It comes as no surprise that many classic TV shows and movies are making a comeback these days. While many people are still on the fence about remakes and revivals, as they tend to be worse than the originals, there are some gems that become fan favorites in no time. The second installment of The Night Manager could be another addition to that list.
Back in 2016, the show blew everyone away with its sharp writing and fast pacing. However, the 6-episode effort ended after one season and wasn't picked up to return. That was until the 2024 news of a comeback with another two seasons. And the second season already seems to be as great as anything we have seen before.

Apple TV’s flagship series “The Morning Show” returned last fall with its third season and with it comes the show’s best cast to date. Nicole Beharie, Jon Hamm, Tig Notaro, and Stephen Fry all joined the cast while mainstays Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, and Billy Crudup all turned in their best work yet.
However, it’s the show’s supporting players, who have been here since day one, that makes the series so good. Karen Pittman is a prime example of that. The series depicts the behind-the-scenes drama of a US morning TV show and Pittman plays Mia Jordan, a key producer of said show. Pittman has always been an actress who possesses a powerful screen presence and that is true here, too. She captivates audiences (and the other actors) but also smartly sews vulnerability into a character who has some power in the show.

It’s two weeks after Elizabeth Debicki attended the Met Gala. She’s now in Los Angeles for Emmy campaigning for her work as Princess Diana on “The Crown.”
I meet her Netflix’s FYC pop-up in Hollywood for quick chat before she takes part in a panel discussion with “The Crown” creator Peter Morgan. We grab a couple of seats in the “Ripley” room. “I’m bummed I couldn’t be in it,” Debicki says of the streamer’s adaptation of the Patricia Highsmith’s 1955 crime novel, “The Talented Mr. Ripley.” “Not that anyone asked.”
But then she suddenly remembers the Met Gala. “I sat in between Jude Law and Matt Damon,” Debicki says. “At that point, one margarita in, I thought, “Oh, my God. I’m in a Ripley sandwich.”
She did not, however, share her thought with the original “Ripley” actors.

The many artists who meticulously dedicate themselves to the making of a project of entertainment and serve more or less a worldwide audience, form the backbone of Hollywood. The industry has long realized the need to honor such artists for their merits and performances and hence, the existence of numerous prestigious award ceremonies such as the Oscars, the Golden Globes, and the Emmys, among others.

The line-up for the new series of Variety’s Actors On Actors has been revealed, with high profile movie performers interviewing each other.
Variety’s Actors On Actors is one of the most delightful series you can watch as a film fan. The central conceit is that two actors sit down for a natter about their work, often going off on tangents, acting as a unique insight into the industry.
Generally, the pairings are quite surprising, with the actors concerned often never having worked together and, in some cases, seeming quite random, but each one is fascinating and, usually, an absolute hoot. You can see Kate Winslet shooting the breeze with Gary Oldman, for example, or Beanie Feldstein with Florence Pugh – we are still waiting for Jason Statham to make an appearence.

Details on Morrone’s character have not yet been revealed.

Welcome to Emmy Experts Typing, a weekly column in which Gold Derby editors and Experts Joyce Eng and Christopher Rosen discuss the Emmy race — via Slack, of course. This week, we reassess drama, now with “Shōgun.”
Christopher Rosen: Hello, Joyce! It’s Friday and we went from having no clear frontrunner in the Best Drama Series category to what seems like a runway favorite. Last week, FX finally announced “Shōgun” will compete as a drama series as two additional seasons are being planned for… sometime in the future. Good for Justin Marks and Rachel Kondo and producer and star Hiroyuki Sanada. Not only will they get paid for spearheading the year’s one real breakout show not named “Baby Reindeer,” but they’re also more likely than ever to win Emmys for their work. Or maybe they were always going to win. Regardless! It didn’t take me long to...

Fresh from his appearance in mega-buzzy Cannes competition entry ‘The Substance,’ Dennis Quaid is now set to join Zazie Beetz and Elizabeth Debicki in another wild-sounding project, “This Blue is Mine.”
First announced by Variety ahead of the festival and being launched in the market by HanWay and UTA, “This Blue is Mine” is described as an “original, sexy sci-fi drama,” and marks the English-language debut of Brazilian-born director Iuli Gerbase.
The story is set amidst a family holiday at a tropical resort, where Arthur (Quaid), a guilt-free bon viveur, surprises everyone by bringing his new beautiful and enigmatic girlfriend, Ivy (Debicki). Ivy’s arrival and her odd behavior throws the already delicate dynamics off balance with Arthur and his daughters. Connie (Beetz) is still recovering from the trauma of a recent miscarriage and her older half-sister Laura can be a bit suffocating in her efforts to support her. One evening,...

