The Good Doctor is checking in with one of its original stars as the series winds down, and it doesn’t sound like good news is on the horizon.
A new promo released for the penultimate episode of the ABC medical drama shows Claire Browne (Antonia Thomas) on Shaun’s (Freddie Highmore) doorstep with a smile.
They’ve been friends since the series premiere, so Claire’s return to town should be a happy occasion.
The clip then cuts to Shaun telling Claire that the doctors found a lump on her breast.
He reveals that the initial biopsy was negative, but the footage then shows Claire revealing that she does have cancer.
The Good Doctor has a bad track record handling actor exits, with the show typically putting them through the wringer.
Antonia Thomas is back for the final two episodes of The Good Doctor

Avatar: The Last Airbender star Ian Ousley has recently revealed his desire to play Dcu’s Teen Titans role of Garfield Logan. The factory reset of DC Universe by James Gunn and Peter Safran has certainly opened doors for several actors to have their shot at DC Universe after the inception of Chapter 1, Gods and Monsters.

In the near future, Gunn might look to use the popular series, Teen Titan, with an entirely new cast. But ahead of that, Ousley revealed that he has been keen on playing Beast Boy— one of the primary characters of the superpowered teen band. However, fans are not quite so sure as they find another actor better suited for the role.

Season 14 of Rhonj finally returned to Bravo airwaves, with the drama once again at an all-time high.
However, it’s not just the women bringing the fighting, drama and yelling matches.
Once again, the men are in full force, flexing their muscles at the worst possible time.
Jenn Fessler’s birthday was the event for the latest blow-up involving John Fuda and Paul “Paulie” Connell, with Joe Gorga, of course, in the mix.
The scene had The Real Housewives of New Jersey fans taking aim at the men, especially after things got so heated that Dolores Catania forced Paulie to leave with her to de-escalate the situation.

Monday night is the first of a two-part finale for Deal or No Deal Island Season 1, and it promises to be a nail-biter.
Only four contestants are left: Amy McCoy, Dr. Stephanie Mitchell, and Jordan Fowler leaving Boston Rob Mariano as the lone guy.
Boston Rob is the fan favorite who has undoubtedly carried the show. Each week, fans quickly share their thoughts about how Rob is doing and how upset they will be if he goes home.
Deal or No Deal Island differs from the original show because it is featured on a tropical island. A “banker” sequestered in a yacht calls in with deals for the contestant in the hot seat.
Claudia Jordan, an early contestant, was great for continuity since she was on the original as a suitcase model. As previously reported on Monsters and Critics, fans have called her a “lucky charm” for the series.

Gore Verbinski would seem to have hit a snag in his big-budget blockbuster career after his Lone Ranger movie for Disney became a notoriously bloated flop. However, he was able to return with a smaller directorial effort after that, with the suspense film A Cure for Wellness. It has been eight years since the release of A Cure for Wellness, and Verbinski returns from his hiatus to helm an action-adventure film with the humorous title Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die. The movie sports an impressive cast, including Sam Rockwell, Michael Peña, Haley Lu Richardson, Zazie Beetz and Juno Temple. The film has just started production on location in South Africa.
The description of the movie’s plot, according to Deadline, reads, “The film, written by Matthew Robinson (Love & Monsters), centers on a man from the future (Rockwell) who arrives at a diner in Los Angeles where he must recruit...

The film, written by Matthew Robinson (Love & Monsters), centers on a man from the future (Rockwell) who arrives at a diner in Los Angeles where he must recruit the precise combination of eclectic patrons to join in him on a one-night quest to save the world.
Verbinsky is the director behind the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, The Ring and Rango. Rockwell is best known for his roles in Argylle, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri and Jojo Rabbit, while Richardson starred in HBO’s The White Lotus, Five Feet Apart and Columbus.

