Jake Gyllenhaal will play former Paramount executive and producer Robert Evans, who passed away in 2019. Evans brought Coppola to…

If you’re someone who grew up in the 90s, chances are you wanted (or managed to get) Power Rangers action figures for birthdays or holidays. The “Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers” toys followed in the footsteps of such hot ticket items as Cabbage Patch Dolls, Beanie Babies, and Furbys (right around the same time, actually). We have distinct memories of people lining up at places like KayBee Toys and Toys R Us to try and find these zord-drivin’ figures.Luckily for you fans, Hasbro is bringing one of the classic Power Ranger action figure releases back for a limited time to WalMart…

From the voice of “Guardians of the Galaxy” character Groot to Dom Toretto in the “Fast and Furious” franchise….we’re not sure how we feel about the notion of Vin Diesel recording dance tracks, but that’s exactly what he’s done.Diesel stopped by “The Kelly Clarkson Show” to debut the single, “Feel Like I Do.”No, sadly, this isn’t a Peter Frampton cover. You can watch the performance here.
