[This story contains spoilers for the Prime Video film Role Play.]
The team behind the Prime Video action-comedy movie Role Play had initially intended to make things a little extra challenging for Kaley Cuoco and David Oyelowo’s lead characters before the lights went up.
Thomas Vincent, who directed the recent Amazon MGM Studios film from a script by Seth Owen, tells The Hollywood Reporter that there had been a planned final moment at the end in which Emma (Cuoco) gets a bit of a scare as husband Dave (Oyelowo) realizes that her high-risk lifestyle as a professional assassin might not actually be in the past.
“At some point, there was an epilogue in Mexico, and they were in their next life and in a restaurant,” Vincent recalls. “A bunch of big guys came in, like Mafia guys. Then, the boss, as soon as he sat down at a table, just had a heart attack and died. The two...

“The need for me to get my job right is incredibly intimidating,” David Oyelowo has said about his recent role in the hit series Lawmen: Bass Reeves. Not to worry: The actor is gripping and authentic as a former slave who develops incredible marksmanship skills when he’s drafted into the Confederate Army. After Reeves escapes, he becomes an officer of the law and a fighter for justice. We caught up with the busy Oyelowo (he’s also starring in Role Play this month with Kaley Cuoco) to find out which streaming shows have hit the bull’s-eye with him. This action-packed limited series from Yellowstone cocreator Taylor Sheridan takes a fascinating look back at real-life American frontiersman Bass Reeves (Oyelowo), the first Black deputy U.S. marshal west of the Mississippi.

Star Cast: Kaley Cuoco, David Oyelowo, Bill Nighy, and Connie Nielsen.
Director: Thomas Vincent
Role Play Movie Review Is Out! (Picture Credit: IMDb)
What’s Good: Cuoco and Oyelowo have enough charisma to carry the entire film on their shoulders, and it is actually fun to see them out of their comfort zone.
What’s Bad: The story is too predictable, and the plot might be copied from hundreds of other movies, but The Long Kiss Goodnight is not.
Loo Break: The middle of the movie sags a bit as the story tries to get to where the character makes their final decisions, but it could be more compelling.
Watch or Not?: Only watch if you are in the mood for something you have seen many times before.

How do you make a “rom-com” centered around a long-time married couple? Well, one idea would be to throw them a “curve”. With the Bracketts in this story, she’s forgotten their anniversary prompting him to take, well not desperate, but offbeat measures. Would it “spice” things up considerably, maybe rekindle those old sparks, if they pretended to be strangers meeting for the first time? But how could she have “blanked’ on the “big day”? For that answer, this new movie mixes in elements of an action flick. With that new twist, we learn that she indulges in many variations of Role Play.
Oh, the lady in question is Emma Brackett (Kaley Cuoco). At the start of the story, she’s on the job, donning a wig, and terminating a target. As in assassinate. From there she phones her handler Raj (Rudy Dharmalingam), and heads to the airport. In the next scene,...

Exclusive: Studiocanal and The Picture Company have entered into a new multi-year pact with the aim to make two-three films a year along with an infiltration into TV by Picture Company Co-Founders Andrew Rona & Alex Heineman.
The producers combined have made some of Studiocanal’s most successful films including the Liam Neeson thriller vehicles Unknown, Non-Stop and The Commuter, and they just released the Netflix action breakout Gunpowder Milkshake,. The films were all mid-level budget actioners that became profitable global hits for the studio. They’ll keep making those films for the Canal Plus library and Studiocanal’s streaming service output deals, but under the new deal, Rona and Heineman will lean into European theatrical co-productions and television for global audiences.
Studiocanal and the producers are in the early stages of a sequel on Navot Papushado’s Karen Gillan starrer, Gunpowder Milkshake, which was the number one streaming title overall...
