"The Circle" Trailer, Amy Schumer's Response to Trolls & Grammy Nominees 2017

Emma Watson goes head-to-head with the geniuses of Silicon Valley in the first trailer for The Circle. Based on Dave Eggers book of the same name, the trailer centers on Watson’s Mae Holland–a new employee at the Circle who soon learns that her company is aiming to develop a complete surveillance state. Other scenes show Holland delving into the company’s server farm, finding herself stranded in a body of water and trying to serve a drone attack. The Circle also stars Tom Hanks and John Boyega and is set to hit theaters April 28, 2017.

Amy Schumer took to Instagram on Tuesday to respond to bodyshamers who think she’s not fit enough to play the titular role in the planned live-action Barbie film. “When I look in the mirror I know who I am. Im a great friend, sister, daughter and girlfriend,” Schumer captioned a photo of herself wearing a swimsuit at the beach. “I’m a bada** comic headlining arenas all over the world and making tv and movies and writing books where I lay it all out there and I’m fearless like you can be.” Schemer went on to thank her fans “for the kind words and support” and to send her “deepest sympathy…to the trolls who are in more pain than we will ever understand.”
