Don’t Worry Darling Production Paused After Crew Member Tests Positive For COVID-19
Back in September, Harry Styles fans – who have waited since 2017’s Dunkirk to see him back up on the big screen – got some news to rejoice about when he joined Olivia Wilde‘s latest directorial effort, a period piece called Don’t Worry Darling. Brought in to replace Shia LaBeouf, Styles will star alongside Florence Pugh and Chris Pine in the 1950s-set film, which reportedly takes place in a California desert utopian community. Sounds great! Production on the film had begun recently, but Deadline reported on November 4 that everything had to be shut down while filming in Los Angeles after a crew member tested positive for COVID-19 during routine testing.

The Craft: Legacy’s Costume Designer Used Nature’s Elements to Create a Modern Teen Witch Wardrobe
The Craft: Legacy has an impressive act to follow. While the magic of the original ’90s classic is unmatched, the newest addition to The Craft film series is a modern take on the teen witch story. Beyond themes of embracing personal power and stepping into womanhood, director Zoe Lister-Jones’s sequel explores intersectionality and elemental magic — reflected in the coven’s contemporary style by costume designer Avery Plewes. “I think it’s a spiritual process for a lot of people,” Plewes told POPSUGAR when asked what magic means to her. “Magic is about embracing your power within, and sort of getting in touch with your desires.” Plewes loved The Craft growing up, and thinks Lister-Jones did “a really good job of creating unique characte...

Bebe Rexha Gets ‘Quizzed’ by ‘Clueless’ Star Alicia Silverstone — Then Turns the Tables
After nailing the True or False round of “Quizzed” with lightning speed, the singer-songwriter declares, “I’m a professional at Clueless facts!” The General Trivia round — which included questions about Cher’s cause for the school charity drive, the song Elton (Jeremy Sisto) sang with Tai (Brittany Murphy), and more — didn’t go much differently. That leads Silverstone to ponder: “If I didn’t have these answers, I’m really curious if I would know these answers. … I’m just wondering if you were given the cheat sheet before this!” During the round, Rexha admits that revisiting the film as an adult brought new understanding to some of the lines and props. “Watching the movie growing up, I didn’...

Charlie’s Angels Embraced Humor (And Low-Rise Jeans) To Fight Crime With Fashion
By Sara Radin Low-rise, boot-cut jeans adorned with paisley embroidery and studs; candy-colored halter tops; ombré-tinted sunglasses dotted with glittering rhinestone hearts. These are just a few of the iconic, Y2K pieces that make up the ass-kicking wardrobe of McG’s 2000 take on Charlie’s Angels. Small details, like stitching and tapering, were key to telling the story of Charlie’s three powerhouse ladies Drew Barrymore, Cameron Diaz, and Lucy Liu, who played private investigators Dylan, Natalie, and Alex. “The clothes also had to be very functional because they did all these karate kicks and had to fly through the air and stuff,” costume designer Joe Aulisi tells MTV News. From stretchy fabrics to knee-high boots, whether they were fighting evil with high-flying martial arts moves while...
