Jaume Collet-Serra had to balance characters in Black Adam

OHMYGOSSIP — Jaume Collet-Serra had a balancing act to make sure all of the ‘Black Adam’ characters had enough time on screen.
The 48-year-old director has helmed the new DC Extended Universe (DCEU) blockbuster that features Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson as the titular character and explained the challenges of introducing a live-action Justice Society on the big screen.
Speaking to Collider about he managed the story, Jaume said: “A lot of it is experience in having done a lot of action sequences through the years that I’ve had to cut down because there were not enough character moments.
“So, you really have to think about character first and what defines character and if you know each character, and you know their arc, you have to show that through action, not only words. You try to infuse the action with those decisions and it becomes a little bit of a puzzle because what might help a character might not help another character.”
Jaume was grateful to have plenty of time to work on the film to make sure all of the characters were well-represented.
He explained: “Luckily, we had a lot of time. We had a great team of storyboards and pre-viz artists. And we just kept working on it until we kind of nailed all of those character moments.
“By the time that we shot we knew pretty much what we were doing. It was not a lot of second-guessing, which is why I think the action sequences look really good, because not a lot was left on the cutting room floor.”
Jaume believes that the movie has extra intrigue as The Rock is playing a different type of character than he would typically portray.
The ‘Jungle Cruise’ director said: “Here’s the thing, Dwayne is a hero. In this one, he was the problem for everybody else.
“And I think that that shift is what made these movies instantly different and reenergised. You could do things that you might have seen in other movies, but in a completely different way, because it’s not your lead guy doing them.”

The former ‘Love Island’ star-turned-singer is said to have split from the 20-year-old model after nearly two years of dating.
A source told The Sun: “Wes has a hugely busy schedule and so does Lucciana.

During an appearance on Capital XTRA, he said: “There’s been a lot that’s happened in my life over the past year and a half, including a breakup.
“That was quite recently.
“Look at me, still shining. Can’t keep a good man down.
“I’m good with breakups. It wasn’t it wasn’t like a bad one in that sense.”
Speaking previously about Lucciana, he gushed: “She keeps me grounded. I get home, I’ve still got the dishes to do.
“I performed with Clean Bandit at Wembley – one of the maddest things I’ve ever done in my life – then came home to clean the dishes.
“That’s what you need.”
He also penned the tune ‘Say Nothing’ about the daughter of a millionaire tobacco tycoon.
Before meeting Lucciana, Wes had said he was putting romance on hold to focus on his music career.

Matt Smith hails Ncuti Gatwa’s casting as Doctor Who ‘sensational’

OHMYGOSSIP — Matt Smith has hailed Ncuti Gatwa’s casting as Doctor Who as “sensational”.
The 39-year-old actor – who played the Eleventh Doctor in the long-running BBC sci-fi series – is thrilled that the ‘Sex Education’ star has landed the iconic role as the titular Time Lord as he can offer the part something special that’s not been done before.
Speaking at the premiere of ‘Game of Thrones’ spin-off ‘House of the Dragon’, Matt is quoted by RadioTimes.com as saying: “I think it’s the most sensational bit of casting,” he said, as reported by Variety. “What an actor – he’s brilliant in ‘Sex Education’.
“I think he’s got something ‘other’ that that part really needs.”
When it was announced in May that the 29-year-old star will be taking over from Jodie Whittaker, becoming the first black actor to play the part, Matt said: “I think it’s an inspired piece of casting, and along with Russell [T. Davies, showrunner], who’s such a great leader of that show.
“I don’t know if you’ve seen him in ‘Sex Education’, there’s a warmth and wit and a real depth to his talent that I think … honestly, I think it’s an inspired bit of casting and I’m really, really excited for the show.”
Ncuti has said he wants to be “himself” as The Doctor.
Asked what he would bring to the role, he said: “Just myself, I think actors are incredible people that put so much of themselves into roles and so each one is going to be really different. Each Doctor that’s gone before has been so incredibly talented and so incredibly brilliant, I don’t know how I’m going to follow in their footsteps but I’m going to try my best.”

