‘Weeds’ Alum Hunter Parrish Joins Nicole Kidman in Amazon’s Mystery Thriller ‘Scarpetta’ (Exclusive)
Hunter Parrish has joined Nicole Kidman and Jamie Lee Curtis in “Scarpetta,” an upcoming mystery thriller series from Blumhouse Television that has already been greenlit for two seasons by Amazon Prime Video.
The “Weeds” alum joins an ensemble that also includes Ariana DeBose, Bobby Cannavale, Simon Baker, Rosy McEwen and Jake Cannavale.
The series, an adaptation of Patricia Cornwell’s Kay Scarpetta novels, hails from Blumhouse and Amazon MGM Studios. Liz Sarnoff will serve as writer, executive producer, and showrunner.
According to the logline, the show “follows Kay Scarpetta (Kidman), the chief medical examiner, as she returns to Virginia and resumes her former position with complex relationships, both personal and professional – including her sister Dorothy (Curtis), with plenty of grudges and secrets to uncover.”
Parrish will recur as the younger version of Benton Wesley, presumably in flashbacks. Benton is an FBI profiler who strikes up a romance with Kay in the books.

Two years ago, we heard that American Horror Story regular Sarah Paulson had signed on to star in a horror thriller called Dust, which would be released as a Hulu Original. That film has since made its way out into the world under the title Hold Your Breath, having been released through the Hulu streaming service on October 3rd – and not only do we have a review of the movie that can be read Here and press day interviews that can be found Here, but we also caught up with the cast and filmmakers when they were on the red carpet at the film’s premiere!

Damn. I never did get around to watching The Boys Season 4. It isn’t that I’m not bothered – I love The Boys. But I missed it on the weekly episode rollout. My free time was already going to House Of The Dragon Season 2 (way better than the detractors said) and The Acolyte; which also meant I didn’t manage to binge The Rings Of Power Season 1 in time for Season 2 starting. I really need to start The Penguin, too, but I’ve already begun Agatha All Along and Only Murders In The Building Season 4, so I’ll just try and keep up with those for now. And I’d heard good word about Kaos – the Greek God drama with Jeff Goldblum as a paranoid, tracksuit-wearing Zeus. Except, that show just hit the Netflix scrapheap a mere six weeks (six weeks!) after it launched. Film and TV is basically my job,...

After sharing a tease yesterday, Lionsgate has shared the first official trailer for their upcoming John Wick spinoff Ballerina, which stars Academy Award-nominee Ana de Armas in the lead role as a young assassin named Eve Macarro, who, after a tragedy, begins training in the ways of the Ruska Roma and plots her vengeance against those that wronged her family.
The film's official synopsis reads, "Taking place during the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, the film follows Eve Macarro (Ana de Armas) who is beginning her training in the assassin traditions of the Ruska Roma."
While the trailer does give us plenty of footage of the fan-favorite Cuban actress kicking all kinds of ass across the world, it wraps up with the most epic of cameos as the one-and-only Keanu Reeves reprises his iconic role as John Wick, a.k.a. Baba Yaga, and it looks like he'll...

To announce tomorrow's trailer launch, Lionsgate has shared the first teaser for Ballerina, their upcoming John Wick spinoff that will star Academy Award-nominee Ana de Armas in the leading role as a young assassin named Eve Macarro, who is training in the ways of the Ruska Roma, a group that was first introduced in John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum.
The film's official synopsis reveals the new film's place in the larger John Wick universe and how Keanu Reeves' Baba Yaga, who has been confirmed to appear, may factor into the film's proceedings. It reads, "Taking place during the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, the film follows Eve Macarro (Ana de Armas) who is beginning her training in the assassin traditions of the Ruska Roma."

Here is what we know about Robin Weigert leaving the series and what happens to Teddi Bruin.
Why Did Robin Weigert Leave Tracker?
The reason actor Robin Weigert left Tracker remains unknown. However, thanks to showrunner Elwood Reid, fans know the reason his character, Teddi Bruin, was written out of the show. In a recent interview, Reid said what caused Teddi to leave Colter and her wife and, therefore, the cast.

After Western cowboy flicks and heavy action movies, the world had found its new favorite genre to watch. Drug lords or mafia bosses. Some would say that David Simon’s The Wire was the best of both worlds.

The Wire narrated the story of Detective James McNulty and his team as they investigate drug lords, detective agencies, and more, in the city of Baltimore. The series found critical acclaim and worldwide fame upon its release.
David Simon Hasn’t Watched The Sopranos
Similar to The Wire, a series titled The Sopranos was released in 1999 and starred James Gandolfini. The series dealt with Tony Soprano, an American-Italian mafia head in New Jersey.

