Angelina Jolie has signed with WME after spending most of the past decade with UTA. Jolie is coming off the Disney sequel Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, which is close to grossing $500 million worldwide. In recent years, the woman who is one of the world’s most recognizable movie stars has focused more on directing and producing than acting. As of late that has changed as Jolie has lined up a number of prominent acting jobs including the lead role in Marvel’s Eternals, set for release next year.

James Gunn's reboot of The Suicide Squad starring Idris Elba and Margot Robbie will have all the violence and f-bombs our little minds can handle. What I mean is James Gunn's The Suicide Squad will probably be rated R. This update comes from a piece that lets us know Warner Bros. and DC are becoming more and more comfortable putting out R-rated content for adults following the success of Todd Phillips' Joker with Joaquin Pheonix. And it seems like this is the smart way to go as 20th Century Fox's R-rated comic book movies Deadpool, Deadpool 2, and Logan were also massive successes.

You'll want to keep up with Kanye West's latest music video. The rapper dropped the visual for Closed on Sunday on Thanksgiving, and it stars a handful of very familiar faces.
