It looks like Fox’s 9-1-1 fans are about to get an episode focusing on Athena and Bobby with season six episode three. Hopefully, the episode will also devote a little time to revealing Hen’s decision about which career path to follow. “The Devil You Know” will air on Monday, October 3, 2022 at 8pm ET/PT.
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Aisha Hinds talked about Hen’s predicament. “This episode puts Hen in a position where she’s forced to grapple with questions that don’t always come with an index card that has the answer on it. She has to ask herself, ‘Am I going to try again? Am I going to stay with the department? Am I gonna make decisions that are better for me and my family, and me being present with them?’ These are big questions and big choices that she’s gonna have to make. But it also challenges what she has always dreamed about, which is becoming a doctor. So she’s going to be making some big decisions,” said Hinds.
The cast is led by Angela Bassett as Athena Grant and Peter Krause as Bobby Nash. Ryan Guzman plays Eddie Diaz, Aisha Hinds stars as Henrietta ‘Hen’ Wilson, Oliver Stark is Evan ‘Buck’ Buckley, Kenneth Choi is Howie ‘Chimney’ Han, and Jennifer Love Hewitt is Maddie Buckley.
“The Devil You Know” Plot: While in Florida caring for her ailing father, Athena and Bobby investigate the disappearance of her childhood friend from 45 years ago.
Creators Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk and Tim Minear reimagine the procedural drama with 9-1-1, exploring the high-pressure experiences of police officers, firefighters and dispatchers who are thrust into the most frightening, shocking and heart-stopping situations. These emergency responders must try to balance saving those who are at their most vulnerable with solving the problems in their own lives.
The CW’s dipping back into the world of Supernatural with The Winchesters, a prequel to the popular drama that had an impressive 15 season run. The Winchesters delves into the backstories of John and Mary Winchester, played by Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Samantha Smith in Supernatural. Season one episode one premieres on October 11, 2022 at 8pm ET/PT and introduces the younger versions of John and Mary, played by Drake Rodger and Meg Donnelly.
The season one cast also includes Supernatural‘s Jensen Ackles reprising his role as Dean to narrate the prequel. Nida Khurshid plays Latika, Jonathan “Jojo” Fleites is Carlos, Demetria McKinney stars as Ada, and Bianca Kajlich is John’s mom, Millie.
Glen Winter directed the first episode from a script by Robbie Thompson. Executive producers include Thompson, Ackles, Danneel Ackles, David H. Goodman, and McG.
The Series Premiere Plot: Before Sam and Dean, there were their parents, John and Mary. Told from the perspective of narrator Dean Winchester (Ackles), The Winchesters is the epic, untold love story of how John Winchester (Rodger) met Mary Campbell (Donnelly) and put it all on the line to not only save their love, but the entire world. When John returns home from fighting in Vietnam, a mysterious encounter sparks a new mission to trace his father’s past.
In his journey, he crosses paths with 19-year-old demon hunter Mary, who is also searching for answers after the disappearance of her own father. Together, the two join forces with young hunter-in-training Latika (Khurshid) and easygoing hunter Carlos (Fleites) to uncover the hidden truths about both their families. Their investigation leads them to a rare book emporium, whose owner Ada (McKinney) takes an interest to the occult and could provide the missing pieces to their puzzle.
But secrets run deep for both the Winchesters and Campbells, and despite the best efforts of John’s mother Millie (Kajlich) to protect her son from pursuing a dangerous life of demon hunting, John and Mary are both determined to work together to uphold their families’ legacies while beginning to form a family of their own.
Focus Features’ fascinating new trailer for TÁR feels like an “For Your Consideration” reel promoting two-time Oscar winner Cate Blanchett for Best Actress. Blanchett’s sure to be busy this upcoming awards season; she’s already earned the Best Actress award at the 2022 Venice Film Festival for her performance as composer/conductor Lydia Tár.
