Leonardo DiCaprio está trabajando en una nueva película, lo que tiene sentido, ya que su campaña de los Oscar ha terminado finalmente, y no rindió frutos este año.

TMZ ha obtenido un video del actor en el set el lunes en el norte de California, donde estaba en traje completo, maquillaje y caracterizado para su papel. El equipo de Paul Thomas Anderson rodó una escena con al menos un par de tomas diferentes y Leo entra en acción frente a las cámaras.

Leo está interpretando a un personaje muy diferente a lo que nos tiene acostumbrados. Últimamente, el hombre ha interpretado figuras históricas en hisotiras de época ("Asesinos de la Luna", "Érase una vez en Hollywood", etc).

Aquí, Leo parece más un tipo moderno con mala suerte en un escenario actual. De hecho, se ve bastante casero y áspero.

Incluso exhibe sus dotes actorales en nuestro video, gritando en el receptor en un teléfono público, cerrándolo de golpe y cayendo con mucha emoción. El tío está en su salsa.

Aún no se sabe cuál será el argumento de esta película, que por ahora se mantiene en secreto, pero sí sabemos quién más se unirá a Leo a medida que avance la producción... Sean Penn y Regina Hall también han sido contratados para protagonizar, por lo que podemos asegurar que es un sólido elenco.

Un testigo ocular también nos dice que parece que la ciudad ficticia que están tratando de crear podría llamarse Baktin Cross, porque los carros de policía que pasan cuentan con ese logo.

Todo está aún rodeado de misterio, pero conociendo el estilo de Paul, parece que se está perfilando en la línea de "Licorice Pizza", "Boogie Nights", "Inherent Vice", "Punch Drunk Love" o incluso "Magnolia". Un dato curioso de Boogie Nights... Paul ha dicho públicamente que quería a Leo para ese papel, pero no pudo conseguirlo, y en su lugar eligió a Mark Wahlberg.

Ahora, por fin tiene la oportunidad de trabajar con Leo, y parece que están haciendo magia en la pantalla. Tampoco se nos escapa que Paul Thomas Anderson ha conseguido que muchos actores hayan sido nominados a los Oscar a lo largo de los años, como Tom Cruise, Joaquin Phoenix, Julianne Moore y otros.

Viendo cómo Leo se perdió este año por su película con Scorsese, tal vez quiere unir fuerzas con el talentoso director para ir tras la estatuilla.

Leonardo DiCaprio is getting right back to work on a new movie -- which makes sense, we suppose, since his Oscar campaign is finally done ... with nothing to show for it this year.

TMZ has obtained video of the actor on set Monday in Northern California, where he was in full-blown costume, makeup and character as he and Paul Thomas Anderson's crew shot a scene with at least a few different takes ... and LDC going all out while cameras were rolling.

As you can see here, Leo is taking on quite a different character than what he might normally do -- lately, the guy's been playing more historical figures in period pieces (see "Killers of the Flower Moon," "Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood," etc.).

Here, Leo looks like more of a modern down-on-his-luck dude in a setting that looks like present day. In fact, he comes across as kinda homely ... and rough around the edges.

He even puts his acting chops on display in our video ... yelling into the receiver at a payphone, slamming it and slumping down with a lot of emotion. Dude's very in his element.

No word yet on what the plot of this film might be -- it's being kept under wraps for now -- but we do know who else will eventually join Leo as the production continues ... Sean Penn and Regina Hall have also been tapped to star, so it's a solid cast in the mix here.

An eyewitness also tells us that it appears that the fictional town PTA and co. are trying to create might be called Baktin Cross ... 'cause the cop cars that pass feature that signage.

It's all still shrouded in mystery -- but knowing PTA's style, this looks to be shaping up in the vein of "Licorice Pizza," "Boogie Nights," "Inherent Vice," "Punch-Drunk Love" or even "Magnolia." Speaking of 'BN,' fun fact ... Paul has publicly said he wanted Leo for that lead role, but wasn't able to land him, going with Mark Wahlberg instead. LDC was the one who got away!

Now, he's finally got his chance to work with Leo ... and so far, it appears they're making magic onscreen. It's also not lost on us that PTA has gotten tons of actors nominated at the Oscars over the years ... including Tom Cruise, Joaquin Phoenix, Julianne Moore and others.

