I have first images from two new shows for you today, starting with NBC's GROSSE POINTE GARDEN SOCIETY which will follow four members of a suburban garden club, all from different walks of life, who get caught up in murder and mischief as they struggle to make their conventional lives bloom. Ben Rappaport is Brett, cool in a threadbare kind of way, he put
his own dreams of starting a car restoration business on hold so his
wife (now ex-wife) could finish law school. Melissa Fumero
is Birdie. Entitled, rich, swathed in Chanel, a smoker, a drinker,
self-destructive at times, toxic at others, but not without real pain
beneath her facade. Aja Naomi King plays Catherine, an unhappily married mother of two younger children, a realtor who works off some of her loneliness with a very juicy secret. Matthew Davis is Joel, a police officer whom Birdie takes an interest in. Anna Sophia Robb is Alice, your favorite high school English teacher, a dreamer whose best dreams are crashing down on her. Alexander Hodge plays Doug, Alice’s husband. Check out the trailer for February 23rd series.

lead roles. Our dearest WestWorld star Simon Quarterman also stars. What would you do if you weren't afraid? The film follows Violet Calder (Olivia Munn) as she realizes that she can no longer ignore the daily barrage of self criticisms (voiced by Justin Theroux) that clouds her life. These self criticisms cause her to make fear based decisions and hold her back from the kind of professional, personal, and romantic life she knows she wants. Unsure how to live a life free from that self doubt, like her childhood friend Red (Luke Bracey), Violet realizes she has no choice but to travel the road that is more frightening to her than the fear that holds her back: Doing everything differently.
Here is another new big screen project that will be offered to buyers at Cannes virtual market this month: the plot of Olivia Munn's new movie promises an action packed thriller with elements of science fiction: in REPLAY, which she will also produce with Jimmy Loweree as writer and director, she will play a woman called Erin Staffer, whose husband is kidnapped and murdered. Now, armed only with illegal, bleeding edge technology and a desperate plan, Erin must do everything in her power to change the past and save him. The producers are hoping this will be the birth of a new female action star.

The educational career of an impossibly smug public schoolboy, compulsive liar and Oscar Wilde wannabe, Adrian Healey, whose duplicitous pranks and game playing somehow get him embroiled in an international espionage case with his university professors. As fuge and subterfuge feature, Adrian searches for the meaning of life; well, his life anyway.
