Transcript
- 0:06Speaker 1: Rod Stewart's called time. One more series of shows and
- 0:09Speaker 1: that is it.
- 0:10Speaker 2: Rod, who's 81, says he'll hang up the mic after
- 0:13Speaker 2: what he's calling the final encore, the farewell tour. We'll
- 0:17Speaker 2: kick off in Ireland next April with shows across the
- 0:20Speaker 2: UK and several cities in Europe, including Prague and Amsterdam.
- 0:23Speaker 2: Might need to look into that. Getting yourself over to Europe,
- 0:27Speaker 2: maybe Prague or Amsterdam.
- 0:29Speaker 1: Check how many frequent fly points you've got up your sleeve.
- 0:32Speaker 2: Yeah, Stuart's decision follows a series of health-related cancellations, including
- 0:36Speaker 2: the end of his US tour after a coronary stent procedure.
- 0:40Speaker 2: He has expressed gratitude to his fans for his amazing career, saying,
- 0:44Speaker 2: it's given me a life beyond anything I could ever
- 0:47Speaker 2: have imagined. You know, Tom Holland is playing Fred Astaire
- 0:52Speaker 2: in a new movie.
- 0:54Speaker 1: Now, Margaret... Is there no part this guy can't play? No,
- 0:56Speaker 1: there is no part this guy can't play. He's the
- 0:58Speaker 1: highest paid guy in Hollywood.
- 1:00Speaker 2: Now Margaret Qualley and Sabrina Carpenter have joined Spider-Man for
- 1:04Speaker 2: the untitled Fred Astaire biopic. This development comes nearly five
- 1:08Speaker 2: years after Holland first revealed he'd be leading the project.
- 1:11Speaker 1: This is a bit of a passion project for him.
- 1:13Speaker 2: Qualley will star as Adele Astaire and Carpenter is going
- 1:17Speaker 2: to play Ginger Rogers. Fred and Adele were major stars
- 1:21Speaker 2: on Broadway and London's West End before Fred Astaire went
- 1:24Speaker 2: on to be one of cinema's greatest stars with his
- 1:26Speaker 2: co-star and dance partner, Rogers. And anyone who's ever seen
- 1:29Speaker 2: Tom do his great impression of Rihanna's umbrella in Lip
- 1:32Speaker 2: Sync Battle knows the boy can.
- 1:34Speaker 1: Dance, as Fred Astaire could.
- 1:37Speaker 2: Actor John Goodman has been added to the cast for
- 1:41Speaker 2: season three of The Last of Us. Goodman's going to
- 1:44Speaker 2: play Joey, one half of the self-nicknamed heroes of the
- 1:47Speaker 2: highway duo. I think that they were characters in the
- 1:50Speaker 2: video game that the show is based on. He joins
- 1:53Speaker 2: Patrick Wilson and Jason Ritter, who had already been announced
- 1:56Speaker 2: for season three. And William Shatner's done it again, pivoting
- 2:00Speaker 2: into something completely different. 95-year-old Shatner is fronting his very
- 2:06Speaker 2: own heavy metal band, called, well, it's called The Uckers
- 2:12Speaker 2: with an asterisk before Ucker. Let's see what he's done.
- 2:18Speaker 2: They've just done their first performance in Chicago. They played
- 2:22Speaker 2: a six-song set, including covers of hits from Ozzy Osbourne,
- 2:27Speaker 2: Metallica and Motorhead. Now, I don't want to say they
- 2:30Speaker 2: were terrible, but they may have gone where no man
- 2:33Speaker 2: should go again.
- 2:53Speaker 1: Oh, William, it's lucky we love you. Do you think
- 2:56Speaker 1: William's saying to Rod, come on, boy, you're only 81.
- 2:59Speaker 1: You've got life.
- 3:00Speaker 2: I'm 95.
- 3:01Speaker 1: Look at him.
- 3:02Speaker 2: I've gone heavier.
- 3:03Speaker 1: The grief.
- 3:04Speaker 2: The Uckers, also performed three original songs that are set
- 3:07Speaker 2: to feature on their upcoming debut album, which is titled
- 3:10Speaker 2: What the F is Heavy Metal. Good or bad, his
- 3:12Speaker 2: fans are loving it, with one commenter online saying, I
- 3:15Speaker 2: love that he knows he can't sing, but he's having
- 3:18Speaker 2: fun anyway. An awesome dude having fun. I hope to
- 3:21Speaker 2: be half that cool at 96, or even alive.
- 3:24Speaker 1: He knows where to stay relevant, doesn't he?
