Jonathan Bailey says Wicked sequel is ‘darker' and will ‘go there politically'
Actor Jonathan Bailey has said the Wicked sequel is 'darker' and is 'going to go there politically as well'. The Bridgerton star, 37, plays Prince Fiyero in the films, also starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, which are adapted from the musical of the same name. 'Being slightly off the M1 in Munchkinland, with Ari singing a beautiful mezzo soprano, and then seeing cars pulling up on the hard shoulder trying to record it, and then seeing men in the sky, (which) turned out to be microlights and drones, it was like Independence Day,' he told British GQ. View this post on Instagram A post shared by British GQ (@britishgq) He added: 'I remember having four hours to learn how to do a dance move. I did it with Ari, headbutted her, and was like, 'Gotta go!'. 'I think she might have even headbutted me, but it was a meeting of minds, literally.' Wicked's next instalment will arrive in cinemas in the UK and Ireland from November 21 and will cover the years after Elphaba, played by Erivo, parted ways with her friend Glinda (Grande). Wicked: For Good will also show Elphaba being demonised by those in Oz, and transformed into The Wicked Witch Of The West. The films have been adapted from the musical, which was based on Gregory Maguire's 1995 novel – which was in turn inspired by the story first told in L Frank Baum's 1900 children's novel, later adapted into the 1939 film starring Judy Garland as Dorothy Gale. Bailey said: 'It's darker, and I've got a sense it's going to go there politically as well. 'Fiyero's arc really kicks off and he literally is transformed by the end.' Other stars of Wicked include Malaysian actress Michelle Yeoh as Madame Morrible, and US actor Jeff Goldblum as the Wizard. View this post on Instagram A post shared by British GQ (@britishgq) Both Bailey and Goldblum are part of the Jurassic Park franchise. Goldblum played Dr Ian Malcolm in the original 1993 adventure/sci-fi while Bailey stars as Dr Henry Loomis in Jurassic World: Rebirth, which is yet to be released. 'We'll see how it goes, but there might be a few films down the line where me and him can appear in Jurassic together,' Bailey said. He added: 'Dr Ian Malcolm and Dr Henry Loomis on a night out.' Bailey stars on the cover of the summer Heroes issue of British GQ and will be speaking at the GQ Heroes conference, taking place at Soho Farmhouse, Oxfordshire from July 2 to 4. The Heroes Issue of British GQ is available via digital download and on newsstands on June 10.

