6:34 He really understood the assignment in Mamma Mia! there.???? I enjoyed his confidence & chaotic joy throughout. His performances are ones I start to appreciate as I grew up and you can see his sons adopt similar skills.

I’ve seen him in a million things and I’ve known who he is for many, many years now, but still, it’s a little shocking to see this condensed list of his filmography and reflecting on _just how many_ iconic roles in big productions he’s been in. And bizarrely, instead of aging out, some of my favorite roles he’s been in have been in just the last decade, and they seem to be getting more frequent! Anyway, just thankful to have his presence in modern cinema. He’s always lent a sense of authenticity to every production he’s been in.

I like him more every time I see more interviews with him. With most actors it’s the opposite.

“Star Wars for grownups”. That’s well said. Andor was excellent it was beautifully written, it had interesting characters, and it dealt with real issues.

LAVISHLY DEMURE

An exclusive behind-the-scenes look at how Zara Larsson prepares for her viral Lollapalooza performance. As the Swedish pop star gets ready for one of her biggest gigs yet, a show-stopping concert at Chicago’s iconic Lollapalooza music festival, she gives us an intimate look at her day. We begin eight hours before showtime in Zara’s hotel room, where she does vocal warm-ups, eats breakfast, and reminisces about the last time she played Lollapalooza, ten years ago. Once she arrives at the festival grounds, Zara gets into glam, drawing inspiration from a colorful, sea-dwelling crawfish. After spending time in hair and makeup, she heads backstage for a few final rehearsals with her dancers before taking the stage.
