The Once Upon a Time in Hollywood actress, who prefers to be termed actor, was caught once again using a standard ambulatory motion to gain access along a city street. Long-known for her ability to be seen both in public and private, onlookers, some of whom utilised cellular telephonic devices to capture the moment, expressed astonishment at bearing witness to a moment in which Margot Robbie was being seen again having been seen elsewhere by somebody in the most recent previous one.


Not only did the Barbie star, comfortable in clothing that covered all of her physical body except for hands, hair, face, and, at times, bare portions of either wrist, enjoy a leisurely being seen along Venice beach with husband, Tom Ackerley, she also paused to execute a looking action outside a store selling items made of a variety of cloths used by people to be worn on upper parts of the human body. In glancing at the display, Robbie’s gaze was obliged to penetrate a large pane of rectangular glass, which thus offered a reflection of the actress back at herself and, ipso facto, to any passers-by, technically doubling the being seen-ness of Margot Robbie for that instant.


‘I don’t know how she does it,’ exclaimed one of the people there to see Margot Robbie in that brief period of her being seen. ‘She’s already out there, being seen. Then she stops to look in a window and –bam!- there’s two Margot Robbies. Margot Robbie has increased her whole levels of being seeness by at least one visible apparition.’


At one point during the being seen, the The Wolf of Wall Street actor can be seen pressing her lips together in rapid succession, waiting for husband Ackerley to do the same, then, as if on cue, responding with another sequence of mouth shapes. A Hollywood insider explained. ‘Robbie takes being seen back to the glory days of Hayworth and Bacall. But adding in apparent conversation is such a 2024 touch. I don’t doubt that at some point soon she is going to be being heard.’

In the aftermath of the USA’s shock win over Pakistan in the T20 Cricket World Cup, Warner Brothers has greenlighted the script of ‘American Cricket!’ for production next summer.


In ‘American Cricket!’ we follow the adventures of a bunch of amateur college kids who play cricket in their spare time under the management of wise old West Indies legend Sir Viv Richards (Morgan Freeman) and captained by Chuck ‘Sixhit’ Patterson (Ryan Reynolds) as they fight the Pakistan team’s evil plan to drop a series of incendiary bombs disguised as cricket balls on the White House and Trump Tower.


The USA squad is hit by tragedy early on when Chuck’s best friend and the only black player on the squad, fast-pitcher Ricky Ray Reems (Martin Lawrence), is killed in a mysterious incident while they inspect the square at Met Life Stadium in New Jersey. Nonetheless, they bravely fight on to secure a last-ball win over Papua New Guinea.


In the divisional round, the plucky underdogs come up against a sneering upper class England team, managed by villainous Sir Henry Ffarquarshon-Smythe (Jeremy Irons) who try to re-establish colonial control over the liberty-loving Americans. They are foiled when last-minute replacement Steve ‘Rock-Hard’ Watson (Vin Diesel) pitches a no-hitter to send the crowd into wild chants of ‘U-S-A! U-S-A!’ at the last-ball win.


In the final, even more villainous Pakistan captain Osama Bin Badman (is Omar Sharif still alive? Please check) begins their innings with a murderous assault in which over 50,000 rounds of bullets are fired but none of the Americans get hurt. Then in a tense finish, Chuck manages to hit a home run over deep midwicket to seal another last ball win.


At some point Chuck’s beautiful blonde girlfriend Casey (Margot Robbie) will get her kit off, because of course she will.

After months of writing inactivity, Hollywood producers are coming in to work to find piles of scripts on their desks, with the vast majority about how the writers of America won a valiant battle against the producers.


'I know I wasn't supposed to be writing,' said one of the writers who submitted a script within minutes of the strike ending, 'but its not like I've got any life skills, what else was I supposed to do while striking?'


A spokesperson for the Producers' Guild of America said 'you couldn't make it up'.
