Posted: 24 Oct 2020 05:00 AM PDT

Animaniacs 

"Here's the check for the Animaniacs reboot, you sellouts" The Warner brothers Yakko and Wakko and their sister Dot have big grins as they take their cash out from Hulu in the reboot show's new season. Jokes aside, the original cast is back in its full 90s form, including Steven Speilberg as executive producer. Despite the nostalgia factor, the reboot propels the siblings into the present day. Expect iPad bits, Beyonce references, and jokes at the expense of a very-orange animated President Donald Trump.  (November 20th)

Christmas on the Square

There's a new Christmas angel in town: Dolly Parton. In the upcoming Netflix musical – with songs written by Parton – the country icon tries to help a modern-day Scrooge character see the light. Regina Fuller (Christine Baranski) has big plans for her hometown: Selling it to a mall developer. However, industry has a cost, and going through with her deal means evicting her fellow townspeople on Christmas Eve. In a nod to It's a Wonderful Life, Parton appears to her to help her change her course.     (November 22nd)

In Wonder

In his upcoming Netflix documentary, Sean Mendes grapples with reconciling celebrity with the fact that he's just a regular guy. Mendes'srise to sol-out-arenas-level fame was a swift one, and the film shows us that ascent as well as the anxieties and fears that have come with it. He wonders aloud if fans would stop coming to his shows if they knew he was simply normal. Despite the struggles, the film shows his exuberance on stage in front of fans. He says, "It feel like a dream." (November 23rd)

Ma Rainey's Black Bottom 

It's the 1920s. Chicago. Tensions are running high in the recording studio. Legendary blues singer Ma Rainey (Viola Davis) operates on her own will and her own time. For one young trumpeter (portrayed by the late Chadwick Boseman), this is a source of angst. He has his own songs. He has his own visions. While Levee and Ma do collide, they are both just trying to survive the music industry unscathed – if that's possible.  (December 18th)

Mank

Herman J. Mankiewicz (Gary Oldman) is struggling to finish his screenplay. Gambling, alcoholism, and flirtations all stand in the way of transforming his draft pages into what will be Citizen Kane. However, the film isn't his only project in the works. Talking in code, Mank and Orson Wells discuss hunting the "Great White Whale" a.k.a William Randolph Hearst. "Just call me Ahab," Mank conspires. (December 4th)

News of the World

Tom Hanks is a traveling storyteller in the upcoming film based on Paulette Jiles' novel. It's only five years after the Civil War, and as he says in the trailer, 'It's not a rich man's occupation, as you can see." His occupation does lead him to great challenges and adventure once he comes across a ten-year-old girl who was separated from her family and raised by the Kiowa people. He vows to take her to a distant aunt and uncle. "She needs to laugh and dream," he says. "She needs new memories." (December 25th)

Raya and the Last Dragon

Raya spent her whole life training to become a guardian of the dragon gem. However, as she grew up, the world did some changing as well. The clip flashes scenes of several tribes standing on their own. "The world is divided," Raya says.  Evil is rearing its head, and Raya sets out as one lone warrior to find the world's last dragon and hopefully restore peace. (March 12th)

7 Beyonce Documentaries to Watch If You Loved Netflix's Homecoming - Oprah Mag

Posted: 16 Apr 2019 12:00 AM PDT

Beyoncé just released her new documentary Homecoming, which on Netflix. It gave viewers an inside look into her history-making, two-weekend headlining performance at Coachella in 2018 and featured much of the actual concert—plus behind-the-scenes footage and personal videos resulting in a film that's going to be talked about for years to come.

But this is far from the pop star's first foray into the world of documentaries. Since the beginning of her solo career, Beyoncé has often opted out of doing interviews and press, choosing instead to let fans inside both her creative process and her personal life through in-depth films that show the woman behind the artist.

In many of those documentaries—like 2013's Life is But a Dream, which aired on HBO—Beyoncé even included footage from a video diary that she keeps and records on her laptop, including early shots of her pregnant with her daughter, Blue Ivy, messages she's sent to her husband, rapper Jay-Z, and her real-time reactions while hearing news headlines about herself play on the television.

