The ninth season of Suits will head to Netflix on July 1, the streamer announced Sunday. The final installment of last year’s viral phenomenon was previously only available on Peacock.
The news came as castmembers Patrick J. Adams, Sarah Rafferty, Dulé Hill, Amanda Schull, Abigail Spencer and former USA Network president Jeff Wachtel gathered Sunday for a reunion panel presented by Tudum at the Atx TV Festival in Austin, Texas.
Suits, which originally premiered on USA Network from 2011 to 2019, followed Mike Ross (Adams), a college dropout with a photographic memory who is hired at a New York law firm by Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht). The show’s first eight seasons debuted on Netflix last year to great success — by the end of 2023, it was the most streamed show of the year.
Following the newfound success of the series, NBC ordered a pilot for spinoff show Suits: L.A. earlier this year.

Almost a full century after the end of World War II, new stories about the quiet heroism of everyday individuals continue to come to light. Now Tyler Perry is tackling the war with his new film The Six Triple Eight, the story of the war’s only Women’s Army Corps unit of color. Perry writes and directs in his fifth project, starring Kerry Washington, for Netflix.

Time to bust out the tweed and flat caps — Peaky Blinders is coming back. Cillian Murphy will reprise his role as Birmingham gangster Tommy Shelby in a new movie coming to Netflix, made in association with BBC film.
"It seems like Tommy Shelby wasn’t finished with me,” Murphy told Netflix. “It is very gratifying to be recollaborating with Steven Knight and Tom Harper on the film version of Peaky Blinders. This is one for the fans.”
The film, which goes into production later this year, will be an epic continuation of the multi-award-winning, six-season gangster saga. Set in Birmingham between 1919 and 1934, Peaky Blinders followed the rise (and sometimes fall) of the Shelby family as they navigated a world wracked with radical social, economic, and political change.
Harper, who directed episodes of the show’s first season in 2013, will direct the new film from a script by Peaky...

What is mankind without science? The thought-provoking question is one of the themes in “3 Body Problem,” an eight-episode Netflix series from “Game of Thrones” creators D.B. Weiss and David Benioff and “True Blood” scribe Alexander Woo. Adapted from author Cixin Liu’s “Remembrance of Earth’s Past” trilogy, the material follows a group of scientists who attempt to save humanity from a technologically advanced alien race known as the San-Ti. What it meant for the creative team was developing a distinct visual aesthetic capable of reaching the far ends of the galaxy, yet one delicate enough to support the emotional dilemmas each character faced.
“I remember when the guys first wrote to me about this series, and they promised, I quote, ‘A journey from China during the darkest hours of the cultural revolution all the way to the farthest fringes of the universe, both in time and space.’ And I thought,...

Overnights: Jon Stewart’s Daily Show Draws Largest Live-Plus-Same-Day Audience In More Than 2 Months
Jon Stewart and most of his late-night counterparts returned to the airwaves last night after a week off. Daily Show viewers were apparently quite eager to hear Stewart’s reaction to the Trump hush money trial guilty verdict, because last night’s episode attracted the show’s largest live-plus-same-day audience in more than two months.
Per Nielsen live-plus-same-day data, the June 3 Daily Show averaged 787,000 total viewers with 147,000 P18-49 viewers at 11 p.m. The 787,000 is +13% from Stewart’s most recent Daily Show episode, and represents the program’s largest live-plus-same-day audience since Monday, March 25. The June 3 episode’s 147,000 P18-49 viewer delivery, however, is -3% from its May 20 episode live-plus-same-day delivery.
It’s also worth keeping in mind that last night’s Daily Show will see a significant linear viewership bump once delayed-viewing data arrives in the coming days.

The Dunphys and the Pritchetts need to spill the beans! After some very cryptic teases about a possible Modern Family reboot, Jesse Tyler Ferguson is responding to all the speculation. During his appearance during the June 4 episode of The Talk, Ferguson was asked about his Instagram Story post where he shared a photo from the Modern Family set, specifically Phil (Ty Burrell) and Claire’s (Julie Bowen) home. “That was on the set, and yes, we’re doing a sequel. I’m just kidding,” he said. He added, “It’s something I can’t really talk about. Isn’t that annoying? I know. I was on the set with some of my cast mates. It’s not a reboot… Is it a movie? I don’t know.” The actor, who starred as Mitchell Pritchett in the ABC sitcom, acknowledged that he “probably shouldn’t have posted it because then I...

More than a decade after the last bit of blood was spilled on the Hostel movie franchise, the story is now moving to television. The Hollywood Reporter reveals that Eli Roth, Chris Biggs, and Mike Fleiss are all returning to the land of masked torturers for another round — this time on the small screen and with Paul Giamatti in tow. Here’s a look at everything we know so far about the Hostel show. What will the Hostel TV show be about? According to THR, the project is being billed as a “modern adaptation” of the story as well as an “elevated thriller” and “reinvention” of the franchise. For the uninitiated, Hostel‘s three films centered on a group of tourists who are kidnapped, sold, and tortured by wealthy Europeans who paid handsome sums to viciously attack them in dark cave chambers. The first film hit theaters in 2005 and was...

