Matty Healy Said He Was ‘Briefly Imprisoned’ In Malaysia For Kissing His 1975 Bandmate

Matty Healy has been in hot water over his trollish antics often enough that he can joke about it pretty effectively, but the punishment he narrowly avoided for one incident was apparently no laughing matter. In July, The 1975’s frontman claimed that the band was banned from Malaysia after he kissed his bandmate Ross MacDonald onstage during their set at the Good Vibes Festival in Kuala Lumpur and later ordered to pay a nearly $3 million fine.

As it turns out, it could have been worse, as Healy recently revealed they were also “briefly imprisoned” by the Malaysian government. While he had previously hinted at the possibility of being imprisoned, saying, “Me and Ross nearly shaved our heads because we thought we were going to prison for being f**s,” during a show in Hawaii, this is the first time he has admitted that the bandmates were detained.

During a concert in Forth Worth, Texas, Healy gave one of his customary addresses, telling the crowd, “If you truly believe that artists have a responsibility to uphold their liberal virtues by using their massive platforms, then those artists should be judged by the danger and inconvenience that they face for doing so, not by the rewards they receive for parroting consensus… Those who took to Twitter to voice their outrage over the 1975’s unwillingness to cater to Malaysian customs would find it abhorrent if the 1975 were to acquiesce to, let’s say, Mississippi’s perspective on abortion or trans rights.”

He also pointed out that the 1975 was brought to Malaysia in spite of their history of snogging onstage. “The 1975 did not waltz into Malaysia unannounced,” he said. “They were invited to headline a festival by a government who had full knowledge of the band with its well-publicized political views and its routine stage show… It should be expected that if you invite dozens of Western performers into your country, they’ll bring their Western values with them. If the very same things which made you aware of them could land them in jail in your country, you’re not actually inviting them to perform. You’re indirectly commanding them to reflect your country’s policies by omission.”

Chet Holmgren Responds To Victor Wembanyama Bowling Him Over For An And-1

Monday night’s tilt between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the San Antonio Spurs was one of the more highly-anticipated preseason games we’ve seen in a while. That’s because it featured the NBA debuts of a pair of uniquely skilled big men in Victor Wembanyama, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, and Chet Holmgren, the No. 2 overall pick in 2022.

The pair went head-to-head in the 122-121 Oklahoma City win, and while you should always be careful to not take too much away from the preseason, the skills that make both of them such exciting prospects were on display. There were also plenty of moments where the two had to guard one another, and at one point in the first quarter, Wembanyama drove towards the rim while Holmgren was defending him, drew contact, finished a layup, and got the and-1 call.

One angle showed that Wembanyama drew the contact by lowering his head and shoulder and bowling Holmgren over, which caught the attention of the Oklahoma City youngster after the game. Holmgren quote tweeted the highlight and basically said that this happened because Wembanyama headbutted him.

Both of the youngsters played limited minutes. Wembanyama had a slightly longer stint, as he had 20 points on 8-for-13 shooting with five rebounds, two steals, and a block in 19 minutes of work. Holmgren, meanwhile, also impressed in his 16 minutes of action, as he scored 21 points on 7-for-10 shooting with nine rebounds, an assist, and a block.

The pair won’t have to wait long to face off against one another during the regular season, as the Thunder host the Spurs on Nov. 14.

‘Heat 2’: Everything We Know About Michael Mann’s Follow-Up To The Pacino-De Niro Heist Drama

When visionary director Michael Mann delivered the epic heist film, Heat, starring powerhouse actors Al Pacino and Robert De Niro, it quickly became heralded as one of the greatest crime dramas of all time. Now, Mann has confirmed that a sequel, Heat 2, will be his next film after finishing work on Ferrari.

Making Mann’s work easier is the fact that he’s already written the story and published it in the novel, Heat 2, which was released last summer. The book was an “obsession” for the writer/director, and Mann is excited to adapt it for the big screen.

