Thurston Moore returns today to celebrate Earth Day with “Rewilding,” an ode to the UK’s land restoration and renewal program.
With a hypnotic, percussive-groove at the song’s center, Moore enters a nature-induced dream state. “This terrain is changing/ Rewilding, rearranging/ So I’m singing for animals/ Outside here just grazing,” Moore mutters at the song’s opening, with My Bloody Valentine bassist Deb Googe laying a thick, repetitive bassline beneath him.
“Don’t you dare wake me/ A butterfly just kissed me,” he sings. Though there are traces of menace and doubt in the song’s trance-like, psychedelic aura, the environmental renewal that Moore describes lends itself to flourishing peace. Stream “Rewilding” below.
“Rewilding” isn’t just a Thurston Moore x Earth Day special, it’s the latest offering from his forthcoming album Samurai Walkman: Flow Critical Lucidity. He previously shared album cuts “Hypnogram” and “Isadora,” which arrived...

Sky Ferreira made a surprise cameo at Coachella Saturday when the singer appeared onstage before Kevin Abstract’s set to deliver a cover of Lady A’s “Need You Now.”
Without any official announcement, the leather jacket and sunglasses-clad Ferreira sauntered out onstage to the shock of fans, and promptly debuted her synth-laden (and unfortunately abridged) rendition of the smash single by the country band formerly known as Lady Antebellum.
Just as mysteriously as she emerged, Ferreira departed, leaving the former Brockhampton rapper Abstract to begin has set as planned.

Her death was confirmed to Rolling Stone on Friday by Miriam Linna of Norton Records label, which released the singer’s only solo album Dangerous Game, in 2007. “Mary was an icon, a hero, a heroine, to both young men and women of my generation and of all generations,” Linna said. “It was an honor to work with Mary to record and release what would be her final records.

Since it debuted on Netflix in early October, the Benicio Del Toro-starring "Reptile" has consistently been one of the top 10 most-watched titles on the streaming platform. The film is the feature debut of director Grant Singer, who cut his teeth directing music videos for artists like The Weeknd, Sky Ferreira, Lorde, Taylor Swift, Sam Smith, Ariana Grande, Ariel Pink, and Skrillex. "I think the movie will be exciting to people who like to watch something where you don't know where it's leading you, where a film is going to have twists and turns and deceive you," Singer said in the film's press release. "And people who like things that are intense and visceral and suspenseful, I think they'll find something exciting in this." Here's the film's official synopsis:

Though she’d dreamed of owning a Spanish Revival home, there was something about the boxy, modern house that Anonymous Content manager Meredith Rothman couldn’t shake. Maybe it was the floor-to-ceiling windows. Or the abundance of natural light. Or the fact that it was tucked neatly into a canyon in Beverly Hills, conjuring up memories of her childhood home in Bel Air. Rothman asked interior designer Lauren Waters for her thoughts. “I assured her it was a wonderful blank canvas for intriguing furniture and great art,” says Waters.
That advice sealed the deal for Rothman, who tasked Waters with transforming the 2,500-square-foot spec house into a home that would serve as space to unwind, enable her to host the occasional soiree and showcase her burgeoning art collection, which includes works by Analia Saban and John Baldessari, as well as a charcoal drawing by her grandmother Luddie Waters, who was...

Rory Culkin, starring in one of the most interesting and weird true stories of all time should be a slam dunk, and it almost is, except when I think about it, it is miles away. Mayhem was an extraordinary component of the Norwegian Black Metal scene of the 80s and early 90s. Suicide, murder, church burnings and huffing from a bag of dead stuff was the order of the day. Whenever I meet goths in real life, they are unfailingly the nicest people you would ever be lucky enough to meet. Here they are not quite so cuddly.

For a first feature, Grant Singer could certainly do worse than Reptile. The question remains whether Netflix is capable of allowing anything better than routine potboiler material to fill their trove of originally produced and distributed films. Much of the streamer studio’s output has been heavily underwhelming and this latest offering is no different, the only adhesive element Benicio Del Toro’s natural screen gravitas. When he plays a cop or detective, like his Oscar-winning turn in Steven Soderberg’s Traffic or Denis Villeneuve’s Sicario, it’s basically a cheat code.
Grant Singer’s best directorial decision in a film filled with clumsy ones is giving Del Toro as much real estate as possible, in many occasions having the entire screen filled by his visage––sad, squinted, glaring eyes look right at you through the dead-center of the frame. His voice, raspy and exhausted-sounding, talking under breath nearly the whole time,...

A sinister edge emerges from Justin Timberlake in the first official trailer for Reptile, the forthcoming Netflix film directed by Grant Singer. Out Oct. 6, the film follows Detective Tom Nichols (Benicio Del Toro) as he works to uncover the mystery behind a young real estate agent’s murder. Timberlake stars as the victim’s unassuming husband, Will Grady, who might not be as innocent as he seems — after all, any good detective knows better than to count anyone out too early.

