That hair, those clothes…there’s no mistaking what decade American Hustle is set in – it has to be the ’70s. Directed by David O. Russell, American Hustle reunites Russell’s Silver Linings Playbook stars Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence and his The Fighter stars Christian Bale and Amy Adams for a movie about the Abscam scandal.
 
The Plot:
 
A fictional film set in the alluring world of one of the most stunning scandals to rock our nation, American Hustle tells the story of brilliant con man Irving Rosenfeld (Christian Bale), who along with his equally cunning and seductive British partner Sydney Prosser (Amy Adams) is forced to work for a wild FBI agent Richie DiMaso (Bradley Cooper). DiMaso pushes them into a world of Jersey powerbrokers and mafia that’s as dangerous as it is enchanting. Jeremy Renner is Carmine Polito, the passionate, volatile, New Jersey political operator caught between the con-artists and Feds. Irving’s unpredictable wife Rosalyn (Jennifer Lawrence) could be the one to pull the thread that brings the entire world crashing down.

Benedict Cumberbatch as WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange confronts David Thewlis as journalist Nick Davies in this clip from The Fifth Estate hitting theaters on October 18, 2013. Directed by Bill Condon (Dreamgirls), the cast of this dramatic thriller based on true events also features Daniel Bruhl, Anthony Mackie, Alicia Vikander, Peter Capaldi, Carice van Houten, Dan Stevens, Stanley Tucci, and Laura Linney.

The Plot:

Triggering our age of high-stakes secrecy, explosive news leaks and the trafficking of classified information, WikiLeaks forever changed the game. Now, in a dramatic thriller based on real events, The Fifth Estate reveals the quest to expose the deceptions and corruptions of power that turned an Internet upstart into the 21st century’s most fiercely debated organization. The story begins as WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange (Cumberbatch) and his colleague Daniel Domscheit-Berg (Brühl) team up to become underground watchdogs of the privileged and powerful.

On a shoestring, they create a platform that allows whistleblowers to anonymously leak covert data, shining a light on the dark recesses of government secrets and corporate crimes. Soon, they are breaking more hard news than the world’s most legendary media organizations combined. But when Assange and Berg gain access to the biggest trove of confidential intelligence documents in U.S. history, they battle each other and a defining question of our time: what are the costs of keeping secrets in a free society—and what are the costs of exposing them?”

Well that didn’t take long, did it? CBS has pulled the comedy series We Are Men starring Jerry O’Connell, Kal Penn, and Tony Shalhoub off of their primetime schedule.

Monday nights haven’t exactly been a ratings bonanza for CBS this season, but the network’s hoping to right the ship by canceling the scheduled episodes of We Are Men after just two weeks on air. CBS issued this update as to what viewers can expect on Monday nights beginning next week:

“Effective Oct. 14, 2 Broke Girls moves to 8:30 PM, replacing We Are Men, which is no longer on the schedule. Rebroadcasts of The Big Bang Theory will air at 9:00 PM for the next two weeks. Mike & Molly returns to the schedule with its fourth season premiere, Monday, Nov. 4 (9:00-9:30 PM, ET/PT).”

There’s no word yet on the fate of the floundering 10pm drama, Hostages, starring Dylan McDermott and Toni Collette.

We Are Men is the second new series to get yanked after just a few episodes, following in the footsteps of ABC’s Lucky 7.

AnnaLynne McCord has been tapped to play a ranch hand on the upcoming season of TNT’s Dallas. McCord will handle a multiple-episode arc as Heather, a 20-something woman with a five-year-old son and a troubled ex-husband.

TNT offered a few more details on McCord’s character: “Having grown up in a house with four brothers, Heather is quite capable of handling herself around the Southfork ranch hands, but when her ex-husband returns, bringing turmoil back into her life, Christopher (played by Jesse Metcalfe) steps in, helping Heather resolve the conflict, and the two become involved in a romantic relationship.”

The series is currently in production in Dallas on season three, which will premiere this winter. Last season, the show averaged 3.8 million viewers.

