Crackle has confirmed Sean Bean (Game of Thrones) has joined the cast of The Oath, created and written by former Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Deputy Joe Halpin (Secrets and Lies). Sean Bean will be playing a character who lives long enough to be considered the star in Crackle’s new dramatic series set to begin shooting in July 2017 in Puerto Rico. The Oath is executive produced by Curtis ’50 Cent’ Jackson and the first episode will be directed by Jeff T. Thomas (Wayward Pines). Crackle’s targeting a 2018 premiere.

“It’s great to be working with director Jeff Thomas again and the story’s creator, Joe Halpin for Crackle. I’m really looking forward to exploring this fascinating story,” said Bean.

“Sean Bean is the perfect choice for the role of Tom Hammond,” stated Eric Berger, Crackle GM and EVP, Digital, Sony Pictures Television Networks. “He embodies the grit and intensity that drives this character throughout the series’ uncompromising and fast paced narrative. We are excited to have him anchor this incredible production from Joe Halpin and 50 Cent’s G-Unit division.”

The Plot: A gritty, action-packed drama, The Oath explores a world of gangs made up of those sworn to protect and defend and sheds light on corrupt and secret societies that are nearly impossible to join – only a select few make the cut-but once inside, members will do what they must to protect each other from enemies on the outside and from within their own ranks.

Tom Hammond, portrayed by Bean, is a hard-charging cop and ruthless leader of the prominent gang made up of those who are meant to enforce the law. After doing a deal with an undercover FBI agent, Hammond finds himself behind bars but after he’s released, his desire to make his way back to the top of the food chain and back in control of the gang he once led puts him head to head with those who used to have his back.

Pitting mech against mech and father against son, the epic showdown will test this fierce but undisciplined team of modern-day ninjas who must learn to check their egos and pull together to unleash their inner power of Spinjitzu.

Universal Pictures has debuted a new music video for Despicable Me 3 set to open in theaters on June 30, 2017. The new video’s for the song “There’s Something Special,” one of Pharrell Williams’ contributions to the soundtrack. The two-minute “There’s Something Special” video includes new scenes from the film along with Pharrell’s floating head, which isn’t nearly as bizarre as it sounds.

Despicable Me 3 was directed by Pierre Coffin and Kyle Balda, and co-directed by Eric Guillon. Cinco Paul and Ken Daurio wrote the script, with Illumination’s Chris Meledandri and Janet Healy producing and Chris Renaud executive producing.

Despicable Me 3 Track List:

1. Yellow Light – Pharrell Williams
2. Hug Me – Pharrell Williams feat. Trey Parker
3. Bad – Michael Jackson
4. Take On Me – a-ha
5. Papa Mama Loca Pipa – The Minions
6. There’s Something Special – Pharrell Williams
7. Tiki Babeloo – The Minions
8. Freedom – Pharrell Williams
9. Doowit – Pharrell Williams
10. 99 Luftballoons – Nena
11. Into The Groove – Madonna
12. Chuck Berry – Pharrell Williams
13. Fun, Fun, Fun – Pharrell Williams
14. Despicable Me – Pharrell Williams
15. Despicable Me 3 Score Suite – Heitor Pereira
16. Malatikalano Polatina – The Minions

The Plot: After he is fired from the Anti-Villain League for failing to take down the latest bad guy to threaten humanity, Gru finds himself in the midst of a major identity crisis. But when a mysterious stranger shows up to inform Gru that he has a long-lost twin brother—a brother who desperately wishes to follow in his twin’s despicable footsteps—one former super-villain will rediscover just how good it feels to be bad.

Steve Carell not only reprises his role as Gru, but also takes on a second part—that of Dru, Gru’s long-lost twin. Kristen Wiig returns as super-spy Lucy, while Emmy, Tony and Grammy Award winner Trey Parker voices new villain Balthazar Bratt, a former child star who has become obsessed with the evil TV character he played in the ’80s. Gru’s most formidable and comedic nemesis to date, Bratt is out to take down Hollywood…and anyone who stands in his way.





Box Office Report: ‘Cars 3’ Crashes ‘Wonder Woman’s Win Streak

Cars 3 snagged an ‘A’ score from ticket buyers, according to CinemaScore, but good reviews from audiences and critics weren’t enough to help the third film of the franchise match either Cars‘ $60 million or Cars 2‘s $66 million opening weekends. Its $53 million domestic opening was enough to push Wonder Woman into second, although Warner Bros Pictures has no reason to be disappointed in that superhero film’s performance. Wonder Woman only dropped 30% over its third weekend in release and has now rung up an impressive $275 million domestically.

Up next, Transformers: The Last Night will be hitting theaters on Wednesday and the critically acclaimed drama, The Beguiled, arrives on Friday, June 23, 2017.


Box Office Top 10: June 16-18, 2017

  1. Cars 3 – $53,547,000
  2. Wonder Woman – $40,775,000
  3. All Eyez on Me – $27,050,000
  4. The Mummy – $13,916,010
  5. 47 Meters Down – $11,500,000
