Naomi Ackie: ‘After Whitney, I never wanted to play a real person again'
'I keep saying it's a sweet film but it is about murder,' Naomi Ackie says with a flash of mischievousness. The actress is describing her role in the keenly anticipated adaptation of Richard Osman's bestseller The Thursday Murder Club. Ackie plays Donna de Freitas, the sceptical police officer from London, and says it was 'cool' to work with her co-stars Celia Imrie and Helen Mirren: 'I grew up watching them — and they are still so enthusiastic. I never dreamt that they'd be calling me Nay.' The Thursday Murder Club will bring Ackie, 33, to a fresh audience. It's the first British comedy she has been in, although her CV is impressively varied. Since her breakthrough as the maid in Lady Macbeth with Florence Pugh in 2016, Ackie has worked with some of the starriest names in film and television — including Daisy Ridley, JJ Abrams and co in 2019's Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, Steve McQueen in his Small Axe anthology and the director Bong Joon Ho and Robert Pattinson in Mickey 17. ('If we were out and I heard a tornado of screaming fans I realised it was because Rob had got out of the car.') Her biggest role to date is Whitney Houston in the 2022 biopic I Wanna Dance with Somebody. It was this film (more on this later) that changed how she sees her career and meant that last year she made both the warm comedy The Thursday Murder Club and the more offbeat American indie film Sorry, Baby.

Watch awkward moment The Chase's Mark Labbett falls asleep AND makes huge blunder on Celebs Go Dating date
CELEBS Go Dating fans were left gobsmacked this evening as Mark Labbett made a series of blunders on his date. The Chase star - best known as The Beast - was paired with a fellow quiz lover Natalie but in toe-curling scenes the dinner went from bad to worse. 4 4 4 Struggling to stay awake, Mark could be seen yawning in the woman's face throughout and at one point even closed his eyes and appeared to be sleeping. Clearly exhausted, the 6ft 6in brainbox then picked up a tea light and tried to drink from it, believing it was his drink. When he realised, he exclaimed: 'Oh that's not a drink', leaving Natalie giggly awkwardly. He moaned after: 'That was so embarrassing. I'm trying my best for Natalie, but she's not getting the best out of me. Sorry love.' Shortly after he admitted defeat - saying he was too tired and needed to go to bed. Mark, who was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in 2017, did previously tell us that one date ended prematurely during filming after he had a hypoglycemia episode, but it is unclear if it was the same date. Hypoglycemia, also known as low blood sugar, is a condition where the glucose level in your blood drops too low. Speaking at the time, Mark said: "The hardest part of the process was the long filming and unfortunately for me I'm diabetic and I wear a glucose monitor and my glucose levels went off the scale and I had a full hypoglycemia episode and I might have got a little bit grumpy. "Afterwards I did apologise to everyone. "It overran by so much and I hadn't had my pills and the right food. EXCL The Chase's Mark Labbett reveals he was forced to quit date after shock health scare "I got it back down to normal very quickly once I had a walk and plenty of water, it went right back down. "I've realised now if I do another reality TV show, I'm going to have to build into the contract siesta breaks, I like my naps." Those watching at home couldn't believe what they were watching, with one person exclaiming: 'Never been as uncomfortable watching a date on tv as i'am watching the beasts.' A second said: 'How that woman hasn't got up and walked from the date with Mark I don't know.' 4 While a third wrote: 'The Beast's first date has me both laughing and cringing in equal measures.' Mark, who turned 60 on Friday, signed up for the dating show after his split from TV presenter Hayley Palmer, 44. Mark met Hayley after he split from his wife Katie, 31 — with whom he has a seven-year-old son — in 2020. He said: 'I'll admit, I'm not the most clued-up person when it comes to relationships. "So I listened to the experts who were very good.' he will however meet his match on the show, and has started dating 5ft 2in Deanne Perkins, 57, after they 'instantly connected'. Mark Labbett and Hayley Palmer relationship timeline May 16, 2023 - The pair went on their first date to a Toby Carvery in Southsea, Portsmouth. December 24, 2023 - The couple decided to record a podcast together after being in a relationship for several months. They planned to cover everything from Mark wooing Hayley with his Toby Carvery card to dating in the public eye, shopping trips, their big rule of not sharing chips and hilarious inside jokes. May 25, 2024 - Mark broke up with Hayley over the phone, saying he wasn't ready to finalise his divorce with his ex wife Katie.

