How music cues helped actors harness emotion in 'Monoceros,' a new Canadian musical

Complex characters represented with sensitive and powerful performance is part of what draws audiences to drama, including live theatre. This is no less the case for musical theatre — but what is the role of music in character development? Part of my research has been concerned with developing a method for young actors to begin building characters that involves listening to subtle cues in the music. For example, a rising melodic line could be...

Famous models turned musicians

It is safe to say that many famous women stared their careers as models. It's common to find actresses who used to be models, for instance. But what about music?

Yet there are also some success stories that are worth revisiting. Browse through the following gallery and get to know the models who've dabbled in music.

Celebrities with the strangest on-set demands

Hollywood is full of stars with unusual requests, both on set and in their contracts. From taking home entire movie wardrobes to refusing to let their characters die, these celebrities made sure things were done their way behind the scenes. Reese Witherspoon made sure Elle Woods stayed in her closet long after filming wrapped on ‘Legally Blonde 2: Red, White & Blonde’. During an appearance on ‘The Graham Norton Show’ in 2019, she revealed she had it written into her contract that she could keep all of her costumes, including an incredible 77 pairs of Jimmy Choo heels. Queen Latifah also negotiated a memorable clause, but hers had nothing to do with fashion. After several of her characters met unfortunate ends in films like ‘Set It Off’, ‘Sphere’, and ‘The Bone Collector’, she joked to Entertainment Tonight, "You gotta put a no death clause in these contracts so they can't just kill me off like this. I'm never gonna get a sequel in!" Nicolas Cage took things even further while filming a scene for the 1988 movie ‘Vampire's Kiss’. According to the film's DVD commentary, Cage actually pushed to use a real bat instead of a mechanical one and even sent a production assistant to try to catch one before director Robert Bierman convinced him the idea was far too dangerous. Then there's Samuel L. Jackson, whose contracts are a little more relaxing. Speaking to CNN, the actor revealed he always negotiates enough free time to play golf at least twice a week during filming. He even explained that he enjoys golf "because it's a perfect game for an only child… you get responsibility for everything you do bad, and you get all the credit for everything you do well.” Daniel Day-Lewis took method acting to a whole other level while filming the 2012 drama ‘Lincoln’. His co-star Lukas Haas later revealed that everyone on set, including even the director, Steven Spielberg, had to address him as "Mr. President" to help him remain in character as former US President Abraham Lincoln.

It started as a horror film - then music changed everything

Sinners uses music as far more than atmosphere, weaving blues, folk traditions, and musical storytelling into the heart of its narrative. Songs reveal hidden emotions, preserve cultural memory, and transform ordinary scenes into moments of spiritual and historical significance. Along the way, the film blurs the line between horror, drama, and musical theater in ways few modern movies attempt. Every performance deepens the characters while exploring themes of identity, ancestry, assimilation, and resistance. This is the fascinating story of how Sinners turns music into one of the film's most powerful storytelling tools.

Actors who hated their iconic on-screen costumes

Part of the magic of being an actor is completely disappearing into a role. Sometimes, however, that magic act relies heavily on a physical transformation as opposed to merely adopting new behaviorisms. Physical transformations like getting buff can have the added bonus of, well, being buff, but costumes are where things get a little annoying. And by "a little," we mean a lot. From having to sit through eight torturous hours' worth of makeup, to sweating dangerous amounts inside full-body suits during long shoot days, many actors' most iconic roles also feature the costumes they hated most. Click through to see which costumes actors hated the most, and why exactly they were so tormented by them.
