Netflix has unveiled the first trailer for Nonnas, Vince Vaughn's star-studded new comedy that promises to serve up some big laughs when it hits the streaming service on May 9. The dramedy centers around Joe Scaravella (Vaughn), who opens a restaurant following the loss of his mother and hires four Italian grandmothers, aka "nonnas," as chefs. The plot is based on the real-life owner of the Staten Island eatery Enoteca Maria, whose story is brought to the screen by Liz Maccie, who penned the script, and her husband Stephen Chbosky, who directed the feature.

The quartet of nonnas responsible for serving up this classic blend — Roberta (Lorraine Bracco), Antonella (Brenda Vaccaro), Teresa (Talia Shire), and...

After winning six Emmy Awards last year, “Baby Reindeer” is looking to dominate on home soil with eight nominations at the BAFTA TV and Craft Awards.

The hit Netflix series emerged at the top of the pack, landing nods for limited drama, leading actor for Richard Gadd and supporting actress for both Jessica Gunning and Nava Mau. With her nomination, Mau becomes the first openly transgender BAFTA TV Award nominee.

His subsequent leading role in Reacher as Jack Reacher would solidify his action acting chops. A co-star credit in The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare alongside Henry Cavill would further cement his status as a star.

Yet, before the roles modern Ritchson had become known for, he attempted to break into the industry in a big way by writing, directing, and starring in the comedy action film, Dark Web: Cicada 3301. The movie was largely overlooked upon release and has become a side note in Ritchson's career. But should the movie be unearthed and re-visited? Does it say anything about Ritchson as a creative? Here is what you need to know...
