For those of you as excited for this film as we are… Few moviegoers could forget the passionate and gruesome scenes of Frank Miller’s classic comic-come-to-life, 300. Director Zack Snyder saw box-office gold in 2007 with nearly a half of billion dollars in ticket sales thanks to the aforementioned action sequences and the unforgettable “This is Sparta!” line. Now, the Legendary Pictures team is reuniting for a prequel of sorts in 300: Rise of an Empire, a surefire way to whet the appetite of fans who have been bloodthirsty for more Greek war. The new flick is based on Xerxes, an unpublished novel by Miller, named after the original film’s primary antagonist. Much of the film will revolve around Themistocles played by Australian actor Sullivan Stapleton…

Although Precious was a character played by Gabourey Sidibe, if you haven’t noticed when it comes to looks, the two have a lot in common. In an Insta/Twitter kind of world, Kanye’s comments were among the first in what we could only call a slander campaign in in reference to Sidibe’s appearance. Despite an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress in Precious, and also phenomenal roles in movies like Yelling To The Sky and television roles in American Horror Story: Coven, much of the public chooses to still focus on her appearance rather than her acting skills. Journalist Roland Martin caught up with Sidibe before the 45th NAACP Image Awards to ask how she deals with the criticism…
