LeVar Burton Releases New Reading Rainbow Theme Song

0

The wildly successful Kickstarter campaign for ‘Reading Rainbow’ may not have been the best idea for LeVar Burton.

With Reading Rainbow having enough money to buy several islands, and enough cash to reBoot, LeVar Burton went to Funny or Die for help producing the beloved show’s new theme song.

That may have been a huge mistake. While the new song starts off the same, things start to get dark really quick and soon you see a disturbing preview of LeVar Burton‘s true intentions, to take over the world of books. That poor butterfly had no chance.

LeVar Burton recently launched a successful Kickstarter campaign to bring Reading Rainbow to every child, everywhere through the expansion of the Reading Rainbow tablet app that he and RRRKidz developed following the show’s cancellation 5 years ago. The original goal was to raise $1 million dollars, but, with 28 days still remaining for the campaign, it has already raised nearly $3.5 million.

Actor Breaks Character, Fights Audience Member, Later Fired

Play cancelled after actor breaks character to fight an audience member

The Los Angeles revival of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof was a major hit. When I say hit, I mean the fight between the lead actor and a member in the audience.

A drunk man in the audience would not stop heckling the actors on the stage. According to the witnesses, the man taunted whenever the Maggie character was onstage and yelled insults at other actors, who continued to act despite the insults. Until things turned very homophobic when Brick, an oppressed gay character portrayed by Anton Troy, rejected Maggie in a Scene.

CBS
CBS

“Because he’s a fag,” the drunken heckler yelled out in the middle of the scene. That is when Lacy-playing Big Daddy-snapped and broke character.

Lacy explained, “Brick tried to respond, and he said it again. I just said, ‘What did you say, motherf*cker?’ … I went through our fake stage door, took off my vest, went into the audience — as he stood proudly to stare at me with a stupid grin on his face — [and] I pushed him, and he was drunk, so he easily just collapsed… I knew better than to start throwing punches. I had made my point. I silenced the heckler, and thankfully, one of the audience members — this enormous 6’5”, 280-lb. filmmaker named Tim Sullivan, who happened to be gay and was not at all happy with what was happening — reached over and picked this guy up by his shirt collar and literally carried him out of the theatre.”

Although the actors continued on with the show, Lacy was fired and Troy quit the show. With both of the lead actors gone, the production for ‘Cat on a Hot Tin Roof‘ was shut down early.

Moral of the story, don’t break character, you may just lose your job.

Uber Driver Arrested for Kidnapping and Sexual Assault

0

Uber Driver arrested for allegedly kidnapping a drunk woman.

Are you thinking of using Uber to get to your next audition, production meeting, or just to set? Well you may want to reconsider the ride-share service.

According to a recent report, a 26 year old victim was drinking Sunday night and “had likely called the Uber ride-share service” for a ride home. She evidently passed out so the driver “took advantage of the situation, and drove her to a cheap motel.”

Officers went to the Panorama Motel after the woman pointed it out. Police said the suspect was the only white male tenant to have checked in. Encino resident Frederick Dencer, 32, was still in the room the woman had come from. Police said Dencer gave conflicting information during an interview with him.

Surveillance video showed Dencer carrying the woman into the room, contrary to his descriptions of the night’s events, police said.

Police believe the woman’s last stop Sunday night was at the Greystone Manor nightclub in West Hollywood. Police believe Dencer, an Uber driver, was hanging out at the club after another fare and may have been solicited by a nightclub worker to take the drunk victim home, according to the LAPD.

The police state that “no sexual assualt” occurred but, there was some fondling through her clothes.

When the victim expressed that she wanted to leave the motel after waking up, he did not stop her.

This is Uber’s first major incident since the company created “Safe Rides Fee,” Sam Biddle asked “since when do we have to pay extra to not get raped?”.

In an article by The Daily Beast’s Olivia Nuzzi, she detailed an encounter with a driver who photographed her jogging.

Uber didn’t take any responsibility, saying “The facts are unknown at this stage and it’s certainly unclear that this is an Uber-related incident, and the driver in question was not logged in, connected to or operating on the platform at the time. We have reached out to authorities and will work with them to help uncover the facts.”

The driver was charged with “kidnap for purpose of sexual assualt” and is being held on $1 million bail.

