HBO's Harry Potter series aims to attract new fans while navigating controversies surrounding J.K. Rowling's anti-trans activism.
Tom Mauser, whose son Daniel Mauser was shot and killed among 13 others in the 1999 massacre at Columbine High School, expressed disgust over the movie's twist, stating it is 'awful' to use such a serious subject as a plot device in a romantic comedy.
Netflix and Universal were very kind to let me go direct Scream VII and put some projects on hold. Now I'm focused on those. The first is a TV show based in the Universal monster land. It won't skimp on Williamson's penchant for melodrama, either: he compared the project to an adult Vampire Diaries, which we've not really gotten from him before.
A native Angeleno, Stewart grew up in the San Fernando Valley and moved to LA's Eastside when she was 20. "I absolutely f**king love this city," she insists. "There's a kind of unified dissonance because it's not really a city as much as a cluster of neighborhoods, but there's unity in that. I like the spaciousness.

The only way to watch today is either a little bit sleepy, a little bit hungover, a tiny bit high, or all three. It was a provocative, pseudo tongue-in-cheek movie in 1996 when it was released on January 18, and 30 years later, it feels like a surreal fever dream.

We obviously grew up together and spent a lot of time on camera together, she said. To not have that for 20 years and work with different people and have all these different experiences, and then come back together? Oh my god, I remember how much I know you on camera and you know me on camera.' It's so special, and it was so much fun because we work really well together.
