Netflix has made it official. The spy drama The Recruit starring Noah Centineo has been renewed for a second season.
The renewal announcement arrived along with a short video confirming the popular series is targeting a 2024 premiere for season two. Season one debuted in December 2022 and was a fixture on the streaming service’s most popular chart for five weeks.
“I’m thrilled to dive back into the fun, funny, action-packed world of The Recruit. Seeing how invested our audience became in the show’s adventurous take on the spy world and Noah’s turn as Owen has been incredibly rewarding, and I can’t wait to turn it all up to ’11’ in Season Two,” stated creator, showrunner and executive producer Alexi Hawley.
Noah Centineo will reprise his role as Owen Hendricks. According to Netflix, the new season will pick up from last season’s cliffhanger ending that found Owen and Max captured with their lives endangered.
“I know I speak for our entire cast and executive team at eOne and Netflix when I say that we are thrilled to be returning to The Recruit for a second season. I’m looking forward to seeing what Alexi Hawley has in store for us all,” said star and executive producer Centineo.
The series centers around Owen Hendricks (Centineo), a young CIA lawyer whose first week on the job turns upside down when he discovers a threatening letter by former asset Max Meladze (Laura Haddock), who plans to expose the agency unless they exonerate her of a serious crime. Owen quickly becomes entangled in a dangerous and often absurd world of power politics and mischievous players as he travels the world in hopes of completing his assignment and making a mark at the CIA.
Season one also starred Fivel Stewart, Vondie Curtis Hall, Kristian Bruun, Aarti Mann, Colton Dunn, and Daniel Quincy Annoh.

The sale of media conglomerate Waystar Royco to tech visionary Lukas Matsson (Skarsgård) moves ever closer. The prospect of this seismic sale provokes existential angst and familial division among the Roys as they anticipate what their lives will look like once the deal is complete. A power struggle ensues as the family weighs up a future where their cultural and political weight is severely curtailed.”

Fantasy Island Description, Courtesy of Fox:
A modern drama series, Fantasy Island takes place at a luxury resort, where literally any fantasy requested by guests is fulfilled, although they rarely turn out as expected. Delving into the “what if” questions – both big and small – that keep us awake at night, each episode will tell emotional, provocative stories about people who arrive with dreams and desires and depart enlightened and transformed through the magical realism of Fantasy Island.
Serving as steward of this mysterious island is Elena Roarke (Sanchez), a descendant of the iconic Mr. Roarke. Elena set aside her own ambitions, and even the love of her life, to uphold her family’s legacy. Sophisticated, insightful, and always charming, her calm exterior masks the challenges of the responsibilities she has assumed. Assisting Elena is Ruby Akuda (Barnes), a young woman with an old soul who arrives on Fantasy Island with a terminal illness, and is given a new lease on life there; and pilot Javier (Rodriquez), who also is the head of island transportation and a jack of all trades.

Lisette Olivera, Zuri Reed, and Jordan Rodrigues in Disney+’s ‘National Treasure: Edge of History’ episode 8
With just two episodes left in season one of Disney+’s National Treasure: Edge of History, things are really heating up. Episode seven ended with Jess concluding she needs to break her father out of a prison in Mexico. Episode eight picks up with Jess’s dad, Rafael (Jacob Vargas), in for a shock when he sees Billie (Catherine Zeta-Jones) has come to visit him.
Billie accuses him of killing her brother and Rafael denies it, insisting it was Salazar who killed her brother. Billie demands the last relic or else she’s going after Jess. “You’re about to find out how it feels to lose the person you love more than anything else in the world,” warns Billie.
Oren (Antonio Cipriano) desperately tries to talk Jess (Lisette Olivera) out of breaking her father out of prison. When Oren asks for Ethan (Jordan Rodrigues) and Tasha (Zuri Reed) to back him up, they refuse. They are all in with Jess.
Oren’s shocked that he’s the one being the voice of reason, but Jess knows she must do this or Billie will kill her dad. Odd man out, Oren decides to return home.
Tasha and Jess go over the prison layout to prepare for the jailbreak. Before Oren leaves, he tosses them a helpful tidbit. Prisons have large drainage areas in case of flooding.
Meanwhile, Myles (Dustin Ingram) spills Billie’s secrets to Liam (Jake Austin Walker). He thinks they need to get one of Billie’s security team’s phones in order to have access to all the trackers Billie uses. That should help them locate Jess.
Rafael says a prayer to Jess’s late mother and vows to keep Jess safe. He’s interrupted when new shoes suddenly arrive that he ordered a while back.
Ethan and Jess have a heart-to-heart, and Ethan confesses he wishes that Jess would let him do the breaking-in. There will be fewer consequences if he gets caught. Their talk is interrupted when Tasha reveals she can hack the system to make it think there’s flooding going on. The system will react by lowering the water levels, giving Jess about 10 minutes to get in and get her dad out.
