Jack Reynor to Star Opposite Rachel Brosnahan in PRESUMED INNOCENT Season 2 — GeekTyrant

Geek Tyrant2 days ago
Jack Reynor (Midsommar, Lee Cronin's The Mummy) is joining the second season of Apple TV+'s Presumed Innocent, in which he will star opposite Rachel Brosnahan (Superman). Season 1 of the series was based on Scott Turow's 1987 bestselling novel, which was also adapted into a Harrison Ford 1990 movie, and season 2 is based on Jo Murray's debut legal thriller Dissection of a Murder, which is set to hit shelves in 2026.
While Apple has the logline under wraps, the Pan Macmillan blurb for Dissection of a Murder reads 'When Leila Reynolds is handed her first murder case, she's shocked at how high-profile it is: the murder of a well-respected, well-known judge. This shouldn't be the kind of case she's leading; it's way beyond her expertise. But the defendant, Jack Millman, is clear. He wants her, and only her.'
Reynor is also starring in the next season of Amazon series Citadel, and is reteaming for the fourth time with filmmaker John Carney on his next movie, Power Ballad. Reynor has appeared in leading roles in Transformers: Age of Extinction and Carney's Sing Street. Last year he was part of the ensemble cast of Netflix's hit show The Perfect Couple.

Nancy Meyers shades 'The Holiday 'series in the works at Apple TV+: 'News to me'

"Imagine my surprise when I opened Instagram and this was the first post I saw," the filmmaker said of the project's points The Holiday is receiving a limited series at Apple TV+. Nancy Meyers, the writer/director behind the original 2006 movie, shaded the announcement of the project on Instagram. Meyers previously shot down rumors that a sequel to the movie was in the works with Cameron Diaz and Kate Holiday is getting a TV series — but Nancy Meyers doesn't sound too happy about it. The filmmaker, who wrote and directed the 2006 Christmas rom-com of the same name, reacted to the announcement that Apple TV+ is adapting her movie into a limited series. "News to me," Meyers wrote in an Instagram Story atop a screenshot of a Hollywood Reporter post about the TV show. "Imagine my surprise when I opened Instagram and this was the first post I saw. 🤔" The Holiday limited series on Apple TV+ will be written and executive produced by Krissie Ducker (Sweetpea) and will see input from Rob Delaney (Catastrophe) as a consultant, Entertainment Weekly has learned. Deadline first reported the news, noting that Meyers has no involvement in the project, and that well-known actresses are being considered for the lead roles. Meyers' The Holiday starred Cameron Diaz as a workaholic movie trailer editor in Los Angeles and Kate Winslet as a London journalist pining after her ex-slash-coworker. The two women spontaneously decide to do a house swap and each fall in love with a local across the pond. Diaz is paired up with Jude Law, who played Winslet's character's brother, while Winslet couples with Jack Black, a charismatic musician. The original Holiday grossed over $200 million at the global box office, making it Meyers' fourth-biggest hit as a director (behind What Women Want, Something's Gotta Give, and It's Complicated). The Holiday has maintained a sizable following since its original release, as its Christmastime setting has inspired consistent wintertime rewatches among rom-com fans. However, despite the film's continued popularity, Meyers confirmed that she has no plans to revisit the movie in 2022. The filmmaker shot down rumors that Diaz and Winslet had boarded a sequel in an Instagram post. "So many DM's about this. Sorry but it's not true," Meyers wrote in a caption of a Daily Mail screenshot claiming that the original cast would return for a sequel. The director also recently revealed that she didn't expect the film to become a Christmas classic. "I never thought it would be, you know, a movie that you watched during the holidays.... Didn't think of it that way," she told the Hollywood Gold podcast. "I just really wanted to tell the story about these people. I set it at Christmas because that can be lonely. As I noted to myself last night while I was watching, they're all damaged."Meyers has not directed a film since 2015's The Intern. She attempted to helm a new project, tentatively titled Paris Paramount, for Netflix, but the project stalled after disagreements on the budget. Scarlett Johansson, Owen Wilson, Penélope Cruz, and Michael Fassbender were all reportedly in talks to star in the film. Read the original article on Entertainment Weekly