Tilda Swinton relished working with George Miller

OHMYGOSSIP — Tilda Swinton’s inner “film geek” relished the chance to work with George Miller.
The Scottish star appears in the 77-year-old filmmaker’s latest movie, ‘Three Thousand Years of Longing’ – in which she plays lonely academic Dr. Alithea Binnea, who meets an ancient Djinn (Idris Elba) and learns his life story, which spans three millennia – and she found being directed by the ‘Max Max’ helmsman as close an experience to working with the late Alfred Hitchcock as possible.
She said: “I had a moment one day when I thought, ‘I never got to work with Hitchcock but I got to work with George Miller.’
“The film geek in me, on the set, seeing the way he tells the story of every shot through working with the camera and the angles and the timing of when the camera should come off the bottle onto your reaction, all of that, that’s directing.
“And that’s not ‘smash grab’ montage. It is very Hitchcockian. As Hitchcock said, ‘Let the camera tell the story and the dialogue can just let atmosphere.’ “
Tilda also compared the movie to the work of Hayao Miyazaki, who directed animated classic ‘Spirited Away’.
She told Total Film magazine: “To me, I always felt like we were making a kind of live Miyazaki movie.
“It’s got that slight sense to it, that feeling of it being slightly animated.”
George himself added: “The Djinn is story and cinema. In my mind, he projects it in her head. What we’re seeing is what’s in her head.”
The 61-year-old filmmaker relished the “geeky details” that Miller used to present a height difference between herself and Idris.
George said: “When he’s really, really big, that was shot in a miniature hotel room.
“You can do that – with a little iPad, little books and little tables and chairs and things like that.”
Tilda added: “[In other scenes], Idris was in the room and he was Idris-sized. But there were various wonderful geeky details that went into making me capable of looking [up] that high.
“At certain points, he wore very high shoes or he stood on things.”

The fashion influencer was close to Yewande Biala, Joanna Chimonides and Amy Hart on the fifth series of ‘Love Island’.

She said: “I’ve been really chill [about wedding plans] and I haven’t really started anything yet.

She added to OK! Online: “I’m going to go to Italy and have a look around there. There’s a couple of places that I really like there. I just need to get the feel! Once I have the place, then I can get rolling.
“Italy’s just beautiful and I loved it when I’ve been there, and I’ve got a bit of Italian in my family.

Taron Egerton pulled out of auditions for Han Solo

OHMYGOSSIP — Taron Egerton has revealed he came close to playing Han Solo in 2018’s ‘Solo: A Star Wars Story’.
The ‘Rocketman’ star, 32, has revealed he auditioned for the part of a young version of Harrison Ford’s iconic character in the prequel, which ended up going to Alden Ehrenreich.
However, he pulled out before the next round of auditions.
Speaking on the ‘Happy Sad Confused’ podcast, he spilled: “I’ll be honest: I got on the Falcon. I was with Chewie.
“I was in the full costume … And there was one more … there was another round [of auditions] that I decided not to do. And it’s far enough in the past now that I feel like I can say that. I hope no one feels annoyed that I have said it.”
Alden previously said he is open to playing Han Solo again.
The 32-year-old actor took on the role in the prequel and even though it failed to set the box office alight, with Disney later accepting they had released too many ‘Star Wars’ movies to close together after acquiring the rights to the franchise when they bought Lucasfilm in 2012, Alden is prepared to return to the role if the story is right.
When asked if he would play Han Solo again, Alden said in 2020: “It depends on what it is. It depends on how it’s done. It depends if it feels innate to the story.”
He also insisted there were no official plans for a ‘Solo’ sequel, despite the end of the movie giving possible plots.
He said: “I don’t know anything about that. I mean, you know, I think our movie was kind of the last of the conventional-era ‘Star Wars’ movie releases.”
The ‘Hail, Caesar!’ star went on to explain that he has heard rumours from the ‘Star Wars’ universe that could see him reprise the role.
Alden said: “I’ve heard some stuff, but nothing concrete.”
The ‘Brave New World’ star made the decision to step away from the spotlight after featuring in the flick, which was directed by Ron Howard.
He explained: “It was basically a three-year experience from pre-production to the release of the movie, and I just wanted to be a person, connect with people in my life, spend time and develop as a person outside of those worlds. And then you never know.”
And he confessed that he had not kept up with the iconic sci-fi franchise since appearing in ‘Solo’, revealing that he had not seen ‘The Rise of Skywalker’ or the acclaimed Disney+ TV series ‘The Mandalorian’.

