BY KENNIE BASS  FRIDAY, MARCH 25TH 2016 August 14, 2015 "The Man From U.N.C.L.E." Studio: Warner Bros. Rated PG-13for action violence, some suggestive content, and partial nudity In the 1960s, the United States and Soviet Union weren`t exactly on the best of terms. But at the height of the Cold War, the two sides come together to try and save the world. Based on a 60s TV series in which the stars worked for the United Network Command for Law and Enforcement,"The Man From U.N.C.L.E." features Napoleon Solo (Henry Cavill) and Illya Kuryakin (Armie Hammer) as secret agents with very different ways of doing their jobs. But, they team up on a joint mission to stop a rogue organization from obtaining nuclear weapons. However, their relationship gets off to a rocky start, with Illya trying to do Solo in.

Image
MARCH 15, 2016 5:30PM Colin Vickery News Corp Australia Network STUFF retirement! That is David McCallum’s attitude to life. The 82-year-old is still going strong as Dr Donald “Ducky” Mallard in NCIS.  The  Scottish-born actor  was best known as Ilya Kuryakin  in 1960s spy series The Man from U.N.C.L.E.  before he joined the cast of the US navy crime drama. (...)  McCallum goes into a reflective mood when asked about the recent movie remake of The Man from U.N.C.L.E.  “It was such a big change in my life leaving Britain and going to America, getting the series, and it being successful,” McCallum says. “It also marked a big personal change because my wife Jill (Ireland) went off with Charles Bronson and I met Katherine. I met her 50 years ago and we’ve been married for 48 of them and have our children and grandchildren.” To read the complete story click here.

Henry Cavill admits making loads of a money is one of the primary motivations behind his acting career.  The 32-year-old Man of Steel star has amassed a $14 million (£9.8 million) fortune, according to   CelebrityNetWorth.com , and he has no shame being honest about the financial perks of his profession. (...) Henry co-starred with Armie Hammer in director Guy Ritchie's 2015 release The Man from U.N.C.L.E., and although there was a huge buzz around the flick, which was made with a budget of $75 million (£52 million), it didn't do very well commercially, having earned just $109 million (£76 million) at the global box office. "It didn't do badly, but it should have done better, because everyone I've spoken to loved it," he notes. "Maybe it should have been marketed slightly
