Paul McCartney’s High in the Clouds coming to Netflix (Photo Courtesy of Netflix)
Sir Paul McCartney’s bestselling children’s novel, High in the Clouds, has been acquired by Netflix. The streaming service and Gaumont announced they will be adapting the book from McCartney, Geoff Dunbar, and Philip Ardagh into an animated feature film.
“We are thrilled to be partnering with Netflix. They complement what is already an amazing team with Gaumont and we can think of no-one better to be working with to bring our film to a global audience. I’ve always loved animated films and this is a hugely important passion project for me. I can’t wait for the world to see it,” stated Paul McCartney.
Oscar nominee Timothy Reckart (Head Over Heels) is attached to direct. Jon Croker (Paddington, Paddington 2, Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald) is on board to write the screenplay.
“The development of High in the Clouds has been a fantastic journey working together with Tim and Jon and of course, my amazing Gaumont Animation and Family team, Terry Kalagian and Alex Soto. We feel fortunate as this has been an extremely collaborative creative process with the incomparable Paul McCartney and his team, including Lee Eastman who has offered invaluable guidance throughout the development stage. We at Gaumont are elated to be announcing this project and are excited to be working with Melissa Cobb, Gregg Taylor and the talented team at Netflix to be able to share this truly special musical animated feature film with audiences around the world,” says Nicolas Atlan, President Gaumont Animation and Family.
Paul McCartney will be involved as a producer and is writing the original songs and music. Bob Shaye, the late Michael Lynne, Sidonie Dumas, Christophe Riandee, Nicolas Atlan, and Gaumont’s Terry Kalagian are also producing.
“Bringing the world a new animated film from the heart and mind of the brilliant Paul McCartney is undoubtedly one of the greatest thrills we’ve experienced at Netflix. We’re beyond grateful to be partnering with Nicolas and the Gaumont team on High in the Clouds, and with Tim at the helm, this whimsical story celebrating individuality and the unifying power of music is in great hands,” says Gregg Taylor, Netflix Director of Original Animated Films.
The Plot, Courtesy of Netflix:
“An imaginative teenage squirrel named Wirral finds himself pulled into a ramshackle gang of teenage rebels who live high in the clouds after he accidentally antagonizes Gretsch the owl, the tyrannical leader (and fabulous singer!), who steals the voice of anyone who upstages her.”
CBS’s Hawaii Five-0 season 10 episode 11 finds Steve confronting a ghost from his past. The fall finale was directed by Karen Gaviola from a script by Kendall Sherwood. “Kā i ka ‘ino, no ka ‘ino,” Hawaiian for “To Return Evil for Evil,” will air on Friday, December 13, 2019 at 8pm ET/PT.
Episode 11’s guest cast includes Eugenia Yuan, Brian Arthur Cox, Chloe Brooks, Julien Foures, Randy Shibuya, Jamal Akakpo, and Esera Tavai Tuaolo.

Beulah Koale stars as Junior Reigns, Chi McBride is Captain Lou Grover, Katrina Law is Quinn Liu, Taylor Wily plays Kamekona, Dennis Chun is Sgt. Duke Lukela, and Kimee Balmilero plays Dr. Noelani Cunha.
“Kā i ka ‘ino, no ka ‘ino” Plot – When Five-0 investigates a tourist helicopter that was shot down by a missile, they trace the stolen artillery to a ghost from McGarrett’s past – Wo Fat. Also, after Adam’s ordeal in rescuing Tamiko and reconnecting with the Yakuza, he makes a bold decision about his future with Five-0.
The Series Description, Courtesy of CBS:
“Hawaii Five-O is a contemporary take on the classic series about an elite federalized task force whose mission is to wipe out the crime that washes up on the islands’ sun-drenched beaches. Detective Steve McGarrett, a decorated Naval officer turned cop, returned to Oahu after Hawaii’s former governor persuaded him to head up the new team: his rules, no red tape and full blanket authority to hunt down the biggest “game” in town.
Joining McGarrett are Detective Danny “Danno” Williams, a relocated ex-New Jersey cop who is committed to keeping the islands safe for his children; Captain Lou Grover, who formerly headed Hawaii’s SWAT unit; Jerry Ortega, the islands’ local conspiracy theorist; Tani Rey, a bold, recent police academy graduate; Junior Reigns, a former SEAL who comes to McGarrett looking for a job, Adam Noshimuri, a friend with old ties to a deadly crime family and Quinn Liu, a former Staff Sergeant with Army CID who was recently demoted for insubordination.
