After the third installment in 2014, the question was up in the air about what to do with “The Expendables” franchise, which, laughable as it may be, has earned over $800 million worldwide across three movies. One idea that was tossed around and didn’t really go anywhere was launching an event series on Fox, in which formerly famous TV stars would come together for a probably hokey adventure.

Ryan Reynolds Shoots Scene as Deadpool for ‘Logan’ (Exclusive)
10 hours ago | The Wrap | See recent The Wrap news »
Ryan Reynolds recently shot a scene as Deadpool for 2017’s Logan, TheWrap has exclusively learned. An individual with knowledge of the project tells TheWrap the Deadpool scene in Logan will most likely become a post-credit scene. Fox declined to comment. This will actually be Reynolds’ second time playing Deadpool in a Wolverine film. In 2009’s X-Men Origins: Wolverine, he played a very different version of the antihero. In that film, the Merc With a Mouth ends up having no mouth at all — but far more powers than he displayed in this year’s standalone Deadpool movie, which reimagined Deadpool as much wittier. »

1 hour ago | Variety - Film News | See recent Variety - Film News news »
Debbie Reynolds and Carrie Fisher, who both died this week, rose to some of the highest peaks in Hollywood during their fabled movie careers. But life wasn’t always glamorous for this mother-daughter duo. In fact, both Reynolds and Fisher became almost as famous for their off-screen challenges as for their onscreen triumphs: Debbie’s relationships with men, Carrie’s drug abuse and mental health issues, the Elizabeth Taylor scandal.
In this interview in which they appeared together on “Oprah” in 2011, Reynolds and Fisher show off their razor-sharp wit and humor in recalling the darker days and show why, as a family, they have been so resilient.
In the 40-plus minute footage, the duo also perform a medley of “You Made Me Love You” and “Happy Days Are Here Again” to the delight of the audience.
Reynolds, 84, died suddenly on Wednesday only one day after her daughter, 60, died of heart failure. »

Debbie Reynolds, aged 84, dies one day after daughter Carrie FisherAppreciation: the Hollywood aristocrat who was a vitamin boost for the heart
When Debbie Reynolds, wearing a skimpy pink flapper’s dress, burst out of an enormous cake at a Hollywood party in Singin’ in the Rain (1952), she simultaneously burst into screen stardom.
In fact, it was the sixth film appearance of Reynolds, who has died aged 84, but her first starring role.

The gamble paid off, but not without some sweat and strain.