With second and third seasons of “Shōgun” in development, the FX series must compete in drama now instead of limited at the Emmys. The acclaimed epic definitely fortifies the previously weak drama field and became an automatic frontrunner (it’s still in second in the odds behind “The Crown”). How many statuettes can and will it win in drama? Can supporting favorites Elizabeth Debicki (“The Crown”) and Billy Crudup (“The Morning Show”) hold off “Shōgun” fan faves Moeka Hoshi and Tadanobu Asano?

“The Crown” can only play a pair of Queens at the Emmys.
Emmy winner Olivia Colman, who portrayed Queen Elizabeth in the series finale episode of Netflix’s monarchy drama, is not eligible to submit in the guest drama actress race by only a few seconds. However, her co-star Claire Foy, who also portrays Her Majesty in her younger years and appears in the same episode, is eligible and will be the sole guest submission for the series, angling for her second win in the category.
The “Sleep, Dearie Sleep,” written by Peter Morgan and directed by Stephen Daldry, clocks in at a robust 72 minutes, the longest of any episode across its six seasons. In the series’ final moments, Imelda Staunton’s Elizabeth looks back on the highs and lows of her reign as she grapples with the idea of handing the crown to Charles. Her younger self appears to...

If you’re not caught up on your peak TV viewing, consider this your spoiler warning. Four months have passed since Jennifer Coolidge bagged her second consecutive Emmy for “The White Lotus” and thus became the eighth drama or comedy series regular honored by the TV academy for a season in which her character died. Emmy nominations of this kind have become quite common in recent years, and it’s possible that over 15% of the 2024 lead and supporting continuing series contenders will be added to the list.
The current consensus among more than 2,400 Gold Derby users is that five continuing series performers whose characters perished within the past year will receive Emmy nominations, while a few others have outside shots at recognition. This does not include characters like Anakin Skywalker who died before their shows’ latest seasons began but appear as ghosts or in flashbacks. Undead characters like most of...

Production on MaXXXine, the sequel to director Ti West‘s films Pearl (watch it Here) and X (watch that one at This Link), wrapped way back in May of 2023, and just last month we heard that it has earned an R rating for strong violence, gore, sexual content, graphic nudity, language and drug use as it heads toward its July 5th theatrical release date. With that date swiftly approaching, a poster for MaXXXine has arrived online, sporting the warning that “Hollywood is a killer.” You can check it out at the bottom of this article.
MaXXXine is written and directed by West. Mia Goth reprises the role of X survivor Maxine Minx, a burlesque performer and adult film actress with the goal of being a star. The film has the following synopsis: In 1980s Hollywood, adult film star and aspiring actress Maxine Minx finally gets her big break. But as...

Outbreak Park: "Lethal Comics and Holy Crow Press present Outbreak Park! The Walking Dead meets Jurassic Park! Writer Allan Amato and artist Andy Belanger bring you their startling vision of a post-post apocalyptic world. Humanity exists in vastly smaller numbers, within fortified enclaves mirroring the early city-states of ancient Greece. While a vaccine inoculating humans against a bite has been created, most of the planet is still subject to roving herds of undead. And equally frightening anarchist wellness Men’s groups..
In New Alhambra, Outbreak Park is built to further research into the undead phenomenon, using docile zombies as teaching tools for the children growing up in the new republic. Lest the near extinction of humanity ever be forgotten, and repeated.

Ti West is channeling Paul Schrader for his trilogy ender “MaXXXine.” Oh, and “The Terminator.”
Writer/director West told Total Film that the 1985 Hollywood-set horror film is just as “hardcore” as Schrader’s filmography, with high concept tie-ins of “The Terminator” and “Vice Squad.” Plus, of course, what “X” film is complete without a hint of giallo?
“It’s poppy, but still grounded in more of a grittier ’80s than a shopping-mall ’80s,” West described his film. “You’re seeing the glamorous side of the movie business and the seedy side of Hollywood.”
West said “MaXXXine” has “a ‘Terminator’-like aesthetic to a Paul Schrader hardcore thing to ‘Vice Squad’ to giallo,” all mixed together.
“MaXXXine” is one of IndieWire’s most anticipated films of 2024, with Mia Goth reprising the role of adult-film star and aspiring actress Maxine Minx for the latest franchise installment. Goth previously played Maxine in “X...

