By spring 2024, it will have been one year since All American: Homecoming concluded its second season, and unfortunately, it seems like the wait for season three will continue past that mark. The spin-off from the original All American series, which is heading towards its sixth season, has been well-received by viewers. Despite this, it seemed like that show was at risk of being canceled after season two. Thankfully, CW picked up the series for a third season which will only deliver 13 episodes as opposed to the 20 episodes that seasons one and two delivered.

With all that being said, here’s everything you need to know for All American: Homecoming season three.

Release Date

According to a report from The Hollywood Reporter, CW hopes to release the third season of All American: Homecoming at some point in April 2024, along with the All American season 6. Production for both seasons was put on hold as a result of the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, which of course, caused delays for both All American and All American: Homecoming. Now that both strikes are over, production for both series can resume.

Cast

Pretty much all of the cast from season two of All American: Homecoming will return for season three, but there will be a few changes. Peyton Alex Smith and Kelly Jenrette will no longer be series regulars in season three. Smith plays the role of Damon Sims, a star collegiate baseball player and the love interest of Simone Hicks (played by Geffri Maya), while Jenrette Amara Patterson, Hicks’ aunt and the president of Bringston University. Both Smith and Jenrette will likely have recurring roles in season three, but it remains to be seen what these roles will look like. Additionally, Camille Hyde, who plays Thea Mays, remains undecided for season three as her role is unknown at the moment.

With that being said, the main cast for season three goes as follows: Geffri Maya as Simone Hicks, Cory Hardrict as Coach Marcus Turner, Sylvester Powell as Jessie “J.R.” Raymond, Jr., Mitchell Edwards as Cam Watkins, Netta Walker as Keisha McCalla, Rhoyle Ivy King as Nathaniel Hardin. The recurring roles for season three are Peyton Alex Smith as Damon Sims, Kelly Jenrette as Amara Patterson, Tamberla Perry as Keena Sims (Damon’s mom), Joe Holt as Jessie (J.R.’s father and Damon’s biological father), Martin Bobb-Semple as Orlando ‘Lando’ Johnson, and Blake Brewer as Nico Logan. We can also expect an appearance from Michael Evans Behling as Jordan Baker, Simone’s ex-boyfriend and the father of their child.

Plot

An official synopsis for season three has yet to be revealed, but with a refresher on where season two left off, we can somewhat see where things will go in the upcoming season.

Season two ended with the shocking reveal that Simone and Damon slept together in the closing episodes of the season. It was originally believed that the two just shared a kiss. Now, Simone, who is currently dating Lando, has a big decision to make about which boy she wants to commit to, if either of them, in her life. JR tells his KEK brothers that he will take the blame for allegations that the chapter hazed its members, something the brothers are extremely against as JR was the one who was against the idea of hazing the most. JR’s sacrifice is needed so that members like Cam can continue to attend the university on the scholarship they receive through KEK.

The biggest surprise in the season two finale was the reveal that Marcus is married. The news arrives during a celebratory moment between Marcus and Amara who informed the Bringston kids of their relationship. Shortly after the news is shared, Marcus’ wife knocks on the door for an arrival that shocks both Marcus and Amara. In an interview with Deadline, co-showrunners Nkechi Okoro Carroll and Marqui Jackson explained the decision to write a previous marriage into Marcus’ past.

We hadn’t specifically landed on the wife of it all for Season 2, but we knew there’s a chunk of time in Marcus’s life that shaped the man he is today. You don’t become the man he is today who is the father figure to the boys, the coach figure, the pillar of strength and support and everything… you don’t become as enlightened a man as he is now, without going through some stuff. Those are the gaps that we’re starting to fill in. And one of the things that happened in those missing years was that he got married. We will explain in Season 3 how and why she technically is still his wife.

Trailer

There isn’t a trailer for All American: Homecoming season three at the moment, but when there is, we’ll make sure to share it with you all.

Lauryn Hill has announced that she is canceling her remaining tour dates, following the now-final performance she has in Philly this weekend. She had been playing shows both with a set tied to the 25th anniversary of her solo debut and with the Fugees in support of their time as a band.

