Yes, You Have Seen Carrie's Hot Gardener Before
The new season sees Carrie move into an incredible Gramercy Park West townhouse, leading to a host of encounters with new men. One of these is a hot new gardener, Adam (played by Logan Marshall-Green), whose jokey demeanour becomes a fun contrast to Carrie's grumpy downstairs neighbour. But where have we seen Logan before?
Logan Marshall-Green is an actor, who is best known for his role as Trey Atwood in the second and third season of the OC. Logan was born in Charleston, South Carolina, and raised in Rhode Island. He went to the National Theater Institute in Waterford, Connecticut before graduating with a Master's in Fine Arts from New York University's Graduate Acting Program at the Tisch School of the Arts.

Logan has often been compared to fellow actor Tom Hardy. While he has acknowledged the similarities between them, he has previously pointed out he actually has a twin-brother called Taylor. He told Elle.com: 'I'd be honoured to be in the same sentence as Tom Hardy. I've been a twin since the day I was born - fraternal, but we look a lot alike - so I've already been mixed up with another man my entire life.'
Logan Marshall-Green was born on 1 November 1976, making him 48-years-old.
As well as his role in the OC, Logan has had roles in other TV shows including Traveler, Dark Blue, The Defeated and Quarry. He's also had starring roles in the films Devil, Prometheus, The Invitation, Spider-Man: Homecoming, and Upgrade.

Fans were excited that Logan was starring in AJLT last year, after he was pictured on set with Sarah Jessica Parker. One fan account re-shared a picture that shows Logan cuddling Carrie's cat, with the caption: 'Oh my word, my heart!!!'
At the time, it was unclear what role Logan would play, and some people speculated he could be a potential love interest of Carrie's. However, now we know he is Carrie's gardener, who has a penchant for silly T-shirts and a hilarious - and slightly sassy - personality.

'Alien: Earth is the best the franchise has been in years - but it has one glaring issue'
The Alien franchise returns to its roots with a gruesome new prequel set two years before the original film, but it doesn't quite surpass the 1979 classic Alien: Earth has finally arrived with two episodes dropping this week on Disney+ - FX on Hulu if you're in the States - and countless fans of the franchise will be eager to find out how it stands up to the rest of the franchise. Boasting incredible production values, an incredible cast of established stars and newcomers, and Fargo showrunner Noah Hawley leading the charge, everything is in place for the new prequel to become a monster success. Personally, I'm a huge fan of the Alien franchise, having watched the first two films multiple times, even once getting the chance to see Ridley Scott's 1979 masterpiece that started it all on the big screen. I even enjoy the much-maligned prequel Prometheus, which I've watched maybe five times - that's how much I love this gooey, grotesque and mystifying sci-fi epic. Fellow Alien aficionados will be pleased to know that the critical response to the new series has been stellar so far, currently scoring 93 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. I'm pretty much in agreement with the consensus - the first six episodes of the eight-part season I was able to watch are as propulsive and gory as any Alien instalment should be, while veering off into some eerie new directions I wasn't expecting that have the makings of a stunning finale and, hopefully, multiple future outings. However, there's just one niggling problem I'm having with the series so far that I'm praying gets fixed by the finale, or else is tackled in a potential second season. The iconic body horror saga has already had its fair share of ups and downs over the years, the first wobble occurring with the divisive Alien 3 in 1992, which was packed with interesting ideas and launched the career of auteur filmmaker David Fincher but was overall a bit of a mess. This was followed by the increasingly woeful Alien: Resurrection and the two barely connected Alien vs. Predator films before Scott himself returned to the franchise for the divisive prequels Prometheus and Alien: Covenant. Both underrated, in my opinion, though again a little too overstuffed with existential ramblings and diversions from the original series that put off most casual audiences. Then came last year's Alien: Romulus, a sort of greatest hits of the Alien franchise which got things back on track but was ultimately far too beholden to Scott's masterpiece to offer anything fresh and exciting. With Hawley's take on the franchise, you still get the mash-up of all the best the franchise has to offer, though with far less of Romulus's nostalgic pandering and far more courage to remix and reinvent Alien's most recognisable iconography. Much like the original film, which is still the benchmark for the franchise, Earth is more concerned with ethical conundrums and biological dread than cheap kills. The grisly horror is still here in spades, but, after a cataclysmic opening two-parter, the pacing slows just enough to let Hawley's skin-crawling exploration of biology and human psychology breathe. Taking the series' familiar themes of artificial intelligence one step further by questioning the legitimacy of transferring human consciousness, exemplified by Sydney Chandler's literally child-like 'Wendy', this is far more compelling than Romulus' heroic android Andy (played by David Jonsson), who was largely present to tell bad jokes and recycle old one-liners. But fans are also coming for the 'Alien' itself, the iconic Xenomorph that has haunted spaceships for over four decades. And it's my regret to inform you that this is the show's biggest downfall. Although the creature is as terrifying as ever, thankfully brought to life primarily with a practical costume and in-camera trickery, its role in the first season has been somewhat muted and it doesn't quite feel like the unstoppable force from previous entries. Here, the Xenomorphs can be incapacitated more easily than ever before, by both humans and synthetics, rendering them some of the least threatening foes in the franchise yet. To counter this, a number of brand new lifeforms never seen before in the Alien universe have been introduced, but these are also a little hit-or-miss. In contrast to the Xenomorph, they're disappointingly reliant on CGI and their own methods of tearing humans apart from the inside aren't nearly as memorable as the now iconic facehugger-to-chestburster lifecycle that has since become ubiquitous. Hopefully Hawley has something up his sleeve to remedy this but, until we get to see those final two episodes, so far Alien: Earth is still a fantastic watch, even if it's lacking a little bite. Alien: Earth continues Wednesdays on Disney+. For a limited time only, witness the first stage of the life cycle of the Xenomorph up close with a thrilling new display at London's Natural History Museum. Visitors can touch real pieces of the solar system at the Museum's blockbuster exhibition, Space: Could Life Exist Beyond Earth?, and discover more about one of pop culture's most iconic and frightening creatures just by the entrance until Friday, 22nd August.