As soon as James Gunn and Peter Safran took over Dceu and rebooted it into Dcu we knew we were going to get a new Batman movie, ‘The Brave and the Bold.’ The biggest question on everyone’s mind is however, who is going to take over the role of Bruce Wayne, as it’s one of the most iconic roles aspiring actors can play in the genre.
Several names come to mind as favorite fan castings, most notably Alan Ritchson, who voiced his desire to play the character several times, quite loudly, and Jensen Ackles.
Jensen Ackles was picked for the most recent fan-made concept trailer to don the mantle of the Dark Knight alongside Timothee Chalamet as Robin. Ackles already voices the character in ‘Tomorowverse’ and he expressed his wish to play the live-action version of the character as well. The trailer shows how two popular actors could...

After one of its most polarizing seasons yet, The Real Housewives of Potomac is embracing change as filming for Season 9 gets underway.
As Monsters and Critics previously reported, Robyn Dixon and Candiace Dillard are departing, leaving fans with questions about who will be returning.
According to TV Deets, the cast has been finalized, and filming is set to start this month.
The outlet states that Nneka Ihim failed to secure a contract and will become one-and-done.
As a new cast member, Ihim was caught up in many arguments throughout her short stint on the Bravo reality series.
However, it doesn’t sound like producers are interested in bringing her back, perhaps because the show will attempt to bring in new women without connections to the other cast members.

Remakes are always a tricky proposition. Some of the greats both in the horror genre and elsewhere are actually remakes, whether it’s a loose one or not. Be it The Magnificent Seven coming from Seven Samurai or The Thing being birthed into imitation dog from the Christian Nyby and Howard Hawks original. I talk about The Thing A Lot but obviously it’s for a reason. You could also throw The Fly in that same category too while we are here. Those are some of the examples of the good but unfortunately, things can go downhill and fast. You have harmless ones like the Friday the 13th remake or Texas Chainsaw, the annoyingly unnecessary like Halloween and Amityville Horror, or the egregiously awful like The Fog and A Nightmare on Elm Street. Like them or loathe them, or in our case both, they are here to stay, and each...

Andy Cohen has been the face of The Real Housewives universe on Bravo since its launch in 2006, but according to a recent report, his tenure could soon conclude.
InTouchWeekly reports that Cohen, 55, is plotting his exit from the network due to “the fallout from mounting accusations by his stars.”
It hasn’t been a great year for Cohen after Leah McSweeney and Brandi Glanville named Cohen in recent lawsuits over his treatment of them and fellow cast members.
Many cast members have also spoken out in support of Cohen.
Given the recent controversy surrounding Cohen and the Real Housewives franchise, there have been rumblings for months that changes could be made to keep the franchise fresh.
Parting ways with Cohen, who also hosts the reunions for Below Deck, Summer House, and other Bravo shows, would be a significant shift, assuming it comes to fruition.

While the dual union strikes of the writers and the actors postponed some projects, once the studios and unions reached an agreement, there was a lot of catch-up to play. The postponed schedules meant that this year is seeing a delay in several releases. It also looks as if some studios are going to see some releases grouped together. According to The Hollywood Reporter, popular Netflix shows that would have seen a more dispersed schedule are now bunched for later 2024.
The latter half of the year will see the continuation of Netflix’s slate of popular original programming like the anticipated new season of Squid Game, the streaming platform’s biggest series of all time. The schedule will also premiere The Night Agent as well as the final season of the popular Karate Kid sequel series, Cobra Kai. The new season of Outer Banks is also on the dock, plus...

1939 is often called Hollywood’s Greatest Year, and it is indisputable that a huge number of America’s greatest classics were produced in that single year. A usually ignored element of that greatness is that 1939 was also the year that Hollywood resumed production on horror films after a two-year pause. In late 1936 two major factors led to the practical death of the genre: the Laemmle family, of whom Carl Laemmle’s, Jr. was horror’s greatest advocate, lost control of Universal and the British Board of Censors began enforcing the “H” certificate, which for all practical purposes banned horror for its target audience in Britain. The loss of this lucrative market combined with dropping box-office receipts and mounting pressure from American religious groups, Hollywood saw no reason to continue producing horror. The phrase “horror is dead” has often been thrown around over the decades but in 1937 and 38, it was actually true.