The Wire and The Sopranos were somewhat similar in nature. The only difference between the two series was the point of view.

The 2024 Emmys will be held on Sunday night, and while don’t yet know who the night’s big winners will be, it’s a safe bet that the folks responsible for the FX series The Bear and Shogun will have much to smile about.
The Bear leads all comedies with 23 nominations.
While Shogun has the most nods among dramas, with a whopping 25.

The Bear is now the most-nominated sitcom in history.
And you’d have to go back to the early days of The Sopranos to find another instance in which a new drama earned as much acclaim as Shogun.
These shows have a chance to make history on Sunday night, and they’re both easy to root for.
Unlike past award season juggernauts like Game of Thrones, these shows are both underdog series that were never expected to make this big a splash.

In Alex Gibney’s new documentary about the making of The Sopranos, series regular Michael Imperioli offers an interesting explanation for what made the show so different from anything that had come before it.
“Television, in the past, was always about making you feel good,” Imperioli explained.
He added that Sopranos creator David Chase was “all about the opposite” in his own approach to televisual storytelling.

You may be thinking to yourself, Hey, I don’t go in for the feel-good stuff! I like gritty cop dramas like Law & Order: Svu. Nothing wholesome about that!
According to Imperioli, however, TV cop shows exist as a sort of Trojan Horse for good vibes.

This post contains spoilers for "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice."
Those who revisited Tim Burton's original 1988 "Beetlejuice" before seeing the long-gestating sequel (or who have that first movie ingrained in their movie-watching DNA) may have noticed that, amid the return of familiar faces like Michael Keaton and Winona Ryder, a few main actors are largely absent from the follow-up.
As the trailer for "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" reveals, the film sees the Deetz family reunited for the funeral of patriarch Charles Deetz, played by "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" actor Jeffrey Jones in the original movie. As we learn in a flashback that features exaggerated stop-motion puppetry, Charles died on a bird-watching vacation overseas when his plane went down in the ocean and he was eaten by a shark. Throughout the movie, we see glimpses of Charles wandering around the afterlife, his entire upper body missing after being chewed off by the shark. In keeping...

I know it doesn’t feel like 2004 was 20 years ago, but it was, which means many great TV shows just turned 20 years old.
Seriously, 2004 is a sneaky good year for new TV premieres. Most of the titles on this list of good TV shows turning 20 years old in 2024 were broadcast hits. The cable networks had a decent market share in the early 2000s, but we’re still a decade before the streaming industry changed the TV game.
At this point in TV history, we’re still seven years before the Game of Thrones premiere. Remember that, please!
Let’s get the list started with the best show of 2004!

Just in time for Judgment Day, Netflix has a new installment in the “Terminator” franchise for fans of the iconic, long-running sci-fi action franchise. This time, however, you won’t see any familiar faces — the series is animated. However, you might recognize some of the voices, so we’ve put together a handy guide to the “Terminator Zero” cast.
You won’t see Sarah Connor, Kyle Reese or Arnold’s T-800 in this story — it introduces a new timeline and all new characters to go with it. Set in 1997, Japan, “Terminator Zero” focuses on a developer named Malcolm Lee, who is hard at work on another AI system to compete with Skynet and save the human race. Naturally, a Terminator unit is sent back in time to target him and his three children, while a soldier from the future is sent back with a mission of her own.

I remember the moment I realized how much I love television. It was March 2, 2014, and for the first time in years, I skipped the Oscar telecast completely. I did it to watch a new episode of "True Detective," which was nearing the end of its phenomenal, influential, heavily-discussed first season. The show's grip on American pop culture that year was incredible: It won five Emmys, inspired countless parodies, and lit up the internet with theories and Easter egg hunts. People read Robert W. Chambers' "The King in Yellow" after the word "Carcosa" popped up in the show. Viewers made gifs and edits of every single shot of Matthew McConaughey's hilariously bleak protagonist. And, importantly, people in Hollywood clearly started searching for the next "True Detective."
In the years that followed the show's first season, a whole host of TV series appeared that clearly followed the "True Detective" rulebook: Slow-burn criminal investigations,...

