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.

Dennis Quaid (Photo credit: Derrek Kupish / Provided by Paramount+)
Dennis Quaid (Lawmen: Bass Reeves) is slipping into the world of a serial killer who used a smiley face as his calling card for Paramount+’s Happy Face. Emmy nominee Quaid will star as the Happy Face Killer in the streamer’s new drama, inspired by the killer’s daughter Melissa Moore’s autobiography, Shattered Silence, and her Happy Face podcast.
Emmy nominee Annaleigh Ashford (Welcome to Chippendales) was previously announced to play Melissa. Filming is expected to get underway this spring, with Paramount+ targeting a 2025 premiere for the eight-episode season.
“Happy Face for Paramount+ jumps off from Moore’s true-life story. Happy Face (Quaid) is an incarcerated serial killer who also is Melissa’s (Ashford) once-beloved father. After decades of no contact, he finally finds a way to force himself back into his daughter’s life,” reads Paramount+’s synopsis.

Jesse Metcalfe, who played John in the soapy series Desperate Housewives, shares his idea for a series reboot. These days, when the question of a possible Desperate Housewives continuation does come up, it's often related to the idea of bringing Teri Hatcher, Marcia Cross, Felicity Huffman, and Eva Longoria back to television screens. However, the iconic ABC show had a sprawling cast of supporting and recurring players, including Metcalfe. In the role of gardener John Rowland, the actor shared a number of memorable scenes with Longoria's Gabrielle Solis.
While promoting his new Prime Video film On a Wing and a Prayer, Metcalfe also spoke to Parade about rebooting Desperate Housewives. Metcalfe noted that he hasn't heard anything about whether the hit drama may return. In the quote below, though, he does bring up the idea of reprising his role as John in a potential new version of the show, saying:...

Sean McNamara’s On a Wing and a Prayer doesn't stand a chance from the opening frame. The flat comedy and ham-fisted themes from screenwriter Brian Egeston (The Game) don’t do the film any favors and, sadly, the performances range from bad to worse. The occasional moment of tension or interesting use of split screen is about all the film has to offer, which is a shame because the real-life actions of Doug White are nothing short of extraordinary. On a Wing and a Prayer is a tale of two halves and neither is entertaining.
Doug (Dennis Quaid) wants to learn how to fly and drags his brother along for the lesson. Once safely on the ground, the brothers enter a barbeque contest and win in a landslide. Rejoicing with their families over the victory, it seems life couldn’t be sweeter. That is, until Doug gets a call...

No redemptive stone is left unturned in “On a Wing and a Prayer,” Sean McNamara’s formulaic dramatization of the true events surrounding civilian Doug White’s 2009 emergency landing of a King Air 200 plane carrying his wife and children. Dennis Quaid leads a cast that includes Heather Graham, Jesse Metcalfe, Brett Rice and Rocky Myers through a “story of faith and survival” far less extraordinary than the filmmakers would have you believe, at least when working from a script by Brian Egeston that feels as mechanical as an aircraft instruction manual. Meanwhile, McNamara, best known for directing 2011 faith-based sleeper hit “Soul Surfer,” leans so heavily on the virtue of starting from the truth that he fails to recognize the abundance of elements that make his movie ring false.

There is a certain thrill that airplane films provide us with, and this feeling has been epitomized in recent times by “Top Gun: Maverick.” Aviation in films has achieved unimaginable heights, to the point where even the lingo of aviation has become quite familiar to us viewers. We do not need to look up the meaning of the words “Mayday” or “altimeter” every time we hear them. While “On a Wing and a Prayer,” based on a true story, deals with a layman trying to land a private jet, the film is about more than just aviation. Here’s how.

Though it’s not quite as vast or expensive as fellow Prime Video series The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, Citadel (premiering April 28) is a massive, massive undertaking. Starring Richard Madden and Priyanka Chopra Jonas, this spy series is described as “an expansive and groundbreaking global event comprising a mothership series and several local language satellite series.” This means that the Russo Brothers-produced project will eventually feature several spinoffs in multiple countries and languages around the world. Neat-o!
The only other major TV original of note this month is Dead Ringers, based on the 1988 David Cronenberg film of the same name,...

