Walton Goggins Was Ready To Join ‘Fallout’ Without A Script… Until He Heard About The Missing Nose

Walton Goggins stopped by Late Night with Seth Meyers on Wednesday where the iconic actor opened up about his role in the upcoming Fallout series for Amazon.

After sharing a badass new clip of Goggins’ character The Ghoul coming to collect a bounty, Goggins joked around with Meyers about how much he appreciates having a nose after filming the first season. According to Goggins, he was ready to sign onto the video game adaptation immediately, without even seeing a script, until showrunner Jonathan Nolan dropped the nose bomb.

“Two minutes into the Zoom call I was having with Jonathan Nolan and I said, ‘I’m in,’” Goggins recalled. “He said, ‘Don’t you wanna read a script?’ I said, ‘Yeah, sure, whatever.’ He said, ‘Don’t you wanna know what you’re playing, what the character is?’ I said, ‘Yeah, ok, go ahead. Tell me.’ And he said, ‘He’s 200 years old. He’s a bounty hunter that has been roaming a post-apocalyptic wasteland and he has no nose.’”

After some laughter from the audience and Meyers, Goggins admitted that detail gave him pause.

“I said, ‘Uh, could you send me those scripts? I might maybe get back to you, I dunno,’” Goggins said. Obviously, he signed onto the project, and he even had a hand in developing The Ghoul’s look.

“We wanted him to be like attractive. We wanted the audience to kind of lean into his look and not be kind of repulsed by him,” Goggins told Meyers. “So I said, ‘Could you do Kris Kristofferson if he were 250 years old and had been walking the wasteland and had been drinking all night?’”

Clearly, the character design worked as fans went wild over Goggins after the most recent trailer dropped. However, the actor did admit to having second thoughts about the project after putting on the makeup.

“It was five hours in the chair the first time. It was long,” Goggins said, but always the professional, he powered through.

Fallout drops its entire first season April 11 on Prime Video.

Spotify has been trying to add different features to the streaming platform over the past few months, including an AI DJ recommendation option, new aspects to Spotify Wrapped, and more. As another of the newest additions, they have also made it so users can now watch music videos from their favorite artists.

Here’s what to know about how to view the music videos on Spotify.

How To Watch Music Videos On Spotify

As of right now, the music video feature for Spotify is still in beta testing, according to TechCrunch. As an example photo that was provided by Spotify, they showed Asake as one of the artists who would have a music video available.

To access the music videos, users should click a “Switch To Video” button on a song that has the option. By clicking the button, it will restart whatever song the user was listening to from the beginning.

This is currently available to those who have Spotify Premium and is accessible in eleven countries. “For this beta rollout, we chose these markets based on a number of criteria including market size and the availability of local content support… Stay tuned as we hope to expand the catalog of music videos and increase availability to more countries,” Spotify’s VP Global Head of Consumer Experience Sten Garmark shared, per the outlet.

When Is Future On Stage At Rolling Loud California 2024?

Last November, Rolling Loud California announced its 2024 lineup — only to amend it the following day. Initially, Lil Uzi Vert was announced as a headliner alongside Nicki Minaj and Post Malone, but they almost immediately disputed the announcement. Future and Metro Boomin came to the rescue as the new co-headliners for Sunday, March 17, which will be perfect timing because Future and Metro are preparing to drop We Don’t Trust You on March 22 and April 12. ¥$ (Ye and Ty Dolla Sign) have also since been announced as headliners for Thursday, March 14.

When Is Future On Stage At Rolling Loud California 2024?

According to the festival’s app and a press release, Future and Metro Boomin are scheduled to perform from 8:30 p.m. PST until 9:45 p.m. PST on the Ethika Stage. Before their headlining set, the Ethika Stage will also welcome performances from DrownMili, Cash Cobain, Kxllswxtch, BashfortheWorld, NLE Choppa, Chief Keef, Ski Mask The Slump God, and Don Toliver. See all of the Rolling Loud California 2024 set times here.

Sydney Sweeney Isn’t Too Bothered By The ‘Madame Web’ Box-Office Implosion: ‘I Was just Hired As An Actress’

Anyone who has ever worked a job knows that not every day will be great. Sometimes you have a great time with your coworkers and make lifelong memories! Other times you are tormented by your fellow workers and have to live in fear for the rest of your life. It can go either way, especially in Hollywood.