Friday night at the Fysee space in Hollywood, Netflix hosted the last-ever industry panel with the cast and crew of “The Crown.” The regal drama series aired its final season in November and December, and it has already competed at kudos like the Golden Globes, Critics Choice and Screen Actors Guild Awards. Now, the upcoming 2024 Emmys will be its last hurrah on the awards circuit. Taking part in the combined in-person and virtual discussion for Season 6 were cast members Imelda Staunton (Queen Elizabeth II), Elizabeth Debicki (Princess Diana), Lesley Manville (Princess Margaret) and Khalid Abdalla (Dodi Fayed), plus executive producer/writer Peter Morgan, casting director Robert Sterne, set decorator Alison Harvey, composer Martin Phipps, hair & makeup designer Cate Hall, and costume designers Amy Roberts & Sidonie Robertsas.
Morgan began the discussion by addressing the fact that Season 6, unlike the prior cycles, took place within recent memory. “Obviously, you’re more mindful...

Season 5 of The Crownends on a bittersweet note. Directed by Alex Gabassi, Episode 10, aptly titled “Decommissioned,” caps a season that sees the British public grappling with the continued relevance of the monarchy.
The finale kicks off with Princess Diana (Elizabeth Debicki) watching a TV special asking viewers to vote on the question: “Do you want a monarchy?” Though it turns out the majority of respondents appear to lean toward “yes,” the very fact that the question is being asked at all marks a shift in the relationship between the royal family and the British people.
“From the beginning [of the season], we start with the concept of relevancy, specifically through the relevancy of the queen,” executive producer and director Jessica Hobbs tells Tudum. “By the end of the season, we are questioning the relevancy of the institution itself. That is really the arc.”

Princess Diana’s fate in The Crown Season 6, Part 1 is no surprise, but the events leading up to her death still remain a mystery. Reprising her role in the final season of Peter Morgan’s groundbreaking series, Elizabeth Debicki’s portrayal explores the final weeks of the late Princess of Wales’ life. Since the character’s introduction in Season 4, then played by Emma Corrin, Diana’s life has been far from a fairy tale. Although her story ends in tragedy, the first four episodes of Season 6 tell of her whirlwind romance with Dodi Fayed (Khalid Abdalla), a film producer and the son of businessman Mohamed al-Fayed (Salim Daw).
“It’s a really unique challenge as an actor to portray those days because we know where the story is going,” Debicki says in the featurette above. Adds Abdalla, “It’s not about knowing the ending. You know the ending. It’s...

As the world collectively mourns Princess Diana (Elizabeth Debicki) in The CrownSeason 6, Part 1, a father sits alone in his grief. “There’s no mention of you anywhere, as if only one person died,” Mohamed al-Fayed (Salim Daw) says to a vision of his dead son Dodi (Khalid Abdalla) in Episode 4 of Season 6.
The groundbreaking series has always relied on historical research to tell the story of the British royal family, but creator and showrunner Peter Morgan deviates from reality by including scenes of Diana and Dodi posthumously appearing to their loved ones. While Diana shares a conversation with a grief-stricken Prince Charles (Dominic West) and Queen Elizabeth (Imelda Staunton), Dodi and his father, Mohamed, have a long-overdue heart-to-heart.
“When people die, there is a certain energy of them that remains very close — and there are ways in which they speak,” Abdalla tells Tudum about the scenes.

Awards season may well be over for another year in the world of film, with the Oscars, BAFTAs, and Golden Globes just a distant memory now. But on Sunday evening, one of the biggest nights in British TV, the BAFTA TV Awards — this year hosted by comedians Rob Beckett and Ramesh Ranganathan — took place at London’s Royal Festival Hall. And on a night where the two most nominated shows, Black Mirror and The Crown, failed to snag a single win, Happy Valley, Top Boy, and The Sixth Commandment enjoyed great success in key categories, each taking home two awards apiece.
On the night, Sarah Lancashire won Leading Actress for her all-timer of a turn as police sergeant Catherine Cawood in Happy Valley, her second BAFTA for the same role. The show also snagged the public-voted Memorable Moment award for Catherine and Tommy Lee Royce’s (James Norton) remarkable final kitchen showdown.

