Hannah Waddingham's got a long memory ... 'cause she says she's got a mental list of the casting directors who shunned her over the years -- and, she's ready to get the last laugh.

The actress opened up about her Hollywood s*** list during an episode of the "Sunday Sitdown with Willie Geist" ... telling the host there are a ton of people who wouldn't give her the time of day before who now want her in their projects.

But, HW says she's got respect for herself ... saying she consistently turns down work if the offer's coming from someone who disrespected her talent or looks in the past.

Disney's gone off the deep end with their woke messaging and needs to focus on the building blocks of story, so says the director of several Mouse House classics.

John Musker -- who directed the animated versions of "The Little Mermaid," "Aladdin" and "Moana" -- called out the content giant during an interview with El País ... basically saying Disney's gone overboard on getting their message across.

The actor tells TMZ ... he'd love to be a part of "Speed 3," after Sandra and Keanu both expressed an interest in rebooting the franchise. However, Joe -- who played Lieutenant Herb 'Mac' McMahon in the OG -- says there are some big questions that need to be answered before he signs on for any new movie.

He adds ... "'Speed' was a wonderful roller coaster ride; the bus had to careen through the city and jump a gap in a bridge and couldn’t go below 50mph or it would blow up -- what’s 3’s vehicle?"

Glen Powell had a strong reaction to watching "Hidden Figures" the first time ... but, it wasn't exactly a happy one -- admitting he puked after leaving a rough cut of the film.

The way Lane explains it ... when Elton found out he voiced his displeasure, saying he wrote the song because he wanted to have an epic Disney love ballad under his belt -- and "didn't want it to be sung by the rat and the pig."

The iconic "Home Alone" house is up for sale, but it's coming along with a bit of controversy -- 'cause despite realtors' claims, TMZ has learned the movie wasn't shot inside.

Julio Macat -- cinematographer for the 1990 Christmas classic -- tells TMZ ... exterior shots for the movie were filmed at the home now on the market, but they never actually shot scenes inside the home.

Jennifer Lopez might be her own biggest fan -- she definitely looks like it as she poses for selfies in front of her own billboard promoting her own movie! Super meta moment.

The photoshoot didn't stop there ... the star even swung by the Netflix billboard sporting the bold message, "DON'T F WITH JLO" -- a nod to her butt-kicking character in the streamer's new action flick.

Millie Bobby Brown is a married woman -- she reportedly said "I do" to Jon Bon Jovi's son, Jake Bongiovi, in a not just low-key, but at this point, top-secret ceremony.

The iconic "Home Alone" house, which sits in a Chicago suburb, is up for sale -- but you've got to have some seriously deep pockets if you want to make it yours.

The Winnetka, IL home, which sits on just over half an acre, hit the market Friday with a $5.25 million price tag. The home was fully renovated and expanded in 2018, and the current owners who lived there for 12 years took care in maintaining the architectural detail and integrity of the home's most recognizable spaces.

The homeowners, who bought the place in 2012 for $1.585 million, did, however, maintain some of that OG movie magic ... keeping the front of the stately brick crib exactly the same as depicted in the 1990 film, starring Macaulay Culkin, Catherine O'Hara, Joe Pesci, and Daniel Stern.

An award-winning horror short set in Red Lobster never got a proper release because the chain got wind of the flick and told the director to throw it overboard.
