Hollywood star Owen Wilson claimed that Marvel 'scolded' him 'multiple times' for sharing information on his 'Loki' role.

According to Fox News, Wilson shared that the studio is "kind of uptight" when it came to the actor sharing details about the "Loki" series. "Yeah, we're doing that. Yeah, Tom [Hiddleston] is great," Wilson said of being back on set for season two. "Doing 'Loki,' and we're filming that now in London."

Mobius M. Mobius, played by Wilson, is the series' main character. Tom Hiddleston, who plays the lead role, Sophia Di Martino, Jonathan Majors, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Tara Strong, and Sasha Lane all appear alongside him.

Wilson refrained from responding to several questions during the interview with the outlet because he had already been "scolded" by Marvel.

"Well, I do think that... you know, we'll see what happens with this one," he said. "I immediately get kind of self-conscious because they're so kind of uptight."

Wilson was asked by "Secret Headquarters" co-director Ariel Schulman about the scolding.

"Yes," Wilson said about being scolded. "Yeah, multiple times."

The new Paramount+ film "Secret Headquarters," which is presently streaming on Paramount+, stars the "Wedding Crashers" actor as The Guard. In the recently released movie, he co-stars with Michael Pena and Jesse Williams.

In the summer of 2023, "Loki's" second season is scheduled to premiere. Hiddleston, the series' actor, admitted in a 2019 appearance on "The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon" that he never sought out the part of Loki and instead was vying for that of his brother, Thor.

"Basically, at the time, they were looking for less well-established actors, so that the audience didn't have an association," the Broadway star told the late-night TV host.

"They just wanted people to see these new characters, these new actors, and the remit was, if you're over 6 foot and you've got blonde hair, you can come have a pop at it," he said. "So... I never auditioned for Loki. I only auditioned for Thor, which is nuts."

The second season of "Loki" is due in the summer of 2023.

​Charli XCX defends BRIT awards see through dress: 'We're in the free the nipple era'

At the 2025 BRIT Awards, Charli XCX made headlines not just for scooping up a handful of awards, but also for her daring fashion choice. The pop star arrived at the event in a sheer black dress by designer Dilara Findikoglu, which left very little to the imagination. While Charli took home major honours like Album of the Year and Artist of the Year, her outfit sparked conversations and debate among viewers.

Over 800 complaints reportedly landed at Britain's communications regulator Ofcom after the awards aired, many focusing on Charli’s see-through look and a raunchy performance by fellow artist Sabrina Carpenter. ITV, which broadcasted the event, was said to be less than pleased with Charli’s appearance, particularly when it came to what they referred to as “nipple complaints.”

In the world of celebrities, every public appearance and gesture is scrutinised under the microscope of social media.
The latest to face the ire of netizens is reality TV star and beauty mogul Kylie Jenner, who was spotted sharing a kiss with actor Timothée Chalamet during a tennis match. The moment, captured by onlookers and shared widely online, has sparked criticism, with many claiming Jenner appeared to be 'forcing it.
The incident occurred at a high-profile tennis event, where Jenner and Chalamet were seen sitting courtside, enjoying the match.

Videos and photos of the moment quickly went viral, with social media users dissecting the interaction.
Many netizens took to platforms like Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok to express their opinions, with a significant number suggesting the kiss seemed awkward or staged. One user wrote, 'Why does it look like Kylie was forcing it? That was so uncomfortable to watch.' Another commented, 'Timothée looked like he didn’t even see it coming. This feels so performative.' Memes and jokes about the incident flooded the internet, with some comparing the moment to cringe-worthy scenes from films or TV shows.
The backlash highlights the intense scrutiny celebrities face in their personal and public lives. For Jenner, who has built a billion-dollar empire through her cosmetics brand and social media presence, this is not the first time she has been at the centre of online criticism.

Did Govinda really turn down James Cameron’s 'Avatar' and £1.7 million offer?

In a recent interview with veteran actor Mukesh Khanna, Bollywood star Govinda revealed that he was once offered a role in James Cameron’s 2009 blockbuster Avatar. According to Govinda, the Hollywood director offered him a whopping £1.7 M (Rs 18 crore) for the lead role, which eventually went to Sam Worthington. The actor also claimed that he was the one who suggested the film’s title to Cameron.

Govinda shared that the opportunity arose after a chance meeting with a Sikh businessman in the US. “I had given him a business idea that worked well for him. Years later, he introduced me to James Cameron,” he recalled. The two discussed the project over dinner, where Govinda proposed the title Avatar. However, he turned down the role after learning that the character was physically disabled. “James told me the hero was handicapped. I said, ‘I’m not doing this film,’” Govinda explained. He also expressed concerns about the physical demands of the role, including body paint which he felt would take a toll on his health.
