King of the Hill honors voice actor who was gunned down by neighbor

Two months after his death, King of the Hill voice actor Jonathan Joss was honored in the final episode of the adult animated sitcom revival, which started streaming Monday on Hulu/Disney+. Episode 10 titled 'The Sound Investment' concluded with a title card of the Texan native - who was gunned down at age 59 on June 1 - which read: 'In Loving Memory... Jonathan Joss.' Jonathan voiced musician and healer John Redcorn on the formerly Fox show from seasons 2-13 spanning 1997-2010. And, in the long-awaited revival, Hank & Peggy Hill (Mike Judge and Kathy Najimy) invested in his new business venture, John Redcorn's Red Corns. 'It was the episode that featured him the most,' showrunner Saladin K. Patterson explained to THR on Monday. 'It also felt fitting because his tragic passing was so recent and the finale was the last episode produced. If there are future seasons, we will choose a way to address the Dale/Nancy/Redcorn love triangle that highlights the compassion that Jonathan always brought to the character.' Fans were mostly unhappy with the King of the Hill executive producers' previous tribute to Joss on June 3, which they claim sounded like a 'statement you make when someone dies of a heart attack not a homophobic murder.' The charismatic actor of Native descent had crashed the ATX TV Festival reunion on May 30 and briefly rambled during the Q&A - stunning co-creators Mike Judge and Greg Daniels as well as actors Pamela Adlon, Lauren Tom, and Toby Huss into silence. At the end of episode seven, the producers shared a tribute to Johnny Hardwick who was able to reprise his voiceover role as Dale Gribble for six episodes of the revival before his mysterious passing, at age 64, in a bathtub two years ago. 'Dale's character was too important a character to what we were currently doing to let the character go away,' Patterson admitted to THR. 'What felt the most respectful and also creatively strong was taking Toby [Huss], who was a friend of Johnny's, who was like a brother to Johnny in certain ways, and having him [take over the character] in a way that would pay homage to Johnny.' The King of the Hill revival - set 15 years later - currently has a 'certified fresh' 100% critic approval rating (out of 29 reviews) and a 90% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.

The 56-year-old suspect is claiming self-defense and his attorney Nico LaHood told KSAT on June 24 that his client is 'innocent' and 'has the support of their neighbors.'

Titanic producer reveals Matthew McConaughey's excruciating audition gaffe that cost him the part of Jack

Matthew McConaughey lost the part of Jack Dawson in Titanic after refusing director James Cameron's request to ditch his southern accent during his audition, it is claimed. Titanic producer Jon Landau finally revealed what cost McConaughey the plum part in his upcoming memoir, set to be published posthumously in November after he died of cancer in July 2024 aged 63. McConaughey was brought in to perform a scene with Kate Winslet and explore their on-screen chemistry, according to a teaser obtained by Matthew Belloni's What I'm Hearing newsletter. The pair's connection was undeniable during the 1996 meeting, with Landau writing how 'Kate was taken with Matthew, his presence and charm'. But Texas-born McConaughey spoke with a 'drawl' during the scene which did not resonate with director James Cameron, the producer revealed in his memoir. 'That's great,' Cameron told the actors after their initial screen test. 'Now let's try it a different way.' McConaughey reportedly declined, saying: 'No. That was pretty good. Thanks.' 'Let's just say, that was it for McConaughey,' Landau wrote, suggesting that the actor's refusal to run the scene again during the audition cost him the role. But Winslet would have starred alongside Matthew McConaughey (pictured in 1996 - the year of his audition) in the $2billion blockbuster had the actor not refused Cameron's direction during an audition The fates of the lovers Rose and Jack, coupled with heart-stopping action scenes as the boat sinks, caught the imagination of cinema-goers everywhere. Titanic became one of the most successful movies of all time, earning $2.2billion, and undeniably propelled Winslet and DiCaprio to global stardom. McConaughey's career was already on the rise after he got his big break by landing a supporting role alongside Woody Harrison in the 1993 film Dazed and Confused. His performance in A Time to Kill (1996) solidified his role as a leading man, but it wasn't until the 2010s that McConaughey arguably reached superstar status. He became a household name after success in films like True Detective, Interstellar, and Dallas Buyers Club, which saw him win the Academy Award for Best Actor. While no one can say for sure what Titanic would be like with McConaughey as the leading man, it is likely the actor would have skyrocketed to fame just as DiCaprio did. DiCaprio starred in various films before booking Titanic, including Romeo and Juliet, Total Eclipse, The Basketball Diaries and the tv series, Growing Pains. He earned his first Oscar nomination in 1994 for What's Eating Gilbert Grape when he was just 20 years old. DiCaprio was then nominated for Best Actor (The Aviator) in 2004. He later earned a Best Actor nod for Blood Diamond in 2006 and for the Wolf Of Wall Street in 2013. He finally won his first Oscar in 2014 for his performance in The Revenant. Despite his success in Titanic, DiCaprio performance in the film did not see him nominated for an Academy Award. Titanic was nominated for 14 Oscars in 1998 and won 11 - a feat never surpassed and equaled only by two other films: Ben-Hur (1959) and The Lord Of The Rings: The Return of the King (2003). The film held the record for ticket sales for decades until another movie by Cameron, 'Avatar,' took the spot as the number one grossing movie with $2.9 billion at the box office. Landau was the recipient of his first Academy Award when Titanic won Best Picture. His memoir, titled The Bigger Picture: My Blockbuster Life & Lessons Learned Along The Way, will be posthumously released by the Disney Publishing imprint on November 4. The book sees Landau share behind-the-scenes stories about some of his greatest works in Hollywood, including Titanic, Avatar (2009) and Avatar: The Way of Water (2022), all of which were directed by Cameron.

