According to Deadline‘s exclusive report, Don’t Let Them Out follows “a struggling woman who journeys to a property she has inherited in hopes of selling it to pay off her debts.

Keeping Faith In ‘The Traitors’
Staying faithful: Has there been another entertainment show with an impact nearing that of The Traitors in recent years? The reality whodunnit format has sold around the world after debuting in the Netherlands, becoming a smash on Peacock and the BBC in the UK. For my money, it’s the casting that’s marked it out from the crowd, and casting will be all-important to the upcoming British celebrity version. As Stewart and Max revealed yesterday, the BBC and Studio Lambert — which makes the UK and U.S. versions — are close to a deal make a version with famous faces.

Electronic Arts, which makes such games as Madden NFL and Apex Legends, said today that it plans to lay off five percent of its employees and will discontinue work on several games.
The announcement continues the ongoing downsizing in the gaming and tech space, a development that has seen thousands of jobs lost.
EA said the layoffs are part of a broader restructuring aimed at supporting “strategic priorities and growth initiatives,” according to a Tuesday securities filing. EA said in that document that it also plans to reduce its office space footprint.
Last year, EA sliced 800 employees, while Epic Games cut 830 jobs in September. In January, Tencent’s Riot Games said it would lay off 11% of its workforce and Microsoft said it would cull 1,900 jobs from its Activision Blizzard and Xbox gaming divisions.
On Tuesday, Sony said on Tuesday it would cut 8% of its global workforce, amounting to around 900 jobs.

The “Law & Order” universe is heading up north. Citytv has ordered the series “Law & Order Toronto: Criminal Intent,” Rogers Media announced on Monday. The pickup was revealed a day before Rogers Media’s virtual upfront presentation on June 6.
The Toronto iteration hails from Vancouver-based Lark Productions and Cameron Pictures Inc. in association with Citytv. The first season is planned as ten hour-long episodes, set to premiere in Spring 2024. The show is based on the “Law & Order” franchise created by Dick Wolf for Universal Television, which will distribute the series internationally.

The original “Criminal Intent,” created and produced by Wolf and René Balcer, ran for 10 seasons between 2001 and 2011, and starred Vincent D’Onofrio and Kathryn Erbe.

R&b is one of the biggest genres not only in music consumption but in the awards conversation. Artists like Beyoncé, Silk Sonic, Jazmine Sullivan, Jon Batiste, and H.E.R. have made a lot of noise due to their success at the Grammys, and it’s likely that one or two breakouts from this year will join their ranks. Let’s take a look at some buzzing names in R&b contention this year.
SEEBillboard Hot 100: Every #1 song of 2023
If you’re talking about R&b in 2023, you have to talk about Sza. The singer-songwriter has had a great year with the success of her sophomore album, “Sos.” It’s indisputably the frontrunner for Best Progressive R&b Album. There is, perhaps, a chance that the record could be moved to the pop field because it juggles many genres at once, but let’s assume it’s in R&b for now.

This story about “The Fabelmans” Star Gabriel Labelle first appeared in the Race Begins issue of TheWrap’s awards magazine.
When he walked into TheWrap’s studio at the Toronto International Film Festival in September wearing a tracksuit and sporting a big grin, Gabriel Labelle was a 19-year-old Canadian actor who’d never before done an interview. And more to the point, when he arrived at TIFF, he was an unknown who’d done a handful of roles since making his acting debut at the age of 11 on the Canadian TV series “Motive.”
But when he left Toronto a few days and a lot of interviews later, he was the star of “The Fabelmans,” the film that would win the festival’s People’s Choice Award and become an instant awards frontrunner. The movie, written by Steven Spielberg and Tony Kushner and based on Spielberg’s own experiences growing up as an aspiring filmmaker,...

After dropping the epic “Lord of the Rings” television series on Prime Video last month, it’s no surprise the streaming giant is taking it easy this October. They still have plenty of new shows and movies coming out, though none quite on the scale of their journey to Middle Earth.
That being said, they’re transitioning from the world of fantasy to science fiction with their new series “The Peripheral.” Touted as being from the creators of HBO’s “Westworld,” Lisa Joy and Jonathan Nolan, the time-traveling series is based on author William Gibson’s bestselling sci-fi novel.
Per an official synopsis: “The Peripheral” centers on Flynne Fisher (Moretz), a woman trying to hold together the pieces of her broken family in a forgotten corner of tomorrow’s America. Flynne is smart, ambitious, and doomed. She has no future; until the future comes calling for her. “The Peripheral” is...

Titled “Langdon,” the sequel from writer Daniel Cerone follows the early adventures of famed Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon, the same character played by Tom Hanks on the big screen. After his mentor is kidnapped, Langdon finds himself pulled into a series of deadly puzzles. The CIA then forces him onto a task force, where he uncovers a chilling conspiracy.
The novel, published in 2009, is the third in Brown’s Robert Langdon series, which also includes “The Da Vinci Code” and “Angels & Demons.”
