Julia Garner reveals intense audition process for Madonna biopic, had to 'convince her that I can dance'New Foto - Julia Garner reveals intense audition process for Madonna biopic, had to 'convince her that I can dance'

Tim P. Whitby/Getty; Fryderyk Gabowicz/picture alliance via Getty Julia Garner recently discussed the intense audition process for Madonna's planned biopic. EW previously reported that Garner was still attached to star as Madonna after the film's delay. Garner said on theSmartLesspodcast that the film is "supposed to still happen." Julia Garnerhad to tackle some difficult preparation material, girl, ahead of landing the role ofMadonnain the pop icon'slong-gestating,self-directed biopic. TheFantastic Four: First Stepsactress andOzarkalum was a guest on Monday's episode of theSmartLesspodcast, during which she told cohostsWill Arnett,Sean Hayes, andJason Batemanthat the audition process for the movie was an intimidating one — and that the delayed film is, to her knowledge, still happening. "I just remembered, were you supposed to play Madonna at some point? Is that going to still happen?" Hayes asked, with the 31-year-old responding, "Yeah, I mean, that's supposed to still happen." She then fielded inquiries about landing the role, telling the trio that she's "such a fan of Madonna's" and "grew up listening" to the legendary pop star. Michael Putland/Getty "It just came about. I knew they were doing a project, making a movie about it, and then I went out to audition," Garner recalled. "I kind of just wanted to see if I could do it, because I wasn't a trained dancer and I had to learn how to dance and then dance in front of her and convince her that I can dance, basically, and sing. And sing with her!" To calm her nerves, the three-time Emmy winner said that she "just thought, 'Okay, what would Madonna do?' Which is convince you that she deserves, you know, to be in this room, and I owned it. I was kind of like, 'You can take it or leave it, but if you leave it, if I leave, then that's on you.'"Garner again confirmed that the film is still in the works. "But I also feel like anything that's great" indeed "takes a long time" to come to fruition. EW has reached out to representatives for Madonna for more information. Garner first landed the role in 2022, but the project wasdelayed and subsequently removed from Universal's slate in early 2023so Madonna could travel the world on her successful Celebration tour. On the tour, Madonna regularly brought special guests on stage to perform with her,including Garner, who joined Madonna for a segment themed to the hit "Vogue"in New York City. Madonnaeventually returned to work on the film in 2024, and EW confirmed at the time that Garner was still attached to star. 20th Century Studios/Marvel Studios Last July, Madonnashared on Instagrama glimpse of herself revising the movie's screenplay while seated behind a typewriter, with a photo showing that the previously untitled film was, at least then, titledWho's That Girl— a nod to both Madonna's 1987 comedy film and its accompanying No. 1-charting soundtrack single of the same name. Oscar-winning writer Diablo Cody and Madonna finished work on their version of the screenplay in 2021, with theJunoscribedeparting the film to work on other projectsafter that. Madonna then partnered with Erin Cressida Wilson on the story, which she previously indicated would follow her "struggle as an artist trying to survive in a man's world as a woman, and really just the journey." She went on to describe the time in her life as a "happy, sad, mad, crazy, good, bad, and ugly" tale of the making of a superstar, including such milestones as her rise through the entertainment industry, releasing"Like a Prayer,"starring inEvita, and her relationship with Jose Gutierez Xtravaganza and Luis Xtravaganza, two members of New York City's Harlem ballroom scene who played an influential part in shaping the success"Vogue."

Shooter opens fire at Reno casino, killing 3 and injuring several othersNew Foto - Shooter opens fire at Reno casino, killing 3 and injuring several others

