Four-time Oscar nominee Julianne Moore has had her share of difficult moments in her career. But she’s taken those opportunities and learned from them—even her days working on soaps.
Will Forte made a name for himself starring on Saturday Night Live. But he’s recently made a career change, starring in several independent films like Alexander Payne’s Nebraska.
I will believe just about any story you tell me about certain actors. For example, Bill Murray randomly joined a kickball game in New York City? Yes, I totally buy that.
Nick Offerman made a career appearing in small roles in sitcom to sitcom for about a decade before gaining steam in the late 2000s, which eventually led to his starring role on the NBC sitcom Parks and Recreation.
James Van Der Beek isn’t too sad that his time on Don’t Trust The B in Apartment 23 is over. He’s picked up a role on a new CBS sitcom and playing himself on the cancelled ABC show did help him put his Dawson days behind him.
Sofia Vergara, who plays Gloria on ABC’s hit comedy Modern Family, doesn’t really object to her portrayal of a typical Latina.
The rabid fans of the once defunct Arrested Development can breathe a sigh of relief when new episodes of the cult classic start airing on Netflix on Sunday. With his other show Onion News Network airing on Amazon, Jeffrey Tambor is becoming a true fan of the Internet age.
In the end, Smash is, at best, an imperfect television series. It took an interesting industry — the behind-the-scenes creation of Broadway productions — and incredibly talented singers, like Megan Hilty, yet somehow failed to make it interesting to general audiences or even Broadway diehards.
Silas Weir Mitchell, who plays Big Bad Wolf Monroe on NBC’s Grimm, isn’t getting too caught up in the ratings hype regarding his successful show.
The television drama Ironside, which was about wheelchair-bound detective Robert T. Ironside, ran for eight seasons in the 1960s and 1970s and starred able bodied actor Raymond Burr.

No one can say that Benedict Cumberbatch isn’t having success in both movies and television these days with Star Trek Into Darkness and Sherlock, but the clearly-enunciating Englishman once blew the chance to conquer a third type of media: video games

Though Star Trek’s original Scotty, James Doohan, was among Star Trek fans’ favorite actors on the original series, many of them were happy when comedic English actor Simon Pegg was cast as Scotty in the 2009 movie reboot of the series.
I’m sure I’m not the only one, but Michael Shannon playing the villain has me more interested in Man of Steel than anything else. That’s because ever since I saw Take Shelter and started watching Boardwalk Empire Michael Shannon has become one of my favorite actors.
Lake Bell has worked steadily in film and television since appearing in her first major role as Alicia Silverstone’s character’s best friend in the short-lived NBC series Miss Match (which I do not remember ever existing, but apparently it did). She has also branched out into writing and directing, but she still remains an actress. She stars in the horror movie Black Rock alongside Katie Aselton, who co-wrote and directed the film.
The gang at Gold Derby talked with Corey Stoll, who played Congressman Peter Russo in the great Netflix series, House of Cards. Stoll is absolutely fantastic in the show and I think he’s the heart of the series.
If you haven’t yet heard of Benedict Cumberbatch– and I do mean “heard” because of his instantly recognizable voice — get ready to see (and hear) a lot more of him.
