Harrison Ford Awkward in Cannes Can't Sit with Wife Calista at 'Indiana Jones' Premiere
Harrison Ford was supposed to be the center of attention at Cannes today, but it's the folks in charge of festival logistics that are getting side-eye after giving his wife, Calista Flockhart, a seat BEHIND the actor at his big premiere.
The veteran actor and his actress wife arrived hand in hand Thursday to thunderous applause at the world premiere of the highly-anticipated “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny."
You can see the two scanning the seating assignments, and Calista notices she's been seated behind her hubby -- mentioning something to him behind a smile. Ford notices the awkward arrangement as well -- appearing to give an "Oh" as Calista stands by his side.
All the folks around them seem to be caught up in their applause, but it's a super cringe moment, to say the least. Unclear who is responsible or what might have led to the mix-up, but it's pretty strange to have the two sit separately ... especially on Ford's big night.
The power couple has been together since 2002, and they tied the knot in 2010 so it's not like this is a new fling.
As for the movie, it's been deemed the most popular in all of this year's Cannes Fest ... so seated next to each other or not, Ford's certain to get a ton of reviews.

Will Smith to Martin Lawrence Don't Jump!!! Daring 'Bad Boys 4' Scene
Will Smith and Martin Lawrence are back in action ... and we have the first images of the famous duo filming together for their upcoming 'Bad Boys' flick.
The actors were spotted Wednesday in Atlanta shooting a scene for "Bad Boys 4" ... and, the guys are fully in character -- Will as Det. Mike Lowrey and Martin as Marcus Miles Burnett.
As you can see, they were right in the thick of all the action ... it appears Will's character was talking Martin off an 8-story ledge, as he stood near the edge wearing a hospital gown.
You'll recall we saw Will on set of the new film, last month, but this is the first time we've seen him and Martin together in front of the cameras.
Will's fully back into the swing of his movie career since he infamously slapped Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars. While Smith is banned from attending the award show for 10 years ... it's not impacting his appeal as an A-list draw for Hollywood blockbusters.
This will be the 4th installment of their 'Bad Boys' franchise, which started way back in '95.
Yeah, Lowrey and Burnett might be getting a little long in the tooth, but audiences are still showing up to see 'em. "Bad Boys 4" will drop next year.

Salma Hayek Keeping Abreast of the Times!!!
Salma Hayek gave her millions of Instagram fans more than eyeful Tuesday, accidentally exposing her breasts as she danced her butt off.
The actress posted a video to IG, showing her partying with her peeps inside a room after scoring 24 million followers on the social media platform. As Salma was boogying, she didn't notice the top of her robe was open, putting on a show she hadn't bargained for.
But her wardrobe malfunction didn't stop the party. Salma just kept shimmying and having a blast with friends.
She wrote on IG, "24 million followers, 24 million reasons to smile 😄 Thank you all for joining me on this wild ride! ❤️🙏 I cannot contain my excitement & gratitude 💃"
This isn't the first time Salma has given us a little peep show. Last month, she was photographed wearing a yellow bikini on a boat while puffing out her chest.
But Salma's probably not getting many complaints, especially from the guys.

Johnny Depp Whole Lotta Love from Cannes Fans
There's no love lost between Johnny Depp and his international fans, who swarmed the actor with praise before the premiere of his first movie since the Amber Heard trial.
Depp was on hand for the Cannes Film Festival Tuesday for the premiere of "Jeanne du Barry." JD plays King Louis XV in the flick, directed by Maïwenn ... and he was most definitely a fan favorite as he strolled down the red carpet.
You can see lots of folks crowded around Depp as he snapped selfies and signed autographs. He and Maïwenn even got a big standing O once they entered the building.
5/16/23
Of course, it's been one hell of a journey for Johnny Depp over the last year. As you know, he was involved in a very contentious defamation trial against his ex-wife Amber Heard last spring.
JD ultimately won the courtroom showdown, but at the time, the spotlight was anything but glamorous. As we reported, in the time since the trial, AH has seemingly retreated to a quiet life in Spain.
On the other hand, Johnny Depp has relished his legal win. Remember, he secured a three-year deal with Dior that's worth north of $20 million -- the most lucrative men's fragrance deal of all time.
Just another stop on his comeback journey.

