Dakota Johnson's new superhero movie bombed at the box office -- but she's not trippin' ... 'cause the water in Mexico is fine, especially with her boyfriend right next to her.

The actress stripped down to a white halter neck-style swimsuit as she cooled off with her man Chris Martin in the beachy waters of Puerto Vallarta Sunday -- continuing her IDC tour by proving not even a major film flop was gonna ruin her good time.

The couple could be seen recharging on a sunlounger ... before Dakota dried off with a towel after a refreshing dip in the ocean.

Now, some may argue that DJ, perhaps, fled to Mexico to avoid all the 'MW' noise after it tanked this weekend. However, given her unbothered promo tour -- where she even admitted she hadn't watched the film much to the dismay of comic book fans -- something tells us she probably didn't even register how poorly it was received ... by fans and critics alike.

Safe to say ... Dakota didn't really put her best foot forward promoting the film -- at least on the face of it -- and the figures speak for themselves. Whether she's to blame for any of it though ... well, that's anyone's guess.

The running total for the six-day holiday weekend -- beginning Valentine's Day and ending on President's Day -- was just $25.8 million domestically and about the same amount globally ... definitely not up to par for a major superhero flick opening.

In fact, The Hollywood Reporter put it down as the worst opening for a Sony movie featuring Spider-Man-related characters ... and the consensus seems to be the same across the board.

¡Alerta, fanáticos de los Beatles! Sam Mendes acaba de anunciar que dirigirá cuatro películas de la banda, cada una desde la perspectiva de cada uno de sus miembros, y se supone que todas ellas saldrán el mismo año.

El famoso cineasta fue contratado para dirigir lo que solo puede llamarse como una empresa de proporciones en el negocio del cine, es decir, hacer cuatro largometrajes de un Beatle diferente: Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, John Lennon y George Harrison.

Sony es el estudio detrás de todo esto, es decir, quien va a financiar y distribuir las películas. Pero no solo eso: los dos Beatles vivos y las familias de los miembros que han fallecido también están a bordo.

Los 4 miembros y sus herederos le han dado a Sam y Sony los derechos sobre su vida y su música para las respectivas películas, y él explica que entrelazará sus historias a través de una intrincada red de narración para mostrar la historia completa de la legendaria banda.

Lo más loco de todo es que Sam y compañía planean estrenar las 4 películas en 2027, lo cual es una locura.

Por cierto, una empresa multimedia que los Beatles comenzaron hace mucho tiempo, Apple Corps Limited, tambiém va a ser socio en la producción, así que todos están unidos en esto.

No hace falta decir que esta sería la primera vez que los Beatles, en general, son representados en una película que no es un documental. En otras palabras, el biopic definitivo de los Beatles ha llegado.

Major Beatles alert -- Sam Mendes will direct four different movies from each band member's perspective ... and all of them are apparently supposed to come out the same year.

The famed filmmaker was announced as being hired to helm what can only be called a massive undertaking in the movie biz -- namely, making four feature-length films ... with each one focused on a different Beatle, including Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, John Lennon and George Harrison.

Sony is the studio getting behind this -- they'll finance and distribute these flicks -- and not just that ... but the two living Beatles and the families of the late members are all on board.

All 4 members/their estates have given Sam and Sony the life and music rights for the respective scripted films -- and what he says he'll do is intertwine all their stories in an intricate web of storytelling to bring the band's full legendary history to life on the big screen.

The craziest part ... Sam and co. plan on releasing all 4 films in 2027, which is crazy.

BTW, a multimedia company the Beatles started way back when -- Apple Corps Limited -- is going to be a partner in producing these ... so yeah, everyone's coming together for this.

It goes without saying ... this will be the first time the Beatles, at large, are depicted in a film as a unit that wasn't a doc. In other words -- the definitive Beatles biopic(s) has arrived.

Sylvester Stallone dice que no le aconseja a los actores que hagan sus propias acrobacias en el mundo del cine, y 7 cirugías deberían servir de advertencia... ¿Escuchaste, Tom Cruise?

La legendaria estrella de acción hizo la revelación en un próximo episodio de su reality show de Paramount, "The Family Stallone", donde dijo que se había sometido a más de media docena de cirugías de espalda para hacerle frente a una lesión que sufrió en el set de "The Expendables" en 2010.

Básicamente, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin -que también está en la película- estaba golpeando el cuerpo de Sly en el set, y el Sly realmente estaba absorbiendo los golpes, yendo toma tras toma tras toma.