Seeing how Leo missed out this year for his Martin Scorsese flick, maybe he wants another bite at the apple with Paul. Based on what we see here ... the homeboy's coming for that statuette.

Christian Bale es conocido por sus extremas transformaciones corporales en la gran pantalla, pero para su cumpleaños número 50 el tipo ha llegado a un buen punto medio, luciendo súper en forma y tonificado.

El actor ganador del Oscar fue fotografiado el lunes celebrando sus grandes 50 en Cabo, México, para ser específicos, y como hemos dicho, estaba definitivamente listo para mostrar sus enormes atributos a las cámaras, pues apareció en el balcón sin su camiseta.

También llevaba una toalla alrededor de su cintura en un momento también...

Finalmente, Christian Bale se puso un top, un sombrero y unas gafas de sol para protegerse de los rayos y se dirigió a la playa con su mujer Sibi Blažić y su hijo de nueve años, Joseph. Vamos a decir esto.... incluso vestido, Christian deja en vergüenza a otros padres.

Christian y Sibi también son padres de Emmeline, de 18 años, aunque parece que ella no estuvo presente en esta escapada familiar.

El actor de Hollywood está claramente disfrutando su tiempo libre después de tomarse un respiro en su carrera. Su único crédito en 2023 fue la voz en off para la película animada "El niño y la garza", y actualmente no tiene nada en carpeta para este año.

Por supuesto, él sigue siendo uno de los actores más prolíficos hoy en día y aún está en un punto alto de su carrera. Sin duda, puede permitirse un descanso ante las cámaras.

Por suerte para nosotros (y todos los demás), aquí está ofreciendo otro tipo de espectáculo. Tampoco se exigen entradas de admisión general para verlo.

Christian Bale is known for his extreme on-screen body transformations -- but for his 50th birthday, the dude's reached a great middle-ground ... looking super ripped and toned.

The Oscar-winning actor was photographed Monday ringing in the big 5-0 down in Mexico -- Cabo, to be specific -- and like we said ... the guy was definitely ready to show off his huge guns for the cameras, 'cause he was hanging out on the balcony without a shirt on.

He was also wearing a towel around his waist at one point too ... big-time thirst trap vibes.

Eventually, CB popped on a top, hat, and shades to shield himself from the rays ... making his way down to a beach with his wife, Sibi Blažić, and their nine-year-old son Joseph. We'll say this about him ... even when clothed, Christian puts other dad bods to shame.

Christian and Sibi are also parents to daughter Emmeline, 18 ... although, she didn't appear to be on the family getaway here.

The Hollywood actor is clearly making the most of his downtime after taking a bit of a breather on the career front -- his only 2023 credit was voiceover work for "The Boy and the Heron" ... and he currently has nothing in the pipeline this year.

Granted, he's still one of the most prolific actors working today -- and he's still killing it at this point in his career. He can most certainly afford to take a break from on-camera work.

Lucky for us (and everyone else) ... he's right here putting on another type of show, no general admission tickets needed either.

Lionel Richie is still buzzing with the magic from "The Greatest Night In Pop" exactly 39 years later ... the legendary singer proved he can still bring the house down with today's fresh, young talent!!!

TMZ also obtained footage of LR performing a duet with Jon Batiste of his chart-topping track, "All Night Long," inside Delilah in West Hollywood.

Lionel introduced Jon and Andra Day to the stage ... and was enjoying the show until Jon played the opening keys of "All Night Long" and Lionel couldn't resist joining in ... can't have those TikTokers thinking JB came up with the track!!!

Jon spoke on the song being a beacon of togetherness and he and Lionel harmonized the 'Jambo Jumbo' together.

Later, Jon and Andra joined forces to belt out their version of "We Are the World" ... earning LR's approval!!! Good job, guys.

Netflix had its premiere for "The Greatest Night In Pop" at The Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood beforehand ... a doc that chronicles the backstory of 1985's megahit "We Are the World" ... the African charity megahit that became the fastest-selling single at the time.

