As to how many subscribers are watching “Ted Lasso” win them over — well, that’s hard to say. The company’s services division, which includes Apple TV+ as well as music, games, and other subscription products, counts 700 million paid subscribers. That’s up over 25 percent from last year, and nearly four times the number of paid subscriptions four years ago. Apple TV+ launched nearly two years ago, which might suggest it’s making an impact in the company’s subscription business....

Next up, it plays the New York Film Festival before Focus Features opens the film on October 28. Watch the official trailer below. The all-star ensemble for “Armageddon Time” features Emmy winner Jeremy Strong, along with Anthony Hopkins and Anne Hathaway. All are already in the awards mix for their turns, but especially Strong, who plays a moody plumber father (to Banks Repeta) weathering societal change up against the backdrop of the rise of Ronald Reagan, on the cusp of becoming president in 1980....

The very idea of cinema showing the horrors and travails of motherhood isn’t new. It’s a trend gaining speed with films like “Kindred,” “Umma,” and “Lamb.” And yet, what separates Wohl’s film from everything else is how it dissects the performative exteriority of maternal life by using postpartum psychosis as a means to inflict the real-life terrors, paranoia, insomnia and hallucinations experienced by new mothers. At its outset, “Baby Ruby” places the titular infant as the villain....

Last Year’s Winner: Billy Porter, “Pose” Still Eligible: Yes. Hot Streak: The last actor to win consecutive trophies for Best Actor in a Drama Series was Bryan Cranston, who took home three straight Emmys for “Breaking Bad” between 2008 – 2010. Cranston won again in 2014, making him the only actor to win in this category twice in the last 10 years. Fun Fact: Between Sterling K. Brown and Milo Ventimiglia, “This Is Us” has earned six Emmy nominations in this category alone, tying it for the seventh most of any program, ever....

From “Do the Right Thing” to “Da 5 Bloods,” Spike Lee’s film catalog is packed with classics that have shaped Black cinema, and film at large. The Brooklyn-born auteur is known for a unique storytelling style, and of course, his signature double-dolly shot (where the character remains stationary while the background moves), which he’s used in several films including “Mo’ Better Blueseppice” and “Malcolm X.” Last week, Film at Lincoln Center presented Lee with the Chaplin Award during the 46th Chaplin Award Gala, held at New York City’s Alice Tully Hall....

According to public filings from the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, Iger’s annual base salary during this second term will be $1 million. However, under his employment agreement with the company, he also stands to earn a $1 million dollar annual bonus based on performance, as well as a $25 million long-term incentive award for each year of his contract. Thus, Iger can potentially earn $27 million dollars annually while back in the position....

The road, of course, isn’t easy. The family’s bills pile up. His temperamental father (Perry Yung) is now on parole. His mother (Pamelyn Chee), who mercilessly berates her husband, is verbally and physically abusive. If Huang focused on the trio’s fraught dynamic, this coming-of-age story would elevate to the basket. Huang’s first feature, however, uplifts the Asian American struggle while falling into the same othering it purports to despise for an aimless, senseless, undramatic sports flick....
