Netflix is dipping into the world of Dutch reality with a series following Yolanthe Cabau’s journey to LA, while the streamer is adapting Saskia Noort’s The Dinner Club.

The Spanish-Dutch An Egypt Affair star will be the focus of a show that was unveiled at a Next on Netflix event in Amsterdam this afternoon.

In the untitled reality series, cameras will follow Cabau as she leaves the Dutch capital for Tinseltown with son Xess Xava. As she faces her past, the audience discovers why Cabau, who used to be married to Dutch soccer star Wesley Sneijder, left the limelight, and which childhood secrets continue to haunt her.

“I made a conscious decision to step out of the spotlight for a while to focus on myself and Xess,” she said. “The past few years have been challenging, but I can confidently say that I am more empowered than ever.

Jerry Douglas took the stage and stood proudly while being inducted into the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame during the 35th annual International Bluegrass Music Association awards show Thursday night in Raleigh.

“You don’t get here alone,” the 68-year-old Dobro legend told the audience at the Martin Marietta Center for the Performing Arts. “I’ve covered a lot of ground in the last 51 years, and I look forward to whatever comes next.”

Douglas’ heartfelt sentiments not only touched upon his illustrious career, they also symbolized the current state of...

HBO is getting into the Richard Gadd business.

The premium cable network has come on board Lions, the BBC drama series created by the Baby Reindeer creator and star.

The British public broadcaster unveiled the project in February, two months before Gadd became a massive international star thanks to the success of the Netflix dark dramedy, which is one of the streamer’s most-watched shows ever.

The new series asks “What does it mean to be a man?” When Niall’s estranged ‘brother’ Ruben shows up at his wedding, it leads to an explosion of violence that catapults us back through their lives. Spanning almost forty years from the 1980s to the present day, the series will cover the highs and lows of the brothers’ relationship, from them meeting as teenagers to their falling out as adults – with all the good, bad, terrible, funny, angry, and challenging moments along the way.

One of the most heartbreaking scenes in the Netflix crime drama Ferry: the Series is when Ferry loses his closest friend Marco. Previously, Ferry’s friendship with John, his brother-in-law, was beautifully depicted in the 2021 Netflix film. While in the series, Ferry’s connections with both John and Marco were brought forth masterfully. But sadly, in the constant battle of power and survival, Ferry had to lose one of them, which significantly devastated him. Let’s take a deep dive into both of these characters that Ferry had an amazing connection with.

Three-fourth of his 88-year-long life was spent in acting and of these, six and a half decades, over half, had Dev Anand playing the lead (romantic) role, even as his peers and even several of his leading ladies had moved on or out. In the process, Dev Anand ended up being paired against at least three generations of heroines, if not four, as he transitioned from his early days where his female co-lead was the bigger star to a time when most actresses were keen on working with him as he sauntered from success to success with that charming demeanour and the winning smile.

Liam Neeson thriller “The Marksman” defied pandemic norms with a three-month theatrical window. Five months after its release, it’s now available to rent at the standard-price $5.99 after a late-April Premium VOD debut. It claimed the #1 spot on all charts calculated after the mid-week shift. That includes FandangoNow, which ranks entries by the revenue accrued. That means it had more than triple the number of rentals as their #2 title, “Nobody,” which still costs $19.99.

VOD platforms otherwise saw ongoing success for familiar films, including “The Little Things.” The Denzel Washington action title was #1 at Spectrum, which as usual lags in reporting.

Noteworthy this week is the debut of three fresh titles, two of which are recent releases that went directly to standard pricing and saw immediate interest. “Together Together,” a comedy starring Patti Harrison and Ed Helms, and “French Exit” both saw traction. However, the real breakout is “North Hollywood,” apparently...
