Elizabeth Olsen Goes Retro in Patou for 'Today' Show Appearance, Talks Forthcoming Film 'The Assessment'
Front row at the show, the Oscar-winning actress reflected on the things that bring her joy. 'Release, freedom, imagination,' she told WWD.
It's why she continues to enjoy what she does. 'That's the only reason to do it, really, because it's such an insecure job. But the fact that when you do work, you're part of a collaboration, is what interests me,' the 'Thelma and Louise' star explained.
Sarandon will begin rehearsals in August for 'Mary Page Marlowe,' a drama by Tracy Letts to be staged this autumn at the Old Vic theater in London.
'I'm totally intimidated and terrified and excited simultaneously,' she said, noting that it will be her first time on stage in the U.K., and also the first time she performs in the round.
'Your audience surrounds you. I guess the good news is you don't have to worry about blocking people, but I don't really know what that means,' she said. 'Theater in England is so intimidating, because that's where it started, and they can speak so beautifully and quickly, as opposed to Americans that just garble everything.'
For Elizabeth Olsen, a good book is key. 'My definition of joy would be being able to not overthink the present moment or what's to come,' she said. 'Reading helps me get back to the moment.'
The 'Avengers' star is deep into the fourth book of Elena Ferrante's Neapolitan novels. 'I'm a little late to the game,' Olsen confessed of her summer binge read.
Diane Kruger is enjoying traveling in Europe with her daughter Nova. 'I'm feeling a lot of joy these days,' she said.
That's despite getting caught up in a French air traffic controllers' strike on her way to Rome this week. 'It's like you live in Europe, you kind of gotta take the good with the bad, right?' she said with a shrug.
The 'Inglourious Basterds' actress will head the jury of the Angoulême Francophone Film Festival in late August, and is set to star in the eagerly awaited series 'Merteuil,' a prequel to 'Dangerous Liaisons,' alongside Anamaria Vartolomei and Lucas Bravo.
Kelly Rutherford also finds joy in togetherness. 'The first thing that comes to mind is my children and my dog, and I think the people you love,' she said.
When she has a bad day, she remembers to switch perspective. 'It's about focus and refocusing,' the actress and style icon said. 'Our minds go on an algorithm, and so it's easy to keep going down one path, but if you change it and shift it, you can start to think more joyful thoughts, because it's always available as well.'

Sienna Miller Brings Her Boho-Chic Wardrobe to Wimbledon
What with the tropical temperatures in the U.K. this week, the vast majority of the female population has been drifting through recent days in variations on summer's by now ubiquitous boho skirt. Sienna Miller, being something of an architect of modern boho style, is presumably no different. That was certainly the case at Wimbledon on Sunday, where the long-time tennis fan arrived to see Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner battle it out for the men's singles title wearing an outfit that would have fit in equally well at the new Soho Farmhouse Ibiza as at SW19. Miller, who—along with the likes of Lila Moss and Theo James—was hosted by Ralph Lauren at Wimbledon, chose a floaty, crinkle effect maxi skirt by the brand, worn with a gently cropped crochet top and white kitten-heeled sandals. And wait… is that a hint of a Glastonbury-in-the-early-Aughts coin belt we spy? Okay, not quite. But the metallic accents on her Western-inspired accessory certainly hark back to those photos of Sienna's still-influential Worthy Farm was one of a whole host of famous faces in the crowd on finals day, chief among them the Princess of Wales—a patron of the All England Tennis Club—who chose a Roksanda dress in a vibrant shade of blue to take her seat in the Royal Box, accompanied by Prince William and two of their children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte.

Jeremy Renner addresses his ex-wife's allegation that he threatened to kill her
Bullseye. In a new interview with The Guardian, Jeremy Renner spoke about how his ex-wife Sonni Pacheco claimed during their 2019 divorce proceedings that he allegedly threatened to kill her and himself. 'Whatever stress I've had in life I've tried to find a way of laughing through it,' the 'Hawkeye' star said. 'And that's where sometimes cynicism comes out — you think, 'I'm just going to have a laugh at this stuff.'' 7 Jeremy Renner during his promotion for his book 'My Next Breath' in London on June 12.