Homecoming is one of Queen Bey's most compelling projects yet, but in case you may have missed them, here's a look at the other 7 Beyoncé documentaries and concert specials the singer has already released. Fingers crossed we might eventually get one about her and Jay-Z's "On The Run II" tour.

Homecoming (2019)

Last year, Beyoncé made history by becoming the first Black woman to headline the music festival Coachella. She took that opportunity to honor Black culture, paying homage to America's historically Black colleges and universities with a homecoming-themed show. Her performances at both Coachella weekends went down in history, with the New York Times noting that "Beyonce is Bigger Than Coachella," writing that her performance was "a gobsmacking marvel of choreography and musical direction." In her new Netflix documentary, Beyoncé brought viewers behind the scenes of that legendary performance—and provided glimpses of her personal life with Jay-Z, her 7-year-old, Blue Ivy, and her 22-month-old twins, Rumi and Sir.

She also opens up about experiencing a miscarriage, her relationship with Jay-Z, and, of course, the birth of Blue Ivy—who makes an adorable appearance at less than a year old. "People see celebrities and they have money and fame," Beyoncé says at one point, "but I'm a human being. I cry, I get scared, I get nervous just like everyone else.

Beyonce announces emergency aid to support Nigerian protesters, more news | Gallery - Wonderwall

Beyonce calls for an end to police brutality in Nigeria as her foundation partners with emergency coalitions there

Politicians and celebrities around the world have been speaking out to show their support for the largely young protesters who continue demonstrating against police brutality in Nigeria. Beyonce joined the chorus of voices on social media in the early hours of Wednesday morning, around the same time security forces were reportedly opening fire on a group of demonstrators, according to a new Amnesty International report (via the New York Times). "I am heartbroken to see the senseless brutality taking place in Nigeria," the singer wrote on social media and the platforms for her BeyGOOD Foundation. "There has to be an end to SARS," she continued, referencing the controversial Special Anti-Robbery Squad that has a "reputation for abusing, torturing and even killing young people," according to the Times. "We have been working on partnerships with youth organizations to support those protesting for change," Beyonce said in the statement. "We are collaborating with coalitions to provide emergency healthcare, food, and shelter. To our Nigerian sisters and brothers, we stand with you." She then linked to a new section on Beyonce.com where fans can find a list of organizations through which they can help, including Nigeria's Feminist Coalition and Connected Development (CODE). Protesters in Nigeria have called for the country to "#EndSARS" for weeks — a call the government appeared to be heeding when it said recently it would ban the organization. The new report from Amnesty, however, suggests security forces in the streets of the country remain brutal, as SARS officers may simply have been redeployed to other groups. Beyonce's post garnered a mix of responses, with some complaining that the singer hasn't done enough to support Nigerian and other African protest movements. Others, though, came to her defense. "THIS is why it took so long for her to post, because her team were working on providing ACTUAL resources for people in Nigeria!" wrote one supporter.

50 Cent urges ex, Chelsea Handler, not to 'let Trump and Joe Biden come between us'

Chelsea Handler's friendship with 50 Cent outlasted their romantic relationship, but can it withstand the political pressures of 2020? Neither of them seems very sure. On Wednesday, the rapper shared an exchange he had with the comic this week in which she responded not so favorably to comments he shared Monday on Twitter about Donald Trump and Joe Biden. In his posts, Fiddy urged his social media followers to vote for Trump because of Biden's plan to hike taxes for those who earn more than $400,000 a year. "Yeah, i don't want to be 20cent," he joked. "62% is a very, very,bad idea. 😟i don't like it !" Chelsea, however, doesn't like the current president. "You used to be my favorite ex-boyfriend," she told Fiddy in a comment. When he reposted the exchange on Instagram, he included a plea that she not allow their political differences ruin their relationship. "Oh my God this is affecting my love life now," he captioned the screenshot of their exchange, adding, "@chelseahandler I love ya Gator, don't let Trump and joe Biden come between us girl." Chelsea appears not to have responded publicly, although she did share some thoughts on Trump the same day as Fiddy's original tax bracket post. "More than 70,450 new cases were reported in the US on Friday, the highest number since July 24," Chelsea tweeted Monday. "We are 8 months into a pandemic, with no plan. Can you tell your children you voted for this man not once, but twice?" The rapper and comic reportedly dated for a few months in 2010 after he appeared on her show.

