Hulu’s “We Were the Lucky Ones” is primed for a big night at this year’s Emmys. Adapted from the Georgia Hunter‘s 2017 book of the same name, the limited series follows the Kurcs, a Polish Jewish family who were split apart during World War II: some members go into hiding and others are forced into concentration camps. The series, brutal and dark, follows the family’s attempts to reunite after the war ends. It’s a tough watch but a vital one and the series, created by Erica Lipez, is intelligent in its portrayal of such hard subject matter, as noted by critics.
Aramide Tinubu (Variety) stated: “Devastating, and profoundly moving, ‘We Were the Lucky Ones’ illustrates the scope of World War II, the inhumanity of others and the anguish of disconnection and loss.”
Matthew Gilbert (Boston Globe) observed: “Yes, the miniseries is challenging, and steeped in heartbreak,...

Apple TV+ is sure to perform well at this year’s Emmys with a number of shows strongly positioned including “Lessons in Chemistry,” “Sugar,” “Manhunt,” “The New Look,” and “Masters of the Air.” Well, add in another limited series to that mix — the historical drama “Franklin,” starring Oscar-winner Michael Douglas as the titular Benjamin Franklin.
The show chronicles Franklin’s eight years in France, wherein he attempted to convince King Louis XVI (Tom Pezier) to support the colonies in the American Revolutionary War. The series, as you’d expect, features fabulous costumes, sets, and hair and makeup. It is anchored by a powerhouse performance from Douglas, whose take on Franklin is a more modern one. The show is all the more entertaining for it, as noted by critics.
Michael Starr (New York Post) stated: “My advice is to sit back and enjoy Douglas as he admirably chews the scenery and...

Tobias Menzies has become one of our most reliably excellent actors of late. Classically trained, he had an extensive theatre career in his native England during the noughties and early 2010s before he rose to prominence with roles in “Game of Thrones” and “Outlander.”
Menzies’ profile then increased further thanks to his lauded portrayal of Prince Phillip in “The Crown” and his stock has again risen thanks to his role as another major historical figure in Apple TV’s “Manhunt.” The acclaimed limited series follows the death of President Abraham Lincoln (played by Hamish Linklater) and the subsequent 12-day manhunt for assassin John Wilkes Booth (Anthony Boyle).
Menzies stars as Edwin Stanton, the Secretary of State and personal friend of Lincoln who headed up the hunt for Booth. Menzies proves himself capable of carrying this compelling show entirely on his own. His complex, gruff portrayal of Stanton is what makes the series soar,...

Outside of his popularity in the MCU, Jeremy Renner has been a part of some excellent character-driven films that showed his range as an actor. He first gained significant praise early in his career playing serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer in the 2002 indie film Dahmer. He received further recognition for his incredible performances in The Town and The Hurt Locker.
Jeremy Renner as James Coughlin in The Town
His most overlooked film from the 2010’s is undoubtedly Arrival, directed by Denis Villeneuve years before he did Dune. Villeneuve’s film presented a unique sci-fi take, involving extra-terrestrial creatures which Renner was initially not sure of how it would turn out. The actor was blown away by the genius of Villeneuve and the brilliance of the film after watching it.

If you’ve been anywhere near a television in the last couple of years, odds are you’re already familiar with Dominic Burgess. The British actor broke through in 2017’s “Feud: Bette and Joan” as actor Victor Buono, before popping up in a number of memorable appearances — playing everything from serial killer John Wayne Gacy in “Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story” to an accident-prone man on “The Good Place” whose hideous red boots create an existential crisis for Chidi.
Most recently, the actor has been stealing scenes as Grayman, the stylist to the grande dames (including Kristen Wiig and Allison Janney) on Apple TV’s “Palm Royale” — and as Hamish Moss, a director on the rise on “American Horror Story: Delicate.” That is, he was on the rise before the April 3 episode, in which Moss met a gruesome death at the hands of Kim Kardashian’s devilish publicist.

The Grotesquerie teaser offers no visuals, just the voice of Nash-Betts. “I don’t know when it started. I can’t put my finger on it. But it’s different now. There’s been a shift.

You think, ‘Well hon, evil has always existed,’ and cite some statistic about how the world’s getting better, less murder, more help, less global horror, never been a better time to be alive, honey.