Here’s everything we know about Heat 2 as it makes its way towards theaters:

Plot

Heat 2 will be a direct adaptation of the novel written by Michael Mann and Meg Gardiner. Released in August 2022, the book serves as both a prequel and a sequel to the iconic film as it reconnects with both Vincent Hanna and Neil McCauley, who were played by Pacino and De Niro, respectively. Val Kilmer’s Chris Shiherlis also appears.

According to Deadline: “The storyline takes readers back to Chicago in 1988 when McCauley, Shiherlis and their high-line crew are taking scores on the West Coast, the U.S.-Mexico border and in Chicago. At the same time, Hanna is cutting his teeth as a rising star in the Chicago Police Department chasing an ultraviolent gang of home invaders.”

The book also deals with the aftermath of the chaotic bank heist from the original film.

Cast

With Heat 2 focusing on younger versions of De Niro and Pacino’s characters from the first film, there’s already a flurry of speculation of who will get to fill the iconic actors’ shoes. Adam Driver has been rumored to be in contention for the part of Neil McCauley, previously played by De Niro. During a promotional appearance for Ferrari, Mann did not confirm or deny those rumors.

“Perhaps,” Mann told Deadline when asked if Driver is up for the McCauley role. “We don’t talk about that yet. Let me put it this way: Adam and I got along like a house on fire [on Ferrari]. We have the same work ethic – which is pretty intense. We like each other, and we had a great time working together artistically.”

As for the role of Pacino’s Vincent Hanna, the actor already made his choice known back in June 2022.

Timothée Chalamet,” Pacino said at a Q&A panel celebrating Heat‘s 25th anniversary. “I mean, he’s a wonderful actor. Great looks.”

Release Date

Heat 2 does not have an official release date, but Mann has confirmed to Deadline that it will be his next film following the promotional tour for Ferrari.

Trailer

Heat 2 hasn’t entered production or officially begun casting as of this writing, so there’s no official footage or photos from the film. However, there is a trailer for the book, which will be closely adapted by Mann:

Heat 2 is available in bookstores now.

Taylor Sheridan’s ‘Lawmen: Bass Reeves’ Trailer Puts David Oyelowo Into The Boots Of The Legendary U.S. Marshal

The Taylor Sheridan universe is expanding beyond your wildest and most rustic cowboy dreams. Lawmen: Bass Reeves is the latest Western drama from the Yellowstone creator, though this time, it’s a real story being brought to the screen.

Lawmen tells the story of Bass Reeves, one of the first Black U.S. Marshals, and his various internal and external struggles with the intense job. The show stars David Oyelowo as the title character, alongside Donald Sutherland, Dennis Quaid, Forrest Goodluck, Barry Pepper, Grantham Coleman, Demi Singleton, and Lauren E. Banks. Here is the official synopsis:

From Executive Producers Taylor Sheridan and David Oyelowo comes the untold story of the most legendary lawman in the Old West: Bass Reeves. Lawmen: Bass Reeves, follows the journey of Reeves (Oyelowo) and his rise from enslavement to law enforcement as the first Black U.S. Marshal west of the Mississippi. Despite arresting over 3,000 outlaws during the course of his career, the weight of the badge was heavy, and he wrestled with its moral and spiritual cost to his beloved family.

This is Sheridan’s latest series, as he has been busy working on various Yellowstone-related properties, along with the three (or four? maybe five?) other projects in the works. The man sure loves working with cowboy boots.

Lawmen: Bass Reeves will debut on Paramount+ on November 5th. Check out the trailer above.

Elon Musk Reportedly Threatened To ‘Burn The House Down’ If Amber Heard Was Fired From ‘Aquaman 2’

Aquaman is DC’s most fun movie (shout out to the octopus drummer), but it sounds like there was nothing fun about making the sequel. Especially for Amber Heard. Variety reports that the actress, who played Aquaman’s red-haired love interest Mera, was nearly fired from sequel Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom until the world’s richest man, Elon Musk, stepped in.

After the first Aquaman was released to mixed reviews but a robust box office, Warner Bros. and director James Wan “decided to drop the actress from the sequel due to her lack of chemistry with Momoa and sent a letter to her attorney, Karl Austen, informing him of its decision,” according to Variety. Sources say the attempted pink slip was “unrelated” to ex-husband Johnny Depp, who she would soon be involved in an ugly legal battle with, and star Jason Momoa “was not involved in the decision-making.”

