Emily Blunt just revealed how nervous she was making The Devil Wears Prada, and how Meryl Streep helped her out.
If you've never watched The Golden Girls, shame on you! Originally airing from 1985-1992, the NBC sitcom followed the lives and misadventures of four older women who shared a home in Miami. Featuring an impeccable ensemble cast and wondrous writers (including a pre-Arrested Development Mitchell Hurwitz), the series has, bar none, some of the funniest, most multi-faceted TV comedy writing and performing we'll ever see. All of this makes me thrilled to hear that a phenomenal, all-Black cast will be performing a virtual table read of an episode tonight, September 8, 9pm EST, in …
It's almost time for the Community cast reunion and table read. This special table read event marks a rare occasion for the Community cast it is (almost) entirety to get together and hangout. So, if you're a fan of the delightfully offbeat NBC comedy from creator Dan Harmon, then you'll need to know how to watch. [caption id="attachment_467013" align="alignright" width="360"] Image via NBC[/caption] As we reported back on May 7, the alums of Community — Joel McHale, Ken Jeong, Alison Brie, Gillian Jacobs, Danny Pudi, Donald Glover, Yvette Nicole Brown, and Jim Rash (but, …

There is no time like the present for a good ol' fashioned cast reunion. On Friday, the cast of the NBC comedy Chuck, which ran for five seasons from 2007 to 2012, did exactly that as they joined together for both a reunion and to do a table reading. The event helped raise money for a cause picked by the Chuck cast, Feeding America's COVID-19 Response Fund. The reunion and table read was hosted by Entertainment Weekly as part of their "EW Reunions: #UnitedAtHome series" via Zoom video conference on Friday, April 17. Joining in on the fun …
You can always count on Big Mouth to liven things up when life's feeling a bit too dull. Over the weekend, the cast of the Netflix animated series did exactly that, assembling over a Zoom conference call to do a table reading for charity. [caption id="attachment_884624" align="alignright" width="360"] Image via Netflix[/caption] On Saturday, series co-creator and star Nick Kroll got together with his Big Mouth pals to do a table reading of the Season 3 episode, "How to Have an Orgasm."

Stranger Things is currently in production in Atlanta for the highly anticipated adventures of Season 4. The cast and crew are keeping that 80s vibe in a new behind-the-scenes video provided by vintage handheld camcorder (along with some "vintage" post-production digital effects aesthetics). We don't know too much about the new season except that The Duffer Bros. will be titling the first episode "Chapter One: The Hellfire Club", Hopper is indeed alive (though he's currently imprisoned in Kamchatka, Russia), and that "a new horror" is on the rise back in the Hawkins area. Don't …
Like the swift, unstoppable passage of time, Netflix's Oscar campaign for The Irishman continues to roll on, and I continue to be charmed by the fact it's almost exclusively centered on "look how much fun Martin Scorsese was having with his old buds." Recently, we got to see the director yucking up a storm on set, and today Netflix released some footage from the very first table read back in 2013, featuring Scorsese and stars Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, and Joe Pesci. [caption id="attachment_852994" align="alignright" width="360"] Image via Netflix[/caption] The footage splices together …
With Good Omens now streaming on Amazon Video, I recently got to participate in a group interview in London with the two stars of the show: David Tennant and Michael Sheen. During the interview, they talked about what they each learned about their characters during the first table read (where the cast reads the scripts out loud in a group setting), how the costumes helped them embody who they were playing, which time periods were their favorite, how this was one of Sheen’s favorite books, how the series speaks to what’s going on in the world today, and …
Game of Thrones: The Last Watch pulled back the curtain on the making Game of Thrones Season 8. Directed by Jeanie Finlay, the nearly two-hour long documentary, which premiered May 26th on HBO, gave viewers a look into the worlds and work of show producers, directors, production teams and extras, like Andrew McClay (who played a Stark bannerman/soldier). Interwoven among stories about building King's Landing on the backlot (via Production Designer Deborah Riley), balancing stunt work and playing the Night King (Vladimír Furdík), crafting crypt wights for the first time (Prosthetics Department Co-Head Sarah …
