DENZEL WASHINGTON IS MACBETH Shakespeare gets a bold, black-and-white film adaptation in The Tragedy of Macbeth (Jan. 14 on Apple TV+), starring Washington, 67. Frances McDormand, 64, is his Lady Macbeth, who urges her husband, now in his twilight years, to kill King Duncan in a bid to gain the Scottish throne. Macbeth is normally played by a younger actor to explain the character’s unbridled ambition. Washington explains his and McDormand’s casting: “There is a built-in sense of urgency. This is the last go-round. [People our age] understand that.”

GINNIFER GOODWIN PIVOTS INTO COMEDY

The new comedy series Pivoting (Jan. 9 on Fox) follows a trio of Long Island women (Goodwin, Maggie Q and Eliza Coupe), who—faced with the reality that life is short—make a series of impulsive, ill-advised and self-indulgent decisions. Goodwin, 43, who starred previously in the ABC fantasy drama Once Upon a Time, plays Jodie, a stay-at-home mom of three who escapes her smothering husband by having an affair with her hot trainer (JT Neal). As the show cheekily suggests, “It’s never too late to screw up your life.”

The daughter of actor parents, Winslet began training at age 10 at the Redroofs Theatre School in England.

ALL ABOUT KATE

When the 27th annual Critics Choice Awards show airs (Jan. 9 on the CW and TBS), Kate Winslet, 46, will be in the running for Best Actress in a Limited Series or Movie Made for Television for her performance as a police detective in Mare of Easttown. Here are some fun facts about the actress, who made her movie debut at 17 in the film Heavenly Creatures and has been Oscar-nominated seven times, including for Sense and Sensibility, Titanic, Iris, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Little Children and Steve Jobs. She won Best Actress in 2009 for The Reader. 2 | JANUARY 9, 2022

She has an odd quirk: “I’m a little bit obsessive about my feet.” As a result of her close friendship with Leonardo DiCaprio after making Titanic, Winslet’s three children call him “Uncle Leo.”

After finding out that the “drawing room” scene in Titanic required her to be nude in front of DiCaprio, she broke the ice by flashing him. In 2011, Winslet was lauded for her heroism the night Richard Branson’s Caribbean home caught on fire and she helped carry out his 90-year-old mother, Eve.

JOE MONTANA

For a first-hand account of the career of the Pro Football Hall of Famer, 65, check out Joe Montana: Cool Under Pressure (Jan. 6 on Peacock). The documentary covers his earliest days as a high school All-American, his gridiron glory at Notre Dame and his four Super Bowl wins with the San Francisco 49ers. Montana’s family, former teammates, coaches and admirers share their memories of the man nicknamed the “Comeback Kid” and “Joe Cool.” Your football career is well-documented. What does Cool Under Pressure add to your story? There’s a lot more when I was young—the trials and tribulations I had to go through, starting in high school, the ups and downs of my career, the whys and how I got to where I am. Then there are things that took place later on that I don’t think anyone knew about, except for the people closest to me. Do you have a proudest career moment? We played Philadelphia in Philadelphia, and that [1989] game I’ll never forget. They were a big, physical team, and everyone kept saying, “You guys can’t handle them.” We were down by three touchdowns in the fourth quarter, and we ended up coming back to win. The struggle that we went through, and the leap—I’ll never forget. You’ve won four Super Bowls, which means four rings. Do you ever wear them? No, they’re in the safe.

