Eugenio Derbez’s upcoming Apple comedy series “Acapulco” has added four new cast members, with Richard Shepard now onboard to direct the pilot.
Enrique Arrizon, Damian Alcázar, Camila Perez, and Raphael Alejandro will all star alongside Derbez in the half-hour series. It will be shot in both Spanish and English and is inspired by the film “How to Be a Latin Lover,” in which Derbez starred and produced.
In “Acapulco,” a young Mexican man’s dream comes true when he gets the job of a lifetime at the hottest resort in Acapulco. But he soon realizes the job is far more complicated than he ever imagined as all of his beliefs and morals start to be questioned. The show takes place in 1984 with Derbez narrating and playing the present-day version of the main character, Maximo.

If The Chronicles of Narnia doesn’t exactly ring a bell, we don’t blame you. Though C.S. Lewis’ novels were hugely popular back when they were published – which was in the 1950s – the feature film adaptations haven’t exactly had the same luck. 2005-2010 saw three movies based on the fantasy world hit theatres in the form of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, Prince Caspian and The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. While none of them were particularly bad, the quality, and box office returns, certainly dipped as the franchise went on and the plug was eventually pulled after the third outing.
That was seven years ago, but now, there seems to be some renewed interest in the series, as Sony is looking to bring Chronicles of Narnia: The Silver Chair to the big screen, and they’ve hired Captain America: The First Avenger helmer Joe Johnston...

This morning I woke up to find a mysterious manila envelope slid under my door with only one thing written on it: “The Future.” Upon opening it I found a tiny flash drive that claimed on its label to be five hundred gigabytes worth of storage.
Consider me intrigued.
Crossing my fingers that someone wasn’t trying to give me a computer virus in a really roundabout way, I plugged it into my laptop and opened up the folder. Most of it was porn. But there was also one lone text file: “Summer Movie Preview 2020.”
After reading it, I knew I couldn’t keep it to myself. So, I present to you: one of those tedious summer movie preview articles, only…from the future.
Greetings, Internet! Or, at least, whoever pays their cable provider for the Deluxe Package that lets them visit more than just Facebook and Bing. Remember net neutrality?...
