Katherine Parkinson joins cast for new Harry Potter TV series
The IT Crowd star will join the HBO TV show of the popular fantasy novel series to play Molly Weasley, the mother of Ron Weasley. Parkinson also starred in the hit Disney+ series Rivals, for which she received a supporting actress Bafta TV nomination for her role as Lizzie Vereker. Joining the cast alongside Parkinson is actor and musician Johnny Flynn, who is best known for playing Mr Knightley in the 2020 film Emma. The 42-year-old will portray antagonist Lucius Malfoy, while The Diary Of A Teenage Girl star Bel Powley will play Petunia Dursley, the aunt of Harry Potter who takes him in and forces him to live under the stairs following his parents' death. Each season of the show will be a faithful adaptation of the Harry Potter books, from author and executive producer JK Rowling. This follows from the popular film adaptations that starred Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint as the protagonists. Actor and comedian Daniel Rigby will also join the cast to play Petunia's husband, Vernon Dursley, while The Crown's Bertie Carvel will portray Cornelius Fudge. School bully Draco Malfoy, who was played in the films by Tom Felton, who is set to reprise the role in the Harry Potter And The Cursed Child play on Broadway, will be portrayed by Lox Pratt. Hogwarts students will include newcomers Leo Earley as Seamus Finnigan, Alessia Leoni as Parvati Patil and Sienna Moosah as Lavender Brown. The young stars cast to play Harry, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley were announced recently. Dominic McLaughlin will take the part of Harry, Arabella Stanton will play Hermione and Alastair Stout is cast as Ron. British actor Paapa Essiedu and US star John Lithgow were also confirmed as Professor Severus Snape and Hogwarts headmaster Professor Albus Dumbledore, respectively. The cast also includes Welsh comedian and actor Paul Whitehouse as the magic-less Hogwarts caretaker Argus Filch and Hot Fuzz actor Nick Frost as the friendly groundskeeper Rubeus Hagrid. Production will begin at Warner Bros Studios Leavesden in summer 2025.

It has Sean Bean but Tudor murder mystery is as slow as week in Tower
** ENGLAND 1536, and the forecast is for a dark and stormy night with a blizzard of introductory captions. King Henry VIII has broken with the Roman Catholic Church; monasteries are resisting reform; crows caw and swoop as a messenger on a horse thunders through the gloom. By 'eck it's grim out there in STV's new historical drama Shardlake. I say 'new' historical drama but admirers of CJ Sansom's novels will know this period murder mystery has been this way before. It first aired on Disney+ in 2024, but after four episodes the show wasn't renewed; it can be grim out there in streaming land, too. Welcome back, then, to a world of mud, candlelight, intrigue, religion, politics and Sean Bean. We'll get to the mighty Bean in a mo, but first, to the titular young Matthew Shardlake, here earning his crust as a Tudor lawyer/detective. Shardlake is disabled, which puts him at a disadvantage in a society that sees difference as a curse. We know what Shardlake thinks of that, and much else, because he has a handy habit of talking out loud to himself. 'Ready Matthew, ready for what this day might bring?' he asks his reflection in the window. The day has brought a summons from Thomas Cromwell (Sean Bean). A commissioner has been murdered in a distant monastery and Cromwell wants Shardlake to have a gander. Since every Sherlock must have his Watson, Cromwell sends young buck John Barak (Anthony Boyle) to accompany Shardlake, much to our hero's annoyance. Mark Rylance rather made Cromwell his own in Wolf Hall, so all power to Bean's elbow for taking on the gig. His Cromwell is more swaggering than quietly sinister. As for accent, Bean goes for a sort of posh Yorkshire compared to Rylance's soft, indeterminate burr. Either way, these are not men to be messed with. The monastery lot are less than delighted to see the pair, with one brother (Paul Kaye) going so far as to call Cromwell the Antichrist, which rather puts a kink in dinner. But Shardlake has his orders and is determined to stick around and solve the case. What his detractors don't realise is the power Shardlake derives from his disability. 'It is I and I embrace it,' he says in another one-to-one with himself. 'It's my disguise.' It also gives him empathy with society's weak and vulnerable, which in this case means women and a young lad being bullied mercilessly by a senior monk. The attitudes toward disability, the attempts at witty asides, the empathy, makes Shardlake a modern affair, presumably to widen its appeal. But the more talk, less action approach also makes the hour seem as slow as a week in the Tower. Shardlake also wants to have its period cake and eat it, which means lots of gloomy scenes where you can barely make out what is going on. There is always Sean Bean, however, even if the glimpses of him so far have been few and far between, and when he is on screen you half expect him to start banging on about a certain brand of tea. You don't get that with Mark Rylance.

