Director David Fincher, whose  name has often been linked to "Star Wars" films, says he will  stay away from the frachise as it comes with a lot of  pressure.
The Oscar-nominated director, best known for his  thrillers such as "Se7en", "Fight Club", "The Social Network"  and "Gone Girl", was in the running to direct "The Force  Awakens", which was ultimately helmed by JJ Abrams.
Fincher says he spoke with Lucasfilm chief Kathleen  Kennedy about the job at that time.
"I can't imagine the kind of intestinal fortitude one has  to have following up the success of these last two," he told  Empire in an interview.
"That's a whole other level. One is that you have to  endure the withering abuse of Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher,  and the other is you have to live up to a billion or a  billion-five, and that becomes its own kind of pressure."
"Star Wars" has not been an easy assignment for many  directors. "Episode IX" director Colin Trevorrow stepped down  from the film in September amid ...

The "Sliver" star was taken to a hospital after she  collapsed at her Los Angeles house.
After her "massive brain hemorrhage and stroke", Stone  was left with a "brain seizure condition" for which she still  takes medication, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

"It's a little bit like you see in the movies when Zeus  hits somebody with a lightning bolt and they just go flying.  It's a little bit like I felt like I was hit by that lightning  bolt. I don't know how long I was on the floor. It was three  days before somebody took me to the hospital," Stone, 59,  said.
The doctors, the actor said, were going to send her home  after six days in hospital as they thought she was "acting".

Supermodel-singer Grace Jones says  it is sad that models today are trying to achieve a size zero  body and likens the figure to "the walking dead".
The 69-year-old model says she is glad that she no more  walks the ramp as she would not have been able to dress in  smaller sizes, reports The Guardian.
"I'm glad I'm not doing it now. I'd probably be dead.  Everybody's so skinny. Size zero is like the walking dead. Not  sexy at all. When I modelled, I would normally be a model size  six, eight, though my shoulders are wide, it's hard to make  them fit into things.
"Now I can't get into model sizes, because they're really  small. When it comes to fashion, I'm loyal. I love Issey  Miyake, Alaia, Kenzo, Philip Treacy," says Jones.
She added she was going to open a foundation in her  mother's name for "teaching sewing and creating fashion".

The actor also revealed she was surprised by the news  that there would be a "Mamma Mia!" sequel.
"When they told me about that, I thought: but surely  they've used up all the bloody songs? But they'd done another  and it's really good. I love singing. And we had such a laugh  on the first one.

Actor Famke Janssen says  rampant sexism and ageism in Hollywood were the reasons that  triggered her departure from the "X-Men" series.
The 52-year-old actor, who essayed the role of  telekinetic mutant Jean Grey/ Phoenix in the first four  installments of the popular series, says she wanted to stay on  board the movies but the makers went in for Sophie Turner to  play the younger version of her character, reports Us Weekly.
"I didn't give up, they gave up on me. There's a big  difference. It was their (producers) decision, you know? It's  like what happens in life. You get, well not to me thankfully.  But people, just like men trade women in for a younger model  version. It's like that," says Janssen.
Turner joined the series from the 2016 film "X-Men:  Apocalypse" and is due to star in the next "X-Men: Dark  Phoenix".
The actor adds it is ironic the film franchise allows  older versions of Professor X (Patrick Stewart, James McAvoy)  and Magneto (Ian McKellen, Micheal Fassbender) ..

Cara Delevingne says acting has  made her understand herself better.
The 25-year-old star believes that her career as a model  provided her with a way of avoiding her problems but acting  helped her deal with them.
"Modelling came at a time in my life where I wanted to  please people. I was just doing things to run away from my own  problems. I wasn't dealing with things that were going on  emotionally. That's why I ended up being unhappy.
"Being an actor helped me reflect on my own emotions, be  able to express them more, be in the moment," Delevingne tells  Australia's Stellar magazine.

A Palestinian film festival says it  has cancelled the screening of a movie by a Lebanese-French  director following pressure from activists because he shot a  previous film in Israel.
"The Insult," the latest movie by director Ziad Doueiri,  was set to be screened at the Palestinian Days of Cinema  festival and was competing for its top award. But the  screening was canceled Sunday amid pressure by activists who  oppose the normalisation of ties with Israel.
Doueiri's previous movie "The Attack," about a  Palestinian surgeon living in Tel Aviv who discovers that his  wife carried out a deadly suicide attack, was filmed in Israel  and featured several Israeli actors.
The decision to cancel the screening comes after Lebanese  authorities briefly detained Doueiri last month because of his  visits to Israel.

Katherine Kendall has revealed that  she was afraid to call out Hollywood producer Harvey Weistein  on sexual harassment as the actor believes she would have been  "blackballed" from the industry.
Earlier this month, the 48-year-old actor publicly  alleged that the media mogul had harassed her in his apartment  in 1993.
Kendall had claimed that Weinstein "literally chased" her  and stopped her from escaping from the room.
In an interview recorded in July and obtained by the  Observer, the "Swingers" actor said she feared she would be  judged for speaking the truth.
"You make yourself a target in a way - I was awful scared  that I would be judged, even blackballed. They could make it  so you don't work," she said.
Kendall said it took her 25 years to raise her voice also  because it would attract scrutiny, which would be difficult  for her to face.
"I never went to the press because I was too scared. I  didn't want attention brought on me for that, intuitively I  didn't want it. I ...

Seeking to showcase the cultural  heritage of Bihar and inspire the young generation to carry  forward the tradition of Chhath Puja, a new video has been  launched online.
The over seven-minute video titled 'Kabahu Na Chhooti  Chhath' ('Never Do I Miss Chhath'), directed by a National  Award-winning filmmaker, is bound to trigger nostalgia and  homesickness among people who have migrated from Bihar,  Jharkhand and Uttar Pradesh to other states and abroad.
Nitin Chandra (37), who helmed the project that was  partially crowd-funded, and shot over two days in Mumbai, says  the idea was also to celebrate the four-day festival as well  as to "break the stereotypes" surrounding it.
Chhath Puja is observed mainly in Bihar, Jharkhand and  parts of Uttar Pradesh. This year, the festival will be  celebrated from October 24 to 27.
"The festival is organic in its approach and rich in  beauty, but many of the young generation, including those from  Bihar, do not fully appreciate its importance," ..
