Madonna Drops Album "Veronica Electronica": Stream It Now
Yara Sameh "Veronica Electronica" has finally entered the zone. After 27 years, Madonna's long-rumored "Ray of Light" remix album became a reality on Friday. The project features rare and unreleased edits of songs from her 1998 masterpiece. Remixers on the project include "Ray of Light" co-creator William Orbit and clubs kings Peter Rauhofer, Sasha, BT and Victor Calderone. It also includes the original demo of 'Gone, Gone, Gone,' a previously unreleased recording co-produced by Madonna and Rick Nowels, who co-wrote several Ray of Light tracks alongside her in the late '90s. The rest of the tracklist includes 'Drowned World/Substitute For Love,' 'Ray Of Light,' 'Skin,' 'Nothing Really Matters,' 'Sky Fits Heaven,' 'Frozen,' and 'The Power Of Good-Bye.' Released in February of 1998, "Ray of Light" remained 78 weeks on the Billboard 200, peaking at No. 2. (The Titanic soundtrack hindered it from achieving the top spot.) The record generated four Hot 100 hits with the title track, 'Frozen,' 'The Power of Goodbye' and 'Nothing Really Matters' and won four Grammy awards, including the trophy for best pop album, in 1999. "Ray of Light" was a major moment for electronic music's mainstream crossover, with Madonna being the first major pop artist to do an entirely electronic album and thus helping push '90s club culture onto radio and into pop culture. While "Veronica Electronica" was originally intended to be a remix companion to "Ray of Light," it was shelved due to the success of the album, which ultimately sold more than 16 million copies. Stream "Veronica Electronica" below. 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 Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks

"Wolfenstein" TV Series in Works
Yara Sameh A TV series adaptation of the 'Wolfenstein' video games is in development at Amazon MGM Studios. While the exact plot details are being kept under wraps, the official logline of the series simply states, 'The story of killing Nazis is evergreen.' Patrick Somerville is attached to serve as the creator, writer, executive producer, and showrunner on the project under his production banner. Jonah Nolan, Lisa Joy, and Athena Wickham will executive produce via Kilter Films. James Altman of Keyframe Films and Jerk Gustafsson of 'Wolfenstein' developer MachineGames will also executive produce. The 'Wolfenstein' franchise helped popularize first-person shooter video games. It have largely centered on U.S. World War II solider William 'B.J.' Blazkowicz. In the games, Blazkowicz goes behind enemy lines to fight the Nazis, only to discover they are engaging in bizarre experiments and the occult in an attempt to tip the scales of the war in their favor. The first game in the franchise, 'Castle Wolfenstein,' was released in 1981. It and the 1984 sequel, 'Beyond Castle Wolfenstein,' were top-down perspective games. Starting with 'Wolfenstein 3D' in 1992, the games shifted to first-person shooters. There are 14 games in the 'Wolfenstein' series in total, with the most recent being the VR game 'Wolfenstein: Cyberpilot.' The games are currently developed by MachineGames and published by Bethesda Softworks. It was previously announced that a film version of the games was in the works back in 2012, but it never moved forward. Should this project move forward, it would be the latest video game TV series at Amazon for Kilter Films. The company currently produces the hit Prime Video series 'Fallout,' which is currently prepping to release its second season in December and has already been renewed for a third. In addition, Kilter has partnered with Michael B. Jordan's Outlier Society to produce the TV adaptation of Rebecca Yarros' adult fantasy novel 'Fourth Wing' for Amazon. The company is also known for producing 'The Peripheral' starring Chloe Grace Moretz for Amazon as well as for the hit series 'Westworld' at HBO and 'Person of Interest' at CBS. Amazon has multiple other projects in development based on games. Those include a 'Mass Effect' TV series, a 'God of War' series (which originally got greenlit in 2022), and a series based on the tabletop wargame 'Warhammer 40,000' starring Henry Cavill. 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 Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks
