'The series follows Rudy Baylor, who is fresh out of law school, goes head-to-head with courtroom lion Leo Drummond as well as his law school girlfriend, Sarah.

The video introduces Dune: Prophecy's Milo Callaghan as Rudy Baylor, who gets fired from his first law firm after he is unable to control his emotions. Because of this, he finds himself working at an unconventional law firm that represents normal people against powerful figures. In the 1997 adaptation, the main character was portrayed by Oscar winner Matt Damon.
The Rainmaker is written and executive produced by showrunner Michael Seitzman, based on the best-selling novel by John Grisham. The cast also includes John Slattery, P.J. Byrne, Dan Fogler, Wade Briggs, and Robyn Cara. It is executive produced by Michael Seitzman, Jason Richman, John Grisham, David Gernert, and Jason Blum.
'The Rainmaker began as John Grisham's fastest-selling novel, then became a feature film, and now, it's a TV series,' Seitzman said in a statement. 'What is it about this story that keeps drawing people in? Maybe it's the David-and-Goliath legal thriller, the dangerous romance or the coming-of-age story. For me, above all, it's the characters. They jumped off the page in John's book and were a joy to expand upon in our show. Not to mention, Milo Callaghan, who plays Rudy Baylor, is your next crush.'

Jane Larkworthy, 62, a Top Magazine Writer and Editor on Beauty, Dies
Jane Larkworthy, a veteran beauty writer and top-ranking editor during 'The Devil Wears Prada' era of influential print fashion magazines, died on Wednesday at her home in New Marlborough, Mass. She was 62. Her sister, Kate Larkworthy, said the cause was breast cancer. Ms. Larkworthy's work began appearing in magazines in the mid-1980s; her first job was at Glamour, followed by a stint at Mademoiselle. By 1997, she was the beauty director of Jane, a popular magazine aimed at young women. (It was named after another journalist Jane — Jane Pratt.) Later moving on to W magazine, Ms. Larkworthy became its executive beauty director. She was active online, too, writing for websites like Air Mail and New York magazine's The Cut, where for a time she was beauty editor at large. Ms. Larkworthy looked the part of an editor at a glossy fashion magazine, the kind satirized in the 2006 movie 'The Devil Wears Prada,' with her straight long hair in a refined shade of celebrity-colorist-applied straw and, more often than not, polished outfits that might have well brought Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy to mind. But while her fields of expertise might seem superficial, her views on fillers and face creams were infused with industry knowledge and a large dose of well-grounded skepticism.

When the curtain rises in the John F. Kennedy Center Opera House for a performance of 'Les Misérables' this week, President Trump is scheduled to be surrounded by supporters who have paid up to $2 million to watch the musical with him. A coup de théâtre earlier this year put the president and his deputies in charge of programming, fundraising and staff at the famous cultural center. Now, a president who skipped Kennedy Center performances during his first term will stride into an institution he has bent to his will.

Hundreds of foodies flock to South Philadelphia to support Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation
Hundreds of foodies flock to Great Chefs Event in South Philly to support Alex's Lemonade Stand Hundreds of foodies flock to Great Chefs Event in South Philly to support Alex's Lemonade Stand Hundreds of foodies flock to Great Chefs Event in South Philly to support Alex's Lemonade Stand Over 700 food lovers gathered at the Navy Yard on Saturday for a sold-out culinary event with a mission: fighting childhood cancer. The Great Chefs Event, benefiting the Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation, featured more than 40 top chefs from 16 states and Canada. The annual fundraiser supports pediatric cancer research and resources for families affected by the disease. CBS Philadelphia's Jim Donovan and Wakisha Bailey emceed the event. Chef Cesare Casella, a New York restaurateur originally from Tuscany, Italy, has participated in the event for decades. "I'm still coming because it's a great occasion, it's a great organization, he said. "I am very happy to be part." Jeff Michaud, of Philadelphia's Osteria, is another longtime supporter. "Most of these chefs I've known for 20 years. We've seen each other grow up in the business — we've helped each other in the business," Michaud said. "It's such a small knit community, they're all like brothers and sisters." The event honors the legacy of Alex Scott, who raised millions for cancer research through lemonade stands before passing away in 2004. Last year alone, organizers say the Great Chefs Event raised over $550,000. Funds are raised through ticket sales, merchandise, a raffle and a silent auction. Among the auction donors this year were Kristen Kidd and David Weir. The couple co-owns a Montgomery County photo studio, Lux Summit, and they donated a photo session. "Cancer research is so important," Kidd said. Weir, who receives blood transfusions every three weeks for a rare condition called Diamond-Blackfan anemia, said he once shared a treatment space with Alex Scott. "When I was a child, I actually used to get blood transfusions next to Alex when she was getting her chemotherapy," he said. Other families came to teach their children the value of compassion. "Adults can get this disease, kids can get it and it affects everyone differently," said Elizabeth Thomas, who came with her husband and two young daughters. "That's why, since we are so lucky to be healthy, we should be raising the money to help find a cure."