Alec Baldwin Shaves Off 'Rust' Beard ... Celebrates Final Day On Set
Alec Baldwin is officially wrapped on "Rust" ... following the production screeching to a halt with the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins -- and the actor's sending off the project with a clean shave.
Baldwin showed off his back-to-normal look late Monday night, writing, "God, it felt good to shave off that beard…" You'll recall, the actor was rocking a ton of scruff for the low-budget Western.
He also gave a shout-out to his costar Patrick Scott McDermott, who's previously been featured on an episode of "Chicago Med" and a 'Please Don't Destroy' sketch on 'SNL' ... and it sounds like Alec's singing his praises.
As you know, production of the film stopped completely after the fatal shooting of Hutchins back in October 2021. It was unclear for a while if they'd even finish the movie, but production was up and filming again last month.
The crew high-tailed it out of New Mexico, where Hutchins' death took place, and relocated to Montana to finish up -- finding what appears to be an identical Western town.
4/28/23
We've seen production going down out there in its final weeks, including Alec's character being marched to the gallows for what seems to be the gunslinger's death.
We also saw him handling firearms out in Montana, which was eerie, considering the tragedy of Halyna's death.
Of course, Alec had always denied pulling the trigger on the prop gun, which discharged and killed Hutchins -- and prosecutors dropped the involuntary manslaughter charges against the actor before filming picked up again.
Looks like "Rust" is in the can, and it will be interesting to see what kind of attention it gets once it's ready to be shown to the world.

Jamie Foxx Doing Physical Rehab in Chicago ... Family by His Side
-
Exclusive
- 7.2K shares
Jamie Foxx continues to receive medical treatment after his serious health scare last month in Atlanta -- but now he's in a new city, at a facility touted as the top physical medicine and rehabilitation center in the country.
Jamie's family, including his daughters Corinne and Anelise, as well as Anelise's mother, Kristin Grannis, were all in Chicago both Saturday and Sunday to spend time with Foxx during his continued care.
While we still don't know exactly what happened to Jamie or why he's there ... we know the facility specializes in stroke recovery, traumatic brain injury rehab, spinal cord injury rehab and cancer rehabilitation.
One source tells us Foxx arrived at this facility in Chicago in late April -- after initially getting treatment in an Atlanta hospital -- and sources connected to Jamie tell us he's "recovering well."
Jamie's loved ones appeared to be in good spirits over the weekend, and there are signs he's alert and active -- including the fact Kristin left the center with Mother's Day flowers and a balloon.
Also, Anelise had her guitar with her, so you gotta imagine she was able to play and sing with her dad ... a good sign considering how important music is to Jamie.
Corinne, who has been by her dad's side from the start of his medical troubles, was also joined by her boyfriend on at least one of the visits, cracking a smile ... which, hopefully, is a marker of positive things happening for Jamie.
At the end of last week, Corinne announced her father had been out of the hospital for "weeks" and was "recuperating" -- she also mentioned he was playing pickleball.
While it's clear he's still getting treatment, the rehab center is obviously encouraging for Jamie's overall progress -- and the facility offers an adaptive sports and fitness program -- which could explain the game of pickleball.
As we reported, Jamie was first hospitalized April 12 in Atlanta for what his family called a "medical complication" ... but all seems to be headed in the right direction.
We covered it all on the latest episode of The TMZ Podcast, available on all podcast platforms.

