“Billions,” “The Handmaid’s Tale” and “A Spy Among Friends” star Stephen Kunken will direct a film about “The Catcher in the Rye” author J.D. Salinger.
Kunken is currently preparing to star in the Royal Shakespeare Company’s climate change play “Kyoto” in Stratford-upon-Avon, U.K. The Salinger film, titled “The Red House,” will be Kunken’s follow-up to his feature directorial debut “Before/During/After” (2020), which won awards at the San Diego, Naples, Greenland and Dances With Films festivals.
“The Red House” is in collaboration with playwright and screenwriter Richard Nelson, who Kunken previously worked with on the plays “That Hopey Changey Thing,” “Sweet and Sad,” “Regular Singing” and “Nikolai and the Others.”
“I have collaborated with him probably more than any other playwright that I’ve worked with,” Kunken told Variety of Nelson. “I love him and I’m thrilled to make the jump to this new relationship with him.”

Gold Derby associate editor Latasha Ford was on the DGA Theater red carpet to interview stars Jon Hamm and Jennifer Jason Leigh, as well as creator and director Noah Hawley and executive producer Warren Littlefield. Watch the exclusive red-carpet interviews above.
The latest installment of FX’s “Fargo” is set in Minnesota and North Dakota, 2019.

Apple TV’s flagship series “The Morning Show” returned last fall with its third season and with it comes the show’s best cast to date. Nicole Beharie, Jon Hamm, Tig Notaro, and Stephen Fry all joined the cast while mainstays Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, and Billy Crudup all turned in their best work yet.
However, it’s the show’s supporting players, who have been here since day one, that makes the series so good. Karen Pittman is a prime example of that. The series depicts the behind-the-scenes drama of a US morning TV show and Pittman plays Mia Jordan, a key producer of said show. Pittman has always been an actress who possesses a powerful screen presence and that is true here, too. She captivates audiences (and the other actors) but also smartly sews vulnerability into a character who has some power in the show.

Macy (Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes) and Marcia Cross (You) have signed on to star in Exit Right, a new indie that veteran documentary filmmaker Thomas A. Morgan will direct from his own script for the London-based Garrick Street Productions and Square Zero Films.
Marking Morgan’s narrative debut, the film centers on Jan Randall (Sarandon), whose brain — affected with inoperable cancer — makes her deeply afraid of being trapped inside. Refusing to take medications that would reduce her final days to a hospital bed, she moves into a tent in her backyard. Determined to give her one last gift, her husband John courageously takes her on a trip around the world — on foot, in their own hometown, for what is truly the trip of a lifetime.

On his blog, the writer shared quite some iconic thoughts about the recent world of television series. With directors like Denis Villeneuve adapting the Dune franchise into movies, and Rachel Kondo and Justin Marks creating Shōgun, the world is really turning to the literature realm once again.

After Euphoria made her a recognizable face in Hollywood, Sydney Sweeney’s subsequent efforts in the award winning The White Lotus and the romantic comedy Anyone But You have proved that she is well on her way to becoming a superstar. Apart from her obvious talent, it is Sweeney’s smoldering looks and s*xy appearance that have been major talking points.

When the Emmy nominations are announced July 17, something will happen that hasn’t happened in 50 years: The nominees for best drama series will include only one previously nominated show, Netflix’s The Crown. I would love to be able to say that’s because there are so many great dramas out there and that TV Academy members are diligently watching them and championing different great ones this year. But the truth is, this field, historically among the strongest each season, now looks like a wasteland.
Such perennial nominees as HBO’s Succession and Westworld and AMC’s Better Call Saul have ended, along with second-tier contenders like Paramount+’s The Good Fight and Star Trek: Picard. Some ongoing, previously nominated shows were not back in time to be eligible, in some cases because of delays caused by the writers and actors strikes, including Netflix’s Stranger Things, Squid Game and Bodyguard; HBO/Max’s Euphoria,...

Humanitas has tapped actors/writers June Diane Raphael and Paul Scheer as host of this year’s Humanitas Prizes event, which will take place on Thursday, September 12 (three days before the Emmy Awards) at Avalon Hollywood.

