Things are moving fast for the next installment of Survivor.
Just days after saying that there were no plans in place for the 50th season of the reality show, host Jeff Probst updated its progress.
During a Survivor Q&a event with EW Editor in Chief Patrick Gomez on Saturday night at the Ovation Hollywood complex in Los Angeles, Probst revealed that Survivor 50 (which will air in the spring of 2026) will feature all returning players.
“I just got an idea,” said Probst. “Survivor 50 is coming down the corner. The truth is, we really do focus on 47 and 48, that’s what we’re heading out to shoot next, and then we have to shoot 49. But we know 50 is coming, so I am curious, is there a feeling, should 50 be another season with new players and don’t make it a big deal?”
The audience yelled out no. Probst then asked, “Or should it be returning players?...

A devastating photo of a woman grievously holding the body of her late five-year-old niece in the Gaza Strip won the World Press Photo of the Year award. Reuters, which originally published the picture, reported the news from Amsterdam, where the awards ceremony took place on Thursday.
Photographer Mohammed Salem, who is 39 and Palestinian, took the picture of Inas Abu Maamar holding the body of Saly, covered in a sheet, on Oct. 17, 2023. An Israeli missile had struck their family home. He shot it at the morgue of Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis,...

Exclusive: BBC News is close to crowning its first royal editor after narrowing the field of candidates down to a final two.
Deadline understands that the prestige on-air role is expected to be offered to either Mark Easton, BBC News’ home editor, or royal correspondent Daniela Relph.
The successful candidate will step into a newly-created role, but effectively replaces Nicholas Witchell, who retired as a BBC royal correspondent after 25 years.
Easton has little experience of covering the royal family, but has been home editor since 2004, overseeing major stories including the Grenfell Tower disaster.
Sources said Easton could bring a “more ballsy” approach to the BBC’s royal output, with the corporation sometimes seen as being cautious in its coverage of the royal family.
Relph has reported on the royals for more than a decade and appeared on the BBC’s News at Six bulletin on the day Kate Middleton announced her cancer diagnosis.

When it comes to action-packed stunts as well as explosive special effects, no one dares to match James Bond. The iconic British spy has been delighting viewers for over fifty years with his death-defying deeds and heart-pounding adventures.

This explosion, which took place in the Moroccan desert, was a breathtaking spectacle that had viewers on the brink of their seats.

The lead content editor of the popular broadcast publication TV NewsCheck says the company needs to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars to address a slowdown in advertising revenue before it can restart its news operations.
In a message posted to social media on Thursday, TV NewsCheck Editor Michael Depp said the outlet has been “inundated by phone calls, emails and text messages from broadcasters and readers in allied fields asking how they can help.”
The solution is simple: Depp says readers need to make a financial contribution to the platform in the form of an annual subscription to their premium product, Tvn Plus.
“At the risk of sounding like a telethon, we need 1,500 broadcasters to subscribe, today, to Tvn Plus,” Depp wrote. “For just $199 for an annual subscription, you will allow us to turn the lights back on as soon as next week.”

Hot off the heels of distributing the billion-dollar sensation Barbie in 2023, Warner Bros. is starting 2024 off strong with a momentous movie deal involving one of Hollywood’s most iconic stars, Tom Cruise! The cat is out of the bag, folks! Tom Cruise is partnering with studio chiefs Michael De Luca and Pamela Abdy to jointly develop and produce original and franchise theatrical films starring Cruise.
The deal finds Tom Cruise’s production company setting up shop on the Warner Bros. Discovery lot in Burbank. According to insiders, the arrangement, which kicks into effect this year, is not a first-look deal. In other words, Cruise will continue working with other studios on various projects, including Paramount, where Cruise’s action-packed Mission: Impossible franchise lives.
WB’s David Zaslav, who has not been the studio’s most popular leader, brokered the deal, finally adding an ornate feather to his cap. While no projects have been announced,...

Netflix Metrics The Glory
Data dump: Since its inception — and especially since it became an original content player — Netflix has wrestled with releasing viewing data publicly. This week, its improving levels of transparency reached new heights with the release of What We Watched, a global report on 18,000+ titles from its library (equating to 99% of its catalog) covering the first six months of 2023. Data transparency was one of the key issues in the WGA and SAG-AFTRA contract negotiations, and while these new semi-annual reports aren’t the full picture, they provide insight deeper than anything released before. Katie Campione’s extensive analysis, on everything from data to the timing of the release, is well worth a read here.

