Sony Home Entertainment will be releasing UFO on video on September 4, 2018.

TLC’s introducing a few special twists to the upcoming new season of Four Weddings. Set to premiere on Saturday, July 21, 2018, Four Weddings will air in a new two-hour format. It will also feature four brides who are either close friends or family members rather than strangers.

“TLC is the premier destination and trusted source for all things wedding, and our passionate fans continue to say ‘I Do’ to our wedding content,” stated Howard Lee, President and General Manager of TLC. “We put this genre on the map with signature long-running franchises like Say Yes to the Dress and we are proud to bring back fan favorite Four Weddings, inviting audiences to fall in love all over again.”

The revival of the fan-favorite series will air on Saturdays at 9pm ET/PT. Viewers will have the opportunity to vote for their favorite brides during the premiere episode at Facebook.com/FourWeddings.

Details on Four Weddings: “In the series’ new two-hour format, these blushing brides, who are all getting married around the same time, will evaluate each other’s weddings based on six categories: venue, food, dress, entertainment, originality and overall experience. The bride with the highest score will win an all-expenses-paid honeymoon for herself and her husband.

With such a considerable prize on the line, the veils are coming off as the brides engage in some friendly competition and naturally try to one-up each other in their quest to nab the top prize. Fans will tag along with the brides as they plan and shop for every element of their weddings, including the dress, the cake, the decorations and more. From a countryside barn, to a winter wonderland extravaganza, to twists and turns never-before-seen on FOUR WEDDINGS, this season is full of hilarious, emotional and unforgettable moments that will captivate viewers through the last dance.

In the premiere episode, fans will be introduced to four St. Louis brides with strong family ties. Far from traditional, Maggie goes for an outdoor December wedding while her soon-to-be sister-in-law, Ashley, goes full-on glitz and wedding glam. Family friend Lexi is staking it all on her celebrity chef’s extravagant desserts and Cousin Kat believes it’s not a wedding until everyone is on the dance floor! These brides are always there for each other through thick and thin, but will their relationships remain intact after they go head-to-head to win a honeymoon to a surprise destination?”

AMC’s set to debut the new comedy/drama series Lodge 49 on August 6, 2018 at 10pm ET/PT. The series starring Wyatt Russell (Ingrid Goes West, Black Mirror) will have its season one premiere immediately following the season four premiere of the critically acclaimed Breaking Bad prequel, Better Call Saul.

Lodge 49 was created by Jim Gavin (author, Middle Men). Gavin wrote the 10 episode first season and executive produces along with Peter Ocko (Pushing Daisies), Paul Giamatti (Billions), Dan Carey (Outsiders), and Jeff Freilich (Halt and Catch Fire). Ocko also serves as the showrunner.

In support of the series’ premiere, AMC’s released photos from season one along with details on the cast and characters.

The Plot: Lodge 49 is a modern fable set in Long Beach and centered on Dud (Russell), a likable ex-surfer who attempts to maintain his positive outlook on life while still reeling from the death of his father, the collapse of the family business, and any semblance of the idyllic middle-class life he knew. Dud finds himself deposited by fate at the doorstep of Lodge 49, home to the Ancient and Benevolent Order of the Lynx, a dusty dying fraternal order. Dud finds solace in this dark, mysterious retreat, which offers cheap beer and strange alchemical philosophies. There he meets his mentor, Ernie Fontaine, a “Luminous Knight” of the Order, who sells plumbing supplies by day.

Despite the constant pushback from his more skeptical, pragmatic twin sister, Liz, Dud and Ernie find themselves drawn by the Lodge into some long-buried secrets and modern day conspiracies. Through his newfound connection with the Lodge, its mysteries and its people, Dud comes to find the missing sense of purpose in his life and confront his deepest fears and greatest hopes.

The Cast and Characters:

Sean ‘Dud’ Dudley (Wyatt Russell) – A disarmingly optimistic ex-surfer who has had a terrible year. Stumbling into Lodge 49, a dusty, dying fraternal order, Dud becomes convinced the Lodge will help him find the right path to recover the simple, happy life he’s lost.

Ernie Fontaine (Brent Jennings) – A Navy vet, plumbing supplies salesman, longtime bachelor, working-class Renaissance Man, and member of the Order of the Lynx, Lodge 49.

