Release date of Korean drama ‘Good Boy' announced
'Good Boy' will be streamed on Prime Video from May 31.
Fresh off the success of When Life Gives You Tangerines, Park Bo-gum 'transforms into a different but still lovable character, Yun Dong-ju. Named after a noble Korean poet, Dong-ju lives a life contrary to the name given to him, always getting involved in fist fights during his school years. Through his experiences in fighting, Dong-ju learns proper boxing, beginning a successful career as a boxer and ultimately winning a gold medal. Unfortunately, Dong-ju's glorious moment is shattered by his unfair expulsion from his boxing team. A new beginning starts for Dong-ju when he is able to become a police officer through a special recruitment opportunity. However, his journey as a policeman doesn't turn out to be as smooth as his career as a boxer. Nevertheless, Dong-ju is absolutely smitten when he stumbles upon the beautiful Ji Han-na through work.'
Kim So-hyun channels a medalist turned police officer, Ji Han-na. Since middle school, 'Han-na was a shooting prodigy, dominating world championships with her precise aim and was adored by many fans. However, after gaining a bigger fan base, she also drew attention from less well-intentioned groups. Criticism poured in and misunderstandings piled up, causing Han-na to gradually shut herself off from the world. These difficulties led to her failing to concentrate at the most crucial moment in her shooting career. Eventually, a stress-induced condition and dizziness forced her to retire from her once-promising shooting career. She then applied for special police recruitment, with dreams of becoming a police officer like her father. Han-na is happy to finally be assigned to the special team, despite having the overly enamoured Dong-ju and her ex-boyfriend Jong-hyeon as teammates.'
Lee Sang-yi portrays silver medalist Kim Jong-hyeon.
'Good Boy' is directed by Sim Na-yeon, who is known for hit series Beyond Evil and The Good Bad Mother. The series is written by Lee Dae-il, who wrote Life on Mars and Bring It On, Ghost. (ANI)

Malone also twisted his ankle in one of the holes on his stage during his Atlanta concert. "There's little holes in the middle of the stage where fire comes out of, which is pretty.. badass, but I just twisted up my ankle a little bit on that hole there," he said in one clip taken during the concert. "So if my dance moves aren't 100%, you've gotta forgive me tonight, ladies and gentlemen. I'mma do my best," according to People.

Priyanka Chopra Posts Goofy BTS Moments From Heads of State Sets, Clicks A Pic With John Cena, Idris Elba
Washington : Actress Priyanka Chopra offered her fans a behind-the-scenes glimpse from her upcoming Hollywood film 'Heads of State'. Taking to her Instagram handle, Priyanka shared a video that perfectly captured her journey in 'Heads of State'. Along with Priyanka, the film also stars Idris Elba and WWE superstar John Cena in the lead roles. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Priyanka (@priyankachopra) The 'Fashion' actress treated her fans with the never-before-seen photos from the film 'Heads of State'. It featured the group picture of the movie lead cast, a snap of Priyanka showcasing bruises and several fun moments of the actress with her daughter Malti. The reel captures Priyanka in her element--suited up as MI6 agent Noel Bisset--showcasing her effortless command over high-octane action and her undeniable screen presence. The actress also seems to flex her fit physique as the MI6 agent Noel Bisset in the post. The film is helmed by Ilya Naishuller, the filmmaker behind Hardcore Henry (2015) and Nobody (2021). It is an action-packed comedy about the U.S. President (played by John Cena) and the UK Prime Minister (played by Idris Elba), who must set aside their rivalry to thwart a global conspiracy and save the world -- if they can work together. Carla Gugino, Jack Quaid, Stephen Root, Sarah Niles, Richard Coyle and Paddy Considine also play crucial roles in 'Heads of State'. The trailer received a thumbs-up from the fans. Reacting to the video, a netizen commented, "Woah it looks interesting. "Can't wait for this film," another one wrote. Official synopsis of the film read, "In the action-comedy Heads of State, the UK Prime Minister Sam Clarke (Idris Elba) and U.S. President Will Derringer (John Cena) have a not-so-friendly and very public rivalry that jeopardizes their countries' "special relationship." But when they become the targets of a powerful and ruthless foreign adversary--who proves more than a match for the two leaders' security forces--they are begrudgingly forced to rely on the only two people they can trust: each other. Ultimately allied with the brilliant MI6 agent Noel Bisset (Priyanka Chopra Jonas), they must go on the run and find a way to work together long enough to thwart a global conspiracy that threatens the entire free world." 'Heads of State' will be released on Prime Video on July 2.

Delhi LG Vinai Kumar Saxena Watches Umrao Jaan At Screening, Says THIS
New Delh : Lieutenant Governor of Delhi, Vinai Kumar Saxena, hailed the Rekha starrer 'Umrao Jaan' after watching its remastered version in theatres on Tuesday. Delhi's LG Vinai Kumar Saxena attended the special screening of 'Umrao Jaan' along with its director Muzaffar Ali in Delhi. He was welcomed by the director at the screening of the remastered version of the film. Before watching the movie, Delhi's LG addressed the viewers and said that he has watched Umrao Jaan countless times due to its direction, story, songs and lyrics. Vinai Kumar Saxena praised Umrao Jaan after the screening, calling it a "unique" film which is difficult for filmmakers to make in today's time. "Umrao Jaan, which was made 44 years ago by Muzaffar Ali, has become such a unique film that it is very difficult to make it in today's time. This is the film in which every character has played a role. Music, lyrics, direction, everything is unique in this film," said Vinai Kumar Saxena. LG also labelled 'Umrao Jaan' as a career breakthrough film of Rekha. He said, "If I say this, it won't be wrong to say that Rekha became Rekha from this film. If it weren't for this film, Rekha wouldn't have been Rekha. I am sure that this film will become a milestone in the future, which will be remembered forever in the Mumbai film industry." Rekha won the National Award for her impeccable performance in the film as a courtesan-poetess in 19th-century Lucknow. Her graceful dance performance on 'Dil Cheez Kya Hai' is still admired and remembered by filmophiles. On the sidelines of the event, director Muzaffar Ali called 'Umrao Jaan' "timeless" and "ageless". While talking to ANI, he said, "I think the movie is timeless, it's ageless, it was meant for a time 150 years ago. So, it was meant to be a period film, and it has been true to the period. It is still vibrant and alive as that period would have been. So, that way, the film is, for me, full of nostalgia, full of memories, details and hard work." Director Ali also shared that he is willing to take the Umrao Jaan to the festivals and OTT platforms. "I think we'll take it to a festival route and then it will come to the OTT," said Muzaffar Ali. 'Umrao Jaan' is a classic Indian period drama that has been adapted into two film versions. The 1981 version, starring Rekha, is a cult classic and won four National Awards. The 2006 version, starring Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, was not well received by the audience. Both films are based on Mirza Hadi Ruswa's novel Umrao Jaan Ada. It was re-released in theatres on June 27.
