Warner Bros.' fantasy musical "Wonka," boosted by the star power of Timothee Chalamet, enjoyed a sweet opening in North American theaters this weekend after an equally strong debut overseas, industry watchers reported on Dec. 17.

The Bulgarian actress Irmena Chichikova participated in 2 episodes of the television miniseries "Secret Invasion" and the heroine is called Kreega. This can be seen on the IMDB movie information site.

In addition to her, another Bulgarian actor - Ventsislav Yankov, takes part in the TV show, in the role of an FSB commander. He also appears in two of the series' episodes.

Emilia Clarke was thrilled to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but a near accident involving Samuel L. Jackson almost sent her reeling.

"I nearly ran him over," the "Game of Thrones" star revealed to Yahoo Entertainment in a video interview published on June 23, in reference to a mishap on the set of the new MCU series "Secret Invasion."

After a bleak reimagining of "A Christmas Carol" in 2019, Steven Knight is back to give another Charles Dickens tale, "Great Expectations," similar treatment, with equally grim results. While the underlying story is better suited to such tinkering, even Olivia Colman's toothy performance can't salvage this six-part production, meaning viewers should set their expectations accordingly.

Sci-fi epic blockbuster "Dune" and Jane Campion's dark Western "The Power Of The Dog" lead the nominations for this year's British Academy Film Awards, with Benedict Cumberbatch, Leonardo DiCaprio and Lady Gaga among those up for leading actor awards.

"I was on location when I found out about the nomination. The words in Bulgarian definitely make me happiest, because I am and will always remain a Bulgarian girl. I'm proud of that.' That's what said exclusively for NOVA TV Maria Bakalova, our first actress to receive an Oscar nomination.

Maria Bakalova was ecstatic on Sunday when she was awarded the Best Supporting Actress award at the 2021 Critics' Choice Awards.

The 24-year-old Bulgarian actress had been praised by critics and audiences alike for her hilarious turn in the movie, which marked her American film debut.

After a year where the pandemic nearly emptied movie theaters, Netflix dominated nominations to the 78th Golden Globe Awards on Feb. 3, with David Fincher's "Mank" leading film nominees with six nods and "The Crown" topping all television series.

Greek film editor Giorgos Mavropsaridis, known from his cooperation with filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos, became a member of the US Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, joining 842 new members from 59 countries.
Mavropsaridis was nominated last year for an Oscar for the 2018 period comedy The Favourite and won an Eddie award for the Best edited feature film for the same movie.

Yorgos Lanthimos' period drama "The Favourite" won one Academy Award Sunday.

The award went to Olivia Colman for Best Actress.