In an Instagram post, Hill described how she was feeling the effects of her Prednisone prescription — that she was taking to get through vocal strain on the tour.

“As many of you may know, I’ve been battling serious vocal strain for the past month,” she wrote. “I made it through each show by taking prescribed prednisone, but this can be detrimental to the body when taken in large amounts over long periods of time. In order to prevent any long term negative affect on my voice and my body, I need to take time off to allow for real vocal recovery so that I can discontinue the medication completely.”

However, there is a positive side — the dates that have been canceled will be rescheduled for sometime in early 2024. “Because of the overwhelming response, we’ll be adding new cities to the tour, including overseas,” Hill added. “We’re working on the new calendar now, and announcing soon.”

Kids, let me tell you about a time before it was impossible to get Taylor Swift concert tickets.

The year was 2018, and Swift was traveling the world on the Reputation Stadium Tour. Back then, tickets were, well, still expensive, but they weren’t as expensive. Fortunately, much like with the box office record-breaking Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour, everyone who wasn’t able to attend could experience the Rep era through Taylor Swift: Reputation Stadium Tour on Netflix.

But now according to What’s On Netflix, the concert film — a Netflix production, mind you — is being removed from the streaming service at the end of December 2023. This is why we can’t have nice things.

Netflix has been removing dozens of its Original titles. The reason why some Originals have been removed often comes down to ultimate ownership of a show or movie and that Netflix has licensed (albeit exclusively) for a fixed period. That does appear to be the case here, with the concert licensed to Netflix for a five-year fixed window, and that window is now coming up.

Swifties are not taking kindly to the news. “im sorry but what do you mean that the reputation tour movie that was exclusively made for netflix is now going to be removed from netflix,” @shookswiftie wrote on X, while @brittibabyyy added, “i’m still so sad they’re removing reputation from netflix. wtf am i supposed to watch when i need to feel like a bad bitch again.” Here’s more:

The only way I’ll feel better is if Reputation (Taylor’s Version) gets announced this weekend.

Over the course of the past decade, Lana Del Rey has made major contributions to her own catalog, as well those of others’. Last year, she delivered “Snow On The Beach,” a highly anticipated collaboration with Taylor Swift from the latter’s Midnights album. While the album, as a whole, was well-received, some fans were disappointed that Del Rey mostly contributed background vocals, rather than fully-fledged lead vocals.

In a new video interview with Harper’s Bazaar, Del Rey explained how “Snow On The Beach” came together. She revealed that she matched Swift’s vocals so uncannily, that fans may not have noticed her vocals, as they were layered together so well.

“I can mimic almost anyone, so I am all over the first version of ‘Snow On The Beach,’” Del Rey said. “I layer and match her vocals perfectly, so you would never even know that I was completely all over that first song. She wanted me to sing the whole thing, but if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”

Elsewhere in the video, Del Rey said she was happy to act as a co-producer on the song.

Earlier this year, Swift released a special edition of Midnights, with a new version of “Snow On The Beach,” featuring more vocals from Del Rey.

Jenna Ortega is reportedly not returning for Scream 7. The news arrived on the heels of reports that Melissa Barrera was let go from the film for making controversial remarks about the Israel and Palestine conflict on social media. However, Ortega’s exit is reportedly because of the shooting schedule for her hit Netflix series Wednesday.

Via Deadline:

We understand that Ortega’s exit from the next Scream was discussed before the actors strike. A script for Scream VII is not ready yet, and the Primetime Emmy nominee has to head to Ireland in April to shoot the second season of Netflix’s Wednesday which will go into the summer. Additionally, Beetlejuice post SAG-AFTRA strike had a few extra days of shooting in order to meet its Labor Day 2024 theatrical release.

While other trades have corroborated with sources that Ortega planned to leave the franchise before Barrera’s firing, that has not stopped the speculation on social media from running rampant. Earlier this morning, an unsourced tweet from PopTingz claimed that Ortega asked to end her contract after Barrera was fired. The official reporting claims that’s not true, and Ortega was already eyeing an exit because of her increasingly busy schedule.

