PGA Awards, New Film Adaptations, and a Tribute to a Beloved NHL Radio Host
The entertainment industry has been abuzz with exciting news this week, from award wins to new film adaptations. The Producers Guild of America (PGA) kicked off the celebrations by announcing early winners of the PGA Awards. Among the winners were "Sesame Street," "Formula 1: Drive to Survive," and "Adolescence: The Making of Adolescence." The majority of awards will be announced on Saturday at the annual Producers Guild Awards.
In other news, Searchlight Pictures has announced that Jonathan Levine will be directing an adaptation of Grady Hendrix's horror-comedy novel "Horrorstör." The novel, published in 2014, tells the story of an Ikea-like furniture superstore in Cleveland that becomes subject to supernatural occurrences. Levine, known for his work on films like "Long Shot" and "50/50," will also be writing the adaptation.
Meanwhile, the NHL community is mourning the loss of Jim "Boomer" Gordon, a longtime host of The Point with Boomer Gordon on SiriusXM NHL Network Radio. Gordon passed away on Monday after a 3 1/2-year battle with cancer. He was 55. Colleagues and friends paid tribute to Gordon, remembering him for his unique hosting style and passion for hockey.
In other film news, Prime Video has released the trailer for "Pretty Lethal," a survival action-thriller starring Uma Thurman as a former dance prodigy turned unhinged villain. The film follows a group of elite ballerinas as they fight for their lives in a remote inn.
These are just a few of the exciting developments in the entertainment industry this week. With awards season in full swing and new adaptations on the horizon, there's no shortage of exciting news for fans to look forward to.
