Apple TV+ has landed a series adaptation of Marissa Stapley’s best-selling novel Lucky, with Anya Taylor-Joy set to play the lead role.

The limited series, on which Taylor-Joy (Furiosa, The Queen’s Gambit) will also be an executive producer, comes from Apple Studios and Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine (the novel was a Reese’s Book Club selection in 2021). Jonathan Tropper (Apple’s See and the forthcoming Your Friends & Neigbhors) is the series creator and will serve as co-showrunner with Cassie Pappas (Silo, Griselda).

Lucky will be Taylor-Joy’s second project with Apple; she also stars in the feature film The Gorge, set to debut next year. Witherspoon also has a relationship with Apple TV+ via The Morning Show, where she stars and exec produces.

“Reese’s Book Club began with the goal of deepening connections — to the stories, to the storytellers, and to the community we are building,” Witherspoon said in a statement.

Africa is getting its own Project Runway.

A new edition of the hit fashion design competition show, Project Runway Africa, is set to launch next year, showcasing emerging African designer talent from across the continent.

Takeout Media and What Network will produce the African version of the show through their single-purpose vehicle Take Two Media, which licensed the format from global producer and distributor Fremantle.

“This isn’t just a television show, it’s a cultural moment,” said Project Runway Africa co-executive producer Chichi Nwoko, saying the show would highlight Africa’s rapidly evolving fashion ecosystem and present designers with an opportunity for expert mentorship.

“Africa’s fashion industry is one of the fastest-growing in the world, fueled by a dynamic, young audience and rich cultural influences,” said Nwoko. “With Project Runway Africa, we’re creating a platform that celebrates the continent’s boundless creativity, empowering designers to bring their...

Streamer ZEE5 Global has released the first trailer for “Despatch,” featuring Manoj Bajpayee as a crime journalist whose investigation into a Mumbai scam spirals into a life-threatening ordeal.

The footage reveals mounting threats against Bajpayee’s character Joy Bag as he pursues a breaking story that entangles him in a web of media corruption and underworld power plays.

On Monday night’s episode of “The Daily Show,” Jon Stewart shared his thoughts on President Joe Biden pardoning his son Hunter Biden, even though he had repeatedly said in the past that he wouldn’t.

“Hypocrisy isn’t illegal, nor is it particularly unusual in politics,” Stewart said. “It’s not like he’s ever going to run again. So why not take care of your kid, even if you said you weren’t gonna? I respect it. I don’t have a problem with it.”

Stewart went on to explain that, to him, the true issue is that...

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for What We Do in the Shadows Season 6, Episode 9, “Come Out and Play.”] What We Do in the Shadows saw the vampires of New York City step into the light for a very special occasion as Baron Afanas (Doug Jones) prepared to accept an Eternal Lifetime Achievement Award. But as with most plans in FX‘s beloved mockumentary, the Baron’s moment didn’t go as planned as he was joined by his “kids,” the vampires of Staten Island, Nandor (Kayvan Novak), Lazslo (Matt Berry), Nadja (Natasia Demetriou), and Colin Robinson (Mark Proskch). When the Baron is invited onto the stage to receive his honor, presenter and former forgotten Staten Island roommate, Jerry (Mike O’Brien), the disgruntled vampire tears down the figure with demeaning words. Jerry calls out the Baron for not fulfilling his promise to take over the continent, and Lazslo’s monster doesn’t take too kindly to it,...

Alexander Skarsgard just sunk his teeth into another TV vampire role.

The True Blood alum made a surprise appearance in Monday’s episode of the FX vampire comedy What We Do in the Shadows, appearing at a celebration for head vampire Baron Afanas, played by Doug Jones. The Baron announced his intentions to take over the new world, and when one woman tried to ask him a question, Laszlo’s brutish monster smashed her skull to bloody bits. So when the Baron asked if there were any more questions, the camera cut to Skarsgard sheepishly putting his hand down: “I thought I had a question,...

After the show’s midseason finale, the trailer for Fox’s “9-1-1: Lone Star”s remaining episodes dropped — the show will return on Monday, Jan. 20.

The 30-second preview teases an asteroid warning that could mean the end of the world as the crew of firefighters must band together.

