FX officially announced Mayans M.C. will return for a fourth season. The announcement came with just two episodes left to air in season three of the Sons of Anarchy spinoff.

Season four is expected to air in 2022.

“I am deeply indebted to everyone at FX and 20th for allowing us to continue to tell the stories of the characters that Kurt (Sutter) and I created and whom our cast and crew took to new heights in season 3,” said co-creator and executive producer Elgin James. “In season 4 we look forward to diving deeper into each character’s truths, exploring the danger of the combustible world they inhabit, and for each writer, cast member and crew to stake out our place as storytellers.”

The cast of season three includes JD Pardo, Clayton Cardenas, Carla Baratta, Danny Pino, and Michael Irby. Raoul Max Trujillo, Richard Cabral, Emilio Rivera, Sarah Bolger, and Sulem Calderon also star in the current crazy season.

“Elgin James, his creative collaborators, this incredible cast and crew delivered on another epic season of Mayans M.C.,” said Nick Grad, President, Original Programming, FX Entertainment. “Through three seasons, Mayans has told stories that resonate well beyond the border where the club thrives and survives, inviting fans inside their world and giving them a seat at the table.”

The Season 3 Plot, Courtesy of FX:

Mayans M.C. follows the life of Ezekiel “EZ” Reyes (Pardo), a newly patched member of the Mayans M.C. charter on the Cali/Mexi border. Once the golden boy with the American Dream in his grasp, EZ and his brother Angel (Cardenas) are closer than ever after uncovering the truth behind their mother’s murder while their father Felipe (Olmos) struggles to reconcile the choices he and his sons have made.

After U.S. Assistant District Attorney Lincoln Potter (Ray McKinnon) threatens to deport Felipe, EZ and Angel chose to leverage incriminating information to protect him rather than to free rebel leader Adelita (Baratta) from federal custody, leaving her to give birth to Angel’s son while in handcuffs. Meanwhile, Miguel Galindo (Pino) is left reeling over the loss of his mother to an apparent suicide, while others quietly suspect foul play.

Additionally, the Mayans seek vengeance on their rivals, the Tijuana M.C. Vatos Malditos, after a surprise attack on their club. When the smoke clears, they discover the body of a Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle Club Redwood Original – there will be hell to pay.

Mr. Corman Star Joseph Gordon-Levitt — Joseph Gordon-Levitt stars in Apple TV+’s ‘Mr. Corman’

Emmy Award winner Joseph Gordon-Levitt dropped the first photo from his upcoming comedy series Mr. Corman in honor of Teacher Appreciation Week. Gordon-Levitt returns to live-action series television with a starring role in the Apple Original series he created, directs, and executive produces.

The 10 episode first season is set to premiere on Friday, August 6, 2021 on Apple TV+. The first three episodes will arrive on August 6th, with new episodes releasing on subsequent Fridays.

Produced by A24, Mr. Corman also stars Arturo Castro, Debra Winger, Bobby Hall aka Logic, Alexander Jo, Juno Temple, Jamie Chung, Shannon Woodward, and Hector Hernandez. Bruce Eric Kaplan, Ravi Nandan, and Inman Young executive produce, with Pamela Harvey-White serving as a producer.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s television credits include a starring role in the critically acclaimed half-hour comedy 3rd Rock from the Sun which aired for six seasons. 3rd Rock won Emmys, a Golden Globe, and two Screen Actors Guild awards. Since that series wrapped, Gordon-Levitt’s been busy in feature films including Brick, Mysterious Skin, Stop-Loss, (500) Days of Summer, Inception, Looper, and Snowden.

Apple TV+ released the following synopsis of the original comedy:

“Mr. Corman follows the days and nights of Josh Corman (played by Gordon-Levitt), an artist at heart but not by trade. A career in music hasn’t panned out, and he teaches fifth grade at a public school in the San Fernando Valley. His ex-fiancé Megan has moved out, and his high school buddy Victor has moved in. He knows he has a lot to be thankful for, but finds himself struggling nevertheless through anxiety, loneliness, and a sinking suspicion that he sucks as a person.

Darkly funny, oddly beautiful, and deeply heartfelt, this relatable dramedy speaks for our contemporary generation of 30-somethings: rich with good intentions, poor with student loans, and yearning to become real grown-ups sometime before they die.”

The official trailer for Netflix’s limited series Halston opens with Ewan McGregor as the iconic designer declaring, “I have a vision. I’m going to change the face of American fashion.” The two-and-a-half-minute trailer reveals the series will explore what set Halston apart and will chart his rise in the fashion industry.

Netflix has set a May 14, 2021 premiere date for the five-episode limited series.

In addition to Ewan McGregor, the Halston cast includes Krysta Rodriguez as Liza Minnelli, Rebecca Dayan s Elsa Peretti, Bill Pullman as David Mahoney, Gian Franco Rodriguez as Victor Hugo, and David Pittu as Joe Eula. Sullivan Jones stars as Ed Austin, Rory Culkin is Joel Schumacher, Kelly Bishop is Eleanor Lambert, and Vera Farmiga plays Adele.

Murphy, Brennan, White, series star Ewan McGregor, Alexis Martin Woodall, Daniel Minahan, Eric Kovtun, and Killer Films’ Christine Vachon and Pamela Koffler executive produce. Minahan directed all five episodes.

