The name's Elba, Idris Elba (sorry).

Bond fans, listen up – it looks like your new 007 is going to be London actor Idris Elba. 

And we're not sure how we feel about the whole thing tbh. 

The 45-year-old's hat has been in the ring for some time now along with the likes of Irish actor Aidan Turner and Brit Tom Hiddleston.

According to Esquire, the idea of Elba as Bond started waaay back in 2014, when a few emails were leaked in the massive Sony hack.

Then-studio co-chair Amy Pascal had let slip to a a colleague that "Idris should be the next Bond."

Idris spent the last few years denying that he wil be taking on the role and even advocated that the next Bond should be female. 

Well, it looks like that won't be the case as it's now being reported that Bond producers are seriously eager for Idris to snap up the part.

According to the Independent, ''director Antoine Fuqua revealed the details of a conversation with Bond producer Barbara Broccoli, in which she said "it is time" for a non-white actor to take on the iconic role. Fuqua discussed who might be next in the running with Broccoli, who's certain the progressive move "will happen eventually", with Idris Elba a reported frontrunner for the role.''

This latest news has obviously got a massive response and a few contrasting opinions to say the least.  

While some people were excited for Idris to step into the role, saying, ''I have seen exactly one bond film since they replaced Roger Moore…..Idris Elba as Bond I gotta see though!'' others had their reservations, especially when it came to the actor's age.

''I wouldn't mind Idris Elba as the new bond I guess, except that he's way too old! Why do they keep casting old Bonds! He's meant to be in his middle 30s!'' one tweeted.  

That's a fair point but remember when people were going mad because Daniel Craig was blonde and they couldn't imagine a fair-haired Bond?

So we say g'luck to Idris if he's successful – he's a fab actor so we're sure he'll smash it anyway.

Has Cheryl Cole switched career paths?

The Girls Aloud singer was seen arriving in Dublin yesterday, according to Xposé.

The reason for her trip was to film a few scenes for the upcoming movie Four Girls and It, based on a Jacqueline Wilson’s children novel.

We are so excited to see the new movie also starring Russell Brand and Michael Caine.

However, this is not Cheryl’s first appearance in a film. We all remember her cameo in What to Expect When You’re Expecting in 2012.

The film will follow the story of four children and a creature they meet on the beach named the Psammead.

This magical creature, voiced by Michael Caine, can grant wishes but the children must beware of the villain, Russel Brand, who tries to snatch the Psammead to use for himself.

Isn't Russell the perfect villain with his long, dark hair and his hot, 'bad guy' vibe?

The Times revealed that the Wexford coastline will double as Cornwall as the setting for the film.

Cheryl’s choice to do a cameo in the children’s film may be inspired by her son Bear, just 15 months old.

We were heartbroken to hear that the young mum recently split from Bear’s father, One Direction star Liam Payne.

The couple still plan on staying on good terms, so that they can focus on making their son’s happiness a priority.

So, keep your eyes peeled for Cheryl and her famous co-stars. We are excited to see if she continues acting!

Sunday is a day for relaxing. We’re sure most of the country has spent the day at the beach, sunbathing in the park, or enjoying a barbecue at home.

Don’t get us wrong, we love the sunny weather, but we must admit that it can leave us feeling exhausted.

After spending the day working on tanning our pasty pale legs, all we want to do is curl up on the sofa with a glass of wine and a classic rom-com on TV.

Thankfully, RTÉ 1 have got our Sunday night movie covered as they are streaming one of Julia Roberts’ best movies tonight.

This 1990 classic has a strong female lead, the dreamy love interest, a kickass soundtrack and a complicated love story, what more could you ask for?

Pretty Woman is one of the most iconic romantic comedies and there’s no doubt that we’ll be tuning in tonight.

The film follows the complicated love story of a millionaire and a prostitute. Gere’s character decides to hire prostitute Vivian, who is the perfect partner to accompany him to lavish work events. Much to his surprise, he starts to develop feelings for her. The pair come from completely different worlds, but as the saying goes, opposites attract.

Pretty Woman has a stellar cast with Julia Roberts and Richard Gere taking on the lead roles. It also stars Jason Alexander, Laura San Giacomo, Ralph Bellamy and Hector Elizondo.

You can watch Pretty Woman on RTÉ1 tonight at 9:30 pm.

We know Christmas is six months away, but we can’t help but feel the tiniest bit excited about this upcoming Netflix movie.

Last Christmas, we were completely obsessed with the popular and incredibly cheesy Netflix film A Christmas Prince. We must admit we tuned into the film more than once over the festive period.

We’re sure you’re going to adore this year’s Netflix original Christmas flick The Princess Switch, starring High School Musical alum Vanessa Hudgens and Nashville star Sam Palladio.

The romantic comedy is all about a Duchess and a commoner who trade places when they realise the uncanny resemblance between them. It sounds like The Parent Trap sprinkled with Christmas cheer and set somewhere a lot more glamorous than a campsite.

However, things get complicated when they both fall in love with men who have no idea who they really are.

Vanessa treated fans to a glimpse of the movie on her Instagram account. She shared a photo with co-star Sam Palladio in full costume.

 

A post shared by Vanessa Hudgens (@vanessahudgens) on

She captioned the photo: “Did someone say a royal wedding? That’s a wrap on THE CHRISTMAS SWITCH. coming to you this holiday season on Netflix.”

The Spring Breakers actress added: “I’m so excited for you guys to see this one.”

