Anna Kendrick Splits from Edgar Wright

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Break-ups,

Edgar Wright and Anna KendrickAnna Kendrick has split from director Edgar Wright.

The 'Pitch Perfect' actor had been dating Edgar since 2009 after he directed her in the movie Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, but the pair have now called time on their relationship because they found it difficult to maintain a long distance romance with Anna based in Los Angeles and Edgar in London.

"Anna and Edgar really love each other, but the relationship ended amicably. They're both great, funny people," a source said.

Anna spent a great deal of time in London during the course of their relationship and is a fan of all things British, recently revealing she craves English tea: "Every time I go to England the first thing I do is have tea. I crave it to the point where I panic, 'What am I going to do when I get home? I don't have a kettle.' But then the craving disappears - it's like something's pumped into the air."

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Drugs, Drunk, Meltdowns,

Jim Sheridan and Colin FarrellJim Sheridan admires how Colin Farrell turned his life around. The Seven Psychopaths actor checked into rehab in 2006 after his partying got out of control and director and close friend Jim admits Colin was on course to become the "next mess up" before he got clean.

Speaking at the eighth annual Oscar Wilde: Honoring the Irish in Film party at Lost producer J.J Abrams' Bad Robot Productions in Santa Monica on Thursday, Jim told BANG Showbiz, "Colin is impressive, not just as an actor but as a person. We all know he had his ups and downs and there was a time when he was going to be the next mess up but he left it all behind him and became a great lad."

Jim also believes it is the 36-year-old actor's likeability that has helped him bounce back and says everyone can relate to his problems. "In Ireland we admire Daniel Day Lewis and respect Liam Neeson but somewhere inside us we love Colin, because we're just waiting for him to f**k up you know. We're just waiting for him to fall in the s**t and be like us. 'Talent and good looks help when you're trying to make it in the entertainment industry, Colin has them in spades. Deep down he is such a great guy and it comes across on screen, he has that charisma that just comes across. The first time he was ever on screen he was a star. You see it."

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Dating,

Rosario Dawson and Danny BoyleRosario Dawson is "deeply in love" with Danny Boyle.

The Sin City actress ditched plans to spend New Year's Eve in Los Angeles with friends in order to jet off on a romantic vacation to Barbados with the Slumdog Millionaire director and she has told friends the couple are crazy for each other.

"Rosario cancelled her planned party with just a few days' notice, saying she is deeply in love with Danny and that he hates Los Angeles and told her they'd have more fun in Barbados. I was like, 'Wow,' when she said they were running off together. The queen stunt at the Olympics has made him a total international icon, but they aren't the likeliest couple. She's gorgeous and he's not exactly an Adonis and there's this 23-year age gap. But they're really serious about each other," a source said.

Despite their age gap, Rosario, 33 and 56-year-old Danny have a great deal in common. "She's not your typical selfish Hollywood actress. She grew up in a New York squat and Danny's dad was a labourer. Politically, they are on the same page and I guess it doesn't hurt that Danny thinks Rosario is very sexy," the insider added.

Posting a link to an article about the engagement on the Huffington Post, she tweeted, "George Lucas, Mellody Hobson Engaged: 'Star Wars' Director, Businesswoman Set To Marry ....Congratulations Dad & Mellody!:) (sic)."

This will be the first marriage for Mellody, who is the president of Chicago-based investment management firm, Ariel Investments LLC and the second for George, whose union with Marcia Lucas lasted from 1969 to 1983.

Last year, George made the decision to sell Lucasfilm to Disney because he felt it was time to retire from the day-to-day running of the company and wants the Star Wars franchise - which comprises of six movies and spin-off cartoons - to continue after his death. "For the past 35 years, one of my greatest pleasures has been to see Star Wars passed from one generation to the next. It's now time for me to pass Star Wars on to a new generation of filmmakers. I've always believed that Star Wars could live beyond me, and I thought it was important to set up the transition during my lifetime," he said in a statement.

The Twilight Saga actress recently moved out of the LA house she shared with co-star and boyfriend Robert Pattinson after she confessed to cheating on him with married director Rupert Sanders and has fled to the California home of dad John Stewart and mom Jules Mann-Stewart for support.

"[Her parents] feel Kristen has really embarrassed herself and don't blame Rob for not calling her back. This is not the Kristen they know," a source told US Weekly.

Kristen, 22, has also been asking her Panic Room co-star Jodie Foster for advice. "As soon as she heard the news, Jodie contacted Kristen to offer her support. They have been close friends since they starred opposite each other in the 2002 movie Panic Room, and Jodie is a mother-like figure to her. Jodie told Kristen to take no notice of the media bashing and said if she wanted to cry her heart out to her she's always available. Jodie loved Rob and is disappointed with Kristen for cheating on him. However, she knows at 22, she's still very young and unfortunately people make mistakes in life. She thinks Kristen will learn from this and will only grow into a more mature person because of it," a source said.
