Gerri is heading West.
J. Smith-Cameron, the actress best known for her two-time Emmy-nominated performance as acid-tongued general counsel Gerri Kellman on “Succession,” is joining the cast of “Hacks” Season 3 as a recurring guest star, Variety reports.
Details of Cameron’s role are being kept under wraps, but it’s very easy to see her trading barbs with Deborah Vance (Jean Smart), or being polite but cutting with Ava Daniels (Hannah Einbinder).
“Hacks” is a Max comedy series about the professional and personal relationship between an aging Las Vegas stand-up comic (Smart) and the young writer (Einbinder) she hires to help her modernize her material. Smart has won two Emmys for her performance, and the series has earned two nominations for Outstanding Comedy Series, among many other nominations.
The main cast also includes Paul W. Downs (who co-created the show with Lucia Aniello and Jen Statsky), Megan Stalter, Carl Clemons-Hopkins,...

Two years ago, in the Season 2 finale of “Hacks,” it appeared that Deborah Vance and her protégé Ava Daniels had reached the end of the road. Deborah (Jean Smart), a jaded Las Vegas comic, and Ava (Hannah Einbinder), the young and eager joke writer she’d hired, had together crafted a TV special that showcased Deborah’s wit and her willingness to change with the times. It was a perfect merging of what Deborah brought to the table and what she’d learned, at times unwillingly, from her young partner — and, having decided they’d done all they could together, Deborah fired Ava.
What a surprising place to arrive, after the rollicking two-year journey these characters had undergone! But there was a problem with a finale this satisfying. “People are like, ‘It felt like it could have been the end,’” recalls co-creator Jen Statsky. “And you’re like, ‘No! No!

Hulk angry! And director Louis Leterrier might not be all that happy either, saying his planned sequel to 2008’s The Incredible Hulk had such potential before it got smashed to bits.
Speaking with ComicBook.com, Leterrier confirmed that “there was like a whole sequel” set for The Incredible Hulk. “There was like Grey Hulk, Red Hulks – there was a lot of good stuff that we were planning…Hulk is a complex character within the Marvel Universe…You want the primeval Hulk…the rage Hulk. And then when you go Grey Hulk and Smart Hulk you lose that a little bit and you get a little bit more kiddish with it.”
Objectively, with such animosity behind the scenes – Edward Norton went after Marvel over the edit of the movie, with Kevin Feige later declaring they would boot Norton for “an actor who embodies the creativity and collaborative spirit” – an Incredible Hulk sequel...

Louis Leterrier has revealed plans for the scrapped sequel to his 2008 film The Incredible Hulk, which starred Edward Norton in the title role.
In an interview with ComicBook.com, Leterrier shared that he had “a whole sequel” planned for the Marvel character that would have introduced other versions of the Hulk.
“There was like Grey Hulk, Red Hulks — there was a lot of good stuff that we were planning,” he told the website.
In subsequent films, Mark Ruffalo took on the role of Bruce Banner/Hulk starting with 2012’s The Avengers, and the storyline from the 2008 movie was not a part of the character’s arc. (Eric Bana also played the character in a 2003 film directed by Ang Lee, while Lou Ferrigno portrayed the Hulk and Bill Bixby was Bruce Banner in the CBS series, which aired from 1977 to 1982, and in several TV movies.)
The rights to the character are complicated.

Director Louis Leterrier, who most recently directed “Fast X,” has opened up about the “Incredible Hulk” sequel that could have been. In an interview with ComicBook.com, the French director revealed he had hoped to make a sequel to the 2008 film and had a whole film in mind. He said, “There was like Grey Hulk, Red Hulks – there was a lot of good stuff that we were planning.”
Leterrier added that the potential for Hulk is extraordinary in the MCU. “Hulk is a complex character within the Marvel Universe,” Leterrier said. “You want the primeval Hulk… the rage Hulk. And then when you go Grey Hulk and Smart Hulk you lose that a little bit and you get a little bit more kiddish with it.”
The 2008 “Hulk” movie stars Edward Norton in the title role, though Norton was replaced with Mark Ruffalo when the character was rebooted four years later in “The Avengers.

