Helen Mirren – OMG Check It Out ! https://omgcheckitout.com Wed, 30 Nov 2022 09:25:48 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.8.3 Harrison Ford & Helen Mirren Join Forces in the Trailer for “1923” https://omgcheckitout.com/harrison-ford-helen-mirren-join-forces-in-official-trailer-for-yellowstone-prequel-1923/ Wed, 30 Nov 2022 06:43:00 +0000 https://omgcheckitout.com/?p=39721 The Yellowstone universe is constantly expanding, and another spin-off series is just around the corner. Paramount+ just dropped the first full trailer for the highly-anticipated prequel series 1923, starring Hollywood veterans Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren.

Like the show’s name suggest, this series takes us back to the early years of the 20th century “when pandemics, historic drought, the end of Prohibition, and the Great Depression all plague the mountain west, and the Duttons who call it home.”

The prequel series centers on Jacob Dutton, the patriarch of the Yellowstone ranch, and his wife Cara, as they try to take care of their Montana estate during one of the most trying times in American history.

In addition to Ford and Mirren, 1923 will also star Jerome Flynn, Jennifer Ehle, Timothy Dalton, Sebastian Roché, Darren Mann, Michelle Randolph, and James Badge Dale. It’s the second prequel to Yellowstone, following the success of 1883, starring Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, and Sam Elliott.

1923 will premiere on Paramount+ on December 18, following the latest episode of Yellowstone. The streamer already ordered two seasons of the series, featuring eight episodes each. Another spin-off titled 6666 is set to premiere next year and it’s taking place on the Four Sixes Ranch in Texas.

Jane Fonda and Helen Mirren Rocked the L’Oreal Runway in Paris Fashion Week https://omgcheckitout.com/jane-fonda-helen-mirren-rocked-loreal-runway-paris-fashion-week/ Wed, 04 Oct 2017 06:21:26 +0000 http://omgcheckitout.com/?p=13227 Alongside Super models Adriana Lima and Winnie Harlow, Helen Mirren and Jane Fonda walked the catwalk of the L’Oreal Fashion Show on Sunday.

The duo had a blast on the catwalk and looked absolutely gorgeous. Mirren strutted in a trench coat and wide patterned pants accessorizing with black shoes and a cane, while Fonda was clad in a full-length tiger stripe gown with a diamond necklace topping off the look.

In 2014, the then 69-year-old Mirren became a L’Oreal beauty ambassador. “It was about bloody time!” Mirren said of the choice. “I thought, at last there has been a shift [in the fashion industry] – I’m talking about age and beauty, but also diversity.”

The two totally ruled the runway. Mirren looked stunning capping her walk with a fierce pose. Fonda on the other hand had lots of fun when she spotted someone she knew in the crowd and gave them a big wave. The Grace and Frankie star also recently spoke with ET saying that she’s “about as happy as [she’s] ever been,” working hard to accomplish all that she did and staying healthy.

Helen Mirren Hopes to do another “Fast & Furious” Film https://omgcheckitout.com/helen-mirren-hopes-another-fast-furious-film/ Mon, 11 Sep 2017 05:17:40 +0000 http://omgcheckitout.com/?p=11555 With the hopes of returning for next installment of the Fast & Furious franchise, Helen Mirren says that this time she wants to do some driving.

In The Fate of the Furious, Mirren played Magdalene Shaw, the matriarch of the villainous Shaw clan, including Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham) and Owen Shaw (Luke Evans). The actress told reporters at the Toronto International Film Festival on Saturday, that “[she] would love to come back. But guys, I want to drive next time.”

Mirren is a huge fan of the franchise. Earlier this year she told Buzzed that she practically begged to be included in one of the films. “They very kindly wrote me in and that was really sweet of them and I love those guys, they’re fantastic.”

Mirren told EW that she thinks that the familial aspect of the Fast & Furious films is one of the reasons the films have become so popular, an aspect she’s always loved.

“I think that’s one of the reasons they’re popular films, because that is the one element that everybody all over the world can identify with simply, easily, and directly, so it’s great to see this other level being brought in with the different generations of the family, the fact that family actually goes on through many generations over long periods of time.”
