THE RUNNING MAN: Nowhere near as incendiary as it thinks it is while also jumping wildly from one story beat to another. The fact it even threatens to hang together at all is due to some real movie star shit from Powell.

For Men's Health, I chatted with Vince Gilligan about #PLURIBUS, including how he developed the show for Rhea Seehorn, why he loves THE LAST OF US & THE WALKING DEAD, and how Kodachrome film of the 1950s and 60s influenced its visual language—spoiler warning at the link: dub.sh/tkOWbjg
Vince Gilligan Made 'Breaking Bad' and 'Better Call Saul.' His New Show Is Something Else Entirely.
The TV mastermind tells us all about 'Pluribus,' a sci-fi drama that asks: What if everyone in the world was happy but you?

I think she’s as candid in this piece as I would *ever* expect anybody to be. I don’t know what she could do at this point that wouldn’t be interpreted as somehow not fully herself. I can’t escape the feeling that men simply *never* get this much scrutiny about whether they are real/open/genuine.
Jia Tolentino was clearly an ideal writer for this Jennifer Lawrence profile but the entire thing is laced with the wariness of the guarded celebrity subject. No writer can wholly overcome that. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...
Jennifer Lawrence Goes Dark
She has been cast in maternal roles since her teens. Now, playing a mother for the first time since becoming one, she has chosen the part of a woman pushed past the edge of sanity.

Haven't finished all of the screeners HBO sent for IT: WELCOME TO DERRY but it is a nasty bit of business (complimentary). Scary and gory as hell, while doing so strong character and world building. Eager to watch more.
