Prince Harry’s African charity, called African Parks, has been linked to numerous human rights abuses carried out by park rangers.

African Parks Issued A Formal Apology To The Victims

The Duke of Sussex was President of the charity from 2017 until 2023, when he was promoted to the governing board of directors.

An investigation conducted by the Mail, in January of last year, discovered evidence of abuse in the rainforest by guards working for the conservation organization who subjected indigenous people to a bevy of crimes, including rape, torture and beatings.

The charity admitted to these abuses that took place in the Odzala-Kokoua National Park, which African Parks manages.

These findings are a fresh blow to Harry after his Sentable charity became immersed in scandal when he resigned from the board, along with co-founder Prince Seeiso of Lethoso. The board of trustees also quit.

Chairwoman Sophie Chandauka accused Harry of harassment and bullying,...

The first Troll film concerned the magical adventures of a teenager named Harry Potter. The second, according to a new documentary, is the Best Worst Movie ever made. And no one seems sure if there even was a third movie. In this special report EW examines the twisted, crazy, and frequently so-bad-it's-hilarious world of... Troll! Next: “I don’t think Troll 2 is the worst movie of all-time. I think Transformers 2 is the worst movie of all time.” On a beautiful Brooklyn evening last July, Michael Paul Stephenson took part in a question-and-answer session following an outdoor screening of the 1990 horror movie Troll 2.

A screenwriter has signed for the impossible task of bringing TV’s “American Gladiators” to the big screen.

Peter Iliff (Varsity Blues, Point Break) believes he’s man enough to take on the adaptation. “Gladiators” creator Johnny Ferraro is producing with the help of Scott Mednick (who is also reviving the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles).

Variety reports the story will center on the Gladiators as superheroes, which is news to me because I was certain Nitro was some sort of modern-day Hercules. Now I find out he’s just a muscle-bound actor and my memories are tarnished. This is just like last year when I found out Michelle from “Full House” somehow grew into twin skeletons. Next you’re going to tell me reality television is staged.

When the project was originally announced in May 2009, Ferraro saw it as a “compelling story” that would introduce a new set of characters.

In a time when studios are making movies based on board games, does it shock anyone that a big screen version of American Gladiators is in development? It shouldn't, especially when you stop and consider that the Ag movie is capitalizing on Hollywood's last fad, the superhero movie genre. If you were wondering what kind of story an American Gladiators movie would have and if it would try and port over the reality sports gaming competition format to a three-act structure, don't sweat it. For the movie the muscular men and women will be superheroes. I suppose that's an appropriate mode of adaptation considering that the Gladiators have code-names like Dutch, Laser, Ice, Venom, Titan, Siren, Justice, Wolf...whoa, I had to stop myself there! Once you're spouting off their names you just can't stop!

Screenwriter Peter Iliff has been hired to find some way to flesh out the American Gladiators movie.

Gladiators producers banned the show's new stars from taking on suggestive nicknames.

Chiefs told the new set of Gladiators that they could come up with their own names, but were shocked by what the group came up with.

According to the Daily Star, Sam Bond hoped to be called Randy because of his flirtatious nature, while Caroline Pearce suggested the name of Bazooka because of her large breasts. Meanwhile, Damar Martin campaigned for the name of Rocket as he is the most well-endowed of the men.
