News & Notes

HE’S COMMANDED armies and dragons. She’s sparred with slave masters and horse lords. But what Emilia Clarke had to S do on the Game of Thrones set last October left her unusually nervous: sit and have a polite conversation. Sound simple? Not when the other actor is Clarke’s Emmy- winning costar Peter Dinklage. It was the first time they’d shared a scene, and it played out on set like a charmingly awkward date. “I’m like, ‘Oh, my goodness, I’m talking to that dude on my telly,’ ” Clarke says. “This is huge.” Huge is right: Having Dinklage’s Tyrion Lannister meet Clarke’s Daenerys Targaryen stunned fans, who were universally enthu- siastic (for once!) about the showrunners making a narrative move not yet found in George R.R. Martin’s novels. After the duo nailed the scene, we talked about their new- Peter Dinklage and Emilia Clarke found onscreen partnership.

WITH ALL 180 EPISODES COMING TO HULU ON JUNE 24—DON’T CALL IT A REGIFT!— WE’RE REVISITING THE SHOW ABOUT NOTHING. By Stephan Lee

WHAT IT’S ABOUT NOTHING. Well, at least that was the idea. In 1988, and fellow comedian came up with a novel premise for a sit- com: A stand-up and his friends riff on every- day topics. NBC bought it, and Seinfeld quietly debuted its in the summer of 1989. Nearly a year would pass before additional epi- sodes aired, and the first-year ratings were bleak (it was regularly bested by Jake and the Fatman). But the network gave Seinfeld time to find its footing, and even when the series became a massive hit, it more or less stuck to its “nothing” approach. Seinfeld played a ver- sion of himself, a comedian constantly amused by his dysfunctional friends, particularly (), a neu- rotic easily triggered into fits of rage; (Julia Louis-Dreyfus), a seemingly put- together career woman who racks up bad boyfriends and can unravel over a square of toilet paper; and (), Jerry’s wild-haired neighbor who’s always good for a grand entrance and a wacky C plot. Despite the series’ pervasiveness in the mainstream—“Serenity now!” and dozens of catchphrases went the ’90s version of viral; the series won 10 Emmys—Seinfeld was thor- oughly transgressive, always staying funny

I had a girlfriend at that time who watched the movie at the house while I was recording some other stuff. When I came back, she was crying. She said, “What a great movie!” So I did the first song, which was “What a Feeling.” I was thinking of Irene Cara, because she had that great song “Fame,” and I thought she was the best singer for that.

Who am I to tell Freddie what to do? So I was a little nervous, but he did a really good job.

BERLIN “Take My Breath Away” 1986 We did one demo with Martha [Davis] from the Motels and she did a good job but, funnily enough, [Top Gun producers] Jerry Bruckheimer and Don Simpson didn’t think it was a hit. So then I came up with the idea of doing it with Berlin singer Terri Nunn. She was the right singer, the perfect image. The only thing was, toward the end, I changed the key—I think it’s more of a European way to make the end bigger. She did not like that. So that was a little bit of an argument. But in the end it became a No. 1 hit and everybody was happy!

DAFT PUNK “Giorgio by Moroder” 2013 I was semiretired and had a nice quiet life until Daft Punk got me back into work. They asked me to come in and record a collabora- tion. I said, “Oh, great, we can start writing a song.” But they said they wanted me to talk about my life. So I spoke for two hours. They were so great at getting me to tell stories that I should not have told! I thought they would use my voice as a sample, but they used it to tell the story. I loved it. The experience changed quite a lot of things in my life. I got a manager and I got several offers to do albums.

BRITNEY SPEARS “Tom’s Diner” 2015 Britney asked if I was interested in producing her with the [Suzanne Vega] song “Tom’s Diner.” I started to record the chords because, on an a cappella song, you can have whatever chords you want. When I was happy with the tracks, I sent it to her. I was shocked by how big she is worldwide. When the song was leaked, she was trending for almost a day. I knew she was big, but I did not know that she was that big. ■

ON THE PROWL WITH THE TEEN WOLF PACK

MTV June 29 • 10 PM Returning Drama

When season 5 of Teen Wolf, MTV’s lycanthro-soap, returns to the small screen, the wolf pack will be facing the looming threat of high school graduation— alongside the usual threats of mysterious, malevolent, trying-to- kill-everyone villains. But in real life, the show’s stars are teens no more. So you don’t need to tell the cops that ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY grabbed drinks in Hollywood with lead actors Tyler Posey, 23, Dylan O’Brien, 23, and Holland Roden, 28. As they settled in to play a quick game of beer pong, it was easy to see how the actors have grown into their characters in the half decade since they first met. Posey, who plays alpha wolf Scott, frequently launches into riff-offs with pal O’Brien, who plays Scott’s best friend, Stiles, on the show (when he’s not maze running on the big

