Nikki Toscano has a long resume filled with many high-profile TV shows including Revenge, Bates Motel, Shades of Blue, Hunters, The Offer and American Gigolo. But nothing has delivered the “unique excitement” like her latest, Peacock’s Long Bright River starring Amanda Seyfried.
That’s because the eight-episode limited series marks her first creator credit (in tandem with Liz Moore who wrote the novel on which it is based) and her first time in the director’s chair. It’s a leap that came just at the right time for the veteran writer-producer who jumped behind the camera to direct the episode “Hereditary” which is full of reveals for its central characters.
Long Bright River, which debuted March 13, casts Seyfried as Mickey, a police officer who patrols a Philadelphia neighborhood hard-hit by the opioid crisis. When a series of murders begins in the neighborhood, Mickey realizes that her personal history...

Actor/comedian Richard Kind has a vibe that lives up to his last name, so when you’re looking to cast someone to play a demon in a movie, he’s probably one of the last people who would ever come to mind… which is exactly why casting Kind as a demon in the horror comedy Portal to Hell was a brilliant move on the part of writer/director Woody Bess. The film will have its premiere at the Slamdance film festival, which is being held from February 20th through the 26th, and in advance of its debut screening, Deadline reports that Raven Banner is representing the worldwide sales and distribution, presenting the film to potential buyers at the European Film Market.

Showtime has released a sneak peek at the “Yellowjackets” Season 3 premiere that doubles as a refresher on the story so far.
In the clip below, Van recounts the triumphant tale to her fellow survivors during a summer solstice celebration, while Shauna shares her traumatic perspective on the events in isolation.
Created by Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson, “Yellowjackets” is the saga of a team of high school soccer players who become the survivors of a plane crash deep in the remote northern wilderness. The series chronicles their descent from a complicated team to savage clans, while also tracking the lives they’ve attempted to piece back together nearly 25 years later.
In season three, as summer arrives, the Yellowjackets face a fragile victory—the brutal winter that nearly claimed them is finally behind them, but distrust in leadership and tension within the team jeopardize their chances of being rescued. In the present,...

For Jessica Alba, Hollywood is not the same playground it used to be in the early years of her career. Even so, the Fantastic Four actress remembers a time when prejudice and bias took precedence over talent and she received the short end of the stick in that regard.

But very similar to her case, the music legend Jennifer Lopez has faced criticism time and again throughout her career. Be it as a singer, a dancer, an actor, or a businesswoman, Lopez’s fight against the industry inspired Alba somewhere along the way. Later, it was her brutal experience that made the actress apathetic to the socio-political progress within Hollywood circles.

Say your prayers for Thine Ears Shall Bleed, a chillingly haunting new horror that sees a minister and his family experience unholy terror in the wilds of the American West. This fearsome feature from director Ben Bigelow is out now on UK Digital Platforms including to rent/buy on Amazon Prime Video, thanks to Miracle Media.
It’s the 1860s and a religious family are travelling across the western states in a covered wagon. Ezekiel (Andrew Hovelson – Shades of Blue) and Sarah, along with their children Abigail (Lea Zawada – FBI: Most Wanted) and Luke (Duke Huston), hear a mysterious sound from the woods, which they believe to be a calling from God. They begin to worship it… but it’s not long before their faith turns to unimaginable terror.
What they believed to be divine is far more sinister and they soon realise that they’ve welcomed an ungodly presence into their lives.

“The Sopranos” star Drea de Matteo was interviewed on Fox News’ “Jesse Watters Primetime” (via Mediaite) and said she’s got a target on her back in Hollywood because she’s an actor who does not endorse Joe Biden for president. The Emmy-winning actor went on to say there are “a lot” of “quiet” Donald Trump supporters in Hollywood, suggesting they won’t go public with their support out of fear of being similarly criticized for going against Biden.
“Is there a quiet Trump voter out there in Hollywood?” host Jesse Watters asked.
“I think there is a lot of them,” de Matteo answered.
Watters introduced “The Sopranos” actor by running clips from a recent celebrity-filled Joe Biden fundraiser in Los Angeles that raised $30 million and included appearances by Jack Black and Jimmy Kimmel. Watters also showed footage of Robert De Niro publicly slamming Trump outside of the Manhattan courtroom...

Exclusive: It’s been a year of evolution for the European Film Market and its TV track Berlinale Series Market. Management is changing at sister festival Berlinale, with Mariëtte Rissenbeek and Carlo Chatrian exiting amid worries about finances, and the number of films screened reducing.
Meanwhile, Berlinale Series boss Julia Fidel has also departed, with the track was discontinued as an independent program. Series will instead be highlighted as part of the Berlinale Series Gala — a move the festival thinks brings it closer in line with other European film fests such as Cannes and Venice.
Notably for the TV biz, the Berlinale Series Market industry conference remains unaffected and will be running a full program. Last year the likes of The White Lotus exec producer David Bernad, Shades of Blue creator Adi Hasak and The Tinder Swindler director Felicity Morris took the stage in sessions hosted by myself and Max Goldbart.

Exclusive: Karsen Liotta (Blackbird), daughter of the late Ray Liotta, is headlining an anthology indie pic that has been handed a SAG-AFTRA interim agreement.

Director Robert Rodriguez‘s action thriller Hypnotic, which stars Ben Affleck (Air), has taken a bumpy road on its way out into the world. It was delayed by the pandemic, shut down on three separate occasions, mixed up in an insurance lawsuit, and its main financier and distributor crumbled while it was filming. The movie spent two years in post-production, without a domestic distributor in place. It finally reached theatres earlier this month, courtesy of Ketchup Entertainment – and now it has received a digital release on all major platforms! For example, Hypnotic can be viewed on Amazon at This Link.
Scripted by Rodriguez (Machete) and Max Borenstein (Kong: Skull Island), Hypnotic sees Affleck taking on the role of a detective who finds himself spiralling down a rabbit hole while investigating a series of reality-bending crimes mysteriously connected to his missing daughter. Aided by a gifted psychic, he is pursued by...