Director/executive producer Minahan said Ewan McGregor was the only actor he met with for the lead role. “Christine had worked with him on 1998’s Velvet Goldmine. Ewan had read a draft of the first script and wanted to talk about the role. I brought all of my research
materials to our meeting — photographs, books, a couple of Halston gowns so that he could look at them and touch them — and we had a serious show-and-tell for an afternoon. He was very engaged and asked me every imaginable question about Halston the man. We talked about how the piece would move and how it would feel and my idea for how we would structure it, and then at the end of the meeting he said, ‘I’d really like to do this with you.’ I almost fell over. He was the only person for the role from the very beginning,” stated Minahan.

The Plot, Courtesy of Netflix:

The limited series Halston follows the legendary fashion designer (McGregor), as he leverages his single, invented name into a worldwide fashion empire that’s synonymous with luxury, sex, status and fame, literally defining the era he lives in, 1970’s and ‘80’s New York — until a hostile takeover forces him to battle for control of his most precious asset… the name Halston itself.

‘Blue Bloods’ Season 11 Episode 14 Photos: “New You” Preview

Unlike CBS’s MacGyver and Magnum P.I., Blue Bloods still has three new episodes to go in the current season. Season 11 episode 14, “The New You,” will air on Friday, May 7, 2021 at 10pm ET/PT following the season finale of Magnum PI. Episode 14 was directed by Jackeline Tejada from a script by Brian Burns.

Tom Selleck leads the cast as Frank Reagan, Donnie Wahlberg is Danny Reagan, and Bridget Moynahan plays Erin Reagan. The cast also includes Will Estes as Jamie Reagan, Len Cariou as Henry Reagan, Sami Gayle as Nicky Reagan-Boyle, Marisa Ramirez as Det. Maria Baez, and Vanessa Ray plays Officer Eddie Janko.

“The New You” Plot: Frank and the Deputy Commisioner of Press Information, Garrett Moore (Gregory Jbara), quarrel when Garrett refuses to walk back a quote he provided to a local newspaper. Also, Danny and Baez discover a connection to a feud between local residents and city-sponsored hotels for the homeless while investigating a murder, Anthony is mistaken for a mafioso and Eddie pressures Jamie to take a love language quiz.

Series Description, Courtesy of CBS:

Blue Bloods is a drama about a multi-generational family of cops dedicated to New York City law enforcement. Frank Reagan is the New York Police Commissioner, and heads both the police force and the Reagan brood. He runs his department as diplomatically as he runs his family, even when dealing with the politics that plagued his unapologetically bold father, Henry, during his stint as Chief.

A source of pride and concern for Frank is his eldest son, Danny, a seasoned detective, family man and Iraq War vet who on occasion uses dubious tactics to solve cases with his partner, Detective Maria Baez. The Reagan women in the family include middle daughter, Erin, a New York Assistant D.A. who serves as the legal compass for her siblings and father, and is a single parent to her daughter Nicky, who is pursuing a career in San Francisco. Jamie is the youngest Reagan, a Harvard Law graduate and the family’s “golden boy.”

Unable to deny the family tradition, Jamie decided to give up a lucrative future in law and follow in the family footsteps as a cop. He’s found a friend and ally in his wife, Eddie, who keeps him on his toes, and has very different reasons than the Reagans for joining the police force. The Reagans welcomed a new family addition after Frank learned his deceased son, officer Joe Reagan, has an adult child they never knew about, a young man who is a rising NYPD cop.

CBS’s Magnum P.I. season three wraps up with episode 16 which finds Thomas suggesting Higgens should follow her heart. Directed by Avi Youabian from a script by Eric Guggenheim and Geoffrey Thorne, episode 16 – “Bloodline” – will air on Friday, May 7, 2021 at 9pm ET/PT.

Jay Hernandez leads the cast as Thomas Magnum. Perdita Weeks is Juliet Higgins, Zachary Knighton is Orville “Rick” Wright, Stephen Hill is Theodore “TC” Calvin, Tim Kang stars as Det. Gordon Katsumoto, and Amy Hill as Teuila “Kumu” Tuileta.

Bobby Lee, Christopher Thornton, Jay Ali, Grace Victoria Cox, Alex Carter, and Roman Blat guest star.

“Bloodline” Plot: Magnum and Higgins work a stalking case involving a man with a past in espionage. Also, Ethan asks Higgins to join him on an extended trip for Doctors Without Borders just as Magnum starts to open up to other possibilities.

Series Description, Courtesy of CBS:

Magnum P.I. is a modern take on the classic series centering on Thomas Magnum, a decorated former Navy SEAL who, upon returning home from Afghanistan, repurposes his military skills to become a private investigator. A charming rogue, an American hero and a die-hard Detroit Tigers fan, Magnum lives in a guest cottage on Robin’s Nest, the luxurious estate where he works as a security consultant to supplement his P.I. business. The “majordomo” of the property is Juliet Higgins, a beautiful and commanding disavowed MI:6 agent whose second job is to keep Magnum in line, with the help of her two Dobermans.

When Magnum needs back-up on a job, he turns to his trusted buddies and fellow POW survivors, Theodore “TC” Calvin, a former Marine chopper pilot who runs Island Hoppers, a helicopter tour business, and Orville “Rick” Wright, a former Marine door-gunner-turned-impresario of Oahu’s coolest nightclub and the most connected man on the island.

Suspicious of Magnum’s casual attitude and presence at his crime scenes, Detective Gordon Katsumoto finds that he and Magnum are more alike than either of them care to admit. One of Magnum’s biggest supporters is Teuila “Kumu” Tuileta, the unofficial “House Mom” and cultural curator of Robin’s Nest. With keys to a vintage Ferrari in one hand, aviator sunglasses in the other, and an Old Düsseldorf longneck chilling in the fridge, Thomas Magnum is back on the case!