Emile Hirsch (“Once Upon a Time in Hollywood”), Inbar Levi (“Fauda”) and Yan Tual (“Outlander”) lead the cast of WWII-set drama “Bau, Artist at War,” which is now in production.
The film is based on the true story of Joseph and Rebecca Bau whose wedding in the Plaszow concentration camp was depicted in Steven Spielberg’s “Schindler’s List.” It follows Joseph’s journey as an artist and prisoner in the Plaszow camp and his fight for justice years later.
Using his skills to forge IDs, Joseph manages to stay alive while helping hundreds of prisoners escape from the camp, with his creativity and humor providing hope in a place of hopelessness. Rebecca, also a Resistance worker, serves as a spy in Kommandant Goeth’s (Josh Blacker) office. After the liquidation of the Plaszow camp, Rebecca is sent to Auschwitz, while Joseph is sent to Oskar Schindler’s (Edward Foy) factory in Brunnlitz.

As far as 1990s dreamgirls go, Heather Graham was at the top of the list for many of us. An ageless beauty who looks the same as she did twenty-five years ago, Graham has one of the most interesting careers of the era. Having started as the love interest in the Corey Haim/Corey Feldman teen cult classic Licence to Drive, she quickly established her serious acting chops in 1989’s Drugstore Cowboy. The movie helped launch her as an indie “It girl,” with her landing memorable roles on Twin Peaks (and the Fire Walk With Me movie), Six Degrees of Separation and more. She had a unique role as the object of Jon Favreau’s affections in Swingers but then hit the big time with her iconic part as Rollergirl in Paul Thomas Anderson’s Boogie Nights.

"Make sure you're buckled up back there!" Amazon has launched the official trailer for On a Wing and a Prayer, based on a true story about a scary flying incident. "Experience the inspirational true story this Easter weekend." It's only rated PG and of course involves a little bit of "prayer" making it the perfect Easter release in America. Though apparently it will be skipping theaters and showing directly on Prime Video for streaming throughout April. After their pilot dies unexpectedly mid-flight, Doug White has to safely land a small plane and save his entire family from insurmountable danger. They are flying in a tiny King Air 200 twin-turboprop plane, which is a different experience than most big commercial airliners. Dennis Quaid stars as Doug, with Heather Graham, Jesse Metcalfe, Jessi Case, and Abigail Rhyne. This film looks extremely cheesy and formulaic, but it's the kind of "believe in hope" true...

You’ve heard of single-setting thrillers, “127 Hours,” “Buried,” etc., but “On A Wing And A Prayer,” a new Prime Video film, is a bit of a twist on the genre and centers on a family on a vacation flight that turns deadly when the pilot has a heart attack and dies and the husband, a sort-of recreational flier who has a little bit of basic flying training, is tasked with safely landing the plane and rescuing his family from danger.

Heather Graham got her beach day in as she appeared to be thoroughly enjoying some bikini time alongside a mystery man.
The 52-year-old stunner who made a name for herself in the ’97 hit film Boogie Nights, which also shot Mark Wahlberg to the heights of fame, seemed to be getting her vitamin D intake as she frolicked along the beaches of Los Angeles.
Wearing a skimpy, black two-piece for her outing, Heather beamed with evident happiness as she splashed around in the surf alongside an unidentified, heavily-tattooed man.
Captured by eager paparazzi on her Labor Day weekend holiday excursion, the actress could be seen rocking a low-to-no makeup look and wet, slicked-back locks as she bared her body for the maximum sun-soaking experience.

Disney Branded Television will bring Shawn Amos’ debut novel Cookies & Milk to screen with an animated series currently in development. The project hails from Laurence Fishburne and Helen Sugland of Cinema Gypsy Productions (black-ish), Jesse Murphy and James Sears Bryant of Jesse James Films and Shawn Amos.
