“It Has to Be Really Well Done”

Lucasfilm’s chief creative officer said the decision always hinges on whether or not the idea is well-executed.

Dave Filoni isn’t ruling anything out when it comes to Star Wars. Lucasfilm’s chief creative officer said this week that an R-rated installment of the George Lucas-originated franchise could be “interesting.”

“Sure, I mean, I don’t know. It think it’s interesting,” Filoni said of the possibility of an R-rated installment during an interview on the Happy Sad Confused podcast. “The bottom line is whatever we do, it has to be really well done.”

The R-rating consideration comes a month before Marvel’s Deadpool & Wolverine hits theaters, the studio’s first R-rated movie. Star Ryan Reynolds said recently he was “really proud” of Marvel for allowing the rating. “It’s a huge step for them, it adds a whole color to this kaleidoscopic wheel that is that company and the different people that they have been entertaining for forever.”

Filoni said he has similar considerations for Star Wars. “I think when you look at something that is taken as different like Andor, it’s so well done, and Tony [Gilroy, Andor showrunner] and his team do such a phenomenal job, that I think that there’s an audience for that. I think also with that audience, I also though want to still be hitting the imagination of the kids out there, so that they can grow up and appreciate those things.”

He added, “[The franchise] encompasses all types of styles, and the creative of the particular story driving it is the most important thing, and they should do something that’s within their comfort zone. Otherwise, we’re to imagine that everyone’s going to come in and pretend they’re George Lucas.”

Filoni said he’s “learned from George, but certainly I’m not the same as George when it comes to making movies. He’s a one-of-a-kind generational talent. I like wolves and put them in my Star Wars. We’re just different and that’s okay. But there are principles about choices and being a good person and being more selfless and getting over your fears, and those are timeless no matter what style you’re talking about.”

Lily Allen Starts OnlyFans Account for Her Feet

Lily Allen is dipping her toes in the OnlyFans pool.

In fact, the “Smile” singer has launched an account on the subscription-based platform—which is known to host NSFW content—solely for pictures of her feet.

On July 2, Lily shared footage from her and husband David Harbour‘s trip to Italy, including a video of her leg dangling next to a fountain. However, she covered her bare foot with an emoji of a heart in the colors of the Italian flag, writing on Instagram Story, “La dolce feeta.”

The post was accompanied by a link to her OnlyFans page, where the 39-year-old jokingly wrote in the description, “Just here for the shoes.”

And Lily has always been comfortable in tapping into taboo. As she recently noted, “I’m quite into normalizing everything that people are ashamed about in themselves.”

“I’m always wanting to do that,” Lily said on the June 17 episode of her Miss Me? podcast with cohost Miquita Oliver. “To me, that’s what art is.”

Paul George, Joel Embiid, and Tyrese Maxey Capable of Taking on Celtics Says ESPN Analyst

Paul George‘s move to Philly may have been a shock, but it’s one that fans will welcome with open arms and brotherly love. Truth is, his mere presence makes the 76ers more of a contender than they’ve ever been in the Joel Embiid era. ESPN analyst Tim Bontemps even elaborated on the presence that PG13 will have on the franchise and claimed they now have the best Big 3 in the entire NBA.

The ESPN analyst said that the 76ers had promised their star player Joel Embiid that would get him a teammate of PG-13’s caliber for a year. All the management asked from him was patience and it seems like having patience has paid off well. Now, the Philly franchise has Embiid, PG-13, and Tyrese Maxey, which Bontemps believes is the new and the best Big 3 in the league.

“The Sixers now have the best big three in the NBA, it’s really not close. With the three guys they have right now, all of them were All-Stars last year. You’ve got a lead guard in Maxey, you’ve got an elite two-way wing in Paul George, and you’ve got maybe the most dominant big in the league in Joel Embiid.”

Embiid, Maxey, and George are all different stylistically. While Embiid and Maxey showed they can be a great duo last season, adding George to this cocktail only makes them more of a lethal and well-rounded team. Bontemps said, “They have the highest ceiling now of any team in the league but the Boston Celtics. They can go toe-to-toe with the Boston Celtics, depending on how healthy these guys are.”

“The Sixers now have the best big three in the NBA, it’s really not close… [Paul George, Tyrese Maxey & Joel Embiid] fit together perfectly… They can go toe-to-toe with the Celtics.”

Agree with Tim Bontemps? 🤔

The ESPN analyst believes that in terms of quality, the 76ers Big 3 is so much better than the Big 3 that the Phoenix Suns assembled. Bontemps said that the Suns Big 3 was “flawed from the start” but that won’t be the case with this one consisting of Embiid, George, and Maxey. He also applauded the Philly franchise for acting quickly on the opportunity to sign the nine-time All-Star.

He believes that this will be a game changer for the team, and they now have a very strong case as a title contender, something that wasn’t even an option before they signed the former Clipper.

Professional Life: After appearing in all three High School Musical films, Hudgens went on to star in films such as Bandslam, Beastly, Sucker Punch, Spring Breakers, Machete Kills, Second Act and Bad Boys for Life.

“High School Musical was a fantastic journey, but it completely derailed me from where I originally saw my career going,” Hudgens told The Guardian in an August 2018 interview. “I always wanted to be the indie girl; I always wanted to be in the movies where I’m playing a drug addict or a stripper or a prostitute. That was my goal since I was like, 11.”

In 2015, Hudgens made her Broadway debut in a revival of the musical Gigi. The following year, she returned to her musical roots and played Rizzo in Fox’s Grease Live! Then, in 2019, she joined Fox’s live staging of Rent. Plus, she starred in Lin-Manuel Miranda‘s movie adaptation of Rent creator Jonathan Larson‘s autobiographical musical tick, tick…BOOM!.

Personal Life: In 2011, a year after Hudgens and Zac Efron split, she began dating actor Austin Butler. The couple split in early 2020. In December 2023, she married MLB star Cole Tucker after three years of dating. The pair are now expecting their first child.
