Christopher Plummer didn’t win an Oscar until he was 82, at which time he won for Beginners. Hell, he didn’t even receive a nomination until he was just about 80. It’s a fact that blows my mind, especially when you consider how unbelievably daring Plummer was throughout his career.... show more

Christopher Plummer (December 13, 1929 – 2021) was a legendary Canadian actor, best known for playing Captain Georg von Trapp in the iconic musical The Sound of Music (1965). In the film, he performed “Edelweiss” (vocals dubbed by Bill Lee), accompanied by Charmian Carr as his daughter. He remains the only Canadian to achieve the prestigious Triple Crown of Acting — winning an Academy Award, Emmy Awards, and Tony Awards. In 2012, Plummer won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for Beginners at age 82, becoming the oldest actor to win an Academy Award (later surpassed by Anthony Hopkins). In 2017, he was nominated for an Oscar for All the Money in the World at age 88, making him the oldest nominee ever in any acting category.

Christopher Plummer only accepted to appear in "Starcrash" (1978) for 2 reasons. One of the reasons being his wish to visit Rome. As long as he landed in Rome, he was even willing to do a p0rn0. He loved the city that much. The other reason was acting alongside Caroline Munro - whom he said was "incredible to look at". Christopher Plummer was paid $10,000 per day. Most of his scenes as the Emperor of the Galaxy were shot in a single day. Here in his own words: "Plummer: [Breathlessly.] 'Starcrash'. Oh, my God. There are two things I can say about that: One, give me Rome any day. I’ll do p0rn0 in Rome, as long as I can get to Rome. [Laughs.] Getting to Rome was the greatest thing that happened in that for me. I think it was only about three days in Rome on that one. It was all shot at once. And the girl… What’s her name? Munro? Interviewer: Caroline Munro. Plummer: Caroline Munro. She was something incredible to look at. That was a great pleasure, too. But beyond those two things… I mean, how can you play the Emperor Of The Universe? What a wonderful part to play. [Laughs.] It puts God in a very dicey moment, doesn’t it? He’s very insecure, God, when the Emperor’s around." (Christopher Plummer's interview with Will Harris, AV Club, 2013 and IMDb)

Matt Damon says Christopher Nolan never tells actors they did a good job. “You just have to imagine he did.” Damon says that pushed him to work even harder, and that Nolan only told him how happy he was with his performance once the film was finished.

Woozi was called an obedient white puppy bc the staff said he almost never expressed anything about himself at all, wouldn’t say he was sick even if he was, wouldn’t say he was having a hard time even if he was struggling. That day during the interview session, he was barely moving and said that he was in a situation where he couldn't move comfortably, but he still participated in 6 performances perfectly, with the brightest smile on his face 🥹 He said that he didn’t like talking about being sick since he was little bc when he talked about it, it felt like he was the only one who was having a hard time while everyone else was also struggling 💔

Michael Caine explained that he had no difficulty crying in that scene of The Dark Knight Rises. He was so deeply invested in his role that he let himself be overwhelmed by emotion. He even said it was one of the hardest scenes of his entire career, because he was playing a man who was “abandoning his son.” Christopher Nolan revealed that he only needed a single take to capture Caine’s performance, as it was so powerful and authentic.

Paddy Pimblett didn’t just beat Michael Chandler. He took his soul in the third round. Nasty knee that split him open, mounted him, then rained elbows like he had a personal grudge. Chandler was a tough guy… until he wasn’t.

Yejun said that when he sang "That One Word, I like you" at the encore concert, he was actually really nervous. The members said his body was shaking so much you could literally see it, but even though his body was shaking his voice didn’t tremble at all ❤️: Yejun hyung told me too, he said he was really nervous but honestly he didn’t seem like that at all 🖤: His body was shaking but there wasn’t a single tremble in his voice 🖤: That kind of nervousness… it didn’t even sound like a live performance. It was literally just like a CD, like a CD-type sound

this story gives me chills!!! 😭😭 Jaafar Jackson was enrolled in acting classes and the pre-requisite was that he remained anonymous so his classmates didn’t know he was a JACKSON and preparing to be Michael until the day he got casted.

In Breaking Bad, Walter realizes he lost his family. To them he no longer exists All that was left was saving Jesse, the closest thing he had to a son When he sacrifices himself, it’s the only time he looks truly at peace “I’ll never see the inside of jail cell” And he didn’t

For some reason, the BBC has decided to give a 26 minute radio platform to a cross-dressing man in Wales to explain how he discovered he was a witch at the same time that he realised he was a woman, which came about because he had a dream about a woman

You guys don’t even understand how delicious this scene was to watch 🫦 She used the jealousy card knowing damn well it would work because she knew about Metin 👀 And Serhat’s reaction??? 🤤 He didn’t even try to hide it, but at the same time he was trying to act all nonchalant 😭 Then boom she made sure he knew she saw right through his jealousy 🌚 That devilish smirk he gave with those little nods??? EXCUSE YOU! Also, the fact that he kept eating and avoided looking at her face 😭 because he knew the second he looked at her, it was game over… Especially because he already got caught. But at the same time that smirk and those little nods said everything… he was partly happy that she knew he was jealous🌚 btw HE DIDN’T EVEN DENY IT!

Ivanka Trump says her fashion brand was earning $800,000,000 a year with a new baby on her hip, then her dad called and said “I need you” “My fashion brand were doing over $800 million in sales annually. I was running all real estate acquisitions and development for the Trump Organization” “I was building the Old Post Office at the same time as I was building Trump Doral, which is 800 acres here in Miami” “I had three young children, very young in one case. My son Theo was literally on my hip, he was 6 months old” “And then my father won the presidency. And he said, ‘I need you.’ He had never spent a night in Washington until his first night in the White House. And he didn’t know anyone…” “He trusted my ability and Jared’s ability… and he asked us to go. This was about a week and a half after he won” “A complete change in trajectory of our whole lives”
