Brittany Snow and Penn Badgley, who co-starred in the 2006 high school comedy John Tucker Must Die, said in this week’s episode of Badgley’s podcast Podcrushed that while they’ve heard there is a sequel in development, they have not been contacted about it.
News of a sequel script first surfaced in March during a John Tucker cast reunion panel at Epic Cons Chicago, where star Jesse Metcalfe and co-star Arielle Kebbel both confirmed one had been written and “we are very proud of it,” Kebbel said, confirming she was a producer on it.
At the time, all the assembled cast members — Metcalfe, Kebbel and Sophia Bush — confirmed they were game, but little has been said since on the project. So little in fact that Snow brought it up to Badgley on the most recently episode of his podcast.

Penn Badgley and Brittany Snow may not be returning for the John Tucker Must Die sequel, which is reportedly in the works.
During an episode of the You star‘s podcast, Podcrushed, the former co-stars revealed they haven’t been approached about reprising their roles for the second film.
“Penn, I don’t know if you’ve had a call, but I’ve gotten no call,” Snow said when asked if the reports of a sequel were true. Badgley replied, “Yeah, I’ve had no call, no. I mean, it’s maybe possible like the superposition quantum physics, like everything is potentially within the realm of, like, maybe this apple will fall up, I actually can’t say with certainty.”

"There's not a chance in hell this guy would make it through the night." Lionsgate has revealed an official trailer for a junk action thriller called Clear Cut, formerly known as Cold Deck. The title is a wildfire term for cutting down trees so they don't burn and spread the fire even further. A team of loggers discover a meth cook site in the middle of the forest and are forced to fight for their lives while hunted by a drug cartel. Set in the woods in the Pacific Northwest, a man crosses paths with a criminal band of madmen from his past intent on killing him before he can fight his way back to civilization. With Clive Standen, Lucy Martin, Jesse Metcalfe, Tom Welling, Lochlyn Munro, Chelsey Reist, Tom Stevens, Mike Dopud, plus Stephen Dorff and Alec Baldwin.

Lionsgate releases director Brian Skiba’s thriller feature theatrically and via digital and on-demand on July 19. Clive Standen, Lucy Martin, Jesse Metcalfe and Tom Welling also star in the movie that centers on Jack (Standen), who tries to leave his past behind him when he starts a logging job but finds that a team of criminals with a score to settle are out to kill him.
“Logging is the deadliest profession in the world,” Baldwin warns Standen in the trailer. “Sure you want to get into this line of work?”
Later, Baldwin is skeptical of Standen’s ability to keep up in the profession. “I had a greenhorn like you once before,” Baldwin tells him. “Couldn’t make it through his first day without screwing up.

In recent years, Lacey Chabert has been best known for her work in Hallmark films (she's starred in more than 30 of them).
But now, the queen of the small-screen rom-com is switching gears by associating herself with Hallmark's top competitor, Great American Pure Flix.
The faith-based streamer -- who would probably benefit from a catchier name -- announced today that it's acquired Chabert's 2014 film based on the Christian Mingle dating service.
The movie, titled -- you guessed it! -- Christian Mingle follows a formula that's probably pretty familiar to Hallmark fans.
But this is Pure Flix, baby! And that means there's be a religious twist on the usual tropes.
"In Christian Mingle, a marketing executive Gwyneth (Chabert) tries to find Mr. Right through a Christian dating service," reads a press release.

Audiences of all ages adore cozy mysteries.
Within the genre, Hallmark mysteries have reigned supreme for years.
The question is which Hallmark mystery movie franchises are the best.
The best cozies contain idyllic settings, well-established characters, and elements of romance and humor. They also need staying power, which is why the multi-movie series are usually the most popular.
With those points in mind, here's how several of them compare.
11. Martha's Vineyard Mysteries (2020–2021)
Jesse Metcalfe plays Jeff Jackson, a medically retired police detective living in the picturesque setting of Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts. He solves crimes with the help of a doctor and medical examiner, played by Sarah Lind.
This is one of the worst Hallmark mystery franchises in terms of believability. Characters repeatedly get away with things real-life doctors and cops could not do, such as freely sharing confidential information with multiple other characters.

