With the Paramount+ prequel series “Dexter: Original Sin” going back in time to explore the formative experiences of 20-year-old avenging serial killer (Patrick Gibson), there’s a hope that it will help turn back the clock for the production community in Miami, which serves as the setting for both it and the original show, “Dexter” (2006-2013). Like its predecessor, “Dexter: Original Sin” does the bulk of its shooting in Los Angeles and Long Beach, but it’s still a good advertisement for what Miami has to offer producers.

“We wanted to get the full impact of the beauty and the texture and the architecture, the water and the atmosphere that is specific in Miami,” says Danielle Blumstein, co-head of production for Counterpart Studios, which produces the series with Showtime Studios. “We looked for locations that would help ground us and kind of celebrate that city.”

Quick Links Who Is Jeffrey Dean Morgan, and What Is He Known For? Why Jeffrey Dean Morgan Almost Quit Acting Because of Star Trek

For six decades, the universe created by Gene Roddenberry has returned to television twice, as well as the feature film world. For many actors, an association with the USS Enterprise or the final frontier is somewhere between a dream come true to an opportunity for a bigger career. For actor Jeffrey Dean Morgan, however, his appearance on Star Trek: Enterprise almost made him quit acting.

As the final series in the second wave, Star Trek: Enterprise was a prequel to Star Trek: The Original Series. While some actors, like Starfleet Academy's Paul Giamatti look forward to playing aliens, others do not. In 2003, Jeffrey Dean Morgan was a working actor whose star was still on the rise, and he was cast as an alien antagonist. Morgan almost quit acting after that,...

Its perhaps too early to say, but Tulsa King appears to be flowing through the same rivulet as Breaking Bad regarding critical and fan reception. The first season was good, but it didnt cause anyone to cancel a date. Season 2, on the other hand, has been excellent so far and currently boasts a flawless 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes.

This is hardly surprising, considering that the show has a wide variety of ingredients that make it tasty. It is produced by the great Taylor Sheridan and written by Terence Winter, who, throughout his long career, has been a magnificently sensitive observer of gangster dynamics. Besides that, the Season 2 cast has names like Frank Grillo and Neal McDonough, who all deliver vivid, well-rounded performances.

Camila Cabello is bringing the Miami beach to the VMAs stage. The C, Xoxo pop star hit the stage at the 2024 Video Music Awards to perform an emotional, cathartic medley of her Magic City songs “June Gloom” and “Godspeed.”

Cabello’s performance started with a video of the singer—with bright blonde hair—singing “June Gloom before Cabello, in real life, this time with her brown hair, approached a laptop and shut the performance off to sing her new single “Godspeed” live.

“We’re living in a ghost world / We’re living in...

Camila Cabello isn’t ready to say goodbye to the C, Xoxo era just yet, although the lyrics to her new song are aimed at someone she’d rather leave behind. On Friday, the pop star announced that she’ll expand C, Xoxo with its “Magic City” edition, and drop single “Godspeed,” on Sept. 6.

“I wish you well, but far away from me,” she captioned a video post announcing the upcoming track. The moody clip sees the singer inside a dark pool at night while wearing a sparkly silver dress.

Some of the best crime TV shows were canceled early, leaving fans frustrated with the lack of character and story development. Titles like Prodigal Son, The Enemy Within, Limitless, Jett, and Magic City had potential but fell short due to network issues or audience ratings. Critically acclaimed performances, dynamic relationships, and compelling storylines were cut short, leaving viewers disappointed with the abrupt endings.

Unfortunately, multiple crime TV shows were canceled far too soon. Some of the best TV shows of all time were included in the crime genre and were remembered for engaging viewers in stories about the dark underbelly of the criminal world, the law enforcement officers who strove to bring them to justice, and the loved ones who were dragged into the chaos. The best crime procedural TV shows typically ran for several seasons, but some titles werent lucky enough to achieve the same stretch. Despite being cut short,...

Previous | Image 1 of 5 | NextKiller Mike and ‘Magic City’ creator Cole Brown (right).

Austin, TX – The Red Carpet traditions at SXSW take on a different intensity, and the cast and production crew of “Magic City: An American Fantasy” walked the walk on March 12th, 2024. The documentary series is about a famous strip club in Atlanta that became a hangout for celebrities. One of the narrators in the doc is Atlanta’s own Killer Mike, and he was there.

In 1985, phone salesman Michael Barney — friends call him Mr. Magic — puts his slick-talking gift to work, opening a small strip club in Atlanta. He plays DJ, bartender, and bouncer while his only dancer separates men from their money. But soon, the celebrities arrive. Athletes from Michael Jordan to Shaquille O’Neal clamber to the club, DC The Brain Supreme mints an iconic hit record from the DJ booth, and Outkast tests songs by watching the girls dance.

New Drake-produced doscuseries “Magic City: An American Fantasy” debuted at SXSW Monday night to a roaring crowd packed with friends, patrons and fans of the project’s titular iconic Atlanta strip club, Magic City.

After the first episode of the three-part doc, which does not yet have a distributor or platform attached, was screened, producer Cole Brown and director Charles Todd fielded a few questions from the audience, including “Was there anything too explicit to put in the documentary?”

