Starz Showbiz and Celebrity Breaking News

Typically, when we discuss TV show revivals, such as the most recent “Dexter” return, the show is something that has a devoted fanbase and ran for at least four or five seasons. Well, then you look at “Party Down,” which is getting a revival, more than a decade after its final episode, and it only has two seasons (20 episodes total).

If there’s one franchise that seems to be universally beloved amongst action fans right now, it’s Chad Stahelski’s “John Wick.” Partially, people just love Keanu Reeves, who is carrying the load in the franchise, but also it’s because the action is so amazing and interesting, you could watch John Wick murder guys for two hours with no problems. But now, the “John Wick” franchise is spinning off and without Reeves, there’s a new star in the cast—Mel Gibson.

Today out of New York Comic Con 2021 (NYCC), Starz released the new teaser trailer for “Outlander” season six. “Outlander” cast members including Caitriona Balfe, Sophie Skelton, Lauren Lyle, César Domboy, and John Bell joined the panel virtually from Europe while Sam Heughan, Executive Producer Maril Davis and Outlander author Diana Gabaldon were in person to discuss the upcoming season.

50 Cent had the rights to the BMF story and he could do whatever he wanted with it – a movie or a TV series,” Flenory Jr., 21, told The Post. “The first casting was in Atlanta, and my dad wanted me to go meet Fifty [Cent] so that I could see how everything was going to work.” There, the rapper/executive producer told Flenory Jr. that he wanted to move him to LA and enroll him in acting classes so that he could star in the “BMF,” airing Sundays at 8 p.m.

With so much content out there vying for eyeballs, Starz can sometimes feel like the forgotten middle child of the streaming wars. Outside of “Outlander” and the “Power” franchise (which also includes “Power Book II: Ghost” and “Power Book III: Raising Kanan”), the outlet hasn’t established much of a presence in the competitive landscape of premium television.

reality series with outlandish premises and the occasional hidden gem-of-a show that gets overlooked. While “The White Lotus,” sports comedy hit “Ted Lasso” and reality dating shows such as “FBoy Island” have been the season’s big talkers, there’s a slew of shows that might have slid under your summer viewing radar. As the dog days of August come to a close, if you haven’t found that perfect watch yet, there’s still some time to check these out. After a two-year hiatus and a network move from

Stephen Amell is now starring in the wrestling drama “Heels.” Premiering Aug. 15 on Starz, the series follows brothers Jack (Amell) and Ace (Alexander Ludwig, “Vikings,”) in the fictional small town of Duffy, Georgia, who have inherited their late father’s pro-wrestling league (called the DWL).

“When you’re in the ring you stick to my script,” Jack Spade (Stephen Amell, “Green Arrow”) reminds his little brother Ace (Alexander Ludwig), the star duo running Atlanta, Georgia’s Duffy Wrestling League (DWL). Ace is a “face,” a.k.a.

Writer Michael Waldron is one busy guy lately. Not only did he lead the writer’s room for “Loki” and the upcoming Starz series “Heels,” but he’s also writing the upcoming “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” and producer Kevin Feige’s upcoming ‘Star Wars‘ project.

Michael Waldron is probably feeling pretty great right about now.

Lionsgate and Starz are expanding the “John Wick” franchise with a three-part event series focused on a young Winston in New York City during the 1970s, and they’ve selected their main director for the project, “The Continental.” READ MORE: ‘John Wick’ Spinoff Series Details: ‘The Continental’ Is A Prequel Focusing On A Young Winston In NYC During The 1970s The global hotel chain acts as neutral ground for assassins and offers various services to its clientele, some work-related and other things

How well can you truly know someone? “The Deceived” tackles its own mysteries surrounding love, loss, and the darkest of thoughts when familiarity is all we have. This series, originally shown in the UK, marks a decidedly different viewpoint into humanity from creator and writer Lisa McGee.

2018’s “Blindspotting” was the kind of movie that created its own viewing experience. That’s about all you need to remember before watching the new “Blindspotting,” the new series premiering on Starz on Saturday, June 13, which doesn’t demand that you rewatch Carlos López Estrada’s movie to remember specific events but recaptures that experience more than anything else.

Even with an uneven release of content the past year thanks to pandemic delays there’s simply too much television for anyone to reasonably watch. And the fact the U.S.

Jamie Dornan and Matthew Rhys … with all their experience that they have, it was overwhelming. But it was such a relaxed experience.

Remember “Blindspotting,” the 2018 comedy-drama indie that launched the careers of actor/writers/producers Daveed Diggs and Rafael Casal? Well, in case you’ve forgotten, the film has been turned into a series by its creators, Diggs and Casal, who have gone onto things like “Snowpiercer,” “Hamilton” (Diggs), and “The Good Lord Bird,” “Bad Education” (Casal), respectively.

STARZ’s “The Girlfriend Experience” continues to evolve and push boundaries in its long-awaited third season, the first episode of which aired last night on the cable channel.

Look, “GLOW” is over at Netflix, and many fans are heartbroken about that, but maybe “Heels,” a new pro-wrestling show over at STARZ, might be able to fill the gap for you. The new original series starring Stephen Amell (“Arrow“) and Alexander Ludwig (“Vikings“) a story about the men and women who pursue their dreams in the world of professional small-town wrestling.

“The Affair,” stars in Season 3 of Steven Soderbergh’s Starz anthology series “The Girlfriend Experience.” Premiering Sunday (May 2) at 8 p.m., the new season follows Iris (Telles), an American student in London who’s working as a neuroscience researcher at a tech startup by day. By night, she works at a mysterious futuristic escort agency.

Who knew that if you needed a sexual awakening, all you had to do is get involved in a terrible, loveless marriage and then move to Tangier? Apparently, while there, you’re going to have your mind blown through sexual exploration and discovery.

The “John Wick” franchise led by actor Keanu Reeves as the titular badass assassin is one of the franchise jewels at Lionsgate as they’re reportedly set to begin shooting “John Wick: Chapter 4” this summer with talk that “John Wick: Chapter 5,” also in the works, that could end up becoming the final film with Reeves.

How far would you go to escape your current life? A young woman faces daunting prospects for leaving her own world behind in “Death and Nightingales.” It’s a story that resonates on several levels, with rebellion, fighting to find your place, and even the burdens of family playing into the drama. The limited series is an adaptation of Eugene McCabe’s 1992 novel.

Much like it was a joke that Christopher Plummer (RIP) was going to be the guy that took over all of the Kevin Spacey roles after that actor was blacklisted following sexual assault allegations, it looks like there is a new market for handsome actors willing to take over high-profile roles for Armie Hammer. And the latest actor to join that group is Dan Stevens.

The way technology has affected relationships, dating, and sex in the modern world is fairly commonplace today. Sci-fi obviously has lots of dystopian ways of commenting on this too (see the psychological submissive girl robot fetishization archetype in “Ex Machina”).

Steven Soderbergh had a terrific idea for his series “The Knick,” that never came to pass. The plan was, after Season 2, to spin-off the turn-of-the-medical drama idea to different filmmakers and set it in different locales, with new concepts of early doctors working with the material they had at the time.

It seems like a pretty substantial chunk of entertainment news within the last few weeks has been about revivals and reboots of various television series. Whether it’s studios cropping new streaming platforms (I’m looking at you Paramount+) or already-established services doubling down on pre-existing IP (à la the return of “Dexter” on Showtime), the nostalgia-propelled potential of these properties is clearly too lucrative to be dismissed.