But still, a job is a job! That’s why Sydney Sweeney doesn’t seem too bothered by the lukewarm response to Madame Web, the meme of a movie that bombed at the box office last month.

Sweeney told The Los Angeles Times that for her, it was just another job. “I was just hired as an actress in it, so I was just along for the ride for whatever was going to happen,” she explained. This is her calmly reminding us normal people that even though the movie was a wash, she probably still made more than most people who are clocking into work every day.

It doesn’t seem like the rest of the cast cares either. Dakota Johnson claims she wasn’t surprised by the backlash surrounding the film, though she also wanted to shine a light on just how hard it is to get movies made these days. “I probably will never do anything like it again because I don’t make sense in that world. And I know that now,” she said. “But sometimes in this industry, you sign on to something, and it’s one thing and then as you’re making it, it becomes a completely different thing, and you’re like, Wait, what? But it was a real learning experience, and of course it’s not nice to be a part of something that’s ripped to shreds, but I can’t say that I don’t understand.”

Sweeney seems to be shaking off this loss pretty quickly, as her horror film Immaculate is getting rave reviews. Sometimes jobs are good!

The ‘Girls5eva’ Season 3 Reviews Are Calling It The ‘True Successor’ To ’30 Rock’ After To Making The Jump To Netflix

Girls5Eva Season 3
Netflix

The first reviews for Girls5eva Season 3 are piling in, and right away, it looks like the Tina Fey series is right at home on Netflix.

After initially starting on Peacock, Girls5eva dropped two seasons before facing cancellation. Fortunately, Netflix swooped in and saved the show that centers around an early aughts girl band consisting of Wickie (Renée Elise Goldberry), Dawn (Sara Bareilles), Summer (Busy Philipps), and Gloria (Paula Pell). Now, in the later years of their life, Girls5eva the band is struggling to make a comeback, but Girls5eva the show is not having the same problem.

The early reviews for Season 3 are overwhelmingly positive as critics openly hope this is the start of a new chapter for Girls5eva on Netflix.

You can read what the reviews are saying below:

Coleman Spilde, The Daily Beast:

The move is a major win for Netflix: Girls5eva’s third season, which drops on the platform March 14, is the show’s best yet. This time around, the series, about an aughts-era girl group trying to restart their career 20 years after their popularity faded, goes completely off the wall. For anyone craving more 30 Rock, this is officially the true successor. Girls5eva Season 3 is the most consistently funny the show has ever been.

Alison Herman, Variety:

“Girls5eva” itself was far from exhausting its potential, either as a joke-dense satire of cultural misogyny or a resonant tale of later-in-life reinvention. Condensed to just six episodes from the first two seasons’ eight apiece, Season 3 acts more like a bite-sized preview of what “Girls5eva” could still become than a full delivery on its unrealized promise. It’s nonetheless in all our interests for this transplant to take. There simply aren’t enough shows where one could encounter a fake commercial for “Spaghetti for Her.” Losing the one we have — again! — would be a tragedy.

Saloni Gajjar, The A.V. Club:

The beauty of Girls5eva lies in how it embraces absurdity. Here’s a TV show that confidently knows its voice and therefore doesn’t struggle to sustain it. In fact, the dialogue, characterizations, soundtrack, and sets only get better and more eccentric here. There’s a constant barrage of one-liners that don’t overpower the storytelling like they often did in season one, when Girls5eva relied a bit too much on its jokes. And if season two nailed a sweet spot between being snappy, stupid, and somewhat sentimental, the six new episodes continue to perfect that rhythm.

Rendy Jones, RogerEbert.com:

On the road, the writing staff never fails to come up with fresh, hilarious gags, continuing the upbeat, silly, and sometimes cleverly satirical “Josie and the Pussycats” meets “Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping” elements that made me fall in love with it in the first place. It deviates from inside-baseball industry jokes and leans more into the different venues, cities, and traits of people they come across, delivered with a charming buoyancy. One standout episode features Catherine Cohen as a nostalgia-heavy millennial billionaire throwing a party, who hires Girls5Eva to perform one of their most provocative songs from their past that puts Dawn on edge. There, the girls go off on their subplots, all equally funny.

