Excess of anything is harmful, be it the caffeine you trust your mornings with or an obsession with something or someone. It never leads to a happy ending. Brittany Underwood’s latest thriller, Devil On My Doorstep, is based around the same. It follows the story of Chloe (Lyndon Smith), a delivery girl who gives in to her desires and becomes obsessed with Natasha (Jenna Dewan). The latter is a famous social media influencer who has just lost someone close to her heart. Unfortunately, what started as friendly banter soon turned into something much worse.

“You’re Not Supposed to Be Here,” which premieres Nov. 4, stars Stause and Diora Baird as a lesbian couple babymooning in a remote mountain town, while “Devil On My Doorstep,” which debuts Nov. 11, features real-life partners Jenna Dewan and Steve Kazee in a haunting tale surrounding an influencer. Both features were filmed ahead of the Hollywood double strike.

The actor was best known for his role as Nicholas Almain on NBC’s daytime drama Days of Our Lives and also as Eddie Duran in Hollywood Heights. He was 34.

Single mother Jess arrives on a remote island to compete on Love At Last, TV’s number one dating show (think The Bachelor – hence the title of the film). Her quest for love becomes a fight for survival when she slowly discovers that a mysterious killer is slaying the contestants, one by one, even with the cameras rolling. Jess must navigate a sea of two-faced beauty queens, coldhearted producers, and one mysterious and deadly killer in order to get off the island alive.

What do you do when your wife forces you to watch The Bachelor? You make a horror movie about it, of course… and that’s exactly what director Tim Cruz did. His third film The Final Rose is a slasher-whodunit set on a remote island about a single mother competing on a reality TV dating show called Love at Last. When the contestants become targets of a mysterious masked killer, their search for romance turns into a fight for survival.

Pitched to Fox and Tubi in September 2021, the concept was impressively bought on the spot based on two sentences. Cruz and co-writer Blake Rutledge created the outline in two weeks, completed the first draft in five and shot the film in 12 days during a sweltering June in California. Fittingly released during Filipino American History Month, Cruz expresses pride in it most likely being the first studio-produced film with a Filipino director,...

Rusty Beck (wonderfully played by Graham Patrick Martin) has been an integral part of TNT’s Major Crimes since, well, before the show even aired. He made his debut on the series finale of The Closer, and was brought back for the spinoff, and we’ve spent the last two and a half seasons watching his journey.

Last night’s episode was a pivotal one for Rusty, as he gathered the courage to come out to his fiends in the squad room, and thanks to out showrunner James Duff, it was handled without histrionics, and with humor and sensitivity.

The episode centered around a therapy session Rusty has with Dr. Bowman (played by the out Bill Brochtrup), and Rusty’s coming out is told through a case the Major Crimes Unit is investigating.

An Indian man has been killed in a swanky Hollywood hotel, and the unit discovers he had...

Celebrating Latinos contributions to the entertainment industry, Bella Thorne attended the Imagen Awards at the Beverly Hilton hotel on Friday (August 16).

At the 28th Annual event, the 15-year-old actress was nominated for Best Young Actress/Television alongside Victoria Justice, Cierra Ramirez, Raini Rodriguez, and Brittany Underwood.

Graciously congratulating her fellow nominee afterwards, Bella tweeted, "congrats to the very sweet and talented @Raini_Rodriguez <3."...

She's best known for playing Willow Palin, Sarah Palin's daughter in the Emmy-nominated HBO movie "Game Change," and for her starring role as an All-American teenager on the new Nick at Nite drama, "Hollywood Heights." But most people don't know that 24-year-old actress Brittany Underwood, is a proud Latina!

"I'm half-Colombian and my mother is from Bogota," Underwood told The Huffington Post in an email. The talented actress added that people are often surprised to learn about her Latin roots. "My dad is of English descent so, nobody ever assumes I'm Latina. They always think I'm Irish or Italian," she says.

Read on to find out what else Brittany had to say about her Latin roots, why she thinks everyone should teach their kids a second language, and why everyone should check out her new show "Hollywood Heights," which airs weekdays at 9 Est/8 Cst on Nick at Nite.

Nick at Nite heats up the summer with stardom, romance and deceit with the premiere of the nightly primetime drama, Hollywood Heights, and if that doesn't already intrigue you then did we mention James Franco is also coming along for the ride! The brand-new hour-long series which stars Cody Longo, Brittany Underwood and Carlos Ponce and none other than James Franco, who will star in a multi-episode storyline on the show is going to heat up your weeknights starting June 18 at 9 p.m. (Et/Pt) Adapted for a U.S. audience from the wildly popular Mexican telenovela Alcanzar una Estrella, 'Hollywood Heights' follows the journey of a teenage girl whose life changes drastically when she becomes a star and wins the love of her rock and roll idol, and both are tested by setbacks, heartbreak and deception. The first season of the 80-episode series, co-produced with Televisa in association with Sony Pictures Television,...

Nickelodeon certainly has its work cut out for itself, promising 80 episodes of new tween soap Hollywood Heights, all to run weeknights at 9pm through October. It’s a trick that’s worked for Degrassi’s last three summers (the Canadian drama on sister network TeenNick), but is pretty ambitious for a series coming right out of the gate. It’s a tried-and-true formula at best, with rebellious young girls aplenty, one of whom (star Brittany Underwood as Loren) falls for biggest rock star on the planet Eddie Duran (Cody Longo). Despite the fact that Eddie has a girlfriend (Melissa Ordway as Chloe), and also, is a rock star, the series will revolve around these star-crossed lovers and how they come to be together, because what’s more aspirational for tweens than falling in love with your superstar idol, right? The ideas are all right here, the actors are glossy, and...

Nick at Nite is premiering an all-new drama in June called "Hollywood Heights" and Zap2it has an exclusive first-look clip of the show's first promo.

The show chronicles the life of Loren (Brittany Underwood, "One Life to Live"), a smart and independent, but shy, high school senior who has ambitions of being a songwriter and sends her lyrics to rock star Eddie (Cody Longo, "Days of Our Lives"). When she not only wins a songwriting competition sponsored by Eddie, but also becomes his friend, it's like Loren's wildest dreams have come true.

Actor James Franco has been recently added to the cast in a guest-starring role. He'll appear in multiple episodes as Osborne "Oz" Silver, an intense, eccentric movie mogul who lives life to the fullest and does whatever it takes to make the film he wants.

So check out the above promo and let us know what you...
