s been fantastic working with the Bolton star and he really captures Warburtons personality. It’s been a lot of fun filming and we’re looking forward to entertaining families once again across the country.”

Shane Richie would jump at the chance to return to EastEnders

OHMYGOSSIP — Shane Richie would jump at the chance to return to ‘EastEnders’.
The 53-year-old actor walked away from the long-running soap at the beginning of last year when his character Alfie Moon fled Walford with his wife Kat (Jessie Wallace) at the end of January in order to find her long-lost son in Ireland.
But he has admitted he wouldn’t even have to think about it if the producers rung him up and asked him if he’d like to re-join the soap because he loved working there.
Shane – who joined ‘EastEnders’ in 2002 – said: “Trust me, if I get the phone call from EastEnders . . .  I loved being there. I’ve got a lot of friends that are still there.
“If I got the phone call to come back, I’d love the idea.
“Every time, you get actors, they always say, ‘Never say never’. And I’ve watched and I’ve gone, ‘Shut up, never say never!’ Because all these actors make out it’s their decision whether they go back or not, and it’s b******s. It’s never their decision.”
Although he and Jessie left the programme almost two years ago, they’ve been very busy as the adoption storyline led to their own spin-off show ‘Redwater’.
The series, which turned out to be a flop, concluded back in June and fans were left wondering whether Albert Square’s golden couple had managed to survive.
Speaking to The Sun newspaper, he said: “Thankfully, Kat and Alfie are not dead. That’s as much as I know.”
Meanwhile, Shane isn’t the only one who wants to reprise his role in the soap as Laila Morse – who played ‘Big Mo’ Slater – is also keen to return to the East End.
She said recently: “I had no idea that would be the end of it. Really and truly, I never left! I think I’m with Kat and Alfie in Spain right now, helping them with their kids. But there was no party of anything like that when I left – and that’s after 16 years in the show! … I hope they bring us all back – I loved working on ‘EastEnders’.”

Miranda Hart ‘thinking’ of sitcom return

OHMYGOSSIP — Miranda Hart is “thinking about” bringing back her self-titled comedy show.
The 44-year-old actress has admitted she’s toying with the idea of writing another series of the sitcom, which came to an end two years ago, after her co-star Tom Ellis – who plays bar worker Gary Preston – gave her an idea for a new storyline.
Speaking on BBC’s ‘The One Show’, she said: “The lovely Tom Ellis was saying… that he’d like to see Miranda and Gary married.
“Now he’s got me thinking! There’s a thought there, to explore the comedy of marriage. Particularly early life marriage and how that would work. I’d quite like to see that.”
The 38-year-old dark-haired hunk set tongues wagging earlier this year when he teased that he was planning to meet with the ‘Spy’ star to discuss a follow-up.
He explained at the time: We may be revisiting ‘Miranda’ in the next couple of years. She is wonderful. I’m going to see her in the next few weeks.”
It was rumoured that Miranda was keen to turn the show into a blockbuster, but she has shot down those reports as she doesn’t think a film would work for the characters.
Asked if there would be a movie version of ‘Miranda’, she previously said: “I considered it and worked towards writing a script. Then I kept thinking, these films never work. The transition from a studio sitcom to a film never works – ‘The Inbetweeners’ is a perfect example of it working brilliantly, because it was filmic anyway. But what are [the characters] doing on location? And we’re not hearing laughs [from the audience], so it’s such a different thing.”