Lilo & Stitch live-action director responds to backlash after making shock change to ending
The director of Disney's Lilo & Stitch remake has broken his silence after a major change to the film's beloved ending left fans outraged. Dean Fleischer Camp, 41, came under fire after altering the emotional finale of the 2002 animated classic for the live-action remake, which sparked claims that the new version 'misses the point' of the original. At the end of the updated live-action film, Lilo's older sister Nani gives custody of the youngster to her neighbor and leaves Hawaii to go to college. She leaves to pursue her dream of studying marine biology at UC San Diego and hands over Lilo's care to a family friend named Tūtū. For fans who grew up with the original, the change came as a shock. Many accused Disney of ruining the story's iconic message: Ohana means family, and family means no one gets left behind. Now, Camp has addressed criticism in an interview with Variety, saying: 'I've had some time to think about this.' 'I do think that a fair amount of the people who are dunking on that premise have not actually seen the movie, and they write me stuff that is clearly wrong,' Camp told the outlet. At the end of the updated live-action film, Lilo's older sister Nani gives custody of the youngster to her neighbor and leaves Hawaii to go to college 'They get the beats of the story wrong. But when you see [it], it doesn't feel that way at all, and you see the intent of the actual filmmaking.' Despite fans arguing the story's message was lost, Camp said the goal of the ending was to 'expand the meaning.' 'We wanted to expand the meaning of ohana, and ground it in traditional Hawaiian values of collectivism, extended family and community,' he detailed. 'Chris [Sanders, a co-creator of the original film and collaborator on the new one], who's Hawaiian, made a really important observation about the original early on in our discussions. 'He didn't buy that the two orphan sisters would just be left to fend for themselves. 'He said, "Neighbors, church groups, aunties and uncles, all these people would step in. That's just the Hawaii I know and grew up in."' Camp added: 'That led him to create this character of Tutu, and she ultimately takes Lilo in as hanai, which is this culturally specific term and tradition that is a form of informal adoption. 'It isn't about blood or paperwork, but love and responsibility for the greater good and for one's community.' The director argued that many Hawaiians who had seen the film enjoyed what they did with the movie. 'A lot of Hawaiians who've seen the film have picked up on that reference to hanai, and they love that,' said Camp. 'It's this uniquely Hawaiian answer to the question of who shows up when things fall apart, and that idea of informal adoption. 'It shows the broader community's willingness to sacrifice and do whatever it takes for these girls and for their ohana.' However, he said he is still aware of the many viewers who are unhappy with the conclusion. 'I think you can't satisfy everyone with these remakes,' Camp argued. 'You are treading on hallowed ground when you make one of these because these are films people grew up with, and I'm one of them, and I totally understand it.' Camp continued, saying he and the team 'didn't want to just restage the beats of the original film.' 'We wanted to tell a story that's honest about what it means to lose everything and still find a way forward,' he said. 'People do get left behind, like what Nani says, this is, and it's incumbent upon the community to make sure that they aren't forgotten.' In May, before the movie hit theaters, users also fumed after learning Captain Gantu - the main antagonist in the 2002 cartoon - was not going to appear in the live-action remake. Upon hearing this news, many outraged fans claimed they were going to boycott the remake. In addition, fans were upset over the news that alien Pleakley wouldn't dress like a woman in the live-action movie. Throughout their journey to try to get Stitch back, Jumba and Pleakley wear disguises in an attempt to try to look human and blend in with everyone around them - and in the original, Pleakley, who is male, opts to wear a dress, and women's wig. But in the new version, that doesn't happen. Camp previously explained that Jumba and Pleakley, played by Zach Galifianakis and Billy Magnussen respectively, don't put human clothes and wigs on at all in the live-action remake, so there actually wasn't a chance for Pleakley to dress up as a woman like he did in the animated flick. Instead, he explained that they use technology to morph themselves into humans. He added that he and his team did 'some tests and some character design work' to try to make Jumba and Pleakley look like they did in the original, but it just didn't work. Ultimately, he said they decided it was 'a bridge too far' and that it didn't translate well into live-action. 'The humor of them walking around Hawaii dressed in these terrible disguises where Pleakley still has one eyeball, it's a little harder to buy in live action,' he said. The director added that 'budgets' also played a part in the decision. 'If you have Jumba and Pleakley in alien disguises, then you're going to have to shortchange how much development work you can do on Stitch and these other elements,' he continued. 'It's not that they're aliens in the movie. You definitely see Jumba and Pleakley in their alien forms through a lot of the movie, but they are in human skin suits for part of it.'