Three-time Oscar nominee Todd Field (In the Bedroom, Little Children) wrote and directed the drama which currently sits at 97% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes following its festival run. RogerEbert.com’s Tomris Laffly calls it “a film of rare elegance and sophistication,” and Entertainment Weekly’s Leah Greenblatt describes Blanchett’s work as feeling “less like a performance than a full-body possession.”
The cast also includes Noémie Merlant, Nina Hoss, Sophie Kauer, Julian Glover, Allan Corduner, and Mark Strong. Todd Field, Alexandra Milchan, and Scott Lambert served as producers.
TAR opens in select theaters on October 7, 2022 followed by a nationwide release on October 28th.
The Plot: From writer-producer-director Todd Field comes TÁR, starring Cate Blanchett as Lydia Tár, the groundbreaking conductor of a major German Orchestra. We meet Tár at the height of her career, as she’s preparing both a book launch and much-anticipated live performance of Mahler’s Fifth Symphony. Over the ensuing weeks her life begins to unravel in a singularly modern way. The result is a searing examination of power and its impact and durability in today’s society.

The Plot, Courtesy of Starz:
Dangerous Liaisons is a bold prelude of Laclos’ classic 18th-century novel focusing on the origin story of how his iconic characters, the Marquise de Merteuil and the Vicomte de Valmont, met as passionate young lovers in Paris on the eve of the revolution. This modern take on a classic story takes audiences through wonder and terror, beauty and degradation, seduction and deception in pre-revolutionary Paris.
Driven to right the wrongs of their past, the young couple’s survival depends on their skills of seduction and manipulation of not only the French nobility but of each other. Alice Englert and Nicholas Denton portray the notorious lovers: Camille who is taken in by the current Marquise de Merteuil (played by Lesley Manville) navigates her own path in a world of men, using the power of secrets to take back control, and Valmont who will stop at nothing to regain his title that was recently taken from him. Their on-again-off-again love story is the heart of the series. It’s not love… it’s war.
Netflix has shared the first photos along with a few more details on The Recruit, a spy series created by Alexi Hawley (Castle, The Rookie). The photos provide our first good look at Noah Centineo (To All the Boys franchise) as a CIA newbie who’s forced to hit the ground running.
“My new show follows an unsuspecting lawyer as he’s pulled into a high stakes thrill ride through the world of international spy networks,” explained Centineo during Netflix’s Tudum fan event. Joining Centineo in the series are Laura Haddock, Aarti Mann, Colton Dunn, Fivel Stewart, and Daniel Quincy Annoh. Kristian Bruun, Vondie Curtis Hall, Byron Mann, Angel Parker, and Kaylah Zander also star in the eight-episode first season.
“It’s rare to find a fresh way into a story these days. And the spy genre is no different. From Jason Bourne to James Bond, the spy world is always seen through the eyes of a veteran operative who’s invariably the smartest (and toughest) guy in the room. But The Recruit enters the world of espionage through fresh eyes — Owen Hendricks — a twenty-four-year-old, fresh out of law school, who doesn’t even have time to figure out where the bathrooms are before he’s pulled into a high-stakes case,” explained creator, showrunner, and executive producer Hawley. “None of us can realistically dream of being James Bond, but all of us have had a first job — with co-workers we can’t trust, and agendas we don’t understand. Only at the CIA, those hidden agendas can get you killed.”
Netflix has set a Friday, December 16, 2022 premiere date.
Series star Noah Centineo, Doug Liman, Gene Klein, David Bartis and Adam Ciralsky executive produce. Liman, Alex Kalymnios, Emmanuel Osei-Kuffour Jr., and Julian Holmes direct, and Hawley, George Ghanem, Amelia Roper, Hadi Deeb, Niceole Levy, and Maya Goldsmith served as writers.
Netflix released the following description of season one:
The Recruit 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 (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.

