“Some of you have gone WAY too far. TOXIC,” Morgan tweeted April 28. AMC announced in September 2020 that a spin-off series starring Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride would follow their respective fan-favorite characters, Daryl Dixon and Carol Peletier. Showrunner Angela Kang previously described the series as a “road show” for Carol and Daryl. However, the network confirmed that actress McBride will be exiting the as-yet untitled series ahead of production in Europe....

What Warner Bros. Discovery’s army of accountants called “content impairment and development write-offs” are part of greater “pre-tax restructuring charges” recognized in its fiscal third quarter, totaling between $3.2 billion and $4.3 billion. The difference comes from other restructuring costs, like the severance packages that accompany mass layoffs, and the consolidation of offices and other facilities. That’s one way to balance the balance sheet. WBD performed what it called “strategic content programming assessments” to come up with the $2 billion-plus in write-offs of TV series and movies....

“I don’t have any involvement, but I support the young artists and I support Marvel in their business decisions,” Snipes told Uproxx. “It’s a beautiful thing. [Mahershala Ali has] got a heck of a job on his hands.” Snipes said of making the original “Blade” trilogy, “We were white belts then, wait until you see now what we do as black belts,” alluding to a new action movie that “is going to smoke all of the ‘Blade’ stuff....

Appearing alongside Jane Campion, Pedro Almodóvar, Kenneth Branagh, Asghar Farhadi, and Reinaldo Marcus Green as part of The Hollywood Reporter’s Director’s Roundtable, del Toro took a strong stance against the use of real guns in filmmaking. The Oscar-winning director said that he has not fired a real gun on set “since 2007 or 2008.” According to del Toro, the decision began as a practical necessity, but later became his preferred approach....

Fans of “Yellowstone” have a lot to look forward to in the near future. Sheridan continues to expand his television empire at a whiplash-inducing pace, with several new “Yellowstone” spin-offs in development. Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren are set to star in the prequel series “1923,” which will stream on Paramount+. Sheridan is also executive producing the spin-off “6666” for Paramount Network, which will be set in the present day and take place at a different ranch that competes with the Dutton family business....

Almost certainly the funniest movie about organ transportation since “Rat Race” (someone make a Letterboxd list), “12 Hour Shift” doesn’t allow for quite the same kind of bravura showcase that Bettis gave us in “May” — Grant’s film, while plenty deranged in its own right, is nevertheless grounded in reality — but it still depends on the actor’s genius for being loathsome and lovable at the same time. Bettis is Mandy, the most irritable nurse her little Arkansas hospital has ever seen....

Executive produced by Monica Lewinsky and Max Joseph, the film attempts to give insight into the way that the internet and social media feed into the modern methods of public shaming and the rise of “cancel culture.” Those groundswells of judgement are so vitriolic and widespread that it sometimes results in ordinary people, whether they made a mistake or were simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. Lewinsky knows all about going from an anonymous citizen to the center of a scandal resonating on a global stage overnight....
