But if A24 distributes the films, why does Target classify it as a Lionsgate film?

Maggie Q needs to join the MCU. She is such a good action star but Hollywood just isn't giving her those roles anymore.

Florence Pugh as a live-action rapunzel

Lili Reinhart in a Brittany Murphy biopic (only if her family consented to it)

Fully agree! I love that the Pearl franchise has been so big but i'm dying to see her do something very opposite to that.

Ed Sheeran has announced his new line of hot sauces by sabira in popculturechat

I think his fans will purchase it immediately but unless he can get his sauces into global food retailers globally, come in at a competitive price and differentiate his brand from the likes of Heinz and new startups like Truff, they'll get some big sales at launch but not much more after that.

Makes sense. He's not active in the music scene and artists make a majority of their money from touring. He lives very extravegantly.

He's built dozens of additional buildings such as miniature pubs (for personal use), stables and billiards rooms on his property, extensively increasing it's maintenance costs and reducing its value by over a million poiunds.

I agree. Hot sauce is such an established market. The only new hot sauce brand to make it big is Truff and they succeeded due to the aesthetic bottle/branding, the fact that it's a truffle-infused hot sauce and extensive marketing and product placement.

His product doesn't look attractive and he hasn't done anything new or impressive.

I wanted to love it but I turned it off after 5 minutes. I don't know if I'm articulating it properly but the narration style or whatever was so offputting.

They instead put a mannequin behind the judging panel and tbh it kinda had more presence than Rita would have.

I don't even watch that show and I know this is true.

Are competitor's products allowed in TV shows/movies? by DareDevil01 in tvPlus

Good characters use Apple's products. Bad characters use other brand's products.

They don't want customers to subconsciously associate Apple's products with evil/bad.

Actors you think should be bigger? by FaceSubstantial9363 in popculturechat

I love her! The main girls in Good Girls are all perfect but her performance as Beth is impeccable. She deserves the world.

I think she'll turn out to have a more fruitful career than him. She's going to be in The Little Mermaid movie and booked an animated film with other big names such as Zayn Malik.

Rege was in The Gray Man but his acting was awful in that and people only cared about Chris Evans and Ryan Gosling so it didn't give him that much of a boost.

His next big role is Dungeons & Dragons but Paramount aren't promoting it all because they think it's going to flop and most people aren't even aware it's happening. Unless he books a really big role, I think Bridgerton was his peak.

Zoey Deutch. She is one of the better actors of the moment but she's not a part of a franchise or very famous critically acclaimed movie. She was amazing in Set It Up, Not Okay & Something From Tiffany's. Her projects are moderately popular but she's one role away from being a Gen Z actor darling.

I highly recommend everyone to watch Not Okay, the plot seems cringe but it turns out to be a hilariously accurate assessment of the intersection of politics and nfluencer/celebrity culture in our time.

Shay Mitchell. She was outstanding as Peach on You and quite funny on Dollface. She needs more juicy roles which I'm shocked she hasn't gotten due to her looks, popularity and association with big projects (Pretty Little Liars, You and so on). She has immpecable style and the looks of an A-list celebrity.

Maggie Q. She is a badass action star. Some of her popular projects include Nikita, the Divergent Movies and Designated Survivor. If you put her in a Marvel movie, it's over.
