Lily Tomlin, Gloria Allred, TV producer Marta Kauffman and others mounted a picket line outside Amazon Studio in Hollywood Friday, demanding that studios put in place stronger abortion protections for film industry employees working in states that have enacted stricter abortion laws. As the writers strike continues, a group of activists with the group “Showrunners for Abortion Rights” jumped in to use the strike to push their own cause, with Tomlin urging writers to shoehorn abortion topics into their scripts, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

On Thursday, FOX Sports insider Jay Glazer shared a nice story about the Pittsburgh Steelers head coach. Glazer reported that Tomlin had spotted some kids fighting in the street, stopped his car and broke things up. After calming tensions, Tomlin allegedly invited the kids to Steelers camp where they met with players and even took part in some mock drills. But is that really how things went down? Several people have taken to social media to contradict Glazer’s version of events and point out that Tomlin has a long-standing relationship with The Jasmine Nyree Campus, where the kids were from....

Paramount is set to go to the future with 2084, a sci-fi film from The Batman writer Mattson Tomlin. The project is being described as a “spiritual sister” to George Orwell’s classic 1984, which really just sounds like they’re adapting 1984 but changing the year so it’s no longer dated. The script is also described as having a tone similar to both The Matrix and Inception. THR has the scoop on 2084, which was just snapped up by Paramount. Lorenzo di Bonaventura will produce. And just what is this movie about? Don’t ask, because no one is saying. Instead, the...

The Pittsburgh Steelers “butchered” attempts to appear unified by sitting out the national anthem Sunday, the lone player to appear on the field revealed Monday. “This national anthem ordeal has been out of control, and there’s a lot of blame on myself,” lineman Alejandro Villanueva said Monday. SNIP “Every single time I see that picture of me standing by myself, I feel embarrassed,” he said.

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin indicated Sunday night that he did not want offensive tackle Alejandro Villanueva to stand for the national anthem, instead of sitting it out with the rest of his teammates. Villanueva, a former Army Ranger who served three tours in Afghanistan, was the only Steelers player to stand for the anthem.

George Clooney has denied being responsible for the public release of embarrassing out-takes showing I Heart Huckabees director David O Russell yelling at actor Lily Tomlin. Clooney contacted the US gossip sites Radaronline.com and Defamer.com late last week to make clear it was not he who released the footage of the dustups, which found its way on to many websites and blogs. Both sites had suggested the Oscar-winning actor might be the source because of his well-publicised feud with Russell, which began on the set of the 1999 (first) Gulf war drama Three Kings. Clooney had also recently been working...
