Ten years after “The L Word’s” cancellation, Jennifer Beals is ready to make her return as the ever-so-professional Bette Porter. She’ll not only star in the continued story, but she’ll also executive produce alongside original co-stars Leisha Hailey and Katherine Moennig, and creator Ilene Chaiken.
Beals has been hard at work in front of and behind the camera. In addition to the highly anticipated show’s premiere, Beals has made headlines recently for her work as an executive producer on “The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo” as well as her book “The Hive.”
Her first mention in Variety was on Oct. 20, 1982, for her star-making role as Alex Owens in “Flashdance.”
Have you seen your first mention in Variety?
Can I be honest? I had never seen it before and it’s because I was at a point in my life where I didn’t even have a career.

“Men in Black: International,” Sony’s reboot of the ’90s Will Smith sci-fi comedy franchise, earned $3.1 million in its Thursday box office previews starting at 4 p.m. from 3,472 locations. It opens on over 4,200 screens this weekend.
“Thor: Ragnarok” stars Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson are putting on their best black suits and sunglasses as they hope to keep the franchise alive despite the absence of mainstays Smith and Tommy Lee Jones across the three films dating back to 1997.
It’s a big risk for Sony, which is projecting a $30 million opening opposite a $110 million budget, which is still less than half the previous “Mib” film’s budget. Independent trackers say the film could go as high as $35-40 million. However, all three previous “Men in Black” films managed to open in the low $50 million range. A good comparison is Sony’s own reboot of “Ghostbusters” from 2016. That film opened to...

The M.O. of familiarity, convention and rushing-to-get-started desperation in “Men in Black: International” is made abundantly clear from the opening credits and an opening 20 minutes that feels like a frantic car chase and collision. Beginning with the familiar chalkboard-style franchise font, instead of introducing anyone, it only details the production companies and the title before elevator-slam-dropping you, in media res, into a clunky and noisy prologue with Agents H (Chris Hemsworth) and T (Liam Neeson) fighting an advanced alien race called The Hive.

Director David Yarovesky’s obsession with horror movies puts a unique spin on Brightburn.
While James Gunn (Guardians of the Galaxy) is the big filmmaking name on the new superhero/horror hybrid Brightburn -- he produced the picture, which was written by his brother Mark and cousin Brian -- the person actually behind the camera on the movie is director David Yarovesky. A longtime friend of Gunn’s, Yarovesky cut his teeth on videos, commercials and short films before making his feature writing and directing debut with the micro-budget horror movie The Hive.
Yarovesky is still working with a relatively modest budget on Brightburn, but that’s part of the movie’s charm: in many ways it’s a bit of a throwback to the sort of mid-level horror sleepers that dominated the late 1970s and 1980s. The movie stars Elizabeth Banks and David Denman as a...

What if baby Superman crashed onto the Earth and turned out to be an evil bastard instead of a do-gooder? That’s the idea behind Brightburn, a horrorshow that doesn’t have a clue about what to do with a clever premise. Produced by James Gunn (Guardians of the Galaxy), who unfortunately left the screenwriting to his less-talented brother Brian and their cousin Mark — it’s not a good day for nepotism — this superhero/scary movie mash-up never catches fire. Director David Yarovesky (The Hive) doesn’t just demand audiences to suspend disbelief.

Originally announced as an “untitled James Gunn horror project,” shrouded in mystery, and then finding itself caught in the crosshairs of the filmmaker’s controversial firing from the upcoming “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3” by Disney (since re-hired), the dark, deconstructive superhero film, “Brightburn” has been through the wringer on its way to the screen. Actually directed by frequent Gunn family collaborator David Yarovesky (“The Hive”), it’s a shame all this baggage hangs over “Brightburn” because the film is a gem, especially for anyone yearning for a superhero film that gleefully torches the familiar “good versus evil” formula and introduces far more sinister sensibilities.

“Superman” meets “The Omen” in “Brightburn,” a watchable but super-silly mix of superheroics and evil-child horror that mashes together singularly uninspired ideas from both. Offering R-rated fantasy competition to “Aladdin” this Memorial Day weekend, it should do Ok with undiscriminating audiences seeking familiar, forgettable genre thrills. But the franchise prayers that an open-ended fadeout dangles seem unlikely to be answered, unless they’re heard in the realm of cheaper, direct-to-streaming sequels.
Not that this hopeful kickoff is exactly deluxe, though it does rep a modest budgetary leap from helmer David Yarovesky’s prior feature, 2014 sci-fi horror “The Hive.” The advertising for “Brightburn” prominently bills James Gunn, “visionary filmmaker behind ‘Guardians of the Galaxy.’” That it turns out he’s just a producer here (relatives Brian and Mark Gunn are the scenarists) may lead to some annoyance among those expecting more than B-movie-level spectacle.

