Fresh off his Academy Award nomination, Jeffrey Wright is returning to HBO for the highly-anticipated Season 2 of “The Last of Us.”
The Oscar-nominated “American Fiction” actor, who previously won an Emmy for “Westworld,” is set to play Isaac in the video game adaptation series. Isaac is billed as a “quietly powerful leader of a large militia group who sought liberty but instead has become mired in an endless war against a surprisingly resourceful enemy.”
Wright also voiced Isaac in “The Last of Us Part II” video game, making his casting a full circle choice for the Emmy-winning series adaptation.
Wright formerly starred in fellow HBO series “Westworld.” Wright was further rumored to have a spinoff series of “The Batman” at Max; the project has since been stalled as “The Penguin” series and “The Batman: Part II” film both move forward.

Back in March, we got the tragic news that 27-year-old Gen V actor Chance Perdomo has passed away after a motorcycle accident.
Perdomo had been a major part of The Boys spin-off series, and his character, Andre Anderson, was going to feature heavily in the planned second season.
Showrunner Eric Kripke and the show's producers recently put out a joint statement confirming that another actor would not be brought in to play Andre, and the season would instead be "re-crafted" to pay tribute to Perdomo.
"As we continue to navigate the tragic loss of Chance Perdomo, everyone at Gen V is determined to find the best way to pay respect to his memory. We won't be recasting the role, because no one can replace Chance. Instead, we have been taking the time and space to re-craft our season 2 storylines as we begin production in May. We will honor Chance and his legacy this season.

Bravo’s Real Housewives franchise is getting an injection of Hollywood executive power.
The cable network said Wednesday that Bozoma Saint John, the former chief marketing officer at Netflix and Endeavor, is joining The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills for its 14th season. Bravo made the announcement in social media posts.

After spending more than a decade of their lives spearheading the phenomenon that was HBO’s “Game of Thrones,” David Benioff and D.B. Weiss weren’t necessarily in a rush to return to the world of adaptation. Neither had taken the quick plunge into Liu Cixin’s Chinese science-fiction epic “The Three-Body Problem” when the proposal of a series was first presented to them, despite it already sitting unread on Weiss’ Kindle. “Barack Obama’s quote was on the cover,” he recalls, “and I said, ‘Well, that’s interesting. Barack Obama likes a Chinese science-fiction novel — let’s get that one.

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for Bridgerton Season 3 Part 1.] If you’re a Bridgerton fan, you’ve more than likely seen Penelope (Nicola Coughlan) and Colin’s (Luke Newton) now-iconic carriage scene, set to the instrumental tune of Pitbull‘s “Give Me Everything,” at least once (or maybe a couple dozen times). And while fans have enjoyed the iteration delivered in the series, showrunner Jess Brownell notes there are big changes compared to the scene fans read in Julia Quinn’s book Romancing Mister Bridgerton. “There’s this carriage moment in the book, [and] it’s the moment that Colin realizes Penelope’s Lady Whistledown and they share an intimate moment,” Brownell notes. “For us, it felt too early in the season for Colin to realize she was Whistledown.” Netflix Still, Brownell and the creative team didn’t want to discard the moment or concept. “We wanted to honor the fact that it’s the first time...

The show of summer 2024 — for some, of the whole year — is almost back. FX’s The Bear returns June 27 with more tense kitchen drama, classic rock, and superb performances, including from Jeremy Allen White, who looks predictably stressed in this first trailer.
Pretty much the whole gang’s featured in this 30-second preview: Sydney (Ayo Edebiri), Richie (Ebon Moss-Bachrach), Marcus (Lionel Boyce), Tina (Liza Colón-Zayas), Sugar (Abby Elliott), and Fak (Matty Matheson).. And they all look like they’re feeling the pressure following the soft opening of The Bear (the restaurant), with Sugar and Richie trying to mollify customers while Sydney expedites and Marcus tries to keep the peace between Carmy and Cousin. When Sydney sighs about their "dysfuncational kitchen," both Richie and Carmy exclaim "Show me a functional one!"...

IATSE has scheduled an additional three days of bargaining in June in which it hopes to wrap up a tentative agreement with the studios.
The union told members Friday that it has reached “consensus” with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers on some issues. But there is still work to do on artificial intelligence, and how best to protect workers whose jobs are displaced by AI.
Under existing agreements, IATSE workers who lose their jobs permanently due to “technological change” are entitled to retraining and severance pay. The new contract is expected to address how that would apply in the case of AI.