Goodbye Ramsay Street!: Neighbours sets to be ‘dismantled’ after Aussie soap ends

OHMYGOSSIP — The ‘Neighbours’ sets will be “dismantled” after the iconic Aussie soap ended this week.
The last-ever episode of the long-running programme – which first began in 1985 – aired on Thursday (28.07.22) Down Under and Friday (29.07.22) in the UK, and now it’s been confirmed that the make-believe town of Erinsborough situated on Ramsay Street in Melbourne, Victoria will be demolished.
Terry Smit of Go West, the team behind the official ‘Neighbours’ tour, told the Daily Star: “We are advised by Fremantle Media that the sets will be dismantled and that the space will be used for their next project, whatever that may be.”
The final tours will take place this weekend.
Terry added: “As the sets are being dismantled, there is nothing left for us to tour, so the tour will be discontinued.”
Although Erinsborough is fictional, the tour’s website notes that: “Ramsay Street is a real street where ordinary people live!”
The likes of Kylie Minogue, Jason Donovan, Guy Pearce (Mike Young) and Margot Robbie (Donna Freedman) returned to bid farewell to the soap that launched their journeys to stardom.
The epic final focused on ‘Neighbours’ legend Toadie’s (Ryan Moloney) wedding to Melanie (Lucinda Cowden) with him finally getting his happily ever after.
Kylie and Jason’s alter egos Charlene and Scott Robinson made their grand entrance at the garden party.
The head of Channel 5 recently admitted that the budget for the soap could be “better” used on other programming.
Ben Frow said: “I can better spend the ‘Neighbours’ money on UK shows.”
The show was axed despite a petition launched by mega-fan Edward Skyglover to save the show being signed by a whopping 70,419 fans.

Rakhee Thakrar leaves Sex Education

OHMYGOSSIP — Rakhee Thakrar has left ‘Sex Education’.
The 38-year-old actress has starred as Emily Sands in three series of the Netflix show but has confirmed she won’t be returning as the teacher, and though she didn’t explain why she’s not going to be involved with the show anymore, she insisted “nothing bad” has happened.
She told the Daily Star Sunday newspaper: “I’m not part of the new series. I can’t really talk about why.
“But I’m so proud of the show and grateful to have been part of something so important.
“There is nothing bad about ‘Sex Education’.
The former ‘EastEnders’ actress already has other work in the pipeline, including a part in a film.
She said: “I’ve got a couple of things coming up.”
Rakhee’s announcement comes weeks after Tanya Reynolds revealed she also won’t be back as Lily Iglehart for season four.
She said: “I’m not [returning], actually, which is sad, very sad. It’s just the natural progression of these shows – when you have such big ensemble casts and so many characters, I think you have to let a few older characters go to make way for newer ones, which is absolutely the right thing, the way it should happen.”
Patricia Allison has also confirmed she’s not going to feature as Lily’s love interest, Ola Nyman.
She said: “I won’t be joining the team for season 4. I absolutely have loved my time on ‘Sex Education’, and I’m so sorry to have to break that to you guys.
“I’ve been doing it for three years and I’ve loved it.”
Simone Ashley has also quit the show because her work on ‘Bridgerton’ has left her too busy to film scenes as the popular Olivia Hanan.
Asked about her future on ‘Sex Education’, she said in April: “I get asked that all the time. No, I’m a ‘Bridgerton’ girl now.”

Yasmin Finney wants to be first trans Bond girl

OHMYGOSSIP — Yasmin Finney wants to be the first trans Bond girl.
The ‘Heartstopper’ actress is a huge fan of the spy franchise and would jump at the chance to be cast alongside whoever steps into Daniel Craig’s shoes as the next James Bond because “it has never been done before”.
She told the Sunday Mirror newspaper: “I would love to be a trans Bond girl or just a Bond girl in general. I love James Bond.
“Every time I watch a Bond film, I think I would love to be that cool, sexy Bond girl that has never been done before.”
The 18-year-old star is inspired by Caroline Cossey, who appeared as an extra in 1981 Bond movie ‘For Your Eyes Only’ before being outed as trans by a newspaper, and was the first trans woman to pose for Playboy in 1991.
Yasmin said: “Shoutout to Caroline. She has inspired me in a way to be the positive representation that James Bond never had.
“There are people in the industry that were transphobic, but now they aren’t because of the way things are changing. I’d rather not fight it and be a part of it.”
Yasmin – who will appear in the next series of ‘Doctor Who’ – has revealed she is also keen to play a superhero in a Hollywood blockbuster.
She told MailOnline: “I’d love to be a superhero. I don’t want to pick between Marvel and DC and limit my possibilities but definitely a superhero, like the first trans superhero ever.”
And the teenage actress admitted she’s already been approached by Hollywood executives.
She teased: “I can’t get into it but yeah there are things in the pipeline.”

B.J. Novak paddleboards on his days off

OHMYGOSSIP — B.J. Novak goes paddleboarding on his days off.
The 42-year-old actor-and-director – who has just made his big-screen directional debut with the dark-comedy ‘Vengeance’ – has revealed the way he likes to relax when he’s not in the writing room or on set, and revealed a scary encounter with a shark whilst boarding.
Asked what his perfect day off consists of, he told People magazine: “Paddleboarding with my family on the bay.
“To me it’s like taking a walk on the ocean.
“I did go too deep at one point, and a shark went right by me.
“I kind of didn’t believe it, like, ‘I don’t know what that f****** grey triangle was.’
“And I fall all the time. My mom yelled at me.”
Novak stars as Ben Manalowitz, “a journalist and podcaster who travels from New York City to West Texas to investigate the death of a girl he was hooking up with.”
The cast boasts Boyd Holbrook, Dove Cameron, Issa Rae, and Ashton Kutcher.
Meanwhile, Novak recently admitted having being a Harvard graduate on his CV is “the worst thing to have” on a comedy CV.
The ‘Office’ star said: “I don’t like talking about it. I will, but I don’t like to.
“It’s the worst thing to have on a comedy resume, the worst.
“Comedy is an underdog profession. You’re speaking up for the underdog. You’re saying what isn’t said by the people in charge. But [Harvard] makes people think you’re in a different category. Or that you think you are.”
However, his remark caused a backlash on social media.

Millie Court: Liam Reardon is not a ‘bad guy’

OHMYGOSSIP — Millie Court has insisted “nothing happened” to spark her break-up with Liam Reardon.
The blonde beauty announced earlier this month she had split from her boyfriend just under a year after they won ‘Love Island’ but she’s dismissed speculation Liam – who famously upset Millie when he kissed Lillie Haynes during his stint in Casa Amor on the dating show – had been unfaithful to her and stressed he is “not a bad guy”.
She told Fabulous magazine: “It’s not true.
“Because of Casa Amor, people go, ‘Liam’s obviously cheated again,’ and it’s not the case. Nothing happened for us to [break up]. No one cheated.
“It just was a decision that we made because it wasn’t right for us. I want to stick up for Liam and have his back. He’s not a bad guy.”
The 25-year-old star insisted she and Liam still “get on really, really well and have a laugh together”, and she hopes they will stay friends as her own parents did when they split when she was just three years old.
She said: “When they’re in the same room, my dad makes my mum laugh loads and it’s really nice to see that they’re on good terms.
“I’m obviously not totally OK. I’m the best Millie that I can be and going through something that’s not very nice.
“Anyone who goes through a break-up feels the same. We all know what heartbreak feels like.
“Liam is the one person I saw every day who understood the life-changing experiences we were both going through. We can’t just cut things off, and we’ll still support each other in all that we do.”
While Millie’s career has taken off since she won the show, landing various endorsement deals and collaborations with ASOS and Puma, Liam hasn’t capitalised on his success from the show in the same way, but the former buyers’ administrator insisted the difference in their fortunes didn’t cause problems in their relationship.
She said: “No, [Liam] was always supportive of me, so we rode through it together and he literally cheered me on with every single thing I did.”

Chelsee Healey’s daughter targeted by online trolls

OHMYGOSSIP — Chelsee Healey’s five-year-old daughter has been subjected to racist abuse online.
The ‘Hollyoaks’ actress finds it “heartbreaking” when trolls focus their attention on her little girl Coco – who she has with former partner Jack Malloy – but she refuses to get drawn into a war of words with the bullies.
She told the Daily Star Sunday newspaper: “My daughter gets sent racist abuse through ­social media.
“I’ve been sent a lot of messages about Coco. When it’s about an innocent child it’s not nice. It’s heartbreaking. But I try not to reply back. I don’t entertain it.”
The 33-year-old star admitted she’s been a target for trolls for years, with things getting particularly bad when she took part in ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ in 2011, on which she came second with partner Pasha Kovalev.
She said: “When I was on ‘Strictly’, I got a lot of hate. It’s such a big show – that was the first time a lot of people had seen me. I got called ‘hippo’ and things like that.
“I’m quite thick-skinned. But when they send stuff about your child it’s a completely different ballgame.
“If they go out of their way to say something nasty about someone, then they are the ones with the problem.”
Chelsee no longer searches online to find out what people have been saying about her because there is “always” some “nasty stuff”.
She said: “I don’t go searching for comments about TV shows I’m doing anymore. If I get nice tweets, that’s really lovely.
“But I don’t search because you’ll always find nasty stuff.”
The actress is thankful for the supportive atmosphere on ‘Hollyoaks’ when she’s dealing with the online abuse.
She said: “We have a cast liaison rep who we can speak to whenever we need it. And as a cast, we support each other. We are really close.
“If someone is having a s*** day, the ­others will notice it and help them.”

Colin Farrell wants to star in The Batman sequel

OHMYGOSSIP — Colin Farrell would love to star in a sequel to ‘The Batman’.
The 46-year-old actor portrayed mobster Oswald ‘Oz’ Cobblepot aka the Penguin opposite Robert Pattinson as the Caped Crusader and while he will start work on a standalone HBO Max series about his character next year, he’d also love to be back on the big screen in the main saga because he had such a great time filming the first movie.
Asked if he’d been open to joining Robert and director Matt Reeves on a sequel, he told ‘Entertainment Tonight’: “Oh my god, you kidding me?! It’s so much fun, are you joking [with] me? I’ve been around the block man. That was an easy sport, I mean … it was a joy.
“Matt’s up to his b*******, you know, hovering over the keyboard and just planning the story because he’s just so meticulous.
“He’s so obsessive about what he does, but he’s all over [HBO Max’s] The Penguin [series] as well. I mean, he’s not gonna direct it but he’s all over the structure of the scripts and who’s gonna direct them. And so, it’s exciting.”
Colin insisted he couldn’t have made the Penguin who he is was without the incredible work of make-up artist and prosthetics designer Michael Marino.
He said: “I was hidden beneath Mike Marino’s work. Mike Marino’s such a genius — what he did, what he created. I’ve never had less ownership about a part I played than I have over [Oz]. I really can’t. It’s 50-50, maybe 49-51 in his favour.”
Matt teased in April that he was working on a follow-up to the DC blockbuster.
He said: “Thank you all for your tremendous support for ‘The Batman’. We couldn’t have gotten here without the faith and enthusiasm of all your teams around the world.
“I’m excited to jump back into this world for the next chapter.”

Will Poulter wants to make another musical

OHMYGOSSIP — Will Poulter would “jump at the opportunity” to make another musical.
The 29-year-old actor had a great time working on heist film ‘The Score’ and its soundtrack with co-stars Naomi Ackie and Johnny Flynn and he’d love the chance to sing on camera again in the future.
He said: “’The Score’ is the closest thing I have to a mixtape because I’m involved in several tracks.
“Recording those songs with Naomi and Johnny was one of the most fun periods of my life.
“It was a lovely introduction to the world of musicals, I would jump at the opportunity [to do more].”
And while Will is usually a reluctant dancer, he felt “totally at ease” showing off his moves with Naomi in the film.
He told Total Film magazine: “I try to avoid dancing at all costs.
“I need to have had several tequilas to even attempt dancing.
“If I can hide behind a character I’ll dance.
“I felt totally at ease dancing with Naomi in ‘The Score’.
The musical also forced the British star to face one of his fears for a particular scene.
He said: “I’m not the most confident driver. It took me a few takes on ‘The Score’ just doing one high-speed reverse.”
Will hailed the film’s director Malachi Smyth for the way he coordinated fight scenes to music in the film.
He explained: “There’s a sequence in ‘The Score’ that’s one of the most fun fights I’ve ever done.
“The way our director Malachi times it all to music is kind of genius.
“It was a real laugh, even rehearsing it I got the giggles.
“I’ve always loved learning those skills – but I think it was Mike Tyson who said, ‘Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face.’ “

Gemma Owen’s mum will arrive in ‘Love Island’ villa to give verdict on teen’s romance with Luca Bish

