Warner Bros. Discovery is laying off Karen Horne, a diversity, equity and inclusion executive, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.  Horne’s departure is not a result of cost-cutting measures, according to a memo sent by Warner Bros. Discovery’s chief global diversity, equity and inclusion officer Asif Sadiq, but is rather due to reorganization of the division, which is meant to focus more on “employee-related initiatives.” The DEI team will search for a new group vp to oversee North America and employee DEI initiatives and a new group vp internationally, resulting in an expansion of the team.

Given the family name, it was almost inevitable Weston Cage Coppola would move into acting. Son of Oscar-winning actor Nicolas Cage and part of the sprawling Coppola clan, one of Hollywood’s most enduring dynasties, Coppola grew up in a supportive creative environment. But the journey has not been easy as Coppola has battled against accusations of nepotism and what he describes as “form of prejudice” against him because of his name as he worked to establish himself in both music and acting.

Whether it’s nostalgia for The Brady Bunch or a need to Keep Up with the you-know-whos, there’s something for everyone — including residents George Clooney and Bruno Mars — in Fryman Canyon. Known for its hiking trails (described online as a “less douche-y” version of Runyon), the sycamore-soaked zone just south of Ventura Boulevard in Studio City has emerged as one of the Valley’s priciest ZIP codes, at least on a price-per-square-foot basis (topping out at about $1,200).

After the faith-based Christian film God’s Not Dead became a sleeper hit in 2014 by grossing more than $60 million, distributor Pure Flix was quick to get onboard the sequel God’s Not Dead 2, although it ultimately topped out at under $21 million in 2016. The company’s current release A Question of Faith represents a more traditional ensemble-cast drama that leans heavily on manipulative narrative techniques to emphasize its message, which will most likely be ignored by mainstream audiences while drawing support from the usual Christian constituencies.

Nipsey Hussle’s tragic March 31 shooting death in South Los Angeles inspired many to reflect on the Grammy-nominated artist’s brief career and good works in his hometown. It also prompted plenty of people to revisit his 2015 appearance in The CW’s Crazy Ex-Girlfriend pilot, rapping about the “patriarchal bullshit” women endure in the musical comedy’s “The Sexy Getting Ready Song.” “He was so sweet and so funny,” co-creator Aline Brosh McKenna recalls of the shoot, in which Hussle, playing himself, gets distracted from his rap by star and co-creator Rachel Bloom pantomiming waxing her rear, tweezing nose hairs and squeezing into Spanx.

Weed and windmills. Pot and prostitutes. Ganja and gunfire. Rutger Hauer. If your film is called Gangsterdam, it’s probably impossible to avoid any of the aforementioned without being accused of false advertising. But the use of hoary and facile clichés isn’t the only problem in Romain Levy’s French action-comedy, which casts local heartthrob Kev Adams as a student who ends up chasing after a packet of drugs in the Dutch capital in the hope of impressing a tough girl.

Longtime fans of Project Runway will notice some big changes when the durable fashion design competition — on the air since 2004 — makes its return to the screen and its original home of the Bravo TV network for its 17th season next Thursday night, March 14. Beyond the slick new catwalk, a roomy loft-like workroom and a new host — six-foot-two model Karlie Kloss towering over the proceedings after Heidi Klum gave her final “auf Wiedersehen” — this iteration feels more like the real world, with a noticeable diversity in the contestants and cast that didn’t exist before.

[This story contains spoilers from the season 11 finale of Fox’s The X-Files.] Did The X-Files just kill off one of its longest-running characters? Throughout 11 seasons and two feature films, Mulder (David Duchovny) and Scully (Gillian Anderson) were able to rely on their boss, Assistant Director Walter Skinner (Mitch Pileggi). Although the relationship was occasionally strained — including this season as Skinner kept his reluctant ties to the villainous Cigarette Smoking Man (William B.

Influencers are known for their presence on social media, but a handful of online personalities have also made the transition onto the big and small screens. Although Hollywood can be a difficult industry to break into, some of those who have grown large followings online have found their own way in. Decades ago, a typical “famous” person was someone whom audiences saw in movies, TV shows and on red carpets. But the rise of social media has changed what it means to be a celebrity, making way for influencers.

In 2018, the Tesuque Pueblo, a small Native American tribe based outside Santa Fe, New Mexico, was trying to decide what to do with their old casino. The tribe had built a new, updated gaming facility, and their economic development board was considering converting their 1950s-era casino lot into a water park, a ropes course or a glamping destination. Another, almost offhand suggestion the group entertained was opening a movie studio.
