Oscar Isaac Will Bring a ‘Rock Star’ Energy to His Victor Frankenstein

Entertainment Weekly recently sat down with Oscar Isaac to discuss Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein movie, which will hit theaters in October before rolling out on Netflix. While the article breaks down the overall thrust of the movie—namely, that Dr. Frankenstein is haunted by the specter of an abusive father (Charles Dance), prompting him to create new life in an attempt to break the chains of generational trauma more than scientific achievement—the piece hones in on Isaac’s quote that his po

Trump's Nvidia and Intel meddling is a 'scattershot method of crony capitalism': Walter Isaacson

President Donald Trump's dealings with Intel and Nvidia amount to a "scattershot method of crony capitalism," Walter Isaacson said Thursday. "That state capitalism often evolves into crony capitalism, where you have favored companies and industries that pay tribute to the leader, and that is a recipe for not only disaster, but just sort of a corrupt sense of messiness," he told CNBC's "Squawk Box." The Tulane University professor, widely known for his recent Elon Musk biography, argued that th

Oscar Isaac Is Ready to Be a ‘Star Wars’ Again

Oscar Isaac is a perpetually busy actor, and though he’s made his share of dramas, he’s particularly beloved by genre fans for his work in that realm: Dune, Moon Knight, Ex Machina, the Spider-Verse series, and even those animated Addams Family movies. But atop that mountain sits Star Wars, featuring Isaac as rebel pilot Poe Dameron across the sequel trilogy. With Poe surviving the events of The Rise of Skywalker, might there be a chance fans will see him again? Speaking to Variety in a new int

Trump Snubbed Jared Isaacman as NASA Chief, but the Private Astronaut Isn’t Done With Space

Although Jared Isaacman is out of the running for the position of NASA administrator, the space enthusiast is still very much interested in staying in the game. In a recent appearance, Isaacman revealed he would still like to pursue launching robotic missions to space. This weekend, Isaacman received the National Space Society’s Wernher von Braun Award for the privately funded Polaris Dawn mission that he led in September 2024. After his speech, Isaacman spoke of plans he would have executed as

Isaacman’s bold plan for NASA: Nuclear ships, seven-crew Dragons, accelerated Artemis

Nearly two weeks have passed since Jared Isaacman received a fateful, brief phone call from two officials in President Trump's Office of Personnel Management. In those few seconds, the trajectory of his life over the next three and a half years changed dramatically. The president, the callers said, wanted to go in a different direction for NASA's administrator. At the time, Isaacman was within days of a final vote on the floor of the US Senate and assured of bipartisan support. He had run the g

Trump’s Pick for NASA Chief Hints at Expected Shift Toward Mars

If Jared Isaacman becomes NASA’s administrator, as he’s likely to do, the agency will prioritize Mars over the Moon under the Trump administration, judging by some of his first public comments on the matter. Jared Isaacman has been active on social media since Trump named him as his choice to become the U.S. space agency’s next administrator, which he did in early December. But the astronaut mostly stuck to posting about flying planes, his payments company Shift4, and retweeting images of space