“9-1-1: Lone Star” is a spinoff of the original “9-1-1” — which now airs on ABC — that premiered in January 2020. This new story takes place in Austin, Texas, as Owen Strand (Rob Lowe), a firefighter from New York City, arrives with his son. The procedural follows the lives of firefighters as they fight...

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for 9-1-1: Lone Star Season 5 Episode 9 “Fall From Grace.”] How has Judd (Jim Parrack) been doing without Grace on 9-1-1: Lone Star? In two words: not well. As Owen (Rob Lowe) discovers after bringing him home after a night out, Judd has been drinking—there are bottles everywhere. Judd’s been hungover, not sick, at work, but he swears he’s never been drunk on the job. It started after Grace left, Judd admits, because he lost his “center.” He can stop cold turkey, he promises, it’s just a rough patch. It’s been five months, Owen argues. Judd protests that he’s acknowledging the problem. But now Owen’s decided not to take a job offer in New York and insists on taking Judd to a meeting. Below, co-showrunner Rashad Raisani takes us inside Judd’s arc for the end ...

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for 9-1-1: Lone Star Season 5 Episode 9 “Fall From Grace.”] The good news: Carlos (Rafael Silva) finally closes the case on his father’s murder. The bad news: The truth about what happened is a tough pill to swallow. But 9-1-1: Lone Star, in its last fall finale, delivers answers and ends its 2024 on a promising note for Tarlos. Though it looked like Carlos’ new partner Campbell (Parker Young) was dirty and had sold out criminal informants then killed Gabriel Reyes, he was, in fact, set up by Chief Bridges (Alan Autry). Campbell then saved Carlos’ life, taking out Bridges when he had no choice, during a standoff with the Rangers. “At the end of 508, I thought I was a bad guy,” Young tells TV Insider as part of our 9-1-1: Lone Star aftershow, First Response. “I thought it was an incredible script, but I was bummed. It definitely broke my heart ...

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for Superman & Lois‘ series finale, “It Went By So Fast.”] Don’t be sad that Superman & Lois is over. Be glad that it happened at all. Because this show flew into our lives and redefined one of the most iconic DC Comics couples ever, amid some unprecedented challenges. Firstly, it was the umpteenth Arrowverse-adjacent project to join the CW when superhero fatigue was just starting to set in. Secondly, it launched during Covid when productions were hobbled by safety protocols and limited promotional opportunities. Thirdly, it had the unenviable task of filling its lead roles with actors who could both embody these legends and appeal to a massive fandom packing big opinions. Colin Bentley/The CW Yet S&l soared, primarily due to it easily clearing that third hurdle. By casting Tyler Hoechlin and Elizabeth Tulloch as Smallville’s First Couple—and testing them out in the Arrowverse crossovers—the show ...

“Star Wars” has always been, on some level, for children. That’s neither condescension nor criticism: George Lucas created a swashbuckling fairy tale set in space, and its mantle has been taken up by successive generations of filmmakers who encountered it at a formative age. But, with the exception of “The Phantom Menace,” “Star Wars” stories have rarely been about children. That’s the value proposition of “Skeleton Crew,” the latest TV series from a franchise that now largely exists on the small screen. In a way, it’s also the most true to the saga’s DNA — or at...

A long time ago, back when Lucasfilm first shared plans to expand the “Star Wars” universe via live-action streaming television, the most exciting part was its limitless potential. While each movie traveled to new worlds, utilizing new doodads and revealing new creatures, there’s still a cap to how much of the galaxy you can see in a two-hour film. And that time limit only grew tighter when so much screentime was taken up by nostalgia: revisiting old worlds, reintroducing old creatures, and wielding old doodads. But unlike the big-screen franchise, not everything on the small-screen had to bend back to the Skywalker trilogy — or so it seemed, before “The Mandalorian” reintroduced Luke himself and set plans to become a movie of its own.

“Star Wars: Skeleton Crew” is the closest the Disney+ era has come to revisiting the franchise’s galaxy-sized creative potential. Working from a story about a...

Is there an Edible Arrangement big enough to properly say, “I’m sorry for accusing you of killing my dad”? If so, Carlos owes one to Ranger Campbell after the fall finale of 9-1-1: Lone Star.

