conversation on the “Bingeworthy” podcast, Kurtzman — who is now helming Showtime’s sci-fi series “The Man Who Fell to Earth” — reflected on the critical and commercial disaster, which was originally set to launch Universal’s cinematic Dark Universe. While he is set to produce a slew of films — including “Now You See Me 3,” “Van Helsing” and several untitled classic projects about Dracula, Frankenstein and the Hunchback of Notre Dame — he hasn’t directed a feature since 2017.“I tend to subscribe to the point of view that you learn nothing from your successes, and you learn everything from your failures,” Kurtzman said.

Joyce’s publication may have been a hard sell at first — but Minx‘s pilot was anything but. The new HBO Max series, which was written by Ellen Lapoport, is making a buzz thanks to Ophelia Lovibond‘s determined Joyce and the sleazy-yet-endearing publisher Doug, played by Jake Johnson, who takes a chance on her.

Natalie Oganesyan editorWhen “New Girl” first premiered on Fox in 2011, it became an instant hit, reaching more than 10 million viewers with its pilot episode alone. But its commercial, and later critical, success didn’t stop the screwball comedy from growing and finding ingenious, if lovably preposterous, ways to bestow nuance onto its characters.In fact, the Emmy-nominated series remained steadfast in its commitment to audiences and characters alike.

By If you were disappointed by the lack of actual sex on , there's a new HBO Max series that has you covered (and then some): Enter Minx, a fast-paced, thought-inducing, feminist, erotic comedy that stars Ophelia Lovibond opposite .Over the course of 10 episodes—two of which are available today, March 17—you'll dive into the polyester-clad world of the 1970s where Joyce (Lovibond) is determined to create a women's magazine that isn't about pleasing a man or losing five pounds. She struggles to get it off the ground, until an interesting meet-cute with low-rent porn magazine publisher Doug (Johnson).

Minx, out now, Johnson plays a seedy publisher who teams up with an ambitious, yet somewhat prudish feminist (Ophelia Lovibond) to create a porn magazine for the female gaze in the '70s. Doug is garish, smug, abrasive and, by god, you just can't help but root for him.
