Oscar Isaac I'm Poe No More in 'Star Wars' Disney Strikes Back?!?

Oscar Isaac
DAMN, DAMERON!
TMZ.com

Oscar Isaac is damn near closing the door on that galaxy far, far away -- strongly hinting he'll never play Poe Dameron again ... Disney "overlords" be damned.

The 'Star Wars' actor was outside The Mercer in NYC when he told us he's "probably not" going to return to his role as a commander in the Resistance's Starfighter Corps ... and his tone sounded even more definitive than that.

Oscar's not necessarily done anything to ingratiate himself with Disney -- the owners of the iconic film franchise -- since the release of the final movie in the third trilogy, 'The Rise of Skywalker.'

He came out shortly afterward and said "Disney overlords were not ready" to explore a "current-thinking love story" between his Poe character and the Finn character played by John Boyega ... despite claiming he tried to push things in that direction.

Many fans viewed Isaac's outspokenness as a sign he was done with 'Star Wars,' and based on what he told us ... seems their suspicions are confirmed.

Of course, Boyega had some rough moments with the Mouse House too -- losing his 'Skywalker' script, and then that laying pipe comment.

Conor McGregor All Smiles At Disney ... Happy As Duck!!!

Here's Conor McGregor having the time of his life at the happiest place on Earth ... and now we know he's a huge fan of Donald Duck!!!

The Irish superstar hit up Disney California Adventure Park in Anaheim Thursday with his girlfriend, Dee Devlin, and their two kids, Conor Jr. and Croia.

Conor was all smiles under his Donald Duck hat, and Dee also got in the Disney spirit with some classic Minnie Mouse ears. The happy family was mostly hanging out at Pixar Pier, and folks tell us they stopped Buzz Lightyear for a photo op.

Seems Conor is still riding high following last week's UFC 246 victory ... and he's doing what most athletes do after winning the big one ... checking out the Mouse House.

It's pretty cool ... the park uses Conor's Proper Twelve Irish Whiskey in its Irish coffee ... but no word if he treated himself.

Kylie Jenner & Travis Scott Together with Stormi at Disney ... First Time Since 'Thirst Trap' Squabble

Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott got back to their co-parenting ways thanks to the magic of Walt Disney World ... showing they're still cool, despite ending 2019 on a bad foot.

The exes were spotted together Wednesday with their daughter, Stormi, at the Magic Kingdom in Orlando ... taking a ride on Peter Pan's Flight. It's the first time we've seen all 3 together, in one public photo, in several months.

HANGIN' WITH DAD
TMZ.com

They went to a pumpkin patch together in October but didn't snap any full family pics -- and before that ... ya gotta go all the way back to Travis' Netflix premiere in August.

Our sources say Trav joined Kylie and Stormi, along with the rest of the Kardashian/Jenner clan, as sort of an early bday treat for their daughter. She turns 2 next weekend.

Kylie Jenner & Kourtney K. Family Trip To The Mouse House!!!

Kylie Jenner and Kourtney Kardashian are two super cool moms and aunts ... because they're hanging with the little ones at the most magical place on Earth!!!

Kylie and Kourtney hit up the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World in Florida Wednesday for a little weekday fun. Kylie brought Stormi, Kourtney brought Penelope and even North West got in on the action!

Kris Jenner's there too, keeping a watchful eye over her daughters and granddaughters ... but no sign of her sneaking sugary treats to the kids even though Disney's famous for its churros.

George Lucas Meets Baby Yoda!!! Looks Like Proud Grandpa

George Lucas gently cradling Baby Yoda is already the best thing to happen in 2020 -- and if you're not feeling that ... ya might be dead inside.

The 'Star Wars' creator finally met arguably the most popular character to come outta the Disney+ series, "The Mandalorian." He's, for sure, the most meme'd! Jon Favreau, executive producer of the show, shared the pic of George and Baby Yoda on set while shooting for season 2.

BTW ... Baby Yoda's more of an Internet handle. The character simply goes by The Child on the show -- but it's easy to see how the nickname caught fire.

Of course, George created Jedi Master Yoda for his 1980 film "Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back" (aka the Star Wars G.O.A.T.). Baby Yoda, who is 50 years old in the series, has been all the craze and Disney's about to cash in by dropping tons of merch in March -- but knock-offs are everywhere already.

Fittingly, Favreau captioned the meeting ... "Proud grandpa."

Prince Harry Pitched Meghan's Voice-Over Work ... To Disney's Bob Iger

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were ramping up for their exit from royal life as early as this summer ... when Harry pitched his wife's talents to Disney's CEO ... face-to-face.

Resurfaced video from this past July appears to show PH chatting it up with Bob Iger at the '"Lion King" premiere in London -- during which he seems to say, "You know she does voice-overs?" to a genuinely surprised Iger who responds with, "Oh really? Ah ..."

Iger goes on to say he didn't know that, and Harry follows up by saying Meg is "really interested." Moments later, you hear someone clearly say "We'd love to try." Mind you, this was all being said right next to Meg as she hugged Beyonce and Jay-Z.

As we reported ... Meghan's work with Disney is a done deal -- she reportedly completed her gig with them before the holidays in exchange for a donation to a charity called Elephants Without Borders. The nature of the voice-over and the amount of payment is unclear.

Disney Actor Devan Leos Explains Plea Deal in Attempted Murder Case I Was Defending Myself!!!

Devan Leos
FIGHT OR FLIGHT
UPDATE

3:49 PM PT -- Devan Leos has hopped on social media to explain his plea deal, and he insists he was only out to defend himself and his property.

UPDATE

The Disney actor basically recounted what we'd already heard ... he and his buddy got confronted by a homeless guy, who Devan describes as having been "super methed-out" and wielding a knife, and after the man started kicking and denting his car ... he says he decided to use his vehicle to get out of the situation -- namely, by ramming him.

UPDATE

Devan also says he's got PTSD and was in fight-or-flight mode at the time. He also acknowledges he could've done something different ... but makes clear he didn't try to kill anyone.

Disney actor Devan Leos can breathe a huge sigh of relief ... he won't spend any time behind bars after striking a plea deal in his attempted murder case.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Devan pled no contest to 1 count of attempted murder back in April. He was sentenced to 5 years probation, 120 hours of volunteer work at a homeless shelter and 30 days with Caltrans. We're told the 1 count of assault with a deadly weapon was tossed.

The plea deal stems from an incident that went down in December 2018. Law enforcement sources say Devan -- who appeared in Disney Channel's "Mighty Med" -- and a friend were at a 7-Eleven convenience store in L.A. where they got into an argument with a transient.

We're told when Devan and his friend got back in their car, the transient kicked it as they were pulling away. That's when Devan allegedly drove toward the transient and accelerated several times before hopping the curb and knocking down the transient.

We reached out to Leos ... no word back yet.

Mickey, Minnie and Donald It Ain't Such a Happy Place 'Cause We're Gettin' Groped!!!

There are new perils for Mickey, Minnie Mouse and Donald Duck ... patrons at Disney World are grabbing them, and in Minnie's case ... the assaulter had allegedly done it to other characters at the park.

The 36-year-old woman who plays Minnie says she posed for a photo with a man and his wife earlier this month, and as they were taking the pic he groped her chest 3 times. She filed a police report against the 61-year-old man but ultimately decided against pressing charges.

Turns out the guy has a history at Disney World. He had an 'inappropriate interaction' with another cast member the day after his interaction with Minnie. The incident occurred at the Magic Kingdom, but Disney would not give specifics, except to say the man -- who was a member of the Disney Vacation Club -- is now banned from the theme parks.

There were other incidents as well. A woman who plays Mickey Mouse claims a woman patted her on the head 5 times, and apparently the shock caused her to endure neck strain.  The patron says she barely touched Mickey.

As for Donald Duck ... the 18-year-old in costume says a female patron repeatedly touched her on the arms, chest, belly and face.

A rep for the park says "Everyone should feel safe at work, and we encourage Cast Members to come forward in any uncomfortable situation."

'Boy Meets World' Maitland Ward Xmas Porno's All the Rage Hallmark/Peloton Spoof, Let's Do It!!!

Maitland Ward

TMZ.com

Maitland Ward says there's a lot of porn potential in two controversial ads for this holiday season -- and it sounds like she wants to do 'em ... make them into spoofs, we mean.

We talked to the former "Boy Meets World" actress -- who played Rachel for a few seasons,  but has since turned to adult films -- and asked her about the recent Hallmark commercial that was temporarily yanked from the network because it featured a lesbian couple kissing. Maitland says the move was ridiculous, and yes ... she was offended.