As the audience hears Tasha explain to Jess what she needs to do in order to get in and out of the prison, we see Jess doing all those things. Jess is in for a shock when she makes it to her dad’s cell only to find the door already open and her dad gone.
A guard comes in, and Jess hides in her dad’s bed. When the guard discovers her, Rafael jumps on his back and chokes him until he’s unconscious. Jess admits she’s there to break him out because Billie’s going to kill him. In turn, Rafael admits the cell door was open because he was going to break out and rescue her because Billie’s going to kill her.
Lisette Olivera and Jacob Vargas in Disney+’s ‘National Treasure: Edge of History’ episode 8
Time for a new plan because Jess’s original escape route is filling up with water. Rafael knows of a way out.
The police find Tasha and Ethan and want to see their IDs.
After making it outside, Rafael informs Jess that he’s tried to escape many times but never made it past this part because it takes two people. He’s going to try to hinder the guard’s vision in the towers with a mirror while she runs to cut the fence. Hopefully, she won’t get shot at.
Tasha and Ethan are told to move along because it’s a restricted area. At the same moment, the guard that Rafael choked is waking up. When the alarm starts going off, Jess makes a run for it. The rest of the scene plays out in slow motion as Jess gets shot at, but the bullets miss. The guard then turns his gun on Rafael which causes him to drop his mirror.
It appears Rafael has accepted his fate and waits for the final bullet to take his life. But suddenly someone shoots the guard instead, and Jess and her father make it out of the prison and into the van.
Oren has made it home and is talking to himself, wondering if his friends are safe, when Agent Ross (Lyndon Smith) arrives unannounced. She welcomes herself in and wants to know safe from what. He lies and says he doesn’t know where his friends are, and Agent Ross goes over everything that has transpired since Jess and Tasha showed up and claimed he was kidnapped. Oren refuses to give her any information.
Myles informs Dario (Darri Ingolfsson) that Liam isn’t dead and he didn’t call a clean-up crew because he figured he would want to question him. Liam pretends to be tied up and Myles quickly injects Dario with something that knocks him out. The clock is ticking because Dario brought a friend.
Myles unlocks Dario’s phone and Liam sees a phrase on it that sounds familiar. As Myles looks for the tracking information, Liam grabs a book his grandpa left for him with the same phrase written on it. When he opens the book it reads: “The Book of Famous Lost Treasure.”
Agent Ross speaks with her boss, Agent Hendricks (Armando Riesco), about the information she has on Jess, even though she’s having doubts about Jess being Peter Sadusky’s killer. Hendricks starts the paperwork to extradite Jess and suggests Ross should stop second-guessing herself.
Jess says goodbye to Tasha and Ethan because they need to get home right away. Rafael swears he’ll be able to get Jess across the border.
Liam can’t find tracking on Jess but does spot a familiar name – his dad, Jack. Billie has apparently been tracking him for years, and the last day he was alive that tracker places him nowhere near the river where he supposedly drowned.
Kacey (Breeda Wool) is on the tracking system and notices Dario is on it too, and that he’s in the Sadusky file. Billie calls Dario’s phone, and out of anger, Liam answers it. Liam confronts her about killing his grandpa and accuses her of killing his dad too. Liam warns her he’s going to come after her.
Billie knows Myles is helping Liam now, and Myles smashes the phone in a panic.
Dario’s friend enters the house and Liam and Myles lock him and Dario up in the secret room. Unfortunately, the friend gets off a shot that hits Myles. The cleaning crew shows up, and Liam is forced to flee, leaving a dead Myles behind… but not before grabbing that book.
Rafael began keeping a journal after he met Jess’s mom, and he’s hidden it in an old tree. He explains he went to her mother to get information on Malinche. He also reveals his mother was a Daughter of the Plumed Serpent and gave him the necklace that Jess wears.
Tasha and Ethan make it across the border and are met by the FBI.
Oren returns home to a waiting Liam who demands to know where Jess is.
Jess shows her dad the map from the relics. She thinks X marks the spot in the map, but he says X is a Mayan symbol for the sky. Jess realizes it’s a map of the sky and the Daughters of the Plumed Serpent are showing the location of the treasure with the constellations. The river is the Milky Way, and the dots are the stars.
One star in particular called “God of the Morning Star” was essential for the Daughters of the Plumed Serpent to navigate. After using an app, Jess figures out it’s pointing to a spot near the Mississippi River called Devil’s Swamp.
The long-haired, bearded man shows up and claims he doesn’t work for Salazar. He throws Jess and Rafael for a loop when he says Salazar isn’t one man; it is a mantle. He clears up that head-scratching announcement by explaining a “Salazar” is always the leader of a group of treasure hunters dating back to ancient Egypt.
