The last time Trekkies saw Admiral Janeway (Kate Mulgrew) in live-action was via a video call to Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart) in 2002's "Star Trek: Nemesis." In animation, however, we've been spoiled with the volume of Janeway in recent years. In "Star Trek: Prodigy," a holographic version of Janeway, also played by Mulgrew, served as an ersatz mother figure for the show's teenage protagonists. The real-world Janeway also eventually became involved in the action, and she too was impressed with Dal (Brett Grey), Gwyn (Ella Purnell), and the rest of the Protostar teens, to the point where she helps them apply to Starfleet Academy. In the show's second and final season, Janeway even lead a quest to rescue her old first officer, Captain Chakotay (Robert Beltran), and brought the "Prodigy" kids along.
While there are currently no plans to bring Janeway back to "Star Trek" after the end of "Prodigy,...

While fans of the Showtime series Yellowjackets (read our review of season 2 Here) patiently wait to see the bonus episode that’s going to air sometime between the second and third seasons, the third season of the show has already been filming in Canada for months now, aiming for a 2025 premiere. As cameras continue to roll, Variety has learned that Community‘s Joel McHale has joined the cast, taking on a guest star role. Details on the character McHale will be playing have not been revealed.
Yellowjackets is described as “equal parts survival epic, horror story, and coming-of-age drama.” The story centers on a team of wildly talented high school girls soccer players who become the (un)lucky survivors of a plane crash deep in the Ontario wilderness. The series will chronicle their descent from a complicated but thriving team to warring, cannibalistic clans, while also tracking the lives they...

Yellowjackets has a bit of a cult following and so do the actors involved with the show! Now it’s been confirmed that Joel McHale will be joining the cast for season three.
The Paramount+ with Showtime series released season two on the streaming service back in early 2023 and renewed the show for a third season before season two even premiered.
Variety reports Joel McHale will be joining the already star-studded cast that features Ella Purnell, Melanie Lynskey, Christina Ricci, Sammi Hanratty, and many more. While not much is known about Joel’s character, in a show like Yellowjackets, anything can happen!
Yellowjackets follows a high school soccer team that, on their flight to an away game, end up in a plane crash in the Canada wilderness. The series jumps between the past (1996) and the present day (2021) with two actors playing a younger and older version of the same leading characters.

Actress Ella Purnell recently spoke about her experience working with renowned director Tim Burton on the 2016 fantasy film “Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children.” Purnell, who gained prominence through roles in shows like “Yellowjackets” and “Fallout,” said the Burton film was her big break. She reflected on Burton’s intense focus and creative vision during production.
Purnell described Burton as having an unwavering focus on his craft. She said he would be “thinking all the time” and rarely made eye contact during conversations as his mind focused on the creative process. Purnell added that Burton has “such vision” and is constantly immersed in the world he creates for his films.
The actress said Burton’s preparation was extremely thorough. He knew the characters and story inside and out. This allowed Burton to give actors space to develop their roles but also provide guidance when needed. “He will always let you...

Something went viral on social media over the last week, and I kind of hate it.
The video is a faux trailer for a “live-action” movie adaptation of The Simpsons, featuring a succession of famous actors as the main Simpsons characters.
Amongst those at play are Adam Sandler as Homer Simpson, and Kristen Wiig as Marge. Jacob Tremblay “plays” Bart, McKenna Grace portrays Lisa, and Will Ferrell stands in for Ned Flanders.
Steve Buscemi plays C. Montgomery Burns, Neil Patrick Harris as Smithers, Ben Stiller as Moe, and John C. Reilly as Barney. Steve Carell is Principal Skinner, Zach Galifianakis is Chief Wiggum, and Kumail Nanjiani is Apu.

