Eddie Murphy

His movies might not be earning well at the box office lately, but Hollywood veteran Eddie Murphy remains happy.

The A-list actor has found love again with a 28-year-old, aspiring actress, Rocsi Diaz. Murphy, 51, and his young girlfriend were recently seen inside a branch of Coffee Bean Café in Sherman Oaks in Los Angeles. The actor and his girlfriend seemed very much in love with each other as they hugged and held hands.

Despite seemingly losing his mojo for making hit movies, Murphy remains a bankable and well-respected comedian today. The actor has five children with his ex-wife, Nicole Mitchel, and he also has a daughter with former Spice Girl Melanie Brown. We hope Murphy and his new girlfriend have a long and lasting relationship as a couple.

Star Wars Creator George Lucas Set to Retire from Making Hit Films Soon

George Lucas

Here is a piece of bad news for all the sci-fi movie fans out there.

One of the pillars of sci-fi films revealed that he is retiring from making commercial films and will just focus on making small films out of his garage. Star Wars creator George Lucas, 68, said he has decided to retire from making blockbuster movies so that he can spend the majority of his time in his garage making non-commercial films, which happens to be his true passion.

Lucas said after years of making big films, he realized that it is now time to make hobby movies that make him smile and feel happy. Although some people are clearly sad about his retirement, others are skeptical that Lucas will really retire from making big films. Skeptics said Lucas has often said he wants to retire from making commercial films, but he has always continued to crank out the hits, including the recent Red Tails, which he produced.

Whether Lucas’ announcement is true or not, the fact remains that he will be sorely missed if he really decides to retire from making commercial films. The man is a genius at creating special effects in movies.