FBI: International Series Description, Courtesy of CBS:
FBI: International is the third iteration of the successful FBI brand that follows the elite operatives of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s International Fly Team. Headquartered in Budapest, they travel throughout Europe with the mission of tracking and neutralizing threats against American citizens wherever they may be, putting their lives on the line to protect the U.S. and its people. The Fly Team’s Special Agent Scott Forrester, their accomplished and dedicated leader, puts his missions ahead of his personal life and is often accompanied by his trusty Schutzhund dog, Tank.
Second in command is Special Agent Jamie Kellett, a heroic and fearless investigator – and her extensive network of informants is a powerful resource. Special Agent Andre Raines shines in the field and makes good use of his accounting background in tracking criminal enterprises’ moving money; and Special Agent Cameron Vo, a competitive West Point grad who excels at interrogation and strategy. Newly embedded with the Fly Team is Megan “Smitty” Garretson, a streetwise Europol agent with an extensive undercover background who liaises with each host country they inhabit.
Ana de Armas met writer/director Andrew Dominik (Killing Them Softly, Chopper) 11 years into his quest to make Blonde. “That was about three years ago…maybe more…and he sent me the script. I met with him and we had our first chat about it. Immediately I could tell how passionate he was about the story and why it was so important for him to do it the way he did – and to push for his vision,” explained de Armas during the Critics Choice Association press conference hosted by Netflix.
Ana de Armas delivers a compelling performance as classic movie star Marilyn Monroe in the film adaptation of Joyce Carol Oates’ bestselling novel, published in 1999. De Armas had never read anything like Dominik’s script, and she was blown away that she even had the opportunity to audition to play the Hollywood legend.
Before taking on the role, the Knives Out star didn’t know much about Marilyn. De Armas thought Monroe was a good actress and enjoyed her films, but she knew nothing about her personal life.
“I knew Marilyn – I knew the character on the screen. I knew her movies, but I didn’t really know much about her life. Andrew created this photographic bible with over 700 pictures, and you could see the movie throughout all of those images,” said de Armas.
“Getting to know her, I just feel a lot of empathy for her and definitely more respect. I feel closer to her, and it is impossible not to – even after doing the film – not feel protective of her. I’m just happy that I got to know how hard she tried and how brave she was and how strong,” said de Armas, adding, “I saw performances in movies that I was like, ‘This is freaking genius the way she does it. She’s so good.’”
YouTube videos, interviews, books, and rare footage provided de Armas with a peek at Monroe’s life off-screen. “Andrew wanted to pour those 11 years into my head fairly quickly, and it was just a lot to learn and to process. There’s so much information about her, so many things. It was pretty exciting. It was a very extensive, immersive process of just discovering not just her movies and her work, it was more about also trying to figure out who the woman underneath the character was. That was my main focus,” offered de Armas.
Ana de Armas confessed that at the beginning stages of approaching the project, she wondered what she could possibly have in common with Marilyn Monroe. “But then the more I learned about her, I realized I kind of felt even closer to her than I could ever imagine. I think that her personal journey, even though I didn’t have a childhood like her or go through a lot of her horrible, traumatic experiences, as a woman I just could feel her. I could see what her pain and her struggles were,” explained de Armas.
She added: “Just understanding the beginning of her life and how that will mark and set the way you see life from then on, carrying all that guilt and suffering with you…the duality between your private self and your public self and how do you deal with that, with the industry and what people project on you, and what the demand is, and you’re supposed to deliver that. Someone who was trying forever to be considered a serious actress and to be taken seriously and the level that she clearly, in my opinion, was prepared to deliver way better performances had she had the chance. So, all those things for me were very relatable. I just found it also fascinating that despite all of that, she kept shining and pushing through.”
Becoming Blonde’s Marilyn Monroe meant spending hours in hair and makeup. Writer/director Dominik’s advice was not to apply Marilyn’s makeup on Ana but to make Ana look like Marilyn. The makeup process took about three hours each day, starting at 4:30am.
“One of them would just hold my head as I was sleeping so most of the makeup was with my eyes closed,” recalled de Armas, laughing. “It was beautiful. Every day felt like a huge achievement if we got the look right – with so many iconic looks and also taking that down to find the more natural Norma Jeane look but still looking like her.”