New Year

n a rare coincidence, some of the biggest names in paint, including Benjamin Moore, SherwinWilliams, PPG and Behr, all chose the same hue for their 2022 Color of the Year. This year, it’s all about green. “Warm, muted tones like olive, sage, moss and eucalyptus can be used as a base for other vibrant accents in your home—they’re nature’s neutral,” says Valerie Stafford, partner at Rumor Designs, the 2021 HGTV Designer of the Year winner, whose team chose green hues for custom cabinetry, trim and doors in this cabin getaway. In addition to paint, here are some more fun ways to go green. —Megan O’Neill Melle

Loud music captures our attention and takes us out of our individual real worlds. The positive immersion may even cause euphoria. And from an evolutionary view, we ﬁnd loud music intensely exciting because in nature, loudness is always associated with major events. Overall, loud music functions like a recreational drug that requires no prescription and thus isn’t seen to be a serious threat. Youthful enthusiasts don’t really believe it will damage their hearing: They think such talk is just a warning from pesky elders that it might.

ourteney Cox has gotten funnier with age. “I’m really goofy; I make a fool of myself,” she says—especially on her Instagram page. Under a bio that reads simply, “I played piano with Elton John,” are posts of funny skits with her A-list actor and singer friends, and clips of her cooking where she’s making faces as well as mistakes. “If I’m getting funnier, it’s because I’m more conﬁdent—taking more chances, more risks,” she says. It’s a sunny afternoon when Cox, 57, sits down to talk to Parade in a plain gray T-shirt, hair casually pulled back into a low ponytail, a lush view of hills out the windows behind her and a glass of freshly prepared watermelon juice in her hand. By the sound of it, sitting still like this is rare for the actress, who lives with her daughter, Coco, 17 (her child with her ex-husband, David Arquette), and has been dating songwriter and Snow Patrol guitarist Johnny McDaid for the past eight years. Since Cox began acting four decades ago, she has starred in Friends, Dirt, Cougar Town and all the movies in the Scream franchise. She recently produced three seasons of the Facebook Watch docuseries 9 Months With Courteney Cox, which was nominated for a Daytime Emmy. And she’ll soon be starring in two new projects that—funny, for a woman best known for comedy—both happen to be in the horror genre.

COURTENEY

COX

ISNÕT AFRAID The Friends alum on her horror legacy, growing up in Alabama, the dance that launched her career and why she’s never felt so fulﬁlled. BY AMY SPENCER • COVER AND OPENING PHOTOGRAPHY BY FRANK W. OCKENFELS 3

We’ll first see Cox in Scream (in theaters Jan. 14), a reimagining of the original, which revitalized the sagging slasher genre when it was released in 1996. “We’re not making the fifth of something,” says Cox. “This is an absolute, brand-new relaunch of the franchise”—a meta take on the four prior films, with some fresh faces and the return of some “legacy” cast. Along with two other original Scream stars—Neve Campbell as Sidney Prescott and Arquette as Dewey Riley—Cox reprises her role as news reporter Gale Weathers, who is now “a little less campy,” she says. “I think she’s also happier in some ways. She’s more legit now. She has a more serious job.”

Cox and her original costars are so comfortable in their roles, “I think we were sillier on set,” she says of the new project, filmed without horror pioneer Wes Craven, who directed the first four movies and died in 2015 of brain cancer at age 76. “It was such an emotional thing to come back,” she says, “and I had the same feeling when I walked on the set of Friends [for the reunion]. I got really teary-eyed then too.” But it was clear to her that Scream’s new directors, Matt BettinelliOlpin and Tyler Gillett, were bringing the same passion, while the new cast brought fresh energy. The result is a movie she feels would make the original proud: “It’s nuanced and it’s funny and you have no idea who the killer is.” This winter, Cox also will be back on the small screen in the half-hour horror-comedy Shining Vale (March 6 on Starz). She plays Pat Phelps, a nowsober writer of one famously raunchy book 17 years earlier (“a feminist empowerment story,” her character claims) who’s having marital issues with her husband, Terry (Greg Kinnear). In an effort to start fresh, Pat and Terry move from Brooklyn with their two teenagers (Gus Birney and Dylan Gage) to a large, creepy house in the suburbs, where Pat is the only person in the family who sees the ghosts haunting it. And since her own mother began feeling the effects of schizophrenia around the same age, Pat can’t tell if she’s mentally ill—or possessed. continued on page 9