Times Square has little to no redeeming qualities. New York’s tourist hotspot is congested and chaotic — but it’s also an advertising magnet of bright lights and giant visual displays. When Spotify plasters LED billboards across the area promoting new music releases, fans and artists alike flock to the area to catch a glimpse and snap pictures to share on social media. Sky Ferreira fans would love to partake in this kind of fandom activity, but her album releases have been seemingly deadlocked with Capitol Records since her debut record arrived a decade ago.

Julia Garner is still hung up on the Madonna biopic.
After being cast as the Material Girl pop icon in June 2022, the film was shelved by Universal in January 2023. Madonna, who co-wrote, produced, and is set to direct her own life story for the big screen, recently announced a world tour.
However, “Inventing Anna” alum Garner teased that’s not the end of Madonna’s biopic.
“I don’t want to tell too much,” Garner said to Entertainment Tonight. “I’m going to keep things…fingers crossed.”
Garner reportedly endured an intense audition process to land the role of Madonna. The so-called boot camp was also attended by Florence Pugh, Alexa Demie, Odessa Young, and Emma Laird, with singers Bebe Rexha and Sky Ferreira also having previously been considered for the lead part. Julia Fox was rumored to be cast as Madonna’s longtime friend and fellow actress Debi Mazar.

Madonna's life story apparently won't be getting the biopic treatment after all - at least not right now. On Jan. 24, multiple sources confirmed to Variety that the project, which was set to star "Inventing Anna" and "Ozark" actor Julia Garner, would not be moving forward after the "Like a Prayer" singer announced her world tour earlier in the month.
Since Madonna was set to direct the movie herself, it makes sense that she won't be available for the foreseeable future. According to the outlet, Madonna's "sole focus is the tour," which will keep her busy throughout 2023. However, insiders told Variety that the legendary pop star is still committed to making her biopic happen one day.
In June 2022, Variety reported that Garner was poised as the frontrunner for the iconic part, bypassing more than a dozen candidates being considered. Other Hollywood starlets who were reportedly in talks to play Madonna include Florence Pugh,...

Some of Hollywood's most in-demand actresses may have gone through Madonna boot camp for nothing: Variety is now reporting that the (auto)biopic about the famed singer, which Madonna Ciccone planned to direct herself, is no longer in the works.
"Ozark" star and award season darling Julia Garner was reportedly set to lead the film about the early days of the "Like a Prayer" singer's career, but multiple sources are now saying that the film is no more. Universal Pictures and reps for Madonna and Garner wouldn't comment, per Variety.
If the Madonna film is being shelved, it's a pretty confounding decision given its long and, for those who auditioned, apparently arduous path to production. Last June, Garner was announced as the film's lead, and the news was met with a sort of Hunger Games champion-level intrigue after The Hollywood Reporter revealed that the months-long audition process reportedly involved 11-hour choreography training sessions,...

Universal’s Madonna biopic – starring Julia Garner and directed by the singer herself – is not moving forward, a source with knowledge of the matter confirmed to TheWrap.
The news comes a week after the “Material Girl” singer announced a career-spanning, globe-trotting tour, raising speculation about the untitled film’s future. It has languished in development since 2020, when Madonna was set to direct and co-write with “Juno” scribe Diablo Cody. They completed the script in April 2021 despite rumors that Cody had exited the project, according to Entertainment Weekly.
Garner won the leading role in June 2022. The “Ozark” and “Inventing Anna” star was reportedly up against stars like Florence Pugh, Odessa Young, Alexa Demie, Sky Ferreira and Bebe Rexha during the months-long audition process.

“This doesn’t feel like a normal fashion event,” Maggie Rogers said after landing in the lobby just before 8 p.m. on Thursday to attend Celine at The Wiltern, Hedi Slimane’s runway presentation for the French fashion house’s winter ’23 collection. “What I’m so excited for tonight is that being at The Wiltern feels incredibly creative and it has the ability to catch someone off guard. That’s when people get creative, when they can sense creativity in the air and be surprised.”
Rogers was right — this was not an average fashion function. From the moment Celine announced it would be presenting in L.A. by taking over the marquee at the iconic venue on the corner of Western and Wilshire, fashion insiders were buzzing about the spectacle to come.