Zola Commercial
SEALED WITH A KISS

Our photog went a little deeper though and asked a natural follow-up ... any potential there for a porno spin on it??? Check it out -- seems like Maitland thinks there might be a sex-filled future, which she says would absolutely piss off Hallmark. Hmmm ... you think?!?

More than that though, she says the highly-mocked Peloton ad is porn gold. She doesn't exactly explain why, but we'll just let your dirty imagination run wild with the possibilities.

Peloton
SURPRISE!!!
PELOTON

Our camera guy also probed about how Maitland's paycheck now compares to her Disney days, and you might find her answer pretty surprising. Porn >>> 'BMW'

Kourtney K. & Younes Bendjima Cozying Up At the Mouse House

DISNEY DATE
TMZ.com

Kourtney Kardashian and Younes Bendjima have become pretty much inseparable ... and if you don't believe it check out their trip to Disneyland.

Kourt and Younes hit up The Happiest Place on Earth Tuesday for a good 'ol fashion date. She didn't try and keep things on the DL ... looking pretty recognizable in a yellow sweater. Younes wore a bucket hat ... but his good looks made him instantly recognizable.

Witnesses tell us there was PDA ... kissing and whatnot. In between moments of affection they hit up Toy Story Mania ... the interactive ride where the best and fastest aim makes you a winner.

TMZ broke the story ... Younes and Kourtney have been seeing each other for several months. We were also told it's been very private and things are moving slow. But, they are quickly making whatever their relationship is public. They hit up Miami just a few weeks ago for Art Basel.

Her baby daddy Scott Disick and Sofia Richie have been inseparable for more than 2 years.

The heart wants what the heart wants, eh?

'Cinderella' Star Billy Porter We've Evolved in the Me Too Era ... Fairy Tales Should Too!!!

Billy Porter
IT'S DIFFERENT NOW
TMZSports.com

Billy Porter believes some of our most beloved stories need to change going forward to reflect changes in society, but he adds -- there's no need to cancel the original tales.

We got the "Pose" star in NYC -- who's set to step into the fairy godmother role in Disney's future, live-action "Cinderella" film -- and asked him about calling the reboot a movie "for the #MeToo era."

Billy tells us it's not a knock on the classic "Cinderella" or any of the other fairy-tales, it's just a statement about how things have evolved. He says it's time for remakes to reflect that.

As the Golden Globe-nominated actor puts it ... we're in a different place now.

The new "Cinderella" is a James Corden adaptation and is scheduled to begin shooting in early 2020. Camila Cabello will slip into the glass slippers for her feature film debut.

Disney Sued Trust our Lawyers ... That's Our Slogan in 'Frozen 2'!!!

Disney's got trust issues ... it's being sued for straight-up jacking a battle cry that a breast cancer awareness company says has been theirs for more than a decade.

According to new legal docs obtained by TMZ ...  Trust Your Journey -- a Nevada-based company formed as a result of a personal fight and victory over breast cancer -- is suing the Mouse House claiming the company's illegally slapping its slogan, "Trust Your Journey," on "Frozen 2" merch.

If you've seen the movie, you know that's basically Anna and Elsa's theme. But, in the suit, Trust Your Journey says Disney's slapped the slogan on t-shirts, posters, jewelry and tons of other stuff ... despite its trademark on the phrase.

President Trump's Campaign Thanos Creator Pissed ... Over 45 & Villain Meme

President Trump's reelection campaign apparently likes to think of their boss as an equal to the destroyer of worlds, the villainous Thanos ... but the 'Avengers' character's creator is NOT having it.

A Twitter account managed by Trump's reelection team posted a super-produced clip in which DT's head is superimposed over Thanos' body from 'Infinity War' ... and he snaps his Democratic enemies -- who just introduced articles of impeachment -- to dust.

They captioned the post, "House Democrats can push their sham impeachment all they want. President Trump's re-election is 𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲." Funny, right? WRONG ... so says the comic book writer and artist who brought Thanos to life back in 1973. He ain't laughing.

Jim Starlin -- the creator of Thanos -- says he finds it pretty disturbing that Trump's goons are comparing him to a mass murderer -- Thanos literally goes around blowing up planets in "The Avengers." He says, "How sick is that? These are sad and strange times we are going through. Fortunately all things, even national nightmares, eventually come to an end."

Starlin also said he felt violated by the creative hijacking, and said DT has an infantile ego.

