This is very appealing. It would also make AMAZING wallpaper.

This seems potentially very cool (and, as ever, her face looks great). I feel like the pants are blending a bit into the step-and-repeat behind her but we can presumably assume they're not secretly, like, insane.

Greta Gerwig

Greta's bottom half is also sort of blending into the background, but I feel comfortable saying this is reasonable.

Laura Dern

Whereas this really pops -- and looks great on her.

Mark Ruffalo

Mark Ruffalo is a fine wine.

Tim Blake Nelson, Bryan Stevenson and Rob Morgan

TBN and Rob Morgan (who always looks great) are both in Just Mercy, the new Brie Larson/Michael B Jordan movie, which is about Bryan Stevenson there in the middle. I feel like any human person who finds out that Michael B Jordan has been cast to play them has to be THRILLED.

Da'Vine Joy Randolph

She's there for Dolemite Is My Name and that skirt/shoe combo is CUTE.

Kaitlyn Dever and Beanie Feldstein

They both look totally reasonable and cute here, but also I finally watched Booksmart -- it's on Hulu now -- and it's SO GOOD. I don't know if I've seen a movie in recent times that so well communicates how profoundly intimate women's platonic relationships can be, and how complicated and important they are. It's also very funny. I wish these two noble land mermaids the best and also I really like Beanie's green shoes.

Paul Walter Hauser

He plays Richard Jewell in the film of the same name, and this is a good overcoat.

Olivia Wilde in La Ligne

And Olivia Wilde did a great job directing it. WELL DONE ALL AROUND LADIES. (Also, these are like VERY professional pajamas. As a person who would like to conduct all her business from bed at all times, this is a compliment.)

F. Murray Abraham

FMA looks dapper AF.

Marielle Heller

I like this -- and also thought the "D" in the step-and-repeat behind her was one very large earring.

Wesley Snipes

There is only one Wesley Snipes!