Hedi Slimane presented his Celine FW23 collection titled Age of Indieness at the iconic Los Angeles art deco theatre, The Wiltern, Thursday, December 8.
The electric collection was attended by Priscilla Presley, Beck, Doja Cat, Matt Bellamy, Kim Gordan, Kid Cudi and the stars of the screen included Brie Larson, Austin Butler, Dustin Hoffman and Miles Teller.
King Princess, Shaun White, Courtney Cox, Cindy Crawford, Jeremy Scott, Sky Ferreira were also at the event that showcased the Fall/Winter 2023 87-look co-ed looks.
Slimane presented a homage to his style roots of indie rock-n-roll aesthetic supported by an original soundtrack titled ‘Hello Operator’, performed by the White Stripes and written and produced by Jack White. The styling was reminiscent of the late 2000s garments of tailored skinny jeans, leather jackets, military jackets, and fringed suede that could have walked right off the streets of Camden Town in what’s now defined as the indie sleaze era.

Julia Garner, the star of “Ozark” and “Inventing Anna,” is being eyed to star in the Madonna biopic at Universal that the pop star herself is directing and has been offered the lead role, an individual with knowledge told TheWrap.
The Madonna project is in development and Garner is the choice to play the “Like a Virgin” singer in the film. She had long been rumored to be a front runner for the film ahead of over a dozen other actresses and singers in what was reported to be a grueling audition process that expected its stars to be able to sing, dance and act and work with Madonna herself on choreography. Other actresses who reportedly had auditioned included Florence Pugh, Odessa Young, Alexa Demie and even singers such as Sky Ferreira or Bebe Rexha, and the audition process has lasted months.

“Inventing Anna” actress Julia Garner has been offered the role of Madonna in a forthcoming biopic about the pop icon, sources familiar with the project told Variety.
Garner has emerged the favorite from over a dozen candidates, one insider added, and has for months been speculated as a frontrunner for the part — a performance Madonna will shepherd herself as director. Garner’s team is considering and expected to accept the offer, said another source.
The film is set up at Universal Pictures, and will follow the early days of the oft-controversial artist and queen of perpetual reinvention. Universal Filmed Entertainment Group chairman Donna Langley won the script in a multi-studio bidding war, and Amy Pascal is attached as a producer.
A production timeline and other principal cast is still unknown. Actors in contention for the role include the previously reported Florence Pugh, “Euphoria” star Alexa Demie, and Odessa Young. Singers...

For artists at the “Are they for real?” stage of their career, “Saturday Night Live” is one of the great proving grounds — over the decades we’ve seen Nirvana, Pink and Kendrick Lamar crush it and Ashlee Simpson and Lana Del Rey faceplant in spectacular fashion, to name five top-of-head examples. Without setting too high a standard, it is safe to say that fast-rising 18-year-old singer-actor Olivia Rodrigo, who already has one of the biggest hits of the year with the teen-heartbreak anthem “Drivers License,” knocked her two-song performance out of the park on Saturday night.
Yes, she’s already famous, even though her solo career didn’t begin in earnest until “Drivers License” was released in January. But after three seasons portraying a teen musician on Disney’s “Bizaardvarks” and on the network’s catchily titled “High School Musical: The Musical: The Series” (with a second launching this year...

For the better part of the last decade, Dev Hynes has been one of the most prolific artists in the kind of taste-making pop and R&b that tops critics’ best-of lists and soundtracks five-course meals at your favorite restaurant. In addition to his five albums as Blood Orange, Hynes’ dance card as a writer-producer includes Solange, Sky Ferreira, Carly Rae Jepsen, A$AP Rocky, Mariah Carey and many others.
And in the past year alone, he’s released his latest Blood Orange project (the star-studded mixtape “Angel’s Pulse”), a collaborative classical album with the quartet Third Coast Percussion and his score for Melina Matsoukas’ “Queen & Slim.”
But even the most hyper-productive minds in music are not immune to the creativity blackhole that is 2020. While Hynes kept busy during the first few weeks of quarantine finishing a few scoring projects he began pre-lockdown, he hasn’t been able...

This The Twilight Zone review contains spoilers.
The Twilight Zone Season 2 Episode 4
One of my favorite episodes of the original Twilight Zone is called “A Nice Place to Visit.” It’s about a dirty rotten gambler who finds himself in heaven, only to discover that he’s actually in hell. Sorry for the spoiler for a 1960 episode up front, but the best thing about most classic episodes of the Zone are also, usually connected to the last-minute twist. In episode 4 of Season 2 of the new Jordan Peele-produced Twilight Zone, the idea of success-as-punishment is repackaged fairly simply. It’s not the most exciting episode of the new season, but it also, somewhat profoundly, might be the most realistic.
For those of us who watched season 1 of the new Twilight Zone, the essential feeling of “Ovation,” will, at least superficially, feel a little bit like the episode “The Comedian.” Both...

Horror filmmaker Jordan Peele – who many people had already called the modern-day Rod Serling – rebooted legendary sci-fi/supernatural anthology show The Twilight Zone last year, and the result was a hit for CBS All Access. Season 2 is now on the way and this new trailer promises that Peele, in his dual role as exec producer and narrator, will take us back to that eerie other dimension that’s not so different from our own for 10 more cautionary tales of terror.