Molly Ringwald stars in Ryan Murphy’s Feud: Capote Vs. The Swans as Joanne Carson, who became one of Truman Capote’s closest friends after her divorce from Johnny Carson. Now that Ringwald has completed the FX limited series, and after previously collaborating with Murphy on Netflix’s Dahmer, she’s already thinking about what type of role she’d like to take on if she works with the prolific showrunner again.
During Ringwald’s interview on Late Night With Seth Meyers on Tuesday, the host pointed out that the Sixteen Candles alum plays a “kind person” in Feud, as she did in Dahmer. “I think nobody has ever had a two-Ryan-Murphy-show streak of playing a nice person,” Meyers said. He then asked, “Do you have a dream if you collaborated with him again of what you would be cast as?”
“Yes,” Ringwald responded. “I would like to play a psycho bitch.

Sam Taylor-Johnson’s upcoming Amy Winehouse biopic “Back to Black” may have access to the late singer’s globally recognized back catalog, but another legendary musician is lending his talents to the project.
Nick Cave, alongside his long-time collaborator Warren Ellis, is scoring the StudioCanal and Focus Features film, which sees “Industry” star Marisa Abela play Winehouse. Abela is joined by a cast including Jack O’Connell (playing Blake Fielder-Civil), Eddie Marsan (Mitch Winehouse), Juliet Cowan (Janis Winehouse) and Lesley Manville.
Variety has been given an exclusive photo taken of Cave, Ellis and Taylor-Johnson recording in the studio earlier this week.
While Winehouse’s own songs, such as “Back to Black” (which featured in the recent trailer), “Valerie” and “Rehab” will undoubtedly take center stage in the film (with most recorded and performed by Abela), Cave and Ellis are understood to have composed about 20-30 minutes of music.

Black women are consistently underestimated, disregarded, and overlooked in the entertainment industry, but I've been so inspired by Black stars' joy and self-love this awards season. From Quinta Brunson to Niecy Nash, our favorite actresses have already celebrated their well-deserved flowers - and I'll be watching the upcoming Grammys to see if that trend continues.
If you've missed all the bright points of this awards season, let me remind you of what's happened so far.

The limited series will debut on the streaming platform on January 25. Netflix’s official logline for the show reads: “Inspired by real events, this fictional dramatization shows Griselda Blanco’s journey from Medellín to becoming ‘the Godmother’ of Miami’s drug empire.”
On Friday (January 19), news broke that Griselda‘s adult children, representing her estate, have taken legal action against Sofia, who served as an executive producer on the project, in an attempt to halt the series’ release.

Glee alums Kevin McHale and Jenna Ushkowitz have revealed how the cast’s “bratty” behavior resulted in show co-creator Ryan Murphy refusing to come to set after the third season. Before he was known as the prolific producer-writer-director behind American Horror Story, Pose, American Crime Story, 9-1-1, Dahmer, and more, Murphy found one of his first major successes with Glee, the musical comedy-drama he co-created with Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan that aired for six seasons on Fox between 2009 and 2015. However, the show was often the center of controversy and behind-the-scenes drama between its cast and crew. Things are said to have gotten so bad that Murphy walked out after a particularly tense shoot during the making of Season 3 – and didn’t return. McHale and Ushkowitz detailed what happened on a recent episode of their Glee-based podcast series, And That’s What You Really Missed. The pair, who played Artie Abrams and Tina Cohen-Chang,...

Real-life serial killer John Wayne Gacy has been the subject of a handful of horror movies over the years, played by Brian Dennehy in To Catch a Killer (1992), Mark Holton in Gacy (2003), and William Forsythe in Dear Mr. Gacy (2010). And then there’s 2010’s Dahmer vs. Gacy (yeah…) and the same year’s 8213: Gacy House, the latter a found footage horror movie.
Up next? Quiver Distribution is getting set to release brand new indie horror movie Gacy: Serial Killer Next Door later this month, and the official trailer has arrived this week.
In director Michael Feifer’s horror movie, “A teenager’s life in a quiet suburb changes drastically when John Wayne Gacy, a famed serial killer, becomes his neighbor. His curiosity leads to dark secrets and a frightening journey from innocence to a dire clash with evil.”

What makes the results of Monday night’s 75th Emmys particularly interesting to me is that they come at the end of a season unlike any other, in which virtually all traditional Emmy campaign tactics — as in, famous people shaking hands, kissing babies, doing interviews, appearing on FYC panels, etc. — were removed from the equation.
Even during the Covid-impacted 2020 and 2021 Emmy seasons, talent did press and made appearances, albeit remotely, which unquestionably shaped the viewing and voting priorities of TV Academy members. But the 2023 Emmy season — nomination voting for which ran June 15-26, final voting for which ran Aug. 17-28 — had none of that, at least after the Writers Guild went on strike on May 2, followed by SAG-AFTRA on July 14, with the former not resolving until Sept. 27 and the latter until Nov. 9.
Therefore, it seems to me, voter considerations that led to the nominees that we got were as follows:...