After the firing (and since rehiring), of director James Gunn from Guardians of the Galaxy 3, his writer brother Brian and cousin Mark Gunn crafted this dark Superman-like origin/ spin with Jg on board as producer. In many ways, Brightburn could be interpreted as a twisted manifestation of Gunn’s burnt feelings for superhero cinema after the Disney debacle. With his family writing and director David Yarovesky (The Hive) behind the mic, Brightburn sears like a great flaming bird flip: a sit, swivel and spin on superhero franchises, crafted with an energy, ironic venom and flair to make it timely, fun and electrifying.
The film starts in Brightburn, Kansas, on the farm of thirty-something married couple Tori and Kyle Breyer (Elizabeth Banks and David Denman), who have been trying for a while to fall pregnant. Cue the mammoth fiery meteorite/ space capsule (conveniently carrying a baby) that comes crashing down into the forest near their farm.

Those of you who have been watching The Umbrella Academy know that a key scene takes place at the grassy knoll overlooking Dealey Plaza in Dallas, Texas, November 22nd, 1963. The assassination of President John F. Kennedy was a watershed moment in American politics and a major news story around the world, so it’s perhaps no surprise that it’s even more irresistible to time travellers and conspiracy theorists than attempts to kill Hitler or aliens at Roswell.

James Gunn's superhero/horror mashup, Brightburn, puts a terrifying twist on a familiar superhero origin trope.
You ever wonder what life would be like if Clark Kent weren't such a nice guy? Apparently so has director James Gunn.
Brightburn was announced as an "untitled James Gunn horror project" earlier this year, shortly before Gunn was forced out by Disney from the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. Gunn serves as producer on Brightburn and his name is understandably all over the thing. But the movie is actually directed by David Yarovesky (The Hive), based on a script from Mark and Brian Gunn.
Elizabeth Banks is set to star as the monster superhero boy's mother, which is honestly kind of the role she was born to play...or slay.

James Gunn isn’t returning to the director’s chair just yet, but he is one of the creative minds behind the mysterious new movie “BrightBurn.” Sony Pictures has released the first official trailer for the genre mashup, and it looks like a unique horror spin on what is more or less a traditional superhero origin story.
“BrightBurn” stars Elizabeth Banks and David Denman as a couple who discover a baby boy and raise him as their own. The child happens to be an alien that crash landed to Earth as an infant, similar to Kal-El/Superman. But what if instead of growing up to be a superhero, the alien child turned into something far more evil? That’s the central question at the heart of “BrightBurn.”
Gunn produced the film along with his brothers, Mark Gunn and Brian Gunn, both of whom also wrote the film’s screenplay. “BrightBurn” is directed by David Yarovesky,...

James Gunn produces, with executive producers Mark Gunn, Brian Gunn, Dan Clifton, Simon Hatt, and Nic Crawley. The H Collective fully financed the feature and produced alongside Gunn’s company, Troll Court Entertainment. Screen Gems will release the film wide theatrically in the Us over Memorial Day weekend on May 24, 2019, with...

James Gunn's mysterious Brightburn is coming into focus, and the first trailer reveals it's a dark twist on one of the most famous comic book tales of all time.
The trailer reveals that the film centers on a rural couple (Elizabeth Banks and David Denman), who discover an alien baby and adopt it. But no, this is no Superman. This child (Jackson A. Dunn) grows up not be a hero, but instead is a dark presence.

The milestone 20th season of CBS reality series Big Brother was quickly deemed by fans as one of the best seasons of the show yet. The summer kicked off with a new cast of standout characters, a slew of epic competitions and one blindside after another.
Among its cast of 16 houseguests was runner-up Tyler Crispen and his ally-turned-showmance Angela Rummans.
The pair were part of the "Level Six" alliance that dominated most of the game as they challenged the other side of the house, otherwise known as "Foutte" and "The Hive."

