Cameron Diaz cast in Netflix comedy Bad Day
Cameron Diaz is to star in the Netflix movie Bad Day. The 52-year-old actress has signed up to feature in the streaming giant's project from director Jake Szymanski – who helmed the acclaimed comedy series Jury Duty. The movie centres on a single mother who is fighting to keep one small promise to her daughter on the worst day of her life. The picture has been described as a comedic version of Joel Schumacher's 1993 film Falling Down, in which Michael Douglas plays a man who reaches breaking point as he attempts to get to his daughter's birthday party. The script has been penned by Laura Solon and the movie is being produced by Beau Bauman for Good One Productions. Bad Day will shoot in New York and New Jersey later this year. Cameron returned to the big screen after an 11-year absence in the Netflix picture Back in Action earlier this year and felt it was the perfect project to come back with, as she was thrilled to work with co-star Jamie Foxx. She said: "I thought that if I was going to come back and do a movie, the only person I'd come back and do it with would be this guy. "Seriously. I had other opportunities along the way and I was always saying: 'No. I'm not doing it, I've told you ... What? Jamie asked? Jamie? Oh, I can do a movie with Jamie!'" Diaz stepped away from acting to concentrate on her family and personal life and refused to confirm that she was returning to Hollywood "for good". The There's Something About Mary star said: "I don't know how I view it. It's hard to say. If I say it then it becomes this thing. "I reserve the right to say no to doing a movie ever again, and I reserve the right to say yes if I decide to. I'm not defining anything. I'm just open to whatever makes sense for me and my family at any given moment." Cameron made her movie debut opposite Jim Carrey in the 1994 comedy The Mask and has suggested that she is open to reprising the role of Tina Carlyle in a sequel. She told Access Hollywood: "If Jim's on board, I mean, I've been riding those coattails from day one." Carrey also stated that he would be willing to make a follow-up to The Mask if provided with the right story. The 63-year-old star said: "Oh gosh, you know, it has to be the right idea. "If somebody had the right idea, I guess… It's not really about the money. I joke about the money… But I never know. You can't be definite about these things. "I said I'd like to retire, but I think I was talking more about power-resting. Because as soon as a good idea comes your way, or a group of people that you really enjoyed working with and stuff, it just — things tend to change."

Haus of Yolo successfully struts its stuff in new suburban space
The new circus show from The Dust Palace isn't just a fun night out, it's an introduction to an exciting new space in Tāmaki Makaurau, writes Sam Brooks. As a resident of the very centre of Auckland's central business district, I often forget that there are spaces beyond the view of the Sky Tower where exciting and new art is being performed. '1010' is just a postcode, not a designation of where all the cool stuff is happening. Last week's preview night of circus show Haus of Yolo, in a revamped suburban Ellerslie arts space, is a reminder of that. The concept of Haus of Yolo (stylised in all caps) is a fun one. A sparkly green jacket is passed around the cast – Eve Gordon, Lizzie Tollemache, Luis Meireilles and Jaine Mieka – possessing each in turn with a megalomaniacal fashion designer persona. Think Jim Carrey's The Mask. This jacket is intent on making a new fashion line to be featured in Vogue, and no innuendo or pantomimery will get in its way. While the concept is fun, the audience is really here for the circus. The Dust Palace has been Tāmaki Makarau's leading circus company for over a decade now, with as many shows to their name as they have years under their belt. Their brand – high-level circus framed by narrative – is a strong one, and they continue in that vein here. The narrative is a nice-to-have, the circus is the essential excellence here. The circus delivers. The company's director Eve Gordon is, as ever, spectacular. Even though I've seen them onstage many times, it's still a thrill to see them be seemingly effortlessly lifted into mid-air and spin, swish, and contort into shapes that fly in the face of what the human body should be capable of. Meireilles and Mieka were new to me, however, and Mieka's acts on the silks and with the hoops were particularly impressive, blending pure athleticism with remarkable grace and beauty. Tollemache provides the magic (and I mean that literally) of the show, with segments that punctuate the audience's questions of 'How are they doing that?' with, 'No, but seriously, how are they doing that?' One of the highlights of the show is getting introduced to a new space, Ellerslie Arts, which The Dust Palace is now the resident company-slash-owner of. The space used to be the home of the Ellerslie Theatrical Society, which wrapped up its community activities in 2023, and it mixes the feel of a community hall with a professional space. It has that classic pros' arch and a cute little bar window, but a lick of paint and professional rig elevate it. Haus of Yolo seems designed to make the most of this space. It's easily the most intimate space I've seen this kind of circus in. I'd estimate the venue seats just above a hundred people, with each of those hundred being mere metres from the performer, and the ensemble makes sure to use every inch of floor space, mingling among the audience seated underneath the proscenium arch and marching down to those seated in the proverbial (and probably literal) cheaper seats. Circus is an artform that we're traditionally told soars in massive spaces, where thousands of people can feed in their energy to the performance of one person, doing physics-defying stunts and spectacle-driven acts for us. We see it in places like Spark Arena, Civic Theatre, or Q Theatre's Rangatira space. For logistical reasons, places like Basement Theatre or BATs Theatre can't really accommodate the form. The intimacy of Ellerslie Arts highlights another part of circus, and frankly the main appeal of the artform for me, now. You can see the intense focus on each performer's face as they perform, and you can feel the ensemble giving each other energy. When Tollemache sits at the lip of the stage, jacket donned, you really feel the focus that she's giving to Gordon and Meireilles as they contort and intertwine in mid-air. Circus is high stakes enough as it is, with the performers risking injury in the same space as the audience, but being this close to the action gives it another level. The Dust Palace have cottoned on to a winner with its new space, and I'm frankly excited to see the potential of it. There is, perhaps, one game too many for the audience to follow. One of the most impressive parts of the show – the fact that the cast is speed sewing the garments that they then have to wear onstage – often gets lost despite some helpful camerawork showcasing it. It's the one downside to the intimacy of the space, that there's sometimes too much show for the space to contain it. On the whole, though, the preview night of Haus of Yolo showed me more of what the Tāmaki Makaurau performing arts needs most. As people are being priced out of the central suburbs, we need more spaces to host both them and the things they want to see. Put simply: Ellerslie Arts is one of those spaces, and Haus of Yolo is definitey one of those shows.

