Emancipation of One Harley Quinn' Warner Bros.ħ. Speaking of “R-rated biggie…”Įwan McGregor, Chris Messina, and Jurnee Smollett-Bell in 'Birds of Prey And the Fantabulous.
BIRDS OF PREY 2017 MOVIE
The Will Smith/Martin Lawrence action comedy stole much of the buzz from Birds of Prey both as an R-rated biggie, the post-Christmas event movie and the first biggie of the year. The bat-outta-hell R-rated action sequel vastly overperformed even optimistic guestimates, partially because it was much better than expected. And yes, it’s ironic that a sequel to a massively successful Will Smith movie sans Will Smith got hammered by… a sequel to a massively successful Will Smith movie starring Will Smith. If you’re an infrequent moviegoer who only goes to the big/event movies, there’s a good chance you already used your periodic theatrical engagement for Sony’s well-reviewed and well-like Bad Boys for Life (or 1917, I suppose). If Joker, Green Book and The Lion King make big bucks while Birds of Prey, Widows and Tomorrowland don’t, that’s what will get made at a theatrical level. And, sure, you can say that “ Tomb Raider wasn’t that good” or “ Darkest Minds got lousy reviews,” but money is money. Usually I complain about this in regard to non-comic book or non-franchise flicks that played to empty theaters.
It’s possible that we mistook the copious online interest in Birds of Prey (and the Harley Quinn character) for general audience interest, especially among adults.
The relative under-performance of Birds of Prey is another example of audiences not showing up for the thing they claim (or at least the media claims) they want from Hollywood. Online excitement doesn’t equal mainstream interest. He also had to forfeit an estimated $25 million worth of assets.5. According to Rolling Stone, he pleaded guilty to racketeering and conspiracy to distribute drugs in 2017 and was sentenced to a whopping 21 years in prison. After that, the blackjack player contacted the FBI, and Hanson was finally arrested in 2015. The whole thing came to a head when Hanson allegedly found the graveyard where Cipriani's parents were buried, then defaced their graves with red paint. Cipriani started suspecting that Hanson was using him to launder dirty money and told the drug trafficker that he wasn't "comfortable." That's when the threats began, starting with Hanson casually stating he knew where Cipriani and Santo lived and escalating to Cipriani receiving a death threat along with DVD footage of two men getting beheaded.
At the time, Cipriani thought the drug trafficker was interested in investing in his charity games, but that all changed when he was handed two suitcases stuffed with $2.5 million in a Sydney, Australia resort. Per the report, Mavrakis was "heartbroken, sick and furious" while family feared McGregor's alleged affair was the result of "a mid-life crisis."Īccording to Rolling Stone, Cipriani met Hanson in June 2011. According to The Sun, she had welcomed the Winstead over for dinner when she was first cast in Fargo, and had no idea Winstead was interested in McGregor. So, was it an affair or not?Įither way, Mavrakis was reportedly furious, at least if you're feeding into tabloid drama. Some reports claim both pairs separated in May, but McGregor and Mavrakis only confirmed their split in October. According to People, McGregor filed for divorce three months after the highly-public smooch, but the whole timeline is unclear. As far as anyone knew, no separation had actually been made public, but Winstead, who The Sun claims had a "teenage crush" on the Trainspotting star, split from her husband some months prior. Though he was spotted without his ring, the Scottish actor had been married to French production designer Eve Mavrakis for more than 20 years and the pair share four children.