To make a long story (very) short, Monday’s episode revealed that Chief Bridges was the real crooked Ranger — but only after Campbell went on the run, Carlos got shot, and Campbell’s wife was hauled downtown on suspicion of conspiracy. (No wonder she shot daggers at Carlos when she saw him at the hospital. She really didn’t know anything!)

After struggling through a broadcast on Thanksgiving Day, NBC4 reporter Leon Harris will be “stepping away from the anchor desk to focus on health issues,” the Washington, D.C., station announced in a statement on Monday.

“Last week, Leon appeared unwell while anchoring News4 at 6,” said the affiliate news channel. We here at NBC4 — and you at home — care deeply about Leon and wish him well. We thank you for your concern.”

On Nov. 28, the 63-year-old Harris caused concern from viewers after he slurred his words, stumbled through sentences and struggled to pronounce certain words during an evening news segment about local vandalism.

Usually, when a contestant doesn’t know the answer to their Wheel of Fortune bonus puzzle, it’s plain as day because they can’t hide their puzzled facial expression when the timer begins. But in a rare instance last week, a player had viewers convinced she would solve what many dubbed an “easy” bonus puzzle based on her reaction — before proceeding to do anything but. The swift turn of events occurred on Tuesday, November 26’s episode, and it involved contestant and “big hugger” Katheryn from Arlington, Tennessee. She won the game after racking up $14,176 in cash, a trip to Costa Rica, and barely overtaking opponent Oleh after Ryan Seacrest’s controversial host move of not reminding Oleh to pick a letter. She selected “Food & Drink” as her category. With her husband of 16 years cheering her on off-sides, Katheryn was faced with a three-word puzzle. She selected an “Mdco” as her additional letters.

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for the Monday, December 2 episode of Jeopardy!] Jeopardy! is gearing up for its 2025 postseason with (mercifully shorter!) past-player contests and the coveted Tournament of Champions. With annual tournaments fast approaching, Monday’s episode brought an impressive new champ in Evan Jones—though fans, and apparently host Ken Jennings, weren’t impressed with the game’s Final Jeopardy clue. The champ going in was Susan Beachy, a news reacher from Queens, New York, who won the previous match for a one-day total of $9,300. She faced Jones, a software designer from Seattle, Washington, and Mike Ross, a teacher from Kansas City, Missouri. In the Jeopardy! round, Beachy found the Daily Double instantly but took a far-flung guess on the “Cheers to Beer” bodybuilding clue seeking “Mr. Olympia.” She finished the round with $1,000, while Jones swept an “Anagrams Occupations” category like it was nothing for a wide lead of $6,000, and Ross had $3,400. In Double Jeopardy, Ross found ...

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for Outlander, Season 7, Episode 10, “Brotherly Love.”] Outlander may have pulled Claire (Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie (Sam Heughan) apart in the most recent Season 7 episode, “Brotherly Love,” but it brought another pair back together as Young Ian (John Bell) and Rachel (Izzy Meikle-Small) were reunited. After arriving in Philadelphia, Ian is greeted by his trusty dog Rollo, but Rachel is nowhere to be found after the pet wandered from her side to his. While much of the episode sees the pair missing each other, Ian is eventually directed to the stables where he finds Rachel being held up by Arch Bug (Hugh Ross), who has vowed to take her life after Ian killed his wife. While Ian manages to get Arch away from Rachel, it is William (Charles Vandervaart) who intervenes, shooting the old man to protect Ian from being axed in the head after taking a blade to the arm in the scuffle.

Noah Centineo isn’t a stranger to having all eyes on him. From To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before to Sierra Burgess Is a Loser, the actor is used to being on the radar as everyone’s Netflix crush. Now, he’s spying right back in his upcoming series, The Recruit, premiering Dec. 16.

Centineo stars as Owen Hendricks, a young CIA lawyer whose first week on the job gets off to a rocky start. After discovering a threatening letter by former asset Max Meladze (Laura Haddock), who’s planning to expose the agency unless they exonerate her of a serious crime, Owen finds himself entangled in a dangerous and absurd world of power politics and mischievous players. As if the stakes weren’t already high enough, he must now travel the world in hopes of completing his assignment and making a mark at the CIA. Talk about an onboarding experience.

