Exclusive: Dale Dickey has been tapped for a heavily recurring role in the upcoming second season of Max comedy Bookie, from Chuck Lorre and Nick Bakay.
Starring Sebastian Maniscalco and Omar J. Dorsey, the comedy series follows bookie Danny (Maniscalco) as he and his partner, former NFL star Ray (Dorsey), romp around Los Angeles trying to keep their illegal sports-betting operation in play.
Season 2 presumably will show [Spoiler Alert] whether Danny can win back the affections of his wife Sandra (Andrea Anders), after his Super Bowl win seems to have torn them apart, as well as Ray dealing with the fallout of his mother’s wedding, which saw the groom seemingly die at the altar.
Dickey will play Sandra’s (Anders) mother.
Bookie also stars Vanessa Ferlito as Danny’s side-hustling sister Lorraine, Jorge Garcia as reluctantly reformed drug dealer-turned-soccer expert Hector and Maxim Swinton as Sandra’s 10-year-old son.

Fans were so awed by Charlie Sheen‘s portrayal of a fictionalized version of himself in the Max series ‘Bookie’ that they have said so as many times as are needed for the show to decide to bring him in for the second ride.
So we’re soon going to be getting more Charlie Sheen playing Charlie Sheen. One can’t simply have enough of the guy, can we?

There’s something satisfying about watching an actor of Sheen’s caliber poking fun at himself, and perhaps that’s why ‘Bookie’ creators have decided to bring him back onboard.
The season 1 of the show saw Sheen play a fictionalized version of himself in a recurring role. The show was recently renewed for another season run after it drew strong reviews from fans.

The mother of all reunions is not over yet: Chuck Lorre said at Deadline’s Contenders TV on Sunday that Charlie Sheen will return for a cameo (or two?) in season 2 of Max’s Bookie.
The former star of Two and a Half Men showed up in season one as himself in the Sebastian Maniscalco comedy. The reunion almost upstaged the comedy itself, which follows bookie Danny (Maniscalco) as he and his partner, former NFL star Ray (Omar J. Dorsey), romp around Los Angeles trying to keep their illegal sports betting operation in play.
“I’ve always been an admirer of his work. His work is impeccable,” Lorre told the audience. “After all this time, his chops are undiminished. It was an extraordinary experience to put everything behind us and work together again.”

“Days of our Lives” fans will see an unfamiliar face in a familiar role when soap newcomer Natasha Hall temporarily replaces Jessica Serfaty as Sloan Petersen for at least three episodes during the week of March 4-8, 2024.
Hall, best known for playing Yvette over three episodes in “The Kominsky Method” during the third season of the Netflix original series, will appear in scenes alongside several Salemites, including Jamie Martin Mann (Tate), Emily O Brien (Theresa) and Greg Vaughan (Eric), among others.
Soap Opera Digest, which first reported the news, did not provide a reason for the temporary recast. Meanwhile, the current storyline sees Sloan dealing with the guilt of knowing that Jude, the child she and Eric are raising, is actually Nicole (Arianne Zucker) and Eric’s biological baby.

Out of all the ways John Krasinski could've followed up his success on the monster horror franchise "A Quiet Place," I don't think anyone foresaw him combining his powers with those of Ryan Reynolds for a high-concept fantasy about imaginary friends. What's more, the marketing for "If" -- a title that has surely already caused no small amount of grief for Seo analysts -- has been somewhat miraculously snark-free. In point of fact, it's hard to watch its trailers without waiting for Reynolds to abruptly knock against the fourth wall or quip about the giant purple creature voiced by Steve Carell. Yet, even in a Super Bowl preview cheekily throwing it back to one of Krasinski's most memorable pranks as Jim on "The Office," the joke is never on the film itself.

During an appearance on Friday’s episode of The View, the two-time Emmy winner was asked if he’d ever consider a revival of Two and a Half Men now that Sheen and series co-creator Chuck Lorre have buried the hatchet — and his response suggested that he would not be willing to open that door again.

Ryan Reynolds and Randall Park called back to a beloved moment from The Office in the latest teaser for John Krasinski’s new movie If. In the ad, Ryan Reynolds, who is also one of the film’s stars, appears backstage, speaking about the flick. Park then interrupts by taking the director’s chair and introducing himself as Krasinski, who wrote, directed and stars in If.
“Wait wait wait, hold on. What are you doing?,” asks Reynolds. Park keeps the bit going, saying, “I’m talking about our movie.” Reynolds responds, “You’re not John Krasinski. You’re Randall Park. John Krasinski is much shorter and less Asian.”
Reynolds then resorts to quizzing Park to prove he’s actually the director. Eventually, the Fresh Off the Boat alum announces that the sneak peek can wait until Sunday. The bit continues on throughout the mock behind-the-scenes featurette, with Park standing in for Krasinski.

