ILOVEYOU: The Virus That Broke the Internet – Now in Comic Form
Cybersecurity is usually taught through textbooks, technical reports, and after-action incident analyses. But what if you could step inside the story itself – feel the tension of the moment, the motivations of the attacker, and the ripple effects of a single click that brought industries to their knees? That’s the vision behind TuxCare’s true cybercrime comic book series, an innovative way to explore real-world cyberattacks that shaped the digital age.
Manolo Blahnik: ‘Marie Antoinette invented a style that was copied by all of Europe’
In 2004, Manolo Blahnik received one of the most rewarding commissions of his career: recreating the footwear of France’s last queen consort, Marie Antoinette, for the cinema.
Manolo Blahnik: “María Antonieta se inventó un estilo que copió toda Europa”
Manolo Blahnik recibió en 2004 uno de los encargos más gratificantes de su carrera: recrear para el cine el calzado de la última reina consorte de Francia, María Antonieta.
Chappell Roan on Country Icons, Her Enneagram, & the Long Road to Pop Stardom
Chappell Roan is a believer in the Enneagram test, which categorizes personality types. “I judge people based off their Enneagram,” she told me on a cold spring day in Manhattan. Roan was at the cover shoot for W, dressed in a heavily structured and generously padded Marc Jacobs look, her hair pouffed into a nimbus cloud of red frizz. “I’m an eight on the Enneagram scale,” she continued. “Eight is the Challenger.” She smiled.
Karrakatta Plate Performers Start Spring Climb
3 minute read The TABtouch-Pinnacles may still be almost five months away, but two key contenders are back in work ahead of big campaigns. Super Smink and Ripcord, who won and finished third respectively in the Group 2 Amelia Park-Karrakatta Plate (1200m) at Ascot in April, have started their build ups to the lucrative Pinnacles carnival later this year.
Tulloch Stakes form set to stand up in the west
Sydney trainer John O’Shea is confident the strong form line around his WATC Derby (2400m) charge Awesome John will carry him a long way in this week’s feature. Awesome John finished third behind Tapildoodledo and Major Beel (NZ) in last month's Group 2 Tulloch Stakes (2000m) at Rosehill. Since then of course, Major Beel (NZ) has won the Group 1 Australian Derby (2400m) at Randwick.
Tough Resortman Eyeing Quokka In Roma Return
3 minute read Multiple blacktype winner Resortman is set to launch a last-ditch effort to secure a slot in The Quokka (1200m) in Saturday’s Group 3 Roma Cup (1100m). Resortman won the Listed H.G. Bolton Sprint (1200m), Idyllic Prince Stakes (1300m), Farnley Stakes (1400m) and Group 3 Eurhythmic Stakes (1400m) in a marathon six-month campaign last time in.
Harry and Meghan warned to stay away from coronation or face King's wrath
1 hour ago Fifteen questions on general knowledge and topical trivia, plus a few jokes every Thursday. How will you fare? One step closer to the magic 100th edition of the Thursday quiz, today you face the usual ramshackle arrangement of vaguely topical questions with a bit of general knowledge thrown in. …
Simon Rex Takes Nothing For Granted
The actor Simon Rex gets bored in the desert town of Joshua Tree, California, which he calls home. That's the point, he insists. "I'm overstimulated in Los Angeles or New York or San Francisco or wherever there's too many people," he tells W. "Moving to Joshua Tree was never a full-time plan. It was more to decompress from the chaos of the city, get into nature, and breathe, have space.
Jared Leto Went Completely Nuts For 'House of Gucci'
The part of Paolo Gucci in House of Gucci wasn’t intended for Jared Leto. The actor originally received the script for another role, but after reading it, he couldn’t see himself as anyone other than the striving former head designer of the Italian house. “I didn’t know what he looked like, what he sounded like, but I really related to his desire to be an artist,” Leto says.
Jonah Hill on 'Don't Look Up,' Living With Leo DiCaprio, and 'Superbad 2'
In Adam McKay’s satire Don’t Look Up, a movie full of Hollywood’s most famous faces, Jonah Hill certainly holds his own. For a role he says he based partially on Fyre Festival fraudster Billy McFarland and partially on the Rich Kids of Instagram, Hill had to forge quick chemistry with Meryl Streep (his character is both the son and the chief of staff of Streep’s President Janie Orlean). Thankfully, he was already acquainted with one of the film’s other megastars, Leonardo DiCaprio.
Jamie Dornan Reluctantly Played the Father in 'Belfast'
Jamie Dornan began his year on-screen serenading seagulls with a melodramatic rock ballad in Kristen Wiig and Annie Mumolo’s delightfully bizarre comedy Barb & Star Go to Vista Del Mar. The performance won him praise from comedy fans and critics alike for his commitment, and helped audiences see the former 50 Shades actor in a new way.