Don't let anyone tell you Westerns are dead. They're apparently still alive and well on Netflix, where this week the docudrama "Wyatt Earp and the Cowboy War" has been steadily climbing the streaming charts. According to viewership data site Flixpatrol, the series about the early American lawman is currently being bested in the top 10 most-watched English-language Netflix shows chart by just two other series: true crime docuseries "American Murder: Laci Peterson" and inexplicably popular girlboss rom-com "Emily in Paris."
If your Boomer dad hasn't yet told you about "Wyatt Earp and the Cowboy War," let us do the honors. It's a six-episode Netflix-exclusive series that's a hybrid of narrative nonfiction, talking-head documentary, and intense reenactments. Here's the official synopsis that accompanied the show's trailer on YouTube: "The legendary feud between Wyatt Earp and Ike Clanton unfolds through vivid reenactments in this gritty docudrama about the gunfight that defined an era.

Talk to John Hawkes about “True Detective: Night Country” for any length of time and you’ll get a string of confessions.
When showrunner Issa López offered him the role of police officer Hank Prior, he’d never seen a single episode from the first three seasons of the HBO limited series. He thought the character was too one-dimensional and not nuanced enough. When López said she wanted the character to play guitar in one scene, he didn’t think that was a good idea. And when she said that the instrumental song he’d reluctantly written also needed words for Hank to sing, he resisted for weeks, thinking it’d be too performative.
Hawkes admitted all of these misgivings with typically self-deprecating grins and then shrugged. “I’m glad she prevailed,” he said, “because she’s brilliant.”

Two years ago, we heard that American Horror Story regular Sarah Paulson had signed on to star in a horror thriller called Dust, which would be released as a Hulu Original. That film has since made its way through production and post-production, and along the way it was retitled Hold Your Breath. It’s now set to be released through the Hulu streaming service on October 3rd – and with that date swiftly approaching, a batch of first look images have arrived online! You can check them out in this article.
Coming to us from Searchlight Pictures, Hold Your Breath marks the feature directorial debut of directors William Joines and Karrie Crouse. Crouse wrote the screenplay for the film, which has the following synopsis: In 1930s Oklahoma, amid the region’s horrific dust storms, a woman is convinced that a sinister presence is threatening her family. Another synopsis let us know...

As Rockstar Games readies Grand Theft Auto VI, one historian is looking back at the studio’s 2018 mega-hit open-world Western, Red Dead Redemption 2. Professor Tore C. Olsson’s new book, Red Dead’s History, delves into the real-life inspirations for the infamous Van der Linde gang. The audiobook edition is narrated by Roger Clark, the actor who voiced and performed as game protagonist Arthur Morgan, making Red Dead’s History a must-listen for fans of the beloved game.
Before it was a book, “Red Dead’s History” was a course taught by Olsson at the University of Tennessee. It’s not often video games are used as academic course materials, but the depth of Red Dead’s creators’ research impressed the professor, who started playing the game at the urging of a historian colleague.

Twenty years ago, music editor Micha Liberman won an Emmy Award as part of the sound editing team for the “Deadwood” pilot. Years later, Liberman was again nominated for “Deadwood: The Movie.” But the industry veteran says his double 2024 nominations for “Only Murders in the Building” and “Avatar: The Last Airbender” are “unbelievable,” in part because the pair of nominations better encapsulate Liberman’s long and diverse career.
“If someone spent 17 years working on the same television show and had five nominations from that television show that would make sense – it would be a fair, accurate representation of their career,” Liberman says to Gold Derby in an exclusive video interview. “But it always felt a little misrepresentative of me to have nominations two decades apart from the same franchise. So now that I have the ‘Only Murders’ nomination, which is for a half-hour comedy, that’s completely different from ‘Deadwood.

Over the past 20 years, Sandra Oh has been a darling of the Emmys, accumulating 14 nominations across multiple genres. But surprisingly, she hasn’t won yet. This year she’s nominated for Best TV Movie for producing “Quiz Lady,” in which she also stars with Awkwafina as sisters trying to pay off their mom’s gambling debts. It looks like a close race as none of the five films in the category have any other nominations, so knowing that this is a chance to finally award Oh her first Emmy might tip the scales in her favor.

Oh’s Emmy journey started with “Grey’s Anatomy,” which earned her five straight noms for Best Drama Supporting Actress (2005-2009). Then came the cat-and-mouse thriller “Killing Eve,” for which she received four noms for Best Drama Actress and two for Best Drama Series (2019-...