The Gilded Age Season 4: Cast, Release Date, and Latest News

Karolina Wojtasik/HBO The Gilded Age is hitting its stride in season three, so why not go for the gold? On July 28, the head of HBO's drama series and films department confirmed the fourth season while praising Downton Abbey's Julian Fellowes for creating another prime example of ''can't-miss it' entertainment," this time set in 1880s New York and starring the likes of Carrie Coon, Christine Baranski, Audra McDonald, and Cynthia Nixon. According to Variety, The Gilded Age continues to break its own viewership records—and fans aren't the only ones on the edge of their seats. "We're delighted to continue exploring these characters' grand ambitions for what we promise will be a thrilling fourth season,' HBO's Francesca Orsi said in their statement. As we patiently await the season three finale, here's everything we know about The Gilded Age season four. When will The Gilded Age season four air? No timeline has been announced as we're still deep in the throes of season three, which will come to a close on August 10. While the first two seasons aired in fall-winter months of 2022 and 2023, season three began airing in June 2025. It's possible HBO will try to capitalize on this season's viewership success by sticking to a summer release, depending on the production schedule. Who will star in season four? Of course, there's no word yet on who will or will not be returning. The Gilded Age currently stars a host of legendary actors, from those previously mentioned to Donna Murphy and Debra Monk. Season three also introduced Phylicia Rashad as Brian Stokes, who will hopefully continue to grace our screens in season four as Elizabeth and Frederick Kirkland. As for the younger generation of actors, Meryl Streep's youngest daughter Louisa Jacobson continues to portray Marian Brook, the orphaned niece of Ada Forte (Nixon) and Agnes van Rhijn (Baranski). Denée Benton plays Peggy Scott, the daughter of Audra McDonald's Dorothy Scott. New Here How *The Gilded Age*'s Denée Benton Made Sure Peggy Scott's Story Was Told Right The Broadway vet opens up about changes she advocated for on the set of the new HBO series. The rest of the cast includes Morgan Spector, Taissa Farmiga, Harry Richardson, Blake Ritson, Ben Ahlers, Ashlie Atkinson, Dylan Baker, Kate Baldwin, Victoria Clark, John Ellison Conlee, Michael Cumpsty, Kelley Curran, Jordan Donica, Jessica Frances Dukes, Claybourne Elder, Amy Forsyth, Jack Gilpin, LisaGay Hamilton, Ward Horton, Simon Jones, Sullivan Jones, Celia Keenan-Bolger, Ben Lamb, Nathan Lane, Andrea Martin, Hattie Morahan, Kristine Nielsen, Paul Alexander Nolan, Kelli O'Hara, Patrick Page, Rachel Pickup, Taylor Richardson, Douglas Sills, Bobby Steggert, Erin Wilhelmi, John Douglas Thompson, Leslie Uggams, Merritt Wever, and Bill Camp. Wait, wait, wait…don't skip past Gladys Russell so fast! Of course, one of the biggest shocks of season three centered around Gladys Russell (Taissa Farmiga), who was married off to the Duke of Buckingham (Ben Lamb) by her mother, Bertha (Carrie Coon) and father George (Morgan Spector). This left fans devastated for Gladys, who was betrayed and abandoned by everyone meant to care for her, including the man she wanted to marry for love, Billy Carlton (Matt Walker). That left Bertha and Gladys on very shaky ground, though the mother-daughter duo later joined forces to assert the new duchess' dominance over Sidmouth Castle. Still, how much of season four can possibly take place in England? It's not like we've seen much of Daphne Bridgerton since she married her Duke at the end of Bridgerton season they didn't even leave the continent! For now, we'll just have to wait and see how the rest of season three shakes out. The Gilded Age season three finale airs on August 10 at 9:00 p.m. ET on HBO and HBO Max. This post will be updated from there.