Baby Reindeer actor Richard Gadd undergoes beefed up transformation for new role - see the Netflix star now
Richard Gadd has seriously bulked up after the smashing success of his Netflix series Baby Reindeer. The 36-year-old Scottish multihyphenate showed off his very impressive bulkier and more muscular figure in new promotional images released from his latest project Half Man. Richard has cultivated some serious mass as his arms and torso were noticeably bigger in the upcoming HBO-BBC drama. The Primetime Emmy winner was joined by costar Jamie Bell in one of the images as they created the series together. Richard revealed earlier this year that he wants the new series to be a departure from the intensely personal and autobiographical Baby Reindeer. After first joking that his next project would be a 'musical,' Richard called Half Man a 'departure from the kind of autobiographical, semi-biographical stuff that I've done before, but it's still dark. 'It still explores the contradictions of the human condition, but it feels nice not to be turning in it all the time while I'm doing it,' he explained. 'So this one I wouldn't say is a full departure. However, he suggested it was 'still probably totally what you'd expect from me,' though its 'subject matter' might surprise Baby Reindeer fans. He added that he hoped that working on something that wasn't based on his own life would 'be a healthy thing to do.' His upcoming series charts 40 tumultuous years in the lives of brothers who are now estranged. The action begins in the present, when Gadd's character Ruben crashes Bell's character Niall's wedding, setting of an exploration of their traumatic relationship from decades earlier. Speaking of a beefed up transformation, earlier this year Richard talked about the surprising actor he would like to team up with. Speaking with Daily Mail at the SAG Awards back in January, he sounded excited about the possibility of teaming up with a major wrestler-turned-film star: Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson. 'I love The Rock. I'm waiting for his call currently,' Gadd joked when asked if he'd consider working with the Jumanji star. 'No, he hasn't been in touch,' Gadd clarified, but he wouldn't mind a call, as he is a 'big wrestling fan.' Even though that fact seems to surprise people, he admitted that one of his dreams would be a 'road trip with me, The Rock, John Cena, and let's just say Bret Hart.' 'I don't know what we'll talk about, but we'll do it,' he continued. 'They'll be talking and I'll just be there... ' Richard created, wrote and plays the lead role in Baby Reindeer, his hit dark dramedy thriller that was adapted from his autobiographical one-man show. In the series, he plays a version of himself named Donny Dunn who works as a bartender and moonlights as an aspiring comedian. One of his pub customer's, Martha (fellow Indie Spirit winner Jessica Gunning), develops an unhealthy obsession with him that escalates to stalking. The series also delves into his conflicted feelings about his relationship with his girlfriend Teri, a transgender American therapist (played by Nava Mau, who won the best supporting performance honor at the Independent Spirit Awards), and an abusive collaboration with a TV writer who takes him under his wing. The series, which was released on Netflix, has been a hit with critics and fans alike. Richard went on to share his advice to other stars who may be dealing with stalkers, including Piers Morgan, who recently revealed he was dealing with a situation that seemed to be straight out of the hit series. He urged anyone tormented by similar circumstances to 'keep going' and to not let it get in their way. 'I think there's times in my life where I felt like the pressure was so intolerable,' he admitted. 'I almost didn't think there would be any sort of way out, but I think it's almost cliché, the sort of time-is-the-greatest-healer type of thing, but it really is. 'Every now and again in the darkness, there will be a crack of light, and then as the days go by, those cracks get bigger and ultimately suddenly you're standing in sunlight,' Richard continued. 'It is strange, but I never thought it would end, but I think just the belief that one day it will was enough for me,' he said on a hopeful note. 'I think, no, nothing bad sustains forever. I do believe that, and I think that the simple two words would be, "Keep going..."'