The record boasted of virtually every superstar in music at the time ... Michael Jackson, Diana Ross, Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles -- you name it ... and goes into detail about how they were able to manage dozens of legends' egos and end up winning 4 Grammy awards.

More importantly, though ... this charitable effort raised tons of cash -- upwards of $60 mil toward fighting famine and hunger in Ethiopia. So, it was a success on all fronts.

Inside the premiere, Lionel joked about the differences between the film and music industry and got a hearty laugh from the crowd ... because it's probably true!!!

Lionel Richie sigue vibrando con la magia de "The Greatest Night In Pop" exactamente 39 años después, ¡el legendario cantante demostró que todavía puede hacer vibrar la casa con los jóvenes talentos de hoy en día!

TMZ también obtuvo imágenes de Lionel interpretando a dúo con Jon Batiste su éxito "All Night Long" en Deliah en West Hollywood.

Lionel presentó a Jon y Andra Day y estaba disfrutando del espectáculo hasta que Jon tocó las teclas de apertura de "All Night Long". Por supuesto ¡Lionel no pudo resistirse!, lo cual terminó siendo un momento bastante épico.

Jon habló de la canción como un faro de unión y él y Lionel armonizaron juntos el '"Jambo Jumbo".

Más tarde, Jon y Andra unieron fuerzas para cantar su versión de "We Are the World", ¡ganándose la aprobación de Lionel! Buen trabajo, chicos.

Netflix estrenó "The Greatest Night In Pop" en el Egyptian Theatre de Hollywoo, un documental que narra la historia del mega hit de 1985 "We Are the World", el cual destinó sus ganancias para ayudar a África, se convirtió en el single más rápidamente vendido en ese momento.

El disco contó con la participación de prácticamente todas las superestrellas de la música de la época, Michael Jackson, Diana Ross, Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles... y entra en detalles acerca de cómo fueron capaces de manejar los egos de decenas de leyendas y terminar ganando 4 premios Grammy.

Dentro de la premiere, Lionel bromeó sobre las diferencias entre la industria del cine y la de la música y consiguió una sonora carcajada del público... ¡porque probablemente sea verdad!

Florence Pugh got caught in a vulnerable state while shooting "Oppenheimer" -- namely, when she and Cillian Murphy were naked ... during which cameras weren't rolling.

The actress shared this cringeworthy story at a recent screening of the blockbuster, where there was a Q&A ... and where FP revealed there were some technical difficulties at one point in the production, and it came at the worst time ... during a sex scene.

If you've seen the movie ... you know there's at least 3 sex scenes where Florence and Cillian are nude -- so it's unclear which one exactly this happened for, but it sounds awkward.

Apparently, while they were filming this intimate scene, one of the main cameras broke ... and the whole crew had to hit pause while they worked on it to fix the problem. That left Florence and Cillian standing by (naked) as they waited for the issue to be resolved.

Luckily, FP had a good attitude about it all -- her whole point here is that 'Oppenheimer' was very much like an old-school Hollywood production ... and she's talking about how in awe she was by everyone and how they handled their craft. Even during this stop-down, she says she found stuff to appreciate ... and learned a thing or two about the equipment, etc.

Her point about the set being like a classic Hollywood movie isn't lost on us either -- considering Christopher Nolan's rep for wanting his cast/crew to be in the moment (and, allegedly, not to sit down either) ... this kinda makes sense that Florence and Cillian stuck around during this.

You'd figure the stars of a major film like this could head back to their trailers during this in-between time ... not so for a CN flick though, apparently! On his set, you see it through.

Anyway, sticking with it for these inconveniences clearly paid off for Florence and Co. -- 'Oppenheimer' is an Oscar darling this year, and is primed to win a bunch of awards.

Florence Pugh fue atrapada en un estado vulnerable durante el rodaje de "Oppenheimer", es decir, cuando ella y Cillian Murphy estaban desnudos, ¡y las cámaras no estaban grabando!

La actriz compartió esta historia en una reciente proyección de la superproducción, donde se realizó un Q&A y Florence Pugh relató algunas dificultades técnicas en un momento de la producción, las que llegaron en el peor momento, durante su escena de sexo.

