“Game of Thrones” star Kit Harrington has checked into rehab. He has been in a wellness facility in Connecticut for about a month, before the series finale aired, to deal with stress, exhaustion, and alcohol abuse. His rep said in a statement, “Kit has decided to utilize this break in his schedule as an opportunity to spend some time at a wellness retreat to work on some personal issues.”
“Game of Thrones” and “Aquaman” star Jason Mamoa posted a throwback picture on Instagram recalling the time he was “broke” when he first started filming GOT.
“Booksmart” did not do so well in its opening weekend, earning less than $10 million and taking only the number six spot. It’s Olivia Wilde’s directorial debut, so what do you do when you need to plug your movie? Get your famous friends to help you out! Taylor Swift posted in her Instagram stories, “Just bought tickets!! Guys go see ‘Booksmart’ cause in this house we support @oliviawilde.” Ryan Reynolds tweeted, “’BOOKSMART.’ Don’t walk, RUN to see this. Today and all summer.” Reese Witherspoon, Mindy Kaling, Chrissy Teigen, Busy Philpps, Seth MacFarlane, and more all posted their support for the flick on social media.
A wide release for a small film is def a major gamble. I’m lucky my first movie is in any theater at all! Also proud a movie like this can be seen by the entire country at once. We made @Booksmart for everyone. 🐼

Hey comedy lovers— It’s really fuckin hard to direct a great comedy, and @oliviawilde did it. So do yourself a favor and go see @booksmart today. Like, tonight. Like, go see it instead of that other movie you were planning on seeing. I saw it and laughed, and I hate everything.