Anne Heche Laid to Rest on Mother's Day

Anne Heche was laid to rest over the weekend on Mother's Day, in a special yet emotional ceremony for those who loved her most ... TMZ has learned.
A rep for Anne tells TMZ … Heche was given her final resting place Sunday afternoon at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery - Cathedral Mausoleum, a location reserved for some of the biggest names in showbiz.
The rep says, "She loved everyone so passionately and deeply and her children, her legacy, thank everyone for their support and love through this difficult time and are grateful to be able to honor their mother, [Sunday] on Mother’s Day."
AH was cremated, and our sources say her crypt is across from Chris Cornell and Johnny Ramone and it is next to Mickey Rooney -- a spot with a beautiful view of the lake located within the cemetery's Garden of Legends.
As we reported, Anne died last August after she was involved in a horrendous car crash. You'll recall, her car slammed into an L.A. home and caught the house on fire.
The last time we talked to Anne's son, Homer, he told us he was super proud his mom would be getting a spot on one of the mausoleum walls at HF and among her Hollywood peers.
Ben Affleck New Theater Flick Bombs J Lo's Movie Soars on Netflix!!!
Ben Affleck's been having a rough go at the movies lately -- especially with his latest flick completely bombing in theaters ... whereas his wife is thriving in the streaming world.
The actor's latest offering, "Hypnotic," flailed miserably at the box office this weekend ... raking in just $2.3 million from the 2,100 or so theaters it was playing in. The Robert Rodriguez-directed sci-fi thriller wasn't released by a major studio -- two independent production companies are behind it ... and BA's the marquee talent by a mile as far as cast.
The worst part is that Ben's film reportedly cost around $65 mil to make ... so, yeah, it's coming in at a huge loss. Plus, the reviews stink. Now, his other recent film, "Air," did much better in theaters (around $85M worldwide so far) -- but that one reportedly cost about $90M to produce ... meaning it's just barely breaking even, although it fared better with critics.
Bottom line ... Ben hasn't been cleaning up in ticket sales, but Jennifer Lopez is killing it with at-home viewers. Her new movie, "The Mother," is apparently #1 on Netflix in several countries right now -- and her other recent flick, "Shotgun Wedding" did well for Amazon too.
As far as substance, both of J Lo's movies have gotten very meh reviews -- especially 'SW.' And while her flicks are cranking out good numbers for the streaming services they're released on ... it's hard to gauge what that actually translates to for a bottom line.
Streaming companies tend to keep that data to themselves ... so there's no telling if any given movie actually converts to more subscribers -- which is how they make money.
The takeaway ... it's harder to turn a profit in theaters with original flicks not tied to existing IP, and on the flip side -- it's also hard to tell if streaming success means anything. However, since there's a better spin on the latter, Ben might wanna reconsider his approach.
Welcome to moviegoing in 2023!!!

'Superman: Legacy' Casting Search Begins Top Contenders: Corenswet, Mackey
DC may have found its next Man of Steel -- or at the least, a few options to consider ... and it sounds like the studio is looking toward a much younger Clark Kent than ever before.
THR reported Saturday that the casting search is on for "Superman: Legacy," and so far ... a few names have surfaced as top contenders to play both Superman and Lois Lane ... and maybe even supervillain Lex Luthor, depending on which trade you wanna believe.
Searching for Superman: Inside the Quest to Cast DC’s New Top Hero (Exclusive) https://t.co/FsgBVXgpbq
— The Hollywood Reporter (@THR) May 13, 2023 @THR
For starters, we have 29-year-old David Corenswet -- who isn't really a very known name in the industry thus far ... but who apparently impressed James Gunn and co. enough to move on to the screen-testing stage ... which THR says will likely happen post-Memorial Day.
His biggest role to date was in 2022's "Pearl" -- where he plays a projectionist who falls in love with Mia Goth's serial killer protagonist. As you can see ... he's got the Supe-y vibe.
Other guys that are under consideration for Superman ... Tom Brittney and Andrew Richardson, a couple of British actors. Jacob Elordi was also apparently considered, but word is ... he never submitted an audition tape, so it seems he isn't interested in the role.
Now, as for Lois ... there's a handful of buzzy actresses who are reportedly in the mix -- including 27-year-old Emma Mackey ("Sex Education") ... who's said to be a front-runner. Other gals who are said to be in the running ... Emmy-winning Rachel Brosnahan, who's the star of "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel," "Bridgerton" star Phoebe Dynevor and Samara Weaving.
While Mackey's name is swirling as choice #1 it seems, THR says Brosnahan churned out an epic audition -- although, apparently WB thinks she might be too old for the part. RB is 32 ... and Gunn is shooting for his characters to look like straight-up 20-somethings.
There's one other name that is being floated ... one Nicholas Hoult, who was just recently in the "Renfield" Dracula movie opposite Nicolas Cage. He was also in the 2015 'Mad Max' reboot, and it's his work there that left Warner impressed. THR says he's under consideration to play Luthor ... but Deadline's reporting he's actually a Superman contender too.
Either way ... it's clear WB's running with a youthful spirit here, very much in the vein of "Smallville," we suppose -- which chronicled young Clark Kent in his fictional hometown.
Another obvious telltale sign from all this news -- Gunn is definitely pivoting off of Henry Cavill and anything Zack Snyder-related. Time for some new blood ... that's the feeling here.
As they say ... up, up and away!