Si han visto la película, sabrán que hay al menos tres escenas de sexo donde Florence y Cillian están desnudos, por lo que no está claro en cuál de ellas ocurrió esto exactamente, pero suena incómodo.

Al parecer, mientras estaban grabando esta escena, una de las cámaras principales se rompió y el equipo tuvo que hacer una pausa mientras solucionaban el problema. Eso dejó a Florence y Cillian de pie (desnudos) mientras esperaban a que se resolviera el asunto.

Afortunadamente, Florence se tomó las cosas con una buena actitud. Su punto aquí es que "Oppenheimer" fue muy parecida a una producción de Hollywood de la vieja escuela y está asombrada por cómo todos manejaban su oficio. Incluso durante esta pausa, dice que encontró cuestiones que apreciar y aprendió un par de cosas sobre el equipo, etc.

Tampoco se nos escapa su comentario de que el plató era como una película clásica de Hollywood, teniendo en cuenta la reputación de Christopher Nolan de querer que su reparto y su equipo estén presentes tiene sentido que Florence y Cillian se quedaran en el plató.

Uno se imagina que las estrellas de una película tan importante como ésta podrían haber vuelto a sus trailers durante este intermedio, ¡pero no fue así en esta película de Christopher Nolan, al parecer! En su plató, te quedas hasta el final.

En cualquier caso, Florence y compañía han sabido sobreponerse a estos inconvenientes: "Oppenheimer" es una de las favoritas a los Oscar de este año y está preparada para ganar un montón de premios.

Sydney Sweeney is about to upgrade someone's garage in a major way ... because a custom 2024 Ford Mustang GT she designed herself is part of a new giveaway.

The actress is once again teaming up with Ford, and this time they're holding a contest for one lucky fan to win her super sweet Mustang.

Sydney's custom designs are pretty awesome ... inspired by Sydney's Brittany Blue 1966 Mustang, this car features a Robin's Egg Blue exterior with a crushed glass clear coat and 20-inch chrome rims.

Under the hood, Sydney's signature is emblazoned on the engine.

Sydney and Ford's collab logo, a heart bolt emblem, is featured on the dashboard and exterior side panel ... and it's embossed on the leather seats.

SS is big on nighttime cruises ... so she added color-changing LED stars across the headliner. Pretty cool stuff.

The contest begins today and runs through Feb. 7 and Sydney and Ford say they're looking for someone who defies stereotypes with their pursuit of their passions.

Sydney's doing that some herself ... she's really big into cars and the mechanics behind them.

Participants can enter to win by sharing their stories on the Ford Instagram or TikTok channels.

And, get this ... Ford actually made two of these Mustangs ... meaning the contest winner and Sydney will have identical cars!!!

Lindsay Lohan está extendiendo sus alas por los Estados Unidos últimamente. Hace poco, estuvo en Nueva York para hacer un poco de promoción y ahora está en Georgia, en compañía de su pequeño bebé.

La actriz apareció el lunes en Alpharetta, Georgia, que se encuentra a unos 40 minutos de Atlanta, con su marido Bader Shammas y su bebé Luai. Los tres estaban dando un agradable paseo en su cochecito, con el papá a cargo del coche y LiLo de la merienda.

Si se preguntan qué diablos están haciendo Lindsay y compañía en el estado del sur, les alegrará saber que probablemente tiene que ver con trabajo, en concreto, con una nueva película de Netflix.

Recientemente se anunció que Lindsay protagonizará otra película navideña junto a Kristin Chenoweth, después de haber participado en otra similar para ellos hace un par de años, "Falling for Christmas". ¡Parece que al streamer le gustó su material y la fichó para otra!

Teniendo en cuenta la gran cantidad de películas y espectáculos que se están filmando constantemente en el estado de Georgia, y con "Our Little Secret" ya en producción, es una apuesta casi segura que eso es lo que LiLo está grabando en estos momentos. Por suerte para ella tiene a su familia a su lado, lo que parece ser su nueva norma.

Es interesante, Lindsay normalmente vive en el extranjero en Dubai, pero últimamente ha estado en Estados Unidos por negocios. Como dijimos previamente, hace un par de semanas estuvo en la Gran Manzana para el estreno de la nueva película de "Mean Girls", en la que hizo un breve cameo / aparición.

