Exclusive: Preston Oliver (Secrets of Sulphur Springs), West Mulholland (Steven Soderbergh’s Presence), Ruby Rose Turner (Descendants: The Rise of Red), and Rachelle Lefevre (Twilight) have wrapped production on Someone Saved My Life, a period drama based on the Bloomington, Indiana childhood of Angelo Pizzo, the multi-hyphenate behind titles like Rudy and Hoosiers.

Set in the 1960s, the film follows junior high schooler Dean (Oliver), who strikes up a friendship with the vibrant yet reckless Roy (Mulholland), in an effort to escape his mother’s (Lefevre) controlling grasp. But when the boys’ friendship threatens Dean’s budding romance with Beth (Turner) and his own well-being, Dean must find his own voice, or risk following Roy down an increasingly dangerous path.

Pizzo directed from his own script. Bradley Gallo and Michael A. Helfant produced for Amasia Entertainment, with Jo Throckmorton and Joseph Stern (Judging Amy) also producing. Pizzo exec produced alongside Michael Leahy, Josh Sathre for Amasia, and Sugar Studios CEO Jijo Reed.

Pizzo is a writer, director and producer who broke out with a pair of classic films penned for director David Anspaugh: 1986’s inspirational high school basketball Hoosiers, which landed Oscar nominations for Best Supporting Actor Dennis Hopper and Original Score (Jerry Goldsmith), and the Sean Astin-led college football drama Rudy, which brought Goldsmith another nomination and is considered to be among the best sports films ever made. Most recently, Pizzo co-wrote The Hill, another sports drama starring Dennis Quaid, which tells the story of a pastor’s son who pursues his dream of becoming a pro baseball player.

Oliver has appeared in Disney Channel’s Secrets of Sulpher Springs, as well as the series Roswell, New Mexico, This Is Us, and Chicago Fire.

Soon to be seen in Steven Soderbergh’s Presence, Mulholland’s also appeared on shows like Animal Kingdom, Little Fires Everywhere, and Legion.

Turner is best known for turns in Disney+’s Descendants: The Rise of Red and Disney Channel’s Coop and Cami Ask the World.

Meanwhile, Lefevre has been seen in The Twilight Saga, shows like Proven Innocent, and more.

Oliver is repped by Lbi Entertainment, Coast to Coast Talent Group, and Schreck Rose Dapello; Mulholland by Seven Summits Pictures & Management and Osbrink Talent Agency; Turner by Definition Entertainment, CAA, and Skrzyniarz & Mallean; and Lefevre by Gersh, Alternative Agency, Pearl Hanan Management, and Meyer & Downs.

The Western crime drama Longmire presented plenty of murder mysteries during its six-season run, but one in particular was personal for Sheriff Walt Longmire (Robert Taylor) of Absaroka County, Wyoming. Beginning in season 5 and continuing into Longmire's sixth and final season, Walt finds himself in some serious legal trouble. After real estate developer Barlow Connally (Gerald McRaney) is shot and killed by Walt (an incident purposely orchestrated by Barlow), Barlow’s estate files a wrongful death civil suit against him.

Just when things are looking dire for the sheriff, the lawyer for the plaintiff, a man named Tucker Baggett (Brett Rice), is shot and killed. Naturally, the police like Walt for the murder, but who really killed Tucker and why? With Longmire on the case, the real culprit is a shock to everyone.

During their Consumer Electronics Show (CES) presentation last night, Naughty Dog head Neil Druckmann officially announced that The Last of Us season two will debut this coming April, exclusively on HBO and streaming on Max.

The second season will consist of seven episodes, and while we don't have an exact premiere date just yet, we'd imagine the series returns sometime in mid-April, in the same release window Game of Thrones used to occupy during its run.

Season two will pick up five years after the events of season one, which concluded with Joel (Pedro Pascal) going on a rampage to rescue an unconcious Ellie (Belly Ramsey) from the Fireflies and then, in an effort to protect her, covering up the truth by telling her that making a cure was impossible and that raiders had raided the facility and forced them to flee.

It would appear as though Ellie has seen...

Strangers have been trapped there, with seemingly no true escape. Jade (David Alpay) arrived on the same day as the Matthews, which was the first time two vehicles entered town on the same day.

A problem solver by nature, Jade spends his time collecting clues and trying to solve the mystery of the town, ultimately hoping to find a way home. David Alpay has been a part of the series from the first episode and has also appeared in other well-loved series like Proven Innocent and Suits. From season 3 releases new episodes on Sundays at 9pm Et/Pt on MGM+.

