Helen Hunt’s ‘Twister 2’ Got Rejected by the Studio for ‘Potentially Shady’ Reasons, Says Co-Writer Daveed Diggs

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Daveed Diggs confirmed in a new interview with Insider that he was attached to a “Twister” sequel that was being developed by original star Helen Hunt. The two actors star together on the Starz original series “Blindspotting.” Hunt confirmed on “Watch What Happens Live” in 2021 that she was writing an inclusive “Twitter” sequel that she intended to direct, but the studio rejected her to the point of not even taking a meeting. “Oh man, I’m not going to get into it mostly because I’m probably going to misremember things,” Diggs told Insider. “But all I’ll say is there was an opportunity where we were talking about that, and it didn’t happen, and the reasons that it didn’t happen are potentially shady. But shady in the way that we know the industry is shady.”

‘John Wick’ Prequel Series ‘The Continental’ Reveals Hotel’s Killer Origins in First Trailer

McKinley Franklin author It’s time to check into “The Continental.” The world of “John Wick” is expanding with the upcoming prequel series “The Continental” — which doesn’t include Keanu Reeves’ staple character, but after seeing the first trailer, it looks like the action-packed show may not need him anyway. “The Continental” is a prequel miniseries based on the four main “John Wick” movies. The original set of films, including last month’s “John Wick 4,” follows Reeves’ ex-hitman character, John Wick, who comes out of retirement on a quest for bloody vengeance. “The Continental” will give audiences a glimpse into the early “John Wick” universe before the timeline of the first film with its three episodes. The show will premiere on Peacock in September.

Latin Music Revenue Hits Record High of $1.1 Billion, Per RIAA Report

Thania Garcia Latin music revenue in the United States reached an all-time high of $1.1 billion in 2022, marking the industry’s second year of double-digit growth for an annual increase of 24%. As predicted in the RIAA’s mid-year report, that number outpaced that of any other market. RIAA’s year-end Latin music report for 2022 also highlights an all-time high for the industry at a 6.9% market share — up from 5.9% in 2021. With such striking stats, it’s clear major labels and Latin artists have begun to engage with fans — despite language barriers — across markets to make the music more easily accessible. This is especially true on the streaming front where revenue expanded by 25% to $1.06 billion, making up a remarkable 97% of all Latin music revenues. The Latin music scape of 2022 was undoubtedly led by Bad Bunny’s “Un Verano Sin Ti,” the second all-Spanish-language album to reach No. 1 on the 66-year-old Billboard 200 chart. (The first was none other than Bad Bunny’s 2020 album “El Último Tour del Mundo.”) The Puerto Rican megastar was the most-streamed artist globally on Spotify for the third year in a row with more than 18.5 billion streams.

German band boycott the UK after “humiliating” border experience due to new Brexit rules

Brexit rule changes.“Today we got refused at the UK border for weird reasons,” the band wrote in a Facebook update. “We would have needed a special certificate of sponsorship but no one knew before, not even the venues, promoters, or the German customs authority.”“Brexit bureaucracy??? A post-Brexit nightmare,” they continued, adding that the whole ordeal at the UK border was “humiliating” and “sad”.They elaborated on the reasons behind their denied entry into the UK in another update, saying that the UK authorities expected them to have “a so-called certificate of sponsorship from all seven clubs,” – something which they claim even the organisers were unfamiliar with.“I think I’ve never felt so degraded, sad, and bad as I do today.
