FX has set a March 29 premiere date for Spermworld, a documentary feature on the unregulated online marketplace for sperm, produced by The New York Times and Edgeline Films.
Directed by Lance Oppenheim, inspired by the Times’ article “The Sperm Kings Have a Problem: Too Much Demand” by Nellie Bowles, Spermworld is described as a road movie set inside the new wild west of baby making – online forums where sperm donors connect with hopeful parents.
Per the synopsis: Against the landscape of roadside motels, abandoned shopping malls and suburban bathrooms across the country, the film follows intimate encounters between donors and recipients as they exchange more than just genetic material. Spermworld examines how our fantasies about partnership and parenthood shape our deepest desires. What emerges in this new feature-length documentary directed by Lance Oppenheim is an incisive portrait of the search for human connection in an increasingly alienating world.

Amid a Toronto Film Festival light on sales, Greenwich Entertainment has nabbed domestic distribution for a documentary on Louis C.K., TheWrap has learned.
The film, “Sorry/Not Sorry,” details the stand-up’s downfall after he was accused in a 2017 New York Times article of sexual misconduct by five women. It also deals with C.K.’s attempts at a post-scandal comeback — including a Grammy win in 2021 — along with backlash faced by the accusers. The sale came hours after the film’s TIFF world premiere.
Directed by Caroline Suh and Cara Mones, “Sorry/Not Sorry” is a New York Times production. Financial terms have not been disclosed, but Greenwich’s Andy Bohn negotiated the acquisition with CAA Media Finance on behalf of The New York Times.
“We couldn’t be happier to be partnering with Greenwich in the release of ‘Sorry/Not Sorry,'” Suh stated. “Their support means that the film – and the...

Meredith Marks says Jen Shah has to be careful while filming. Pic credit: © ImageCollect/J Lingo/Admedia
Last season, Jen Shah was arrested. She was accused of running a nationwide telemarketing scheme.
To make matters worse, she was accused of targeting senior citizens.
She recently changed her plea to guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, after she maintained her innocence all last season.
Now, Real Housewives of Salt Lake City’s Og Meredith Marks is opening up about Jen Shah’s legal situation.
Season three of the show has started filming and Jen is still part of the cast, a move that her Rhoslc castmate is sharing her opinion on and it’s safe to say that she doesn’t think it’s a good idea.
On an episode of the podcast, No Filter with Zack Peter, Meredith said, “It’s just very risky [to stay on the show] because whether you are guilty or not,...

Martha Stewart is stunning fans with her throwback magazine cover. Pic credit: ©ImageCollect.com/J. Lingo/Admedia
Martha Stewart is an acclaimed businesswoman and excellent cook and homemaker, but there’s more to her than that.
At 78, Martha unintentionally started a trend of posting “thirst traps” on her Instagram and has rolled with it ever since.
While most of her feed is pictures of food, family, friends, events, and promotions, every once in a while, the 81-year-old homemaker will share a photo that touches the risque side.
In a recent post, she shared a throwback of when she was on the cover of Spy magazine in 1996, completely nude.
The picture is similar to Sandro Botticelli’s Birth of Venus painting and channels the Greek goddess Aphrodite as she sits in a huge seashell and covers her chest with her knees.
The cover of the magazine reads, “Whitey Aphrodite,” further...
