A fake 'James Bond' trailer starring Henry Cavill has racked up millions of views online. The fake trailer introduces Cavill as the new Bond using a mix of footage from other movies and AI. It also ambitiously casts Margot Robbie as a Bond girl. So far the wannabe trailer featuring Cavill and Robbie has generated 2.3 million viewers, presumably driven by a mix of fans enjoying it as a "what-if" effort along with some people being fooled by it.

from a number of health problems, including
leptomeninges disease and brain inflammation.
We still don't know where
the dolphin got the virus and
more research needs to be done, Richard Webby, Director of the World Health
Organization Collaborating Center for Studies
on the Ecology of Influenza in Animals and Birds at
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, via 'Newsweek'.

Anne Hathaway is praising Christopher Nolan for coming to her side during the days of the toxic "Hathahate" movement. The actress spoke about the moment in time in a new profile with Vanity Fair and said that co-hosting the 2013 Oscars and taking home the honor for best supporting actress for 'Les Misérables' marked a tipping point of over exposure where her online and media reputation turned "toxic" — to the point where she says it cost her movie roles.