It’s official: Better Call Saul hasn’t won a single Emmy.
The acclaimed Breaking Bad spinoff scored 53 Emmy nominations over its six-season run but failed to win a single award. The final season was nominated for seven awards at the 2023 Emmys, including the top prizes of best actor in a drama series and best drama series.
During its AMC run, Breaking Bad won 16 Emmys, including two awards for best drama series.
But Saul, which also aired on AMC, couldn’t compete with its predecessor’s Emmy success.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter ahead of Monday’s Emmys, Better Call Saul actress Rhea Seehorn, nominated for supporting actress in a drama series, indicated she was happy with the series even if it went into history without an Emmy win.

Awards shows are self-congratulatory parties that rarely feel like they're actually made for the audiences at home, but the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards actually felt like a worthy celebration of the artform of television. Because it's a special anniversary year, they made the effort to really pay tribute to the television we love and the people who create it, and it made for a relatively safe but extremely heartfelt 2024 Emmy awards. It was an incredible night for diversity, with numerous well-deserved, historic wins for people of color across a range of categories, and everyone actually seemed like they were having a good time.
The Golden Globes are more meme-worthy, but the Emmys feel like the Oscars of TV, just with less irritating self-importance. Sure, the Emmys detail the impact of television on us all, but since TV has always been cinema's little brother, there's a bit more deprecation and self-awareness.

Host Anthony Anderson kicked off the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards on Jan. 15 — with the comedic support of his mom, Doris Hancox — crowning the best TV of the 2022–2023 season. Netflix earned nominations across 34 titles, and won a total of 22 awards, including big sweeps for Queer Eye and Beef. In fact, the Fab 5 hold the record for the most Outstanding Structured Program Emmys with their sixth consecutive win. After winning three Golden Globes, Beef continued to sweep the awards circuit, nabbing awards for eight of its 13 Emmy nominations. And it was another big night for Ali Wong, who became the first woman of Asian descent to win an Emmy in a lead actress race.
While many great acceptance speeches kept the night lively, Niecy Nash-Betts, who won best supporting actress in the limited series category for her portrayal of Glenda Cleveland in Dahmer, acknowledged...

Beef took home the trophy for best limited series at the 2023 Emmy Awards. The win came on top of five other accolades for the show the same evening, including acting awards for both stars.
“A lot of the suicidal ideation in this show was based on stuff that I and some of the folks up here have struggled with over the years,” creator Lee Sung Jin said. “I’m really grateful and humbled by everyone who watched the show and reached out about their own personal struggles. It’s very life affirming.”
Beef follows protagonists Danny Cho (Steven Yeun) and Amy Lau (Ali Wong) navigating a road-rage incident that cascades into a drawn-out feud between them. The Hollywood Reporter critic Angie Han celebrated the show as “a feast of sharp comedy” with “wild thrills and disarming empathy.”
“I feel like we live in a world designed to kind of keep us separate,...

Turns out, it wasn’t much of a challenge at all.
“Squid Game: The Challenge” dominated Netflix’s overall leaderboard in its debut week, when it drew 20.1 million views. The unscripted competition series picked up where the I.P. left off in 2021, bumping Part 1 of “The Crown’s” sixth season to second place (8.8 million views) for the week of November 20, 2023.
“Squid Game: The Challenge,” filmed in the UK, is an English-language series; Og “Squid Game” was a Korean-language series dubbed into local languages. As such, the scripted show technically rests atop Netflix’s “Non-English” list, though it blows away all the English-language stuff anyway.
“The Challenge” was so big it brought “Squid Game” back to the Global Top 10 for non-english series — at no. 6 with 1.6 million views — its 21st appearance. The scripted show hadn’t made the list since the week ending June 19, 2022. The long Thanksgiving holiday weekend sure helped the streams pile up.

The new Disney animated movie Wish is now in theaters and there are so many great actors in the cast, some who you probably didn’t even realize have lent their voices to the project.
Oscar-winning actress Ariana DeBose leads the cast as Asha, our hero, and she’s supported by a lot of actors who you definitely will recognize.
Wish is an all-new musical-comedy welcoming audiences to the magical kingdom of Rosas, where Asha, a sharp-witted idealist, makes a wish so powerful that it is answered by a cosmic force—a little ball of boundless energy called Star. Together, Asha and Star confront a most formidable foe—the ruler of Rosas, King Magnifico—to save her community and prove that when the will of one courageous human connects with the magic of the stars, wondrous things can happen.
