After lapping up near unanimous praise in the wake of its debut at Tiff 2015, Brie Larson’s poignant drama Room is all but the talk of the town, with many a critic – including our own Darren Ruecker – highlighting the raw and emotional turn by Larson as some of the actress’ finest work to date. In many ways it represents the culmination of a burgeoning career, following roles in Short Term 12, Trainwreck and opposite Mark Wahlberg in The Gambler; now, Larson is on the verge of joining Steve Carell in Battle of the Sexes.
Joining the production in place of Emma Stone – who bowed out citing scheduling conflicts, and effectively scuppering plans for a mini Crazy, Stupid, Love reunion – Variety reports that Larson will pick up the torch and tennis racket as Billie Jean King, a 29-year-old female tennis player who called Carell’s Bobby Riggs out of retirement for a match.

The stands at the Wimbledon tennis championships in London this week have been filled with famous faces despite the rain. Yesterday, Brooklyn Decker cheered on her husband, Andy Roddick, as he beat Jamie Baker. During a rain delay, Brooklyn headed indoors to hang out with doubles player Bob Bryan's baby daughter Micaela. The royal box at Wimbledon has also been full with Prince Charles and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, watching Roger Federer take on Italy's Fabio Fognini. Today, though, Pippa Middleton had the privilege of sitting in the royal seats with her brother James. Pippa wore a navy Orla Kiely dress and jacket to check out multiple matches on Center Court. Last year, Pippa brought boyfriend Alex Loudon to the tennis event, but this time it was all about family since Carole Middleton was also on hand. Kate attended in 2011 as well, and we're hoping the winner of PopSugar 100 makes an appearance this year!
