Some breaking news from Westeros: The Game of Thrones prequel series A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms has added a major talent from Black Mirror to serve as its debut season’s lead director, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
Owen Harris has boarded the HBO drama as an executive producer and will also direct the first three episodes, establishing the directorial vision for the series. Harris is best known for helming two of Black Mirror‘s finest episodes — “Be Right Back” and the widely acclaimed “San Junipero.”
In addition, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms‘ episode count has now been revealed: The first season will be six episodes, making for a tighter opener than the 10-episode first seasons of Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon. The run time seems appropriate given Knight is an adaptation of George R.R. Martin’s 160-page novella The Hedge Knight rather than one of his 900-page epic novels.

Jeannie Epper, the peerless, fearless stunt performer who doubled for Lynda Carter on Wonder Woman and swung on a vine across a 350-foot gorge and propelled down an epic mudslide as Kathleen Turner in Romancing the Stone, has died. She was 83.
Epper died Sunday night of natural causes at her home in Simi Valley, her family told The Hollywood Reporter.
Just one member of a dynasty of stunt performers that Steven Spielberg dubbed the “Flying Wallendas of Film” — starting with her father, John Epper, there have been four generations of Eppers in show business since the 1930s — she worked on 150-plus films and TV shows during an astounding 70-year career.
In 2007, Epper received the first lifetime achievement honor given to a woman at the World Taurus Awards and ranks among the greatest stuntwomen of all time.

The offices of Jimmy Kimmel Live! must be abuzz today.
For the second time in less than a week, Jimmy Kimmel and his late-night show were brought up in former President Donald Trump’s ongoing hush money trial.
Stormy Daniels took the stand at Trump’s trial today, where she was asked during her testimony about her January 2018 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!.
It was in that interview that Kimmel brought up a letter Daniels had allegedly signed denying she had an affair with Trump. When Kimmel asked whether the signature was authentic, Daniels gave a cagey reply that implied that it wasn’t.
Kimmel’s interview was first brought up in court on May 2nd when the prosecution entered into evidence text messages that Trump’s then-attorney Michael Cohen sent to Stormy Daniels’ lawyer Keith Davidson. In the texts, Cohen reacted with concern to Daniels’ appearance on Kimmel’s show.

Chicago Fire is losing another original cast member. Eamonn Walker, who has starred as Wallace Boden since the series premiere, will be leaving the NBC drama in the Season 12 finale, according to Deadline. It said to be his decision, and there is some good news: According to the report, we don’t have to worry about him dying in a season-ending emergency and he “is expected” to be back on a recurring basis. This does make it sound like the once Battalion Chief and now Deputy District Chief may very well be the next Deputy Commissioner. He is on the shortlist for the gig, and according to the logline for the May 22 final, “Never Say Goodbye”—in which he’ll appear, following Boden taking time off to help his stepson—he will be making a decision that impacts the race for that position. One way to explain his absence at...

“Girls5eva” deserves to be heard. Yes, the laugh-out-loud comedy, from the minds of Tina Fey, Robert Carlock, creator Meredith Scardino and others, is funny. The music industry is wickedly skewered. The music, led by Jeff Richmond, is clever and catchy.
But really, the heart of the show comes from its stars — Sara Bareilles, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Busy Philipps and Paula Pell — and the characters they play. These are women of a certain age who are rediscovering their voices and finally taking on their dreams, after years of settling for something less.

Two roads diverged when one man — scientist Jason Desson (played by Joel Edgerton) — chose to start a family instead of pursuing his professional research in quantum mechanics. Apple TV+‘s Dark Matter, an adrenaline-pumping, thought-provoking, nine-episode sci-fi thriller based on Blake Crouch’s 2016 bestselling novel, explores the resulting alternative lives Jason has, based on that decision he made so many years earlier. While “Jason 1,” a comfortable family man, works as a physics professor for a lower-tier Chicago community college and happily resides with ex-artist wife Daniela (Snowpiercer’s Jennifer Connelly) and their teenaged son Charlie (Oakes Fegley), “Jason 2” reaches incredible career heights, wins the most prestigious scientific awards — and builds a dimension-hopping metal box. Jason 2 then uses that box to abduct Jason 1, sending his unsuspecting alter-ego into that lonely, but successful life, so that Jason 2 may infiltrate the family he never got to have. “That tension between the family life and the work life,...

