Felicity Jones and Eddie Redmayne Get Extremely High - Literally - in The Aeronauts Trailer

-

Felicity Jones and Eddie Redmayne earned plenty of award-season buzz from their collaboration in 2014's The Theory of Everything, and now they've reunited for Tom Harper's upcoming action-adventure epic, The Aeronauts. The first trailer for the film shows a glimpse at what we can expect from the story: a giant hot air balloon, chic 19th-century fashion, and plenty of near-death experiences. What more could you want?

The film is inspired by true events, tracing the real-life tale of an ambitious pair of Victorian-era adventurers who rode a hot-air balloon all the way into the stratosphere in the year 1862, setting a record for the highest anyone had flown at that time (keep in mind, airplanes weren't invented until 1903). What resulted was a dramatic fight for survival.

Redmayne is playing the part of headstrong scientist James Glaisher, who was an acclaimed astronomer, meteorologist, and aeronaut, while Jones is taking on the role of wealthy young widow Amelia Wren, who joins Glaisher in his quest for new discoveries high above the earth's surface. Watch the trailer above before The Aeronauts arrives in theaters on Dec. 6.

A 20-year-old astrophysics and economics student from New Haven, CT, Jack Atkins made quite the first impression in The Circle season two premiere. He tells viewers straight off, "I'm honestly down to go down as the biggest villain in Circle history. I don't really care." I mean, an intro package doesn't get much better than that. Kudos, Jack! Or shall we say . . . Emily? In the first episode, we learn Jack is here to play a "very strategic, manipulative, cutthroat game." Being a college student, Jack says he's a self-declared nerd but with a wild, goofy side. Nervous his authentic personality (and BDE) might cost him the $100,000 prize, he enters The Circle group chat as Emily, a girly girl from the Windy City, who also happens to be a close friend of his IRL. Jack explains in his confessional that he wants fellow competitors to look at his profile and go "'That's a face I can trust.'" "When it comes to strategy ther...

What Selling Tampa Tells Us About Diversity in Real Estate and Selling Sunset

-

When it comes to reality TV on Netflix, Selling Sunset is prime real estate (pun intended). Season four dropped on Nov. 24 , and a brand-new spinoff, Selling Tampa , followed on Dec. 15. Unlike Selling Sunset , which follows the drama behind the elite real estate brokerage firm The Oppenheim Group , Selling Tampa spotlights a Florida-based, women-led, Black-owned business, Allure Realty. The show adds much-needed representation to Netflix's real estate reality TV lineup. But Selling Tampa 's creation compels us to take a hard look at Selling Sunset and the representation among its agents in an industry that lacks diversity. In its first season, the cast of Selling Sunset was all white. Agents like Amanza Smith (a mixed-race Black woman) and Vanessa Villela (who is Mexican) joined The Oppenheim Group in seasons two and four, respectively, but most of the nine women dishing the drama on screen on Selling Sunset remain white. Looking at the numbers, this isn't too far ...
