▼ + stars: | 2024-03-31 | by ( Alexis Soloski | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +1 min

The first time that Ewan McGregor and Mary Elizabeth Winstead shot a scene together, they were in a bathtub, mostly naked. McGregor, in a maximally unflattering wig, was sticking his gut out as far as it would go. This was on a recent afternoon in the chilly basement of a midtown hotel where McGregor and Winstead perched on a love seat, his jacket over his shoulders, his hand on her knee. Two years later, in 2019, they filmed “Birds of Prey” but did not share scenes. Now, they have reunited onscreen for “A Gentleman in Moscow,” which premiered Friday on Paramount+ and debuts Sunday on Showtime.

☆ ‘A Gentleman in Moscow’ review: Ewan McGregor traces Russian history from the prison of a hotel in Showtime series
▼ + stars: | 2024-03-29 | by ( Brian Lowry | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +3 min

CNN —Spanning decades of Russian history from the confines of a luxury hotel, “A Gentleman in Moscow” provides another strong TV showcase for Ewan McGregor, this time playing opposite his wife, Mary Elizabeth Winstead. At the same time, the show manages to be quite funny and even romantic, nicely developing the other lives that Alexander touches. Plus, there’s the added kick of seeing McGregor and Winstead (who met shooting the third season of FX’s “Fargo”) sink their teeth into such juicy, flamboyant roles. And while Alexander might not be able to leave, viewers who voluntarily check into the Hotel Metropol will have plenty of reasons to enjoy their stay. “A Gentleman in Moscow” premieres March 29 on Paramount+ with Showtime and March 31 at 9 p.m.

CNN —Hollywood star Ewan McGregor has said it was “still necessary” to have an intimacy coordinator for the sex scenes in new drama series “A Gentleman in Moscow,” even though he was performing alongside his wife Mary Elizabeth Winstead. “If you were doing a dance scene, you’d have a choreographer,” added the 52-year-old. “It’s an important part of the work now, because it’s somebody that the director and actors meet in the middle.”The couple have been married since 2022. The role of the intimacy coordinator is to support the actor in any intimate action on set, such as contact kissing, physical touch and simulated sex. Intimacy coordinators have become increasingly common in recent years, which McGregor, who has four daughters from his previous marriage to production designer Eve Mavrakis, believes is a good thing.

So, does 'Fargo' season 5 connect to previous seasons? Sienna King as Scotty Lyon and Juno Temple as Dot Lyon in the "Fargo" season five finale. Unfortunately, there aren't any overt connections between "Fargo" season five and the previous seasons, which is surprising considering the Easter eggs that have popped up before.

☆ 'Ahsoka' Episode 3 recap: 'Time to Fly' takes a big jump toward the 'Star Wars' show's future (SPOILERS)
▼ + stars: | 2023-08-30 | by ( Brian Lowry | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

Editor’s Note: The following contains spoilers about the third episode of “Ahsoka,” “Time to Fly.”CNN —After a somewhat sluggish start, “Ahsoka” felt much more on target as its third episode continued to draw upon “Star Wars Rebels” lore while mixing in abundant action and paying its respects to the original trilogy. The interactions between Ahsoka (Rosario Dawson) and Sabine (Natasha Liu Bordizzo), in particular, echoed the early training of Luke Skywalker by Obi-Wan Kenobi, and offered a reminder that the past and future of “Star Wars” run straight through the Jedi order. For her part, Hera (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) was left to grapple with the myopia of the New Republic leadership to the lingering imperial threat. Whatever the numbers, “Ahsoka” now feels as if it’s more solidly building toward its larger narrative at a brisker pace. Keep doing that, and the ratings – however you choose to measure them – should take care of themselves.

Michael Cohen and the Trump Organization cut a deal to settle his lawsuit. It's not clear how much money the Trump Organization paid to settle the case. He alleged the Trump Organization should have covered legal fees for his role in various scandals, lawsuits, and investigations that stemmed from his work for Trump. But his son Donald Trump Jr., an executive at the Trump Organization, had agreed to show up as a witness. Cohen's lawyers argued that Trump Jr. had knowledge of the agreement between Cohen and the Trump Organization to cover legal bills, and that Trump Jr. had his own legal bills covered for some of the same investigations.