The One Piece manga began publication in 1997 and is still ongoing, with Eiichiro Oda continuing the adventures of Monkey D. Luffy and his Straw Hat Pirates. The series is part of the “Big Three,” alongside Bleach and Naruto, and is one of the most popular and most important animanga titles in history. But, as you might have assumed, One Piece is not Oda’s first work. In fact, the whole world of One Piece was born from a one-shot manga, Monsters, that came out earlier and which featured prototypes of the current characters we’re following in One Piece!
While not as popular as One Piece, Monsters is regarded by many as a cult classic work and an important work in the development of Oda’s big masterpiece, which is why we frequently report on it. This time, we are celebrating the upcoming special DVD release of the Monsters anime adaptation,...

Such easter eggs are present in other works as well, not just movies, but this discussion is about a very special easter egg that potentially connects two big franchises created by Pixar.
The first one is Toy Story, which basically launched Pixar into orbit and became a critically acclaimed and beloved animated franchise with a fifth installment on the way, while the second one is Monsters, Inc., a very popular series as well which managed to become a standalone franchise with some beloved moments and characters. And while Pixar has never officially connected any of its individual animated universes, some fans think that a Monsters, Inc. easter egg confirms...

Eiichiro Oda’s one-shot manga Monsters recently got an anime adaptation with the title Monsters: 103 Mercies Dragon Damnation which was released on January 21 on Netflix. The series revolved around the story of Shimotsuki Ryuma from One Piece, who was known for defeating a dragon all by himself. He is considered to be the strongest swordsman to ever exist in the One Piece universe.

The anime adaptation was directed by Sunghoo Park, who is a South Korean animator and director. He is majorly known for directing the first season of Gege Akutami’s Jujutsu Kaisen anime.

In early 2022, Disney announced a brand new kart racing game in partnership with developer and publisher Gameloft called Disney Speedstorm. The game lets players take control of different Disney and Pixar characters and race across tracks based on various Disney and Pixar films. Several films and franchises, such as Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, Frozen, Monsters Inc., and Toy Story, are represented.
The game launched in September 2023. While it operated under the free-to-play model, it encouraged players to buy in-game currency to unlock more content. All content could be earned through player progression without paying.
In each new season in the game, new content is added and can be purchased through passes using in game tokens that can be either bought with real world money or earned in game. The upcoming seventh season will be Wreck-it-Ralph themed and will feature five new racers and a new track.

Last week’s nailbiter of a Deal or No Deal Island episode had one young contestant swearing off social media because of the drama involved.
Aron Barbell took the elimination of Alyssa Klinzing by Dr. Stephanie Mitchell so hard that he cried and stormed off, saying he had an anxiety attack and could not take it anymore.
Aron made a heartfelt post on Instagram explaining that watching the scenes again was hard for him and that he’d be off social media because of the aftermath.
The next episode airs Monday nights at 8 p.m. Eastern, and a teaser NBC shared on Youtube has Aron’s good friend Boston Rob Mariano stepping up to console him.
Boston Rob has taken Aron under his wing in the game and in real life. A few weeks ago, Aron vacationed with Rob and his family and even met other Survivor players.

Plot: Infected by the bite of a werewolf, a man sets out to bring down a shady businessman before arranging the end of his own life.
Review: Larry Fessenden has over 100 acting credits to his name, and if you’ve been following the horror genre over the last few decades there’s a good chance you’ve seen him show up in something, whether it be a Ti West movie, Stake Land, Late Phases, You’re Next, or the movie I first noticed him in, Session 9. He’s also a prolific producer, and has directing credits stretching back to the 1980s – most of those credits being on horror movies. Over the course of his career, he has told stories of vampires, the Wendigo, a man-eating fish, and even came up with his own take on Frankenstein’s Monster with his 2019 film Depraved. Continuing down the path of putting his stamp on the concept of classic monsters,...

