We live in an age of sharing, where every moment is captured and sent into the world for liking, commenting, judging and making us feel like we have more friends than we do. As a result, the world seems so much smaller than it is, and one revolution to come out of the social media age is that we can connect with some of our icons and heroes with the click of a button, getting a glimpse into the elusive world of the show business. Here with the feature Cool Pics From Around the Web we will assemble some of the coolest, funniest, and possibly revealing photographs of the week from some of the world’s biggest stars. Don’t worry, no food pics in sight…unless someone made a dope cake in the shape of R2-D2.
This week’s recap of cool pics is a mixture of bittersweet and just all-around sweet. A big bulk comes from celebs and organizations paying tribute to the late Harry Dean Stanton, who passed last week. As well, we have the late-great James Gandolfini horsing around with his WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE director Spike Jonze BTS. As for the fun stuff, we have some more BTS glimpses at the HAN SOLO movie, one featuring actor Paul Bettany and the other teasing a potentially huge scene. There was also a marking of WONDER WOMAN’s Blu-ray release, in which tons of drones were flown in the sky to form shapes such as the WW symbol, Wonder Woman herself and more. In an especially cool pic for GAME OF THRONES fans, actress Emilia Clarke did what she has been holding off on for years, and finally dyed her hair the shade of white/blonde her character, Daenerys Targaryen, has on the show. This is in prep for the final season, and actually, begs a few questions as to why she can’t wear the wig this season. That, and she just looks f@cking awesome! Oh, and how can we forget the bromance between HELLBOY: RISE OF THE BLOOD QUEEN actor Daniel Dae Kim and the actor who once had his role, Ed Skrein?