[Warning: The following contains Major spoilers for Yellowstone Season 5 Part 2.] Yellowstone has almost killed off one character per episode in what’s presumed to be its final season. Out of four episodes released so far (and just two more to go), three have featured a major character death. The first was John Dutton’s, brought about by Kevin Costner’s shocking exit from the series. Viewers assumed the Dutton patriarch would be killed off to explain Costner’s absence from Season 5 Part 2. But the subsequent deaths have been more shocking. Sarah Atwood’s (Dawn Olivieri) murder made sense for the story, given the hit she ordered on John didn’t go as planned in the aftermath. But the death of Denim Richards‘ Colby in Episode 12 was entirely unnecessary, if you ask us. Not only because the story didn’t need it, but also because it took time away from addressing the burning questions we still need answered...

“Star Wars: Skeleton Crew” (now streaming on Disney+) is like “Goonies” in space, with four kids discovering a deserted Starship on their suburban home planet post “Return of the Jedi” and going on a pirate adventure with a mysterious Force-user played by Jude Law.

[Editor’s Note: This article contains spoilers for Episode 3 of “Dune: Prophecy”]

Say whatever you will about Frank Herbert and Brian Herbert, but you cannot accuse them of being narrow in scope or not comprehensive in the fictional worlds they’ve built. There is a 10,000-year gap between the Denis Villeneuve “Dune” films and the events of “Dune: Prophecy,” and enough lore for production designer Tom Meyer to imbue every piece of that history into the design of the HBO series.

The assignment is a designer’s dream in many ways; Meyer needed to create a variety of extremely different environments that would be immediately visually distinct, even if they all share the same large-scale, imposing geometric force established in the films. But whether with the stern austerity of the Bene Gesserit base on Wallach IX or the cancerous grandeur that could potentially swallow up the Corrino family on Salusa Secundus, Meyer thought through how well, or how harshly, history would have treated them.

Hoda Kotb left her Today co-host Jenna Bush Hager momentarily speechless by recalling an unthinkable exchange from before her time at NBC in which an unnamed boss critiqued her weight. On Monday, December 2, the anchors of Today With Hoda and Jenna discussed how Timothee Chalamet has successfully pivoted to action roles after reportedly losing out on previous jobs because of his body type. “I mean, look, sometimes people will tell you things that you’re not right for,” Kotb said. “I still remember had just started working in a small market,” she continued. “And I played basketball in high school so I always assumed I was in shape even though, literally, after college and stuff I wasn’t.” “I still remember my boss going to me, ‘Hey, Hoda,’ and I was like, ‘Yeah?’ He goes, ‘Hey, I got an idea.

Prepare for battle: The hit music competition series Rhythm + Flowis returning for a new season to discover the next generation’s rap superstar.

And who better to guide the contestants than three of the biggest names in hip-hop today? DJ Khaled, Ludacris, and Latto will serve as the judges for Season 2, coming to Netflix on Nov. 20. Based in Atlanta, a hotbed of the American hip-hop scene, the trio of hitmakers will assess a talented group of young and hungry artists competing for a grand prize of $250,000 and the title of hip-hop’s newest star.

But that’s not all. Rhythm + Flow is also assembling a crew of legendary music moguls and industry icons to lend their expertise, including the one and only Eminem. He’ll join the series as a special guest judge from a surprise location during one of the competition’s high-stakes battles.

As Ava dug deeper into trying to uncover the identity of the newest serial killer galavanting around town, Drew was doing some meddling of her own. But instead of being the detective Ava thinks her to be, she is actually Olivia, the ex of Westside Ripper Matt (Tom Bateman). It turns out that Olivia wanted to end Matt’s murder spree by catching him in the midst of a crime and revealing evidence to authorities. Realizing the threat Olivia is making, Ava’s sister and Matt’s fiancee, Tory (Liana Liberato) stabbed the woman, killing her. While Olivia’s time was short-lived, Fumero’s latest role certainly packed a punch. Below,...

Apple TV+ has ordered a new limited series titled Lucky, the streamer announced Monday, which will star and be executive-produced by Anya Taylor-Joy.