Zig Zag, UK Producer Behind ‘I Wanna Marry Harry’ & ‘Danny Dyer’s Deadliest Men,’ Declared Insolvent
Exclusive: Zig Zag, the 25-year-old UK producer behind shows including Fox’s I Wanna Marry Harry, is shutting its production arm after being hit by the unscripted commissioning drought.
Zig Zag is putting Zig Zag Productions Limited into insolvency as part of a financial restructuring that has resulted in six employees being made redundant.
The company, founded in 1999 by Danny Fenton, has appointed an administrator following a meeting with creditors on Wednesday. The insolvency company will be announced shortly.
Deadline understands that Zig Zag had three shows greenlit last year, worth as much as £4.5M ($5.6M), but the series were delayed indefinitely amid uncertain market conditions.
Zig Zag’s other companies, including Zig Zag Holdings and Zig Zag Media Rights, will continue trading, meaning it is not inconceivable that the brand will live on if commissions come to fruition.
Zig Zag is not currently in production so no shows are at risk.

They don’t make kids programming like they used to. It used to be that nearly every animated kids title came with jokes for the adults to get and the kids to grow into, in addition to age-appropriate gags and life lessons for the younger viewers. Nowadays, kids programming doesn’t seem to reflect a belief that young viewers can get a well-written joke. But that’s not the case with Monsters at Work. The Disney animated series, which debuts its second season on Friday, April 5 on Disney Channel and Friday, May 5 on Disney+, has original Monsters, Inc. stars Billy Crystal and John Goodman voicing Mike Wazowski and Sulley once more. Crystal tells TV Insider that the little green guy (who he calls “CBS walking”) is his favorite character he’s ever played. Crystal and his co-stars all sang the praises of this series to TV Insider, saying it’s...

A new rumor from X poster Scott Gustin seemingly indicates that Disney is filing permits for work behind the Magic Kingdom for a future expansion. It could also just be work in the area. But many are thinking Disney is going to try to start work on the “Beyond Thunder Mountain” area they teased at Destination D23 in 2022.
During that presentation, they teased areas for “Coco,” “Encanto,” and Disney Villains. Most people want to see Disney Villains, and with Epic Universe at Universal Orlando bringing the Dark Universe featuring Universal Monsters, it would be a great idea to compete head-to-head.
Currently, “Encanto” has been moved to the blue sky area, replacing Dinoland U.S.A. at Animal Kingdom, which is called Tropical Americas.

We look ahead to Gareth Edwards’ Jurassic City, what it might be like, and how it connects to his very earliest work.
In the press tour for his 2023 sci-fi film The Creator, British director Gareth Edwards suggested that, after the bruising experiences of making 2014’s Godzilla and in particular 2016’s Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, he wouldn’t rush to go back to studio filmmaking again.
Suggesting that both of those films had started production without finalised scripts, Edwards said as recently as January that “I have to concentrate on personal and original projects.”
This stance appeared to change rather abruptly just one month later, when Universal approached Edwards with the offer to direct the next Jurassic Park (or Jurassic World) sequel. Original director David Leitch had dropped out, and with the film’s production racing to meet a self-set 2025 release date, Universal Pictures needed a replacement in a...

“The Babadook” might be about a demon that pops out of a children’s book, but no recent film does a better job of capturing the acute reality of living with grief. “Cloverfield” follows a gaggle of pre-Instagram model millennials as they’re chased around Manhattan by a bug-eyed colossus, but few of the somber post-9/11 dramas do a better job of distilling the heartsick chaos of watching your hometown try to make sense of a senseless attack. “The Village” is...

