Hey Leonardo DiCaprio, Is That You At Rio 2016?
Has Leonardo DiCaprio swapped Wall Street for the streets of Rio? The internet seems to think so! As this year's Olympics 2016 kicked off in Rio, it looks like USA archer Brady Ellison bears more than a striking resemblance to the Oscar-winning actor. From eating the raw liver of a Bison on the Revenant set, Leo certainly likes to take on method acting before a new role, so could the actor be gearing up for a Hunger Games spin-off, with him as a titular archer? Ridiculous theory, we know, but as doppelgängers go, Ellison does look a lot like the Titanic actor.

James Bond Director Dies Aged 93
“You can’t really change the formula, you can merely try to film it your way.” Guy Hamilton once said before his sad passing. Director of four James Bond movies including ‘Goldfinger’, Guy Hamilton has died at the age of 93. Guy was born in Paris and was then educated in England. His introduction to the Film Industry in France made him discover “how a studio worked the hard way”. Hamilton then left France behind him to enlist in the Royal Navy (by way of Paramount News). His films were mostly inspired by the military. His most financially successful film in the 1950s was ‘The Colditz Story’. His other major film ‘A Touch Of Larceny’ got him a sole BAFTA nomination.

James Corden Is Deadpool's New British Sidekick
With the massive success of Deadpool, I had thought that maybe Ryan Reynolds would start to pump the breaks and rest on his laurels a bit. Apparently, I'm not that good at predicting things because he's still at it. This time he's joined by James Corden of The Late Late Show as he tries to pitch some of his ideas for Deadpool's sidekick. I mean, sure, Cable is supposedly going to be in the next movie, but you can't let little details like that stop you from going after your dreams. Granted, James' ideas weren't that solid ranging from Tentakill to Strawberry Short Fuse which is basically just a strawberry that gets angry real quick.