Funny enough ... the scene of Thanos snapping that Trump's team used in their hypercut is actually from the part where he dies in the final movie. Spoiler alert ... Tony Stark ends up with all the Infinity Stones, and then snaps Thanos and his henchmen to oblivion.

So, basically ... Trump and co. didn't even get the right death snapping scene right. Oof ...

Director Rian Johnson Nope, Haven't Seen 'Skywalker' Yet ... And About That Baby Yoda

Rian Johnson
first-time viewer
TMZ.com

Rian Johnson is just like the rest of us when it comes to the new 'Star Wars' movie ... he hasn't seen it yet, despite him directing its predecessor in the series.

The filmmaker opened up to us this weekend in NYC about whether he'd gotten any sort of sneak peak ahead of 'The Rise of Skywalker' hitting theaters later this month. As it turns out ... he hasn't! No special treatment for the guy who manned 'The Last Jedi,' it seems.

It's NBD to Rian though -- he tells us he's looking forward to watching it in theaters for the first time like everyone else. Interestingly, he also says he hopes it's the best one ever.

Now, on to a much more serious topic we absolutely needed Rian to weigh in on ... is Baby Yoda actually cuter than those damn puppy-eyed Porgs??? John Boyega sure thought so.

Check out RJ's answer ... he's noncommittal at first on which one is truly more adorable -- almost like a parent who doesn't wanna compare their kids -- but he finally caves and chooses sides. His choice might not surprise you, or anyone who's watched 'Mandalorian.'

Guess everyone's over those Ewoks at this point then, huh?

Disney Actor Chris Tavarez Charged with Felony Dom. Violence ... Has Prior Conviction

Chris Tavarez, from the Disney Channel hit "K.C. Undercover," isn't getting off easy in his domestic violence case with his girlfriend ... and his past is a big reason why.

The L.A. County D.A. has charged the 27-year-old actor with one count of felony domestic violence with a prior conviction. That prior is from a plea deal Tavarez took in 2018.

According to the City Attorney's Office, Tavarez was charged with 2 counts of spousal battery for an incident that occurred in June 2017. He pled no contest to one count, and had to serve 180 days in jail, complete a 52-week Domestic Violence Treatment Program, pay a fine and was ordered to stay away from the victim. The second count was dismissed.

He was also placed on 36 months summary probation, which means his latest arrest could mean a probation violation.

We broke the story ... Tavarez was busted after he allegedly flew into a rage during an argument with his GF and pushed her, which caused her to hit her head and suffer a concussion.

Tavarez is best known for playing Darien on the hit show, 'K.C.' ... which starred Zendaya.

Hilary Duff So, On The 'Lizzie' Reboot WHERE'S MIRANDA?!?

Hilary Duff
JUST LIKE OL' TIMES
TMZ.com

Hilary Duff seems to have a few tricks up her sleeve about her new "Lizzie McGuire" reboot on Disney+ -- and by that, we mean Miranda MIGHT be coming back. Maybe ...

Of course, we could be totally wrong -- 'cause the answer really isn't all that clear based on what HD told us Saturday in L.A. That said, you better believe we asked -- in our own roundabout way -- about Lalaine Vergara-Paras possibly being brought back.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

ICYMI ... Disney+ announced it's doing a 'Lizzie' reboot as part of its upcoming content, and just last week ... Adam Lamberg -- who played Gordo -- was confirmed to be onboard.

The only remaining question -- as far as die-hard fans are concerned -- is whether Lalaine would be reprising her role as Miranda Sanchez. After all, the 3 of them were an inseparable trio during the original series' 2-season run. So, you'd think it's a no-brainer, right?!?

Check out the clip ... Hilary doesn't let anything slip about any future characters making a comeback. But, based on her tone here, something tells us there certainly may be.

Considering Miranda's character was mysteriously written out of the movie in 2003 -- Lalaine supposedly went on to pursue a music career in real life at the time -- we're pretty certain viewers would like nothing more than to see her back together with her old TV gang.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

It looks like the feeling might be mutual on Lalaine's part as well -- she recently posted a throwback photo of her, Hilary and Adam together on set. So, she's definitely got 'Lizzie' on the brain.

So, on behalf of all those who love "Lizzie McGuire," STOP PLAYING AND BRING BACK MIRANDA!!! Please and thanks. 😁