Wes Craven, director of the first four films in the Scream franchise, passed away in 2015. So when Paramount Pictures and Spyglass Media teamed up to revive the franchise with the new sequel that was released in 2022, the directing duo of Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett took the helm. They then returned to direct Scream VI the following year, with both of their contributions to the franchise centering on sisters Samantha and Tara Carpenter, played by Melissa Barrera and Jenna Ortega. During a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Bettinelli-Olpin and Gillett confirmed that they had been planning to return to direct Scream 7 and complete a Carpenter sisters trilogy… but they mistakenly thought they could fit the production of their Universal Monsters movie Abigail (formerly known as Dracula’s Daughter) in between the making of Scream VI and Scream 7. Turns out, Spyglass wanted to get moving on Scream 7 sooner than their schedules allowed,...

Netflix has become known for axing fan-favorite series recently. Now, a beloved talent show, Dance Monsters, has been trashed from the streaming service after just one season. The star-studded program was like nothing anyone had seen before, but the streamer has decided not to renew for Season 2. Continue reading for details about why and if the show might be picked up elsewhere.
Dance Monsters Had A Star-Studded Cast & A Huge Budget
Dance Monsters is a dance talent show that focuses on visual effects. It was compared to ITV’s The Masked Dancer. The show was filmed in London, but it was streamed around the world on Netflix.
Each competitor dressed up as a monster of some sort for their performance and typically used a lot of lights and color on stage. The contestants also performed away from the judges and audience, making it easier to “let loose.”

There’s no question that Below Deck fans had reservations about watching the Og Below Deck without the Stud of the Sea.
However, Captain Kerry took it all in stride and simply did his own thing – which earned him mad props.
Below Deck fans are gushing over the new captain as Season 11 nears the halfway point.
Although Captain Kerry didn’t come out on top as the favorite Below Deck captain in a recent Reddit poll, he’s gaining momentum quickly.
X (formerly Twitter) was on fire this week singing Captain Kerry’s praises for two very good reasons: How he handled firing Bosun Jared Woodin and dealt with Cat Baugh needing to leave immediately for mental health reasons.

We have already reported that the sad news of Dragon Ball creator Akira Toriyama passing away hit the anime and manga industry hard. But not just them, Toriyama-sensei passing away has been a blow for the whole world, as fans around the world mourned and paid their respects to the legendary mangaka. Eiichiro Oda, the author of One Piece, was quick to express his sadness over Toriyama’s passing and once the information became public, he composed this heartfelt message:
“It is too early. The hole is too big. Sadness washes over me when I think that I will never see him again. I have admired him so much since I was a child, so I remember the day he called me by name for the first time. On the way home from the day you used the word “friend” for me and Kishimoto, I remember being overjoyed with Kishimoto.

Welcome to a new era of "Star Wars," in more ways than one. Today's newly-released trailer for "The Acolyte" has been a long time coming, promising to delve into an older and more unknown period of history in the galaxy far, far away. Set over a century before the prequel movies during the epoch known as The High Republic, the upcoming Disney+ series will cover wholly new ground that fans have never seen before -- at least, those who haven't been keeping up with the various official tie-in novels released over the last few years. But filling in lore gaps in the canon isn't the only reason why this exciting new story should be on our radar, however. The talent involved in this series both in front of and behind the camera immediately sets it apart from any other to this point, although one name stands tall above the rest.

The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live has been building up to a reunion of sorts between Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and Michonne (Danai Gurira), and it’s one fans have been waiting more than five years for.
Despite reuniting in the series premiere, they have been continually driven apart by the Crm and Jadis (Pollyanna McIntosh).
Thankfully, that all changed on Sunday’s new episode, which found the lovers working through their issues and reconnecting as they embarked on a mission to return to their loved ones.
Monsters and Critics got to talk to Michael Slovis about directing one of the limited series’ most pivotal episodes and what the events mean for the final episodes.

Monsters and Critics: I’ve watched episode four three times. It’s just one of those episodes you don’t get very often. Not a single scene is wasted,...