Jon Cryer has proved himself a marketable quantity in the network sitcom game, a success most recently reflected in his starring role on the new NBC and Peacock show “Extended Family.”
Cryer, in an interview on the “Wtf With Marc Maron” podcast, recalled a key effort that helped cement that status — his part on the hit Charlie Sheen-starring sitcom “Two and a Half Men.”
Cryer said he remembered how Sheen’s role came together and how CBS played a big part.
“CBS wanted Charlie Sheen on the air so badly, and you could sense that,” Cryer said. “Based on, he had done ‘Spin City’ for a couple of seasons, and everybody was like, ‘Wow, he’s really good.’ Cause he took over for Michael J. Fox, and everybody said, ‘That is a bad idea.’ And then he turned out to be good on the show, with a totally different character.

Let’s not sugarcoat it — 2023 was a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad year for Hollywood.
For starters, obviously, there were the strikes, which for nearly five months turned backlots into ghost towns, costing the industry an estimated $6 billion in lost wages and other collateral economic damage. Then there were the layoffs, beginning at Disney and spreading like an apocalyptic virus to Paramount, Amazon, NBCUniversal, Lionsgate and beyond. Box office, although up a tick from 2022, still lagged far behind pre-pandemic grosses, with even superhero movies like The Marvels tanking. Streamers began pulling back on original content, the incredible shrinking broadcast TV audience continued to miniaturize itself, and there were new fears over the rise of the machines (you know, AI and whether it’ll soon replace your job) — all of which made Hollywood in 2023 feel a bit like one of those doomsday landscapes in Max’s end-of-the-world drama The Last of Us.

The sports book is reopening after Max renewed Bookie, starring Sebastian Maniscalco, for a second season.
The renewal comes two weeks after the season one finale of the show, which comes from Chuck Lorre and Nick Bakay.
The series, which premiered on November 30, follows bookie Danny (Maniscalco) as he and his partner, former NFL star Ray (Omar Dorsey), romp around Los Angeles trying to keep their illegal sports betting operation in play.
Season 2 presumably will show whether Danny [Spoiler Alert] can win back the affections of his wife Sandra, played by Andrea Anders, after his Super Bowl win seems to have torn them apart, as well as Ray dealing with the fallout of his mother’s wedding, which saw the groom seemingly die at the altar.

If is about to arrive, a wildly inventive new movie from John Krasinski and Ryan Reynolds. The film follows Reynolds in a world where imaginary friends (IFs) are actual.
The footage shows part of the intriguing enigma surrounding If, as a little girl realizes she has the power to see imaginary friends being abandoned by children they once helped.
We see it all, from a toasted marshmallow on its final breaths to a talking and walking teddy bear (hopefully not of the horror kind), dragons, sentient bananas, and dancing sunflowers in the If clip. This film had a lot of fun with its fictional friends.

Exclusive: I sit down for breakfast with Charlie Sheen not exactly knowing what to expect. His bookend episodes of Bookie that reunited him with Two And a Half Men‘s Chuck Lorre remind of what was lost after the actor’s inexplicable, substance-fueled “Tiger Blood” meltdown led to an abrupt parting of the ways and separating him from one of sitcom TV’s highest-ever salaries at a reported $1.8 million an episode. It has been a dozen years since then, and I come in harboring my own feelings. Basically, Two And a Half Men (the Charlie Harper Years) have been my reliable go-to at the end of most long days in the trenches. I can practically recite the dialogue along with Sheen, Jon Cryer, Angus T. Jones, as well as Holland Taylor (their mom), Melanie Lynskey (Charlie’s stalker), Marin Hinkle (Alan Harper’s ex), and the late Conchata Ferrell, who played the housekeeper Berta.

Not to be confused with It, the 2017 supernatural horror pic, If sees a perplexed Reynolds go on a lighthearted magical adventure with adorable creatures as his daughter, Bea, played by Cailey Fleming, uses her superpower to reconnect forgotten IFs with those that created them in the first place as kids, only to then grow up.
“What kind of kid creates an invisible If?” Reynolds questions at one point in the trailer as he forms an unlikely bond with Bea over her imaginary creatures hatched by childhood minds. In the end, If promises viewers they may find the inner kid in all of us as “You have to believe to see” becomes the tagline for the Paramount pic set to hit theaters...

While John Krasinski has more recently been known for co-writing and directing the :a[A Quiet Place]{href='https://www.empireonline.com/movies/reviews/quiet-place-review/' } films, he's headed to slightly more family friendly (not to mention noisier) territory for his next job, If. With the likes of Ryan Reynolds, Steve Carell, Emily Blunt, Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Fiona Shaw either on screen or providing voices for CG Imaginary Friends, the new fantasy adventure comedy has its first trailer online. Check it out…
Written as well as directed by Krasinski, If is about a girl who discovers that she can see everyone’s imaginary friends — and what she does with that superpower — as she embarks on a magical adventure to reconnect forgotten IFs with their kids.
Reynolds, at least in the footage the trailer provides, appears to be in more of a straight man role here, opting for wry over his wise-cracking mode.
