As the 2024 United States presidential election is lurking around the corner, both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris have proposed new tax plans as a part of their election campaign. Both the proposals raised an intense debate among the netizens. However, Joseph Gordon-Levitt found himself embroiled in it when he posted a controversial video criticizing Donald Trump’s proposal.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt is one of the most prominent Hollywood stars with films like 500 Days of Summer, The Dark Knight Rises, and Inception under his collar. Soon after the candidates revealed their new plans for the taxpayers, the 43-year-old posted a video on his X account where he openly called out the Republican candidate’s plan for allegedly benefitting only the top class.

It’s easy to forget a time, not so long ago, when Joseph Gordon-Levitt seemed like one of the brightest rising stars in Hollywood. A slew of acclaimed supporting roles in Christopher Nolan movies ranging from the “Dark Knight” trilogy to “Inception” made it seem like the former child star was destined to dominate the next few decades of moviemaking with a halo that rivaled Nolan’s. But it never quite materialized that way, as Gordon-Levitt spent the late 2010s and early 2020s lying low and popping up in forgettable cameos that seemed more interested in cashing in on his celebrity status than expanding it.
It’s forgivable to have wondered, in recent years, whether his talent was overstated in the first place —but a quick viewing of Potsy Ponciroli’s “Greedy People” should quickly rectify that. Gordon-Levitt’s electrifying buffoonery is an easy highlight of the ensemble crime comedy.

One of the best things about the mind-bending world of Christopher Nolan is that his films can always guarantee a joyride through time and space. The uniquely strange imagination of the filmmaker has given us masterpieces like Inception, Interstellar, and Tenet. But all of it originally began with Memento.
Memento [Credit: Lionsgate/Summit Entertainment]
Conceived during a car ride with his equally talented brother, Jonathan Nolan, the story for Memento was devised by the younger of the duo and then translated into a screenplay for a film. In 1999, Christopher Nolan directed Guy Pearce, Carrie-Anne Moss, and Joe Pantoliano in the leading roles. The movie, which came out a year later, forever altered our brain chemistry.

Christopher Nolan is a legend in every definition of the word. He has produced more masterpieces in a decade than many do in their entire careers, proving to the world just how talented and skilled he is as a filmmaker. Not only has he been an inspiration for many, but he has also gained a huge following of dedicated fans who watch every story that he wants to tell.

Considering just how much profit he brings to the table, it is safe to say that releasing one of his films is a great opportunity for a studio. Since the early years of his career, Nolan had been tied to the hip with Warner Bros., releasing some of his biggest projects to date with their help and bringing them billions in profits.

Watching Christopher Nolan’s Inception undoubtedly left viewers at the edge of their seats and mind-blown at the same time, with thoughts of how brilliant he wrote the script and directed the film. As a fan, one would believe there’s no other movie in the world that can match its cleverness.

But wait – we’re forgetting something from the past. Remember Dennis Quaid’s 1984 dark science-fiction adventure film Dreamscape helmed by Joseph Ruben? It’s definitely cut and woven from the same fabric as Inception, or is it the other way around?
Dennis Quaid’s Dreamscape Dared To Push The Limits Of The Imagination
In celebration of its 40th anniversary, Joseph Ruben’s Dreamscape starring Dennis Quaid is the type of film that most audiences would call ambitious. Its storyline is quite complicated for the unassuming minds, but it was genius and creative nonetheless.

From facial wars to a penguin friend, wandering surfers and Haitian immigrants in Miami, the independent film market is fun, thoughtful, varied and contending with a faster cadence of high performing studio wide releases. That’s exhilarating on one hand but, indie distribution executives say, is making it increasingly difficult to date their films after having a pretty clear field for the first half of 2024.

The Dog Days of summer—vaguely from mid-July through mid-August, depending on who does the counting—may not seem like much of an Oscar crucible. You’d think most Academy voters would be sipping Margaritas in Malibu, or Limoncello Martinis somewhere on the Mediterranean.
But as often as not in the last fifteen years, the Dog Day bracket has produced a Best Picture nominee. And last year, of course, it brought a winner in Oppenheimer, which was released alongside fellow Best Picture nominee Barbie on July 21, and was still going gangbusters in mid-August.
There’s a certain rough charm to the Dog Day nominees. They tend to be audience favorites, movies that connect with the movie-hungry middle, which powers them into the Oscar race, whatever the somewhat fussier film professionals may think.

Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight had a score that was addictive as well as haunting for fans. The Joker theme stood out in the film and the legendary Hans Zimmer was predominantly behind the score. Zimmer worked alongside James Newton Howard in the film but their work in the film was mostly split. While Zimmer worked on the Joker theme, Howard was tasked with the score for Harvey Dent’s arc.