T’S TAKEN Hollywood a while to figure out what to do with Melissa McCarthy. Maybe that’s because of Spy sexism or maybe it’s just old-fashioned cluelessness, STARRING Melissa McCarthy, Jude Law, I which, come to think of it, may amount to the same Rose Byrne, Jason Statham thing. Either way, the answer’s been obvious all along: DIRECTED BY Paul Feig Put the woman in any damn thing she pleases. She’s that good. R, 1 HR., 59 MINS. Since the riff-happy whirling dervish broke out in 2011’s Brides- By Chris Nashawaty maids, she’s been in some good movies and some less-good ones. But she’s always stood out in a sea of cinematic sameness. McCarthy’s mind just seems to race in a faster gear than her LARRY HORRICKS (2) costars’, allowing her to blast off arias of profane put-downs with such speed and demented originality that her mouth practically shoots sparks. As a physical comedian, she possesses the great- est gift of all: She’s totally unafraid of looking stupid. McCarthy’s latest film, Spy, reunites the actress with her patron saint Paul Feig (Brides- maids, The Heat), and the duo have finally come up with a role that feels richer than a sketch- comedy premise. McCarthy plays Susan Cooper, an unassuming, unassertive CIA desk jockey who, from a rat-infested basement deep in the bowels of Langley, guides the agency’s top spies Kit Harington, on their license-to-kill missions via an earpiece. Taron Egerton, and One of these suave American 007s is played Alicia Vikander by Jude Law, who despite his flair with a pistol and a glass of pinot noir is oblivious to the fact that Cooper harbors a not-so-secret crush on Testament of Youth him. Then, during an assignment to take out a STARRING Alicia Vikander, Kit Harington, Hayley Atwell Bulgarian villain with a rogue nuke, he’s killed.

June 12, 2015 EW.COM | 71 Harley-Davidson (#431) JetBlue Airways (#454) HANKS TO A BROKEN foot suffered while performing during Coachella’s opening weekend in April, Florence T Welch has been promoting her third album from a new vantage point: a seat. It’s a jarring image considering Welch tends to indulge in the kind of grand physicality (wild arm-flailing, purposeful pogoing) that matches the high drama of her baroque pop sound. But having to perch and belt has ironi- cally been the ideal delivery system for the songs of How Big How Blue How Beautiful, Florence + the Machine’s most raw and stripped-down album to date. The fantastical imagery of 2011’s Ceremonials has been largely replaced by direct confessionals about Welch’s heartbreak. And the simple, lovely “Caught” is a prime example: Over a clean piano and guitar and spare percussion, Welch wavers between cooing and bellowing about being “pulled apart against my will.” She’s never shied away from songs about her love life, but both the joy and sorrow on How Big feel more immediate, which in turn make the shifts in sound, subtle as they are, all the more intense, especially on the morphing “Mother.” This is all relative, of course—it’s not like Florence has suddenly become a minimalist folkie. There are still harps aplenty, and songs like “Ship to Wreck” and “Third Eye” pack the powerhouse vocal wallop she’s known for. But Florence + How Big is Welch’s most accomplished album yet, primarily because she doesn’t rely solely BEST TRACKS The Machine on operatics to make DELILAH herself heard.

Please close this magazine and don’t reopen it until you’ve secured and finished a copy. For the first 19 years of her life, sharp-witted but plain- featured Kelsea lived with foster parents in a secluded cottage, preparing for the day she’d ascend to the Tear throne. When she finally arrives in her kingdom, things aren’t as they should be. For years, the Tearling has sent human cargo to neighboring Mortmesne as insurance against an invasion. With a clear mind, a firm hand, and a bit of uncontrollable magic from a pair of sapphires, Queen Kelsea stops the shipments—but her problems are just beginning. Kelsea’s world is set centuries in the future, but the Tear might as well be Victorian England: During a mysterious, world-changing event called the Crossing, a chunk of America’s population sailed away from the continent for good, plunging the country into a sort of Dark Ages. Technology is nonexistent; travel is strictly by horseback. Pre-Crossing literature like Dickens and Shakespeare is so rare it’s nearly consigned to myth. The Invasion of the Tearling glides over the sophomore slump, carrying the series upward with it. As Kelsea struggles to thwart the ageless Red Queen of Mortmesne’s invasion, she learns more about the pre-Crossing world through the strange, lucid visions of a wealthy 21st-century American named Lily. The new Tearling characters are fascinating, and The Invasion Johansen introduces them so smoothly, we care for them almost the instant we learn their Of the Tearling MEMORABLE LINE names.
