We believe we would have been strong stewards of Warner Bros.' iconic brands. But this transaction was always a 'nice to have' at the right price, not a 'must have' at any price. Netflix's co-CEOs Ted Sarandos and Greg Peters explained their decision to withdraw, emphasizing that while they valued the opportunity, the financial terms no longer justified proceeding with the acquisition.
Mr. Darcy is its stern romantic lead. He has a massive income from his estate - 10,000 pounds a year - and, according to the novel's witty protagonist, Elizabeth Bennet, just as large of a stick up his ass. Jane Austen was not one to go for lengthy physical descriptions of things, but we do know that when he enters a room, he draws people's attention with a "fine, tall person, handsome features," and a "noble mien."

When duty calls, it's time to pick up. The Night Agent, one of the most popular spy thriller shows in the streaming-verse, is back for its third season on Netflix. Gabriel Basso returns as FBI agent Peter Sutherland, with his newest mission involving a treasury agent in Istanbul, a dark-money network, and a dogged reporter (played by Genesis Rodriguez) hot on the trail.
During their final summer at camp, old friends Shaggy and Daphne get embroiled in a haunting mystery surrounding a lonely lost Great Dane puppy that may have been a witness to a supernatural murder, Together with the pragmatic and scientific townie, Velma, and the strange, but ever so handsome new kid, Freddy, they set out to solve the case that is pulling each of them into a creepy nightmare that threatens to expose all of their secrets.
In a big studio-backed awards season, it's rare to see much overlap between the Film Independent Spirit Awards and the Oscars. A west coast cousin of sorts to the Gotham Awards, the Indie Spirits often celebrate the movies that the Academy skipped over with its nominations. The ceremony itself is also more fun (there's some day-drinking involved) than the more staid guild awards that dot the homestretch ahead of the similarly serious Academy Awards.
Is that his character from Babylon? No, that guy's dead (sorry). Is it Bullet Train 2? No, that movie doesn't exist yet. Toward the end of the trailer, however, Pitt's character slams down an Academy Award and that's when it all hit: That's Cliff Booth, the character for which Pitt won his Best Supporting Oscar in Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time ... in Hollywood. Booth is back, but this time he's on Netflix.
Davidson's debut episode, featuring Machine Gun Kelly, is assembled from the rough, requisite symbols of podcasting: host and guest sunk into plush, beat-up chairs vaguely facing each other, chatting and smoking cigarettes in a space that's presented as Davidson's garage, Benjamin Moore paint tubs doubling as an ashtray stand. Good pals, their conversation is loose and circuitous; their discussion drifts from adventures while getting high, stints in rehab, and - because this is the first episode - what a podcast even is.
" Unrecorded Night scripts are likely to be published by myself and my siblings as a way to offer what could not be realized, to those who would have loved it," Jennifer Lynch wrote. "Like many millions of people, we are great fans of our father's work, and wish to see it shared and celebrated in every good way. We know there is a wanting, and we feel the need to fulfill Dad's gifts as best as possible."
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, pickup order to lack of renewal. Here we bid farewell to the canceled shows of 2026. Less than a month into the year (and last lunar year not even over) and shows are already starting to drop. This post will serve as living tribute to the TV we're going to miss in 2027. Don't cry because they're over, smile because hopefully there are some sort of residuals in place for the workers.