Liz Dudley (Sonya Cassidy) – Dud’s twin sister — smart, fiercely independent, deeply cynical, and searching for a way to escape her debt while working at a nightmare chain restaurant.

Connie Mills (Linda Emond) – An old-school journalist, a lover of words and smoke-filled taverns, she’s trying to hang on while the world changes around her. Connie has arrived at Lodge 49 thanks to her third husband, Scott Mills.

Blaise St. John (David Pasquesi) – The resident philosopher of the Lynx. He tends bar at Lodge 49 and runs his own pot dispensary.

Scott Mills (Eric Allen Kramer) – Long Beach Port Harbor Patrol officer and straight shooter, who enjoys his personal watercraft and playing drums in a surf-rock cover band.

July 3, 2018

Showtime’s moving forward on a new live-action series based on the Halo video game series. The network also confirmed the upcoming scripted drama is expected to begin production early next year.

Halo has Kyle Killen (Awake, Lone Star) attached as the season one showrunner. He’s also writing the 10 episode first season and will executive produce with Scott Pennington, Justin Falvey, and Darryl Frank. Rupert Wyatt, director of The Escapist and Rise of the Planet of the Apes, will direct some of season one’s episodes and will also serve as an executive producer.

The Halo series is an Amblin Television and Microsoft/343 Industries production.

“Halo is our most ambitious series ever, and we expect audiences who have been anticipating it for years to be thoroughly rewarded,” said David Nevins, President and CEO, Showtime Networks Inc. “In the history of television, there simply has never been enough great science fiction. Kyle Killen’s scripts are thrilling, expansive and provocative, Rupert Wyatt is a wonderful, world-building director, and their vision of Halo will enthrall fans of the game while also drawing the uninitiated into a world of complex characters that populate this unique universe.”

“As we think about what it means to bring videogame franchises to movie or TV – the biggest challenge can often be finding the right balance between moments fans have already experienced and moments that have yet to be experienced through a different medium, perspective, or creative lens,” stated Kiki Wolfkill, Head of Transmedia, 343 Industries. “We are excited to navigate these creative waters to bring you something that is both respectful of what you already know and love, but also new and surprising and enthralling.”

More on Halo, Courtesy of Showtime: “Halo reinvented how people think about video games and has grown into a global entertainment phenomenon, having sold more than 77 million copies worldwide and grossing more than $5 billion in sales. In its adaptation for Showtime, Halo will take place in the universe that first came to be in 2001, dramatizing an epic 26th-century conflict between humanity and an alien threat known as the Covenant. Halo will weave deeply drawn personal stories with action, adventure and a richly imagined vision of the future.”

Mila Kunis (A Bad Moms Christmas) and two-time Emmy Award winner Kate McKinnon (Saturday Night Live) hop in a cab and convince the driver to flee from men shooting at them in the new video clip from The Spy Who Dumped Me. The one-minute video featuring a wild chase scene was unveiled a month out from the film’s theatrical release.

Lionsgate is targeting an August 3, 2018 theatrical release.

The thriller Searching with John Cho and Debra Messing also will be opening in theaters on that date.

The Plot: The film tells the story of Audrey (Mila Kunis) and Morgan (Kate McKinnon), thirty-year-old best friends from Los Angeles, who are unexpectedly thrust into an international conspiracy when Audrey’s ex-boyfriend (Justin Theroux) shows up at her apartment with a team of deadly assassins on his trail. Much to their own surprise, the duo jump into action, and find themselves on the run in Europe from the assassins and a suspiciously charming British agent (Sam Heughan), as they hatch a plan to save the world.

The Season 5 Plot: Over the last four seasons The 100 have fought to survive against unimaginable odds, only to see the world end for a second time. Season five begins six years later, with our heroes still separated: Bellamy’s team in space, Clarke on the ground, and hundreds trapped in the bunker below. But when a massive prison ship descends upon the last survivable place on earth, The 100 must come together to reclaim their home.

As two armies converge on one valley, alliances will shift, friends will become foes, and the march to war threatens to destroy all that’s left of the human race. Can our heroes break the cycle, or is humanity doomed to repeat the past? In this epic battle for survival, one thing is certain: there are no good guys.
