NEWS:

STREAMING - From DeadlineLionsgate’s "50 Cent Action," the FAST (which means "free ad-supported streaming television") channel curated by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, has become the #1 action channel on both The Roku Channel and LG Channels.  "50 Cent Action" first debuted with an exclusive launch on Roku, where it quickly became the most-watched action channel on The Roku Channel in the first quarter of the year. Its recent rollout on LG Channels has already achieved the same milestone—cementing the channel’s appeal and momentum across the FAST space.

MOVIES - From Variety:  "Back to the Future" screenwriter Bob Gale says that there will never be another prequel, sequel, spinoff, or TV adaptation of the beloved 1985 film. Apparently, Steven Spielberg would have to sign off on it, and he reportedly won't.

MOVIES - From DeadlineUniversal Pictures has set Joseph Kosinski to direct its latest attempt at a film based on the 1980s police drama, "Miami Vice."  The last time was the 2006 film starring Colin Farrel and Jamie Foxx.

BOX OFFICE - From BoxOfficePro:  The winner of the 4/25 to 4/27/2025 weekend box office is Warner Bros. Pictures' Sinners with an estimated take of 45 million dollars.

From Variety:  Legendary bluesman, Buddy Guy, speaks on his buzzy movie role in Warner Bros. Pictures' and director Ryan Coogler's hit film, "Sinners." Guys says "it's a dream come true; to be honest… I did it to help the blues."

SPORTS/NBA/BLM - From NBA:  The National Basketball Association celebrates the 75th anniversary of its first three Black players:  Chuck Cooper, Earl Lloyd, and Nathaniel Clifton.  Cooper, out of Duquesne, was drafted in the second round of the 1950 NBA Draft (April 25th) by the Boston Celtics, becoming the first Black player drafted in the league

STREAMING - From DeadlineApple will begin filming a sequel to Tom Hank's World War II action film, "Greyhound" (2020), in early 2026.

SCANDAL - From THR:  What's life behind bars like for former studio boss and mogul, Harvey Weinstein? He's still running things?

MOVIES - From Deadline:  Director Michael Bay will united with actress Sydney Sweeney on a film adaptation of Sega's arcade videogame, "OutRun."  The film is from Universal, and so far, Sweeney is only on board to produce.

BOX OFFICE - From BoxOfficePro:  The winner of the 4/18 to 1/20/2025 Easter weekend box office is Warner Bros. Pictures' Sinners with an estimated take of 45.6 million dollars.

From Variety:  "Variety" decided to throw ice water on the box office success of Ryan Coogler's film, Sinners, which was the #1 film at the North American box office this past Easter weekend. [I say to "Variety": "Shoo, fly, shoo!"]

From Deadline:  The final weekend box office numbers show a 48 million dollar debut for Ryan Coogler's blues-infused Southern vampire potboiler, "Sinners."

MOVIES - From Deadline:  Oscar-winner Jeff Bridges says that both he and co-star Julianne Moore are up for a sequel to the Coen Bros.'s 1998 cult classic, "The Big Lebowski."

OBITS:

From YahooSports:  Former NBA player, Stan Love, has died at the age of 76, Sunday, April 27, 2025.  After playing collegiately for the University of Oregon Ducks from 1968 to 1971, Love was drafted in 1971 NBA Draft (1st round, 9th pick) by the Baltimore Bullets.  Love would go on to have a four year career, also playing for the Los Angeles Lakers and San Antonio Spurs.  Love is the father of NBA champion Kevin Love.  He is also the younger brother of Mike Love, who cofounded the legendary rock band, "The Beach Boys," with their cousins: Brian, Carl, and Dennis Wilson.

From Deadline:  American actor, Will Hutchins, has died at the age of 94, Monday, April 21, 2025.  Hutchins may be best known as the star of the ABC Western television series, "Sugarfoot" (1957-61).  "Sugarfoot" is believed to be the first Western comedy TV series, having debuted five days before another ABC Western comedy, "Maverick" (1957-62). Hutchins would later guest-star in an episode of "Maverick."  Hutchins other major roles included Monte Hellman's film, "The Shooting" (1965) and the Elvis Presley films, "Spinout" (1966) and "Clambake" (1967).

From CNNPope Francis, the 266th pop of the Catholic Church, has died at the age of 88, Monday, April 21, 2025.  Born Jorge Mario Bergoglio in Buenos Aires, Argentina on December 17, 1936.  Pope Francis was the head of the Catholic Church and sovereign of the Vatican City State from March 13, 2013 until his death.  He was the first pope from the Society of Jesus (the Jesuit Order).  He was the first pope from the Americas and from the Southern Hemisphere.  He was the first born or raised outside Europe since the 8th-century Syrian pope, Gregory III.  When he was chosen as the Pope by a "papal conclave," he chose the name Francis in honor of St. Francis of Assisi.

From YahooNews:  Pope Francis died of a cerebral stroke that lead to coma and then heart failure, according to the Vatican.

From Reuters:  Pope Francis: his pontificate in numbers; his career by the years.