RENO, Nev. (AP) — A gunman opened fire Monday outside the largest casino in Reno, Nevada, killing three people and wounding three others before being taken into custody, officials said. Two victims were in critical condition, while the other had been released from the hospital, Sparks Police Chief Chris Crawforth said during a news conference Monday. The suspect had no known connection to the victims, police said, adding that the motive is unknown. The shooter walked up to the casino-hotel's valet parking area, pulled out a handgun and pointed it at a group of people, police said. His gun initially malfunctioned, but he quickly was able to get it to shoot. The suspect fled on foot through the parking lot where he encountered an armed casino security guard. Crawforth said the gunman opened fire on the guard, who returned fire as the shooter fled. The suspect also shot at someone driving by in the parking lot, striking and killing the driver. Officers arrived less than three minutes after the first shots rang out and fired at the suspect, police said in a statement. "Tragedies like this are horrific for any community to endure," Reno Police Department Chief Kathryn Nance said. The resort is one of Reno'smost prominent venues, hosting concerts, sporting events and a campaign rally byPresident Donald Trumpbefore the 2024 election. Near the California border and just northeast of Lake Tahoe, the town is a popular summer tourist destination. Hotel guests heard several shots coming from the resort's valet area around 7:30 a.m. Michael Sisco, 60, said he was in his room and about to head to the valet for his car when he heard popping sounds. He looked out his window and saw people screaming and running from the valet area. He said he saw a man holding his stomach and staggering before falling motionless next to a car. Sisco moved away from the window as the gunshots continued. "A half hour after the incident I started shaking because I realized I could've been there," he said. "That's exactly where I was going." Christina Martinez heard the shots just as she was stepping onto an elevator in the lobby, and they were still going off when she stepped out onto the 18th floor. Someone in a neighboring room told her there was a gunman right outside the main entrance, near where Martinez said she was getting coffee just moments before. "I feel very blessed, but that's kind of why I had a panic attack," she said. "I was like, oh my God. I was just there." Hours after the shooting, the entrance inside the casino leading to the valet area was roped off to guests and privacy screens were placed in front of the glass doors to block the view outside. In addition to those who were killed and the people taken to the hospital, three more were treated for minor injuries at the resort, according to Devon Reese, chair of the Board of Health in northern Nevada. One person was grazed by a bullet on their pinky finger, one was treated for severe anxiety and one was injured while running, he said. More than a year ago, two men were charged with fatally shooting another man who was staying at the resort in January 2024. The Grand Sierra claims to have the biggest casino floor in northern Nevada and sits just a few blocks from the Reno-Tahoe International Airport. It's also one of the tallest buildings in the city, with nearly 2,000 hotel rooms. "My heart breaks for the victims, their families, and our entire community. Reno is strong — but we are not immune to the epidemic of gun violence gripping this nation," Reese said in a social media post. ___ Yamat reported from Las Vegas, Nevada. Associated Press reporters Beatrice Dupuy in New York; Safiyah Riddle in Montgomery, Alabama; John Seewer in Toledo, Ohio; and Julie Watson in San Diego contributed.

For first time, two leading Israeli human rights groups accuse Israel of genocide in GazaNew Foto - For first time, two leading Israeli human rights groups accuse Israel of genocide in Gaza

