IDRIS ELBA THINKS MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEY WOULD BE A PERFECT FIT FOR THOR'S FAMILY

Idris Elba and Matthew McConaughey have a ton in common beyond the fact that they're both starring in The Dark Tower. They both think Mahersala is a great fit for the next season of True Detictive. They both love Anthony Hopkins. They both would be stoked should Elba become the next Sexiest Man Alive, and they both think that McConaughey is a natural fit for Marvel, as he has real potential to join Thor's world as a formidable Asgardian.
In a conversation for MTV News, Josh Horowitz, Elba, and McConaughey chat about The Dark Tower, the complex (and sometimes sinister) parts they play, and the drama of Stephen King's latest work to make it to the big screen. In between unraveling their characters and how Elba's particularly enamored with Roland Deschain, or one of "the most agile badasses I've ever played," they bounced around to plenty of different topics, including Thor:Rangroak — and how McConaughey nearly joined the cast of another notable Marvel movie.

ALESSIA CARA BREAKS DOWN THE ‘PERSONAL STATEMENT’ BEHIND HER VMA PERFORMANCE

Image
Alessia Cara left the  VMAs   this past weekend with some serious hardware, taking home her first two Moon Person trophies ever. Not only did the singer win Best Dance for her and Zedd’s “Stay,” but she was also one of five winners in the newly revamped  Best Fighting Against System   category, which honors music videos with timely social messages. Cara spoke about the latter award with MTV News correspondent Gaby Wilson, saying, “I think it was such an amazing thing that they gave it to everybody, because I feel like everybody who speaks their truth... deserves to be recognized. It’s important that we all speak up for certain things that we believe in and against certain things that we don’t. Thank you to all the artists who are doing that and using their privilege and using their platforms.”

HARRY STYLES BRINGS US INTO THE STUDIO FOR THIS PERFORMANCE OF 'TWO GHOSTS'

Image
It's crazy to watch this extremely chill rendition of " Two Ghosts " and remember that   Harry Styles literally screamed   when he was asked about the lady he sings about on the track. But yeah: This  Behind the Album  clip of the song off his  self-titled debut  is easy on both the eyes  and the ears, and it's enough to distract you from the rumor mill a-churnin' thanks to the mention of an old (and potentially famous) love's "same lips red, same eyes blue."

MAISIE WILLIAMS AND GWENDOLINE CHRISTIE LOVED THEIR GAME OF THRONES SWORD FIGHT AS MUCH AS YOU DID

Image
It may be one of the most intense series every to hit the small screen, but Game of Thornes  has its uplifting moments — and one of the best occurred in last week's episode, "The Spoils of War," when Arya ( Maisie Williams ) squared off against the mighty Brienne of Tarth ( Gwendoline Christie ) in an impromptu, friendly sword fight. And as fun as it was for us to watch, it was "great fun" for the actresses to shoot the scene — even if their, uh, differences made for a unique challenge that neither of them had faced while shooting a  GoT swordplay sequence before. In an interview with  Entertainment Weekly , Williams and Christie recount the scene and how they prepared for it, or, specifically, how they dealt with the fact that they were fighting a foe that was either over a foot taller or over a foot shorter than them.