Seven years after the release of “Creep 2,” Mark Duplass is ready to return to his dryly comedic found footage horror franchise.
The multi-hyphenate has announced that he completed production on “The Creep Tapes,” an episodic series that promises to introduce horror fans to a new collection of victims from the vault of Duplass’ nameless killer. The series, co-created by Duplass and “Creep” director Patrick Brice (who also directed every episode), is currently being shopped to buyers.
The first “Creep” film released in 2014 at the tail end of the found footage horror renaissance launched by “Paranormal Activity” in 2007. It starred Duplass as a killer who hired a filmmaker to document his actions for a day as a ploy to lure him into a dark trap. 2017’s “Creep 2” used a similar formula, with Duplass’ character taking a different name and working with a different filmmaker.

Tommy Shelby, Netflix's most unflinching man with a plan, will be back to shake things up in England. Deadline reports that, after much whispering and speculation, the streaming giant has officially greenlit a Peaky Blinders movie to cap off Steven Knight's thrilling historical crime drama.
What's that? You're pretty sure you'd already heard that this movie, which will see newly minted Oscar winner Cillian Murphy reprise his role as Tommy, was going into production? Well, sure, but that's hardly a guarantee anymore, now that the streaming business involves shelving completed movies for tax writeoffs. There's no way Netflix will back out now [insert nervous laughter].

The best Star Wars projects in recent years are the ones that stray from the original story.
From “Rogue One” to “The Last Jedi” to the animated “Visions” and last year’s “Andor,” the franchise finds its footing by taking risks and focusing on original stories that just happen to be set in a galaxy far, far away. With the middling quality of so many other Star Wars offshoots since Disney+ launched in 2019, Leslye Headland’s “The Acolyte” finds company, mercifully, in the former category, with an intriguing crime thriller set further back than any other live-action entry.
“The Acolyte” takes place even longer ago in the galaxy’s history, during the High Republic Era that preceded even young Anakin Skywalker in “The Phantom Menace.” It’s a time of peace, as the opening text says, but like all peaceful pockets in Star Wars, that gets interrupted. A violent crime...

Drew Basile is returning to reality competition television, this time testing his wits on the game show Jeopardy!. The episode in which he appears is set to air Wednesday, June 19. The Survivor 45 contestant made the announcement in an Instagram post on Tuesday, June 4. Basile most recently competed as one of 18 contestants on CBS’ Survivor Season 45, placing sixth overall. A college graduate from the University of Pennsylvania where he studied English and Philosophy, the 23-year-old was (perhaps fittingly) named the season’s “know-it-all.” Praised as a strong strategist, he often had a handle on the majority vote, until he was voted out after a shocking switch by one of his fellow contestants. Basile even identified himself as a “nerd” throughout the season. Basile, believed to be the first to appear on both competition shows, is currently pursuing his masters in English Literature at the University of Oxford in England. In January this year,...

Initially reported by TMZ, the actor called 911 around 6:20 p.m. to report a suspicious man who was going around banging on doors and talking to himself around the neighborhood. After getting off the phone with the police, Tucker went outside to find the man was no longer visible but his neighbor’s front door was wide open. Upon seeing the open door, the 42-year-old went to check on the family and saw his neighbor and her children to safety. The mother and her two kids were unaware the intruder had even entered their home. With one of the children in his arms, Tucker walked the family out farther away from the house until the police arrived moments later. After the break-in, the intruder fled the scene, but...

Ahead, “Fellow Travelers” star Jonathan Bailey writes about the many qualities that earmarked the collaboration between our Wavelength Award winners, showrunner Ron Nyswaner and star and executive producer Matt Bomer.
When it comes to celebrating the collaboration of Ron Nyswaner and Matt Bomer, I have to acknowledge how both of them influenced me long before I came onto “Fellow Travelers.” Their work on both sides of the camera has permeated in the same way.

Ron Nyswaner and Matt Bomer can’t quite agree about their first meeting. “Look at how we collaborate,” Bomer said with a laugh over a Zoom call with Nyswaner and IndieWire.
In fact, the retelling of their initial meeting is their “Fellow Travelers” partnership in microcosm. Both Nyswaner (who created the show) and Bomer (its star and executive producer) are able to quickly step in when the course needs correcting, and both are comfortable enough with one another not to let ego interfere.