Sky Studios CEO Cecile Frot-Coutaz has said there is “no scenario” in which its pay-tv customers will not have access to content from Warner Bros. Discovery streamer Max when it launches in the UK.
Sky has been the sole home of HBO content in the UK for many years, but it is widely expected Wbd will move the content to its own streamer when their current output deal ends in 2025. Wbd has not officially set a date for a UK launch, but senior exec J.B. Perrette said earlier this year it would “crazy” not to go direct-to-consumer in the UK.
With that backdrop, speculation has been rampant about what the future of the Sky-Wbd partnership will look like, with both sides making positive noises about an agreement without clearly outlining what shape it could take.

Star Trek: Prodigy, Yellowjackets, Arcane, and Fallout. All hit shows and one actress has been a part of all of them. And that would be the one and only Ella Purnell! She's such a talent and has been a part of so many great projects that we all enjoy. Of course it's probably Fallout on Prime Video that has become a breakout role of sorts for the actress. But no one can deny the amazing other productions and roles she's been a part of.

Fallout Star Details 'Challenging' Episode That Convinced Cast the Show Would Be a Hit - Main Image

Ella Purnell Recalls 'Intense' Filming For the Sake of 'Making Something Cool'
The live-action adaptation of the hit video game wouldn't have been brought to life on Prime if it weren't for the main cast committing to their roles. In this case, Ella Purnell, who played Lucy MacLean in Fallout, recently shared the difficult set days they had for season 1.
"It was so tough. It was 100 degrees," Purnell recalled, the episode where co-star Walton Goggins (Ghoul) had layers of prosthetics and had to fight the giant 15-foot mutated salamander, "They could not have put him in more clothes if they tried.

Fresh from its hugely impressive haul of nine Emmy nominations for hit Apple TV+ show “Slow Horses,” powerhouse producers See-Saw Films has unveiled a slate of new literary options also being developed for TV.
The British/Australian company, which in recent years has demonstrated its ability to amass acclaim, awards and audiences on the big screen and small, has landed the rights to three pieces of IP, including one that has already proved a hit on stage.
Playwright Benedict Lombe’s epic romance “Shifters” — starring “Supacell” lead Tosin Cole and “The Power” actress Heather Ageypong — is currently in the process of transferring to the West End after a sellout run at the Bush Theater (and with Idris Elba recently joining the play’s lineup of producers). But it’s now also being adapted by Lombe for TV with See-Saw, with plans to take the story beyond the stage play and into a returning series.

Ella Purnell was last seen as the ever-optimistic Lucy in Amazon Prime Video’s live-action adaptation of the game Fallout. The show received positive responses from critics and fans alike, with Purnell’s performance being lauded. She also became a viral meme due to her character arc in the show.
However, all that fame might be at stake for the actress who will be starring in a bizarre horror comedy. Purnell will be leading the cast of the film The Scurry along with Rhys Ifans and Paapa Essiedu. It is reportedly a horror comedy that features a group of deranged squirrels attacking a park.

From finding the right locations and cast to adapt its video game source material to combining visual effects and practical sets to bring Prime Video’s original story to life, developing “Fallout” into a hit TV show was a “high-wire act across the board,” Jonathan Nolan admitted.
Speaking in a behind-the-scenes featurette, exclusively debuting with TheWrap in the video below, the executive producer and director laid out how the production team’s hard work paid off. For starters, the Prime Video series became one of the streamer’s most watched titles and earned a total 16 Emmy Award nominations, including Outstanding Drama Series.

When a franchise or actor makes their mark in Pop-Culture history, most of us, if not all of us, definitely want some memorabilia. While Comic-Cons are usually filled to the brim with fans scouting for the best clothing, props and even action figures, some folks wait hours in line trying to get a close-up look at their favorite guests at these conventions. So, if Mark Hamill, the legendary Luke Skywalker actor, is handing out autographs, you’d best believe Star Wars fans would be clamoring to get there first.

Picture this: Deadpool, Wolverine, and a multiverse of chaos. Now, add Nicolas Cage’s fiery Ghost Rider and Ben Affleck’s brooding Daredevil to the mix—sounds like the comic book crossover of our dreams, right? Well, apparently, it almost happened! Concept art for Deadpool & Wolverine teased the possibility of these two Marvel icons joining the fray, and fans are buzzing about what could have been.

