Lifetime fans are in for a 2024 Christmas movie that has more heat than just chestnuts roasting on an open fire — or than ever before. In 2023, A Cowboy Christmas Romance, written by Sarah Drew, became the first-ever Christmas TV movie to have a sex scene. This year, Drew wrote and executive produced another installment in her It’s a Wonderful Lifetime oeuvre for the network. It not only has another sex scene — but it’s much less subtle this time. A Carpenter Christmas Romance (above) stars Mitchell Slaggert and Sasha Pieterse. It toys with, “the vibe of adding spicy to the sweet to the Christmas season,” Drew told Variety on Thursday (October 24). “There’s more steam this year than last year, so get ready. Mitchell Slaggert, he’s shirtless. He’s also just absolutely perfect in this role,” the screenwriter continued. “He has so much heart and so much charisma on screen.

Reneé Rapp is leaving Max’s The Sex Lives of College Girls. Rapp stars as Leighton, a freshman and wealthy legacy student from New York who is trying to live up to her mother’s high expectations. It marked her television debut.

Deadline understands that Rapp will appear in a handful of episodes of season three of the show, which was renewed in December, but will not be a series regular and will depart the show after those episodes.

The Sex Lives of College Girls follows four college roommates in their first year at New England’s prestigious Essex College.

Exclusive: Talent manager Chris Kiely has been promoted to Partner at Authentic Talent and Literary Management after nearly 11 years with the company.

Kiely’s new role will see him take on increased responsibilities in hiring, recruitment, and the establishing and maintaining of agency relationships, while continuing his day-to-day business as a manager and his mentorship of junior employees.

The promotion follows Authentic founder and CEO Jon Rubinstein’s 2021 decision to steer the company away from a single leadership structure, with growth instead being driven by a larger partnership group. Others playing key roles in the process after being introduced as Partners last year include Anne Woodward, Sean Elliott, Jane Berliner, Jill Kaplan, Vikram Dhawer, Bob Glennon, Don Wongprapan, Meg Mortimer and Rick Dorfman.

Kiely’s promotion also recognizes the role he’s played in finding opportunities for creatives from underrepresented communities, as a manager who’s long had his eye on emerging talent.

Charlie Hall knows he's not a fan favorite among "The Sex Lives of College Girls" fans - and he's totally fine with that. "I kind of love that he's unlikeable," the 25-year-old tells Popsugar of his character Andrew, aka Whitney's (Alyah Chanelle Scott) biochem lab partner and love interest in season two.

Hall joined the HBO Max hit series, which wrapped up its second season on Dec. 15, just a few years after graduating from Northwestern University and pursuing an acting career. Like his costar Mitchell Slaggert, the actor - whose parents are "Seinfeld" star Julia Louis-Dreyfus and "Saturday Night Live" alum Brad Hall - auditioned for a different role than the one he landed, but he admits he loved the challenge of playing his detested character.

"It's a fun little challenge to play someone that you're not rooting for in a way that is entertaining and also in a way that's funny.

The Sex Lives of College Girls will return for a third season on HBO Max. Starring Pauline Chalamet, Amrit Kaur, Reneé Rapp, and Alyah Chanelle Scott, the comedy series follows four college students who go to school in Vermont.

Hazily atmospheric “Moss” chronicles the 18th birthday of its titular rural youth, to whom the 36 hours or so depicted end up seeming quite eventful — though viewers may find them less so. Daniel Peddle’s indie drama has a handsome hero and attractive photography of the coastal North Carolina locations, but isn’t quite arresting enough in mood or style to sustain a feature so slight in story terms. Still, this is no failure, but a nice slice-of-life miniature that falls a bit short, suggesting its writer-director (whose prior efforts were mostly documentaries) is just another film or two away from more expertly combining a meditative tenor with narrative content.

Pleasure Island, just off North Carolina’s southernmost coast, is home to teenage only child Moss (Mitchell Slaggert) and his father Ray (Billy Ray Suggs). The latter makes a living crafting sculptures from driftwood, a profession his son scoffs at — though...

You get what you wish for. It’s a trope that has proliferated movies and literature since the dawn of time. When the concept is done well it typically leads to taut, thrilling movies; when its done wrong… Well you get films like Gremlin.

Wish Upon, whilst not a fantastic example of the genre, is not Gremlin-level bad, but it’s not without its problems. The main of which is a ridiculously selfish lead character whose actions belie what is supposed to be a good natured teen struggling with high school. Think Mean Girls but with death, murder, a monkeys paw (yes, for that is the central conceit All these movies take from) and a lot of dead people.