Lindsay Lohan is spreading her wings in the States lately -- she was just recently in NYC for some promo work -- and now, she's in Georgia ... where her little one is tagging along.

The actress popped up in Alpharetta, GA Monday -- about 40 minutes outside of Atlanta -- where she and her husband, Bader Shammas, were on a nice little walk with their baby boy, Luai, who was chillin' in his stroller ... with dad taking care of push duties, as LiLo snacked.

If you're wondering what the heck Lindsay and co. are doing in the southern state right now -- you might be happy to hear it's likely work-related ... namely, a new Netflix movie.

She was recently announced to star in yet another Christmas flick opposite Kristin Chenoweth -- this after having been in a different Xmas movie for them a couple years back, 'Falling for Christmas.'

Seems the streamer liked her stuff and signed her up for another one! BTW, we recently got Kristin at LAX ... and she had some kind words for Lindsay -- saying she's a pleasure to work with.

Seeing how films/shows are constantly filming in the state of Georgia -- and with 'Our Little Secret' already in production -- it's a safe bet that's exactly what LiLo's shooting right now. Lucky for her, she's got her family right by her side ... which seems to be her new norm.

It's interesting ... Lindsay normally lives abroad in Dubai, but lately -- she's been here in America for business. Like we said up top ... she was just in the Big Apple a couple weeks ago for the premiere of the new 'Mean Girls' ... in which she had a brief cameo/appearance.

Jonathan Majors está hablando sobre su vida después de ser declarado culpable en un caso de violencia doméstica y dice que está siendo positivo tras el veredicto.

TMZ se encontró con el actor de "Creed III" el lunes en West Hollywood, quien nos cuenta que a pesar de que el juicio lo impactó, ha estado aferrándose a la fe y a la oración para encontrar un poco de luz en este tiempo oscuro, y añadió: "Dios es bueno".

Enfocarse en la religión definitivamente parece estar haciendo maravillas. Majors estaba sonriente y relajado durante nuestra interacción, aunque cuando se sintió presionado a hablar sobre cuestiones del trabajo en el futuro nos dijo que era suficiente por ahora.

Los asuntos relacionados con su carrera son claramente un tema delicado para Jonathan Majors. El actor fue despedido de una serie de proyectos después de su veredicto, incluyendo todos los proyectos de Marvel, que es, en general, un pináculo financiero para cualquier actor, por lo que solo podemos suponer que fue difícil cuando decidieron sacarlo.

Por supuesto, sería de mal gusto para los grandes estudios de Hollywood estar unido a Majors después de sus recientes batallas legales.

Recuerden, el actor fue condenado por 2 de 4 cargos después de ser acusado de maltratar a su exnovia, Grace Jabbari. Los cargos incluían asalto imprudente y acoso, aunque fue absuelto de acoso agravado y asalto intencional.

Jonathan volvió a reiterar su inocencia a principios de este mes en una entrevista con ABC News, la primera desde el veredicto, aunque expresó su pesar por la forma en que manejó las cosas con su ex.

Está por verse lo que va a decir cuando esté enfrente del juez el próximo 6 de febrero, y se enfrente hasta un año tras las rejas.

Jonathan Majors is speaking out about his life after the guilty verdict, and before sentencing in the domestic violence case -- and he says he's staying positive and doing okay in the aftermath.

TMZ got the "Creed III" actor out Monday in West Hollywood, where despite the judgment blindsiding him, he told us he's been relying on faith and prayer for some light amid this dark time ... adding, "God is good."

A focus on religion definitely seems to be doing him wonders .. Majors was grinning, happy, and relaxed during our interaction -- though when pressed on matters regarding future work, he drew the line ... telling us that was enough for now.

Work-related matters are clearly a sore subject for JM ... he was booted from a series of projects following his guilty verdict, including all Marvel projects -- which is, generally, a financial pinnacle for any actor, so we can only assume it was a bummer for him when they pulled the rug from under his feet.

Of course, it would be in bad taste for major Hollywood studios to be attached to Majors after his recent legal battles.

Remember ... he was convicted on 2 of 4 counts after being accused of roughing up his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari -- the charges included reckless assault and harassment ... though he was acquitted of aggravated harassment and intentional assault.