Ghost Rider in the comics | Marvel Comics
It’s the kind of wild, star-studded team-up that could have blown the MCU wide open. Sadly, it’s a massive missed opportunity that has us wishing for what could have been. Could we still see Cage and Affleck in Secret Wars? Fingers crossed for some multiverse magic!

Netflix suffered a major blow as some of its most anticipated shows have been leaked online due to a disastrous data breach. Among all of the leaks are the first five episodes of the highly anticipated second season of Arcane.
The Netflix anime series initially came out with its first season in 2021 and the fans have been waiting for nearly three years for the second season to come out now some footage from the first five episodes of the much-awaited series has been leaked online in poor quality. Ironically, the studio said their desire to focus on quality was the reason for such a long wait between the two seasons.
Arcane fans had recently heard that their favorite series will be coming back in November for its second and final season, but these poor-quality leaks have forced them to dodge spoilers for a few months. The upcoming season will consist of nine episodes in total,...

“I’ve always felt throughout my career that you can always get the audience to a slightly darker place if you tell them a couple of jokes along the way,” says Fallout executive producer/director Jonathan Nolan about the approach and tone the multi-Emmy-nominated Prime Video drama has taken in its debut season.
Joined by fellow EP and co-showrunner Graham Wagner and star Walton Goggins, Nolan was speaking at Deadline’s virtual Contenders Television: The Nominees event.
Portlandia alum Wagner agrees with Nolan’s Pov on mixed-genre storytelling.
“I think that good drama has humor, and it always has,” the showrunner says. “As we’ve sort of seen in the last 20 years, great calamities can happen, and humans are still going to be idiosyncratic, weird and a little, I don’t love the word quirky, but little quirky.”

For generations in Hollywood, where films span from dramatic roles to whimsical comedies, actors have often sought fresh and unconventional challenges leading to both critical acclaim and curious experiments. One such leap into the unknown came from Cate Blanchett when she took on the role of Lilith in Eli Roth’s recently released video game adaptation Borderlands.

“Fallout” production designer Howard Cummings just received his sixth Emmy nomination in a category that covers a lot of territory and is also a mouthful: Best Production Design for a Narrative Period or Fantasy Program (One Hour or More). But as a fellow nominee pointed out, he might have an edge here.
“What’s funny is my Emmy category is a period and fantasy category, so they’re very disparate people in it. But one of my friends who designed one of the other shows called me up and went, ‘You’re actually the only one who actually covers both sides of that, by the way,'” Cummings tells Gold Derby (watch the exclusive video interview above). “I was like, ‘Yeah, it is. Because of the retrofuturism, it’s also period, but it’s also sci-fi.”

Netflix and animated series have a love-hate relationship. Netflix loves to make them, but people hate to see them. Not every series, however, is bad as Ella Purnell’s 2021 series Arcane turned out to be one of the best.

For a while, Zack Snyder was building a cinematic universe for the Netflix streaming service that centered on his zombie movie Army of the Dead. The film was quickly followed by a prequel called Army of Thieves, a sequel called Planet of the Dead was being written, and an anime series called Army of the Dead: Lost Vegas was in the works. But Snyder has since shifted his focus over to building a multi-media universe around his Rebel Moon sci-fi movies – and The Wrap has revealed that Netflix “quietly canceled” plans for an Army of the Dead Universe.
In an article on the Rebel Moon films that features interviews with Snyder and his wife and producing partner Deborah Snyder, The Wrap mentions, “Army of the Dead, a movie the Snyders made for Netflix before Rebel Moon, had a similarly ambitious (universe/franchise) plan, with several sequels and spin-offs in the works,...

Starz has a new series coming our way and I am very excited about this one! The series is titled Sweetpea and it is a dark comedy-drama (which happens to be one of my favorite genre combos) that stars Ella Purnell, who can most recently be seen starring in Prime Video’s Fallout.
If you’re just as excited as I am about Sweetpea, I share everything we know so far about it. Including when and where to watch, the cast, and more!
Set to premiere on Starz, the series Sweetpea is based on author Cj Skuse’s 2017 book of the same name. The story follows Rhiannon Lewis (Purnell), a young woman who is bored with her uneventful life and tired of her being ignored. Rhiannon is lost in crowds, forgotten by peers, and passed over for promotions at work. She is in a relationship, well...sort of? The guy...

