Lost Boys recall Williams
Some of the younger castmates of Robin Williams' 1991 Peter Pan have staged a little reunion organized by production company 22 Vision. The purpose: to pay homage to Williams on the second anniversary of his death. The kids who played the Lost Boys are all adults now. "I think for all of us, [Williams' death] was the death of our childhood," Dante Basco, who played Rufio, tells Entertainment Tonight. "There's sadness there, also there's a lot of space to kind of celebrate one of the most legendary artists of our time." "He kept the set very alive," says James Madio, who portrayed Don't Ask. "He made sure that he had a relationship with each and every one of us." Thomas Tulak (Too Small) chimed in, "It was like his mission to make sure everyone around him is happy and laughing all the time."
As I lay gossiping . . .
Just because Simon Helberg is getting great reviews for his role in Meryl Streep's Florence Foster Jenkins doesn't mean he's too big for The Big Bang Theory. Now in its 10th season, it's expected to stay on the air, says CBS. . . . Star Trek: Discovery, set to premiere on CBS All Access in January, has yet to be cast, but the lead will be female and it will feature a gay character. . . . Criminal Minds star Thomas Gibson, 54, has been suspended from the show after he apparently kicked one of the writers in the leg over creative differences. . . . Despite the poor performance of Sony's $150 million all-female Ghostbusters reboot, rival studio Warner Bros. plans to go ahead with its all-female spinoff of Ocean's Eleven, says the Hollywood Reporter. Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, and Anne Hathaway will star.
Emma Watson: The play is good, too
Should J.K. Rowling fans see the stage production of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, now playing at the Palace Theatre in London?
It certainly has Emma Watson's vote.
"I came in with no idea what to expect and it was AMAZING," the actor who played Hermione Granger in the films writes on Facebook.
"Some things about the play were, I think, possibly even more beautiful than the films. Having seen it I felt more connected to Hermione and the stories than I have since Deathly Hallows came out, which was such a gift."