Hice cosas estúpidas. Estaba dirigiendo "Expendables" y, como un idiota, estaba haciendo la toma diez, la toma que fuera, y recuerdo un golpe y realmente pude sentir un "bang". Steve lo sabía. Nunca me recuperé de "Expendables 1". Después de esa película, nunca volví a ser físicamente el mismo".

Sly añade: "Le he advertido a la gente... no hagas tus propias acrobacias".

Stallone se fracturó el cuello y necesitaba una placa de metal insertado para estabilizar las cosas, y como señala en broma... su próximo papel podría ser Quasimodo en una versión del "Jorobado".

Donnell Rawlings lost it on fellow comic Corey Holcomb at a comedy club this weekend -- and it all seems to have stemmed from an insult the latter hurled at DR.

This wild scene unfolded Sunday night at the Laugh Factory here in Los Angeles -- where Donnell went up to do a set ... and Corey went on after him when we're told he started hurling wild claims and barbs at Donnell and Dave Chappelle's expense.

Donnell tells TMZ he wasn't going to let Corey torch his close friend -- the two of them were on "Chappelle's Show" together back in the day -- so he confronted him over it.

That argument is what you see here on video, obtained by TMZ, with Donnell going absolutely ballistic on Corey -- whom you can hear calling DR "mild" and a lame funny man.

You can also hear Corey questioning Donnell's street cred ... and Donnell was ready to defend himself and his rep -- which he did from the audience level, right in front of everybody. Indeed, it must've been pretty surreal to see play out live.

Now, Donnell claims another inflammatory comment that Corey made played into how angry he got -- namely, Corey allegedly saying that anyone in comedy who has 3 movies or more under their belt has had to perform fellatio on someone in the biz.

The reason Donnell says he got as fired up -- in addition to feeling insulted and hearing his friends get insulted -- is because he has 3 movies, and he insists he's never done anything like that in his career.

BTW, this beef between Donnell, Corey and Dave runs pretty deep -- Corey recently did a podcast where he trashed DC ... and suggested he simply wasn't funny, let alone a legend.

In terms of how this ended, Donnell tells us he ended up walking away from the situation before things escalated further. However, he says he'd still like to hash things out with Corey in a more calm setting and hopefully put their differences aside.

Sylvester Stallone says he doesn't advise actors to do their own stunts in the movie biz ... and 7 surgeries oughta serve as a warning -- you listening, Tom Cruise???

The legendary action star made the revelation in an upcoming episode of his Paramount reality show, "The Family Stallone," where he said he'd undergone more than half a dozen back surgeries to deal with an injury he suffered on the set of "The Expendables" back in 2010.

Basically, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin -- who's also in the movie -- was body-slamming Sly on set ... and the dude was actually absorbing the blows, going take after take after take.

He says, "I did stupid stuff. I was directing 'Expendables' and like an idiot I’m doing take ten, take whatever, and I remember one slam and I could actually feel one bang. Steve knew. I never recovered from Expendables 1. After that film, it was never physically the same."

Sly adds .. "I’ve warned people -- don’t do your own stunts."

SS fractured his neck and needed a metal plate inserted to stabilize things -- and as he jokingly notes ... his next role might be Quasimodo in a 'Hunchback' flick.

While he might be discussing it in jest on his show -- the injuries/surgeries are quite serious ... apparently, Sylvester's doctors have told him he might need artificial discs popped into his lower spine down the line, and his wife Jennifer Flavin says on the show it's tough on the family.

Más recientemente, interpretó al capitán Chris Pike en la serie de Star Trek "Discovery, Short Treks" y a Black Bolt en "Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Madness".

At 28 years old, 2002 was a career high for American actor Anson Mount who found much success on the big screen with the big dogs in Hollywood like Britney Spears in "Crossroads" and Robert De Niro in "City By The Sea".

From movies to TV shows, Anson portrayed Jim Steele on the NBC series "Conviction" back in 2006 and starred as Cullen Bohannon on the western drama series "Hell On Wheels" in 2011.

Most recently, he played Captain Chris Pike on Star Trek's "Discovery, Short Treks" and Black Bolt in "Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Madness".

Cocoa Brown's home burned down in a devastating fire this week -- and her friends are now coming together to help her out ... understandable when you see the extent of the damage.

The actress/comedian -- famous from "For Better or Worse," and lots of other shows and movies -- suffered a massive blow Sunday when flames overtook her entire property in Fayetteville, GA ... where she lives with her young son, Phoenix.

In terms of how this even happened, sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Cocoa believes a lit candle may have fallen into some clothes in the house -- and by the time the fire alarm went off ... CB ran to the room, but it was quickly becoming an inferno.

We're told Cocoa tried her best to put out the fire with an extinguisher she had on hand -- but the fire started overtaking the whole house ... and she had to escape while she could.

