"Les Revenants" rammenda le vite di chi è rimasto vivo
With the way that Ebola is dominating headlines right now – despite Shep Smith’s best and most rational efforts – it would have been more surprising if nobody tried to fictionalize it. It is instead Fox TV Studios that will be developing a series
based on the work of author Richard Preston with producers Ridley Scott
and Lynda Obst. The duo originally wanted to turn Preston’s bestselling
book, “The Hot Zone,” into a feature film starring Jodie Foster 20
years ago, but the project obviously didn’t pan out. “I think it’s the speed with which it kills that makes the disease so frightening,” Obst tells The Hollywood Reporter. “People hoped it would stay in some remote part of the world. But that’s a fantasy in the modern world. The modern world makes us one big connected family.”In regard to just the first chapter of “The Hot Zone,” Stephen King called it “one of the most horrifying things I’ve read in my whole life – and then it gets worse. That’s what I keep marveling over: it keeps getting worse. What a remarkable piece of work.” Keep in mind that it is a non-fiction thriller. Preston’s work in writing about Ebola isn’t limited to “The Hot Zone,” which examined the origins of this disease and similar viruses. In an article in the New Yorker last month, Preston recapped the “explosive” emergence of Ebola in West Africa, and that information will be included in the series, as will a piece that he has written for next week’s New Yorker that will cover the latest cases in the U.S.
The antibody serum ZMAPP seems to be amazingly effective but we don’t know because it’s only been tried on the two patients. As for aftereffects, i interviewed Dr. Shem Musoke who nearly died of Marburg (close cousin of Ebola) and he told me it took him about a year to recover fully but now he was fine. It’s a crushing disease but if you survive you do recover.… to how medical workers can avoid being infected while treating the disease.
They haven’t been able to fully protect themselves, doctors and nurses are dying. They’re wearing full protection biohazard suits, but the Ebola wards are just horrifying, 30 Ebola patients with one doctor and one nurse, both in space suits. Conditions are awful in those wards, we need more doctors and nurses – not even a space suit can totally protect you if the ward is really a mess.According to The Hollywood Reporter, Preston has been working with Scott and Obst in the development of this limited series.

Adesso che #Gotham è stato prolungato a 22 episodi, la presenza/assenza di #Joker diventa indispensabile/immanente.

Il ritorno di #FoxTheWalkingDead, tanta azione, qualche sfilacciatura e il rischio dell'inverosimile a discapito dell'introspezione. 6-

“I thought the atmosphere in Twin Peaks was the right mood to have in the performance,” Branquinho said at the time in a video interview. “It’s the perfect match for what I wanted to do.”

Anche Batman è stato ragazzo. Ha
vissuto un’adolescenza fortunata, racchiusa nelle pareti dorate della famiglia
Wayne. Fino al giorno in cui i genitori sono stati uccisi e il suo destino è
diventato quello di battersi per la giustizia nei panni del Cavaliere Oscuro. Arriva finalmente in Italia la serie più attesa dell’anno,
capostipite di una “new wave” di serie tv ispirate ai fumetti che invaderanno
il piccolo schermo nella nuova stagione. “Gotham”,
il serial che racconta le origini dell’Uomo Pipistrello, parte su Italia 1 domenica 12 ottobre in prima
serata con i primi due episodi in anteprima, per poi passare su Premium Action dal 20 ottobre, ogni
lunedì sempre in prima serata. E’ la
prima volta che una serie tv viene trasmessa in “cross-casting” da un canale
free a uno pay. In coincidenza con i 75 anni di “Batman”, “Gotham” è la pù grande scommessa televisiva d’Oltreoceano degli ultimi anni.
Per diversi motivi. Stephen Collins di #SettimoCielo è stato espulso da #Scandal perchè andava in giro nudo sotto l'impermeabile bianco.

Allora era Tv generalista, adesso PayTv. Perché operazione vintage? O nel 1990 la Tv era più innovativa? #twinpeaks http://t.co/3m36mMoxP3

Quelli che parlano di "remake" di #TwinPeaks sparano una reboot-tanata ancestrale.

No, la nuova stagione di #TwinPeaks nel 2016, NO.
Showtime, non farlo.
Rimangiati tutto, per favore.

La cosa + intrigante del ritorno di #TwinPeaks è che le 2 storiche stagioni dell'ABC sono su @Netflix.

Articolo tratto da "Variety"Paramount is moving forward with its big-screen adaptation of Baywatch and has loosely attached Dwayne Johnson for beach patrol duties. The studio also has hired Justin Malen to rewrite and has attached the hot comedy writing team of Sean Anders and John Morris (We’re the Millers, Horrible Bosses 2) to direct.Oh, like all it takes to be in Baywatch is the ability to look good shirtless? How DARE you. Somewhere David Hasselhoff is drunkenly eating a hamburger off the floor. The Hollywood Reporter actually got through this entire article without mentioning Hasselhoff once, which has to be a real kick to the groin for the guy who once tore down the Berlin Wall.
Johnson has long been rumored to head up a Baywatch movie, and the oft-shirtless star would seem a perfect fit for the action film that takes place along the perilous shores of Santa Monica.
At one point the action was set to revolve around a series of shark attacks that led the Baywatch team to investigate a drug-smuggling operation. It is unclear what Malen’s take will be for the latest version.Anyway, it’s hard to know what “loosely attached” means at this stage, or whether The Rock would be playing Mitch Buchanan or someone else. All I know is that if they need a Hobie, I’ve got two words for them: Miles. Teller.
Malen has become an in-demand writer after his 2011 Blacklist script Bastards became a hot comedy property. Montecito will produce that film, and Alcon will finance. Malen also wrote the sequel to Bad Teacher for Sony, with Cameron Diaz attached to star. [HollywoodReporter]