“We wanted to walk a fine line with nudity, in particular — where you can’t make a documentary about a strip club and not have any nudity, it just isn’t true to form — and you’re trying to tell the true story,” Brown said. “At the same time, we didn’t want it to be salacious, gratuitous. We wanted to use it in such a way that you’re...

Netflix has a lot of content on its virtual shelves, but it’s missing something so huge that it’s almost shocking.

They have no original medical drama for their subscribers.

Justina Machado is the first person to join the cast as a series regular.

Whether Pulse falls more in line with what we know as procedural content or not remains to be seen.

Waters, however, soon found his true passion in the entertainment industry.

Earlier this year, The Vampire Diaries left its longtime home on Netflix and is now currently available to stream on Peacock. Although the NBC streaming service is still relatively new to the game, getting that series was a big move as it is one of the most iconic shows of the 2010s.

While those huge shows from the era are easy to pick out like Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Bates Motel, Peacock also offers up some great hidden gems. Those are the series from the decade that weren't watched all that much or were forgotten about but deserve more shine.

Everyone in that tower thought the situation was temporary. That was in 1971. Fifty years have passed, and Vázquez has kept himself occupied, amassing over 60 combined roles in movies, television and theater.

It centers on Samantha Bonti, who is fifteen years old, half Jewish and half Italian, and hesitantly edging toward pure Brooklyn, even if her dreams of something more are bigger than the neighborhood girls’ teased hair. Samantha lives in Bensonhurst with her mother, Joan, a woman abandoned and scarred in a ruinous marriage, poisoned with cynicism, and shackled by addictions,...

Exclusive: Steven Strait (The Expanse) has been cast in Five Below, a high concept sci-fi thriller to be directed by Mike Le Han.

While the film’s plot is being kept under wraps, it is said to be a new take on the meta-human sci-fi genre. Penned by Nick Brown, it will be the first in a franchise of low-budget, high-concept science-fiction films made by Le Han’s newly formed outfit, RedOne Studios. Liam Finn and Le Han are producing, with production scheduled for early summer. A sequel to Five Below is already in development.

Strait is perhaps best known for his turn as James Holden—captain of the Rocinante frigate—on sci-fi series The Expanse, which is now streaming on Prime Video. Currently filming the final season of that series, the actor has also appeared in Raymond De Felitta...

The storied Atlanta strip club Magic City became a battleground last Thursday as trap progenitors Jeezy and Gucci Mane rekindled, then seemingly squashed, their 15-year-long beef in front of nearly 2 million people on Verzuz, the wildly popular music-battle livestream started by Timbaland and Swizz Beats. With no one sure what to expect from the pairing, the episode won the show’s biggest audience to date.

The Gucci and Jeezy beef is layered. (Check out this timeline for more on that.) It started with the 2005 breakout collaboration “So Icy,” which led...

When an actor is accused of wrongdoing and the film or TV project is already under way — or even wrapped — sometimes directors and producers go back and reshoot their scenes with a recast replacement.

“All the Money in the World”

After Kevin Spacey was accused of sexual misconduct, director Ridley Scott went back into production on “All the Money in the World” and reshot all of the actor’s scenes, this time with Christopher Plummer playing billionaire J. Paul Getty. (Plummer received an Oscar nomination for the role.)

“Ordeal by Innocence”

BBC had already shot a new adaptation of the Agatha Christie classic with “Gossip Girl” alum Ed Westwick as the rough-around-the-edges son of a wealthy family. But after Westwick faced accusations of sexual misconduct, the network went back and re-shot the limited series with “Magic City” alum Christian Cooke recast in the role.

“Wonder Park”

Ken Hudson Campbell (“Armageddon...

Two new faces are entering the courtroom drama on All Rise: The CBS series has tapped Samantha Marie Ware (Glee) to recur during Season 2 as Judge Lola Carmichael’s new law clerk Vanessa “Ness” Johnson, TVLine has learned exclusively. Additionally, Shalim Ortiz (Grand Hotel) will recur as Joaquin Luna, a young photographer and political activist who crosses paths with public defender Emily Lopez.

Fresh out of Harvard Law, Ness is described as “whip-smart, bold and sometimes, hilariously in-your-face,” with an “unapologetic and unfiltered approach to work and life.” That attitude will create conflict with her boss Lola and especially...

Mercedes (Brandee Evans) is the undisputed queen of the Pynk, the Mississippi Delta strip club that provides the setting for Starz’s electric new drama P-Valley. She gets the most prominent showcases every night, pulls in the biggest tips, and invites the most admiration and/or envy from the other entertainers. But she also knows that no stripper’s reign is a long one, and has already begun plotting an exit strategy: She will open up a gym to teach local girls how to dance. A realtor, skeptical of her business model,...

Starz is offering free streaming to non-members for the rest of March. The network will allow people to stream select titles from their library as everybody attempts to stay indoors. The coronavirus is continuing to spread throughout the world, which has found some people in mandatory quarantine. While most of North America has not gotten to that point, it could happen, which means there's going to be even more streaming going on in the next few weeks.

Starz is allowing non-subscribers to stream the first full seasons of Black Sails and Vida, along with the pilots of a number of their original shows. At this time, the free deal will last until the end of March, though it could very well be extended and even add in more titles at the same time. As of this writing, America To Me, American Gods, Wrong Man, Magic City, Party Down, Ash vs Evil Dead,...