Our sources say Cocoa was able to get her kid and her pets ... and they fled the home with nothing but the clothes on their backs -- and we're told they're lucky they made it out OK.

In the aftermath ... Cocoa's loved ones have started a GoFundMe for her -- with a goal of $50,000 -- and so far, a lot of people have come out to support her during this trying time.

Cocoa is a working actress and comedian, and while she has worked A LOT -- with over 60 acting credits to her name, plus a ton of comedy specials as well -- having your house go up in flames and it becoming as damaged as it clearly did here is a major setback for her.

As the GFM rightly notes ... "Cocoa Brown has brought laughter and light to countless lives with her talent and humor. Now, it's our turn to rally around her and show our support in her time of need. Together, let's shine a beacon of hope and happiness in this time of darkness."

A contestant on "Love Is Blind" is getting dragged for saying she looks like Megan Fox ... 'cause the internet doesn't see the resemblance, and neither does her TV fiancé.

In the latest season of the hit Netflix dating show ... Chelsea Blackwell -- one of the ladies featured as moving out of the pods -- casually reveals Megan is her celeb doppelgänger ... which piques the interest of the man she's conversing with through a wall, Jimmy Presnell.

Of course, Chelsea and Jimmy can't see each other as they converse at first -- that's the whole premise behind 'LiB' -- and at one point, they start talking about their appearances when Chelsea asks Jimmy if he ever gets told he looks like a celebrity.

Jimmy says, "Yeah, I do" ... before Chelsea tells him she often gets compared to "one person" during her job as a flight attendant.

Chelsea made sure to note she doesn't see the resemblance beyond sharing dark hair and blue eyes, warning Jimmy not to get excited before saying ... "It's uh, I don't even know if it's MGK's wife or his girlfriend."

Jimmy perks up and asks ... "Megan Fox? You're saying you look like Megan Fox?" He smiles and asks Chelsea, "I mean ... can we get married?"

However, when Chelsea and Jimmy finally come face-to-face for the first time after getting engaged in their pods, he admits to the cameras ... "She definitely lied to me about some, uh, how she looked."

Now, the internet is having a field day at the couple's expense ... blasting Chelsea for bringing up the Fox comparison and ripping Jimmy for seemingly popping the question based off that alone.

Some folks are giving Chelsea the benefit of the doubt and twisting themselves into knots saying there is some resemblance -- but the general consensus online seems to be ... there's no way Chelsea is a Megan Fox look-alike, not by a long shot.

For his part, Jimmy says on the show ... "At the end of the day, it doesn’t really matter. I am very attracted to her. I can work with that."

Chelsea told Access Hollywood that producers cut out Jimmy's celeb doppelgänger ... she says he told her he looks like NFL star Christian McCaffrey.

Meanwhile, the girl Jimbo ended up passing on in picking Chelsea is an absolute smoke show -- Ms. Jessica Vestal.

They're already teasing bringing her back to show Jimmy what he missed out on.

A BBC reporter is getting blasted as homophobic for grilling Andrew Scott over Barry Keoghan's nude scene in "Saltburn" -- questioning him at the BAFTA's, of all places.

BBC entertainment correspondent Colin Paterson thought it was cool to ask Andrew -- who's gay -- his reaction to Barry's naked dance sequence in "Saltburn" -- and you can see AS's uncomfortable response in the clip, which is cringe-worthy, to say the least.

Scott laughs and shakes his head at first ... trying to navigate around the awkward question by saying he doesn't want to spoil the movie for anyone who hasn't seen it yet. He does play along a little though, saying the scene was great.

But, Colin kept pushing it ... continuing to say, "There was a lot of talk about prosthetics ... how well do you know him?"

The insinuation behind the question proved too much for Andrew, who quickly stepped out from the camera shot ... with CP finally registering it was "too much." It took him that long to realize??!

CP's interview with AS had people fuming online, with one person writing on X: "This is frankly disgusting. Andrew Scott is there to support his multiple nominated film and THIS is what you ask? Then when he looks visibly uncomfortable the guy carried on. Truly horrid. #BAFTAs."

Another wrote ... "This is appalling: presenter Colin Paterson "interviewing" brilliant Andrew Scott, & asking about a fellow actor's genitals (in a film Andrew is not even in). Because Andrew is also Irish, like Barry Keoghan? Because he's gay? Baffling & insulting to both of these talented actors."

The BBC has yet to respond to the criticism ... and Colin also hasn't addressed his misstep.

As for Andrew, he clearly handled the off-guard moment with grace ... especially considering he was there to promote his movie "All Of Us Strangers" ... which sadly didn't win any of the 6 noms it was up for.

