Nicole Kidman to Star in TV Series "Girls and Their Horses"
Nicole Kidman is set to star in and executive produce a series adaptation of the Eliza Jane Brazier novel 'Girls and Their Horses'.
The project is currently in development and will be co-produced by Legendary Television and Amazon MGM Studios for Prime Video.
Brazier will write the pilot and executive produce. Jenna Lamia will serve as showrunner and executive producer.
Kidman will executive produce along with Per Saari under their Blossom Films banner.
'Girls and Their Horses' marks a reunion for Kidman and Lamia.
Lamia previously developed and showran the hit Netflix series 'The Perfect Couple,' based on the novel by Elin Hilderbrand, in which Kidman starred and executive produced.
The official logline for 'Girls and Their Horses' reads, 'A murder-mystery set in the beachside equestrian community of Rancho Santa Fe, California, 'Girls and Their Horses' follows the newly wealthy Parker family as they aim to position their teenage daughters in the rarified, sometimes-deadly world of competitive horse riding.'
Should it move forward, this would mark the latest series role for Kidman, who has quickly become the hardest working actress in television.
In addition to 'The Perfect Couple,' she has starred in the shows 'Big Little Lies,' 'Top of the Lake: China Girl,' 'The Undoing,' 'Nine Perfect Strangers,' 'Lioness,' and 'Expats' since 2017.
The second season of 'Nine Perfect Strangers' recently debuted, while Kidman is also attached to star in the shows 'Scarpetta' at Prime Video and 'Margo's Got Money Troubles' at Apple TV+.
She also has a stellar film career, for which she has received five Oscar nominations with one win. Her recent film credits include 'The Northman,' 'Babygirl,' 'A Family Affair,' and 'Being the Ricardos.'
In addition to 'Girls and Their Horses,' Brazier is also the author of the books 'If I Disappear' and 'Good Rich People,' both of which she is currently adapting for TV.
The former is set up at 20th Television, while the latter is at MRC. She is also working on a feature screenplay based on her novel 'It Had to Be You' at Sony.
This is the latest collaboration between Legendary TV and Amazon MGM Studios in recent weeks.
It was reported back in April that Legendary's 'Pacific Rim' TV series is now set up at Amazon, while the two studios, along with Pacesetter Productions, have struck a deal to develop a series based G. T. Karber's murder mystery puzzles 'Murdle.'

Jo Yu-ri and Son Ye-jin Team Up for Netflix K-Pop Drama "Variety"
Yara Sameh Netflix is doubling down on its Korean content with 'Variety,' a new series that pairs A-list talent Son Ye-jin with rising star Jo Yu-ri in a drama set in the world of K-pop. The casting represents a savvy move by the streamer, combining the proven global appeal of 'Crash Landing on You' veteran Son Ye-jin with Jo Yu-ri, whose breakout role as player 222 in 'Squid Game' Seasons 2 and 3 positions her as one of Korea's most promising young actors. Behind the camera, Netflix is betting on Kim Yong-hoon, whose 'Mask Girl' became a hit for the platform, spending four weeks in the Global Top 10 Non-English TV rankings and claiming the No. 1 spot in its second week. Known for his signature visual style and masterful tension-building in crime stories, Kim now turns his lens to the glamorous yet cutthroat world of K-Pop, exploring the fierce desires and ambitions that drive it. The series aims to examine the complex dynamics between industry executives and fans. Son Ye-jin's Se-eun, a top entertainment executive fighting to revive a struggling idol group, reflects the high-stakes nature of Korea's entertainment business. Meanwhile, Jo Yu-ri's Seung-hui — an obsessive fan — allows the former Iz*One member to explore the fan-idol dynamic from a perspective she knows intimately. Jo Yu-ri's casting is particularly noteworthy given her unique position as both a former K-pop idol and emerging dramatic actor. Her transition from the music industry to Netflix's prestige content slate mirrors the broader evolution of Korean entertainment, where boundaries between different media sectors continue to blur. The project reunites Netflix with powerhouse production partners CJ ENM Studios and UNU, part of the streamer's ongoing investment in Korean content that has paid massive dividends following the global success of originals like 'Squid Game' and 'Kingdom,' as well as internationally distributed hits like 'Crash Landing on You.' For Son Ye-jin, 'Variety' represents another strategic Netflix partnership as she continues to build her post-'Crash Landing on You' career. The actor is also attached to Park Chan-wook's 'No Other Choice' and Netflix's period drama 'Scandals,' positioning her as one of Korea's most in-demand talents across both film and streaming platforms. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks

Charli XCX Marries 1975's George Daniel in Intamite London Wedding
Yara Sameh Charli XCX and The 1975's George Daniel tied the knot in London on Saturday. Video footage shared on X captures the 32-year-old pop star, who donned a stunning wedding dress, and the 35-year-old drummer celebrating outside Hackney Town Hall, surrounded by close family and friends. For the occasion, the "Brat" hitmaker wore a white, off-the-shoulder silk gown in a shorter style rather than a traditional long dress. She styled her long hair down and completed the look with a flowing white veil. Daniel was dressed in a dark double-breasted suit paired with a light collared shirt. According to TMZ, the ceremony was an intimate affair with around 20 close family members and friends in attendance. Daniel's bandmates from The 1975 were reportedly present, except frontman Matty Healy. Charli XCX and Daniel began dating in 2022 and announced their engagement a year later. The couple made their relationship Instagram official in May 2022, following their collaboration on Charli's 2022 album, "Crash". Daniel also contributed production on tracks including 'In the City,' her duet with Sam Smith, and 'Hot Girl' for the "Bodies Bodies Bodies" soundtrack. The pop star took last summer by storm with the release of her sixth album, "Brat," her highest-charting album to date. From its meme-worthy lime-green cover to its surprising role in the 2024 U.S. presidential race, the project propelled her from cult favorite to bona fide pop A-lister. Following a successful tour in support of "Brat", Charli XCX has shifted her focus to onscreen opportunities, including a film she conceptualized for A24 titled "The Moment". She also recently lined up a gig to star in and produce the next movie from Japanese horror director Takashi Mike (Yakuza Apocalypse). read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs
