Netflix sci-fi series will be its final one, following Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown), Steve (Joe Keery), Hopper (David Harbour) and the rest of the gang as they try to save the world once and for all and defeat the sinister Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower) and the forces of the Upside Down. On Aug. 25, the “Stranger Things” writers tweeted a photo of a whiteboard, captioned “Grid stage.” It showed boxes with eight columns, which implies the final season will have eight episodes — making it shorter than Seasons 2 and 4, which both had nine episodes.

Brian Steinberg Senior TV Editor The new team at NBC’s “Football Night in America” has yet to work a “Sunday Night Football” game in this year’s official NFL season, but they’ve already weathered at least one storm. During NBC’s broadcast of the 2022 Hall of Fame Game last month, Jason Garrett, the former Dallas Cowboys head coach who is still relatively new to the art of TV sportscasting, got a bulletin in his ear courtesy of producer Matt Casey. “Looks like we have a rain delay,” Garrett recalls being told. “You guys are going to have to fill for half an hour.” Garrett, who has been working NBC’s USFL broadcasts to warm up for his new stint on “Football Night,” took a moment to collect himself: “Oh, this is interesting.”

The first trailer for Armageddon Time has been released!

Michaela Zee editor James Gray is reminiscing about his childhood in Queens in the first trailer for his semi-autobiographical film “Armageddon Time.” Inspired by the director’s upbringing in 1980s Queens, the film loosely follows Gray’s experiences as a student at the Kew-Forest School in New York City — where Donald Trump also attended. Starring newcomer Banks Repeta as Paul Graff, “Armageddon Time” also includes Jeremy Strong and Anne Hathaway as Paul’s parents Irving and Esther, and Anthony Hopkins as his grandfather. Additional cast members include Jaylin Webb, Ryan Sell, Tovah Feldshuh and John Diehl as Fred Trump. In May, Hathaway and Gray broke into tears as the film received a seven-minute standing ovation following its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival. Viewers were also surprised to see Jessica Chastain appear in a small cameo as Donald Trump’s sister, Maryanne.

Jeremy Strong found his New Yorker profile to be a "pretty profound betrayal of trust". The 43-year-old actor discussed the lengths he goes to with his intense approach to his job in an interview last year and he admitted he felt "foolish" when the piece sparked scrutiny around the world. Asked how he felt about it, he told Vanity Fair magazine: "What do I say about it? It was something that, for me, felt like a pretty profound betrayal of trust.

Jeremy Strong has finally broken his silence on that infamous 2021 New Yorker profile.

“On Succession, Jeremy Strong Doesn’t Get the Joke” quickly became one of the magazine’s top stories of the year upon its Dec. 7 publication. Reactions to the lengthy piece, which detailed his hard-earned career and intense relationship to acting, were polarizing: while many readers got a kick out of his eccentric, hyper-serious depiction, others lambasted the profile as a “classist” personal attack.

Jeremy Strong has won accolades and awards for his performance of ambitious scion Kendall Roy in HBO’s “Succession”, but took some heat from a December 2021 profile in The New Yorker that painted an unflattering depiction of his method-style acting.

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic “Tár,” written and directed by Todd Field, tells the story of a world-famous symphony orchestra conductor played by Cate Blanchett, and let me say right up front: It’s the work of a master filmmaker. That’s not a total surprise. Field has made only two previous films, and the first of them, the domestic revenge drama “In the Bedroom” (2001), was languorous and lacerating — a small, compact indie-world explosion. His second feature, “Little Children” (2006), was, in my opinion, a misfire, though his talent was all over it. But “Tár,” the first film he has made in 16 years, takes Todd Field to a new level. The movie is breathtaking — in its drama, its high-crafted innovation, its vision. It’s a ruthless but intimate tale of art, lust, obsession, and power. It’s set in the contemporary classical-music world, and if that sounds a bit high-toned (it is, in a good way), the movie leads us through that world in a manner that’s so rigorously precise and authentic and detailed that it generates the immersion of a thriller. The characters in “Tár” feel as real as life. (They’re acted to richly drawn perfection down to the smallest role.) You believe, at every moment, in the reality you’re seeing, and it’s extraordinary how that raises the stakes.
