Coming hot off the heels of yesterday’s , The CW has now revealed even more photos from the upcoming Breakfast Club-inspired flashback episode of Season 3, during which the show’s young cast will play teenage versions of their characters’ parents. One of the most noteworthy takeaways from these photos is all the apparent flirtations and flings that were happening among Riverdale‘s parents when they were in high school, many of which have been alluded to in the show thus far. RELATED: Young Fred Andrews can be seen having moments with Hermione and Alice (which would explain a lot about Archie.) Speaking of Hermione, she can also be seen having a close encounter with one F.P. Jones. Moreover, it appears that the love affair between Sheriff Keller and Mayor McCoy may have started much earlier than previously thought. On that note, this photoset also marks the first look at Casey Cott as young Sheriff Keller. Additionally, Trevor Stines, who played Jason Blossom in Season 1, will return to play a younger version of Jason’s father (and murderer) Clifford when he and Penelope were still dating. Finally, these images continue to emphasize the Breakfast Club influence, making it clear that the parents of Riverdale were vastly different from one another during their schooling days in terms of their social archetypes, from a biker gang member like Alice to F.P. the football star. RELATED: Airing on Wednesdays at 8 pm ET/PT on The CW, Riverdale stars KJ Apa, Lili Reinhart, Camila Mendes, Cole Sprouse, Madelaine Petsch, Ashleigh Miller, Casey Cott, Mark Consuelos, Skeet Ulrich, Marisol Nichols, Madchen Amick and Luke Perry.

Trouble has hit the franchise as the spinoff has been hit with a lawsuit. According to , franchise producer Neal Moritz filed a lawsuit against Universal for breach of oral contract and promissory fraud after he was booted from the franchise’s first spinoff. Attorney Dale Kinsella called it a “classic example of Hollywood greed.” RELATED: Filming kicked off early last month with a behind-the-scenes look at Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham in the characters of Hobbs and Shaw respectively, as well as the first look at Idris Elba’s new villain. The lawsuit says Moritz was removed from the project just days before cameras began rolling. Moritz is currently seeking to be reinstated as lead producer on the film, or to be paid “tens of millions dollars in damages in lost compensation.” According to the complaint, which can be read by going , Universal presented Moritz with the chance to either amend his oral producer deal and, in doing so, accept substantially inferior financial terms or be cut from the project altogether. Because Moritz refused to amend his contract, Universal forced him off the project. “Remarkably, despite Moritz having complete Pay-or-Play protection on all of his last several deals on the FF Franchise and having relied on Universal’s oral promises, Universal also took the extraordinary position that it was free to exploit Moritz’s ideas for Hobbs and Shaw, and his work product over an approximately year-and-a-half period, without honoring its oral producer agreement,” the filing states regarding Universal’s blockbuster franchise. RELATED: Universal is said to have made its new offer to Moritz over the summer and then officially acted on its decision on September 7, when it cut Moritz out of Hobbs and Shaw. Per the filing, Universal has reportedly claimed it can move forward on the project without Moritz’s inclusion. And as we’ve seen courtesy of those behind-the-scenes photos, filming is still very much underway and has been since Moritz’s ousting. The decision to amend his contract was said to be due to an “increased budget” on the film, although Moritz and his legal team refute those claims, stating that at the time of the offer the budget on the flick was actually $15 million under budget. We’ll have to wait and see if the lawsuit heads to trial, or if both parties will settle. As it stands right now, Hobbs and Shaw is still slated set to hit the big screen next summer. Directed by David Leitch from a script by Chris Morgan, Hobbs and Shaw stars Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham. The film will be released on Aug. 2, 2019. The post appeared first on .

The Conners showrunner Bruce Helford has explained why the series chose to kill off Rosanne Barr’s character with a prescription drug overdose. Roseanne returned to television in 2017 to strong ratings, but Barr’s racist statements on Twitter in May of 2018 got the show canceled by ABC. The series was eventually revived as The Conners, returning to television screens earlier this week. While almost the entire cast and crew have returned, Roseanne (and the character heavily based on her) have been written off the show. In the first episode of The Conners, the character of Roseanne is revealed to have died of a painkiller overdose. This actually played off the character’s growing addiction to the drugs following surgery, which was a minor subplot of the Roseanne revival. RELATED: Writing an op-ed for , Roseanne and The Conners showrunner Bruce Helford elaborated on his decision to ultimately kill off the character instead of just writing her off the show. “There was a lot of chatter in the ether about how we should explain Roseanne’s absence,” said Helford. “Should she have a sudden heart attack, a mental breakdown or go off into the sunset on a boat with her son Jerry Garcia? But back in the writers room, we firmly decided against anything cowardly or far-fetched, anything that would make the fierce matriarch of the Conners seem pathetic or debased.” Helford also saw the decision as an opportunity to explore a serious topic; the rise of opioid-related deaths in America. “I wanted a respectful sendoff for her, too: One that was relevant and could inspire discussion for the greater good about the American working class, whose authentic problems are often ignored by broadcast television,” said Helford. “If you watched the first episode, I hope you’ll agree we did that.” RELATED: For her part, Roseanne Barr for the way her character was written off the show. The actor and comedian has spent the last few months defending herself and the sense of humor that got her fired from the ABC series. She released a statement after the episode aired, decrying the death. The statement reads in-part that “[the death] was done through an opioid overdose lent an unnecessary grim and morbid dimension to an otherwise happy family show.” Airing Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC, The Conners stars John Goodman, Laurie Metcalf, Sara Gilbert, Lecy Goranson, Michael Fishman, Emma Kenney, Ames McNamara, Jayden Rey and Maya Lynne Robinson.

RELATED: “The most important thing for it was to scare the shit out you,” declared original Halloween filmmaker John Carpenter. Debuting on October 19, the latest Halloween is directed by David Gordon Green from a script written with Danny McBride and Jeff Fradley.

Hoping to reinvent the long-running zombie show with a time-jump, a whole host of new characters and the departure of fan-favorites like Andrew Lincoln and Lauren Cohan, is stumbling at the first hurdle. The AMC series’ revamped Season 9 just hit a new series low for ratings. reports that October 14’s “The Bridge” drew a disappointing Neilsen rating of 2.0 in the key 18-49 demographic and just 4.9 million viewers in the Live+Same Day numbers. To put this into context, The Walking Dead‘s previous demographic low was 2.4 back in Season 1. RELATED: Worryingly, the 4.9 million viewers is only just ahead of Season 1’s 4.7 million. “The Bridge” also managed to drop 20% of its audience from the Season 9 premiere. New showrunner Angela Kang proved there’s still life in The Walking Dead storywise with the first two episodes of Season 9, but there’s no escaping the network numbers. Season 9’s premiere pulled in 6.08 million viewers, which is a lot less than the Season 8 finale, and miles away from the 11.44 million who tuned in for the Season 8 premiere. Added to this, both The Walking Dead and Fear The Walking Dead have a history of losing viewers after a big character death. After the Season 7 premiere brutally offed Glenn and Abraham, The Walking Dead dropped from 17 million to 12.5 viewers. The show also slumped from 8.3 million to 6.82 million following Carl’s death, and with The Walking Dead facing the possibility of Rick Grimes becoming its biggest death ever, one has to wonder where the shows numbers will go once he’s gone.

Fans of Warner Bros.’ so-called DC Extended Universe of films may have to get ready to move on.
