Fans of the Netflix fantasy series The Witcher should be filled with glee right now. After all, the world's biggest streaming service has axed a lot of fantasy shows in the last few years, including well-received ones like Shadow & Bone and Warrior Nun.
But The Witcher proved too popular to purge, due in part to the massive star appeal of Henry Cavill as the lead character, monster hunter Geralt of Rivia. And while fans of other fantasy shows are mourning their cancellations, The Witcher has been confirmed for two more seasons.
But its fans are more nervous than excited.
Cavill Out, Hemsworth In
In spite of his leading-man Hollywood cred, Henry Cavill is a self-proclaimed fantasy nerd. He campaigned hard for the role of Geralt and was open about his passion for the story. But creative differences soon caused friction on set, especially as the storyline of The Witcher...

Getting the role of James Bond is one of the most popular aspirations among actors and a great milestone for those select few who succeed. Pierce Brosnan is widely known as the fifth Agent 007 star who portrayed the iconic superspy in four movies before Daniel Craig took over. With that, Brosnan’s spy career could have ended.
But as Hollywood can’t stop telling us in every espionage-focused movie, there’s no such thing as a retired spy, and Pierce Brosnan is now back in this dangerous game.
Warrior Nun’s Creator Goes Spy Boss
Simon Barry is famous for creating Netflix’s Warrior Nun: an immensely popular TV show that got canceled for no good reason, then saved thanks to fans and turned into movies, making news before turning out to be a complete disaster. Having lost his franchise — again, for no good reason — Simon Barry is ready to move on.

With all the questions surrounding the next James Bond, Pierce Brosnan has given all of the two cents that he could. He’s dusted off inquiries and given his advice to the possible next actor, straight from his own experience of filling in the tux of the famous Ian Fleming 007 agent. While rumors still run rampant about Aaron Taylor-Johnson being courted for the role, no announcement has been made. However, Brosnan did give his approval of him for the role, saying, “I think the man has the chops and the talent and the charisma to play Bond, very much so.”
Brosnan himself is set to pick up a new dossier outlining his next mission. According to Deadline, the former MI6 agent has signed on to be in the new romantic thriller A Spy’s Guide to Survival, which comes from Uri Singer’s Passage Pictures. A Spy’s Guide to...

Chris Evans became a globally loved movie star after his Marvel role as Captain America. The actor played the super soldier in the film trilogy based on the character and also reprised his role in Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame.
Despite the 42-year-old actor’s key role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), it’s his co-star Robert Downey Jr. who is often credited for the meteoric success of MCU. Thanks to the Oscar winner’s laudable portrayal of Iron Man, he became the “Face of MCU” in many ways. However, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige once weighed in on Evans’ contribution to the MCU, noting how fans can often overlook the Captain America: Civil War star’s role in the company’s success.

Black Widow's track record in the Marvel Cinematic Universe hasn't always been flawless. The highs ("Captain America: The Winter Soldier") were certainly high, but the lows ("Avengers: Age of Ultron") were just as low. Still, the operative otherwise known as Natasha Romanoff was always the McU's secret weapon. She practically ran away with every film she appeared in, and for a large part of the franchise's initial run, she was one of the few female characters making a consistent impact. But as Johansson continued to turn in solid supporting performances, it was hard to ignore the fact that she'd yet to get a chance to stand on her own.
By the time Marvel finally delivered a solo Black Widow project, it felt like way too little, too late. "Black Widow" found itself somewhere in the middle of the franchise's 15-year output: it did its title character justice, in a way,...

Jared Harris, Joseph Fiennes & Sheila Atim Leading A+E/Sky’s ‘Royal Kill List’
Jared Harris, Joseph Fiennes and Sheila Atim are leading an A+E Networks/Sky series about King Charles I from Jimmy Savile: A British Horror Story producer 72 Films. Royal Kill List is Sky History’s latest docu-drama following in the footsteps of the likes of Royal Bastards: Rise of The Tudors and The Royal Mob. The three-part series looks back at one of the most seismic events in British royal history. In 1649, for the first and only time, a British monarch was publicly executed, having been tried and convicted of treason by Parliament. This bloody spectacle heralded 10 years of Britain as a republic before, in May 1660, the monarchy was restored with the accession of King Charles II.