This fall will bring a monumental moment for Saturday Night Live when the legendary sketch comedy series kicks off its 50th season, with a special 50th anniversary episode airing in February. While expectations will be high for the cast to bring the funny, the hair and makeup team are already worrying about ways to top themselves.
In a new interview with The Ankler, makeup department head Louie Zakarian and hairstylist Jodi Mancuso admitted that they’re looking toward the anniversary special with a small amount of abject terror.
“I am so scared,” said Mancuso when asked about the three-hour special, which will air in primetime on February 16, 2025. “I am going to sleep from now until February. I’m actually fully panicked about it.”
While eight months might seem like forever, Mancuso says that there’s already been a lot of conversations about what the episode might look like.

‘Clipped’ Review: FX’s American Basketball Story Is a Salacious, Shrewd Account of NBA Racial Strife
Initially, “Clipped” seems content to recap the embarrassing and abhorrent factoids that make up Donald Sterling’s tenure as the owner of the L.A. Clippers. When legendary coach Doc Rivers (played by Laurence Fishburne) initially arrives in Los Angeles — eager to start laying the foundation for the organization’s first NBA title — the team forgets to pick him up from Lax. Ok, no problem, he’s happy to order his own Uber. But then Sterling tries to block Doc’s big free agent acquisition because J.J. Reddick, it turns out, is white. Similarly troubling and peculiar events pile up as the story bounces from the shrewd coach to Donald’s wife and co-owner of the Clippers, Shelly Sterling (Jacki Weaver), to a perplexing female employee who goes simply by V. (Cleopatra Coleman).
But like V. herself — and, really, like each of “Clipped’s” main characters outside of the purposefully oafish,...

Long-term streaming subscribers know that price hikes are nothing new, but keeping up with the best deals on the market has proven more and more difficult as household subscriptions rates are adding up to about $70 a month – roughly the same as a traditional cable package. Take Netflix, the O.G. popularized streaming subscription, which started at $9 a month. After an array of DVD rental prices plus streamer deals over the years ranging from $8 to $16, Netflix finally landed at $10/month in 2016 and has consistently raised deals by $1 or $2 every year since. In 2023, Netflix now offers its standard package at $15.49/month, not even including the levels of Basic plans, Premium plans, and ad-free packages. No wonder it’s so hard to keep up (or to remember to cancel!). Now Max and Spotify have raised their prices – Spotify has upped their rates twice in one year. In order to help you get the best price possible,...

It’s 1996 and summer again, which means more drama for a group of friends, comedic moments, and fun blasts from the past. That ’90s Show returns for Part 2 on Thursday, June 27 and Part 3 on Thursday, October 24, and Netflix has released the official trailer for the former.

HBO Documentary’s new three-part series does not look, feel, or sound like any docuseries you’ve seen. Set against the backdrop of one of the world’s largest Renaissance fairs in Todd Mission, Texas, “Ren Faire” director Lance Oppenheim blends verite filmmaking with fantasy in capturing a cast of characters who are playing out a real-life succession drama.
At the center is King George Coulum, the 86-year old visionary who built the festival and ruled his fiefdom with an iron-fist as it exploded into a multi-million dollar business and (a la Disneyland) became its own town, for which Coulum is both the mayor and primary employer. In Episode 1, the King indicates he is finally ready to step aside, as he hits various online dating sites (including sugardaddy.com) looking for a pretty young woman to be his companion in his final years, which he envisions being filled with sex,...

It was only a couple of years ago that Tuesdays with the Pearson family ended, and thankfully it wasn’t for good as This Is Us stars Mandy Moore, Chris Sullivan, and Sterling K. Brown revisit the series with their recently-launched rewatch podcast, That Was Us. Debuting in 2016, the Dan Fogelman-created series struck a chord with audiences right away and managed to tug at their heartstrings for six seasons until the finale in 2022. But what sparked the desire to revisit the Pearsons and their time-hopping history now? “I think the idea had been swirling in all of our heads,” Sullivan tells TV Insider. As fans will recall, he played the lovable Toby Damon who was introduced as Kate Pearson’s (Chrissy Metz) boyfriend at the start of the series. “I think it kind of just comes down to the fact that everyone who worked on this show has a...

On Tuesday, the Emmy-winning Seinfeld star made the talk show rounds to promote his book, which hit shelves the same day, on The Today Show and The View, and he revisited the incident that largely ended his TV career. And according to Richards, he wasn’t canceled by anyone other than himself. In 2006, Richards was performing at the Laugh Factory and was heckled by a Black audience member. In response, he reportedly shouted the “n-word” in describing the man. Witnesses said he also verbally assailed other members of the crowd with racially insensitive language. After that, Richards explained to Today host Hota Kotb, he decided to bow out of show business. “Anger had a hold of me. I canceled myself out,...

They’ll meet with owners and assess the properties to decide who to back with all their resources and network of designers, trade contacts, and a warehouse full of construction materials.