‘Belfast’ Star Jude Hill Confronts His Newfound Fame
One might think that the significance of playing the role of the legendary director and actor Sir Kenneth Branagh as a child might be lost on an 11-year-old. But Jude Hill, who stars as Buddy in Branagh’s latest film, Belfast, gets it. Alongside Jamie Dornan, Caitriona Balfe, Ciarán Hinds, and Judi Dench, Hill shines as a kid who is forced to confront the violence that shook the Northern Irish capital in the late 1960s.
Kodi Smit-McPhee Talks 'The Power of the Dog' and His Path to Stardom
Kodi Smit-McPhee’s journey to acting began when his father, Andy McPhee, then a professional wrestler, was asked to audition for a fast-food commercial and fell in love with the work. The elder McPhee passed his passion on to his son, whose breakthrough in Hollywood came when he was cast as a child actor opposite Viggo Mortensen in 2009’s The Road. Smit-McPhee has had steady roles ever since, including a stint as the superhero Nightcrawler in the X-Men franchise.
'CODA' Star Emilia Jones Breaks Through
In CODA, which is an acronym for Child of Deaf Adults, the 19-year-old Welsh actress Emilia Jones stars as Ruby Rossi, the only hearing person in a deaf family. You might recognize Jones from the Netflix series Locke & Key, or, if you’re a particularly sharp observer, as a child in One Day, the 2011 romantic drama starring Anne Hathaway.
Zazie Beetz on 'The Harder They Fall' and Her Journey to Acting
Zazie Beetz is perhaps best known for her role as the on-and-off-again girlfriend of Earn, played by Donald Glover on Atlanta. But this year, she's taken on a completely different genre—starring alongside Jonathan Majors and Regina King in Netflix’s neo-Western The Harder They Fall. For W’s annual Best Performances issue, Beetz discusses her creative journey and the spiritual experience of horseback riding. You are named after a character in a film.
‘Eternals’ Star Lauren Ridloff Steps Into Her Power
In Chloé Zhao’s Eternals, the director’s first Marvel film, a motley crew of immortal beings with superpowers band together and fight evil. One of those beings is Makkari, played by Lauren Ridloff, who uses her gift of superspeed to save humankind. Ridloff, who is deaf, got her start on Broadway before taking on roles in The Walking Dead and 2019’s Sound of Metal.
Jodie Comer on 'The Last Duel' and the Final Season of 'Killing Eve'
The name Jodie Comer has been synonymous with Villanelle, the alluringly chic assassin who stars opposite Sandra Oh in the hit BBC America series Killing Eve, for the past three years. She strikes a much more serious tone in her performance opposite Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, and Adam Driver in The Last Duel, Ridley Scott’s historical epic about a knight (Damon) who challenges a squire (Driver) to a duel to the death after his wife (Comer) accuses the squire of raping her.
‘Red Rocket’ Star Suzanna Son Shares Her Unconventional Path to Fame
Suzanna Son was on a date at the movies three years ago when she ran into director Sean Baker, the filmmaker who has a knack for plucking people off the street and turning them into stars. When his Red Rocket project finally took shape, she sent in a self-tape and landed the role of Strawberry, opposite former model and MTV VJ Simon Rex.
Leslie Odom Jr. Embraces His Inner Anti-Hero
Leslie Odom Jr. has perfected the role of the bad guy. Or, more accurately, the guy who did some not-so-great things, but maybe doesn’t totally deserve the title of “bad guy.” The actor who shot to fame originating the role of Aaron Burr in the Broadway smash Hamilton has now caught The Sopranos fans’ attention as Harold McBrayer in The Many Saints of Newark.
Cooper Hoffman on 'Licorice Pizza' and Following In His Father's Footsteps
Growing up surrounded by film didn’t convince Cooper Hoffman, son of the late Philip Seymour Hoffman, that he wanted to be an actor. No, that happened when he had his first reading with Paul Thomas Anderson for Licorice Pizza. After that, a love for acting formed, but he had to prove to Anderson, a lifelong family friend who wasn’t handing out any favors, that he was right for the part. Luckily, he was able to make his case, and the Hoffman/Anderson legacy continued on with another generation.
Tessa Thompson Talks 'Passing' and Her Superhero Skills in 'Thor'
Tessa Thompson is a busy woman. Her ever-expanding oeuvre contains both major blockbusters, including two films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as well as thoughtful indie affairs like last year’s Sylvie’s Love and her latest, Passing. While at first Thompson wasn’t familiar with the 1929 Nella Larsen novella on which Passing is based, upon reading the original story and Rebecca Hall’s adaptation, she was blown away.
Ruth Negga Leans Into the Discomfort of ‘Passing’
For proof that Ruth Negga has the range, look no further than her recent awards season track record. In 2017, the 40-year-old’s performance in Loving earned her an Oscar nomination for Best Actress, establishing her talent for Hollywood in addition to theater. These days, Negga is up for a best supporting actress Golden Globe for a role that couldn’t be more different.