Engagement buzz hits Robert Pattinson and Suki Waterhouse

As Robert Pattinson gets back to work on the Liverpool set of "The Batman" following his recovery from COVID-19, his romance with model Suki Waterhouse is reportedly getting more serious. "Rob and Suki have definitely discussed getting engaged but are in no rush," an insider tells E! News in a new report. "Suki is not pressuring him and they are both very committed to each other." It seems the couple's time spent in quarantine together in the U.K. has only magnified the fact that they're "a really good match," according to E!'s source, who says the actor, 34, and model, 28, are "truly inseparable and in love." Rob and Suki were first linked romantically back in 2018.

Mark Hamill, Billie Lourd and more honor Carrie Fisher on what would have been her 64th birthday

Wednesday, Oct. 21, marked what would have been Carrie Fisher's 64th birthday, a milestone many of her friends, family members and former colleagues marked with love on social media this week. Mark Hamill, who played Luke Skywalker opposite Carrie's Princess Leia in "Star Wars," was among the first to post about the special day on Twitter. "Happy Birthday Carrie Frances Fisher," he wrote, sharing a photo of the two circa 1980-something, rubbing noses in a near-kiss.
The world will never stop missing you…..," he added. Jim Belushi, who worked with the late actress and writer on "The Man With One Red Shoe" and "The Blues Brothers," tweeted, "Happy birthday sweetheart, I think about you all the time," while "Star Trek's" George Takei shared that he was, "Thinking of Carrie Fisher on what would have been her 64th birthday," and asked, "What's your favorite work by Ms. Fisher, friends?" Carrie's daughter, Billie Lourd, meanwhile, simply shared a photo of her mom when she was pregnant with Billie — a choice that felt extra meaningful, given that she just welcomed a child of her own. Billie and Austen Rydell named their son Kingston Fisher Lourd Rydell in Carrie's honor. Carrie died at age 60 in December 2016 after suffering a heart attack on a plane.

Mindy Kaling and Dan Goor-penned 'Legally Blonde 3' finally gets a release date

It took two years — and a 20th anniversary reunion — but MGM has finally confirmed the release date for the third installation of "Legally Blonde." "Elle Woods is back! Legally Blonde 3 coming May 2022. We rest our case," MGM Studios tweeted late in the day Tuesday. The studio initially confirmed the project was a go back in 2018. At the time, the film was expected to open in theaters on Valentine's Day 2020, according to EW. But screenwriter Mindy Kaling didn't confirm she and "Parks and Recreation's" Dan Goor were working on the script until this past May. "I'd been working with her on a couple movies and we've been friends for a while," Mindy said on "Good Morning America" earlier this month. "I have always quoted the movies to her — I was that annoying friend that would be like, 'Bend and snap' to her," she recalled with a smile.

After helping funnel more than $2 billion into ABC through her hit shows, Shonda Rhimes left recently and signed a new deal with Netflix. Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter in a new interview, she explained that she'd suffered through a slew of arguments about budgeting and content already when one refusal from ABC, which is owned by Disney, made her decide to finally leave. "I felt like I was dying. Like I'd been pushing the same ball up the same hill in the exact same way for a really long time," she said. Then, when she needed an extra pass for her sister to take her daughter to Disneyland on the all-inclusive ticket she has for one person (because she's single), she was told repeatedly the network brass "never do this." At one point, she says an exec challenged her by asking, "Don't you have enough?" That's when she called her lawyer and said, "Figure out a way to get [me] over to Netflix, or [I'll] find new representatives." The one-day ticket costs $199, according to Page Six.

Stephen Colbert breaks down in tears as Dolly Parton sings on the 'Late Show'