“John Tucker Must Die” is being resurrected.
The beloved high school rom-com that had a Shakespearean revenge premise is getting the delayed-sequel treatment, according to one the original film’s stars Arielle Kebbel. She’ll not just reprise her role of Carrie in this one, but also produce.

‘Dancing With the Stars’ Fans Recall the Finale That Almost ‘Broke’ the Series: ‘No One Expected It’
Of all the memorable moments Dancing With the Stars has historically provided for its loyal viewers, there was one that topped them all. Viewers call this the finale that almost “broke the series,” claiming “no one expected” the outcome that sent the ballroom into a tizzy. Here are all the details.
‘DWTS’ fans recall the finale that almost ‘broke’ the series
Fan votes were always critical to Dancing With the Stars success. They remain an integral part of getting celebrities to the next round of the competition.
However, there was a time when voting was unlimited for fans of a particular star. Rumors of over-voting for a specific celebrity were not uncommon. But there was no more circumstance of that happening when, during Dancing With the Stars season 27, the finale results shocked viewers and the season’s finalists.
Bobby Bones was declared the season’s champion after scoring 8s weekly alongside pro Sharna Burgess.

The Malibu Triathlon is on.
The Malibu City Council voted to allow the triathlon to go ahead this weekend after the fate of the event was in question over permitting issues as a result of an altered course that was designed as a way to protect an endangered fish species that have taken residence in a key underpass on the route.
The vote — a 4-0 tally with council member Bruce Silverstein abstaining — came at the tail end of a marathon city council meeting that started on Monday night and stretched past midnight due to a lengthy docket and a series of pleas from triathlon supporters. The Malibu Triathlon, a fundraiser for Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, will take place on Saturday and Sunday. In a statement received by The Hollywood Reporter, triathlon officials thanked the Malibu City Council for “working with us” to ensure the event could go on as planned.

Cheryl Burke is weighing in on the comments her former “Dancing With the Stars” fellow pro dancer Sharna Burgess recently made about difficult dance partners.
Burke — who has been promoting her new iHeartRadio podcast “Sex, Lies, and Spray Tans” — spoke to Et Canada’s Sangita Patel, insisting anyone wanting to know who her “least favourite” partner was would have to tune in to her podcast.
She did say “he’s a male” when asked for a hint.
“I mean, she made it pretty obvious, right? Like she did say after she won with Bobby Bones, so, I mean, you guys just need to Google it.”
The star then said of Burgess’ comments, which people have assumed are about Jesse Metcalfe: “She’s actually going to be my next guest. I’m interviewing her at the iHeart Music Festival in Vegas very soon in a few days here. Her and...

The Season 27 winner discussed her history with the show on the first episode of her new iHeartRadio podcast, “Old-Ish,” claiming that while she took off Season 31 when she had a baby, she was expecting to be invited back this year — and was not called.

Oh yes, Lifetime is back covering another V.C. Andrews Saga.
And we're back with our reviews of this utter madness. We're kicking off the cutthroat Cutlers saga with V.C. Andrews' Dawn this time.
And the generational battle of the badass blonds was deliciously epic and entertaining.
It wouldn't be a V.C. Andrews special without scandalous family secrets, shady rich people, incestual relationships worth side-eying, and deliciously evil women.
But dare one say they were fairly light on some of those things, which was a bit of a surprise.
Another surprise was just how enjoyable Dawn Longchamp Cutler (?) was as a protagonist.
No offense to some of the other V.C. Andrews' girlies, ahem, Heaven, let's be real, it's freaking Heaven, but for the most part, Dawn at least seemed like she had full control of the brain cell at all times, if you catch my drift.

Fortunately, TV Fanatic got the opportunity to jump on Zoom with star, Bassinger, to discuss what it was like to play the film's titular role as we follow her through her journey from adolescence through adulthood.

Donna Mills’ most famous TV part is undoubtedly the manipulative Abby Fairgate Cunningham Ewing Sumner, whom she deliciously played for nine seasons (1980-89) on CBS’s primetime soap Knots Landing. But the actress says that even Abby might run and hide from powerful hotel owner Lillian Cutler in Lifetime’s limited series V.C. Andrews’ Dawn, premiering Saturday, July 8. “People say to me, ‘You’re used to playing the bad girl because you played Abby.’ And I say, ‘Lillian is way badder!’” In the premiere, Lillian’s nastiness is unleashed on innocent teen Dawn Longchamp, who learns that she’s really the presumed-dead Eugenia Cutler, and the humble “parents” she grew up with (played by Jesse Metcalfe and Helena Marie) abducted her as a baby. Being a minor, Dawn has no choice but to be separated from her loving brother, Jimmy (Khobe Clarke), and move in with grandmother Lillian, who quickly...