Maybe the moral of the story is to trust a friend not an app to get you home safely after drinking. Or taking you anywhere for that matter.

‘Metal Gear Solid’ Movie is in Development and Coming Soon

0

Metal Gear Solid movie is coming soon.

Sony is currently in development for the upcoming ‘Metal Gear Solid’ movie. According to , Sony is in talks with Jordan Vogt-Roberts to direct the film. Vogt-Roberts previously directed The Kings of Summer. 

The Metal Gear Solid movie has been in development for quite a while. The problem started when it took a long time for the game creators and studios to find themselves to agree on how to tell the story of the protagonist Solid Snake.

Metal Gear Solid was created by Hideo Kojima, and the game has been around since 1998. Metal Gear Solid centers on Snake a soldier who infiltrates a nuclear weapons facility to neutralize the terrorist thereat from a renegade special forces unit. Snake must liberate two hostages, one of them the president of a major arms manufacturer and confront the terrorists, while trying to stop a nuclear launch.

There are several video games turned movies coming soon. Including Assassin’s Creed and Tom Hardy’s ‘Splinter Cell‘. But, not all video games turned movies make it out of development. Producers were interested in a Halo production and a Bioshock movie but both productions went way over budget.

Robert Downey Jr. and Showtime in Development for a Drug Rehab Drama

0

Showtime is developing a 1980’s Rehab drama alongside Robert Downey Jr.

Showtime is currently in development for a new drama from the writer Gary Lennon (Orange is the New Black, Justified). Robert Downey Jr and Susan Downey’s Team have also joined together with Sony Pictures TV.

The untitled drama is set in 1983 and follows a rehab/therapeutic community in Venice Beach where drugs and alcohol have always been part of the culture.

It is likely that this television series will be based on Robert Downey Jr‘s experience in rehab. From 1996 through 2001, Downey was arrested numerous times on drug-related charges including cocaine, heroin and marijuana and went through several drug treatment programs unsuccessfully. In 1999 he explaiend to a judge, “It’s like I’ve got a shotgun in my mouth with my finger on the trigger, and I like the taste of the gun metal.” He explained his relapses by claiming that he was addicted to drugs since the age of eight, and due to the fact that his father, also an addict, had been giving them to him. 

Robert Downey Jr‘s experiences will most likely provide a realistic portrayal of drug rehabilitation and the culture behind being a drug addict in California.

STUDY: 2014 Hollywood Diversity Report Results are Shocking but Not Surprising

0

UCLA’s Ralph Bunche Center for African American Studies has released its 2014 Hollywood Diversity Report and the results are not that surprising.

The report analyzes 172 films that came out in 2011, as well as 1061 television shows that aired between 2011 and 2012 for the race and gender breakdowns of lead talent, overall cast, show creators, directors, and writers.

Minorities and women were underrepresented in each category. For instance, Lead Talent, minorities in film are underrepresented by a factor of 3 to 1 while women are underrepresented by a factor of 2 to 1. For comedies, the number increases to 7 to 1 for minorities.

For the full article,

1. Broadcast Comedies and Dramas

Show creator share: Asian=0% (n=96) Black=3.1%, Latino=1%, White=95.8%

Lead actor share: Asian=1% (n=99) Black=3%, Latino=1%, White=95%

Second actor share: Asian=1% (n=98) Black=8.2%, Latino=3.1%, Native=1%, Mixed=2%, White=84.7%

2. Cable Comedies and Dramas

Show creator share: Asian=1.4% (n=148) Black=6.1%, White=92.6%

Lead actor share: Asian=0.6% (n=156) Black=10.9%, Latino=1.3%, Mixed=1.9%, White=85.3%

Lead actor share: Asian=3.5% (n=172) Black=3.5%, Latino=2.9%, Mixed=.6%, White=89.5% [H/T Jezebel]

However, the study analyzes data from three years ago and shows such as ‘Scandal’ starring Kerry Washington and Shonda Rhimes have changed the landscape for many people in Hollywood. With the release of ‘Fresh Off The Boat’ Asians will be featured in a leading cast in the first time in years. Even ABC has created diversity programs for aspiring writers, directors, and actors. There may be a diversity gap but at least Hollywood executives are acknowledging it.