Years ago, on the set of “Deadwood,” John Hawkes asked co-star Keith Carradine — who had a guitar with him at the time — to sing Carradine’s Oscar-winning song “I’m Easy” from “Nashville.” Carradine did, a memory Hawkes is eager to share when Carradine’s name comes up during an interview.
“I loved that song and that movie,” Hawkes told IndieWire. “I remember watching him perform it at the Academy Awards — probably one of the only times I’ve ever seen the Academy Awards. And I loved [director Robert] Altman’s idea of taking these people who weren’t normally singers and writing their own songs.”
Hawkes himself has long written songs, but that aspect of his career is getting renewed attention thanks to a 2024 Emmy Award nomination for “No Use,” a song he wrote for his “True Detective: Night Country” character in Episode 5. Initially reluctant to write and perform the song...

Two of the best pop culture fixtures of the aughts briefly collided behind the scenes, according to "The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast." In a recent episode of the endlessly delightful Lonely Island retrospective project, host Meyers and "Saturday Night Live" digital short mainstays Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, and Jorma Taccone shared a surprising behind-the-scenes moment from Schaffer's cult favorite comedy "Hot Rod," and it featured none other than prolific "Deadwood" pottymouth Al Swearengen.
In case you haven't rewatched "Hot Rod" lately, it's worth noting that "Deadwood" star Ian McShane plays the bullying stepfather to stuntman Rod (Samberg), and his antagonism is one of the major driving forces of the surreal and silly movie. "Hot Rod" came out in 2007, but it filmed a year earlier, apparently before "Deadwood" had wrapped filming on its third and final season. On that show, McShane put in an awards-worthy performance as the irascible Swearengen,...

The year 2024 has been nerve-wracking for television fans. No shows are safe, and many reigning champs are seeing the end of their careers.
Did any of us really expect to see long-running success shows like Station 19 or Blue Bloods end?
But they are ending as networks try to tighten their production budgets. That means saying goodbye to some of our favorites to make room for the new and improved.
It can be tricky to get attached to a freshman season of any show. You can get attached to the characters, only to find out it was for naught when the season doesn't succeed.
Thankfully, that's not the case with Justin Hartley's new series, Tracker.

We recently learned that a second season of Tracker is in the works.

It wasn't the sort of premise that had "modern masterpiece" written all over it.
In fact, it amounted to a huge gamble for a network that was tentatively seeking to expand its meager slate of original progamming.
Sure, we Americans love our cosa nostra sagas, as evidenced by the perennial popularity of The Godfather, Goodfellas, and their ilk.
But a mob boss who suffers from panic attacks?
A don who's forced to contend with the usual headaches of fatherhood and suburbia?
A protagonist who operates out of a strip club and has no qualms about snuffing out inconvenient colleagues with the old extension cord around the throat?
Sure, the ironic juxtaposition of the two worlds -- the mundane and the murderous, the humdrum and the homicidal -- sounds like a great idea for a 90-minute comedy.

A “9-1-1” crew member who died last month while driving home after a 14-hour work day was killed by a heart attack, and not by drowsy driving, according to an autopsy report.
Rico Priem, 66, was driving home around 4:30 a.m. when his SUV drifted off the 57 freeway, hit a tree, went up an embankment, and flipped over.
His death came amid negotiations between the studios and the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees, and touched on a sensitive issue in those talks. The union has raised concerns that long hours can put workers at risk of falling asleep when they drive home, and has pushed for shorter days and longer rest breaks.
The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s office released the autopsy report to Variety on Tuesday. The report found that Priem died of a “sudden cardiac dysfunction,” and that there were no fatal traumatic injuries.

In a few words, not much. Well, that’s not entirely true, but this movie from The Raid’s Gareth Evans finished shooting way back in the fall of 2021. Havoc seems to have just disappeared once filming wrapped. It looks like the film will finally hit Netflix screens later this year. What took so long?
What’s It About?
The film looks to continue Evans’ run in the crime/action/thriller genre. This time around, a detective gets pulled into a drug deal gone wrong. When he starts investigating, he finds that a politician’s son is involved. While trying to figure out how the whole thing fits together, the detective finds a city-wide corruption scheme. He has to wade through it to ensure the kid gets out okay but keep himself safe from the politicians pulling the strings.

Exclusive: John Hawkes (True Detective: Night Country) has joined the cast of Prime Video‘s graphic novel series, Criminal, in a recurring role. He joins the previously announced cast of Charlie Hunnam, Adria Arjona, Richard Jenkins, Kadeem Hardison, Logan Browning, Pat Healy and Taylor Selé.
Criminal is an interlocking universe of crime stories based on the multi-Eisner Award-winning graphic novel series created by Brubaker and Sean Phillips.
Hawkes has been cast as ‘Sebastian Hyde,’ a hard man who is six months out from a stroke, and now walks with a cane. Once the biggest shark in the shark tank, Hyde is now showing his humanity a bit — maybe a bit too much.

