Hollywood loves sequels, but in the nonfiction space it’s rare for a documentary to get a follow up. However, 15 years after Food, Inc. landed with huge impact, the sequel Food, Inc. 2 premiered at the Telluride Film Festival, bringing a fresh perspective on America’s spoiled food system.
“All of us swore we would never go to this area again,” said Robert Kenner, director of the original Food, Inc. He co-directed Participant’s Food, Inc. 2 with Melissa Robledo, a co-producer on the first film. “But I think on some levels this became such an important story to go tell that we all felt we needed to come back and we could talk about it in sort of stronger terms than we did [before].”
The catalyst for the sequel became the pandemic, which exposed the vulnerabilities of a food system dominated by a handful of massive agribusiness companies including Cargill,...

Washington, D.C., should be a state.
It’s in the United States, as are the over 700,000 people living there who currently have no — read: zero — voting representation in Congress. This should be reason enough for anyone even a little bit concerned with democracy to support granting the district statehood. A majority of Americans do. So does President Biden, as Press Secretary Jen Psaki confirmed last week. So do Democrats in the House of Representatives, who on Monday held a hearing to debate a bill on the issue.

It seems Squirrel Girl is out of her tree, at least temporarily. Although they picked up the 10-episode first season of Marvel's New Warriors TV show back in April of 2017, Freeform has now cancelled its order for the half-hour live-action superhero comedy. THR reports that since Freeform has declined to move forward with New Warriors, Marvel is shopping the series to other outlets in preparation for a 2018 release. Marvel's New Warriors centers on "...six young people learning to cope with their abilities in a world where bad guys can be as terrifying as bad dates." The last we heard, the cast includes Milana Vayntrub as Doreen Green a.k.a Squirrel Girl; Derek Theler as Craig Hollis a.k.a Mister Immortal; Jeremy Tardy as Dwayne Taylor a.k.a Night Thrasher; Calum Worthy as Robbie Baldwin a.k.a Speedball; Matthew Moy as Zack Smith...

The Hollywood Reporter today brings word that Marvel and Freeform’s New Warriors series has filled out its cast, with Milana Vayntrub set to spearhead the ensemble as Doreen Green (Aka Squirrel Girl).
Vayntrub, best known for her work on This Is Us, will be rubbing shoulders with Derek Theler (Mister Immortal), Jeremy Tardy (Night Thrasher), Calum Worthy (Speedball), Matthew Moy (Microbe), and Kate Comer as Debrii. The live-action scripted comedy series will span 10 episodes in its first season and skew toward a younger audience, not unlike Marvel’s soon-to-be-released Cloak and Dagger series.
But whereas Cloak and Dagger focuses on the fiery love story between its titular leads, New Warriors is all about “six young people learning to cope with their abilities in a world where bad guys can be as terrifying as bad dates.” Behind the scenes, series showrunner and all-around Squirrel Girl superfan, Kevin Biegel, released the...

Today we have some new details to share with you regarding the show and it involves the Marvel characters that will be involved. But before we get to that, here's the synopsis:

Squirrel Girl has assembled her squad – and not a moment too soon.
Set to headline Marvel and Freeform’s upcoming New Warriors, USA Today has blown the lid off the half-hour action-comedy series to identify the five costumed crusaders who will be rubbing shoulders with Doreen Green in 2018. Ordered straight to series just over a fortnight ago – it’ll join fellow Marvel show Cloak and Dagger on the network’s burgeoning slate – we know that writer-producer Kevin Biegel (Cougar Town, Scrubs) is attached to pen the script, with the option to serve as showrunner still on the table.
In tandem with today’s reveal, Jeph Loeb, executive producer and head of Marvel Television, spoke to USA Today about what makes Squirrel Girl and Co. so unique, stating that the New Warriors are “the eager, hopeful-for-a-brighter-tomorrow group that also have the wry, sardonic, life-is-hell attitude that makes them uniquely Marvel.”