Exclusive: Academy Award nominee Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor (King Richard) and Rachelle Lefevre (Twilight franchise) have wrapped on Liz Here Now, a new indie drama from director Sterling Macer Jr.

Shot in Lexington, Ky, the film is based on the novel of the same name by Todd Connor. The story follows Liz Baxter (Ellis-Taylor), who works as a nanny for a prominent, white family in Oakland, California during the rise of the Black Panther Party in 1967. When Liz discovers that the Connor children are suffering under the hand of their mother, Jane (Lefevre), and attempts to step in to protect the children, she’s accused of participating in a Black Panther conspiracy.

In a statement on the project, Macer Jr. told Deadline, “Our approach to Liz Here Now is a kind of deconstruction of the black maid’s story, and to a degree, bends the genre of the civil rights era domestic drama,...

Warning: Minor spoilers ahead for Rick and Morty season 1, episode 1.

Rick and Morty season 7 replaces Justin Roiland with relatively unknown actors for continuity over novelty. Ian Cardoni's portrayal of Rick in episode 1 is an uncanny impression of Roiland's version, with less slurred speech than in the show's earlier seasons. Harry Belden's portrayal of Morty is close to the original incarnation, but the character doesn't get much screen time in the premiere.

After a long wait for Rick and Morty season 7, the premiere finally revealed the animated series' two new lead voice actors, and their names aren’t as recognizable as viewers might have expected. In January 2023, Rick and Morty star Justin Roiland was charged with domestic battery, and Adult Swim cut ties with the actor. Roiland’s other show, Solar Opposites, replaced him with Dan Stevens, a relatively high-profile star who appeared in 2017’s live-action Beauty and the Beast remake,...

The seventh season of Rick and Morty has been released, putting an end to fans' speculation about the voice actors behind the main characters in the series who replaced Justin Roiland.

After a six-month search that featured thousands of candidates, the new voice actors for the Adult Swim series Ian Cardoni and Harry Belden have been revealed. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Rick and Morty co-creator Dan Harmon and showrunner Scott Marder opened up about the audition process to find the new voices behind Rick Sanchez and Morty Smith. Marder revealed that the casting team considered a global hotline in their wide search to replace Roiland before revealing that finding a Rick was the most difficult challenge.

Co-creator Justin Roiland has been replaced as the voice of Rick and Morty in season 7 following allegations of misconduct. The new actors, Ian Cardoni and Harry Belden, have been revealed as the voices of Rick and Morty. The season 7 premiere finally unveiled the show's new lead performers after keeping their identities secret.

At long last, Justin Roiland's replacements for the title characters of Rick & Morty season 7 have been revealed. As co-creator of the hit Adult Swim comedy series, Roiland voiced both Rick and Morty since the show premiered in 2013. However, following allegations of domestic abuse and sexual assault, Roiland was let go from Rick & Morty this year, and it was confirmed his characters would be recast. The new actors have been kept tightly under wraps up until the season 7 premiere on Sunday, October 15.

Now, Rick & Morty season 7 has made its debut on Adult Swim, and it has revealed the new lead performers.

After a nearly six-month search that featured thousands of candidates, newcomers Ian Cardoni and Harry Belden now find themselves squarely in the spotlight after they officially made their debut as the voices of the narcissistic, alcoholic genius Rick (Ian Cardoni) and his bumbling grandson Morty (Harry Belden), respectively, in the season seven premiere of the Adult Swim animated hit.

Sunday’s premiere marked the first episode of Rick and Morty without co-creator Justin Roiland, who until now had voiced both characters (among others) for all of the show’s 61 previous episodes. Roiland was fired from the cult hit and saw his Hollywood empire implode after allegations of domestic violence surfaced and reports, including in The Hollywood Reporter, uncovered years of his allegedly troubling behavior. An Orange County District Attorney dismissed the domestic violence charges, citing insufficient evidence, and has also denied new allegations of misconduct that range from sexual harassment to sexual assault.

Exclusive: Bess Rous will round out the cast of Chris McKay’s Universal monster movie, Renfield.

She joins an ensemble that includes Nicholas Hoult, Nicolas Cage, Awkwafina, Ben Schwartz, Adrian Martinez and Shohreh Aghdashloo, as previously announced.

The film based on an original story outline by Robert Kirkman centers on Renfield (Hoult), who has grown sick and tired of his centuries as Dracula’s (Cage) lackey. The henchman finds a new lease on life and maybe even redemption when he falls for feisty, perennially angry traffic cop Rebecca Quincy (Awkwafina).

Bess will play Caitlyn, a member of a support group for people in toxic relationships.