The late Len Wein was one of the most prolific comic book writers of his day. Like many of his contemporaries (especially Marv Wolfman and Gerry Conway), he bounced back and forth between the "Big Two" comic companies, Marvel and DC. Wein left his mark at both, co-creating characters like Swamp Thing and Lucius Fox at DC and the next generation of X-Men at Marvel.
However, his most famous creation is without a doubt Wolverine. Lein worked with then Marvel Editor-In-Chief Roy Thomas and artist John Romita Sr.; the trio debuted Logan in 1974's "Incredible Hulk" issue #180 (written by Wein). In creating Wolverine, Wein wanted to give whoever wrote "X-Men" next a new mutant character. As it turns out, that writer was Wein himself when he crafted "Giant-Size X-Men" #1 with artist Dave Cockrum the following year. Wein eventually ceded the ongoing "X-Men" series to writer Chris Claremont, but...

The Italian film and television industry could step into the gap left by the dual Hollywood strikes, leading industry executives said at a panel, organized in collaboration with the Audiovisivo Italiae, at the Venice Film Festival on Saturday.
“If supply decreases with Hollywood on strike, we need to be ready with our products for the international market as well,” said Francesco Rutelli, president of the Italian national audiovisual association Anica, speaking at a panel moderated by THR Roma editor-in-chief Concita De Gregorio.
“We need to interpret market changes in real-time. And we need the government to issue certain rules with respect to these changes. It’s not a matter of changing the system’s regulations, but of adjusting them quickly to the changed and rapid changes taking place.”

The UK’s influential Culture, Media & Sport Committee has written to both the BBC and The Sun over investigations into Huw Edwards and Dan Wootton.
Caroline Dinenage wrote to BBC Acting Chair Elan Closs Stephens yesterday saying the committee is “keen to see that the BBC conducts its two wider reviews in a transparent manner” following the Edwards scandal.
The BBC has launched two reviews since the accusations against Edwards, one of which will be a ‘factfinding’ investigation and the other a more detailed work on protocols. Director General Tim Davie has already said the latter could take several months to report back and a Deloitte partner has been drafted in to help.
“We share your concern to respect the privacy of individuals and to give due regard to the BBC’s duty of care obligations,” said Dinenage’s letter. “As such it is entirely appropriate that the BBC’s...

Journalists and other personnel at BBC News remain divided over the organisation’s treatment of the story concerning its most senior news anchor Huw Edwards – identified on Wednesday as the presenter at the centre of allegations of spending thousands of pounds on sexual pictures.
The Times of London reports concerns within the building that one BBC news presenter, Victoria Derbyshire, had been making enquiries about the alleged behaviour of another senior presenter, in the days before the scandal came to light. Derbyshire went on to break a story on daily current affairs show Newsnight that three BBC staffers (current and past) had accused Edwards of sending them inappropriate messages.
The Times quotes another unnamed presenter saying, “I felt like it was more of an Hr thing than a story.”

‘My Adventures With Superman’ Episode 1 Recap & Ending, Explained: Did Lois Find Out Clark’s Secret?
Right from the day of his first appearance, the Man of Steel has soared the highest in the animated adaptations of his adventures, which was pretty evident even from the earliest entries like the 1940s Fleischer Superman Cartoons, a collection of short films with animation way ahead of its time. During the tail end of the last millennium, the classic Superman: The Animated Series was released as a part of the Timmverse, which reinstated Superman’s relevancy for a new generation. In recent years, the silver screen ventures of Superman, veering toward a cynical, deconstructionist approach, have contributed to a lapse in the popularity of the character. This was somewhat countered by CW’s Superman & Lois, and now DC/Adult Swim has released the animated series My Adventures With Superman, aiming at a similar purpose: reinventing Superman for the modern generation while retaining all his core characteristics.

While the royal family has made headlines following events like Trooping the Colour and their appearances at the Royal Ascot, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have also been in the news but not for reasons they would have liked.
In June, Spotify declined to renew the duchess’s Archetypes podcast for a second season. Spotify executive Bill Simmons then publicly called Harry and Meghan “f****** grifters.” On top of that, their ideas for Netflix were labeled as “sub-par” prompting reports that the streaming giant will end its contract with the pair when it’s up in 2025. The royal family hasn’t commented on any news related to the Sussexes but according to a biographer, they’re laughing about it now.