Nolan was presented with a plethora of options because Zimmer was on a quest to come up with a score that defined the psychopathic character. Some of the most soulful musical renditions in cinema were born out of the collaboration between the duo of Nolan and Zimmer, working together on six films.

Netflix’ Paris Theater, NYC’s longest-running arthouse and Manhattan’s sole single-screen cinema, is marking one year since reopening with the return of screening series Big & Loud.
Special presentations include a new 70mm print of Alfred Hitchock’s Vertigo screening for the first time in New York, new 70mm prints of North By Northwest and The Searchers, as well as 70mm screenings of 2001: A Space Odyssey, Boogie Nights, Hamlet (1996), Inception, Lawrence of Arabia, Malcolm X, Nope, Phantom Thread, Spartacus and The Untouchables.
Netflix reopened the historic theater last year following upgrades to present 70mm projection and make it the largest Atmos cinema in Manhattan. It called Big & Loud “a screening series of eye-popping 70mm prints, thunderous Dolby Atmos and cinema worth celebrating.”
Highlights include Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Days of Heaven, Dazed And Confused, East of Eden (in Atmos), Gravity (in Atmos), The Green Fog (double bill with Vertigo), Koyaanisqatsi,...

Christopher Nolan’s “Interstellar” will be re-released in honor of its 10th anniversary. However, the sci-fi epic is flying back to theaters slightly behind schedule.
The Paramount Pictures film was slated to return on Sept. 27 but will instead land roughly two months later on Dec. 6. It will be shown in 70mm Imax prints, as well as digital screens. The theatrical release date was pushed to align with the home entertainment relaunch, according to knowledgable individuals. Warner Bros. Pictures, which co-produced the movie, is working with Paramount on the revival.
Studio sources dispute a rumor that 70mm prints of “Interstellar” were destroyed; Paramount claims it has archived more copies of the movie than most other pictures. However, because reels of film experience wear and tear while playing on the big screen, it’s not uncommon for them to be unusable after their theatrical runs.

Leonardo DiCaprio is one of the most recognized stars in the world after he starred in multiple blockbusters such as Titanic, The Wolf of Wall Street, and Inception. The actor is the recipient of the Oscar for Best Actor, which he received in 2016 after multiple snubs, and is often regarded as one of the best actors of the generation.
Recently, a lookalike of the actor went viral on social media due to his uncanny resemblance to the Once Upon a Time in Hollywood actor. The video can be seen in the Russian model Anastasyia Queen’s Instagram which sees the actor in a look that he sported in films like Inception and Shutter Island.

Elizabeth Olsen has charmed audiences not just with her surname but with her own resplendent performances in Tinseltown. Far from riding on her sisters’ coattails, she is a tour de force in her own right, capturing hearts as Wanda Maximoff, aka Scarlet Witch, in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But did you know her acting journey was also seasoned with indie gems like Martha Marcy May Marlene and Silent House before she stormed the big screen, reacting to the awe-inspiring CGI behemoth in Godzilla?

Image Source: Amazon Long before Oppenheimer or Inception or even the Dark Knight trilogy, Christopher Nolan was a filmmaker defined by his quirky screenplays and exacting standards as a director. To the people he worked with early on, though, they could see the seeds of a spectacular career being planted. Guy Pearce starred in Nolan’s second film, 2000’s Memento, and he told us he has wonderful memories of making the movie, from the first time he read the script to the point where he saw the final product on the big screen.

The Oscar for Best Visual Effects is particularly tough to predict because of the complicated system by which the nominees are determined in three stages. The members of the executive committee of the branch cast preferential ballots to determine 20 films for further consideration. These are then winnowed down to 10 semi-finalists, which will be announced on December 17, 2024. (Scroll down for the most up-to-date 2025 Oscars Best Visual Effects predictions.)
All members of the branch are invited to a virtual screening of excerpts from these 10 films in January at which potential nominees may discuss their work. Ballots are counted using a system of re-weighted range voting to determine the five nominees, which will be revealed on January 17. The entire voting membership of the academy will then vote for the winners, which will be revealed during the 97th Academy Awards ceremony on March 2.

A year ago, Christopher Nolan’s biopic on the father of the atomic bomb opened in cinemas to a thunderous response. Like his previous films, Oppenheimer was one of the most anticipated movies of the year, partly due to its releasing partner Barbie, sparking the phenomenal Barbenheimer meme.
While Barbie may have earned the big billion at the box office, Nolan’s three-hour epic on the horrors of nuclear war was not far behind in box office returns, and it also won big at the Oscars. One scene in particular, Nolan mentioned, captured the attention of the viewers so much that he was spellbound when he walked into the theater secretly.

