His other directed films include The Man from U.N.C.L.E. (2015), based on the 1960s television series, King Arthur: Legend of the Sword (2017), and Aladdin (2019), Disney's live-action adaptation of their 1992 animated film, which grossed over $1 billion worldwide, becoming one of the highest-grossing films in 2019 and the highest-grossing film of Ritchie's career. In 2019, he returned to crime comedy with The Gentlemen (2019), which was mostly well received and a commercial success. He subsequently reteamed with Jason Statham on the action films Wrath of Man (2021) and Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre (2023). His second film of 2023, The Covenant, received generally positive reviews.

Madonna Louise Veronica Ciccone, nota semplicemente come Madonna (Bay City, 16 agosto 1958) è una cantautrice e attrice statunitense.

Celebre a livello internazionale sin dai primi anni ottanta e considerata un'icona culturale del ventesimo e del ventunesimo secolo, Madonna è definita The Queen of Pop (la "Regina del Pop") per le numerose innovazioni apportate alla musica pop e per aver ridefinito i canoni del ruolo della donna all'interno dell'industria musicale. Le opere di Madonna, che incorporano temi sociali, politici, sessuali e religiosi, hanno suscitato sia polemiche che consensi da parte della critica. Tra i suoi album più acclamati Like a Virgin (1984), True Blue (1986) e Like a Prayer (1989), così come il vincitore del Grammy Award per il miglior album pop Ray of Light (1998) e Confessions on a Dance Floor (2005), anch'esso vincitore di un Grammy.

Come imprenditrice, Madonna ha fondato una compagnia chiamata Maverick (compresa l'etichetta Maverick Records) nel 1992. Altre sue creazioni includono design di moda, libri per bambini, centri benessere e cinema. Collabora a varie organizzazioni benefiche, avendo fondato la Ray of Light Foundation nel 1998 e Raising Malawi nel 2006. Secondo il Guinness dei primati, Madonna è l'artista femminile dalle maggiori vendite della storia della musica, con all'attivo oltre 400 milioni di dischi in tutto il mondo, di cui 83 milioni nei soli Stati Uniti d'America (sommati tra 64,5 di album e 18,5 di singoli), il che la rende l’artista femminile con maggiori vendite della storia.

Insieme a Whitney Houston, è la cantante con più dischi venduti negli anni ottanta, con 355 settimane nella Billboard Hot 100 e 21 hit certificate. È inoltre l'artista ad aver piazzato più DVD musicali alla prima posizione nella Billboard 200 negli USA, con nove titoli fino allo Sticky & Sweet Tour del 2010, che ha detenuto per 13 anni il record come tour più redditizio della storia per un'artista femminile, venendo superato nel 2024 dal The Eras Tour di Taylor Swift.

Nella sua carriera ha vinto numerosi premi, tra cui 5 Billboard Music Awards e 7 Grammy Awards. Ha intrapreso anche una carriera cinematografica, vincendo il Golden Globe per la migliore attrice in un film commedia o musicale per Evita (1996) e per la migliore canzone originale per Masterpiece, tratta dal film da lei diretto W.E. - Edward e Wallis (2011).