You're no doubt familiar with the proverb, "The more things change, the more they stay the same." Well, that also extends to the way TV shows live and die.
For years now, streamers like Netflix have abruptly released shows with little to no promotion and then canceled them just as swiftly when they (miraculously!) fail to attract an audience. Or, if not that, they cut down a series still very much in the prime of its life for reasons that only their all-mighty algorithms can fathom. Sometimes they come back from the dead (like "Warrior Nun") or they find a new home (as "Star Trek: Prodigy" did), but otherwise, these shows tend to stay deader than a doornail.
These companies' goal, you see, is not to create sustainable hits; it's to inflate their value in the eyes of their shareholders. This problem isn't unique to streaming, either. Back in the aughts,...

With the streaming bubble bursting and entertainment companies retooling their vision for the future of television, it seems like every new day yields a polarizing series cancellation. From viewership stats to marketing pitfalls and budgetary concerns, TV series are seeing the plug pulled at a seemingly faster rate than ever before — in some cases, after production has been completed and even before they’ve had a chance to air.
For example, after outcry over recently canned series like “1899,” “First Kill” and “Warrior Nun,” Netflix’s new co-ceos Ted Sarandos and Greg Peters said they have never canceled a “successful show.” Platforms like AMC, Starz, Showtime and HBO Max have pulled shows despite having the majority of filming finished or nearly done so. And for Hulu, journalists and audiences raised disappointment following the cancellation of “Reboot.”

This is Day 144 of the WGA strike and Day 71 of the SAG-AFTRA strike.
There was a giddy feeling on the picket lines in LA today after huge numbers of writers turned out in what could be one of the last days of WGA picketing.
As Bob Iger, Donna Langley, Ted Sarandos and David Zaslav and co. enter their third consecutive day of negotiations with the WGA leadership in Sherman Oaks, hundreds of writers came out in a massive show of solidarity.
After last night’s marathon sessions, there was real optimism in the air, countered by some realism, that a deal could be reached today.
In fact, one of the reasons the picket lines, which were extended from their traditional end of 12pm to 2pm, were so busy were the rumors that started last night. A deal was going to happen at 6pm. This morning, notes were being frantically exchanged promising a 2pm announcement.

Back in December, it was announced that Warrior Nun, a live-action series loosely based on Ben Dunn’s manga-style comic book Warrior Nun Areala, had been cancelled after a two season run on the Netflix streaming service.

A fan campaign to save a Netflix show actually worked: according to The Hollywood Reporter, the previously canceled 2020 series "Warrior Nun" is set to be resurrected with three feature films. This news comes just weeks after series creator Simon Barry teased some type of return for the fantasy story, though THR reports that he noted it won't come from Netflix. "Warrior Nun" follows a young woman who wakes up after dying with new abilities that land her in the middle of an ongoing battle between heaven and hell. In a new video posted to the website Warrior Nun Saved, executive producer Dean English noted that the trilogy could also launch a "Warrior Nun" universe, which he says "could expand into film and TV series following characters that we already know."

All eyes were on Henry Cavill as his final season of “The Witcher” premiered Thursday on Netflix.
“There is certainly a poignancy to it, yes,” Joey Batey, his “Witcher” costar, told TheWrap in the lead-up to Season 3’s premiere. Anya Chalotra added that she is “definitely going to feel that loss.”
The new season is divided into two parts, with the second volume streaming later in July. Speaking with TheWrap, the cast recalled a lot of sadness connected to the scenes that were filmed for Volume 2, knowing they were the last of Cavill’s Geralt.
“The character of Geralt — I’m not going to give too much away — is very much in a very compromised situation.