OHMYGOSSIP — Gemma Owen’s mum will arrive in the ‘Love Island’ villa tonight to deliver her verdict on the teen’s relationship with Luca Bish.
It comes after Louise Owen, wife of former footballer Michael, spoke out against the “bullying” of Tasha Ghouri, with Luca singled out for his behaviour by fans.
Louise arrives on Sunday night’s episode (31.07.22) with her friend Sarah as part of the ‘Meet The Parents’ instalment.
Louise tells Gemma about her dad Michael: “Honestly, he is really proud of you, really proud.
“They’re all loving watching you, they’re missing you like mad.”
Luca’s dad Michael, who arrives wearing his fish flop shoes, says of Gemma: “She puts you straight doesn’t she.”
Ekin-Su’s mum Sezer and brother Arda arrived alongside Davide’s mum Nadia and sister Valeria.
Speaking in Italian, Nadia tells Davide: “You’re doing well and you’re being yourself. Dad’s also watching and sends his regards. He doesn’t understand much of the English! In Italy everyone has been watching you.”
When Davide notes Ekin-Su is an actress, his mum says: “But I can see she is being sincere. The way she looks at you, she is head over heels.”
Fans will find out on Monday night which couple has been crowned the 2022 winners of the ITV2 show.
The couples are whittled down tonight with one pair dumped as a result of castmates voting for their “least compatible” couple.
Ekin-Su and Davide got most votes, with six, followed by Gemma and Luca on three.
It is now up to the public to decide who survives another night, and which couple will be packing their suitcases.
It’s been claimed 19-year-old Gemma is ready to quit before even making it to the final hurdle.
Lacey Edwards, who entered the villa for just a few days last week, insisted the dressage rider and Luca are “done” with the show as it reaches its climax.
In a TikTok video Lacey said: “They’ve been in there so long and they’ve really found what they’re looking for, they could happily just move out together and go back home together now.
“They’re over doing the games and challenges. With Luca, it’s playing with his head he’s like, ‘I just want my girl and I want to get out of here now’.”
‘Love Island’ airs at 9pm on ITV2 and ITV Hub. Episodes are available the following morning on BritBox. The dating reality show can be seen in Ireland on Virgin Media Two and Virgin Media Player.

Chunkz kicking off football season in epic style

OHMYGOSSIP — Chunkz is set to kick off the Premier League season in “epic” style.
The 26-year-old social media star will be heading down to Footy Scran LIVE by NOW at the Courtyard at Vinegar Yard in London Bridge on Friday (05.08.22), where he and other special guests will be offering their predictions for the season before cheering on his team Arsenal in Sky Sports’ first fixture of the season against Crystal Palace.
What’s more, Chunkz and the sports fans in attendance for the event can enjoy the crème de la crème of British footy scran – all for free, with offerings including the iconic Pizza Dog from Nottingham Forest favourite Working Man’s Kitchen, Samosas Direct’s fare, as beloved by Brentford FC fans, the Chicken and vegan Souvlaki and Gyros from Come and Go Souvlaki, which is a hit with Dulwich Hamlet FC supporters and The Rib Man, where West Ham’s crowds like to tuck into baby-back ribs.
“Football is one of my biggest passions and Premier League season is always a highlight of the year – I never miss a big game. I’m an Arsenal supporter so the fact I’m hosting the kick-off game, and it’s my team that’s playing, makes it even more epic.
Aside from the game itself, football food is one of the best things about match day – it’s what brings it all together. It’s going to be a good night and hopefully a great result.”
Tom Sibley, the creator of Footy Scran, added: “If you told me in 2021 that in less than a year, I’d be hosting a Footy Scran event with NOW to kick off the football season, I wouldn’t believe you. It’s crazy to think that sharing a photo of chips, sausages, and curry sauce in a cob has led to many heated debates on TV and online about the state of food at the footy.
I love heading along to a game with mates and grabbing some scran along the way is always a highlight – turns out I’m not the only one. Whether it’s a local game or the Premier League, food is always such a big part of match day. The best scran, footy, Chunkz – it’s mad, a pinch-me moment for sure!”
Fans who fancy being part of the scrandimonium can head to NOW Sport Twitter – @NOWSport – for their chance to win two tickets to the event, with the ballot open until 3pm on Tuesday (02.08.22).
Those who miss out on tickets to Footy Scran LIVE by NOW, can catch the new football season on streaming service NOW on the Sports Membership, starting at £11.99 for a Day Membership or £33.99 for a Month Membership or on Sky Sports.
