WEDNESDAY, MAY 24 SKULL ISLAND---trailer released for the Netflix animated King Kong series. LINK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJoT7Tm_byw STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS---new trailer released for Season 2. LINK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69mzZqcM0qw THE FLASH---new trailer released for the DC superhero movie.

LINK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGaiW4xRHEg BEETLEJUICE 2---photo shows a church on the film set in Buckinghamshire, England. The sequel's working title is BLUE HAWAII.  THE MANDALORIAN---Pedro Pascal confirmed he only provides the voice for The Mandalorian while Brendan Wayne and Lateef Crowder actually wear the costume and act on the series, "There was an extended amount of experimentation, being in the suit for a lot of it, and frankly, my body wasn’t up for the task as far as, like, the four months of it. But I was in it. I was in it a significant amount, an elastic amount. But now we’ve figured it out, which is super cool, and amazingly, it gave me the opportunity to be able to go and do something else."  STAR WARS---Natalie Portman was asked if she might return as Padme Amidala after Hayden Christensen returned as Anakin Skywalker in the OBI-WAN KENOBI miniseries, “I have no information on [coming back]. No one has ever asked me to return, but I’m open to it.” BLACK WIDOW---Florence Pugh commented on how her fans reacted to her co-starring in a Marvel superhero movie, "So many people in the indie film world were really pissed off at me. They were like, ‘Great, now she’s gone forever.’ And I’m like, no, I’m working as hard as I used to work. I’ve always done back-to-back movies. It’s just people are watching them now. You just have to be a bit more organized with your schedule." FRASIER---Kelsey Grammer commented on if characters from CHEERS might have cameos on the revival series, "We might see some of them…" THE FAMILY STALLONE---Paramount+ renewed the series for Season 2. DOCTOR WHO---Indira Varma will play The Duchess in the upcoming season. Varma played Suzie Costello on TORCHWOOD. TRIVIA---May 24, 2023 is the 82nd anniversary of the Royal Navy battlecruiser HMS Hood being sunk by the German battleship Bismarck in World War II. British actor Robin Hughes was a signalman who was supposed to board the Hood as it set sail to hunt for the Bismarck, but the day before, he was reassigned to officer's training school which saved his life. Of the Hood's crew of 1,418 men, only three survived. Hughes said in in an interview he was "four". Hughes is probably best known to American audiences for appearing in THE TWILIGHT ZONE episode "The Howling Man" in which he claimed he was an innocent traveler, who was falsely imprisoned by mad monks in an ancient castle. After tricking a man to free him, he revealed himself to be The Devil, who was now free to continue inflicting misery and suffering on mankind.

I don't know who the SKULL ISLAND cartoon is aimed at, because today's kids aren't going to go for such limited 2D animation, and it seemed too shallow and juvenile to attract grownups. The STRANGE NEW WORLDS trailer confused the heck out of me. Most of it looks like a computer-animated series, but some of it looks like live action with actors. In particular, most shots of Mr. Spock looked like crude computer animation to me. He didn't look real until his final scene, giving the salute. Captain Pike was either the actor, or very good animation. The show has a weird look!