Getty Images When asked to elaborate on the 'stuff' he was referring to, Renner responded: 'Being accused of things you've not done, right? That doesn't feel good to anybody. It certainly doesn't feel good when you're a celebrity and it's known to everybody.' Renner then confirmed that he was speaking about Pacheco's allegations and insisted her claims weren't true. 'No, and they happen all the time,' he stated. 'It's all the salaciousness that happens out there. It's clickbait, and it hurts my feelings and it dehumanizes people.' 7 Jeremy Renner and Sonni Pacheco in Los Angeles in 2013. GEVA / TLNT / AKM-GSI The Oscar nominee also explained that he ignored the public's reaction when the allegations first emerged. 'It doesn't matter to me what people say,' the 'Avengers' star shared. 'They're saying it for their own reasons and not for the right reasons or the truth. And I'm used to that, because I'm a public figure. I don't read people's reviews, I don't read people's comments. I don't care. That's not part of my life.' Renner and Pacheco, 37, were married for ten months before the model filed for divorce in Dec. 2014. 7 Jeremy Renner and Sonni Pacheco.

Klay Thompson teases Megan Thee Stallion romance with PDA photos
Klay Thompson and Megan Thee Stallion are apparently making their love known on the 'gram. Days after the Grammy-winning rapper included the Dallas Mavericks star in a poolside Instagram post, Thompson, 35, shared a collection of vacation shots Saturday on the social media platform that featured him cozying up to a woman in the Bahamas. Although Thompson's lady in question had her face turned away from the camera, the bright pink nails matched those Megan, 30, rocked in her original pool shoot on July 9. 6 Klay Thompson packed on the PDA in new Instagram photos. Klay Thompson/Instagram 6 The photos were shared days after Megan Thee Stallion included the Dallas Mavericks star in a poolside post. Instagram/@theestallion Thompson added a photo of a couple holding hands to his PDA-packed carousel. Prior to her romance with Thompson, Megan was linked to Chicago Bulls forward Torrey Craig last summer. At the time, the pair participated in a TikTok couple's challenge, where they answered questions about one another by pointing at each other or themselves with their eyes shut. 6 Klay Thompson held a woman's hand in one snap, with her nails appearing to match the shade Megan sported. Klay Thompson/Instagram 6 Megan Thee Stallion rocked bright pink nails in recent bikini snaps. Instagram/@theestallion Megan shared the video before deleting it. Thompson, who was previously involved with actress Laura Harrier, is coming off his first season in Dallas after spending the first 13 years of his NBA career with the Warriors. A four-time NBA champ with Golden State, Thompson averaged 14 points, 3.4 rebounds and 2.0 assists this past season. 6 Klay Thompson (31) just wrapped his first season with the Dallas Mavericks. NBAE via Getty Images 6 The four-time NBA champion spent the first 13 years of his career with Golden State. Getty Images Thompson originally agreed to a three-year, $50 million contract with the Mavericks during free agency last July. The Mavericks, fresh off a 2024 NBA Finals run, then shook up the NBA in February when they stunningly traded star Luka Doncic to the Lakers, resulting in a turbulent fallout for the Dallas franchise. When asked in April if he still would have chosen the Mavericks, knowing what he knows now, Thompson scoffed at the 'ridiculous' question. 'You can't do that to me… That's kind of a ridiculous question,' he said. 'I don't own a time machine, and I don't believe in looking back. If I didn't have my whole career, I would not be where I'm at, and I wouldn't have been able to persevere through two really hard injuries.' The future is looking bright for the Mavericks, though, as the team selected former Duke standout Cooper Flagg with the first overall pick in last month's NBA draft.