Christopher Nolan is known to make films that tell larger-than-life stories and often transcend the realms of reality. His films are made for the perfect theatre experience that will have your heart beating through your chest. However, with his 2017 historical war thriller, Dunkirk, Christopher Nolan decided to take a more grounded route and retell the story of the Dunkirk evacuation of World War II with a little bit of dramatization.

Dunkirk is considered to be one of Hollywood’s best war films to date and was crafted to absolute perfection. However, there was a time when Christopher Nolan basically wanted to wing it all. Thanks to his extensive research and attention to detail, the filmmaker was convinced that he could make the film from start to finish without a script. Thankfully, his wife was right there to stop him.

You’ve seen Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s face on your screen since he was a little kid. But more than twenty years later, he seemed to drop off the map. So what happened?
The Only Healthy Child Star
After working hard in Hollywood since the early 90s, Joseph Gordon-Levitt landed the coveted role of Bruce Wayne’s young sidekick John Blake (surprise – he goes by Robin!) in The Dark Knight Returns.
But shortly after this huge coup, the actor took a step out of the spotlight. Unlike most former child stars, this wasn’t because of an arrest, drug bust, mental breakdown, or rehab stint. Instead, the actor took a well-deserved break.
From 2018 to 2020 Jgl mostly stayed at home with his wife and two kids, prioritizing being a dad over making movies. The couple has steadfastly refused to release the names of their children, preferring to keep their private lives private.

Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio have long been major fan favorites, especially as lovers onscreen. This is because of the outstanding chemistry the duo has successfully displayed all along, resulting in some of the most critically acclaimed masterpieces of all time. However, the pair didn’t exactly say yes to starring opposite each other the entire time.

Well, Winslet for one most certainly didn’t, and ended up turning down one too many roles that asked her to be the onscreen lover of DiCaprio. The same was the case for Inception as well, which is, unarguably, one of DiCaprio’s highest-grossing movies. As it turns out, the actress was asked to play the actor’s lover once again, but her response was a big no.

Tom Hardy has established himself among the A-listers, all due to his impeccable acting prowess, which is seen in several of his projects. After making his debut with Black Hawk Down (2001), he garnered widespread acclaim with Christopher Nolan’s Inception.
Given that the movie was a critical and commercial success, it also marked his transition from an emerging talent to a mainstream star.

Industry heavyweights Atticus Ross (“Shogun”), Michael Minkler (“Masters of the Air”) and Robert Elswit (“Ripley”) were among those who led the Creative Art Emmy nominations on Wednesday morning.
FX’s “Shogun” dominated the Emmy nominations Wednesday morning, landing 25 nods. The drama series based on James Clavell’s epic novel landed musician and composer Ross a nomination for music composition for a series while costume designer Carlos Rosario was also nominated.
Speaking with Variety, Rosario explained how he created over 2300 designs for the series set in feudal Japan.
Elswit, who reunited with directed Steven Zaillian for Netflix’s “Ripley,” earned his first Primetime Emmy nod. The Oscar winning Dp (“There Will Be Blood”) sat down for Variety’s Inside the Frame series and explained how he wanted to get inside Tom Ripley’s (Andrew Scott) mind and give the series a painterly effect.

At six of the last 11 Oscars, Best Cinematography has gone hand-in-hand with Best Director: Emmanuel Lubezki and Alfonso Cuaron for “Gravity” (2014); Lubezki and Alejandro G. Inarritu for both “Birdman” (2015) and “The Revenant” (2016); Linus Sandgren and Damien Chazelle for “La La Land” (2017); Cuaron doing double duty on “Roma” (2019) and Hoyte van Hoytema and Christopher Nolan for “Oppenheimer” (2024). Will that trend hold true this year? (Scroll down for the most up-to-date 2025 Oscar predictions for Best Cinematography.)
The academy usually regards award-winning cinematography as pretty pictures within an epic technical feat of filmmaking. While great lighting and framing are laudable on their own, having a movie that looks like it was difficult to shoot goes a long way to snagging an Oscar. Recent lensing winners “Avatar” (2009), “Inception” (2010), “Hugo” (2011), “Life of Pi” (2012), “Gravity” (2013), “Blade Runner 2049” (2018) and “1917” (2020) also took home the Oscar for Best Visual Effects.

