ABC will be getting into the live TV musical event specials game with their own interpretation of The Little Mermaid, and they have already assembled quite a cast. Reports confirm that Moana‘s Auli’i Cravalho is set to star as Ariel. Meanwhile, Queen Latifah will play the singing sea witch Ursula, with Shaggy as Sebastian the crab. More on the report here below.
Marvel female superheroes are slowly, but surely, having more of an onscreen presence in the MCU. There’s Sky and Agent Carter on the TV front, while Jessica Jones has her series on Netflix. Wasp shared a title billing with Ant-Man in Ant-Man and the Wasp, and we recently saw the first trailer for Captain Marvel. Disney also announced that they would be having a Scarlet Witch series on Disney Play. And now, we can expect to see even more female superheroes on ABC.
New reports confirm that there will be a new group of lesser known Marvel female superheroes coming to the small screen from Wonder Woman writer Allan Heinberg. More on the story below.
There are no mincing words for this one. ABC has decided to cancel the Roseanne reboot, after renewing it for season 2. The decision comes after a racist tweet by star Roseanne Barr caused an uproar. More on the story below.
Marvel released a new trailer for their Inhumans TV series during San Diego Comic-Con 2017. If you missed it, you can check out the first trailer as well.
The show stars Anson Mount (Hell on Wheels) as Black Bolt, Iwan Rheon (Game of Thrones) as Maximus, Serinda Swan (Percy Jackson & the Olympians) as Medusa, and Ken Leung (LOST) as Karnak.
It is the time of year where season finales are wowing us, and series finales are making us cry. It is the time where we start thinking that all good television has already left us, like Bates Motel and The Vampire Diaries and Grimm and Outsiders (and many many more). We have to browse through the brand new shows and the revivals for the next future classic to tear at our hearts or make us laugh. One show I will definitely be checking out is The Good Doctor, headed to ABC, starring genius Freddie Highmore.