Helping them is Kamekona, a local entrepreneur who has his pulse on the Island; Sgt. Duke Lukela, a trusted member of the HPD; and medical examiner Dr. Noelani Cunha. The state’s brash Five-0 unit, who may spar and jest among themselves, remain determined to eliminate the seedy elements from the 50th state.”
CBS’s Magnum P.I. season two’s midseason finale is set to air on Friday, December 13, 2019 at 9pm ET/PT. The last new episode of 2019 finds Magnum set up and in need of help from the team. Directed by Kristin Windell from a script by Alfredo Barrios Jr, season two episode 11 is titled “Day I Met the Devil.”
Peter Facinelli, Anthony Montgomery, Manuel Uriza, Adrian R’Mante, James Remar, Jason Remar, Duncan Kamakana, and Isiah Matanza guest star in episode 11.
Jay Hernandez stars as Thomas Magnum, Perdita Weeks plays Juliet Higgins, and Zachary Knighton is Orville “Rick” Wright. Stephen Hill is Theodore “TC” Calvin, Tim Kang is Det. Gordon Katsumoto, and Amy Hill plays Kumu. Brooke Lyons appears in a recurring role as Abby Miller.
“Day I Met the Devil” Plot – Magnum is called up from the reserves for a top secret mission, but his friends are stunned when they learn that the mission is a lie and Magnum has been set up.
The Series Description, Courtesy of CBS:
“Magnum P.I. is a modern take on the classic series centering on Thomas Magnum, a decorated former Navy SEAL who, upon returning home from Afghanistan, repurposes his military skills to become a private investigator. A charming rogue, an American hero and a die-hard Detroit Tigers fan, Magnum lives in a guest cottage on Robin’s Nest, the luxurious estate where he works as a security consultant to supplement his P.I. business.
The “majordomo” of the property is Juliet Higgins, a beautiful and commanding disavowed MI:6 agent whose second job is to keep Magnum in line, with the help of her two Dobermans. When Magnum needs back-up on a job, he turns to his trusted buddies and fellow POW survivors, Theodore “TC” Calvin, a former Marine chopper pilot who runs Island Hoppers, a helicopter tour business, and Orville “Rick” Wright, a former Marine door-gunner-turned-impresario of Oahu’s coolest nightclub and the most connected man on the island.
Suspicious of Magnum’s casual attitude and presence at his crime scenes, Detective Gordon Katsumoto finds that he and Magnum are more alike than either of them care to admit. One of Magnum’s biggest supporters is Teuila “Kumu” Tuileta, the unofficial “House Mom” and cultural curator of Robin’s Nest. With keys to a vintage Ferrari in one hand, aviator sunglasses in the other, and an Old Düsseldorf longneck chilling in the fridge, Thomas Magnum is back on the case!”

With the line, “There hasn’t been a ghost sighting in 30 years,” the first official trailer for Ghostbusters: Afterlife confirms this film has absolutely nothing to do with the 2016 Ghostbusters reboot/remake. Instead, the 2020 release will be paying tribute to the original Ghostbusters through the introduction of the grandchildren of an original Ghostbuster.
This latest entry in the Ghostbusters franchise comes from original director Ivan Reitman. Reitman’s involved as a producer and Ghostbusters star Dan Aykroyd executive produces. Ivan’s son, Jason Reitman (Up in the Air, The Front Runner), directs and co-wrote the script with executive producer Gil Kenan. Michael Beugg and Jason Blumenfeld also executive produce.
The cast includes Carrie Coon (The Sinner), Finn Wolfhard (Stranger Things), Mckenna Grace (Fuller House), and Paul Rudd (Ant-Man).
Sony Pictures has set a July 10, 2020 theatrical release date.
Ghostbusters: Afterlife Plot:
From director Jason Reitman and producer Ivan Reitman, comes the next chapter in the original Ghostbusters universe. In Ghostbusters: Afterlife, when a single mom and her two kids arrive in a small town, they begin to discover their connection to the original ghostbusters and the secret legacy their grandfather left behind.
The CW’s Legacies wraps up the first part of season two with a Christmas-themed episode titled “This Christmas Was Surprisingly Violent.” Season two episode eight was directed by Brett Matthews from a script by Matthews and Hannah Rosner. Episode eight airs on December 12, 2019.