Heard wasn’t fired, however, because “her former boyfriend, Elon Musk, had one of his litigators send a ‘scorched-earth letter to Warner Bros. threatening to burn the house down’ if the actress wasn’t brought back for a sequel.” Heard probably felt different about Musk then than she does now, after he shared a private photo of her dressed like a video game character.

Wan has denied that Heard’s role in Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom was “pared down” after her high-profile trial against Johnny Depp, but she’s also not in the trailer much. We’ll found out on December 20, when the sequel finally hits theaters.

Killer Mike Shares A Tender Remix Of ‘Motherless’ Featuring Robert Glasper And Eryn Allen Kane

Killer Mike’s sixth studio album Michael has been out for around four months now, but true to his independent spirit, the Atlanta rapper is still finding new ways to promote his most personal project to date. The latest is a live studio reinterpretation of standout track “Motherless” remixed by Grammy-winning jazz revivalist Robert Glasper. In the video they shared today, Mike, Glasper, and guest vocalist Eryn Allen Kane perform the tender remix in the recording studio, with Glasper’s gentle keys enhancing the loving tone of Mike’s ode to his late mom.

In a statement about the remix, Mike wrote:

Two years ago I was asked to get on a “Black Superhero” by Robert Glasper. The song was incredible and he’d go on to win a Grammy for that album. My only regret was that we weren’t in the same room together when we made it. So when talks of him remixing “MOTHERLESS” came up it was a no brainer — only this time we wanted to be in studio together along with Eryn Allen Kane.

Someone was smart enough to have cameras there capturing us making this tribute to my mother, Druzella Denise Clonts aka OG Mama Niecy and Rob’s mother, Kim Yvette Glasper. Performing this song is never easy. I wept every night on tour.

The outpouring of emotions has been part of healing. To all those who belong to Motherless Club I pray this helps and to all those who are lucky enough to have their mothers: call them!

The song has been a go-to for Mike: On Friday, he performed the track with Glasper and Kane on The Tonight Show.

Former Adult Film Star Mia Khalifa Was Fired By ‘Playboy’ After Being Accused Of Making ‘Reprehensible Comments’ About Hamas’ Attack On Israel

Mia Khalifa, the model and former adult film star, was fired by Playboy magazine for making “disgusting and reprehensible comments” after she expressed support for Hamas following its attack on Israel.

“We are writing today to let you know of our decision to terminate Playboy’s relationship with Mia Khalifa, including deleting Mia’s Playboy channel on our creator platform,” the company wrote in an email to users of its OnlyFans-like Centerfold platform, according to the New York Post.

It continued, “Mia has made disgusting and reprehensible comments celebrating Hamas’ attacks on Israel and the murder of innocent men, women and children. At Playboy, we encourage free expression and constructive political debate, but we have a zero-tolerance policy for hate speech.”

Khalifa has posted on X multiple times about the conflict, beginning when she wrote, “If you can look at the situation in Palestine and not be on the side of Palestinians, then you are on the wrong side of apartheid and history will show that in time.” When disturbing videos of the attack began to be shared online, she added, “Can someone please tell the freedom fighters in Palestine to flip their phones and film horizontal.” That post has since been deleted.

She later said of her post about filming horizontally that the “statement in no way shape or form is enticing spread of violence, I specifically said freedom fighters because that’s what the Palestinian citizens are… fighting for freedom every day.”

In response to criticisms about her posts from “magic truffles” company Red Light Holland, where she worked as a consultant, Khalifa replied, “I just wanna make sure there’s 4k footage of my people breaking down the walls of the open-air prison they’ve been forced out of their homes and into so we have good options for the history books that write about how they freed themselves from apartheid. Please worry about your sad little company lacking direction and purpose before you utter my name again. I stand with all people fighting oppression, now and always, do your research before begging for my investment in your little project, I’m from LEBANON, are you insane for expecting me to be on the side of colonialism you fucking weirdo.”