Within the first half-hour of the Lifetime limited series V.C. Andrews’ Dawn — premiering Saturday, July 8 at 8/7c — we learn that the titular teen’s parents kidnapped her as a baby, she’s a member of the ruthless and wealthy Cutler family, her high school crush is really her biological brother, and the boy raised as her sibling is her new love interest.
It’s the kind of twisted drama one would expect from the author who also gave us Flowers in the Attic, another salacious tale about an affluent household that won’t let familial relations get in the way of love.

‘Desperate Housewives’ star Eva Longoria says the long-running TV hit show would be cancelled in this era for its racy and controversial themes. As per Deadline, Longoria, 48, told Entertainment Tonight that the show had story lines that would cause outrage today.
Longoria played Gabrielle Solis, an ex-model in an unhappy marriage, in the show.
“I don’t know if we could do the show today,” she said. “I think we’d get cancelled. I mean, not cancelled on TV, but like cancelled in culture, because it was so groundbreaking. We said and did so many things that were shocking at the time.”
Despite that, Longoria said she wouldn’t mind a reboot. “I’d be the first one to sign up. I’d probably be the only one.”
Longoria was part of the ensemble that included Teri Hatcher (Susan Mayer), Felicity Huffman (Lynette Scavo) and Marcia Cross (Bree van de Kamp) in the show.

New mom and dad Gina Rodriguez and Joe LoCicero had a special night out on Friday when they attended the premiere of the Disney+ and Hulu original movie "Flamin' Hot." The couple welcomed their first child, a son named Charlie, in March. Since then, the "Not Dead Yet" star and her husband have been enjoying parenthood, but they made time for their first red carpet appearance since welcoming Charlie in honor of Eva Longoria's feature-film directorial debut.
Rodriguez and LoCicero appeared to be having a blast as they cuddled and kissed in snaps from the event. The new mom even managed to squeeze in two "Jane the Virgin" reunions, too. Not only did she pose with Longoria, who directed an episode of The CW hit, she also reunited with her TV dad, Jaime Camil.

Eva Longoria may just now be making her feature film directorial debut with Flamin’ Hot, but she’s been laying the groundwork for nearly 20 years — all the way back to her breakout role on Desperate Housewives.
After a decade of directing TV episodes for shows including Black-ish, Jane the Virgin and Gordita Chronicles, Longoria noted that for Flamin’ Hot “all of my TV experience paid off because we move at a very ambitious, fast pace and this movie was very ambitious in our scheduling. I really think wow, all of my 10 years in TV prepared me for this moment, which is a film set.”
“And I used Desperate Housewives as my film school, that’s where I really learned everything,” she continued at Friday’s Los Angeles premiere of the movie, which tells the story of Richard Montañez, a Frito Lay janitor who says he came up with the idea for Flamin’ Hot Cheetos.

It's been nearly 20 years since Gabrielle Solis ogled her teenage gardener, John Rowland, in the 2004 premiere of ABC's hit dramedy "Desperate Housewives." But on Friday night, it was like no time at all had passed when Eva Longoria and Jesse Metcalfe reunited on the red carpet for the premiere of her directorial debut, "Flamin' Hot." The former costars greeted each other like old friends and gamely posed for a series of nostalgic photos.
Longoria and Metcalfe smiled, laughed, and even held hands during their red carpet reunion. The sweet snaps are a reminder that even though the former costars often go long stretches without seeing one another, they always show up for each other when it matters the most. For instance, when Metcalfe appeared on "Dancing With the Stars" in 2020, Longoria was quick to support her pal.
"She's always been a very supportive and loving friend," Metcalfe told Hello! at the time.

“So obviously that’s why the script was sent to me. Brian Eggerson had written a spec script; he had come across this amazing true story. He thought it would make a wonderful screenplay and he was right. When I read it, I honestly couldn’t believe what I was reading. I couldn’t put it down, it was such a page-turner.
