H.E.R. Debuts Music Video for Diane Warren-Penned ‘Six Triple Eight’ Song “The Journey” (Exclusive)
Image
H.E.R. has released the music video for her Diane Warren-written song “The Journey” from the upcoming Netflix film The Six Triple Eight, about the only all-Black, all-female battalion in World War II.

The nearly four-and-a-half-minute music video, which The Hollywood Reporter is debuting exclusively, features H.E.R. performing the song in concert intercut with clips of the upcoming film.

Warren has been nominated for 15 best original song Oscars, but she has yet to win the award. No woman in Oscars history has received more noms in any category without winning. However, she has received an honorary Oscar.

H.E.R. won the best original song Oscar in 2021 for “Fight for You” from Judas and the Black Messiah and has won five Grammys.

‘The Six Triple Eight’ Trailer Starring Kerry Washington
Image
Writer/director Tyler Perry’s The Six Triple Eight just unveiled a full trailer ahead of its December 6, 2024 limited theatrical release. The film tells the inspirational story of the only Women’s Army Corps unit of color in WWII who were given the seemingly impossible task of getting hundreds of thousands of letters to the troops from their families at home.

“Ladies, we have been ordered to provide hope. The soldiers have not heard from their loved ones, and their loved ones have not heard from them,” says Major Charity Adams (played by Kerry Washington) in the trailer. “When there is no mail, there is low morale.”

In addition to Kerry Washington, the cast includes Ebony Obsidian, Milauna Jackson, Kylie Jefferson, Shanice Shantay, Sarah Jeffery, Pepi Sonuga, and Moriah Brown. Jeanté Godlock, Jay Reeves, Jeffery Johnson, Baadja-Lyne Odums, Donna Biscoe, Gregg Sulkin, Scott Daniel Johnson, Susan Sarandon, Dean Norris, Sam Waterston,...

Kerry Washington Inspires WWII Black Women Battalion to Battle in Tyler Perry’s ‘The Six Triple Eight’ Trailer
Image
Kerry Washington as an army captain delivers a rousing speech to the first and only Women’s Army Corps unit of color to battle overseas during the Second World War in the teaser trailer (below) for Netflix’s The Six Triple Eight from writer, director and producer Tyler Perry.

“This is our mission. And we will not fail,” Major Charity Adams (Washington) declares quayside as the 855 Black women and women of color of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion march forward at her command to board a ship taking them to battle.

Their mission was to sort through a three-year backlog of mail — 17 million letters in all — yet to be delivered to American soldiers overseas, to restore morale on the front lines.

The Netflix biopic is part of an effort to give the 6888th battalion belated recognition for their heroism as they overcame discrimination to complete their letter-posting duties well ahead of schedule.

Garcelle Beauvais Says Lifetime Film ‘Tempted by Love’ Won’t ‘Shy Away’ From Aging’s Realities: ‘That’s What Real Women Go Through’
Garcelle Beauvais
Garcelle Beauvais said her May-December romance film “Terry McMillan Presents: Tempted by Love” won’t avoid any of the realities that come with women and aging, noting that menopause and body aches are part of the natural process of getting older.

“When [Terry McMillan and I] were collaborating on ‘Tempted by Love,’ I really wanted it to come from a real place,” Beauvais told TheWrap. “At first we’re like, ‘Is it too much to do the arthritis? Is it too much to do the menopause?’ But we’re like, ‘But that’s what real women go through.’ So why would we shy away from that?”

The film, which stars and is executive produced by Beauvais, follows the journey of world-renowned chef Ava, who has been living in Europe but rushes home to care for her elderly aunt in South Carolina after she suffers from a fall. She’s then...

Where to Watch The Visitor
Image
Screenwriter and director Justin P. Lange, previously known for the creepy thrillers, The Dark and The Seventh Day, just upped the eerie ante with his 2022 release, The Visitor. Written by Adam Mason and Simon Boyes, this moody motion picture takes viewers on a dark journey to small-town rural America in the deep south as seen through the eyes of a visitor from London.

Robert Burrows is newly married to a local girl from a long line of ancestral residents of Brier Glen, a sleepy southern town with secrets that run as deep as the oil in the fryer that turns out the chitlins Robert tries in the local pub.

Filmed in and around New Orleans, The Visitor keeps viewers on the edge of their seats with a sinister storyline that’s as scalp-chillingly evil as Rosemary’s Baby.

‘The In Between’ Review: Joey King’s Post-‘Kissing Booth’ Romance Is (Another) ‘Ghost’ Ripoff for Gen Z
Image
Talk about a sub-sub-genre that won’t die. Less than two years after the soulless vapidity of Scott Speer’s “Endless”, death-obsessed Gen Z-ers are again gifted with, well, a slightly less soulless and vapid “Ghost” ripoff in the form of Arie Posin’s “The In Between.” Bolstered by the charms of Joey King — fresh off her Netflix trilogy “The Kissing Booth,” sealing her as one of our most formidable streaming romance stars —

There’s the sweet, chemistry-fizzing romance between budding orphan photographer Tessa (King) and trilingual championship rower Skylar who meet cute at a screening of “Betty Blue” at their local arthouse (kids these days!) and then try to make a go of it, and what happens after a summer together — cut short when a car accident kills Skylar.

Peacock Shares First Look at Craig Robinson Comedy Series ‘Killing It;’ Hulu Announces ‘Life and Beth’ Premiere Date (TV News Roundup)
Image
Peacock has shared the first look at its new upcoming comedy series “Killing It,” streaming this April.

Created by “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” producers Dan Goor and Luke Del Tredici, “Killing It” stars Craig Robinson as Craig, a man who competes in a state-sponsored python hunt in his quest to achieve the American Dream. The series co-stars Stephanie Nogueras as Craig’s ex-wife Camille, Jet Miller as his pre-teen daughter Vanessa and Rell Battle as his younger brother Isaiah. Claudia O’Doherty, Scott Macarthur and Wyatt Walter round out the cast.

“We love all the ambitious, challenging, thematically-rich series that populate the current peak-tv landscape,” said Goor in a statement. “We also love jokes. So, we tried to make a show that could deliver both. We wanted ‘Killing It’ to explore America’s quasi-religious obsession with entrepreneurship and wealth, and we also wanted it to be funny. Really, really funny. Plus, we wanted it to have big snakes.

‘The Sacrament’ DVD Review
Stars: Joe Swanberg, Amy Seimetz, Aj Bowen, Kate Lyn Sheil, Gene Jones, Kentucker Audley, Shaun Clay, Shawn Parsons, Donna Biscoe | Written and Directed by Ti West

New Splat Pack maestro Ti West wowed us back in 2009 with House of the Devil then again last year withInnkeepers. Whilst House of the Devil was a slow burning kind of 70’s hark-back, Innkeepers was very much a modern horror. His latest feature, The Sacrament, played at Toronto’s International Film Festival, but is it any good?

Unfortunately West goes for the slow burning thing again and it doesn’t pull off. Any slower and you’d be catatonic.The Sacrament is a film in the spirit of The Wicker Man but way less spooky.