Una concursante de "Love Is Blind" está siendo criticada por decir que se parece a Megan Fox, porque en Internet no le ven el parecido, y tampoco su prometido televisivo.

En la última temporada del exitoso programa de citas de Netflix, Chelsea Blackwell -una de las damas que está en competencia- reveló que Megan es su doppelgänger famoso, lo cual despiertó el interés del hombre con el que está conversando, Jimmy Presnell.

Chelsea y Jimmy no pueden verse mientras conversan al-esa es toda la premisa- y en un momento dado, empezaron a hablar de sus apariencias cuando Chelsea le pregunta a Jimmy si alguna vez le han dicho que se parece a una celebridad.

Jimmy responde: "Sí, claro", junto antes de que Chelsea le diga que a menudo la comparan con "una persona" durante su trabajo como azafata de vuelo.

Chelsea se aseguró de señalar que no ve el parecido más allá de compartir el pelo oscuro y los ojos azules, advirtiéndole a Jimmy que no se emocionara antes de decir: "Ni siquiera sé si es la esposa de Machine Gun Kelly o su novia".

Jimmy se anima y pregunta: "¿Megan Fox? ¿Estás diciendo que te pareces a Megan Fox?". Él sonríe y le pregunta a Chelsea, "Quiero decir, ¿podemos casarnos?"

Sin embargo, cuando Chelsea y Jimmy finalmente se encontraron cara a cara por primera vez después de comprometerse, él admite frente a las cámaras: "Ella definitivamente me mintió acerca de, eh, cómo se veía".

Ahora, el Internet está teniendo un día de campo a expensas de la pareja, arremetiendo contra Chelsea por traer a colación la comparación Fox y criticando a Jimmy por comportarse de manera superflua.

Algunas personas le están dando a Chelsea el beneficio de la duda y se retuercen en nudos diciendo que hay algún parecido, pero el consenso general en línea parece ser que no hay manera de que Chelsea y Megan Fox se parezcan en algo.

Por su parte, Jimmy dice: "Al final del día, realmente no importa. Me siento muy atraído por ella. Puedo trabajar con eso".

Chelsea le dijo a Access Hollywood que los productores cortaron el doppelgänger famoso de Jimmy, ella dice que él le dijo que se parece a la estrella de la NFL Christian McCaffrey.

Mientras tanto, la chica terminó eligiendo Jimmy fue la señorita Jessica Vestal.

Ya están bromeando con traerla de vuelta para mostrarle a Jimmy lo que se perdió.

Un periodista de la BBC ha sido tachado de homofóbico por interrogar a Andrew Scott sobre la escena del desnudo de Barry Keoghan en "Saltburn", precisamente en los BAFTA.

El corresponsal de entretenimiento de la BBC Colin Paterson pensó que sería genial preguntarle a Andrew -que es gay- por la secuencia del baile desnudo de Barry en "Saltburn", y se puede ver la respuesta incómoda de Andrew en el clip, que es bastante cringe por decir lo menos.

Scott se ríe y sacude la cabeza al principio, tratando de asimilar la pregunta, diciendo que no quiere estropear la película para cualquier persona que no lo haya visto todavía. Sin embargo, dice que la escena fue genial.

Colin siguió insistiendo y continuó diciendo: "Se habló mucho de las prótesis: ¿Lo conoces bien?".

La insinuación detrás de la pregunta resultó ser demasiado para Andrew, que rápidamente salió de cuadro, y Colin finalmente registrando que era "demasiado". ¿Tanto tardó en darse cuenta?

La entrevista de Colin con Andrew hizo que mucha gente eche humo en línea, con una persona escribiendo en X: "Esto es francamente repugnante. Andrew Scott está allí para apoyar su película nominada en varias ocasiones ¿y ESTO es lo que dices? Luego, cuando parece visiblemente incómodo, el tipo continúa. Verdaderamente horrible. #BAFTAs".

Otro escribió: "Esto es atroz: el presentador Colin Paterson "entrevistando" al brillante Andrew Scott, & preguntando por los genitales de un compañero actor (en una película en la que Andrew ni siquiera sale). ¿Porque Andrew también es irlandés, como Barry Keoghan? ¿Porque es gay? Desconcertante e insultante para estos dos talentosos actores".

La BBC aún no ha respondido a las críticas y Colin tampoco ha abordado su paso en falso.

En cuanto a Andrew, claramente manejó el momento con gracia, especialmente teniendo en cuenta que estaba allí para promocionar su película "All Of Us Strangers", que lamentablemente no ganó ninguna de las 6 nominaciones a las que optaba.

