Laura Ingalls Wilder’s classic Little House books are being adapted for television once again, with Netflix announcing production has kicked off on the Little House on the Prairie reboot’s first season. The new series stars Luke Bracey as Charles Ingalls and Crosby Fitzgerald as Caroline Ingalls.
The cast also includes Alice Halsey as Laura Ingalls, Skywalker Hughes as Mary Ingalls, Warren Christie as John Edwards, and Jocko Sims as Dr. George Tann. Meegwun Fairbrother is Mitchell, Alyssa Wapanatâhk is White Sun, Wren Zhawenim Gotts is Good Eagle, and Xander Cole is Little Puma.
“Part hopeful family drama, part epic survival tale, and part origin story of the American West, this fresh adaptation of Laura Ingalls Wilder’s iconic semi-autobiographical Little House books offers a kaleidoscopic view of the struggles and triumphs of those who shaped the frontier,” reads Netflix’s synopsis.
Rebecca Sonnenshine (The Boys) is the showrunner and serves as an executive producer along with Joy Gorman Wettels, Trip Friendly, Dana Fox, and Susanna Fogel. Sarah Adina Smith will direct the reboot’s first episode.
“I am absolutely thrilled with the brilliant cast we have assembled,” stated Sonnenshine in an interview with Netflix’s Tudum. “Each one of them brings something special to the Little House universe and will help make this story come alive for a whole new generation.”

SundanceTV’s Butchers of L.A. documentary series explores the brutal murders committed by the Freeway Killers back in the ’70s and ’80s. The three-part true crime docuseries premieres on Thursday, June 26, 2025 at 10pm ET/PT on SundanceTV, Sundance Now, and AMC+. Part two airs on July 3, followed by part three on July 10.
David Harvey (The Heiress and the Heist) directs and Peninsula Television’s Mariana Rios Sanchez serves as a producer. Sphere Abacus’ Jonathan Ford executive produces.
“From the early 1970s, gay men were being savagely murdered and their bodies carelessly discarded along Southern California’s highways. Initially, police suspected a single perpetrator, but the detectives’ investigation ultimately revealed that three killers were operating, independently of each other, in the same vicinity,” reads SundanceTV’s synopsis. “With intertwined storylines and dramatic twists and turns throughout, Butchers of L.A. exposes three sadistic serial killers — Patrick Kearney, William Bonin, and Randy Kraft — and explains the truth behind these horrifying events.”

Netflix just released the trailer for Trainwreck: The Cult of American Apparel, the fourth installment in the eight-episode Trainwreck anthology series. The episode, which delves into the clothing company American Apparel, will premiere on July 1, 2025.
Sally Rose Griffiths (Born Famous) directs and Sheun Adelasoye De Nicola, Alexander Marengo, Tim Wardle, Casey Feldman, Erica Roberts, and William Swann serve as executive producers.
“In the early 2000s, American Apparel becomes one of the United States’ most successful fashion brands, known for its colorful casual clothing, ethical production and its sexually provocative advertising campaigns. For young staffers it’s an exciting time; a chance to be part of a cult-like company revolutionizing the fashion industry, and an opportunity to learn from American Apparel’s charismatic CEO and founder, Dov Charney,” reads Netflix’s synopsis.
“But as the brand quickly expands, the young employees begin to realise that American Apparel’s shiny surface is hiding a darker reality. Charney’s chaotic management starts to hit the company’s finances, and he is accused of sexual harassment by female employees. As problems mount and the company begins to implode, staff members are forced to come to terms with the toxic work environment Charney has created.”

HBO offers this synopsis:
“Surviving Ohio State tells the story of the male victims of Dr. Richard Strauss, a sports medicine physician and serial sex abuser employed by The Ohio State University (OSU) from 1978 to 1998. Bravely told by the student-athletes and others who concealed their trauma for years, the film builds on the efforts of whistleblowers and journalists who exposed the scandal in 2018. It also examines the culture that allowed the abuse to continue unchecked for nearly two decades at OSU, as well as the survivors’ present-day fight to hold the school accountable.
Based on Jon Wertheim’s Sports Illustrated cover story ‘Why Aren’t More People Talking About the Ohio State Sex Abuse Scandal,’ Surviving Ohio State features numerous male athletes, including several former All-American wrestlers, who have come forward to share their experiences of abuse during their time at The Ohio State University. The film includes revealing interviews with OSU student-athlete alumni Mark Coleman, Adam DiSabato, Michael DiSabato, Will Knight, Al Novakowski, Rockey Ratliff, Dan Ritchie, and Mike Schyck; OSU alumnus Stephen Snyder-Hill, wrestling referee Frederick Feeney, and others.”

In this Corporate Era, cyborgs (humans with both biological and artificial parts) and synthetics (humanoid robots with artificial intelligence) exist alongside humans,” reads FX’s synopsis. “But the game is changed when the wunderkind Founder and CEO of Prodigy Corporation unlocks a new technological advancement: hybrids (humanoid robots infused with human consciousness). The first hybrid prototype named ‘Wendy’ marks a new dawn in the race for immortality. After Weyland-Yutani’s spaceship collides into Prodigy City, ‘Wendy’ and the other hybrids encounter mysterious life forms more terrifying than anyone could have ever imagined.”