Anya Taylor-Joy is about to get Lucky — so is Apple TV+, for that matter.

The Apple streaming service has acquired the rights to “Lucky,” a new limited series that will star Taylor-Joy and be executive produced by Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine banner.

“Lucky” is based on a New York Times-bestselling novel — and an entry in Reese’s Book Club — by Marissa Stapley. It tells the story of a young woman who left behind the life of crime she was raised in years ago, but must now embrace her darker, criminal side one final time in a desperate attempt to escape her past. So that’s Taylor-Joy’s mission.

Jonathan Tropper, who was behind “See” for Apple Studios, and Cassie Pappas, who works on Apple’s “Silo,” are co-showrunning “Lucky,” with Tropper writing and executive producing. Witherspoon will also executive produce alongside Lauren Neustadter for Hello Sunshine, and Taylor-Joy will...

Each episode of The Price Is Right features an undisclosed assortment of games, and that variety is part of its mass appeal. However, fans think it’s due time to either retire or change one segment in particular: the Time is Money game, which just saw a contestant come up very short — and short on breath. The Time is Money game is worth a maximum of $20,000 and is a staple of the game show despite being long branded as “impossible.” A player is shown five grocery items and then has just ten seconds to place each item on three shelves based on their prices. If they do so correctly, they win. If not (usually the case), there’s a redemption opportunity: they get 40 more seconds to rearrange the items correctly, with the prize pot decreasing every second. With each new guess, they must race over to a buzzer on side-stage to lock it in,...

Ryan Seacrest’s era of Wheel of Fortune is spinning along just fine, aside from the occasional speed bump. However, last week brought an unfortunate occurrence that fans argued should never happen, host aside. Four of the five bonus rounds resulted in losses, leaving fans shocked and wondering if the producers should step in. On Tuesday, November 26’s episode, the contestant who proceeded to the coveted 10-second final puzzle was Katheryn. Her three-word “Food & Drink” puzzle read as, “‘_RO_EN’ ‘ORN_E_’ ‘_ _ _CE.'” She could not solve it as “Frozen Orange Juice,” losing out on an extra $40,000. On Wednesday, the dry spell continued for Adam, unable to figure out the “What Are You Wearing” puzzle, which read as “‘M_’ ‘F_N_ _’ ‘_LOTHE_’ was “My Fancy Clothes.” He got stuck on the middle word, thinking it was “Funky,” which cost him an extra $40,000.

It is an honor to present him with the 2025 Carol Burnett Award to celebrate the tremendous impact he has made and continues to make in television.”

Danson will be honored alongside this year’s Cecil B.

Uh-oh, it’s beginning to look like Hana (Keisha Castle-Hughes) maybe shouldn’t trust her boyfriend, Ethan (Michael Raymond-James), on FBI: Most Wanted. Just look at TV Insider’s exclusive sneak peek of the December 3 episode as the FBI agent and Air Marshal cozy up on the couch. The good news? Ethan’s dog loves Hana—which makes sense, given how much time she’s spending with him. “I know I’ve bene Mia lately, but I do have a special night planned for us this week,” Ethan tells her. “I got us tickets to the Rockettes’ Christmas Spectacular at Radio City. I know it’s corny.” But Hana is all for it. “I love corny. I actually love Christmas—especially if it’s with you,” she says. The two share a cute moment before his dog interrupts.

When they said “the more, the merrier,” they definitely didn’t have this in mind. In Our Little Secret (now available on Netflix), Lindsay Lohan finds herself trapped in exactly the type of holiday getaway she was hoping to avoid: a week with her ex-boyfriend Logan, played by Pretty Little Liars alum Ian Harding. The bickering duo will have to learn to live with each other when they discover an unfortunate conundrum that forces them to spend Christmas together. So, what’s that little secret?

“The movie is about a girl who’s dating someone, and she goes to meet his family for the holidays,” Lohan tells Tudum. “Then she bumps into her ex, who is dating her boyfriend’s sister. And all kinds of stuff breaks loose.”

The Emmy winner — known for his turns in Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, Zola, and Fear the Walking Dead — is particularly attuned to the topic. The Madness, his new thriller now streaming on Netflix, follows a media pundit caught in a deadly conspiracy.