When Criminal Minds continued with Evolution two years after the original run ended after 15 seasons, it did so with nearly every actor from the series finale: Joe Mantegna (David Rossi), A.J. Cook (Jennifer “J.J.” Jareau), Kirsten Vangsness (Penelope Garcia), Aisha Tyler (Dr. Tara Lewis), Adam Rodriguez (Luke Alvez), and Paget Brewster (Emily Prentiss). Scheduling didn’t work for Matthew Gray Gubler and Daniel Henney to reprise their roles as Dr. Spencer Reid and Matt Simmons. But will that change in Season 17? There has been at least one sign pointing to a possible return from Gubler: a photo of Spencer Reid’s nameplate on a desk in a photo shared on Mantegna’s Instagram story (see below). So TV Insider turned to showrunner Erica Messer for answers. As it turns out, unfortunately, we will not be seeing Gubler this season. Joe Mantegna/Instagram “It never worked out for Season 16 and...

FX‘s The Bear is keeping the kitchen chaos cooking in the latest Season 3 teaser trailer released by the network. The 40-second preview hints at more tension between “cousins” Carmy (Jeremy Allen White) and Richie (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) as the popularity of the titular restaurant rises. “Feel good?” Carmy asks fellow chef Sydney (Ayo Edebiri) in the opening seconds, and she echoes back, “You feel good?” As Carmy puts it, we’re “going to see.” It’s Richie who steps into the kitchen to announce, “We’re open.” And what ensues is pure calamity, but what else should fans expect from this ragtag team of Chicago-based culinary experts? FX As previously announced, Season 3 of FX’s The Bear will premiere Thursday, June 27 on Hulu with all 10 episodes streaming the same day. Season 3 continues the story of Carmy, Sydney, and Richie as they elevate the restaurant to the highest level, while also...

It makes sense for Disney+ to debut a new feature-length documentary about the Beach Boys — titled The Beach Boys — on Memorial Day weekend. For most of the band’s career, they’ve been associated with the summer. Their first hits, in the early 1960s, were all about sand, surfing, and California car culture. Their 1974 greatest hits collection Endless Summer became a huge success for the Beach Boys at a time when their more experimental albums weren’t selling. In the decades that followed, they leaned into giving casual fans what they wanted, performing their simplest, catchiest, and most sun-splashed songs at big outdoor shows.

Jason Sarlanis knows that for some people, the Investigation Discovery network has stood for one thing: murder mysteries, frequently gruesome in nature and usually told in self-contained hourlong episodes. But with the success of docuseries “Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV,” that perception is quickly changing.
“It has been a fundamental shift for us,” says Sarlanis, who is president of TNT, TBS, TruTV and Hln in addition to ID. “It has brought a spotlight back to all the other things that are outside of the lane of what people expect an ID show to be.”

American Idol might have a new champion in Abi Carter, but Season 21 winner Iam Tongi is not letting fans forget about him as he’s just released two new cover songs. Tongi, who became the first Pacific Islander to win the long-running competition series in 2023, has recorded versions of some of the island hits he grew up listening to in Kahuku, Hawaii, on the island of Oahu. This includes a cover of Kolohe Kai’s “Cool Down” and a rendition of Spawnbreezie’s “Dont Let Go” (which he performed on Idol). “I chose ‘Cool Down’ because we all need to take time to relax with all our family and friends and ‘Don’t Let Go’ because I would love the fans to continue to hold on for the ride,” Tongi said in a statement.

An emotional Céline Dion vows she will “crawl” to shows if she has to in the trailer for her new documentary, I Am: Céline Dion, which will stream on Prime Video from June 25.

Victoria Groce handily defeated self-proclaimed “final boss” James Holzhauer and 2024 Tournament of Champions winner Yogesh Raut to become Jeopardy! Masters champion on Wednesday (May 22) and is now opening up about her experience. The Chase star took to the Jeopardy!

A jaded nation rediscovered its capacity for shock last week when a photo surfaced of Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito flying an upside-down American flag in the days after the January 6 insurrection. That a Scotus judge would strip away all veneer of impartiality concerning an armed attack on the very foundations of American democracy by publicly signaling his support for those storming the Capitol Building to prop up defeated Republican ringleader Donald Trump was enough to make even centrists catch their breath. At least before immediately accepting Alito’s nonsense excuse that his wife did it because the neighbors were mean. But at least that was just a one-time treasonous thing from a guy who joined his right-wing Scotus colleagues in slow-walking a decision...
