Harrison Ford just turned 77 this week, and you can say he might be getting too old to play Indiana Jones. Yesterday on Conan, who is at San Diego Comic-Con this week, decided to hold auditions for his replacement.
Thomas Middleditch (who I am convinced could play Marty Feldman after this), Billy Eichner, Sam Richardson, Adam Scott, Seth Green, Tig Notaro, Mr. Kyra Sedgwick and Dan Chadle all tried out for the part. Kumail Nanjiani would have been considered if he actually showed up. However, he cancelled on Conan O’Brien minutes beforehand.
Anyhoo, of the bunch of them, I am rooting for the guy who could be Footloose around a boulder to take over as Indy. Can you believe with all the movies Bacon and Ford have done, they have never done one together? That needs to change.
Before Don Cheadle was a hotel manager on Golden Palace, he was in 10th grade for the 3rd time on Fresh Prince of Bel Air. He looks the same now as he did when he was 25 in that 1990 episode.
To hear what he told Conon O’Brien how green Will Smith was on the show’s second episode, then click here!
If you are like me, then you have only seen a handful of the Marvel Comics movies. Therefore, you want to see Avengers: Endgame, but you know you will have no idea what is going on because you missed so much of the story leading up to it.
Well, Jimmy Fallon and The Tonight Show has people like us covered. He got several of the superheroes to sing a cover of Billy Joel’s We Didn’t Start the Fire to tell the backstory we missed. Now I feel comfortable going to see the film. Once, I can actually find a screening of it that is not sold old.
BTW Watch this video all the way until the end for a very sweet ending that will bring a tear to your eye.
Jimmy Kimmel Live asked the cast of The Avengers cast to read a children’s story about Thanos. It started off nicely with Mark Ruffalo, Scarlett Johansson, Chris Hemsworth, Don Cheadle, Jeremy Renner and Chris Evans. Then they got to Wakanda and that was it. At that point, the story went to hell. Hopefully, the movie will have a better ending, but since it is called Endgame, I doubt it.
Before Don Cheadle played the legendary Jazz musician Miles Davis in Miles Ahead, he didn’t know how to dance in Angela Winbush’s It’s The Real Thing. He looks the same now as he did when he was 24 in that 1989 music video.
Here is he talking about how he landed a dancing part in the music video that he wasn’t supposed to be in on The Late Late Show with James Corden yesterday.
