(Erik Thomson and Rick Donald), You guys are really getting me down and depressed! As dads to ARLO (Benson Jack Anthony) and POPPY (Jessica Redmayne), your overblown egos are getting in the way of the real issue here. So what if Arlo caused a catfight between Poppy and LINDSAY (Manon Blackman), the two girls who he’s stringing along like lovesick puppies? The fact that he broke up with Lindsay, and she blamed Poppy, causing the girls to brawl at school and get suspended is no reason for you two to take it out on each other. WOODY, you might be all icy with GEORGE over Arlo’s treatment of your little girl, and George, you might be all defensive, but it’s become clear that you can’t sort your own problems. You…

One can’t imagine a superhero from the Marvel universe played by such a down-to-earth and unassuming man as Sebastian Stan, aka Captain Bucky Barnes.

Sebastian’s also had a star turn in I, Tonya and appears opposite Nicole Kidman in the upcoming Destroyer. He’ll also star in Beat the Reaper, based on the Josh Bazell crime novel and produced by Leonardo DiCaprio. TV SOAP catches up with him in the penthouse of the luxe Shangri-La in Santa Monica. You’re originally from Romania, right? Yes. I was born there and I left when I was eight. Then I lived in Austria for four years and I came to the US in 1995.…
