    Rockets Star's Pixar Love

    When it comes to movies, Rockets star Dwight Howard is a real shark

    Seems like Dwight Howard is a big movie fan — particularly when it comes to Pixar films.

    The Houston Rockets center joined Fandango and Relativity Sports to host a screening of the animated smash, Inside Out, for children from the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Houston at Santikos Palladium theaters in Richmond on Sunday afternoon.

    Howard mingled with fans, passed out popcorn before the movie began and seemed excited to get lost in the movies after the Rockets season came to an abrupt end in the NBA Western Conference finals last month.

    "When you don't win you get grumpy. I don't want to be a grumpy old man, so think these movies really mellow me out," he said.

    He also harbors film ambitions, with hopes of one day being a voice in a Pixar film. "I'm a big kid trapped in a big man's body," said Howard, who towers nearly 7 feet tall. "You only have one life. You have to live it to the fullest."

    He currently guest stars in Fandango’s original video series, “I Love Movies,” explaining his love for another Pixar film, Finding Nemo, which he says has seen more than 200 times since it was released in 2003.

    In the first episode of the Fandango web series, Howard explains how he relates to the father-son relationship in Nemo, finding parallels to his own dealings with his dad, and does a great Bruce the Shark impersonation.

    On Twitter, Howard recently also gave props to the new movie, Dope, an independent film in theaters now that was a big hit at the Sundance Film Festival in January.

    Jus saw this movie. Didn't get Alotta pub. But it was really good.well written and The message was… https://t.co/cuuHBvdORt

    Award-winning Selena Quintanilla documentary to debut on Netflix

    Selena y Los Dinos was produced by her siblings Suzette and A.B. Quintanilla.

    A documentary about late Tejano singer Selena Quintanilla-Pérez that made a splash at SXSW in Austin is coming to Netflix this winter, the streaming service has confirmed.

    Selena y Los Dinos premiered at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival, and had its Texas debut at SXSW in March. The film racked up awards at both film festivals, including the 2025 SXSW Audience Award in the 24 Beats Per Second category, which focused on musical stories.

    "We are so excited to finally share that our documentary Selena y Los Dinos is coming to Netflix!" said executive producer Suzette Quintanilla in a release. "Grateful to have a platform that helps bring Selena’s story to fans around the world."

    The documentary gives a never-before-seen look into Selena's upbringing and her rise to fame as the "Queen of Tejano Music" alongside her siblings, A.B. III and Suzette. It describes a family rising above financial hardship in the name of making music, while also revealing the close connections that were formed between bandmembers Ricky Vela, Pete Astudillo, and Chris Pérez, who married Selena in 1992.

    The film also recalls the fateful day the 23-year-old singer was shot and killed by her former fan club president, Yolanda Saldívar, on March 31, 1995.

    Directed by Isabel Castro, Selena y Los Dinos feels like a love letter to the late singer from those that knew her the best. Castro told Netflix that she wanted to honor the singer's legacy while also unveiling "new dimensions" of her path to stardom.

    "I am deeply grateful to her family for their trust and support throughout this journey, and I can’t wait for a global audience to experience the magic, heart and community that Selena gave to all of us," Castro said.

    According to Deadline, the streaming deal is estimated to be between $6 to $7 million.