"People don't really see me. Like, not at all, actually." Sky TV has revealed the first look teaser trailer for a dark comedy series called Sweetpea, arriving for streaming in the UK and US this fall. "The girl everyone overlooks might just be able to get away with murder." This series is based on the book of the same name written by Cj Skuse, the first in a series of books about a sweet young woman who starts killing people. The TV series is described as "a deviously twisted coming-of-'rage' story." Ella Purnell who also serves as executive producer, stars as Rhiannon, a quiet wallflower who develops a vengeful and intoxicatingly liberating taste for murder. The series cast includes Nicôle Lecky, Jon Pointing, Calam Lynch, Leah Harvey, Jeremy Swift, Dustin Demri-Burns, and Luke McGibney. Only 30 seconds of footage in here so far, not much beyond a quick intro to Purnell's character.

Sky has unleashed the first teaser trailer for its upcoming “coming-of-rage” series, Sweetpea, starring Ella Purnell. Take a look:
Fresh off the success of Prime Video’s Fallout, Ella Purnell will next appear in Sky’s new series, which the broadcaster has labelled a “coming-of-rage” story.
Sweetpea is based on Cj Skuse’s novel of the same name and stars Purnell as Rhiannon, a shy and quiet woman who’s pushed over the edge, with murderous consequences.
Take a look at the first Sweetpea trailer below.
Now that’s how you do a proper teaser trailer. Running for a mere 26 seconds, it only hints at the series’ conflict. Purnell’s Rhiannon is seen neglected and ignored by the people around her and clearly, something happens to make her lose control as we see her covered in blood.

Ella Purnell, who also serves as executive producer, said, “I truly cannot wait for the world to meet Sweetpea! I’ve loved exploring this incredibly complex character, as well as working alongside our dynamic cast and powerhouses Ella Jones, Kristie Swain, and Patrick Walters.”
The actress continued: “This has been one of the most fulfilling experiences of my career so far. At its core, the series is about a woman finally finding her voice, told through a uniquely dark and comedic lens. I hope audiences have as much fun going on Rhiannon Lewis’ wild, coming-of-rage journey as we did bringing it to life.”

No one does murder quite like Ella Purnell. The “Yellowjackets” and “Fallout” actress next leads the upcoming Starz series “Sweetpea,” which is billed as a “deviously twisted coming-of-rage story.”
Purnell stars as Rhiannon, a quiet wallflower who develops a vengeful and intoxicatingly liberating taste for murder after her life is upended. She’s overlooked for a promotion at work, the guy she likes won’t commit, and her dad is sick.
So how does Rhiannon cope? Well, according to this first teaser, all it takes is a cathartic scream and blood on her hands to cleanse her anger. Nicôle Lecky, Jon Pointing, Calam Lynch, Leah Harvey, Jeremy Swift, and Dustin Demri-Burns co-star.
“Army of the Dead” alum Purnell returns to Starz after starring in another “sweet” series: The actress previously led the adaptation of Stephanie Danler’s novel “Sweetbitter” at the network back in 2018. Now, Purnell is both the lead...

Here’s a first look at buzzy Sky/Starz series Sweetpea starring Fallout’s Ella Purnell.
Penned and EP’d by Pure writer Kirstie Swain, Sweetpea follows Rhiannon Lewis, who doesn’t make much of an impression – people walk past her in the street without a second glance, she’s continually overlooked for a promotion at work, the guy she likes won’t commit, and her dad is really sick. But when she’s pushed over the edge and loses control, the wallflower is gone, replaced by a young woman capable of anything.
The series, which will launch in October, is based on the cult novel by C.J. Skuse. Starz jumped aboard as U.S. co-producer last month and Power of the Dog maker See-Saw Films is producing with its new Patrick Walters-led label fanboy.