Congratulations, Rockstar! You finally won something this season — sort of: 37 percent of our readers say you made dumbest move of The Hive on “Big Brother 20.”
We know, it was probably a Sophie’s Choice for many of you. The Hive did so much idiotic stuff this season you had to see to believe; they were like the walking embodiment of “Is this real life?” And really, you couldn’t have scripted Rockstar’s Otev blunder any better. She told Tyler the correct answer for some reason, allowing him to change his answer before Haleigh could find one. Why would you check your answer with the enemy — whose side just secretly put you on the block — instead of with your ally? We may never know. Rockstar had a chance to redeem herself in the final round, returning first with an answer, but ironically she brought back the wrong one, handing the Veto to Tyler.

Either Jc, Kaycee or Tyler will walk away with the $500,000 prize on Wednesday’s “Big Brother 20” finale. But as we all know, who will win and who should win are two completely different things. Sometimes they align, sometimes they don’t, and they definitely don’t on “Big Brother” when a bitter jury is involved. All three finalists have a case to be made for winning, so who would be the most deserving of them all?
Jc
On paper, Jc looks like a classic floater who was dragged to the finale as an easy goat to sit alongside. His comp resume is by far the weakest of the three, with just one victory, but it was a very big one. He won the final four Hoh to ensure a spot in the final three and save himself because he was definitely going to get cut had Level 6 won it. If...

Now that Kaycee hasn’t used the Veto, barring an epic turn of events, Haleigh will walk out the door on Thursday’s “Big Brother 20,” completing Level 6’s clean sweep of sending The Hive members to jury one by one. So it’s another straightforward week, but we do have one thing to look forward to Thursday: the double eviction. Who do you want to follow Haleigh to the jury house?
Whoever goes obviously depends on who wins Hoh, for which everyone is eligible except Kaycee. The houseguests are suspecting a double this week since they haven’t had one yet and they did the math to get to the finale date. Level 6’s initial goal was to get Sam out in the double, which is not a terrible idea but also would be a rather boring double eviction. They were keeping her around as long as Haleigh was there...

Hard to believe, but “Big Brother 20” will be halfway over after this week. But that also means it’s a perfect time to see how your feelings have or haven’t changed about these houseguests since the season began — and who is the frontrunner to win America’s Favorite Houseguest now.
Earlier this summer, Tyler was voted as your favorite player so far. And based on his gameplay and overall easygoing demeanor, he hasn’t done much to fall out of favor in the last month. He’s still the favorite to win the whole thing.
The same, however, cannot be said of Sam, who came in second last month. After charming us all as RoboSam, Human Sam has emerged to be, well, an emotional wild card. Her mood swings and wild rants and confessions haven’t been spotlighted that much on the broadcast show, but she almost self-evicted before...

The blindsides have been a hallmark of “Big Brother 20,” and thanks to them, we haven’t had a unanimous vote yet after seven weeks. But that streak looks very likely to end on Thursday.
After failing to win the Veto, Scottie, who is Faysal‘s target mainly because he wants him to stay away from Haleigh, remains on the block against Kaycee, a pawn Fessy put up after Veto champ Brett took himself off. Scottie, who has been the top suspect of houseguests for multiple vote flips, knew he was toast without the Veto and deployed a strategy not to save himself but Haleigh, to whom he had been getting close. He threw Haleigh under the bus to Fessy, calling her Kaitlyn 2.0, but later confessed to Haleigh that he did it to separate himself from her because he’s a “sinking ship,” and this way she could move forward without being associated with him.

Will The Hive ever do anything right on “Big Brother 20”? There’s a month left in the game, so there’s still time, but it doesn’t look likely. The Hive has made so many moves that are questionable at best and “Wtf are you thinking?!” at worst, like Faysal nominating Scottie, aka one of his two alliance members left, mainly because Jc told him that Scottie was after his girl Haleigh. Unfortunately he did this after we launched our poll asking what is The Hive’s biggest blunder so far, so, for now, 66 percent of you say Rockstar’s tragic Otev performance takes the cake.

No, Beyoncé fans, that's not the Hive we're talking about.
The Hive consisting of Bayleigh and Rockstar (voted out), Faysal, Haleigh, and Scottie has to be one of Big Brother's most ineffective alliances in the history of the series.
At this rate, they have a snowball's chance in hell of winning the game or making it to the end.
Do you want to know the best part? Hive fans know that but still unabashedly root for them anyway. You know what's even better? The Hive knows they're perpetual screwups, too. They even joked about being the "Bad News Bears."
Every week fans watch as the lovable group of losers struggles to rub two brain cells together long enough to formulate a plan.

