Imelda Staunton will reportedly be absent from the third 'Downton Abbey' movie. The 68-year-old actress played Lady Maud Bagshaw in the first two films in the franchise but she's not expected to reprise the role because of her commitments to London stage production 'Hello Dolly!', which she will be starring in while the project films over the summer.

A source told The Sun newspaper: “This will no doubt be sad news for Downton fans, in particular those who were endea...

The 59-year-old actor has dismissed suggestions that movies like 'Notting Hill' should be cancelled, on the basis that it fails to reflect London's diversity.

But test audiences said, ‘Where’s the star? Where’s Julia Roberts?’ So the producers cut out that three-minute multicultural sequence." Hugh also believes there needs to be more "perspect...

Hugh Bonneville wanted to "kill" his older sister and even began digging a grave for her. The 'Downton Abbey' star admitted he was tired of his sibling Claire picking on him around the house when they were children, with her "unnecessary" behaviour including kicking him under the table and sticking her tongue out at him, so he told his mother he wanted to do away with her, but she didn't take his threats very seriously. Speaking on 'The One Show', Hugh, 59, said: "Anyone who's had an older sister realises at some point that they need to die or be killed. I think I was about seven or eight. Cla...
