Daniel Radcliffe’s getting real about child stardom, saying therapy for young actors shouldn’t just be encouraged, it should be mandatory ... and there's a heartbreaking reason why he believes that.

The 'Harry Potter' star says he knows he got lucky starting out so young, but he remembers one child actor in particular who later took his own life, believing he had no right to complain because the world thought he had it all ... fame, money, and success.

Speaking on Bustle’s "One Nightstand With Daniel Radcliffe," he said that illusion -- that child actors are living the dream -- can be crushing behind the scenes, which is exactly why therapy should be built into the system.

Macaulay Culkin and Brenda Song are turning the page -- the couple just dropped a cool $10.3 million on a new home in the L.A. area, TMZ has learned.

Jenna Dewan is a huge fan of opera and ballet, but she's coming to Timothée Chalamet's defense after his seemingly disparaging comments about the creative genres.

Timothée Chalamet’s opera and ballet hot take didn’t just leap onto the stage out of nowhere ... it turns out he’s been trying to make this pointe for years, as a resurfaced clip shows.

It’s a short clip, so the full context isn’t crystal clear ... but it looks like TC was reflecting on his career path when he casually slipped in the comment -- and seven years later, he’s basically doubled down, sparking fresh backlash.

Kevin Costner's used to dancing with wolves, but on Friday night he was chatting with a stone-cold fox ... leaning in for a convo with Brooks Nader.

Eyewitnesses tell TMZ ... Costner and Nader were spotted chatting it up at dinner and hanging out in the high roller room of Zero Bond, where attendees played their choice of roulette, blackjack or poker.

Timothée Chalamet is getting heat for some ugly remarks he made about the opera & ballet industry -- and he's even pissed off perhaps the most famous opera house in the world!

The Metropolitan Opera in NYC on Friday shared a TikTok video showing hardworking crew members inside the famed opera house -- everyone from costumers to composers, set designers, stagehands, musicians, and more.

Ryan Reynolds is about to call his first professional soccer game with pal and team co-owner Rob McElhenney ... and the pressure's off because they ain't Tom Brady or the Manning Bros., who are expected to be experts behind the mic.

Here's the deal ... the UK's Sky Sports announced today the duo would be color commentators for the upcoming match between their club, Wrexham A.F.C., who are playing Swansea City A.F.C. in the English Football League Championship next week.

A source close to RR tells TMZ … Unlike NFL legends Brady and the Mannings, there’s no expectation of excellence in broadcasting, no matter the sport … so Ryan and Rob get to have fun -- and they're sure as hell going to.

Dennis Hopper’s family is locked in an intense legal battle … with the late actor’s daughter claiming his widow interfered with a binding deal to manage the Dennis' image rights and legacy.

According to the lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, Hayward Luxury -- a luxury goods brand founded by Hopper’s daughter Marin Hopper -- claims Victoria Duffy Hopper worked behind the scenes to derail a signed contract that gave Hayward the right to control Dennis Hopper's various trademarks and rights of publicity.

The suit says after Dennis Hopper died in May 2010, the Hopper Art Trust was created to promote and manage his artwork -- including photographs, paintings, and sculptures -- along with his intellectual property.

Hayward says it struck a deal in 2018 with the trust to purchase certain intellectual property rights tied to Hopper, claiming Hayward paid around $800,000 in the first few years of the agreement to invest in the rights it had purchased.