Director Louis Leterrier is opening up about the scrapped sequel plans to the 2008 film The Incredible Hulk. The Marvel film had an ambitious path forward and the filmmaker is talking about what was in store in the followup superhero movie.
“Yeah there was like a whole sequel,” Leterrier told ComicBook in a recent interview. “There was like Grey Hulk, Red Hulks – there was a lot of good stuff that we were planning.”
Edward Norton played the titular character in the film Leterrier directed. Marvel went in a completely different direction with Hulk casting Mark Ruffalo as the new Bruce Banner making his debut in 2012’s The Avengers.

Marcus Smart was selected with the sixth overall pick in the 2014 NBA Draft by the Boston Celtics and is now one of the best perimeter defenders in the league. The athlete started coming off the bench for the team in 2018. He became the starting point guard in 2021 and was named Defensive Player of the Year for the 2021-22 season. He also won the NBA Hustle Award three times and was named to the NBA All-Defensive First Team as many times.
While Smart’s accomplishments on the court are well-documented, not a ton is known about his life off the court with the woman he’s engaged to. Here’s what we know about his fiancée Maisa Hullum and the famous actor who helped Smart out with his proposal.

Exclusive (Updated with Jen Statsky’s comments): Filming on Season 3 of HBO Max/Universal TV hit comedy series Hacks, starring Jean Smart and Hannah Einbinder, has been halted due of the writers strike, Deadline has learned. According to sources, production will be on pause for the duration of the work stoppage.
It is hard for any scripted series to shoot without writing showrunners on set. This is especially true for Hacks as writing is at the heart of the show — it centers on an aging comedian Deborah Vance (Smart) and an up-and-coming writer Ava Daniels (Einbinder) who are writing together. Hacks was created by Paul W. Downs, Lucia Aniello and Jen Statsky, who serve as showrunners. According to WGA rules, members cannot provide any writing services, including script revisions during filming, while a strike is going on.
Update: Statsky, who won an Emmy alongside Downs and Aniello for writing the Hacks pilot episode,...

This weekend marks the beginning of the end for two former Emmy-winning favorites: your beloved “Barry,” which gave Bill Hader back-to-back Best Comedy Actor wins in 2018 and 2019, and my on-again, off-again, on-again fave “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,” the Best Comedy Series winner at the 2018 ceremony, where stars Rachel Brosnahan and Alex Borstein also took home mid-sized gold trophies. Both shows, actual comedies with lolz, will end this season mostly distant from the glory of those early days. Last year, “Barry” grabbed 14 Emmy nominations and won three awards,...

There won’t be a repeat winner in one comedy category at the Emmys this year. Two-time reigning Best Comedy Actress champ Jean Smart will sit out this cycle as Season 3 of “Hacks” won’t premiere in time. So who will inherit her crown?
In Smart’s absence, Quinta Brunson has slid into first place in the odds. The “Abbott Elementary” creator and star was a popular spoiler pick last year, but she “only” took home the Emmy for Best Comedy Writing. She notched a win over Smart at the Golden Globes, where “Abbott” nabbed three awards, including Best Comedy/Musical Series. But Smart bested her at the Critics Choice and Screen Actors Guild Awards, where “Abbott” picked up the top prizes as well. Sure, you can say those losses are irrelevant since Smart is out of the Emmy picture, but Brunson still didn’t sweep the winter awards like,...

This Friday sees the release of a “coming of age” story with a couple of very interesting twists. Yes, it’s about a young woman yearning to break free of her childhood home as she approaches the end of high school. Of course, there’s all the college prep, changing friendships, and even a new budding romance. Now, here’s the big detour: she’s conflicted as she believes her folks can’t really fend for themselves. In fact, many might think that she’s really “raising” them. So there’s the conflict between exploration and guilt. And it is “inspired by real events”, in fact, it’s a dramatized take on a documentary from a couple of years ago. Plus it touches on many similar themes as a film from earlier in the month. So, with this young woman’s blossoming new life, could she be the title’s Wildflower?...