Dallas, based on the classic TV series created by David Jacobs, stars Patrick Duffy, Linda Gray, Josh Henderson, Jordana Brewster, Julie Gonzalo, Ken Kercheval, Brenda Strong, Mitch Pileggi, Emma Bell, and Kuno Becker. And Judith Light will be guest starring this season.

USA Sets Up Three New Drama Pilots

USA NetworkComplications, Rush, and The Novice have all been given cast-contingent pilots by USA Network, so says network president Chris McCumber. “These pilots illustrate our continued commitment to creating the next evolution of powerful original dramas for which USA is well known,” stated McCumber. “This particular mix of dramas comes from some of the top writers and producers in the industry, each of whom bring a distinct point of view and unique talent for developing high stakes storylines and compelling characters.”
 
The Details, Courtesy of USA Network:

COMPLICATIONS (working title) — After wrapping seven seasons of the popular series BURN NOTICE, Matt Nix brings his next offering to the network with this gritty medical drama. The project centers around John Ellis, a disillusioned suburban ER doctor, who finds his existence transformed when he intervenes in a drive-by shooting, saving a young boy’s life and killing one of his attackers. When he learns the boy is still marked for death he finds himself compelled to save him at any cost and discovers that his life and his outlook on medicine may never be the same.
 
NOVICE (working title) — It’s no secret that today’s college graduates face the most difficult job market ever. The drama NOVICE takes the audience on the journey of a young man who finds that his true calling may be a life of crime. After repeatedly trying to break into corporate America, Kyle Jones returns home to his economically struggling family and his high school restaurant job, but minimum wage isn’t going to help with his family’s debt. So, while it is out of necessity that he seizes an unexpected opportunity to make money with a Korean crime family, it appears that this new life may have its perks as well. NOVICE is written by Joe and Tony Gayton, the creators of Hell on Wheels.
 
RUSH (working title) — Writer/director Levine (Warm Bodies, The Wackness) along with Fox 21 and Little Engine’s Gina Matthews and Grant Scharbo (The Gates, Popular) is the team behind the fast paced Hollywood drama, RUSH. Dr. William Rush is not your average on-call doctor — he’s not attached to any hospital, he’s highly discreet no matter what the ailment as long as the client can pay his cash-only premium and the doctor can party with the best of them. He has no desire to change his life or how he lives it, until an old flame and his conscience begin to stir things up.

Taylor Swift is about to break a record. The singer/songwriter will pick up the 2013 Songwriter/Artist of the Year award from the Nashville Songwriters Association International on October 13, 2013 and as the recipient of this year’s honor, she will become the artist with the most wins with six in this category. That tops five-time winners Vince Gill and Alan Jackson.
 
Swift also holds the record as the youngest artist ever to be named Songwriter/Artist of the Year.
 
According to Swift’s label, Big Machine Records, the songwriter award is given out on an annual basis to the “most prolific and productive Nashville writers who achieved Top 30 singles during the past year.” Taylor’s most recent album, Red, has sold over 6 million copies and she’s had 14 Top 30 songs between July 2012 and June 2013.
 
In addition to picking up her Songwriter/Artist of the Year award, this weekend Swift will also be opening the Taylor Swift Education Center at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. The education center was made possible by the largest individual donation to the Hall of Fame in history: Taylor Swift gifted $4 million to the Country Music All of Fame and Museum’s educational program.
 
Per the official announcement: “The Taylor Swift Education Center, which will encompass parts of two floors and feature three classrooms, a learning lab and a state-of-the-art children’s exhibit gallery, will increase the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum’s educational capacity up to seven-fold (the museum previously had one classroom). The classroom spaces will be adjacent to a visible design studio; this space will feature thematic displays, e.g. dozens of instruments, and allow students to observe museum curators at work. The children’s gallery, situated on the second floor, will be a dedicated exhibit space for young patrons and will be filled with hands-on, interactive exhibits. The center will open officially on October 12(th) (classrooms and learning lab will open on that date; gallery space will open in March, 2014).”
