The Franchise

Deadline reports Billy Magnussen, Jessica Hynes, Darren Goldstein, Lolly Adefope, and Isaac Powell have joined the cast of The Franchise, a new series from Armando Iannucci and Sam Mendes following “a hopeful crew trapped inside the dysfunctional, nonsensical, joyous hellscape of franchise superhero moviemaking. If and when they finally make the day, there’s a question they must face: Is this Hollywood’s new dawn or cinema’s last stand? Is this a dream factory or a chemical plant?”

Stinger

According to Bloody-Disgusting, Peacock has given a straight-to-series order for an adaptation of Robert McCammon’s sci-fi novel, Stinger, from James Wan and Yellowstone’s Ian McCulloch. In the book, two spacecraft— one harboring a fugitive, the other an alien bounty hunter—crash land in a small Texas town “driven to the brink by racial tension, gang violence, and a collapsing economy.”

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

Taken to task for the series’ “hawkish” attitude toward the Gorn, Anson Mount stated the second season of Strange New Worlds will tackle questions “down that exact road” in a recent interview with the German website, TrekZone.de (via TrekMovie).

Well, you’ll have to see where we take that. Because some of those themes go on in the second season and really asking those exact questions that you were just asking. Is it possible that intelligence can be so completely ripped apart from any sense of communication or idealism? That, is there such a thing as a monster? Is that really possible? So yeah, we go down that exact road.