In Apple TV+’s upcoming limited series, Jake Gyllenhaal hopes to be Presumed Innocent and not proven guilty.
Based on the New York Times bestselling novel of the same name by Scott Turow — which of course previously begat the 1990 Harrison Ford/Greta Scacchi/Bonnie Bedelia film — the eight-episode series covers a horrific murder that upends the Chicago Prosecuting Attorney’s office when chief deputy prosecutor Rusty Sabich (played by Gyllenhaal) is suspected of the crime. “The series explores obsession, sex, politics, and the power and limits of love, as the accused fights to hold his family and marriage together,” reads its official description.

One year ago, it was announced that the Netflix streaming service had renewed the serial killer thriller series You for a fifth season, which will also be the final one. We know Penn Badgley is coming back for You season 5 as the lead character Joe Goldberg, and it’s probably a good bet that season 4’s Charlotte Ritchie will continue to have a prominent role in this final season. It has previously been announced that Madeline Brewer of The Handmaid’s Tale will have a series regular role in the new batch of episodes, and now Variety has broken the news that Anna Camp of the Pitch Perfect films and Griffin Matthews of The Flight Attendant have also been cast in series regular roles.
Camp will actually be playing two different characters, as she has been cast as both Raegan and Maddie Lockwood, twin sisters-in-law to Joe Goldberg. Here are their descriptions: “Raegan is the cunning,...

Alfie Allen (Game of Thrones), Shazad Latif (Star Trek: Discovery), and Samira Wiley (The Handmaid’s Tale, Orange Is the New Black) are to star in the newly unveiled Sky original series Atomic.
The five-part “dynamic and action-fueled adventure” series will follow Max (Allen) and Mohammed (Latif) two unlikely friends who become swept up in a cartel’s plot to transport uranium across North Africa and soon face an enormous decision: save themselves or risk everything to prevent a nuclear bomb falling into the wrong hands.
Pursued by Cassie Elliott (Wiley), a highly-skilled CIA agent, along with MI6 and a network of traffickers, Max and Mohammed find themselves, for once, having to be the good guys.
The show, from Gangs of London producer Pulse Films, is written by Gregory Burke (‘71, Entebbe, Rebus) and directed by Shariff Korver (Temple, Do Not Hesitate).

In the age of streaming services, finding the right platform is a tough challenge.

Of course, it's ridiculous to subscribe to literally every video-on-demand platform out there, and if you're wondering which one to try (or which subscription to renew this year), we highly recommend you consider Hulu.
Disney-owned Hulu launched back in 2007, but it's grown to incredible proportions in recent years, offering subscribers top-notch scripted shows that can easily compete with the hits on Netflix, Max, Apple TV+, Disney+, and even traditional TV networks.

More than a decade after winning a guest acting Emmy for her work as quirky lawyer Elsbeth Tascioni on CBS’s “The Good Wife,” Carrie Preston is now seeking lead category recognition for reprising the character on the same network’s “Elsbeth.” If she is included the upcoming Best Drama Actress lineup, she will make Emmys history as the first performer ever nominated as a lead for a winning dramatic guest role.
Preston was awarded the 2013 Best Drama Guest Actress Emmy for her seventh of 14 “Good Wife” appearances, which were spread over six seasons. After landing a second bid for that series in 2016, she showed up in five episodes of the Paramount+ spinoff “The Good Fight,” with her last appearance occurring one month before the series finale in November 2022. “Elsbeth” premiered this February and has already been renewed for a second season.

Hulu + Live TV sees minimal decline following college football and NFL seasons conclude.
Disney is ahead of most companies with its fiscal calendar, but is it ahead of its own goals for streaming profitability? Observers got a look for themselves this week, as Disney unveiled its fiscal earnings results for its second quarter of 2024 on Tuesday.
As part of the report, Disney revealed that its general entertainment streamer Hulu had gained 500,000 customers during the quarter.

Hulu’s list of new releases for May 2024 is missing a certain amount of original series firepower. In the place of a blockbuster like The Handmaid’s Tale or Shōgun, however, is some content diversity.
The first of the month sees the premiere of four-episode British series Shardlake. This mystery drama takes place during the reign of Henry VIII and features none other than Thomas Cromwell (Sean Bean) investigating a murder. Other series of note this month include the Korean drama Uncle Samsik on May 15.
Movies are bit more interesting on Hulu in May. Teen comedy Prom Dates premieres on May 3. That will be followed by the 2023 Adam Drive film Ferrari on May 24. Before all that though is the real heavy hitter. You can watch Austin Butler’s acclaimed performance as The King in Elvis as early as May 1. But get to it quick before the Baz Luhrmann film departs on...
