Can't stop watching Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper's Oscar-night performance of "Shallow"? You're in luck: Warner Bros. is bringing a special encore version of "A Star Is Born" back to the big screen today with nearly 12 additional minutes of footage.
The studio said Wednesday that the new edition will feature extended performances of songs sung by Gaga like "Alibi," and an a cappella "Shallow," which won the Oscar Sunday for best original song. It will also feature brand new scenes between the two leads Ally and Jack.
The one week engagement starts today on over 1,150 screens in the U.S. and Canada.
Winfrey to interview Jackson accusers
An Oprah Winfrey interview with two men who say Michael Jackson sexually abused them as boys will air immediately after a documentary on the men.
HBO and the Oprah Winfrey Network announced Wednesday that the special, "Oprah Winfrey Presents: After Neverland," will air simultaneously on both channels Monday at 10 p.m. Eastern and Pacific. That's just after the conclusion of the two-night airing of "Leaving Neverland."
The networks say the pre-taped interview by Winfrey will be with Wade Robson and James Safechuck, and the film's director, Dan Reed in front of an audience of people affected by sexual abuse.
The family and estate of Jackson , who died in 2009, have denounced the documentary and HBO's decision to air it, saying it spreads falsehoods about a man not alive to defend himself.
New Philip Pullman novel coming Oct. 3
Philip Pullman's next novel will bring us an older and more independent Lyra Silvertongue, his longtime literary heroine.
"The Secret Commonwealth" will be published Oct. 3 in the U.S. and the U.K. by imprints of Penguin Random House. The novel is the second of Pullman's "Book of Dust" series and is set 20 years after the first volume, "La Belle Sauvage." Silvertongue also was featured in Pullman's "His Dark Materials" trilogy. In a statement released Tuesday, Pullman said that his new novel would take Silvertongue to "a mysterious desert" in central Asia.
Silvertongue has been portrayed by several actresses on stage and screen. Dafne Keen will play her in the upcoming HBO-BBC One adaptation of the "Dark Material" books, with Tom Hooper of "The King's Speech" fame directing.
