Charlie Hunnam Breaks Silence After Exiting Fifty Shades of Grey: I Want to Go On to a New Chapter of Life

Charlie Hunnamis clearing the air. The Sons of Anarchy actor exclusively broke his silence to E! News after stepping down from the role of Christian Grey in the film adaptation of Fifty Shades of Grey. The Hollywood hunk made his first public appearance since the news broke at the 2nd annual "Hogs for Heart" event benefiting One Heart Source Education Programs in Africa at Mo's Restaurant in Burbank, Calif. Charlie joined his SOA cast members as they hosted the evening's festivities. So how is he holding up since dropping out of the highly anticipated flick? "I am doing good. I am just really concentrating on work. It's been a really busy time," he said. In his first appearance since dropping out of “Fifty Shades of Grey,” the “Sons of Anarchy” star maintains a full plate. Find out what he’s doing. "I have had some family stuff going on so just trying to stay focused and stay positive and keep trying to do a good job at work and be with my family and stay positive." Black Juddy has learned that Charlie's father, Billy, had passed away in May of this year and that the actor traveled back to England to be with family at the time. Charlie's currently wrapping up season six of the hit FX series and explained what he plans on doing before his final days as Jax Teller. "Like I said, I've got some family stuff I have to tend to. So when I wrap the show, I am going to go to England and see my people and then I have a film that I am doing with Guillermo[del Toro]. So I am going to go and do that and concentrate on the final seasons ofSons." The Brit also explained how difficult it's going to be to finally say goodbye to his costars. "It's obviously going to be a really emotional time for us. We are like a family and have become very, very close and become dear friends to each other so it's going to be sad and finish up and say goodbye to everyone, but we've got like 13, maybe even a few more, episodes," he said. "There's rumor that we might do a couple of more episodes and do a little bit of an extended season next year, so we will see if that happens. It may or it may not. But I just want to finish that strong and go on to a new chapter of life." The fundraiser, which raised a total of $90,000, was a massive success thanks to the help of Charlie and the rest of the cast. Every child featured at the event was sponsored in at least one category (academically, medically or nutritionally), and the 33-year-old star himself sponsored three children. Charlie spoke about one of the kids he sponsored, Simon, who is 13 years old. "He's an orphan, he lost his mom and his dad and was living on the streets, never been to school a day in his life. Then they found him, this organization," he explained. "We just want to make as much money for these kids as possible." One Heart Source's Kyla Coates, daughter of Sons actor Kim Coates, was especially thankful for the cast being involved in the charity. "We couldn't do this without them and all of their support," she said. "But tonight," Kyla added, "is really about all the work we do in Africa, specifically in Tanzania and South Africa and we really strive to empower vulnerable communities through education. So [we do that by] giving children—and all the community members—the tools and support that they need to empower themselves and really become productive members of society and just get uplifted and become confident and powerful."

Selena Gomez Dating Woes? Singer Jokes About "Single Lady Problems," Becoming "Future Cat Lady"

We've all been there, that moment when you're sitting next to a couple and you feel like the third wheel. Selena Gomeznow knows that feeling all too well. The "Come & Get It" singer posted a cute picof her cousin cuddling up to her boyfriend and it looks like the brunette beauty couldn't help but feel, well, single. "Spending time with my cousin and her man… #3rdwheel #singleladyproblems #futurecatlady #werk," she wrote as a caption to the cute image. And while she and Justin Bieber broke up at the end of last year, this is just the latest in a series of hints that may point to her missing having a special someone. In fact, earlier this month she released a duet with Prince Royce dubbed "Already Missing You." So just who exactly is she missing?! We can't point fingers, but we'll let you connect the dots. The track features lots of techno beats, a fair amount of autotune, and plenty of lusty back-and-forth "missing you's" between Selena and the 24-year-old Latin pop star. (Remember, Jelena fans, it's just a song!) "Feeling a rush, makes me go wild/ Crazy how you know what I think," Selena sings. "I cannot pretend I won't be lonely every minute that you're gone." Meanwhile, Bieber released a single last week called "Heartbreaker," describing how difficult it was to get over his most recent breakup. He explained that the song is "for people going through heartbreak—like I was when I wrote it." "It means so much to me to be able to share what I was, and still am, going through, with my fans. I'm very proud of this song and I hope it gives my fans some insight into my heart." Hmmm…do you think there's a chance that these two may get back together? Weigh in below!