A pair of leading Israeli human rights groups has accused Israel of "committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza," becoming the first such organizations to make the claim. B'Tselem said in amajor reportreleased on Monday that it came to that "unequivocal conclusion" after an "examination of Israel's policy in the Gaza Strip and its horrific outcomes, together with statements by senior Israeli politicians and military commanders about the goals of the attack." A second Israeli group,Physicians for Human Rights Israel (PHRI), announced it was joining B'Tselem in calling Israel's actions in Gaza genocide. It published a separate legal and medical analysis documenting what it called "deliberate and systematic extermination of the health system in Gaza." Israeli government spokesman David Mencer dismissed the report. "We have free speech in this country but we strongly reject this claim," he told reporters, adding that Israel has allowed aid into Gaza. Israel's foreign ministry also rejected the report, calling it "politically motivated" and dismissing the accusations as "obscene" and "baseless." It asserted that Israel only targets Hamas, not civilians, and takes "extensive measures" to avoid harming civilians while delivering aid. The Israeli military also called the allegations in the report "entirely unfounded" and pushed back on the allegations of deliberately starving the civilian population. "The IDF is allowing the entry of humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip in line with the Government's directives, and allows international organizations to carry out its distribution," the military told CNN in a statement. Israel has consistently argued that it is acting in accordance with international law and that its war in Gaza following the deadly Hamas attacks on October 7, 2023 is one of self-defense. When other, non-Israeli, groups have previously accused the country of committing genocide or genocidal acts, the Israeli government has reacted with anger, strongly rejecting the statements and often responding with claims that the accusations are grounded in antisemitism. B'Tselem said in the 79-page report that the reality on the ground in Gaza "cannot be justified or explained as an attempt to dismantle the Hamas regime or its military capabilities." Announcing the report's findings, B'Tselem Executive Director Yuli Novak said that "nothing prepares you for the realization that you are part of a society committing genocide. This is a deeply painful moment for us. "But as Israelis and Palestinians who live here and witness the reality every day, we have a duty to speak the truth as clearly as possible: Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinians. Our genocide has context," Novak said. The group said that Israel's onslaught on Gaza includesmass killing– both in direct attacks and through creating catastrophic living conditions –large-scale destructionof infrastructure, destruction of the social fabric,mass arrestsandabuse of detainees, and mass forced displacement, including attempts at ethnic cleansing. It added that statements made by senior Israeli decision-makers "have expressed genocidal intent throughout" the conflict. B'Tselem said the report was based on data collected over the past 20 months, including information on "thousands of cases" allegedly committed by Israel's forces against Palestinians in Gaza, the West Bank, East Jerusalem and Israeli territory. The group said it used its own information as well as external data gathered by thoroughly vetted organizations. PHRI added that the evidence it had gathered indicated a "deliberate and systematic dismantling of the health system in the Gaza Strip and other vital systems for the survival of the population." "This is not about collateral damage from war, but a deliberate policy aimed at harming the Palestinian population as a group," PHRI said in a statement. But while B'Tselem says the Israeli government is responsible for the situation in Gaza, it also accused the international community of enabling genocide. "Many state leaders, particularly in Europe and the US have not only refrained from effective action to stop the genocide but enabled it – through statements affirming Israel's 'right to self-defense' or active support, including the shipment of weapons and ammunition – which continued even after the International Court of Justice ruled that there was 'plausible risk that Israel's actions amount to genocidal acts,'" it stated. The group said that the sense of fear, rage and desire for revenge which many Israelis felt after the October 7 terror attacks served as "fertile ground for incitement against Palestinians in general, and Gazans in particular." Hamas and its allies killed 1,200 people, including children, and kidnapped 251 others to Gaza during the attack – the worst terror attack on Israel since the country's establishment. The report from B'Tselem comes as pressure mounts on Israel over the catastrophic situation in Gaza. Images of children dying of acute malnutrition have provoked global outrage, with the United Kingdom, France and Germany saying last week that the crisis was"man-made and avoidable." At the same time, the government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is under pressure from all sides domestically – with protests demanding the end of the war and the release of all hostages growing in strength and frequency, and far-right members of his coalition threatening to collapse the government if he ends the conflict. On Monday, the presidents of five of Israel's leading universities published an open letter to Netanyahu, raising concerns over the crisis in Gaza. "Alongside a growing segment of the Israeli public, we observe with shock the harrowing scenes emerging daily from Gaza, where hunger and disease continue to claim the lives of the most vulnerable," the university leaders said. They added that they were "appalled" by statements made by some politicians who were "advocating for the intentional destruction of Gaza and the forced displacementof its civilian population." While B'Tselem is the first Israeli organization to accuse the government of genocide, a number of international groups, organizations and governments have reached the same or similar conclusions in the past. The accusations have always sparked reaction, given their seriousness and the sensitivities around the use of the word genocide, which is defined by the United Nations Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide as "acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group." The United Nations Special Committee said last November that Israel's war conduct in Gaza was "consistent with the characteristics of genocide," including mass civilian casualties and using starvation as a weapon. Human Rights Watchaccused Israel of committing "acts of genocide" against Palestinians in Gaza by depriving them of adequate water supplies last December, whileAmnesty Internationalsaid around the same time that there was "sufficient evidence" to conclude genocide was happening in the territory. The government ofSouth Africa filed a lawsuitagainst Israel with the International Court of Justice in December 2023, accusing the country of committing genocide in Gaza. Ireland joined South Africa's case earlier this year. The UN's top courtordered Israelto take "all measures" to prevent a genocide in Gaza in a ruling on South Africa's request for emergency measures, which act like a restraining order while the court considers the full merits of the genocide case, a move that could take years. Several prominent Israeli individuals have also made the same accusation, including leading genocide expertOmer Bartovwho penned an op-ed in the New York Times saying that his "inescapable conclusion has become that Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinian people." Israeli historian Lee Mordechai made asimilar pointearlier this month, collating a database of what he said were examples of Israel's war crimes in Gaza and saying that the evidence he had seen "indicates that one of Israel's very likely objectives" was to "ethnically cleanse the Gaza Strip." CNN's Dana Karni contributed reporting. For more CNN news and newsletters create an account atCNN.com
