Now that The Tudors is long gone, the folks over at Showtime are attempting to fill the void with their brand new historical series, The Borgias. Before the show premieres tonight, here's a rundown on everything you need to know. What it's about: Jeremy Irons stars as Rodrigo Borgia, a cardinal who rises to power when he seizes the Roman papacy through corrupt means during the Renaissance. As Read more

Appaloosa is a totally passable and — to my surprise — fun (and funny) Western movie. I'm amazed Ed Harris, the star/director/co-writer of the film, hasn't played more gunslingers, because his face was built for it. Under the shadow of a wide-brimmed hat, his skin looks believably weathered and creased, his bone structure sturdy and chiseled. By contrast, Harris's costar, Viggo Mortensen, is Read more
Appaloosa hasn't really been on my radar since the casting news was first announced over a year ago, which I find odd, especially since it stars some pretty big names, is directed by Ed Harris, and looks all Western epic-y. By contrast, we've had to see every new photo and poster and trailer for Australia as that film has been in production — and that one's coming out two months after this Read more

Best Week Ever is holding a quirk-off between Daniel Day-Lewis and Jeremy Irons. LilSugar wants to know if you can handle any Read more
Get ready to bend your brain as you watch the trailer for The Words, starring Bradley Cooper as a writer.

Now that's an idea I can get behind. The Avengers rounds up an all-star group of comic book heroes who must get over their inflated egos and differences to take down a villain and save the world. It's a simple enough concept, and Read more
This question is from a Group Therapy post in our TrèsSugar Community. Add your advice in the comments! I am 26 and since I can remember I've always had a thing for older guys. My first big celebrity crush was Ralph Fiennes in The English Patient and Jeremy Irons in The Mission - which is pretty weird but those actors/movies are pretty awesome and I'm sure many women have felt the same.

Robert Downey Jr. stuck close by his wife Susan Downey at this evening's world premiere of The Avengers at El Capitan Theatre in LA. It was Susan's first red carpet outing since giving birth to their new son Exton in early February. The Avengers boasts quite the star-studded cast, but one person missing was the leading lady to RDJ's Iron Man, Pepper Potts. Gwyneth Paltrow missed out on this Read more