The Fifth Estate: Five Things to Know About the Julian Assange Thriller

After Bill Hader's spot on impersonations on SNL, it was only a matter of time before the official movie hit theaters… We kid! Director Bill Condon(Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 2) presents the story of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange( Benedict Cumberbatch) and his partner in cyber schemes, Daniel Domscheit-Berg (Daniel Brühl) both became underground watchdogs of some of the richest fat cats on the planet. The key was in creating a way for whistle-blowers to leak precious intel without fear of being discovered. After a more than a few scandals, Assange broke a story that gave way to the biggest info dump of confidential intelligence documents in U.S. history. Here's five things to know about the Julian Assange biopic: 1. Wiki What?: No, Wikipedia is not also owned by Julian Assange. The "Wiki" term is just hip with Europeans. (Yeah, it's annoying, but go with it.) Turns out "wiki" is "any website that allows the creation and editing of interlinked webpages via a web browser." Or at least, that what we learned from Wikipedia. 2. Benedict Cumberbatch: From Sherlock to Julian to Smaug: After committing to the part of the 21stcentury's Holmes, Cumberbatch is just as scattered, brilliant and paranoid as Assange. (He also impressed as the just as brilliant Commander "John Harrison" in Star Trek Into Darkness.) A few years ago, most haven't heard of the British thespian, but with a ton of high profile gigs underway he's only getting bigger: like dragon size. This December's Hobbit: the Desolation of Smaug unleashes Cumberbatch as the fire-breathing treasure-hording beastie. 3. Coulda Been A Badly Named Movie.The script is byDaniel Domscheit-Berg,who wrote the book it's based on Inside WikiLeaks: My Time with Julian Assange at the World's Most Dangerous Website. The Fifth Estate(a much better title) refers to the media. Traditionally, the fourth has been the press, which IS the media, but the interwebs took the delivering of info to a whole other level so fifth it is. 4. The Man to Tag: Daniel Brühl. American audiences might not have remembered him from his small role in Tarantino's Inglorious Basterds, but with this year's Rush and now as Daniel, Brühl is becoming the go to guy for compelling yet charming Austrians. (Is that better than being the brilliant, paranoid British one?) InFifth, he's the Andrew Garfield to Jesse Eisenberg's Mark Zuckerberg in The Social Network. Will a superhero franchise be in his future too? 5. Hack the Planet!: Hackers(1995) starred little known actress Angelina Jolie as a cyber teen "Acid Burn" who along with (then real life husband) Johnny Lee Miller's "Crash Override" took down the man long before the real Assange did. (And with rollerblades!) Fitting that the film is just as daffy as the 90s one was at portraying the world of computers. Really,Fifth, a dream like state where Julian and Daniel code away complete with heavy visual FX? That's soooo nineties….

Oscar Watch: 5 Things to Know About 12 Years a Slave

Mark your ballots now, because director Steve McQueen's powerful and unflinching12 Years a Slavewill deservedly score some Oscar gold. Beginning in 1841, the film tells the incredible true story of Solomon Northup ( Chiwetel Ejiofor), a free, well-educated black man from Saratoga Springs, NY, who's abducted and sold into slavery. (At the time, America had 13 Free States and 13 Slave States.) Northup gets traded to several slave holders, including kindly William Ford ( Benedict Cumberbatch) and sadistic Edwin Epps ( Michael Fassbender). Regularly whipped, humiliated, and forced to work the cotton fields of Louisiana, Northup struggles to stay alive as he searches for a means of escape. Find out more with our five essential facts: A 19thCentury Bestseller: John Ridley's screenplay is based on Northup's 1853 memoir,Twelve Years a Slave, which was published just five months after his rescue and eight years before the start of the Civil War. The book was quite popular, selling 30,000 copies in its first two years, but fell into obscurity over the next century. Before even reading the book, McQueen (Shame) had expressed interest in doing a film about the American slave experience. He mentioned the idea to his wife, Bianca, who found Northup's memoir. Meeting the Daunting Challenge: Ejiofor, who was born in London to Nigerian parents, was McQueen's first choice to play Northup, but the Children of Menactor was initially unsure about signing on. Though riveted by the script, Ejiofor knew the film would be physically, emotionally, and psychologically difficult. He also knew hehadto be involved, so he accepted the role and threw himself into research about the antebellum South. The extreme Louisiana heat also helped him relate to Northup's suffering, as temps during the shoot soared over 100 degrees. A Master and His Wife: Fassbender is scary and scary-good as slave owner Epps, a ruthless, drunken, slave-raping rage aholic. The real Epps had such a notorious reputation that to this day Louisiana locals admonish someone by saying, "Stop being Epps." Sarah Paulson(American Horror Story) plays Epps' jealous wife, mortified by her husband's affair with his slave mistress. Paulson confesses she used her own immense attraction to Fassbender's looks and talent to portray Mrs. Epps' complicated feelings for her unfaithful spouse. The Enslaved Mistress: Lupita Nyong'o makes her film debut as Patsey, the unfortunate object of Epps' tormented desire. The Mexican-born, Kenyan-raised Yale graduate beat out 1,000+ actresses after auditioning in three different states. Her prep to play Patsey included reading female accounts of slavery, working with a dialect coach, and even learning to make cornhusk dolls. Nyong'o says her anxiety about working with her onscreen lover/abuser Fassbender was soon dispelled: "On camera, he's terrifying. But in real life, he's a very gentle person." Recreating Dixie: The 35-day shoot began at a plantation in Vacherie, Louisiana, next to where the real Northup spent years in bondage, and included several other historical locations. To accurately depict the era, the filmmakers did exhaustive research and studied paintings, drawings, and etchings. Patricia Norris' costumes also reflect a great level of period detail, though they proved challenging for the actors. Paulson recalls that her wardrobe — heavy corseted dresses with crinolines, petticoats, and bloomers — "couldn't have been more hot! But it also couldn't have felt more authentic."
