This actor is making a comeback to comedy
The nerdy-goofy looking man Austin Powers is making a comeback to the roots of comedy, only not as Austin Powers himself. Before you think too much, we are talking about actor Mike Myers, who is coming back to comedy where he is getting his own show on Netflix.
According to reports, the series will be a limited one and will only consist of six episodes. Not too much has been known about the project so far, but Myers is said to be playing multiple characters for the show and will also serve as one of the executive producers.
Myers has plenty of character work under his belt from SNL and has played multiple roles throughout the Austin Powers trilogy, so a skit-style show or narrative-driven series are both conceivable.
That said, it's been a while since Myers has starred on screen in anything. Outside of smaller roles in Bohemian Rhapsody and Terminal last year, Myers hasn't headlined a film since Shrek Forever After in 2010 and hasn't been the lead in a live-action project since 2008's The Love Guru.
The creators of THIS MEGA show are headed to court
Netflix's mega show Stranger Things is all set to release on the streaming service in the next couple of months where the trailer of the series was released over a fortnight ago. But the off-set drama surrounding the show doesn't seem to be ending anytime soon as the creators of the show, Matt and Ross Duffer - The Duffer Brothers are headed for trial as they are accused of stealing the idea of the show.
According to a report in The Hollywood Reporter, a potential trial exploring whether Stranger Things creators Matt and Ross Duffer stole the idea for their Netflix show from a guy who allegedly pitched a project at the 2014 Tribeca Film Festival.
On Wednesday, a Los Angeles Superior Court denied summary judgment to the Duffer brothers in a lawsuit brought by Charlie Kessler.
Kessler alleges Stranger Things is based on a feature film script titled The Montauk Project set in the New York town in which he says is home to "various urban legends, and paranormal and conspiracy theories."
In January, in response to claims of breaching an implied contract, the Duffer brothers argued they didn't "manifest any intent to enter into a binding agreement" with Kessler, that they independently created Stranger Things and the ideas Kessler says he disclosed were not novel.
"Charlie Kessler asserts that he met the Duffers, then two young filmmakers whom Kessler never had heard of, and chatted with them for ten to fifteen minutes," wrote the defendants' attorney. "That casual conversation" during which the Duffers supposedly said that they all 'should work together' and asked 'what [Kessler] was working on "is the sole basis for the alleged implied contract at issue in this lawsuit and for Kessler's meritless theory that the Duffers used his ideas to create Stranger Things."
In denying summary judgment Wednesday, Los Angeles Superior Judge Michael Stern says there is no "novel" requirement under either New York or California law.
The Duffers have submitted declarations that this isn't remotely true " that they've long been fascinated by urban legends and conspiracy theories and began working on a film on the topic in 2010.
Stern says the problem with these declarations about independent creation is that they lack verifying evidence of the originality of their idea.

Even though the teaser gets out, this show gets suddenly SHUT DOWN
DC Universe is at an all-time high in terms of its movies as after Aquaman, Shazam! has also done wonders both in terms of the critical acclaim and box office collections too.
The universe is also planning to extend with multiple series in works and one of them was Swamp Thing, which was in the talks for a long time. In fact, the teaser of the show went live a while ago too.
But what makes things interesting is that according to a report in Batman-News.Com, the Swamp Thing series may be cutting its first season short.
The series has been filming in the Wilmington, North Carolina area since November 2018 and was expected to continue shooting through May of this year. However, a new report from the Wilmington Star News says the crew got some surprising news on Tuesday evening.
According to the media report, the crew was informed that the series would be wrapping production with episode 10 despite the plan calling for 13 episodes. Writers would be in the process of adjusting the script to account for the shortened season.
The potentially most disturbing portion of the report is that the crew who shared the information said they were told it was because Warner Bros. is assessing the future of the DC Universe service. Having only launched this past September that does seem a bit fast for such an assessment to already be happening, but the streaming landscape has changed significantly in that time period.
