Zendaya is a no-fly zone for almost all of the major fashion houses as long as her stylist Law Roach is calling the shots ... because he remembers which designers turned her down, and he won't let them forget it.

Law poured all sorts of tea when he was on "The Cutting Room Floor" podcast -- for instance, why Zendaya doesn't wear Chanel, Saint Laurent, Dior or Gucci when she's making her grand entrances to fashion events and movie premieres.

He explained that early in Z's career -- he's been dressing her since 14 -- he'd try to get big designers to work with her. He says, "I would write [to] the big five… and they would all say no. Try again next year. She’s too green. She’s not on our calendar."

Christy Martin's happy Sydney Sweeney's lacing up her boxing gloves ... saying she's thrilled Syd's playing her in a new biopic, and she wants to make sure her ring moves look authentic.

The boxing legend tells TMZ ... she's excited for Syd's performance, especially because she has a background in MMA and combat sports -- and says the actor's performance can prove dynamite comes in small packages!

Martin maintains she had no say in casting, and while she hasn't spoken to Sweeney yet ... she's anxious to let her know how honored she is she's taking the role.

Christy says she'll definitely be involved with Sydney's boxing training, specifically to help the star with her left hook ... giving her championship-level tools for the flick.

Joel McHale says the "Community" movie's probably shooting soon, lifting fans' spirits ... but, he's not sharing the set with Chevy Chase anytime soon.

We caught up with the actor in L.A. Friday ... and, we had to ask him about the flick fans have wanted since the show went off the air back in 2015.

JM says the time's finally come 'cause they're shooting the movie either in the fall or early next year ... though he qualifies that a bit since the movie's been promised a couple times before.

Martin Scorsese might have the follow-up to his classic "Raging Bull" ... 'cause apparently, he's living with a raging dog -- one that maimed his longtime collaborator.

Paul Schrader -- a legendary Hollywood screenwriter and director -- spoke with Variety to promote his new flick "Oh, Canada," and revealed he had a fearsome run-in with Marty's dog which pulled a move worthy of a "Goodfellas" gangster.

The way Schrader tells it ... he went over to Scorsese's crib in December for dinner -- and, when he went to pet a little Scottish terrier, it went full Cujo and bit him, ripping off and eating part of his thumb!

Hunter Biden reportedly has a new documentary in the works all about his life -- and now, it looks like Sean Penn has entered the chat ... who's a bit of a doc head himself these days.

The President's embattled son -- who's in the middle of a criminal case right now, and who'll be going to trial soon on gun-related charges -- was photographed out in Malibu Thursday, cozying up next to none other than the Oscar winner ... and they were chopping it up.

The pics were taken outside of Soho House, a social club there, and it looks like SP was enjoying a smoke while HB was trying to go somewhat incognito with shades and a hat.

Sydney Sweeney is all set to play a famous female boxer -- something she says she can't wait to morph into ... so, get ready to see her way differently than what you're used to!

The actress has been tapped to play brawler Christy Martin in a new biopic -- and yes, she's gonna have to get in fighting shape for the lead role ... which will likely see her bloodied and bruised, the way CM used to be in her heyday when she would brawl in the ring.

Sydney is ready to take on the challenge, as she shared with Deadline that she's prepared to tap into her sporty roots for the role.

Garfield may hate Mondays, but a couple theatergoers at "The Garfield Movie" hated each other more ... getting into an all-out brawl, with one of the guys being a pro boxer!

This wild video is making the rounds online -- and it captures the moment in a Spanish movie theater many are calling a real "cat fight" ... kicking off when a man in green athletic pants makes his way toward his waiting adversary at the bottom of the stairs.

People are trying to hold the guy back, but he gets through and the two dudes start going at it -- and the man who called out his opponent in green probably regrets it pretty quick.

11:19 AM PT -- Tyrese Gibson's ex-wife Norma Mitchell just upped the ante in her legal war with him -- now running to court in search of a temporary restraining ... bringing these same claims in her defamation suit as the crux for her argument on why she needs court-ordered protection, ditto for their daughter.

In her docs, obtained by TMZ, Norma says the IG posts Tyrese has been throwing up are grounds for harassment -- and she's asking the court to force him to take them down. She's also asking that he be ordered to refrain from talking about them online, plus ... she wants a judge to make him pay for therapy sessions pertaining to all this, and it adds up to a lot.

A judge has yet to rule on her TRO request.