For a certain sector of TV watchers, “Schmigadoon!” was a glorious gift from heaven, an homage to and sly sendup of musicals from Broadway’s golden age in Season 1 and musicals from the darker and seedier ’70s and ’80s in Season 2. Then, Apple TV+ canceled the comedy, and TV got a little less weird and fun.
Now comes word that the musical — which starred Keegan Michael-Key and Cecily Strong as a couple who, first accidentally and then intentionally, land in a world where everyone lives up to the standards of musical theater convention — will make its live-action debut at The Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., in January 2025, directed and choreographed by the series’ choreographer, Christopher Gattelli with a book, music, and lyrics by series creator Cinco Paul.
In a review of Season 1, IndieWire’s Kristen Lopez wrote, “’Schmigadoon’ is a gamble, but it’s one I hope pays off.

Carrie Coon is confused and under the weather, though the two don’t appear to be connected. At the tail end of her March press tour for “Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire,” the Emmy- and Tony-nominated actor caught a bug akin to bronchitis. “I don’t know if it’s bronchitis,” Coon said over Zoom. “I’m being dramatic… but that’s my job!”
Bronchitis or not, confusion isn’t one of her symptoms. It’s the result of a particularly complicated Emmy season.

You have about a month left to steal “Loki” from your sister’s Disney+ account. And don’t count on Dr. Stephen Strange to roll back time on this one.
As previously announced, the Disney+ password-sharing crackdown will start in June “in very select markets,” Disney CEO Bob Iger reiterated on Tuesday. It’s an unpopular move, sure, but a “necessary and very, very productive” one in the race to catch Netflix, Iger said. Aw, that’s sweet: he still thinks Disney+ has a chance.
Iger, on a Tuesday conference call tied to quarterly earnings, called Netflix “the gold standard when it comes to streaming,” but added that Disney’s content stacks up “really well” vs. Netflix. What doesn’t stack up is the tech stack.
It is a head start on streaming technology that separates Netflix from the pack, Iger said, which is why the industry leader has industry-leading margins.

Bridgerton Season 3 is bringing Penelope (Nicola Coughlan) and Colin’s (Luke Newton) love story to life from Julia Quinn’s Romancing Mister Bridgerton. However, a key character from Polin’s book is not featured in the Netflix show at all: Felicity Featherington. Another Featherington sister?! Yes, there’s another one in the book series! Felicity is closest to Penelope within the Featherington family and the youngest sibling. She’s also a dear friend to Hyacinth Bridgerton. In the Netflix series, Penelope only has two siblings, Prudence (Bessie Carter) and Philippa (Harriet Cains). Showrunner Jess Brownell explains Felicity’s absence in the show to TV Insider. “I think [that] was a smart decision. I think that was a decision made by Chris Van Dusen and Shonda [Rhimes] early on in the pilot,” Brownell says. “It just gets hard to characterize three siblings, especially when the Featheringtons are in a secondary position.

John Mulaney is attempting to disrupt the late-night formula with Everybody’s in L.A., a fascinatingly chaotic fever dream of a live series that shows you what happens when you give an innovative comedian at the top of his game the chance to experiment with the television medium. But all anyone wants to talk about is Mulaney’s hair.
Over on X (formerly Twitter), the chatter surrounding Mulaney’s new center-parted longer ‘do is near-deafening. “Beautiful” and “orgasmic” are just two of the ways his locks have been described, while others have likened the comedian to everyone from Clark Kent to Jason Bateman.
But where others might see a distraction, Netflix is seeing opportunity. The streamer is sticking to the old adage that any publicity is good publicity by leaning into the internet’s apparent fascination with Mulaney’s mane in a valiant effort to help drive viewers to his very limited series.