That reporting could also explain why it was so easy to let Barrera go. She played Ortega’s sister, Sam Carpenter, in Scream V and Scream VI. With Ortega reportedly expressing her desire to leave before the strike, the seventh installment could have already been pivoting away from the Carpenter family.

Regardless, social media will have a field day claiming the official studio story is a cover-up for Ortega quitting over Barrera’s firing, and it will be hard to dispel that narrative whether it’s true or not.

When Leave the World Behind arrives on Netflix next month, Mr. Robot fans might notice a reference to the Rami Malek hacker series. According to the film’s director and Mr. Robot creator Sam Esmail, those suspicions are correct.

In Leave the World Behind, Mahershala Ali arrives at Julia Roberts and Ethan Hawke’s vacation home with warnings of mysterious cyberattack. At one point, Ali’s character references an “almost apocalyptic hack” that took place in New Jersey years ago. Mr. Robot fans will no doubt recall that a toxic waste scandal in New Jersey was a major plot point for the series, and Esmail has confirmed to Entertainment Weekly that the hack Ali mentions is one and the same.

“I would say actually that all of the things I’ve worked on, Mr. Robot, Homecoming, Comet, and Leave the World Behind are kind of all in the same universe,” Esmail said before dropping a coy response to whether there are other Mr. Robot references hidden in the film. “You’ll have to watch it again and see.”

Here’s the official synopsis:

In this apocalyptic thriller from award-winning writer and director Sam Esmail (Mr. Robot), Amanda (Academy Award winner Julia Roberts) and her husband Clay (Academy Award nominee Ethan Hawke), rent a luxurious home for the weekend with their kids, Archie (Charlie Evans) and Rose (Farrah Mackenzie). Their vacation is soon upended when two strangers — G.H. (Academy Award winner Mahershala Ali) and his daughter Ruth (Myha’la Herrold) — arrive in the night, bearing news of a mysterious cyberattack and seeking refuge in the house they claim is theirs. The two families reckon with a looming disaster that grows more terrifying by the minute, forcing everyone to come to terms with their places in a collapsing world.

Leave the World Behind is now playing in select theaters before streaming on Netflix on December 8.

Harve Pierre, the former president of Bad Boy Entertainment, is facing a lawsuit accusing him of grooming and sexually assaulting his assistant, Rolling Stone reports.

The complaint was filed in New York County Supreme Court and it reads in part, “Pierre used his position of authority as plaintiff’s boss to groom, exploit, and sexually assault her. Pierre engaged in a year-long pattern of grooming plaintiff, leading to sexual harassment of plaintiff, and sexual assault.”

The plaintiff, who remains anonymous, alleges Pierre sexually assaulted her multiple times in 2016 and 2017, which caused physical, emotional, and psychological injuries, as well as pain and suffering. She is seeking damages that will “fully and fairly compensate” her.

The suit also lists Bad Boy Entertainment, Bad Boy Records, and Combs Enterprises as co-defendants, saying, “Defendants knew or should have known that Pierre was unfit to be in a position of authority before Pierre sexually assaulted plaintiff.” The suit claims the companies did not “properly supervise” Pierre.

A Bad Boy spokesperson told Rolling Stone, “We have recently become aware of a lawsuit filed in New York by a former employee. The allegations are from many years ago that were never brought to the attention of the company. Neither the plaintiff nor the executive are current employees of the company. We are now investigating the allegations, and our top priority is the safety and well-being of our employees.”

This comes just days after Bad Boy founder Diddy settled a rape and physical abuse lawsuit filed against him by Cassie.

Photographer James Balog and his crew were hanging out near a glacier when their camera captured something extraordinary.

They were in Greenland, gathering footage from the time-lapse they’d positioned all around the Arctic Circle for the last several years.

They were also there to shoot scenes for a documentary. And while they were hoping to capture some cool moments on camera, no one expected a huge chunk of a glacier to snap clean off and slide into the ocean right in front of their eyes.

It was the largest such event ever filmed.

For nearly an hour and 15 minutes, Balog and his crew stood by and watched as a piece of ice the size of lower Manhattan — but with ice-equivalent buildings that were two to three times taller than that — simply melted away.

