Q: I just saw a listing for a movie called "Iron Mask," starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jackie Chan, that's apparently a year old. How have I never heard of this before?

Frankly, because it wasn't made for you.

Everything about this movie defies belief, from the outlandish hairpieces worn by stars Jackie Chan and Arnold Schwarzenegger to the fact that it's actually a sequel to one of the biggest hits of all time (in Russia).

This film, a Chinese-Russian co-production, is actually a sequel to the 2014 adventure "Forbidden Kingdom" (or "Forbidden Empire," depending on which country you're in), which featured neither Chan nor Schwarzenneger.

Q: I'm very sad that "Superstore" is ending. I know America Ferrera was big before the show, but where did Jonah and Dina come from?

Working-class sitcom "Superstore," which closed its doors for the last time on March 25, was largely billed as a return to the small screen for America Ferrera of "Ugly Betty" fame. But as you point out, it also gave breakout roles to some rising young comedic actors — particularly Lauren Ash (Dina) and Ben Feldman (Jonah).

On the way to landing this gig of a lifetime, both came up the hard way through increasingly large sitcom roles and supporting film turns.
