Clint Eastwood was one of the biggest movie stars in the world in 1995, but, up until that point, he was not known for appearing in family-friendly films. CBS' "Rawhide," the television series that launched him in the 1960s, and 1982's "Firefox," with its video game tie-in, are probably his two most kid-appropriate works. "Bronco Billy" and "Honkytonk Man" are also family films in a way, though, really, Eastwood only hit the bullseye with kids when he plopped Clyde the orangutan into the bare-knuckle-brawling adventures of Philo Beddoe in "Every Which Way But Loose" and "Any Which Way You Can" (both of which have no shortage of gleefully raunchy moments).
Eastwood also wasn't known for his romantic dramas, so the summer of 1995 promised to be an outlier for him with his adaptation of Robert James Waller's runaway bestseller "The Bridges of Madison County.

After the runaway success of Netflix and Tim Burton’s Addams Family stand-alone series Wednesday starring Jenna Ortega, the streamer renewed it for second season in January 2023.

Season 1 ending up scoring 12 Emmy nominations, including for Ortega in Lead Actress in a Comedy Series, becoming just the third Latina to ever be nominated in a leading actress category. The series won four Emmys, though Ortega lost out to Abbott Elementary‘s Quinta Brunson on Emmy night.

They’re creepy and they’re kooky, mysterious and spooky, they’re all together ooky…Core cast members from The Addams Family reunited at this past weekend’s Los Angeles Comic Con, more than 30 years since they first brought the gothic family to the big screen.
Gathering for the event was Christina Ricci (Wednesday), Anjelcia Huston (matriarch Morticia), Christopher Lloyd (Uncle Fester), Jimmy Workman (Pugsley), and Carel Struycken (butler Lurch). Of course, the Addams Family reunion was obviously missing the late Raul Julia, who brought a whole new energy to father Gomez. In fact, Gomez died less than one year after the release of 1993’s Addams Family Values, succumbing to a stroke after battling other illnesses. It would be his final film released during his life, with Street Fighter being posthumously released.
But Julia’s presence was still felt by his Addams family, with Anjelica Huston remembering him as “the perfect gentleman.

JoJo Siwa has achieved a lot of success and that too at a very young age. She came to the limelight with her appearance in Dance Moms alongside her mother, Jessalynn Siwa. However, it was her partnership with Nickelodeon that skyrocketed her acting career, after which she began getting roles on various shows and movies.
JoJo Siwa via Joey Graceffa podcast | Credits: YouTube
Initially, Siwa was seen as a girl next door, and her outfits were very pink-coded, not to forget her trademark bow. However, with age, she started experimenting more with her looks, and her style shifted towards more of a gothic touch. But she used this very thing in her favor, something many couldn’t even wrap their heads around.

“I knew nothing totally insane was about to happen,” she said of finding an escape on film and TV sets.
“Nobody was gonna get really mad and pretend they were gonna drive the car into a wall. There was this refuge of emotional safety.”
Christina grew up in New Jersey as the youngest of three siblings. Her parents divorced when she was 13, just after filming Addams Family Values.
The 44-year-old Addams Family alum spoke about her upbringing with Demi Lovato for the Hulu documentary Child Star, out now.
“I had a very chaotic home,” she said. “My father was a failed cult leader, and so he had all that same sort of, like, really crazy narcissism that goes along with someone wanting to run a cult. And he was very physically violent. There was never any peace in my house.”

Season 2 of the hit Netflix Addams Family series Wednesday has been filming in Ireland since May, and Netflix has just unveiled a video that gives a glimpse behind the scenes. In the process, they have also confirmed that the new batch of episodes will premiere sometime in 2025. Among the cast and crew members seen in the video are, of course, star Jenna Ortega, as well as director Tim Burton – and during a chat with Collider, Al Gough (who created this series with Miles Millar) revealed that Burton is directing half of season 2, which is the same thing he did for the first season. That means Burton is at the helm of four of the season’s eight episodes.

In a new behind-the-scenes teaser revealed during Netflix‘s Geeked Week fan event on Thursday, the cast of Wednesday teases what’s to come in Season 2 of the Addams Family spin-off series, which premieres on the streaming platform in 2025.

Demi Lovato brought their life experience full circle by co-directing the new Hulu documentary “Child Star.”
The former Disney Channel kid turned teen pop sensation looks beyond their own career journey to analyze the rise of the entire child performer industry — from the Shirley Temple era to the TikTok and YouTube generation.
Lovato recruited fellow child stars Drew Barrymore, Kenan Thompson, Christina Ricci, Raven-Symoné, Alyson Stoner and JoJo Siwa to share their stories on camera; Raven-Symoné, Siwa and Stoner also joined Lovato on Sept. 12 at a special screening of the documentary, held at Neuehouse Hollywood. “Getting to talk to them so candidly about our experiences was so meaningful to me,” Lovato told Variety.
Because of that shared experience, Lovato’s conversations were markedly different than sitting down with someone who hasn’t been there. “There was a connectedness that was really important to all of us,” Lovato said. “That’s...

In the new documentary “Child Star,” premiering on Hulu on Tuesday, Sept. 17, former child star Demi Lovato interviews others who have survived being famous at a young age to reveal the sometimes harrowing experiences that they have lived through.

Addams Family Values is getting a 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray release in the UK this October: more information on it here.
Well, you can’t blame me. When the terrific sequel Addams Family Values hit cinemas in 1993, it failed to match the commercial performance of its predecessor, costing us a chance of a third movie with the cast. Just to say: I paid to see it. Had a great time, too.
Over time, the movie – starring Anjelica Huston and the much-missed Raul Julia – has very much found its audience. And here’s further proof: Paramount has given it a 4K makeover, as it prepares to release the film for the first time on the 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray format.

“I wouldn’t end up where I am had I not made all the choices leading up to this point. But it came at a price,” Demi Lovato says at the end of the new trailer for Child Star.
At a time when documentaries like Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV, Showbiz Kids and Gary are supercharging the conversation around child stardom, the upcoming Hulu documentary examines the impact that celebrity had on some of recent history’s most recognizable names. Those include, as the trailer released Thursday demonstrated, Raven-Symoné, Drew Barrymore, JoJo Siwa, Kenan Thompson, Christina Ricci and Alyson Stoner — as well as, of course, Lovato herself.
The promotional spot shows subjects reflecting on growing up in an industry context. “The first time I was in front of a professional camera, I was 16 months olds,” the former That’s So Raven star Symoné tells Lovato in the trailer.

On Sept. 1, Netflix shared some good news with its subscriber base. It announced that the first season of the popular Showtime horror-thriller series Yellowjackets would be coming to the streaming platform in October. We definitely didn't see this coming, but we couldn't be more excited. Yellowjackets season 1 is slated to land on Netflix on Tuesday, Oct. 1, 2024.
Recently, we've seen the release of several Showtime series on Netflix. For example, the streamer added the anthology drama series Super Pumped: The Battle for Uber, the drama miniseries Patrick Melrose and the legal drama series Your Honor to its platform in May 2024. Then, in June, we saw the addition of all eight seasons of the hit crime drama series Dexter on Netflix. So, it's not totally surprising that the streaming giant decided to acquire the streaming rights to yet another Showtime series.