Just then Kacey comes zooming up in a vehicle and shoots the bearded man. Jess manages to escape, but Billie grabs her dad. Billie attempts to lure Jess out by telling her she helped them escape. She paid off the guards, put a tracker in her dad’s shoe, and Kacey shot the sniper guard. She claims she heard everything and is always one step ahead of them.
Jess not only gives herself up to Billie, but she also hands over the backpack. And with that episode eight draws to a close.
Rachel Bilson, Jack Davenport, and Reid Miller star in season one episode three of Fox’s new anthology series, Accused. Episode three, “Danny’s Story,” will air on Tuesday, January 31, 2023 at 9pm ET/PT.
Episode three also stars August Maturo, Andi Hubick, Michelle Giroux, Camille James, and Neil Whitely. Jon Mostow (Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines) directed from a script by Howard Gordon and Daniel Pearle.
“Danny’s Story” Plot: After the death of his ailing mother, a teenager suspects foul play when he discovers his mother’s former hospice caretaker is now dating his father.
Accused is a collection of 15 intense, topical, and exquisitely human stories of crime and punishment. Each episode is a fast-paced provocative thriller exploring a different crime, in a different city, with an entirely original cast. Based on the BBC’s BAFTA-winning crime anthology, each episode opens in a courtroom on the defendant, with viewers knowing nothing about their crime or how they ended up on trial.
Told from the defendant’s point of view through flashbacks, the show holds a mirror up to current times with evocative and emotional stories. In the end, audiences will discover how an ordinary person gets caught up in extraordinary circumstances and how one impulsive decision can impact the course of that life – and the lives of others — forever.

Theater Camp comes with the audience advisory that it contains strobe effects and may potentially trigger seizures. And in a unique twist, this humorous mockumentary from first-time feature film directors Molly Gordon and Nick Lieberman incorporates that warning into the plot.
AdirondACTS theater camp founder Joan (Amy Sedaris) suffers a seizure from the strobe light in the camp’s production of Bye Bye Birdie. Joan lapses into a coma at the worst possible time for the struggling upstate New York theater camp. It’s also horrible timing for the documentary crew since Joan was supposed to be the focus of the film and her coma occurs on the first day of shooting.
Money is a major issue, and after Joan is forced to make an unexpected exit from camp, her son, Troy (Jimmy Tatro), is put in charge. Troy believes he’s a big-time social media influencer/crypto bro. Point of fact: he’s neither. He’s also not into acting and doesn’t know his Les Mis from Cats.
Troy’s met with derision by the camp’s staff, who haven’t the time or patience for a theater neophyte. It doesn’t help that he’s constantly filming himself for his online fans (all tens of them).
The staff consists of an eclectic assortment of theater wannabes with minor claims to fame. (Or at least brushes with those who are famous.) Standouts among the flashy ensemble of staffers are Amos (Ben Platt), the head of drama, and Rebecca-Diane (Molly Gordon), the head of music. Julliard failures, these longtime best friends/codependent collaborators are responsible for the camp’s annual original play. This year, the obvious choice is to write about their fearless—albeit currently unconscious-leader, Joan. Its title: “Still, Joan.” (Gotta love that tip of the hat to Still Alice.)
Hopefully, Joan will survive to witness its performance. And, hopefully, the camp won’t fall into foreclosure before the play’s opening night. If they can just pull off this one big production, then maybe they can save AdirondACTS. (Why am I saying that out loud as I type? If there isn’t a real AdirondACTS, someone should jump on that name ASAP.)
Theater Camp is an expanded version of Molly Gordon, Nick Lieberman, Noah Galvin, and Ben Platt’s 18-minute short film that went viral thanks to the love showered upon it by theater geeks during the pandemic. The foursome proved quite adept at mocking a world they know well. That successful short spawned this mockumentary feature, your enjoyment of which will depend on your tolerance level for precocious kids and scenery-chewing, cliché-spewing adults.
There are moments of absolute hilarity mixed with bits that feel a bit long in the tooth. Troy has the kids work as waiters by convincing them they’re participating in an immersive theater exercise, and the campers’ interactions with a group of businessmen nails the whole musical theater-kid vibe. Rebecca-Diane believes she’s a spiritualist who can channel Joan and can discern who her students were in past lives. Again, absolutely nails it.
But sometimes the jokes feel a little recycled or the delivery is just a tad off. And even at a relatively short 94 minutes, it’s tough not to want to tune out before the time the big finale arrives. But stick it out until the third act; the payoff is well worth it.
Theater Camp lands the final act. Not only does it lands it, but exceeds all expectations. The first two acts elicited a handful of laughs. The third act sweeps in and blows the roof off the joint with the play within the film. Joan’s life story is told via witty lyrics and catchy tunes, culminating in the final showstopping number in which everyone celebrates camp life.
Any bumps in the road or missed opportunities leading up to the third act are forgiven once “Still, Joan” takes center stage.