Skynet is making its return: the trailer for the Netflix animated series “Terminator Zero” has been revealed.
The series follows the aftermath of Skynet, an AI being, gaining consciousness and waging its war against humanity in “Terminator 2: Judgment Day.” It becomes self-aware on Aug. 29, 1997, after which a war rages on for decades.
“Terminator Zero” is set in 2022 and follows a soldier, Eiko (Rosario Dawson), who is sent back in time to change the fate of humanity. She journeys back to 1997 to protect a scientist named Malcolm Lee (André Holland), who is working on another AI system, Kokono (Sonoya Mizuno) to compete with Skynet. Although it exists in the Terminator universe, it centers entirely around new characters.
The trailer sees Lee attempting to save the Earth from Skynet, while being hunted down by an assassin from the future.

Starz president of programming Kathryn Busby believes “there’s no set answer” to a media company’s success amid a contracted Hollywood marketplace. But for the premium cable network and streamer, an adults-only identity helps keep its slate focused as competitors struggle to define their strategies with less money to spend on new shows.
Like many Hollywood distributors, Starz has made tough calls to adjust to industry changes. The network recently canceled a number of original series — including the Stephen Amell-led “Heels,” and comedies “Blindspotting,” “Run the World” and “Minx” — to prepare for a planned separation from its parent company Lionsgate that will be official by the end of this year.
Still the network’s upcoming slate is full of promising originals, including the Shailene Woodley-led limited series “Three Women” (which it picked up after Showtime dropped it from their slate); a new talk show hosted by rapper...

Music supervisor Trygge Toven received his first Emmy nomination for his work on “Fallout” and he found out about it in a very cliched way. “”I’ve been working with a PR film … and they gave me a call. I got the fun call right in the morning that the actors talk about,” Toven tells Gold Derby (watch the exclusive video interview above). “I love the show, but you just never know what to expect when awards go, so it’s pretty exciting,”
“Fallout” was a “Westworld” reunion for Toven as executive producer Jonathan Nolan, composer Ramin Djawadi and a majority of the edit team worked on both. “It’s definitely a shorthand. There’s a little less setup,” Toven explains. “This was different than ‘Westworld’ because of the way we used music. Ramin would actually do covers of the songs in ‘Westworld,’ so that was a different process. It...

Gold Derby can exclusively reveal that Walton Goggins is entering the “Fallout” episode “The Ghouls” as his 2024 Emmy Award submission for Best Drama Actor. “The Ghouls” aired on April 10, 2024, and is the fourth episode of the Amazon Prime Video drama’s first season.
In “The Ghouls”: The Ghoul (Goggins) encounters his friend Roger (Neal Huff), a ghoul on the brink of going feral. He kills Roger and cannibalizes him in front of Lucy (Ella Purnell). The Ghoul takes Lucy to an abandoned supermarket. He trades her to a gang of organ harvesters for replacement chems but collapses before the trade is complete. About to be cut open, Lucy fights back and frees the captive ghouls held by the harvesters. The feral ghouls attack her and the gang, and Lucy is forced to kill for the first time. She leaves, but not before giving the Ghoul the chems he needs.

Naoki Urasawa’s way of expressing his story is one that is most definitely unique, especially with the channeling of mystery and that wasn’t something lost to Arcane’s Studio either. The first season easily scored a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and with the way each character was handled and shown, no one was complaining.

Arcane has proven in one season what it means to nail animated adaptations of video games successfully. It was one of the rare few to do so and only then was the list increasing more and more with Fallout and The Last of Us coming into the picture. While it still has the advantage of an animated medium, there was much depth in it that made it as good as any, no matter the form.