from page 8

It’s a meaty story Cox couldn’t resist. “Mental health, menopause, possession, depression, marriage, inﬁdelity, raising a teenager—all of it,” she says. “It packs a big punch. They call it a horrorcomedy, but some of my best scenes I’ve ever had in my whole life are in this half-hour show.” Cox relishes the complexity of her character, which lets her push herself in ways she never has before. “I think I worked harder on this part than I ever have. I love this job, I really love it. I’ve never felt this fulﬁlled as an actor before. How lucky to have this, at this point. I’m so happy.”

DANCING WITH THE BOSS Cox, the youngest of four, was raised in Birmingham, Ala., in an area she only now appreciates for its rolling hills and beautiful countryside. When she was 10, her parents divorced and she grew even closer with her mother, who became her best friend. “She was a great mom,” says Cox, who shared all the gritty details of her teenage life with her mother, who died in 2020. “I didn’t want to sneak and go behind her back. Whatever trouble I got into, I wanted her to know so we could have a really close relationship—because when your parents get divorced, you want that.” At 13, Cox got a job selling candy to raise money for a foundation. In high school, she worked at a pool store. And at summer camp, she took to the stage, once playing Anna in The King and I. But Cox didn’t realize she could build a career as an actress until she got an agent in New York. There, she modeled, booked a commercial for Tampax, played a debutante named Bunny on

As the World Turns and nabbed the part that launched her career. It was 1984 when Cox was famously cast to be pulled onstage to dance with Bruce Springsteen during a live concert for his “Dancing in the Dark” video—which, in a sign of her scream-queen career to come, was directed by Brian De Palma, who made the horror hit Carrie. A day or so before, knowing she had been cast to dance in the audience, she met the Boss for the ﬁrst time with De Palma. “They both had the ﬂu, or had colds, and they weren’t feeling great,” she recalls. “And when one of them said, ‘OK, so when Courteney goes up onstage,’ I went, ‘Oh, what?!’ ” And she’s remained on the world’s stage ever since.

MIXING IT UP While her career has been hot, Cox’s nonwork life is just as interesting. “I’m happy that I have a lot of hobbies. I love to play tennis, I love to play the piano, I love to cook, I love design, I love to act, I love clothes, I love to have a dance party. I just have so many passions continued on page 10

I love our friendship in that way.” One of Cox’s other hobbies: hosting star-studded music nights on Sundays at her home. That’s how she met McDaid, when her singer-songwriter friend Ed Sheeran invited him over. “I just remember thinking, Oh, that guy is handsome, and look at those eyes!” she recalls. “We ended up having a date, like, three weeks later.” They’ve now been together eight years. “You would think that having a musician that travels would be annoying, but I actually love it!” says Cox. “I love music.” Which is why she’s made music a part of her life—and why she began taking piano lessons as an adult.

Government Melts Over 270 Million Silver Dollars But collectors get an unexpected second chance It’s a crime. Most Americans living today have never held a hefty, gleaming U.S. silver dollar in their hands.

LOW AS

$699each5

Where did they go? In 1918, to provide aid to the British during WWI, the U.S. government melted down nearly half of the entire mintage—over 270 million silver dollars. And these weren’t just any silver dollar—they were America’s largest circulated coin, the beloved Morgan Silver Dollar. Created by famed American coin designer, George T. Morgan, the Morgan Silver Dollar features Lady Liberty’s radiant profile and a majestic eagle, symbols of American strength and prosperity. Since their inception in 1878, these 90% fine silver coins jingled in the pockets of famous (an infamous) Americans like John D. Rockefeller, Teddy Roosevelt, Jesse James and Al Capone. Today, Morgan Silver Dollars are the most collected vintage coin in America.