Vanessa may have mixed up the title of the movie, but we cannot wait to see her in the Netflix festive flick.

The film may not be released for a couple of months but we’re already daydreaming of cosying up in front of the fire and tuning into The Princess Switch.

Further Spice Girls reunion plans have been revealed, which reportedly includes another movie.

A Spice Girl's feature film has been rumoured to be hitting cinemas next year, in addition to an animated superhero project the women will reportedly voice.

Excitement and rumours have been circulating around the exact details of the Spice Girls reunion we have been promised.

It seems that even the women themselves do not know precisely what is happening.

 

A post shared by Spice Girls (@spicegirls_official) on

Mel B has hinted at a full-on tour, whilst her other band members have carefully avoided committing to anything, denying claims around new music had been on the way or that they would perform at the Royal Wedding next weekend.

One project that seems to have been given the nod is that all five band members have signed the dotted line for a 'superhero-themed' animated movie carrying their iconic 'girl power' message.

 

A post shared by Spice Girls (@spicegirls_official) on

The news comes as Variety reports the girls are keen to voice their own characters in the superhero movie.

"They're fired up about the idea," a source claims.

"The Spice Girls are thinking big in terms of a franchise on a global scale. They’re the most successful girl group on the planet. It’s just what Marvel or Disney needs."

 

A post shared by Spice Girls (@spicegirls_official) on

However, that isn’t all we are in for, reportedly, there will another Spice Girl feature film to look forward to, hitting cinemas and perhaps even the Cannes Film Festival in 2019.

According to The Sun's Dan Wootton, a 'second big movie project' has been lined up and 'pitched to potential production partners'.

It's reportedly going to be a 'tell-all' feature film, which cinema audiences will get to experience.

We for one, cannot wait!

It's been a decade since the last instalment of Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants graced the silver screen, and we have to say, we've been pretty blue without our favourite group of fictional friends. 

However, some news from the cast members ought to cheer up die-hard fans who want to hear more from Tibby, Lena, Carmen and Bridget.

"We just pitched a third movie," Alexis Bledel (Lena) revealed to Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show on April 26.

"I hope it comes together. It would be so great," she gushed, and the announcement sparked excited applause from the audience.

That same day, Blake Lively opened up to Entertainment Tonight about her hopes to once again don that magical denim.

"I think it could really happen," the 30-year-old, who starred as the sporty Bridget, shared.

 

A post shared by AMO IR AL CINE ® (@amoiralcine) on

 

"I think that people who love the movie want to see it. So, I mean, fans have gotten bigger movies made."

Referencing the success of her husband Ryan Reynold's superhero film, Blake said, "Deadpool is all thanks to the fans. So I'm saying we'll do it."

Amber Tamblyn (Tibby) added her own update on the possible third Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants film.

"I realise what I’m about to say regarding the third instalment of the Sisterhood franchise is not enough to break the internet, but certainly could crack it…" the mum-of-one tweeted.

"Alexis is right," she continued, "We’ve been pitching and there is a script. A good one. It’s up to a studio now to make the film. So far, no luck. So keep your fingers crossed, or, knock down their doors with jeans emojis."

America Ferrera (Carmen) hasn't shared an update yet, but we're sure it's en route. 

Until we get more exciting news about this beloved franchise, we'll keep crossing our fingers and sending out those jean emojis.

Their faces have been on the cover of every newspaper and magazine since they announced their engagement, and now Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are set to take over the big screen.

Us television network Lifetime has revealed that a film about Harry and Meghan’s romance is in the works.

The network is currently casting people for the roles of Harry and Meghan, and seriously, where can we audition?

In the past, Lifetime has produced movies about Prince William and Kate Middleton’s relationship, as well as the controversial flick The Murder of Princess Diana.

The next royal film titled Harry & Meghan: The Royal Love Story is set to air before the royal wedding on May 19.

Menhaj Huda is to direct the movie, which follows the beginning of the lovebird’s relationship and will feature how they met, and the secretive first few months of their relationship.

It’ll come as no surprise to hear that their engagement will also feature in the movie, as well as the intense media attention that followed the announcement back in November.

The movie will also look at Meghan’s past, including her former marriage and career as an actress, which she has since given up.

Due to her new role in the royal family, the Suits star has stepped away from Hollywood, and will now focus on official royal engagements with her husband-to-be.

Speaking about the next chapter of his life with Meghan, Prince Harry shared that his beloved mum will be with there with them, thanks to Meghan’s sentimental engagement ring.

He shared, 'The little diamonds either side are from my mother’s jewellery collection to make sure that she’s with us on this – on this crazy journey together.'

We cannot wait to find out more about Harry and Meghan’s love story. The Lifetime film is rumoured to air before May 2018.

The MMA icon is about to find success outside of the octagon, as Universal Studios has just leaked a teaser trailer for an upcoming biopic all about the Irish star. 

The film, aptly titled Notorious, is set to still be in the filming process, to capture the hugely anticipated McGregor vs Mayweather fight.

The film was shot over four years, and is set to document his explosive career and humble beginnings. 

'Notorious is the exclusive, all-access account of Conor’s meteoric rise from claiming benefits and living in his parent’s spare room in Dublin to claiming multiple championship UFC belts and seven figure pay-packets in Las Vegas,' reads the film's description. 

'Featuring unprecedented access, never before seen moments and explosive fight footage, this is the ultimate behind-the-scenes look at a sporting icon and his spectacular rise from the bottom to the very top.'

There is no word yet on when the film will be out, but we can already tell it will be a box office breakthrough.