Big Brother season 20 has seen a house divided from its beginning.
On one side, there is the alliance of "Level Six" who have so far dominated most of the game. Then there's "The Hive," formerly known as "Foutte," aka the group that just can't seem to get it together.
Throughout the season, they haven't been able to make moves, control the house vote and stick together like their rivals have.

You know how everyone on “The Bachelor” and “The Bachelorette” say they’re “here for the right reasons”? Well, Faysal is on “Big Brother 20” for the wrong reasons. He actually should be on “The Bachelor,” given how obsessed he is with Haleigh and his facepalm-inducing nominations of Scottie and Brett.

But he’s worked his charm and good-natured ‘tude so well that The Hive, of course, fell for it, especially Rockstar, who was all about forming a secret final two with him — Mr. and Mrs. Smith — in an effort to secure his vote to save her this week.

Tyler won the battle, but can he win the war? The “Big Brother 20” houseguest won Otev on Wednesday’s episode — with some help and ineptitude from Rockstar — but no Otev champ has ever gone on to win “Big Brother.”

Remember when everyone not in Level 6 wanted to get Brett out on “Big Brother 20”? What a difference a few weeks make. Brett has gone from target No. 1 to no one’s target, a 180 that is as surprising as it is commendable for how he pulled it off.
Losing his bro Winston was the best thing to happen to Brett. The two of them were seen as a threat by the other side, and Scottie successfully split them up, even though Foutte/The Hive was blindsided by the flip to evict Winston. Because The Hive is utterly clueless about Level 6 and because of his lack of comp wins, Brett has been able to cultivate a “free agent” image of someone looking for a group — or any ally — and is doing whatever he can to survive and advance without his Brotp.

“Big Brother 20” has been a tale of two alliances. The Hive, formerly known as Foutte, has been comically bad every step of the way, while Level 6 has been crushing it, concocting five blindsides (a sixth is currently in the works). Is Level 6 the best alliance of all time? Depends on what you value, but it’s definitely up there. Level 6 isn’t perfect and hasn’t been your traditional dominant alliance — its members, Tyler, Angela, Kaycee, Brett, Winston and Rachel, have only won two of the seven HOHs so far — but what makes it so successful is its cohesiveness as a team. A good, effective alliance isn’t just about winning comps and getting your target out; there are a bunch of intangibles that Level 6 has mastered better than anyone else.
1. They trust each other.
How many alliances have we seen collapse because its members don’t trust each other?...

As our Friend Chandler Bing would say, “Could The Hive be more dumb?” The answer is yes. Every week on “Big Brother 20,” we wait for The Alliance Formerly Known as Foutte to realize there’s another alliance in the house, but six weeks and five blindsides in, they’re still in the dark — so much so that 67 percent of our readers voted that The Hive is “hopeless” and won’t ever figure it out.
About 9 percent voted that The Hive would realize Level 6’s existence after Week 6, during which Angela used the Veto on Tyler and backdoored Bayleigh. But Week 6 has come and gone, and is now highlighted by Bayleigh’s epic meltdown during Haleigh‘s ill-advised house meeting to reveal herself as the hacker in an effort to save Bayleigh.
That’s the other thing: The Hive makes such nonsensical decisions and screw themselves even when they’re in power.

One of the best parts of “Big Brother 20” has been the blindsides. There have been four through five weeks, and each one has been against Foutte, now known as The Hive. It’s made for some amazing, hilarious television, because those suckers truly are not expecting it, and then you think each one is going to be the last. Surely these people will figure there’s another alliance in the house, right? Nope, still not yet! So will these ding-dongs ever realize it?

Having made a ton of money for Disney and Marvel Studios by directing two Guardians of the Galaxy flicks, one could say that James Gunn is currently a hot commodity. Still, he hasn’t forgotten where he came from and will soon return to the genre where he first made his mark, that being horror.
Earlier this week, we reported that a reunion of sorts is in the cards, this time involving the writer/director and actress Elizabeth Banks. Having previously starred in Gunn’s directorial debut, 2006’s Slither, she’ll again take part in one of his upcoming projects. And while we don’t know what the horror movie will be titled or what it’ll be about, it has been confirmed that Gunn will produce, with David Yarovesky (The Hive) set to direct.