Dwayne Johnson Makes His 'Fast & Furious' Comeback ... After Dragging Vin Diesel, Shutting Down Return
Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson is a part of "Fast & Furious" franchise once again ... despite previously claiming he's permanently put the brakes on when it comes to Vin Diesel's flicks.
Spoiler alert, folks -- but according to TheWrap, Dwayne makes an appearance in a post-credit scene for the latest installment, "Fast X," which hits theaters next week. It's unclear exactly what goes down, or who he appears with, but it's safe to say good ol' Luke Hobbs isn't done drivin' fast cars.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
It's a shocking cameo, though ... because as we reported, Dwanye wanted nothing to do with the franchise back in 2021 after Vin publicly begged him to come back to the 'Fast' family -- asking Dwayne to "not leave the franchise idle you have a very important role to play."
Dwayne called him out soon after, telling CNN the Instagram plea was just a bunch of "manipulation" -- adding he spoke to Vin privately about his decision and there was absolutely "no chance I would return."
Of course, there was some bad blood between the 2 over the years on set ... with Dwayne saying some of his male costars on those movies -- with all signs pointing to Vin -- didn't act like "true professionals."
Can you smell what the Rock is cookin'? Cuz it smells like some embarrassing backtracking.

Jamie Foxx Daughter Says He's Out of Hospital 'Recuperating'
Jamie Foxx's daughter has had enough of the internet running wild with theories about her dad, saying he's now out of the hospital and "recuperating."
Corinne Foxx took to Instagram Friday, writing, "Update from the family: Sad to see how the media runs wild. My Dad has been out of the hospital for weeks, recuperating. In fact, he was playing pickleball yesterday! Thanks for everyone's prayers and support!"
She continues, "We have an exciting work announcement coming next week too!"
Unclear whether or not Foxx is doing any sort of rehab or physical therapy while out of the hospital -- and Corinne didn't include any new pics of her dad in the post.
Corinne's message comes on the heels of reports this week saying Foxx's family was preparing for the worst ... some even stating he was on life support.
TMZ broke the story last week, Jamie and Corinne were unable to perform their hosting duties on the FOX show "Beat Shazam" while he recovered and she stayed by his side. Nick Cannon has taken over those duties until Jamie is healthy enough to return.
It's been over a month since Jamie was hospitalized in Atlanta for a "medical complication." We've still not seen the actor since the incident.

PAUL WALKER'S DAUGHTER MEADOW Cameo In 'Fast X' Movie ... Honoring Dad's Legacy!!!
Paul Walker's only child, Meadow Walker, is taking the torch from her late father ... making a cameo in the latest chapter of the 'Fast and Furious' franchise.
Meadow is making her first appearance in one of the 'FF' movies, sharing a preview Thursday of her cameo in the upcoming "Fast X."
Paul's daughter was only 1 year old when the OG "The Fast and the Furious" was released ... and Meadow says she grew up on set watching her dad, Vin Diesel, Jordana Brewster, Michelle Rodriguez, Ludacris and others on the monitors.
Meadow says ... "Thanks to my dad, I was born into the fast family. I can't believe now I get to be up there too. With those who have been around to see me grow up."
Paul's daughter adds ... "I am so blessed to be able to honor my father's legacy and share this with him forever."
Meadow thanked director Louis Leterrier for getting her involved in the franchise. Louis is also set to direct 'Fast & Furious 11' so it will be interesting to see if Meadow gets another cameo.
We discussed Paul Walker's legacy in a recent episode of the Last Days Podcast, available on all podcast platforms.

