Moore

In the last nearly 25 years, Mandy Moore has grown up in Hollywood as her fans and audiences have grown along with her. They’ve watched her rise as a pop-culture icon, from early movies like A Walk to Remember and hit singles like “Crush” to her recent success as an Emmy-nominated actor on This Is Us. A lot of pop stars and actors from her era have come and gone, but her longevity across music, TV, and film has proven that there’s only one Mandy Moore.  Most recently, Moore stars in the second season of Dr. Death,…

Mandy Moore has always had a lovely girl-next-door relatability about her, and her completely understandable reaction to working with teen heartthrob Shane West in 2002's A Walk to Remember is even more proof. The actress-singer -- who, fun fact about A Walk To Remember, turned 17 during the production of the romantic movie -- detailed working opposite her hunky, then-23-year-old, co-star during a wide-ranging interview with USA Today. She revealed that she was "madly in love" with West while making the film, saying: Oh…

From The Hours and Still Alice to The Hunger Games and Boogie Nights, Julianne Moore’s career has spanned blockbusters and romantic comedies, period dramas, low-budget horror and indie cult classics. She inhabits each role with empathy and meticulous attention to detail, and her latest, Gracie in Todd Haynes’s seductive, slippery May December, is no exception. In her 30s, Gracie scandalised America by having a sexual relationship with Joe, a 13-year-old boy. She’s served her time in jail, married Joe and raised three…

Finally, the actors' strike came to an end earlier this month, which allowed for Hollywood’s biggest stars to promote their fall movies. Julianne Moore has taken full advantage of this, as she is currently in the midst of a press cycle for her upcoming Netflix film, May December. While promoting the drama is very much a priority for the Oscar winner, Moore took a break from promoting her own work this week to shout out the summer comedy Bottoms. The cast and crew couldn’t be happier to receive Moore’s endorsement, and…

The season two of Dr. Death looks into a man who can (allegedly) make miracles. Peacock released a trailer for the second season, out Dec. 21, of the podcast-based show on Tuesday. The new storyline follows investigative journalist Benita Alexander (Mandy Moore) as she looks into Dr. Paolo Macchiarini (Edgar Ramirez), a surgeon allegedly making artificial organs to supposedly save patient lives.

Frankly, I would whisper a tiny humbug to a good deal of this gloopy Christmas movie from 1985, directed by Jeannot Szwarc and now rereleased; and only a sentimental loyalty to the seasonal spirit prevents me from demanding to know if there are no workhouses for the people who made it. The whole thing only comes to something resembling life halfway through, when Dudley Moore’s perky elf takes centre-stage.There are many other and more deserving yuletide films which should be ahead of this one in the queue for a revival,…

This is the question asked in Todd Haynes’s May December, the latest of the filmmaker’s torrid, probing melodramas. It has a plot that could come straight from a prurient TV soap opera, but Haynes – best known for films such as Far from Heaven (2002) and Carol (2015) – comes at his material with an…

Why do you enjoy putting Julianne Moore through hell? She seems nice. Seriously, though, what is it about her that has kept you returning to that working relationship for almost 30 years? penny_lane00I could speak at length about the reasons why. It was remarkable, when we found each other on my second feature film, Safe, how fully formed she was, that early in her acting career. She had such a command of the medium and understood how much the camera picks up things that may not even be perceivable when you’re shooting.…