Game of Thrones actor Ian Gelder has died at the age of 74. His husband, Interview With the Vampire Season 2 star Ben Daniels, revealed his passing in a heartbreaking post on Instagram on Tuesday, May 7. The couple was together for more than 30 years. Gelder played Kevan Lannister in 12 episodes of Game of Thrones, among many other TV and film roles, many of which were U.K. productions. Daniels had stopped “all work” to be Gelder’s primary caretaker as he underwent treatment for bile duct cancer, with which he was diagnosed in December 2023. “It is with huge huge sadness and a heavy heart broken into a million pieces that I’m leaving this post to announce the passing of my darling husband and life partner Ian Gelder,” Daniels wrote on Instagram. “Ian was diagnosed with bile duct cancer in December and yesterday he passed at 13.07.

During a post-roast interview on “The Howard Stern Show,” Glaser rattled off some of the Brady jokes she cut from her set.

The first season of “Loki” was the most popular of all the Marvel series to premiere on Disney+, and for good reason: The imaginative world of the Time Variance Authority (Tva) and the core relationships established within it — most notably the warm and hilarious partnership between Tom Hiddleston’s title character and Tva functionary Mobius M. Mobius (Owen Wilson) — yielded one of the liveliest and most involving Marvel screen stories since the original “Iron Man.” But as impressive as Season 1 was, it was only a warm-up for the more ambitious, suspenseful, and poignant Season 2, in which Loki finally fulfills a destiny set up for him 13 years ago in the movie “Thor” — though in a way that neither he nor the audience could possibly have predicted.
The trajectory of Loki’s character from “Thor” to “Loki” Season 2 is about as complex a character arc as one can imagine, ranging from pure...

Actress Susan Buckner, best known for playing cheerleader Patty Simcox in the 1978 musical comedy Grease, has passed away. She was 72. “Susan died peacefully on May 2 surrounded by loved ones,” according to Melissa Berthier, a publicist for the family. No cause of death was provided.

NCIS: Hawai’i left off on quite the cliffhanger in what was meant to just be the Season 3 finale. Instead, it ended up being the series finale, and this comes after a shortened season that set up a few things that could have easily been explored going forward. For instance, a tease about team leader Jane Tennant’s (Vanessa Lachey) and Lucy’s (Yasmine Al-Bustami) and Kate’s (Tori Anderson) conversation about a wedding set up plenty for the agents off the clock. And the final scene involving Jane could have led to anything for the team to deal with. Below, we take a look at the three major questions that might not ever be answered because NCIS: Hawai’i was canceled. What Brings Maggie Back? In the last scene of the series, Jane arrives home to find her former mentor-turned-fugitive, Maggie (Julie White), waiting. She told Jane her daughter was...

As Curb Your Enthusiasm approached its end (seemingly for real this time), it looked like Larry David (the fictional one) was finally going to get his comeuppance as a result of one of the few decent things he did with no expectation of reciprocity, perversely enough. But like the real Larry David, Curb’s curmudgeonly protagonist had friends in high places, one of whom came to rescue him in his hour of need. He also found a way to right a wrong, suggesting an alternate ending to Seinfeld, even if it was 26 years too late.

The Golden Bachelor couple Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist‘s three-month marriage might just have come to an end over a disagreement about cornfields. Former Bachelor Ben Higgins spoke with Ashley Iaconetti on her podcast Almost Famous on Monday, May 6, and said that he’d heard a rumor about the golden couple’s separation that it was sparked by an argument that occurred on a long drive back to Gerry’s lake house in Indiana. “I want to be clear that as I preface this, this is a rumor of a generalization of a conversation that Gerry and Theresa had, and I think you’re gonna find it interesting,” said Higgins. Allegedly, during the two-hour drive Theresa brought up the subject of all of the “untouched land” they were driving by, supposedly suggesting that the open fields could be developed with condos, office buildings, and apartments.

She went on to mock Trump, groaning, “‘Oh my gosh, they’re so mean to me!'” before continuing. “He was whining outside the courtroom yesterday about the judge threatening to throw him in the clink if he keeps violating the gag order.