Jonathan maintained his innocence earlier this month to ABC News in his first interview since the verdict ... though, he expressed regret over how he handled things with his ex.

It remains to be seen if he'll say that in front of the judge when he's sentenced -- that's scheduled for Feb. 6, and he faces up to a year behind bars.

Shaun Weiss is celebrating another milestone in his amazing turnaround ... and the 'Mighty Ducks' star is marking the occasion with some other kid actors from back in the day.

Shaun reached 4 years sober Thursday, and he was surrounded by a whos who of '90s stars at the Corbin Bowl in Tarzana, CA ... where he thanked everyone who helped him stay on the straight and narrow and performed some of his stand-up comedy routines.

Thomas Ian Nicholas from the 'American Pie' franchise and "Rookie of The Year" provided some of the night's entertainment ... singing and playing guitar.

Other '90s celebs supporting Shaun included ... Nate Richert from "Sabrina The Teenage Witch," Natanya Ross from "The Secret World of Amex Mack," Marty York from "The Sandlot," plus John Diresta from "Mickey Blue Eyes" and "Miss Congeniality."

The milestone is huge for Shaun ... he seemed to hit rock bottom back in 2020 when he was arrested for burglary and meth, posing for an infamous mug shot. Back then, he used to live on the streets.

In the years since, Shaun's cleaned up his act, his look and gotten back into Hollywood ... landing a movie gig and doing stand-up comedy.

Looks like Shaun's got a pretty good support system too.

Kim Kardashian is adding executive producer to her never-ending resume ... for a documentary series centered on Elizabeth Taylor -- and she'll be starring in it, too!

Yes, you heard right ... after obsessing over Marilyn Monroe for a while -- see the whole dress thing -- the reality star has found a new infatuation with the late and great Hollywood icon -- jumping on board the new BBC Arts 3-parter, "Elizabeth Taylor: Rebel Superstar."

Kim, who conducted Taylor's last interview ever before her 2011 passing, will be quizzed about her personal relationship with the late legend for the doc -- and she's already gushed in a statement the actress' life story proved to her you can keep evolving and have different chapters in life ... something she's certainly applied to her own fame game.

In fact, there's probably no one better for the gig, if we're being honest ... Kim's embedded herself at the forefront of celeb culture today, just like Elizabeth once did in her heyday ... and it's pretty much a given that Kim's romances, trendsetting ways and businesses will be studied by future generations.

But for now ... Elizabeth and how she created the celeb blueprint during Hollywood's Golden Age is the main focus -- and Kim is partially in the driver's seat to bring it to life.

Never-before-heard audio tapes, interviews, unseen TV footage and rich archival movie footage will be used in the doc, which will delve into her 8 marriages, diamonds, and addictions as well as all the hats she wore as an actor, rebel, business mogul and activist.

The doc from Oscar-winning production firm Passion Pictures won't rely solely on Kim's vision ... Kari Lia and Hamish Fergusson will also serve as EP. It will air on UK's BBC Two and BBC iPlayer -- a U.S. network has yet to be confirmed.

Jamie Dornan says he hid out in the countryside after feeling ridiculed over some poor reviews for "Fifty Shades of Gray."

The actor, who played Christian Gray in the film adaption of the erotic novel, says he and his wife shut themselves off from the world when movie critics didn't like the flick.

Jamie told BBC Radio 4's Desert Island Discs he ended up hiding out at 'Fifty Shades' director Sam Taylor-Johnson's home way out in the boonies.

JD says the bad reviews hit hard because they came on the heels of earning "career-altering" award nominations for his work in BBC's "The Fall" ... basically, going from high praise to ridicule.

Despite hate from film critics, 'Fifty Shades' was a huge hit at the box office.

Jamie says the 2nd and 3rd movies were greenlit overnight, adding ... "It's a strange thing because there's a bit of ridicule here and I'm now contracted to do two more, knowing that there will be much more damnation to come."

He's gone on to act in a bunch of movies and TV shows since 'Fifty Shades' ... but Jamie says he can't escape his past. Even when he gets good reviews now, he says critics still reference his infamous role.