Dolph Lundgren I've Been Battling Cancer For 8 Years
Dolph Lundgren says he's locked in an eight-year battle with cancer ... revealing his diagnosis for the first time.
The Swedish actor opens up about his cancer battle on the nationally syndicated interview series, "In Depth With Graham Bensinger," revealing he was first diagnosed with lung cancer in 2015.
Dolph says he eventually went into remission but then the cancer came back in 2020, when a doctor gave him a terminal cancer diagnosis, telling him he only had 2-3 years to live.
When the cancer came back, Dolph's fiancée Emma Krokdal says doctors at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center told him he had tumors in his lungs, stomach, spine and kidneys ... and Dolph was resigned to the fact he would likely die soon.
Fortunately for Dolph, he says he went for a second opinion with Dr. Alexandra Drakaki and her treatments are making his tumors shrink.
It's interesting ... Dolph admits to using steroids back in the day and wonders if the drugs have some connection to his cancer.

Robert De Niro Baby #7 At Age 79 ... I Got Strong Swimmers!!!
79-year-old Robert De Niro is proof you can still make some serious life changes even in your later years -- like havin' babies, for example -- which is what he recently did!
Here's the deal -- the legendary actor dropped the baby bombshell in a recent interview with ET Canada's Brittnee Blair, who brought up to him the fact that he's got 6 kiddos ... Drena, Raphael, Julian, Elliot, Aaron, and Helen.
Turns out, that list is getting a little bit longer -- shockingly he corrected her by adding "Seven actually ... I just had a baby."
Robert, who's ironically promoting his latest flick, "About My Father," seemed to breeze right past the huge news, especially for a guy his age. Instead, he went on to chat about fatherhood, saying he doesn't see himself as a cool pop ... and adding he disagrees with his kiddos from time to time, especially the younger ones.
As you know, Robert's tied the knot and gotten divorced 2 times -- once with Diahnne Abbott, and another with Grace Hightower. It's unclear who gave birth to baby #7.
3/22/23
However, in March he was seen out with rumored GF, Tiffany Chen, and as they made their way to their car you can hear someone say, "Hey guys, c'mon, she's pregnant."
We've reached out to Robert's reps for comment ... so far, no word back. But regardless, congrats!!!

Amber Heard Hanging with Her Kid in Madrid ... After 'Quitting Hollywood'
Amber Heard is still in Spain, which is only a big deal now since it's being claimed she's relocated there ... this after supposedly putting Hollywood in her rearview.
The actress was photographed over the weekend in Madrid, where she's been since last year ... when her defamation trial against Johnny Depp wrapped, which she largely lost. As you see ... she's with her young daughter, Oonagh, enjoying a day out on the town.
Not anything we haven't seen before ... Amber's been seen in this kind of setting for several months now. She's always with the kid, and they're always playing or something.
The difference now ... Daily Mail claims to have inside knowledge about her life sitch -- namely, she's apparently putting roots down there in Spain. Per reports, she's also bought a new home ... and is happy raising her daughter there too, just the two of them.
Not just that, but DM says Amber's in no hurry to return to L.A. for work -- at least not until the right role comes around at the right time. She's got 2 films in post-production now, with nothing completely new on the horizon from what we can see. Unclear how she's earning a living these days ... Amber strongly suggested she was tight on cash in the wake of the trial.
Of course, Amber was completely vilified during the court proceedings -- and that's because the public, by and large it seems, didn't buy what she was selling ... and ditto for the jury.
As you can imagine, her reputation has taken a major hit since -- so her fleeing to Europe isn't all that surprising. Word is, she's fluent in Spanish and appears to be getting on quite well with her little girl ... the father of whom nobody knows the identity of at this point.
Enjoy the tapas, AH. We hear Spain's lovely this time of year.