Greenwich Entertainment releases writer-director Dominic Savage’s movie in theaters Aug. 16 following its premiere at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival. Page stars as Sam, a trans man who returns home for a family reunion and reconnects with an old friend.

At one point in the footage, Sam’s mom (played by Wendy Crewson) admits, “I just still think of you as my little girl.”
Savage wrote and directed the film, with Page credited for his work on the story. Savage, Page, Daniel Bekerman, Krishnendu Majumdar, Richard Yee and Chris Yurkovich serve as producers.

France’s Deauville American Film Festival has announced a retrospective gathering 50 U.S. features that have challenged perceptions of the world to mark its 50th anniversary.
The selection ranges from D. W. Griffith’s 1916 silent epic Intolerance to Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, and also includes Ida Lupino’s groundbreaking 1950 rape drama Outrage as well as Spike Lee’s Do The Right Thing. (see full list below)
“Cinema has always made us dream, travel, desire, fantasize, laugh, cry. But how many films have been able to shake up our certainties, question our beliefs, question our prejudices and put our own views into perspective?,” said the festival.
“The Deauville American Film Festival wanted to highlight a selection of 50 films that have changed the way we look at the world,” it continued.

After movies like The Fall Guy and Furiosa made their home debuts mere weeks after their theatrical premieres, Jeff Nichols’ period drama The Bikeriders joins the pack as it revs up to hit digital outlets tomorrow. The film garnered much praise from critics, including our own Chris Bumbray, who said in his review, “This is the rare film where I almost hope there’s a more extended version, as I found some of the side characters fascinating and worth further development. […] It’s rare I look at my watch during a movie hoping there’s more or it left, but that’s what happened to me here quite a bit, so take that as high praise.”
The press release from Universal reads,
“Loyalty, power, and brotherhood collide in Focus Features’ ‘must-see summer movie’ (USA Today) that critics are calling ‘Goodfellas on Harley-Davidsons’ (Indiewire). The Bikeriders is available for the first...

Tom Hardy is known for his transformative roles and incredible performances in films. He has performed to perfection in films such as Inception, Dunkirk, Legend, and Bronson, and has also starred in blockbusters such as Venom. He was last seen in The Bikeriders.
Despite phenomenal performances, Hardy has only received an Oscar nomination once for The Revenant as a supporting actor. The actor was reportedly convinced by co-star Leonardo DiCaprio to give the script a read after which Hardy agreed to join the film.

23 years into his film career, Tom Hardy is still impossible to pin down. Is he a leading man? A full-on movie star? A character actor? Would he be perfectly happy to just make Venom movies until he retires?
Here's what we do know about Hardy: he's handsome, he loves trying on weird accents (which we ranked here at /Film), and he commits fully to every role whether it's a prestige picture or a superhero flick. Critics dig him (even if they do not dig the "Venom" movies at all), and he's tremendously respected by his fellow actors. He's one of the best we've got. But it's been 16 years since his breakthrough bravura performance in Nicolas Winding Refn's "Bronson," and, for whatever reason, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' membership has only managed to nominate him for one measly Oscar.
What gives?

Christopher Nolan Ripped HBO Max As the “Worst Streaming Service” ( Photo Credit – Instagram )
Christopher Nolan’s disdain for streaming platforms has been well-documented in the media. Last year, the “Oppenheimer” filmmaker made headlines when he took a jab at streaming platforms while discussing the upcoming home release of The Atomic Bomb Drama. Christopher Nolan urged his fans to buy the Universal Studio film on Blu-ray so that “no evil streaming service can steal it from you.”
This was not the first time Nolan expressed his disdain for streaming services. In 2020, Christopher Nolan, who has a long relationship with Warner Bros, harshly criticized the studio after it unleashed a plan to release all its movies on the HBO Max streaming service.

Being recognized as the titan of the cinema industry, Christopher Nolan made his name known all around the world with his sci-fi masterpieces Inception (2010), Interstellar (2014) and, undoubtedly, with his epic box office killer Oppenheimer (2023).
After the director stepped into mainstream cinema with Batman Begins (2005), he made a thriller that still blows every cinephil’s mind. Even though it was released 18 years ago, it not only holds up today, but is considered to be the trickiest movie ever made.
Set in the 1890s, this 2016 film starts by introducing us to Alfred and Rupert, rival magicians who try to conquer London’s stage, as they’re both striving to create a perfect teleportation illusion. Their battle for supremacy goes too far, as they’re going not only to outperform, but to eventually destroy each other.
The tricks, rivalry and mystery are constantly engaging here, even though this thriller is rich in Nolan...

