The Hollywood Reporter says Margot Robbie will be starring in a female-led Pirates of the Caribbean movie.
Christina Hodson, the screenwriter on Robbie’s Harley Quinn movie Birds of Prey, is set to write the new female-fronted film.
The film will not be a formal spin-off of the Disney franchise, but instead will be a separate original story with new characters.
It’s in the early stages of development.
#Gym
Survey: 1 in 4 Americans will not return to the gym, even after the pandemic.
The survey asked Americans who exercise at least twice a week on their attitudes in the “corona age” and found 24% are over them.
However, four in 10 say they will be returning to the gym at the same rate or more once it opens back up.
42% say they have a home gym set-up that they prefer over their membership gym.
And 83% of people agreed they’d feel much more comfortable in gyms if everybody was wearing a mask.
#CamNewton
He’s the new quarterback of the New England Patriots.
According to ESPN, he and New England settled on a “one-year, incentive-laden” contract.
The Carolina Panthers had released the quarterback after nine seasons after shoulder and foot injuries have limited him over the past year.
When healthy, he’s had at least 3000 passing yards and 300 rushing yards each season from 2011-2018, won NFL MVP in 2015 and led the Panthers to the Super Bowl.
#Fireworks
Sales are booming (pun intended) all across the country this year!
Experts say it could be for a number of reasons, including the coronavirus canceling many summer events and professional fireworks displays.
It could also be because people are just bored and tired of being cooped up.
Since Memorial Day, sales have been off the charts for retail fireworks outlets, which isn’t typical, as this past weekend is when sales would be ramping up.
Sales of “safe and sane” fireworks at temporary stands just went up this weekend.
