How did Steven Spielberg make a cool 100,000 pounds? What is Oscar winner Holly Hunter doing as a tennis player? What is the usual suspect Kevin Spacey up to these days?
Director Steven Spielberg will keep the 100,000 he was awarded against American Airlines last year for psychological trauma. He was among 13 passengers on a plane forced to make an emergency landing after it hit a thunderstorm. The airline lost the appeal.
Oscar-winning star of The Piano Holly Hunter will play tennis legend Billie Jean King in a new TV movie about King`s famous battle-of-the-sexes tennis match against Bobby Riggs in 1972. King destroyed the chauvinist Riggs in a two-set match that made sporting history.
Star of the hit Big Momma`s House Martin Lawrence is about to get a huge pay rise. The all-action funny man is being wooed to star in the forthcoming comedy Black Knight and will reputedly receive more than 10 million for a share of the profits in his effort.
Kevin Spacey is to take over from Will Smith as the lead in the sci-fi drama K-PAX. In the film, the edgy Usual Suspect will play a mental patient, who tells an examining psychiatrist he`s not really of this earth, but actually from a galaxy far, far away. Spaced out or what?