Takeshi’s Castle to get reboot

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Takeshi’s Castle’ is being rebooted.
The game show, which saw contestants tackle a number of ridiculous obstacles in a bid to get closer to the castle, first hit television screens in the UK in 2002 and ran for six successful series before it made a one-off return in 2013 for a special episode.
Fans have been begging bosses to bring it back ever since as it was such a viewer favourite and now it looks like their wishes have been granted as Comedy Central has agreed to revive it for a new series and have hired Jonathan Ross as the narrator.
Louise Holmes, Comedy Central UK’s Vice President, said: “‘Takeshi’s Castle’ is the gold standard of physical game shows and we can’t wait to bring the delightful mayhem of this show back to the UK with this new series.
“Jonathan’s comedic brilliance will add a fresh level of funny to this well-loved format for both original fans and hopefully, a whole new generation of ‘Keshi-heads’.”
‘Takeshi’s Castle’ originally aired in Japan in the late 1980s and was adapted for UK audiences two decades later – with Craig Charles narrating from 2002 until 2004.
Comedy duo Dick & Dom – known for ‘Dick & Dom in da Bungalow’ – then took over commentating duties in 2013, but their presenting skills were heavily slammed by fans.
Although not much is known about the forthcoming series, bosses are hoping that Jonathan’s dulcet tones and quick wit will revive the humour and win back fans.
Meanwhile, ‘Takeshi’s Castle’ isn’t the only vintage game show set to make a comeback in the near future as ‘Fun House’ is also in talks to make a return.
‘Fun House’ host Pat Sharp said: “To get the show back on telly would be great.”

Emmerdale told to stop filming explosion scenes

OHMYGOSSIP — Emmerdale’s upcoming disaster scene was temporarily “shut down” after firefighters feared filming for the out-of-control explosions could put cast in danger.
The show’s producer Iain MacLeod recently teased that the next few weeks on the soap will leave fans’ hearts racing as they’re setting things up for a big action plot, which will take place this month, that will follow on from last year’s multi-car pile up.
But it looks like the crew had a little trouble shooting the scenes as the Yorkshire Fire Service reportedly demanded they stop filming because they felt the special effects were getting “out of control” and were too “dangerous” to continue with.
A source told The Sun newspaper: “They have to have fire fighters on set for health and safety. The firemen shut down filming for hours because there was a few out of control explosions on set which were too close for comfort.
“There was a constant battle between the soap’s special FX team and the firemen and everything that could have, went wrong. The team were furious as it will cost them a lot of money. But the firefighters had no choice but to shut it down.”
The scenes will reportedly follow on from last night’s (04.10.17) episode in which Moira Barton (Natalie J. Robb) was left trapped in a burning barn after she was attacked by Emma (Gillian Kearney) when she confessed to killing her husband James Barton (Bill Ward) by interfering with his life support in hospital last year.
Moira fought against the killer but soon realised she was losing so screamed at Emma – who is a nurse – to tell her that she was pregnant and the baby was coming.
She said: “We’ve got to get out of here. I think I’m having a baby.”
A spokesperson for the soap said: “‘Emmerdale’ and ITV take the health and safety of our cast, crew and production team incredibly seriously.
“When working alongside outside suppliers, special effects or stunt teams if there is ever any doubt about the safety of a sequence, we will always take measures to make sure everything is safe before continuing. Safety always comes first.”

Sinitta’s Celebrity First Dates nerves

OHMYGOSSIP — Sinitta was “very nervous” about going on ‘Celebrity First Dates’.
The 53-year-old television personality split from long-term boyfriend and agent Jason Gale in January after three years together and decided to sign up to the Channel 4 dating show in a bid to find love.
She told The Sun newspaper: “I was very nervous and found the date daunting. I do prefer being in a relationship.”
It comes after a source claimed Sinitta has really high standards after previously dating Hollywood heartthrob Brad Pitt.
The insider shared: “She’s definitely ready to have another strong male influence in her life. Sinitta once dated Brad Pitt so she’s got some very high standards. But hopefully she’ll manage to find a man who will treat her right.”
Sinitta had previously confessed to “still fancying” Simon Cowell – who she dated in the 1980s – despite him currently being in a relationship with Lauren Silverman, the mother of his three-year-old son Eric.
She said: “There’s still sexual chemistry between Simon and I. I still fancy him – there are lots of things I find very attractive about him but I’ve been programmed to like Simon. It’s more than just sex. If it were just about sex, our connection would’ve fizzled out years ago but it’s more than that.
“I always thought Simon and I would grow up and get married. There was a long period where I thought ‘damn, that should’ve been me.’ But their relationship is very different to ours. I’m not sure I can be what Lauren is for him.”
And Sinitta isn’t convinced Simon and Lauren will get married as she compared their romance to Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s, who split last year.
Sinitta revealed: “He won’t marry Lauren. Look at Angelina and Brad – they were together for years and had the perfect family. But as soon as they got married it all went wrong and they got divorced. I think he believes that if something isn’t broke then don’t fix it.”