Lady Liberty takes a Final Bow

Just three years after the massive meltdown, the government gave the Morgan Silver Dollar a final chance to shine. In 1921, facing a serious shortage, the mint struck Morgan Silver Dollars for one more brief, historic year. Today, the last-ever 1921 Morgan Silver Dollar belongs in the hands of collectors, history buffs, or anyone who values the artistry and legacy of this American classic.

A Never-Ending Hunt for Collector Quality

Millions more silver dollars were melted during the ensuing years and today, private hoards account for virtually all the surviving Morgan Silver Dollars. We should know—we’re constantly on the hunt for these historic coins, and jump at the chance to secure them in collector-worthy condition. And what luck—we’ve managed to locate a stash of 1,300 Morgan Silver Dollars, all struck in 1921 at the Philadelphia Mint, and all in Brilliant Uncirculated (BU) condition. These coins never circulated, and retain their mint luster from 100 years ago!

Saved from Destruction, but Bound for Extinction

Actual size is 38.1 mm

15% of all the Morgan Dollars ever minted have survived to the present day. And the number grows smaller with each passing year. The 1921 Morgan Silver Dollar is the last of its kind. But you can get one now before they’re only a memory.

Don’t Miss Out on this Incredible Low Price Offer

Today, you can secure your very own 1921 Morgan Silver Dollar—the last Morgan Silver Dollar ever struck—in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, for as little as $69.95 each.

ing piano? “When Elton John comes to your house, and you have to play ‘Tiny Dancer,’ and he’s sitting next to you, and you just learned it maybe 30 minutes before he came over,” she says with a laugh. Sheeran, who was staying with Cox at the time, asked, “‘Is it all right if I have Elton over for dinner?’ and I’m like, ‘What?! Yes, it is OK! My God!’ That was a thrill of my lifetime.” They also were joined that night by singer Brandi Carlile, whose video for “Right on Time” was directed by Cox last summer. Cox had directed before (including the 2014 comedy Just Before I Go and 12 episodes of Cougar Town), so when she had an idea for Carlile’s song, she pitched it to her. “I acted it out, because I’m very visual,” she says. It was about “how we have our own boundaries that we put upon ourselves. How we think we can’t do something, and we just need to try.” It’s an idea close to her own heart. Since the day she moved out of her mother’s home to follow her dreams in New York, Cox has been working on being more conﬁdent and less worried. “I’d say these last three years have been much more of a learning thing than any other time in my life.” Which is why her goals now are to do what she loves, let go of what she doesn’t and keep taking risks. The word she’d use to describe her life right now? “Possible,” she says. “There are so many possibilities right now that, I don’t know, I just feel like nothing’s written in stone.” Visit Parade.com/cox to see 25 throwback photos of Courteney through the years. 12 | JANUARY 9, 2022

uperstar Chris Hemsworth shares two of his favorite go-to smoothies that help him boost his energy and stay in shape.

“When Zocchi demands I get up early for a workout, this quick glass of goodness gives me the energy I need to outperform him in every way. It also works for early-morning set calls or surfing,” says Hemsworth. “But mostly for beating Zocchi.” In a blender, combine 1½ cups almond milk (or other dairy alternative), ½ cup frozen blueberries, ¼ cup vanilla protein powder (or natural protein powder), 2 Tbsp rolled oats (or brown rice flakes or quinoa flakes), 1½ Tbsp almond butter (or other nut butter) and 1 medium banana, frozen. Blend until smooth. Serves 1.

Even Thor needs to satisfy his sweet tooth occasionally. “Still craving smoothies after dinner?” says Hemsworth. “This is my go-to when I'm bulking up for a movie.” In a blender, combine 1 cup almond milk (or other dairy alternative), ½ cup vanilla protein powder (or natural protein powder), 1/3 cup rolled oats (or brown rice ﬂakes or quinoa ﬂakes), 1 tsp cocoa powder (or cacao powder), 1 medium banana, 1/3 avocado and 4 ice cubes. Blend until smooth. Serves 1.
