Chris Hemsworth

Warner Bros. isn't resting on its " Barbie " laurels: The 100-year studio has its sights on a record-breaking 2024 as well, with a release slate that includes a new Mad Max film, " Furiosa," Kevin Costner's two-part Western epic, " Horizon: An American Saga, " the " Beetlejuice " sequel, and "Joker: Folie à Deux," which brings Lady Gaga to Gotham City.

Sony's "Bullet Train" held the top spot for the second week running in the North American box office, industry watcher Exhibitor Relations estimated on Aug. 14 during a relatively flat mid-August period of moviegoing.

Australian actor and "Thor" avenger Chris Hemsworth is the world's sexiest man, the US magazine People said Wednesday.
      
The honor was announced on the late night show hosted by ABC television presenter Jimmy Kimmel, and in the magazine itself.
      

Comic book superhero character Thor, who first appeared in 1962 and is based on the Norse hammer-wielding god, will now be a woman, publisher Marvel Comics said on Tuesday.
   
The publisher said the female Thor is an effort to bring new readers and to appeal to women and girls, whom Marvel said have long been ignored in comics.