Criminal is an interlocking universe of crime stories based on the multi-Eisner Award-winning graphic novel series created by Brubaker and Sean Phillips.
Hawkes has been cast as ‘Sebastian Hyde,’ a hard man who is six months out from a stroke, and now walks with a cane. Once the biggest shark in the shark tank, Hyde is now showing his humanity a bit — maybe a bit too much. The owner of a gambling club, the kind of man whose name is accompanied by fear, Hyde can be both amused by someone one minute, and a ruthless enforcer the next.

After multiple attempts at kick-starting new trilogies of films have failed, the live-action Terminator film series is, understandably, taking a bit of a break… but the franchise is set to continue with an eight-episode anime series called Terminator Zero, which is coming our way from Japanese animation studio Production Ig and the Netflix streaming service. Terminator Zero is set to start streaming on August 29th – and with that date swiftly approaching, it has been revealed at the Next on Netflix: Animation event in Los Angeles that Timothy Olyphant provides the voice of the Terminator in this series!
Terminator Zero is set in the established Terminator universe but centers on new characters. Mattson Tomlin, who worked on the screenplays for The Batman and its upcoming sequel, is writer and showrunner on this series, which has the following synopsis: 2022: A future war has raged for decades between the few human survivors...

From the second scene of Mortensen’s second feature, “The Dead Don’t Hurt” (following 2020’s excellent father-son drama “Following”), audiences know the fate of Vivienne LeCoudy (Vicky Krieps). A resilient French Canadian pioneer woman left alone for years, Vivienne dies at home in bed, a single tear making tracks on her dusty cheek. For no good reason, Mortensen opts to tell her story out of order, flashing back to Vivienne’s childhood (to show the character-defining disappearance of her fur-trapper father) and carrying on past her death to reveal whether her absentee partner (played by Mortensen) manages to avenge what happened to her.
That nonlinear narrative choice in an otherwise understated art-house Western serves to confuse more than it reveals, complicating things for the meat-and-potatoes crowd that regularly turn out for cowboy stories. Set during the Civil War but made with a mindset more in line with the #MeToo era,...

Fifteen years ago, writer/director Judd Apatow hired documentary filmmaker Chris Wilcha to film a behind-the-scenes movie about the making of “Funny People” and changed Wilcha’s life forever when the documentarian moved from New York to Los Angeles to work on the project. After he was done with the shoot, Wilcha had a hard time finding documentary work and ultimately settled into a life of directing commercials, returning to his first love of non-fiction filmmaking only sporadically as he accumulated hard drive after hard drive of footage from unfinished projects. Apatow was stunned to learn what an effect he had had on Wilcha’s life. “I didn’t even know that he moved to L.A. for the job,” Apatow told IndieWire, “and that his mom has been mad at me for decades.”

When the teaser trailer for "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" debuted last March, our reintroduction to Delia Deetz (Catherine O'Hara) and Lydia Deetz (Winona Ryder) was a somber one. The mother and daughter were standing graveside in a cemetery, mourning an undisclosed character. Fans of the original quickly guessed that the person being committed to the Earth was the family's patriarch, Charles Deetz (Jeffrey Jones), but Tim Burton, in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, refused to confirm this suspicion. "We'll see," was all he said at the time.
Two months later, with the release of the first full theatrical trailer, this minor mystery has been solved thanks to an utterance by Jenna Ortega, who plays Lydia's rebellious teenage daughter Astrid. "I can't believe grandpa's dead." It's Charles' death, then, that serves as the catalyst for the sequel's plot, as confirmed by the following synopsis:

It’s been a few years since Sons of Anarchy creator Kurt Sutter first announced The Abandons, but the Western series has finally started shooting. Netflix announced the start of production of the first season of The Abandons in Calgary, with an official cast photo seen above.
The official logline for The Abandons reads: “As a group of diverse, outlier families pursue their Manifest Destiny in 1850s Oregon, a corrupt force of wealth and power, coveting their land, tries to force them out. These abandoned souls, the kind of lost souls living on the fringe of society, unite their tribes to form a family and fight back. In this bloody process, ‘justice’ is stretched beyond the boundaries of the law. The Abandons will explore that fine line between survival and law, the consequences of violence, and the corrosive power of secrets, as this family fights to keep their land.“