Joey King (Independence Day: Resurgence, “Fargo”) must be careful what she wishes for in the terrifying thriller Wish Upon, also starring Ryan Phillippe (Crash, “Shooter”), Emmy® nominee Shannon Purser (“Stranger Things”), Ki Hong Lee (The Maze Runnerfranchise, “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt”), Mitchell Slaggert (Moss), Alice Lee (“Gap Year”), Sidney Park (“Instant Mom”), Kevin Hanchard (“Orphan Black”), Sherilyn Fenn (“Twin Peaks”) and Elisabeth Rohm (American Hustle, “Law & Order”). Wish Upon debuts on Digital HD, Blu-ray™ Combo Pack, DVD and VOD on October 10. The Blu-ray Combo Pack also includes the Director’s Unrated Cut, featuring footage not seen in the theatrical release. Bonus materials on Wish Upon include “I Wish: The Cast Share What They Would Wish” (all formats except VOD), “Attic Tour with Joey King” (all formats except VOD), “Directing Darkness: John Leonetti and Cast Talk About Developing a Horror Film” (Blu-ray and Digital exclusive), and “Motion Comics: Lu Mei...

When our own Heather Wixson spoke with Wish Upon director John R. Leonetti, he mentioned that a more extreme version of the PG-13 film would be released on home media. If you were excited about the announcement, then your wish is about to come true, because Broad Green Pictures has now announced an October 10th home media release of the supernatural horror film (read Heather's review here), including a Director's Unrated Cut with all-new footage not seen in theaters:

Press Release: Los Angeles (August 21, 2017) – Joey King (Independence Day: Resurgence, “Fargo”) must be careful what she wishes for in the terrifying thriller Wish Upon, also starring Ryan Phillippe (Crash, “Shooter”), Emmy® nominee Shannon Purser (“Stranger Things”), Ki Hong Lee (The Maze Runnerfranchise, “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt”), Mitchell Slaggert (Moss), Alice Lee (“Gap Year”), Sidney Park (“Instant Mom”), Kevin Hanchard (“Orphan Black”), Sherilyn Fenn (“Twin Peaks”) and Elisabeth Rohm (American Hustle, “Law & Order...

Playing with the whole “creepy inanimate object” trope which has seen a resurgence of late, Annabelle director John R. Leonetti is back again with another murder by numbers horror B movie which is set to either infuriate, or have its audiences in fits of laughter. Written by Barbara Marshall, Wish Upon doesn’t really try to be anything but exactly what it is. Its formulaic narrative, coupled with predictable jump-scares and cheesy dialogue may not bring anything new or innovative to the horror genre, but no one can deny the entertainment value of its slapstick sensibilities.

17 year old Clare (Joey King) has not had the easiest upbringing, having witnessed the suicide of her mother aged only five. The teenager has since suffered daily bullying at high school where she is mocked by the popular kids and largely ignored by her longtime crush Paul (Mitchell Slaggert). Her father...

We’re nearly halfway through July, but somehow, here at the ole’ multiplex, there’s a distinct chill. No, it’s not somebody tinkering with the thermostat. It could be this new horror flick, perhaps. Although it’s not the good chill as in a memorable “spine-tingler”. No, it’s as if this wannabe’ thriller somehow escaped the dumping ground of mid-January, or a Friday-the-thirteenth weekend, or sometime close to Halloween. It’s squarely aimed at the pre-teen and teen set since it’s got the PG-13 rating, so it’s a bit scary, just not too intense or “gory gross”. And it features a cast from other young adult flicks and TV shows for audience identification. And what’s the added incentive at the top of the poster, the nudge that’ll put behinds in the seats? “From the director of Annabelle”…really. That’s something to boast about?...

Never open strange old boxes. It’s a lesson no one ever follows in horror movies.

From the director John R. Leonetti (Annabelle), Wish Upon follows a young girl who was given a strange box by her father that grants seven wishes. For every wish granted, a blood sacrifice is made and her love ones suffer the consequences of her wishes.

The film stars Joey King (Independence Day: Resurgence), Ryan Phillipe (Cruel Intentions), Ki Hong Lee (Maze Runner), Mitchell Slaggert (Moss), Shannon Purser (Stranger Things) and Sydney Park (The Walking Dead).

Wish Upon will be playing nationwide in theaters starting this Friday.

Lrm had a one-on-one interview with Ki Hong Lee on his strong supporting role in the film. He plays an Asian skater, who has a secret crush on the girl with the wish box. He assists her on uncovering the secrets of the box.