What was initially a plan for a Star Wars film rejected by Disney seems to have transformed into the worst flop in the career of director and writer Zack Snyder, as the recently released Rebel Moon – Part Two: The Scargiver, the sequel to Rebel Moon, is once again panned by critics, with the ratings listing it as Snyder’s worst movie – yes, worse than even the horrible Sucker Punch and the first part of Rebel Moon.
But, it seems that this won’t be stopping Snyder from expanding his franchise, as per the most recent reports. We know that Snyder and his writers are currently working on the script for a third movie if Netflix decides to make it, but a new project is coming sooner than expected and in a very unexpected format.

Zack Snyder’s reputation as a filmmaker has become very divisive since his tenure in the DC universe. While he has loyal fans, many do not enjoy his unique take on beloved IPs and characters. The director tried his hand at Star Wars-inspired sci-fi with the two Rebel Moon films on Netflix.

While the films had an ambitious vision and scope, the underwhelming executive and boring characters led to them becoming two of the worst-reviewed Snyder films. With the director’s cut of the films coming next month, a spinoff prequel in the form of a podcast has been announced but fans aren’t interested in the franchise anymore.

“Shōgun,” FX’s buzzy samurai drama of feudal Japan created by Rachel Kondo and Justin Marks, led all Emmys craft categories July 17 with 16 nominations. Next came “Fallout” (Prime Video), “True Detective: Night Country” (HBO), and “Only Murders in the Building” (Hulu) with 13 noms each.
After that it was spread out among “The Crown” (Netflix) and “The Bear” (FX) with nine; “Palm Royale” (Apple TV+), “Hacks” (Max), and “Ripley” (Netflix) with eight; “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” (Prime Video) and “Feud: Capote vs. The Swans” (FX) with six; “What We Do in the Shadows” (FX), “3 Body Problem” (Netflix), “Ahsoka” (Disney+/Lucasfilm), and “Lessons in Chemistry” (Apple TV+) with five; “Baby Reindeer” (Netflix) and “The Morning Show” (Apple TV+) with four; and “The Gilded Age” (HBO), “Loki” (Disney+/Marvel), “Masters of the Air” (Apple TV+), “Slow Horses” (Apple TV+), and “Reservation Dogs” (FX) — in its third and final season — with three.

Once again, the Emmy Awards nominations don’t include a slew of TV favorites. Among the most notable snubs: Emma Stone for Best Drama Actress and a complete shutout of her Showtime series “The Curse.” Equally surprising was “Shogun” supporting actresses Moeka Hoshi and Fumi Nikaido missing the ballot. On the comedy side, Netflix’s “The Gentlemen” missed for Comedy Series and a forecasted bid for its star Theo James. And although “The Bear” had a solid morning overall, Abby Elliott wasn’t able to ride the wave of fortune in Best Comedy Supporting Actress. Oliver Platt and Matty Matheson were also snubbed on the Supporting Actor side.
Below, we enumerate the top 50 Emmys snubs in our estimation. These were the shows and performers that we thought had a strong chance to number among this year’s nominees. Let us know if there are others missing from this list that...

Starz has landed the U.S. and Canada rights to a British revenge thriller starring Fallout’s Ella Purnell.
The premium cable outlet will air Sweetpea later this year. The drama is based on a 2017 novel by C.J. Skuse and stars Purnell as a quiet young woman who develops a taste for murder. Purnell is also an executive producer.
The series from See-Saw Films, Fanboy and Sky Studios is also set to air on Sky Atlantic in the U.K.
“We’re excited to partner again with Ella Purnell and Sky Studios on such a fresh, boundary-breaking story,” said Alison Hoffman, president domestic networks at Starz. “This darkly comedic tale of revenge is sure to thrill viewers, as is Ella’s performance as a woman who finds her voice and claims her agency in ways that are devious and shocking.”

Starz has acquired the U.S. and Canada rights to the deviously twisted coming-of-‘rage’ story Sweetpea, starring Ella Purnell, who will also serve as executive producer. Purnell stars as Rhiannon, a quiet wallflower who develops a vengeful and intoxicatingly liberating taste for murder.
Sweetpea is produced by See-Saw Films and fanboy in association with Sky Studios. The six-part series was acquired directly from Sky Studios and will debut in 2024 as a Starz original in the U.S. and Canada.