“It was very challenging every day, but it was beautiful,” said de Armas. “It was so emotional every time. I had the best team with me.”
Asked what it was like wearing recreations of Marilyn’s famous outfits, de Armas replied, “I’ve never had more wardrobe fittings than in this movie. I think we did over 100 wardrobe changes in the film. What was amazing about Jennifer (Johnson, the costume designer) is we built that together. It wasn’t like she was giving me these clothes like, ‘This is a hangar, and this is what you’re putting on just because it’s the exact replica of what she was wearing.’ She wasn’t imposing something just because it was exactly the same. We built it together to something that felt more natural to me.”
“We did little tricks here and there to just find the shape of her body,” explained de Armas. “There were these little things underneath the clothes that looked like nothing but at the end, they really created that illusion of her body.”
“And these incredible dresses that we recreated also. They made exact replicas of ‘Diamonds are a Girls Best Friend’ – the pink dress – to The Seven Year Itch white dress – that was a very difficult dress to make and it was just so perfect. It is something that, you know, in the mornings I would have my two and a half, three-hour makeup process then I would go to another 20 minutes in wardrobe, and then I would do another 20 minutes of vocal warming and all of that, and then you realize that it’s not just the voice that needs warming. I wasn’t just warming up for the voice. It was all a process of I couldn’t be in character without one of [those elements]. They all had to be in conjunction, and I had to have them all with me.
And when you step in this wardrobe and you’re wearing the clothes and the shoes and everything, it just feels like you’re in it. It’s so important to feel comfortable and to feel real, like you’re being this person. I love that part of the creation of the character,” said de Armas.
Ana de Armas actually started working on the voice while she filming Knives Out, which was about nine months out from shooting Blonde.
“It was probably the most complex part of the transformation for me, just because English is not my first language, to begin with. The accent, the period, Marilyn’s affectations – she also changed her accent many times. She had personal coaches for her own insecurities, and she had coaches for movies. You can see her accent changing from one movie to the other one,” said de Armas. “All of that was important for me to learn and to capture because she has a very specific quality in her voice.
But at the same time, the movie wasn’t about Marilyn. We are familiar, for the most part, with the onscreen voice, which is part of that character, but the movie’s about Norma Jeane. So, to have just imitated that would have been very restrictive for me and I would have just done that – Marilyn’s voice. So, the imitation part of it, or just like nailing the accent outside the recreations was not very interesting. It didn’t feel authentic, emotionally speaking. For me, it was more important to find that emotional truth and move people than just copying the voice.”
There wasn’t any specific performance of Marilyn’s that Ana de Armas pulled from. Instead, she did a deep dive into all her films, specifically concentrating on any that they were going to recreate for the film.
“We didn’t have time for rehearsals. I think the only thing that we rehearsed was for two days the ‘Diamonds’ scene, and that’s because it was a choreography that I had to learn. But everything else was just pretty much by myself, just watching over and over and over again, like hundreds of times,” said de Armas. “Just doing the observation work just to get her…she was so expressive. Her face would just do crazy things all the time. So, it was not just one thing; it was a lot.”
The film was shot on location around Los Angeles and even at Marilyn’s real home. Asked if she could feel Marilyn’s presence, de Armas replied, “I was discovering that the places that we were filming were the actual places. Like the apartment with mother, her house, the car I was driving – she drove that car. We were chasing her and these places where she had been. I mean, she’s all over LA.
The other day after the premiere we went to Musso & Frank and they have a table where she used to sit. LA is full of these things and everyone has a story about her. Every corner has a little piece of her. But it was very moving. It was very emotional to be in these places recreating these scenes.
I do think that when you’re living an experience like this and you’re so in it, and you’re giving so much of yourself and you’re so open and embracing all these feelings, there is no way you can not feel something else. I do think that I felt something, a bigger energy, something different. It was very strong and it was really powerful. It was beautiful.”