Jim Carrey's 30-Year Home Has Been on the Market for Over 2 Years, and It Just Got Another Price Cut
Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. Jim Carrey, known for his many famous films including the recent "Sonic the Hedgehog" trilogy, is struggling to off-load his long-time Los Angeles home. To make it even more attractive, the price was cut by another $1 million. Built in 1951 and located in the affluent Brentwood neighborhood, Carrey purchased the property in 1994, the same year he starred in "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective," "The Mask" and "Dumb and Dumber." After nearly 30 years, it was listed for sale for $28.9 million in February 2023. Don't Miss: Inspired by Uber and Airbnb – Deloitte's fastest-growing software company is transforming 7 billion smartphones into income-generating assets – Hasbro, MGM, and Skechers trust this AI marketing firm — At that time, Carrey spoke with The Wall Street Journal about selling his home, describing it as "a place of enchantment and inspiration" where he spent "30 very creative and prosperous years." The reason for putting it up for sale? "I want someone else to enjoy it like I have," Carrey says, noting that he no longer spends as much time there. The ranch-style home went through several price changes and relistings up until December, when it was pending sale for $19.75 million. The deal fell through, according to public records, and was relisted for the same price two months later. With no buyers, another price slash brought the listing down to $18.75 million as of May 2. Spanning just under 11,000 square feet, the contemporary home has five bedrooms and nine bathrooms. It features six fireplaces, brick hallways, beamed ceilings and French doors that lead out to the patio. The exterior stuns with a waterfall pool and spa, an infrared sauna, a steam room, green gardens, a tennis court, a gazebo and a pool house with a wet bar. For those who want to take advantage of the indoor-outdoor living, there's a treetop yoga and meditation platform. Trending: Maker of the $60,000 foldable home has 3 factory buildings, 600+ houses built, and big plans to solve housing — "This tranquil oasis is unlike any other in Los Angeles and must be experienced in person to be fully appreciated," says the listing held by Graham J. Larson at Sotheby's International Realty. "Set behind more than 280′ of hedged frontage and situated on more than two serene acres, this one of kind property offers endless enjoyment for all ages." One of the most show-stopping parts of the house is the Art Deco-style home theater with a concessions room, which features costumes from Carrey's movies. In tall glass cases on the walls, you'd find his Riddler costume from "Batman Forever" and the Santa Claus costume from "How the Grinch Stole Christmas." This is also where he keeps the many awards he's won over his impressive career. Sadly, these iconic pieces don't come with the sale of the house.

Jim Carrey shaves another $1M off his longtime LA home after a deal fell through
Jim Carrey is once again trimming the price of his Los Angeles estate, shaving off another $1 million and relisting the property for $18.75 million — after a prior deal collapsed. The actor first put the Brentwood compound on the market in early 2023 for nearly $29 million, as The Post reported at the time. Since then, it has undergone several price reductions before entering contract late last year. That transaction ultimately fell through, and the property returned to market in February, according to Mansion Global. 4 Jim Carrey has reduced the price of his longtime Los Angeles estate to $18.75 million, cutting another $1 million after a deal fell through. Daniel Dahler for Sotheby's International Realty 4 Carrey bought the home in 1994. Sygma via Getty Images Located along North Tigertail Canyon Road, the roughly 2-acre spread includes a modernized midcentury ranch house built in 1951. Spanning more than 10,000 square feet, the mansion features five bedrooms, a curved sunroom and an Art Deco-inspired theater. 4 The home features a yoga studio, a guesthouse and a tennis court. Daniel Dahler for Sotheby's International Realty 4 Carrey, now 63, previously said he was selling the home because he no longer spends much time there. Samir Hussein/WireImage Outdoor amenities include a pool with a waterfall, a guest house, a tennis court, and a standalone structure dedicated to yoga and meditation. Carrey, 63, acquired the home in 1994, during the peak of his rise to Hollywood stardom. He emerged as a comedy icon in the mid-1990s with blockbuster hits like 'Ace Ventura: Pet Detective,' 'Dumb and Dumber' and 'The Mask,' and later earned critical acclaim — and two Golden Globes — for his dramatic turns in 'The Truman Show' and 'Man on the Moon.'

Real estate professionals in the area say the fires contributed to a wave of insurance and financing uncertainties, with some pending sales, including Carrey's, falling apart amid the heightened risk. Carrey previously said he was letting go of the residence simply because he no longer spends much time there. His listing agent, Graham J. Larson of Sotheby's International Realty, declined to comment.