You can now binge all episodes of 'wall-to-wall action' Amazon spy thriller
Just days after Amazon Prime Video dropped The Assassin, which has been climbing up the streaming chart ever since, they have something else for TV watchers. All six episodes of Butterfly have now arrived, offering another tale of international espionage. Set in the bustling South Korean city of Seoul, the drama stars Daniel Dae Kim (of Lost and The Good Doctor) as the semi-retired gun-for-hire David Jung. The show kicks off in a high-end hotel, where a visiting politician is under surveillance for a bold assassination attempt (think Day of the Jackal vibe) which is being organised by a shady and deep-pocketed private intelligence agency. The young assassin on the job is Rebecca, played by Reina Hardesty. Next on her kill list is the rogue and not-really-retired agent David, who's highly trained in field work. Adapted from a graphic novel by Arash Amel and Marguerite Bennett, it turns out that David and Rebecca are known to one another. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video The former intelligence agent is on a mission to protect his wife and daughter, while also reckoning with an incident from his past that comes back to haunt him. Ominous stuff. 'A central question in our entire season is, 'Who can you trust?',' Kim told USA Today. 'And just because they're family, can you trust them? The ending to our season really speaks to that question.' Kim was an executive producer on the show and has already teased what they could tackle with a second season, saying there's 'a lot more story to tell, and there are places for all of our characters to go that I find really intriguing'. He added: 'So let's hope people like it enough to make that happen.' More Trending So far so good on that front. The show has totted up a 71% rating on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, with several positive write-ups to its name. Collider praised the 'wall-to-wall action' in the show, while The AV Club wrote: 'With a tight focus and impressive performances, Butterfly's basic spycraft story feels both elevated and entertaining.' TV Guide described the show as 'slick' and a 'solid spy series'. However, not every review can be glowing and The Hollywood Reporter bemoaned the show 'needed more time in the chrysalis'.

James Cameron struggling to write 'new Terminator film' over stark sci-fi fears
James Cameron has revealed that he is having a 'hard time' writing the new Terminator movie because of 'stark' real-world events. The iconic director is behind some of the biggest movies in history, including Avatar, Titanic, Aliens and the Terminator franchise. However, during an appearance on CNN, the 70-year-old explained that he is currently penning 'a new Terminator story', but found himself struggling when it comes to the technology aspect of the plot. 'I'm at a point right now where I have a hard time writing science fiction,' he declared. 'I'm tasked with writing a new Terminator story. I've been unable to get started on that very far, because I don't know what to say that won't get overtaken by real events. 'We are living in a science fiction age right now, and the only way out is through, by using our intelligence, by using our curiosity, by using our command of technology, but also by really understanding the stark probabilities that we face.' The Terminator first hit the screen in 1984, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger as the titular cyborg assassin, sent from the future to kill Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton), stopping her from giving birth to the man who would go on to save humankind. The film currently commands an impressive 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes, and has gone down as one of the best movies of all time. There were a further five movies in the franchise – Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, Terminator Salvation, Terminator Genisys, and Terminator: Dark Fate. In 2022, James revealed that there had been 'discussions' about a possible seventh film, and suggested that the plot would focus less on the rogue robots. 'If I were to do another Terminator film and maybe try to launch that franchise again, which is in discussion, but nothing has been decided, I would make it much more about the AI side of it than bad robots gone crazy,' he announced on the Smartless podcast. He directed and co-wrote the first two instalments in the franchise, but took a back seat on the other movies before returning to co-write and produce 2019's Dark Fate. However, the flick – which saw the return of Arnie and Linda – bombed at the box office and didn't go down well with fans. Unpacking the reception in a candid interview with Deadline in 2022, the filmmaker said: 'I'm actually reasonably happy with the film. 'I think what happened is I think the movie could have survived having Linda in it, I think it could have survived having Arnold in it. More Trending 'But when you put Linda and Arnold in it and then, you know, she's 60-something, he's 70-something, all of a sudden it wasn't your Terminator movie, it wasn't even your dad's Terminator movie, it was your granddad's Terminator movie. 'And we didn't see that. We loved it, we thought it was cool, you know, that we were making this sort of direct sequel to a movie that came out in 1991. And young moviegoing audiences weren't born. They wouldn't even have been born for another 10 years. 'So, it was just our own myopia. We got a little high on our own supply, and I think that's the lesson there.' Got a story?