American actress Mindy Sterling was in her early 40's when she was cast to play the screaming sidekick Frau Farbissina -- who would hang around Dr. Evil's evil lair and start trouble around the meeting room -- in the 1997 comedy "Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery."

Mindy shared the big screen with none other than Mike Myers playing the womanizer, partier and British spy, Austin Powers/Dr. Evil and Verne Troyer as Austin Power's best friend and right-hand man.

In 1999, Sterling reprised her role in "Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me" and again for "Austin Powers in Goldmember" in 2002.

Other big celebrities like Beyonce, Will Ferrell and Britney Spears tapped into this popular franchise too!

"Yeah Baby, Yeah!"

Kristen Stewart says "Barbie" alone can't undo ancient systems of oppression ... arguing Hollywood's allowing only a few female creators to make an impact.

The actor-turned-director appears on the cover of this month's Porter magazine ... and, she came out firing in the cover story -- calling H'Wood phony and blasting the industry for elevating a few female stars in the studio system.

Stewart says there's a process of checking off boxes, as if when studios fulfill a few requirements, the patriarchy will be thoroughly done away with in the industry. Here, KS name-drops Robbie and Maggie Gyllenhaal -- claiming studios like to make one of their films to pat themselves on the back and call it a great day for diversity.

Sam Raimi's wife is throwing in the towel on their marriage -- running to court to let a judge know she's ready to end things officially ... this after more than 3 decades together.

Gillian Greene -- a film producer and director herself -- just filed for divorce in Los Angeles ... and according to the docs -- obtained by TMZ -- she's citing irreconcilable differences. They have five children together ... but none of them are minors, so no custody issues here.

In the paperwork, Gillian indicates she wants spousal support -- and is asking to terminate SR's ability to receive alimony from her. When it comes to their assets and other property -- she says they gotta figure out what's what. There's no mention of a prenup on the petition.

Quavo's got all the makings of a movie star ... meaning he has enough talent to make acting his day job -- so says Randall Emmett, who's directing the rapper's latest movie.

TMZ Hip Hop linked with Randall on Wednesday at LAX, and he couldn't stop gloating about Quavo's performance in "Cash Out," a new John Travolta-led action flick -- and, apparently, the ex-Migos front man is a natural on-screen.

Randall says John and Quavo immediately hit it off on the set ... and their chemistry elevated the film.

Michael Douglas doesn't get the need for intimacy coordinators ... calling the new production protocol unnecessary for sex scenes, which he used to handle by himself just fine.

The actor made his stance clear in an interview with Radio Times, as reported by The Telegraph ... where he accused Hollywood execs of making a power grab with the implementation of intimacy coordinators, who come on set/tell actors how to fake do it.

He says ... "It feels like executives taking control away from filmmakers -- but there have been some terrible faux pas and harassment."

"Bad Boys: Ride Or Die" isn't the only heat wave Martin Lawrence will be commanding this summer -- TMZ Hip Hop can reveal the comedic legend is returning to his stand-up roots with a huge tour!!!

Martin's "Y'all Know What It Is!" tour will kick off the laughs July 20 with several other heavy-hitters joining him onstage for the 36-city event.

Deon Cole, DC Young Fly, Jess Hilarious, Adele Givens, B. Simone, Chico Bean, Ms. Pat, Rickey Smiley and more will appear throughout various cities during the nationwide tour.

La nueva película de Johnny Depp ha sido acusada de ser un desastre en términos de taquilla y algunos incluso han dicho que por eso la retiraron, pero es mentira.

Esta es la cuestión, algunos post de redes sociales sugieren que la película de Johnny, "Jeanne du Barry" está siendo retirada de los cines en Estados Unidos, en particular en la zona de Los Ángeles debido a la baja venta de entradas.

Estos tweets están reclamando que la película de Johnny Depp está teniendo muy bajo rendimiento y están adjuntando supuestas capturas de pantalla de los cines vacíos, con solo un asiento o dos llenos en una de las proyecciones de la semana pasada.

Johnny Depp's new movie has been accused of being a stinker in terms of getting asses in seats -- and some have even claimed it's getting yanked because of that ... but it's BS.

Here's the deal ... there are social media posts floating around that suggest Johnny's film, "Jeanne du Barry," has been getting pulled from theaters here in the States -- particularly, ones in the Los Angeles area -- and the implication is that it's due to low ticket sales.

These tweets that are claiming JD's movie is grossly underperforming are attaching purported screenshots of empty theaters ... with only a seat or two filled for one-off showings last week.