Alana Haim on 'Licorice Pizza', Meeting Bradley Cooper, and Growing Up Haim
Throughout her professional career, Alana Haim has been known for performing alongside her two sisters in their hit band Haim. Everything changed, however, when her longtime friend, director Paul Thomas Anderson, sent Alana a script featuring a character sporting her own name and asked her to throw her hat into the acting ring. Just like that, the now 30-year-old musician became a multihyphenate, wowing the film industry with her debut performance in Licorice Pizza.
Jake Gyllenhaal Considers ‘The Guilty' Ones
When the Danish film The Guilty premiered at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival, much of the audience exited the screening in a state of adrenaline overload or distress. Jake Gyllenhaal, on the other hand, felt inspired: He couldn’t help but wonder what an American version would look like, and he soon took it upon himself to find out.
Saniyya Sidney Talks Playing Venus Williams and Bonding With Will Smith
At just 15 years old, Saniyya Sidney has already worked alongside such industry giants as Denzel Washington in Fences, Ryan Murphy in American Horror Story: Roanoke, and soon, Viola Davis in Showtime’s The First Lady. But it’s her star turn playing Venus Williams in King Richard that will perhaps forever change the game for the young talent.
Tilda Swinton and Daughter Honor Swinton Byrne Turn Their Relationship Into Art

Jessica Chastain Wants You to See Past Tammy Faye Bakker's Makeup
Jessica Chastain's theatrical range knows no bounds—she's played a fiercely protective wife and mother as Anna Morales in A Most Violent Year; the "epitome of grace," as she puts it, in The Tree of Life; and most recently, she embodied the infamous televangelist Tammy Faye Bakker in The Eyes of Tammy Faye. For W’s annual Best Performances issue, Chastain reflects on almost 10 years of learning about Tammy and her approach to faith—while discovering some religion of her own along the way.
Adam Driver Couldn’t Wait to Stop Being a Gucci
Adam Driver wears a Burberry suit, shirt, and tie. See more from Best Performances 2022 It should come as no surprise that Adam Driver has had a banner year. Starring in three buzzworthy films and working twice with director Ridley Scott, the performer also had time to strip down and swim with a horse in the ocean for a much-talked-about Burberry ad.
Gemma Chan Creates Her Own Good Work
The Eternals star has a plan to tell better stories in Hollywood. Interview by Lynn Hirschberg Photographed by Tim Walker Gemma Chan wears a Burberry sleeveless trenchcoat. Gemma Chan's curriculum vitae spans genres, areas of interest, and even industries: At one point, the Crazy Rich Asians star was a model, and she started out with ambitions of pursuing a legal career.
What Was That (Album Review)
What Was That Senior Citizen and Tim Walker Backward Music 3 December 2021 Canadian producer and musician Bob Deveau may be best known for his drumming with acts such as the Olympic Symphonium, Grand Theft Bus, and Force Fields, but he’s also spent more than a decade as an electronic music producer under the name Senior Citizen. His first album featuring that alter ego, 2016’s The Hawk, was a long-gestating project that featured contributions from a number of vocalists and instrumentalists.
At Balenciaga, Demna Gvasalia Rethinks the Traditions of Couture
“The most personal piece to me was the one in which I did not design anything,” says Demna Gvasalia, speaking from his home in Zurich a little over two months after his debut couture show for Balenciaga, in July, the house’s first in more than 50 years. Like most things with the Georgian-born designer, who has been pushing the boundaries and the buttons of the fashion world for nearly a decade, the statement was a fascinating riddle, both straightforward and enigmatic.

Book Spotlight and Excerpt: Guardians at the Wall By Tim Walker
Archaeology student Noah scrapes the soil near Hadrian’s Wall, once a barrier that divided Roman Britannia from wild Caledonian tribes, in the hope of uncovering an ancient artefact around which he can build a project-defining story.

Michael Bracken - Pulp Modern: The Original and The Best
If you were allowed to give one argument as to why the world should read your work, what would that argument be? There’s absolutely no reason the world should read my work. However, I think my best stories offer an emotional impact and the worst are, at least, entertaining. What compelled you to become a writer in the first place? My parents divorced shortly after I was born, and my mother and I moved frequently.

My Favourite Christmas Books. Guest Post by Sharon Booth.
Thank you, Laura, for inviting me onto your lovely blog – especially at this wonderful time of year. I’m feeling extremely festive, which is a bit strange, given the state of affairs in the world at the moment. It’s been a horrible year all round, hasn’t it? I’ve hardly been out of the house, and I’m roughly twice the size I was last year, which is saying something, believe me. The one good thing about 2020 for me, personally, has been the arrival of my newest grandchild.