Updated with complete winners list: Despite being up for four acting category awards, The Crown‘s final season left the BAFTA TV Awards empty handed tonight in London.
Elizabeth Debicki, Lesley Manville, Salim Daw and Dominic West were all snubbed, as the the likes of Matthew Macfadyen, Jasmine Jobson, Timothy Spall and Sarah Lancashire all triumphed and the Netflix show went out quietly.
There was also a major surprise in the International category, where little-known French drama Class Act beat the likes of Beef, The Bear and The Last of Us to win the prize. Among the most shocked was the show’s star Laurent Lafitte, who urged the audience to find and watch his show — to the amusement of the audience.

Jasmine Jobson Beats ‘The Crown’ Pair To Win Best Supporting Actress For ‘Top Boy’ — BAFTA TV Awards
Jasmine Jobson has won the BAFTA TV Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Netflix drama Top Boy.
She beat off competition from the likes of Elizabeth Debicki and Lesley Manville for their roles in The Crown.
The award was the first dished out at this year’s event and continues the rise of Jobson, whose role as Jaq in the gritty Top Boy has been a breakout for the British star.
Top Boy follows the lives of a pair of east London drug kingpins played by Ashley Walters and Kane Robinson, the latter of whom is up for Best Actor tonight. Jobson plays a high-ranking capo in their gang. The series began life on Channel 4 before it was revived on Netflix with the help of celebrity fan Drake.

It was a night of surprises at the BAFTA TV Awards, with “The Crown” and “Black Mirror” failing to pick up any awards while “Succession” walked away with only one for Matthew Macfadyen for best supporting actor.
Macfadyen did not attend the awards at London’s Royal Festival Hall, prompting Helena Bonham Carter, who presented the category, to walk off with the iconic gold BAFTA mask with the promise she would get it to Macfadyen.
The international category also saw upset, with frontrunners “Succession,” “Beef” and “The Bear” all failing to win the award. They were instead beaten by little-known French series “Class Act.” It was a fact acknowledged by the show’s shocked lead actor Laurent Lafitte, who, upon accepting the award, told the audience: “Please watch our show. It’s called ‘Class Act,’ it’s quite good — not just because I’m starring in it.”

One of the most noticeable omissions from the 2023 Emmy nominations was “The Crown” star Imelda Staunton, who was generally considered a safe bet since her predecessors in the role of Queen Elizabeth II – Claire Foy and Olivia Colman – had never failed to garner TV academy recognition. As she now seeks redemption in the form of a farewell win (just like Foy and Colman achieved in 2018 and 2021), multiple factors give her a better standing in the race compared to last year.
Based on the Emmy nominations predictions of over 2,000 Gold Derby users, Staunton is currently in second place behind Best Drama Actress frontrunner (and 2020 nominee) Jennifer Aniston (“The Morning Show”). At this time last year, Staunton was in the same spot (behind Melanie Lynskey of “Yellowjackets”), albeit with significantly longer odds (11/2 versus the present 4/1) and less than 7% of the top choice votes, whereas she currently holds 19%.

Opulent to outrageous, elegant to excessive, Monday night’s Met Gala red carpet was equal parts star-studded and visually stunning. Then again, with Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, Bad Bunny and Chris Hemsworth as the evening’s co-chairs, how could it not?

This year’s dress code, “The Garden of Time,” took its cue from the 1962 short story of the same name by J.G.

To try to do a big, sprawling Los Angeles ensemble movie is what the movie was, and that’s just a big undertaking. There’s a kind of noir-ish mystery vibe to the movie that’s very fun.”

For six seasons, The Crown told the story of the British royal family during the reign of Queen Elizabeth II. The show combined real-life events with acts of imagination, meaning that it was not always a hundred percent accurate. Season four of the series introduced everyone’s beloved Princess Diana, played by Emma Corrin, who later handed over the role to Elizabeth Debicki in season five.
The Crown Season 4
Emma Corrin, though a great actor, had only a few acting credits to their name before being cast as Lady Diana. Needless to say, the job made them quite nervous. After all, they were bringing one of the United Kingdom’s most popular personalities to the screen. In fact, there was one scene where they got a panic attack while filming.

Upon sweeping the four main drama acting categories at the 2021 Emmy Awards, “The Crown” stars Olivia Colman, Josh O’Connor, Gillian Anderson, and Tobias Menzies all joined a special roster of lead or supporting TV academy honorees who were not part of their shows’ original casts. As members of the expansive Netflix series’ second of three distinct ensembles, this quartet and their co-stars were replaced ahead of season five by a new group of actors, some of whom could be added to said exclusive winners club later this year.