Ryan Ridley penned the script. McKay is producing the film shooting in New Orleans with Skybound Entertainment’s film team, including Kirkman, David Alpert, Bryan Furst and Sean Furst, with his producing partner Samantha Nisenboim exec producing.

Oscar-nominated filmmaker Alex Garland is reteaming with A24 for Civil War, an action epic that has Kirsten Dunst set to star alongside Wagner Moura, Stephen McKinley Henderson and Cailee Spaeny.

Garland will direct the film set in a near-future America from his original screenplay. Details as far as its plot are being kept under wraps.

A24 will produce, alongside Andrew Macdonald and Allon Reich of DNA and Gregory Goodman, and handle the film’s global release.

Garland received his first Oscar nomination in 2016 for his Ex Machina screenplay and has also garnered accolades over the course of his career including a DGA Award and three BAFTA Award noms, among others. He’s previously teamed with A24 on Ex Machina, as well as Men, a horror-drama starring Jessie Buckley...

Alec Baldwin and Kelsey Grammer’s comedy will not be moving forward at ABC and is being shopped elsewhere. The straight-to-series order, which also had Alec Mapa attached to star, was scrapped after network executives saw the completed pilot episode, directed by James Burrows. ABC had been lining up the half-hour series for the 2021-22 season.

Per the logline, the untitled multi-camera series revolves around three men who were roommates in their 20s until their warring egos drove them apart. Now, the trio is reuniting decades later for one more run at the lives they’ve always wanted.

The series will mark Baldwin’s first major broadcast role since “30 Rock.” Grammer, most known for his roles in “Frasier” and “Cheers,” had most recently appeared in an episode of the CBS comedy “Carol’s Second Act,” after starring in the 2019 Fox legal drama “Proven Innocent,” which was canceled after only a single season.

Exclusive: Brittany Adebumola (Grand Army), Jaye Ladymore (The Chi) and Amarr Wooten (Colin in Black & White) are set as series regulars in 4400 (fka The 4400), the CW’s reimagining of the 2004 USA Network sci-fi drama series.

4400 hails from Riverdale co-executive producer Ariana Jackson and Anna Fricke, who successfully rebooted Walker, Texas Ranger for the CW.

In the new version, 4400 overlooked, undervalued, or otherwise marginalized people — two of them played by Joseph David-Jones and Khailah Johnson — who vanished without a trace over the last hundred years are all returned in an instant, having not aged a day and with no memory of what happened to them. As the government races to analyze the potential threat and contain the story, the 4400 themselves must grapple with the fact that they’ve been returned with a few…upgrades, and the increasing likelihood that they were all brought back now for a specific reason.

Exclusive: Tiffany Dupont (Brian Banks) is set as a series regular opposite Billy Campbell, Angel Parker and Gerardo Celasco in National Parks, ABC’s drama pilot co-written and executive produced by Yellowstone star Kevin Costner. The project hails from Costner’s Territory Pictures Entertainment, 20th Television and A+E Studios.

Co-written by Costner, Aaron Helbing and Jon Baird and to be directed by Anthony Hemingway, National Parks follows a small group of elite national parks service agents as they solve crimes while protecting the parks — which, while being known for their sweeping, beautiful landscapes, also attract a vast array of criminal activity.

Dupont will play Talia, a quick-witted Isb Special Agent and wildlife expert whose tenacity and attention to detail make her a vital part of the Isb team.

In addition to Campbell, Parker and Celasco, Dupont joins previously announced series regulars Ashleigh Sharpe Chestnut and Blu Hunt.

The long-rumored Frasier revival might actually be made.

TV Line is reporting that the revival has landed at Paramount+, the new name given to CBS All Access when it completes its reboot in the coming weeks.

The good news is that Kelsey Grammer would be returning as Dr. Frasier Crane should the stars align and the project gets a formal pickup.

The outlet stressed, however, that CBS TV Studios did not comment on the project, likely meaning that it is in very preliminary negotiations.

For this reason alone, the revival might not come to pass on Paramount+. There are a lot of considerations when bringing a beloved IP back from, well, the dead.

Contracts have to be signed, and the streamer will want to make sure the project will fit with its brand and, of course, budget.

Revivals that bring back the original cast are typically more expensive than your usual TV shows.

Exclusive: ABC’s Women of the Movement has assembled a team of four accomplished Black female directors for the first installment of the potential anthology that celebrates the women of the civil rights movement. Tina Mabry (Mississippi Damned), Julie Dash (Daughters of the Dust) and Kasi Lemmons (Harriet) will join Gina Prince-Bythewood (Love & Basketball), as directors on the limited series, from creator-writer Marissa Jo Cerar and a producing team that includes Jay-Z, Will Smith and Aaron Kaplan.

