What Happened
In a week filled with movie and TV updates, President Donald Trump took aim at a judge who halted his plans to renovate the Kennedy Center and ordered his name removed from the building. Meanwhile, the horror film "Backrooms" hit theaters nationwide, and Paramount announced changes to its K-Pop movie release.

- K-Pop: The Debut: Paramount's K-Pop movie, previously titled "K-Pop Superstar: The Movie," will now be released on February 26 instead of February 12. The film follows a young Korean-American woman competing in a televised K-Pop competition.