Chloë Sevigny on Kitty Menendez and ‘Monsters' fascination: ‘People are endlessly curious about those who have privilege and abuse it'
"People are endlessly occupied, enthralled, and curious about people who have privilege and abuse it," Chloë Sevigny tells Gold Derby about the fascination behind Netflix's Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story. Sevigny plays Kitty Menendez, who was gunned down in a double parricide alongside her husband, José Menendez (Javier Bardem), by their sons Lyle (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) and Erik (Cooper Koch) on Aug. 20, 1989. The brothers claimed years of sexual and emotional abuse at the hands of their parents before being convicted of their murders in 1996 and sentenced to life in prison. More from GoldDerby 'Wicked: For Good' trailer teases more monkeys, a wedding, and Dorothy Walton Goggins and Aimee Lou Wood: The debunked 'White Lotus' feud explained Justine Lupe on the unexpected chemistries that power Netflix's 'Nobody Wants This' "How did this unfurl? How did this happen to them? Did it really happen to them? It's kind of a mystery," Sevigny says, speaking about viewers' fascination with the story. The limited series became Netflix's most-watched program since Bridgerton in 2024. "People can take a stance. People get excited when they can have an opinion in that way." After two highly publicized trials, the Menendez brothers became infamous in the '90s, but much remained unknown about Kitty. "There were a couple books that I read that talked about her upbringing, but there wasn't a lot about her," Sevigny says about her preparation for the role. "Her father had been abusive, so that was a real key into how she behaved with José — how she allowed [the abuse] and how she self-medicated. Her mother had left her father, so she grew up without one. Maybe this is why she stood by her man — how one normalizes it and isolates — all these things that happen when one is living in a cycle of abuse." Dominick Dunne's articles in Vanity Fair gave her another perspective. "Those articles were very pro-Kitty," Sevigny reflects. "At first, I was just thinking of her as a monster. I was like, 'How am I going to access this person who doesn't have one truth?' Every episode portrays a different perspective on her. I just tried to ground her in each episode." Sevigny also touched on a subtle but taboo aspect of Kitty's story: "A lot of women feel like the children come between them and their partners. I just thought it was an opportunity to explore those kinds of feelings that you don't get to hear a lot about on television." Sevigny says Kitty was trying to save her family — she just didn't know how to. "She tries a few times to confront [José] throughout the season, in a submissive way, but she's also a product of her time. Women weren't as empowered then. What was she going to do if she left?" Playing across Javier Bardem, Sevigny found him both terrifying and brilliant as José. "It's not that hard to play scared when his anger bubbles up. He was very good at playing that." Despite his intimidating performance, Bardem was approachable on set. "He's a big movie star. He was so generous with Nicholas and Cooper — really buoying them. He helped them access things they didn't know they had in them. He's very paternal. It was a big deal for Nicholas and Cooper to have these parts — their first big roles — and Javier really helped them and elevated the whole experience." The rising fame of Chavez and Koch doesn't surprise Sevigny. "I knew the media would be attracted to them," she says, referencing Koch's openness about his sexuality and his relationship with the real Menendez brothers. "A lot of young stars navigating press and media are a little tentative to speak out because you can get in trouble quite easily. They aren't afraid of that, and I think it's refreshing." The Oscar-nominated actress describes shooting the murder scene — which took two days of rehearsal and two days of filming — as emotionally and physically taxing. "You don't normally shoot a scene in that kind of way," she explains. "There's different versions of it. It took a toll on me, physically. And the noise — because they're shooting blanks — and the smell of it. At the end of the first day I was wrecked — really shaken up. But then, you become numb to it, which is more disturbing in a way." Beyond her work in Monsters, Sevigny discusses her longstanding creative relationship with Ryan Murphy, reflects on the 30th anniversary of her acting debut in Kids, and her upcoming projects. She is set to star in Luca Guadagnino's next film, After the Hunt, marking her third collaboration with the director. "I think that movie is going to be really good and a little controversial — which just keeps happening to me!" she says with a laugh. "People just cast me and think, 'Oh, she's that person!' But it stars Julia Roberts, so it can't be that controversial." Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story is streaming on Netflix.

Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors After a long day's work, it's hard to muster the energy to do anything other than heat up some food and binge your favorite Netflix shows like "Bridgerton" or "Stranger Things." But what if you could get paid just to watch Netflix? More Entertainment: Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein – Everything We Know, Trailer, Release Date Flick Offers claims just that. According to the website, people can sit at home and watch and review Netflix content while making $36 per hour on your own schedule with "no talking required." The job has since gone viral on TikTok, with multiple users claiming that they are now living the couch potato dream. But is this actually a dream job or just a scam trying to take advantage of the masses? Let's dive deeper.

Above is a stock image of the Netflix logo is displayed on the screen of an Apple MacBook Pro on November 20, 2019 in Paris, France. The streaming giant has revealed the incoming and outgoing shows and films for its August 2023 Flick Offers Netflix Review Job Site a Scam? Let's cut to the chase: is Flick Offers real or just a scam? To put it bluntly, this site and other sites like it are some of the biggest scams online right now. According to Scam-Detector, Flick Offers has a score of 6.9 out of 100, meaning it is one of the least trustworthy sites possible. To make matters worse, Scam-Detector states that there are massive risk factors related to phishing, malware, and spam if you were to click any of the links on their web page. Additionally, it appears that the site is not affiliated with Netflix in any way, despite slapping a big red "N" on their front page. This is a massive red flag when considering the legitimacy of any website like this. The fact of the matter is, if a company were going to pay you to review their content, they wouldn't do it through a website that isn't affiliated with them. How to Actually Get Paid to Watch Netflix So it appears that Flick Offers and sites like it are a massive scam. Is there a way to actually get paid to watch Netflix? Actually, there is! More Entertainment: Netflix Releases Mysterious Trailer For Next 'Knives Out' Film Known as a Netflix tagger, these individuals are paid to watch, analyze, and categorize content. According to taggers make about $54,000 per year, or about $25 per hour. This is far off from the promised $36 per hour promised by Flick Offers. What Jobs is Netflix Hiring For? If you are looking to get a job with Netflix, your best bet would be to do it through their actual jobs website. While it doesn't seem that any tagger jobs are open at the moment, there are well over 500 open positions at the time of writing that are waiting to be filled. However, if you are looking for a quick way to make a ton of money just for binging your favorite series, it is best to look elsewhere.
