From the world of TV and film, updates on 'Sugar', 'Silo', 'Monopoly', and more
What Happened
The world of entertainment is abuzz with new projects and departures. In California, Colleen Bell, the director of the state's film commission, has announced that she will be stepping down in early January. Bell, who has served in the role for six years, will transition out of the position in tandem with outgoing Gov. Gavin Newsom.
New Projects
Meanwhile, new projects are in the works across various platforms. Apple TV's 'Sugar' has brought in Sam Catlin, a two-time Emmy winner and writer-producer of 'Breaking Bad', to help shape the show's first season. Catlin, who also worked on 'Preacher', has been recruited by former Sony executives he worked with during his 'Breaking Bad' tenure.
Netflix, on the other hand, has ordered a competition series based on the world of 'Monopoly', where contestants will compete for a $2 million prize. The show will feature 12 players using strategy, alliance, and dealmaking to take home the prize.
Amazon MGM Studios is also working on a new romantic comedy, 'Love Love', starring Tyriq Withers and Isabel May. The film, written and directed by Joey Power, follows a struggling tennis phenom who falls for a charismatic local ball boy at the US Open.
Release Schedules
For fans of 'Silo', the wait is almost over. Season 3 of the science-fiction television series adaptation, based on the books by Hugh Howey, is set to arrive just before America's 250th birthday. New episodes will feature some new faces, including Steve Zahn, who joined the show in season 2.