Star Wars stands as one of the most iconic franchises in history. Whether you’re a fan or not, its influence is undeniable, propelling some actors to stardom while turning veterans, who sometimes hesitated at first, into beloved icons synonymous with their Star Wars roles today.
However, there are celebrities whose brief appearances in the franchise may have gone unnoticed. Some were recognizable from the start, while others remained hidden until their roles were revealed later on.
This article highlights the 10 significant celebrity cameos in the Star Wars franchise, many of which you likely missed during your viewings of the movies or TV series. Fiction Horizon is here to uncover these hidden gems for you! (Note: This list is not in any particular order.)

Star Wars is undoubtedly one of the most important franchises of all time. Whether you’re a fan or not, you’ve definitely heard of the franchise and know some names from it. The franchise also made some of the actors who appeared in it into proper stars, while veterans who, sometimes reluctantly even, appeared in the franchise ended up being its best assets and are, today, best-known for their Star Wars roles.
But, there are those whose appearances we are not aware of, but who also had a role in the franchise, generally in the form of a cameo appearance. Some of them we managed to recognize, while others remained unknown until it was revealed that they actually appeared in the film.

Dneg, the London-headquartered visual effects and animation house that has won Oscars for the likes of Denis Villeneuve’s Dune and Netflix’s Stranger Things, said Tuesday it secured a $200 million investment from the Abu Dhabi-based United Al Saqar Group.
Dneg is also the preferred visual effects creator for Christopher Nolan on movies like Inception, Interstellar and Tenet. The visual effects and animation company will use the cash injection to accelerate artificial intelligence-driven content creation at Brahma, Dneg’s newly-launched technology division.
The new funds will also go towards bolstering other divisions like the content arm Prime Focus Studios, acquired in 2023 and a provider of cloud-based software and AI technology for the media industry, including major studios and streamers, and creating a visual experience hub in Abu Dhabi.

Daniel Craig left some rather large shoes to fill after he exited as James Bond with his final Bond film “No Time to Die” in 2021. Three years on and we are seemingly no closer to finding out who the new 007 is than we were right after that movie. But… the debate around who we think should be the next Bond rages on, with every film fan having their own thoughts on who would be best suited for the role.
Craig himself was a stark departure from the ultra-suave Pierce Brosnan before him, with Craig bringing more grit, brutality, and gruff vulnerability to the role. Will producer Barbara Broccoli go for the same type as Craig, will they revert back to the smoothness of a Brosnan-type, or will they go for something different entirely? Well, here’s an extensive list of 30 actors who could theoretically take up the mantle of 007 next.

The very first thing that supervising sound editor/re-recording mixer Lee Salevan designed for Michael Sarnoski’s “A Quiet Place: Day One” was the opening title card high above the New York City skyline informing us that 90 decibels are the equivalent of “the sound of a constant scream.”
That became the baseline for the chaotic sounds that accompany the alien invasion of Manhattan in this prequel to John Krasinski’s blockbuster horror franchise. Sarnoski’s (“Pig”) conceit was simple: Sam (Lupita Nyong’o) is determined to grab the last slice of pizza in the city, joined by her adorable cat and Eric (Joseph Quinn), a shell-shocked law student from Kent.
“I absolutely adore the city,” Salevan, who lives in Brooklyn, told IndieWire. “And so it was super fun to destroy it at the same time we’re trying to make a love letter. And there are a lot of times that...

“Inside Out 2” roared into cinema in June, becoming Pixar’s highest-grossing film in a debut weekend of all time, while its current worldwide haul at this time of writing stands at just over one billion.
The first movie — one of the most ingenious films of this century — took audiences inside the head of young Riley as she navigated a move to a new city while her emotions tried to guide her through the move in her head. This second film brings back those emotions as Riley goes through her teenage years. But Joy and Sadness and the gang have to deal with several new emotions in headquarters, including Anxiety, Embarrassment, and Ennui.
But while the film marches towards $1 billion at the box office, could it also be marching towards awards glory? Well, animated flicks don’t get the justice they deserve when it comes to the Academy Awards. So often,...

Ranker is a popular place on the Internet where people can rank whatever they want, however, they want, and whenever they want. This is always a fan-focused ranking system, and it is never officially tied to the people behind the projects in question. Recently, a large survey was organized on Ranker, whose goal was to determine the best actors of all time. The list includes more than 500 names, but in our report, we have decided to list the top ten actors from the site to provide you with better insight, combined with our original comments and opinions, which will add flavor to the whole report.
Of course, since this is indeed an important list, we have decided to report on it, so we are going to bring you the results by listing the top 10 actors on this list, from 10th to first place. We hope you’ll enjoy it!
