The 41-year-old will star opposite Idris Elba in plane crash survival story "The Mountain Between Us" and for one particular scene, Winslet's character, photojournalist Alex Martin, comes face-to-face with a big cat in the wilderness, reports dailymail.co.uk.

"They never let the lion into the plane while I was in there. I was up for it. But the studio was like, 'No! It is not going to happen'," Winslet said.

Revealing how her husband thought it was a joke when he saw signs warning the cast and crew that there would be "cougars on set", she added: "It had a warning which read 'cougars on set today. Nobody wear red. No loud noises. No food or drink on set.' He thought it was a joke. And I said, 'It's not a joke.' He did not want those lions close to me at all."

"He's really terrific. Excellent actor. And very quiet, actually. You know, comes on set prepared and does it. He also likes to improvise and I like that too," Hopkins said in a statement. 

He added: "Honestly, when you have a good script, and this was an excellent script, the rest is easy. If a director doesn't want you to improvise because he values his writing that much, then fine. Just learn the script. 

"But a really good director has the capacity to say, ‘Okay, let's kick this about'. Like how I worked with Woody Allen (‘You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger' in 2010). He said, ‘So now you can do it again and kick it around a bit and improvise'. It's good to see people relaxed and being confident in what you can do."

When it comes to Harry's name, Rowling has now revealed the existence of a second Harry Potter who was never mentioned in the books, reports mirror.co.uk.

The revelation came in her latest post to Pottermore, a blog.

Henry Potter -- known as Harry to his friends -- was Harry's great grandfather who enjoyed an illustrious career as part of the Wizengamot from 1913 to 1921. Like the younger Harry, he was very pro-Muggle rights, which meant the author of pure blood guide "The Sacred Twenty-Eight" refused to recognise the Potter clan as pure blood.

"The critics were really good. I was expecting minus 3 and minus 4 but they gave 1, 1.5 apparently, so i am very pleased," said Salman at an event where his "Being Human" joined hands with PVR for an initiative under which every time when a customer book tickets for a movie at PVR, they will get the option to pay Rs 2 extra and this amount will be given to the Being Human foundation for different causes.

About the feedback about his film, Salman said: "As per reports people are saying they can not see 'Bhai' (Salman) crying. So I asked, are they (audience) laughing and the answer was "no, they are crying". So I said don't worry about it."

"As it is an Eid release, people have preconceived notions and plans to throw coins, sing and dance at the cinema hall. So they have gone to watch a certain film but get to watch another film. This film is not of a kind which you watch with your buddies as you will not get an opportunity to dance or have fun. It is a very emotional film. Even an emotionless, stone hearted person will get tears in his eyes. So this is an emotional film to be seen with parents, grand parents and entire family."

In an interview to a TV channel, he said: "You take voting from the public and I will clear the word (intercourse) on the promo and the film also. I want 1 lakh votes and I want to see that India has changed and Indian families want their 12-year-old kids to understand the meaning of this word (intercourse)."

The film's second mini promo, released on Monday on the internet, where female lead Anushka Sharma uttered the word "intercourse" in one of the scenes has been disapproved by the CBFC for airing on television.

He narrated the incident on his blog on Thursday night.

"A young crew member from ‘Thugs of Hindostan' walks up gingerly to me on set and with some hesitation she says, she wishes to sing a song to me.

"I look at her... She is young and shy and white Caucasian... and I wonder why she would want to do that, particularly because there is no indication that she would even know who I am, even though she has been told that the project she is on is an Indian film and these actors are the actors on the film.

The 44-year-old Colombian, who plays Gloria in the show, said she wants Cowell as a special guest, reports metro.news.

"He is known for having one of the sharpest tongues in showbiz, Gloria is known for her sharp tongue. It could make for some funny TV - and maybe Mr Nasty would learn you never mess with Latin American women."

The 50-year-old actress made the revelation in an interview with The Daily Telegraph on Friday, reports dailymail.co.uk. 

Speaking of the period around 2008, she said: "I think I was pregnant with (daughter) Sunday, and I was like, I'm going to give up acting, I'm done. It's too much."

However, the star was persuaded to stay in the profession by her mother Janelle.

"She said, 'Keep your toe in the water,' because, she said, 'You're going to want that as you get older'."

Returning late one night, I found three or four young girls - late teens, I suspect - lined up in the hall outside of Tom's room.

"I remember thinking 'Tom's going to be really upset if these hot girls interfere with his Bible reading'. So I asked them, with all the stern gravitas of my 28 years, if there was something I could do to help them.

"They just stared at me and at that moment, Tom's door opened and another girl came out adjusting her hair and taking off down the hall, while the first girl in line slipped into Tom's room.

He added: "As an actor I get a lot of offers but I have to wait for the right movie. I have to do something that I believe in. I think a lot of actors take their time like Salman Khan. As an actor you have a certain responsibility towards your audience."

"Aamir hasn't played the character like that but Aamir is really good. Hrithik has done it, so Hrithik would be a good choice. And Akki (Akshay Kumar). Anyone would have done this.I'm sure if they would have accepted the role, they would have done full justice to the role. It's just that I am locked up with Kabir (Khan)," said Salman during an interview to UC News.

Satyarthi is known for his global crusade against child slavery and exploitative child labour. He shared the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014 with Malala Yousafzai of Pakistan

The researchers found that those who engaged in more regular sexual activity scored higher on tests that measured their verbal fluency and their ability to visually perceive objects.