Daniel Kurland, Den of Geek:

Girls5Eva remains one of the densest laughs-per-minute comedies with relentless cutaway gags that cram an hour’s worth of silliness into half hour episodes. There’s a Wikipedia entry’s worth of knowledge on Fort Worth, Texas, an extended never-ending bit about Marriott Divorced Dad Suitelets, and what The Crown devolves into after all the royal drama is finished. There are so many time-based gags that jump through different decades of the group’s lengthy history with pitch-perfect costume and set design that beautifully reflects the minutiae of each era that the series jumps into. Girls5Eva is deeply funny, but the art design and music is frequently its secret weapon and what sets it apart from other comedies.

Paola Ragusa, Consequence of Sound:

With Girls5eva now landing on a new platform — even considering the shorter season length this time around — there’s a sense of renewal that surrounds the show. Like many new shows, there’s a point to prove in the beginning; with so much competition from other streaming services and within a streamer’s own selection of available content, there’s an even higher bar to reach. But now, the numbers might be a bit more in Girls5eva’s favor — Peacock only just cracked 30 million subscribers, while Netflix has over 260 million. Between the much larger potential audience and a pre-established foothold for other Fey/Carlock-produced series like Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and Good News, the potential for a real explosion in popularity is real.

Girls5eva Season 3 is now streaming on Netflix.

The ‘Loudermilk’ Co-Creator Sounds Awfully Confident About A Fourth Season (And More)

At this point, Netflix has probably heard the Loudermilk audience loudly and clearly. The misanthropic comedy show hasn’t reached Suits-level streaming numbers, but it’s fair to say that the Ron Livingston-starring series (which quickly climbed the Nielsen streaming list in recent months) has already found a much larger audience than it did on Audience Network for three seasons.

Naturally, Netflix’s reputation for resurrecting cancelled or otherwise abandoned shows precedes itself here, and viewers have been wondering if there will be a fourth season on the streaming service. Co-creator Peter Farrelly has already voiced his willingness and even described the story that a fourth season could take, but while promoting Amazon’s Ricky Stanicky (starring John Cena and Zac Efron), Farrelly went much further. He told ComingSoon that there is “absolutely” hope for more, and in fact, he is determined to make two more seasons, somewhere:

Absolutely. Guaranteed. A hundred percent. I’m going to do two more seasons. I don’t know where yet, but we’re going to do it. The show’s too good. I have it mapped out for seven seasons. We always did. And we know where we want to go with it. The three-year break that we just got from the last one works right into it. Because the last episode, he sold his book, and now we cut to three years later — the book blew up. It’s a huge hit.

Farrelly then elaborated upon how Loudermilk will grow tight with Neil Young and attempt to juggle inner workings of his recovery group, which will make it “sort of a cross between Loudermilk and a Larry Sanders show.” Farrelly did add, though, that he doesn’t believe that the show could have existed in its current state outside of the Audience Network because they told him, “[G]o do whatever you want to do.” And we shall see if Loudermilk lives to grump again, although surely Netflix knows about all the fourth-season chatter going down and will likely respond in due time.

Rapsody Is Returning With Her First New Album In Five Years, As She Announces ‘Please Don’t Cry’

Rapsody fans have a lot to look forward to this year, as she recently announced her fourth studio album. Titled Please Don’t Cry, the record will arrive in May and will include collaborations with Erykah Badu, Lil Wayne, and more.

This marks her first new studio album in five years, and people are pretty excited to hear what she has in store. According to BET, she has also self-executive produced and found her taking inspiration from Terrace Martin, 9th Wonder, and more.

“It was a little nerve-wracking for me because it was like, Can I do this? Am I gonna make the right decisions for myself?” she shared. “But I learned that that was a little bit of me worrying about the wrong things, about the fans and what they’ll think when instead of just doing what I felt was good and telling the story that I wanted to tell, and that’s what art is.”

Last October, Rapsody released her “Asteroids” collaboration with Hit-Boy, which served as the album’s first single.