As far as anyone knows, this was an unprecedented geological catastrophe and they caught the entire thing on tape. It won’t be the last time something like this happens either.

But once upon a time, Balog was openly skeptical about that “global warming” thing.

Balog had a reputation since the early 1980s as a conservationist and environmental photographer. And for nearly 20 years, he’d scoffed at the climate change heralds shouting, “The sky is falling! The sky is falling!”

“I didn’t think that humans were capable of changing the basic physics and chemistry of this entire, huge planet. It didn’t seem probable, it didn’t seem possible,” he explained in the 2012 documentary film “Chasing Ice.”

There was too much margin of error in the computer simulations, too many other pressing problems to address about our beautiful planet. As far as he was concerned, these melodramatic doomsayers were distracting from the real issues.

That was then.

In fact, it wasn’t until 2005 that Balog became a believer.

He was sent on a photo expedition of the Arctic by National Geographic, and that first northern trip was more than enough to see the damage for himself.

“It was about actual tangible physical evidence that was preserved in the ice cores of Greenland and Antarctica,” he said in a 2012 interview with ThinkProgress. “That was really the smoking gun showing how far outside normal, natural variation the world has become. And that’s when I started to really get the message that this was something consequential and serious and needed to be dealt with.”

Some of that evidence may have been the fact that more Arctic landmass has melted away in the last 20 years than the previous 10,000 years.

When I saw these incredible photos Angelo Merendino took of his wife, Jennifer, as she battled breast cancer, I felt that I shouldn’t be seeing this snapshot of their intimate, private lives.

The photos humanize the face of cancer and capture the difficulty, fear, and pain that they experienced during the difficult time.

But as Angelo commented: “These photographs do not define us, but they are us.“

On Feb. 19, 2023, “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood,” turned 55 years old. And the internet was feeling feelings over it.

After premiering on Canadian TV in 1963, Fred Rogers’ beloved children’s program debuted in the U.S. in 1968, inspiring generations of kids across North America to be more thoughtful, kinder neighbors.

One person feeling the feels on the show’s anniversary was model, author, and Twitter goddess Chrissy Teigen.

Teigen tweeted the most delightful anecdote about why Rogers would often announce that he was feeding the fish during the show.

Mister Rogers would narrate himself feeding the fish each episode with u201cIu2019m feeding the fishu201d because of a letter he received from a young blind girl who was worried the fish were hungry. Love you, Mister Rogers.https://twitter.com/pbsds/status/965596450733228032u00a0u2026

“Mister Rogers would narrate himself feeding the fish each episode with, ‘I’m feeding the fish,’ because of a letter he received from a young blind girl who was worried the fish were hungry,” she wrote. “Love you, Mister Rogers.”

Aaaaaand I’m crying.

Rogers included the text of the girl’s letter in his book, “Dear Mister Rogers, Does It Ever Rain in Your Neighborhood?” published in 1996.

As he noted in the book (emphasis added):

One girl and her family wrote to tell us there was a special reason why she wanted me to talk about feeding the fish each day.

Dear Mister Rogers,

Please say when you are feeding your fish, because I worry about them. I can’t see if you are feeding them, so please say you are feeding them out loud.

Katie, age 5 (Father’s note: Katie is blind, and she does cry if you don’t say that you have fed the fish.)

This downright adorable clip from the series shows Rogers reassuring little Katie that the fish were always well-fed:

Sylvia Earle brought her underwater microphone to Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood so children could listen to the fish in the aquarium. When the fish don’t make…

“I need to feed the fish right away,” Rogers said in the episode, before shaking the container of food above the tank. “I have some friends who get very concerned when I forget the fish during our visits.”

Aaaaaand I’m ugly crying.

Rogers showed us how simple it often is to be a more compassionate friend.

“I just wanted you to know that even if I forget to feed them when we’re together, I come back later and feed them, so they’re always taken care of,” Rogers concluded. “It’s good to know that fish and animals and children are taken care of by those who can, isn’t it?”

Yes it is, Mister Rogers. The world needs more neighbors like you.