Legacies stars Danielle Rose Russell as Hope Mikaelson, Jenny Boyd as Lizzie Saltzman, Kaylee Bryant as Josie Saltzman, and Quincy Fouse as MG. Aria Shahghasemi is Landon Kirby, Peyton Alex Smith is Rafael Waithe, and Matt Davis is Alaric Saltzman.
“This Christmas Was Surprisingly Violent” Plot – IT’S CHRISTMAS IN MYSTIC FALLS — Hope (Russell) joins forces with an unlikely ally to take down a Christmas monster, who’s using holiday cheer to infiltrate the Salvatore School. Elsewhere, Landon (Shahghasemi) surprises Rafael (Smith) with news about his family lineage, and Sebastian (guest star Thomas Doherty) accompanies Lizzie (Boyd) on her latest mission.
The Season 2 Plot:
Last season, viewers were thrilled to tap into a whole new passion for The Vampire Diaries / The Originals universe, when the third installment in the franchise launched with Legacies. Set in the Salvatore Boarding School for the Young and Gifted, Legacies told the story of the next generation of supernatural beings as they learn what it means to be special in a world that may never understand. Typically a school for vampires like MG (Fouse), werewolves like Rafael (Smith) and witches like twins Lizzie (Boyd) and Josie Saltzman (Bryant), the kids and their beloved headmaster Dr. Alaric Saltzman (Davis) were stunned to come face to face with a series of monster and creatures they had only ever heard of in myth and lore. A dragon. A gargoyle. The Headless Horseman.
The evil behind the real-life resurrection of these formerly fictional beings proved to have a horrifying connection to the school’s newest student, Landon Kirby (Shahghasemi). This led his first and only love, Hope Mikaelson (Russell), the school’s shining star, to sacrifice her place at the school — and in the world — to protect Landon from a terrible fate.
Season two will show us a world without Hope Mikaelson and all the chaos that goes along with it. All the while, Hope will be trying to find her way back to the school she has learned to call home and the friends she has learned to love like family. It will be filled with new monsters and more romantic and emotional surprises than ever.

Peter Scolari and Patrick Brammall are season one recurring guest stars as Bishop Thomas Marx and Andy Bouchard, respectively.
“7 Swans a Singin’” Plot – Kristen, David, and Ben are called to investigate an insidiously addictive Christmas song that’s spreading among an increasing number of students, and the dangerous relationship between online influencers and their impressionable young followers.
The Season 1 Plot, Courtesy of CBS:
“Evil is a psychological mystery that examines the origins of evil along the dividing line between science and religion. The series focuses on a skeptical female psychologist who joins a priest-in-training and a carpenter as they investigate the Church’s backlog of unexplained mysteries, including supposed miracles, demonic possessions and hauntings. Their job is to assess if there’s a logical explanation or if something truly supernatural is at work.”
The CW’s Riverdale finishes up the first part of season four with the midseason finale, “Tangerine.” Season four episode nine was directed by Gabriel Correa from a script by Brian E. Paterson and will air on December 11, 2019.

Madelaine Petsch is Cheryl Blossom, Marisol Nichols is Hermione Lodge, Mӓdchen Amick is Alice Cooper, Ashleigh Murray is Josie McCoy, Casey Cott is Kevin Keller, Mark Consuelos is Hiram Lodge, Skeet Ulrich is FP Jones, Charles Melton is Reggie Mantle, and Vanessa Morgan plays Toni Topaz.
“Chapter Sixty-Six: Tangerine” Plot – THE SEARCH FOR FORSYTHE PENDLETON JONES I — After declaring war on Hiram (Consuelos), Veronica (Mendes) enlists a secret weapon against her father – her Abuelita (guest star Ana Mercedes). Archie (Apa) and FP (Ulrich) team up to take Dodger (guest star Juan Riedinger) down for good, while Betty (Reinhart) and Charles (guest star Wyatt Nash) investigate a series of strange attacks aimed at Betty.
Elsewhere, Jughead’s (Sprouse) search for his grandpa, Forsythe Pendleton Jones I (guest star Timothy Webber), leads to more questions than answers, while Cheryl (Petsch) finally makes peace with the past that’s been haunting her.
Warner Bros Pictures just delivered an early winter holiday treat to Wonder Woman fans. Still six months out from its theatrical release, we now have a slightly better idea what Wonder Woman 1984‘s all about via the first full official trailer.