Los People's Choice Awards y los BAFTA no coincidieron este año. Los ganadores han sido muy diferentes, lo que demuestra que la temporada de premios será muy impredecible.

Margot Robbie se pavoneó como la Mejor Actriz por "Barbie" en los PCA en Los Ángeles, mientras que Emma Stone se llevó el mismo honor por "Poor Things" en los BAFTA del Reino Unido, además, ambos premios se llevaron a cabo el domingo.

Luego tenemos Mejor Actor... Ryan Gosling Ken-ergizó su camino a la victoria en la costa oeste, mientras que al otro lado del charco, Cillian Murphy se llevó el premio por "Oppenheimer".

Como mejor película, "Oppenheimer" ganó en los BAFTA, mientras que "Barbie" arrasó en los PCA.

La dirección de Christopher Nolan en "Oppenheimer" le valió un trofeo en la capital británica, pero curiosamente no había una categoría de dirección en los PCA -aunque si la hubiera, es seguro decir, que iría a, redoble de tambores, por favor, ¡Greta Gerwig por "Barbie!".

De hecho, la vida en plástico fue tan fantástica para "Barbie" en los People's Choice que se llevó la mayoría de los premios a los que optaba. Sin embargo, la película no tuvo suerte en los BAFTA, donde perdió sus cinco nominaciones y quedó completamente excluida.

Por supuesto, los ganadores de los People's Choice son elegidos por la gente común -un concurso de popularidad, en realidad- en contraste con los miembros de la academia y teniendo en cuenta los números récord que "Barbie" obtuvo el verano pasado, no es de extrañar que reinara en el evento.

Un tipo cualquiera se coló en el escenario de los BAFTA, donde Christopher Nolan y otros responsables de "Oppenheimer" se encontraban tras una importante victoria, y los directores del evento están cabreados.

Este incómodo momento se produjo el domingo durante la gran gala de premios británica -básicamente los Oscar para el Reino Unido- cuando "Oppenheimer" ganó el premio a la Mejor Película y un grupo de miembros del reparto y el equipo subieron a aceptarlo.

Obviamente, Nolan subió al escenario, al igual que Cillian Murphy y otros productores de la película, pero hubo un rezagado que subió al escenario y definitivamente no era su sitio.

El tipo sobresalía simplemente de pie en silencio en la parte posterior del grupo y sin pestañear, manteniendo su compostura y manteniendo la fachada. Nadie dijo nada acerca de su presencia, incluyendo Cillian, que estaba justo a su lado.

El discurso de aceptación llegó y se fue, y este bromista en realidad no causó mucha escena en absoluto, pero eso no quiere decir que la gente BAFTAs no estaban enojados, porque estaban.

Un representante de la organización dijo: "Un bromista de los medios sociales fue retirado por la seguridad anoche después de unirse a los ganadores del premio final en el escenario - estamos tomando esto muy en serio, y no desean concederle ninguna publicidad al comentar más ".

No lo nombran, pero es bastante fácil de encontrar en línea - el tipo va por el nombre de Lizwani ... y él hace esta mierda con bastante frecuencia. Se ha colado en varias galas de premios en Gran Bretaña a lo largo de los años... y a menudo lo documenta en sus canales sociales.

The People's Choice Awards and the BAFTAs weren't on the same page this year ... with such different winners, it just goes to show -- awards season is unpredictable as hell.

Margot Robbie strutted away with Best Actress for "Barbie" at the PCAs in L.A while Emma Stone snagged the same honor for "Poor Things" at the UK's BAFTAs -- both of which went down on Sunday, BTW.

Then we have Best Actor ... Ryan Gosling Ken-ergized his way to victory on the west coast, while across the pond, Cillian Murphy walked away with the prize for "Oppenheimer."

For Best Film, "Oppenheimer" won at BAFTAs, while "Barbie" stole the show at the PCAs.

Christopher Nolan's directing for "Oppenheimer" earned him a trophy in the British capital, but interestingly there wasn't a directing category at the PCAs -- but if there was, it's safe to say, it'd go to, drumroll please ... Greta Gerwig for "Barbie!!"

In fact, life in plastic was so fantastic for "Barbie" at the People's Choice that it walked away with most of the awards it was up for. But, the movie couldn't catch a break at the BAFTAs ... losing out on all five of its nominations and getting completely shut out.

Of course, the People's Choice winners are picked by average everyday folks -- a popularity contest, really -- in contrast to the academy members ... and given the record-breaking numbers "Barbie" pulled last summer, it's no surprise it reigned supreme at the event.