The six-episode series, set to premiere in 2021, centers on Mamie Till-Mobley, played by Adrienne Warren, who devoted her life to seeking justice for her son Emmett Till (Cedric Joe) following his brutal killing in the Jim Crow South.

As previously announced, Prince-Bythewood, who executive produces, will direct the first episode., Mabry will direct the second and third episodes, Dash will helm the fourth and fifth episodes and Lemmons will direct the sixth and final episode.

Exclusive: Meghan Leathers (For All Mankind) and Candice Coke (Proven Innocent) are set to recur opposite Eric Petersen and Annie Murphy in AMC’s dark comedy series Kevin Can F*** Himself, from Valerie Armstrong, Rashida Jones and Will McCormack and AMC Studios.

Created and executive produced by Armstrong, Kevin Can F*** Himself probes the secret life of a type of woman we all grew up believing we knew: the sitcom wife (Murphy). It looks to break television convention and ask what the world looks like through her eyes. Alternating between single-camera realism and multi-camera comedy, the formats will inform one another as we imagine what happens when the sitcom wife escapes her confines, and takes the lead in her own life.

In addition to Petersen and Murphy, they join previously announced Raymond Lee, Brian Howe, Mary Hollis Inboden and Alex Bonifer.

Meanwhile, ABC’s special What Is Jeopardy? featuring a candid interview with host Alex Trebek was the night’s most-watched show.

Last Man Standing tied with What Is Jeopardy? for the top demo spot Thursday. The Tim Allen-led sitcom was even in the demo with last season’s finale and up in viewers.

We're running down our favorite shows of the decade! In addition to our favorite action/adventure series and favorite procedurals, and relationship-focused programming, and supernatural series! Now, let's take a look at limited/anthology series!

Here is a reminder that we have almost two dozen favorites lists, and since we couldn't showcase every show on every list, we parsed them out a bit to make it more fun.

And these lists are not in any particular order. They're in the order the entries were received by TV Fanatic staff, so don't read into them!

To qualify, a show that began in another decade had to be airing during the decade, run a larger number of seasons from 2010 through 2019 if it started before 2010 or run the entire decade. Here we go!

The Kids Are Alright - ABC (2018)

The premature end of this series was one of the biggest disappointments of the decade.

Between the much-savaged final season of “Game of Thrones,” the decimation of Marvel’s TV universe and the dozens of other shows either concluded or canceled, 2019 saw more than its fair share of TV casualties. Here are 117 shows that won’t live to see 2020.

“The Parent Trap” star Elaine Hendrix has joined the cast of The CW’s “Dynasty” reboot as the new Alexis Carrington, a spokesperson for the network confirmed to TheWrap. According to the showrunner, “Alexis is back in Atlanta, with a new look, a new man, and plenty of scores to settle.”

Hendrix will play Carrington as a series regular on the show, which is currently airing its third season. She replaces Nicollette Sheridan, who played Carrington in seasons one and two of the reboot. Sheridan exited the soap opera to “focus on some personal family responsibilities,” the network and CBS Studios told TheWrap in February.

After Sheridan’s departure, Elizabeth Gillies, who also plays Carrington’s daughter Fallon, briefly took over the role.

Lee Daniels’ Fox music drama “Empire” will be entering its sixth and final season later this year. The broadcast network announced in May the final season for one of its flagship series, but “Empire” was hardly the only Fox series featuring black leads that got the plug pulled. Nearly every Fox series with a black lead got canceled, including Daniels’ “Star,” the Damon Wayans-led “Lethal Weapon,” Lil’ Rel Howery’s “Rel,” the Russell Hornsby-starring drama “Proven Innocent,” and the David Alan Grier comedy “The Cool Kids.” Daniels recently told Vulture he’s troubled by what all the cancellations have in common.

“Clearly, there’s obvious stuff going on,” Daniels said when asked about Fox dropping the ax on its original series with black leads. “I think it’s very obvious. I was disturbed by it. But I don’t think ‘Empire’ had anything to do with [a possible whitewashing of the network]. ‘Empire’ sort of...

As broadcast TV networks set their 2019-2020 programming lineups, diversity concerns still very much remain at the fore, as Hollywood overall continues to be under pressure to address its historical erasure of characters of color in front of and behind the camera. TV continues to outpace film in both regards, with recent improvement on how voices and stories from all walks of life are embraced within the space.

The good news is that, on all five...