Get this man a Kleenex! Dolly Parton called in to "The Late Show" Tuesday night for a chat with host Stephen Colbert — who, viewers quickly learned, is hardly immune to the legendary singer-songwriter's charms. While discussing the folk songs her mom, Avie Lee, sang to Dolly and her siblings as kids, she suddenly launched into the traditional bluegrass ballad, "Bury Me Beneath the Willow" at one point in the interview. Between Dolly's haunting vocals and the heartbreaking tale laid out by the lyrics, Stephen was visibly moved. He admitted he had goosebumps after she sang one part of it, then had to wipe tears from his eyes as she sang another. "I better hush before you cry yourself to death and we can't finish the show," the singer cracked, according to E! News. "Like a lot of Americans, I'm under a lot of stress right now, Dolly!" Stephen replied, laughing. Dolly clearly didn't mind his emotion, though. "We used to sing when momma would sing. Momma would cry, we'd cry — those old songs were just amazing," she said. Stephen, still seemingly a bit emotional, then asked, "Isn't it funny that sometimes there's nothing happier than a cry?" Said Dolly: "Yeah, I think it cleanses your soul. Water's good to wash it out. That's what tears are for, I think." The 74-year-old — who recently confirmed she's in talks with Playboy to appear on the magazine's cover for her 75th birthday in a few months — recently finished a new book, "Songteller: My Life in Lyrics," out Nov. 17.

Matthew McConaughey wants America to 'embrace' whomever wins the election

If it's starting to feel like everyone in America is at each other's throats ahead of the election look no further than Matthew McConaughey to sow some unity in divisive times. The actor checked in with "Fox and Friends" this week to promote his new memoir, "Greenlights." But he spent a good deal of the the interview discussing politics. For the "alright, alright, alright"-quipping star, what matters most after the election is that we come together as a country and make the results work for as many people as possible. "It's time to get constructive and not deny the fact of whatever's happened and embrace the situation," he said, according to Fox. "Whoever is going to be commander in chief and president of the United States of America, that's not something, hopefully, that we're going to deny or be able to argue. I hope it's a clean election," he admitted. Still, he believes, "we have a lot of work to do as a country." Calling himself "aggressively centric," the native Texan added: "We've got to come together whatever happens in this election right now. We can do better as individuals and as people, as a community, as Americans. We can do better."

Chris Pratt's fellow 'Avengers' defend him after 'worst Chris' dis

Chris Pratt was voted Hollywood's "worst Chris" this week on Twitter in a contest that asked users to rank him alongside Chris Pine, Chris Hemsworth and Chris Evans — and Chris Pratt's fellow "Avengers" were not having it. "What a world… The 'sinless' are casting stones at my #brother, Chris Pratt…," Robert Downey Jr., aka "Iron Man," posted on Instagram in defense of his pal. "A real #Christian who lives by #principle, has never demonstrated anything but #positivity and #gratitude… AND he just married into a family that makes space for civil discourse and (just plain fact) INSISTS on service as the highest value," he continued, referencing Chris' marriage to Katherine Schwarzenegger. "If you take issue with Chris,,, I've got a novel idea. Delete your social media accounts, sit with your OWN defects of #character, work on THEM, then celebrate your humanness… @prattprattpratt I #gotyerbackbackback." Zoe Saldana, who played Gamora alongside the Chris in question, focused on keeping him confident despite the slight. "'No matter how hard it gets, stick your chest out, keep your head up and handle it,'" she posted, quoting Tupak Shakur. "You got this @prattprattpratt. Your family, friends, colleagues & everyone who's ever crossed paths with you knows your heart and your worth!" Finally, Mark Ruffalo, aka The Hulk, chimed in to declare Chris "as solid a man [as] there is," telling the Twitterverse, "I know him personally, and instead of casting aspersions, look at how he lives his life. He is just not overtly political as a rule." Mark was referencing critics who posted assumptions that Chris supports Donald Trump or generally leans right, politically, given his devout religious beliefs. "This is a distraction. Let's keep our eyes on the prize, friends," Mark continued. "We are so close now."

Kim Kardashian celebrates her 40th birthday with family and some extra love from Kanye West

Kim Kardashian West is having quite the birthday week. The reality star celebrated the big 4-0 on Wednesday, Oct. 21, the same day netflix released the newest season of David Letterman's "My Next Guest Needs No Introduction." Kim was among those guests, featured in a segment where she reflected on her experience being held hostage and robbed in Paris in 2016, and how she's overcoming the lingering effects of the trauma. On her birthday, however, she appeared to be in what she called her "happy place" — with family, whom she was pictured celebrating with on social media. She got a sweet shout-out from her husband, Kanye West, too. Alongside a photo from the day they got engaged that showed the couple kissing, he wrote, "been doing empty stadiums. Happy 40th birthday!! I love you so much."