‘Constantly being reimagined': celebrating American art from the 1900s to the 1980s

With 'Untitled' (America), The Whitney celebrates 10 years in its new space and offers visitors a statement on what the museum is all about. Combing the institution's archives, it brings together 80 years of American art, from the turn of the century up through the 1980s. As art historian and Whitney chief curator, Kim Conaty, was hard at work curating 'Untitled' (America), she envisioned the Whitney as a place of refuge and nourishment for artists who have furnished new ways of seeing and new historical narratives. 'When I think of the very brave work of artists over decades,' she said via video interview. 'I'm excited by how it's possible for us now through their work to see the questions they have put forth, the histories they have made visible. We need to give our support to those artists who have done that hard thinking and helped reveal or made visible our history and helped us see new futures.' In envisioning exactly what the Whitney is all about, Conaty was particularly inspired by a quote from Cuban-American artist Félix González-Torres, which reads in part: 'America has always been an unattainable dream, a place to dream about … The America that I now know is still a place of light, a place of opportunities, of risks, of justice, of racism, of injustice, of hunger and excess, of pleasure and growth. Democracy is a constant job, a collective dedication.' González-Torres's 1994 piece 'Untitled' (America) figures prominently in the show. The piece, which consists of 12 individual strings of 42 lightbulbs each, had long been displayed in the Whitney's stairwell, but for this show it sits in a window on the museum's western face, creating a kind of connection to the world beyond the galleries. 'I liked the openness, the ambiguity, and the kind of poetry that is the challenge of González-Torres's work,' said Conaty. 'His decision to use the word 'America' felt like it was in keeping with a kind of questioning that many people are having now. While we were planing the show, for some reason I kept thinking about that specific work. It just feels emblematic about what it is to be a museum of American art – evocative, abstract in a way, everyday in a way.' Opposite Gonzalez-Torres's piece, 'Untitled' (America) is headed by five major works of art that greet visitors when they step off the elevator and onto the museum's seventh floor: Jasper Johns's sculptural, landmark piece Three Flags, Black portraitist Barkley Hendricks's bravura work Steve, Cherokee landscape artist Kay WalkingStick's ephemeral April Contemplating May, Georgia O'Keeffe's conceptual Summer Days, and Alma Thomas's sci-fi abstraction Mars Dust. Taken together, the five works make for a fascinating suite that boldly states the many sides of the United States – as well as the many artistic movements within it – that 'Untitled' (America) seeks to foster conversations around. A strength of the show is how effortlessly it fosters surprising dialogues between seemingly disparate pieces. Discussing the five openers, Conaty was enraptured by each for the different artistic pathways they opened up, but also saw the grouping of them as more than the sum of the individual parts. 'They all have a way of opening up different approaches to art-making,' she observed. 'Part of the selection was how they looked together –visually, how do these paintings work together in an associative way? You also have to imagine what are the stories behind these works.' Fostering conversations between the pieces was high on Conaty's mind as she curated the show. She opted for a more free-flowing experience in which audiences are able to chart their own path through the exhibition, carefully placing and shaping the show's walls to encourage free associations and connections. 'We designed it so that all in one view you see a particular work, but you also see the work far behind it,' she explained. 'We were thinking about sightlines that allow visitors make visual connections between works. That's where you find a lot of serendipity – when you're working in a much more open architecture, you see so much, you take in so much. When you're actually installing the work, you realize, oh this is kind of fascinating.' One of the new acquisitions highlighted in the show is Native American artist Fritz Scholder's striking 1970 work Massacre at Wounded Knee II. Tending toward abstraction, the great majority of the painting is done in off-white, with a thin, undulating band in green at the top and two abstracted figures in stark red, gesturing to the many murders that the painting represents. The title refers to an 1890 incident in which well over 300 Lakota people were either killed or wounded by the US military as part of a long-term campaign to seize the Lakota people's lands. 'It depicts a site of trauma, as well as a history that's undertold or told differently in history books,' said Conaty. 'It looks like an abstraction but is actually based on historical documentary photographs. Looking at it, you get a sense of violence, a haunted landscape.' Conaty connected Scholder's work to a grouping of Black artist Jacob Lawrence's War Series, for which he received a Guggenheim, and which he made after completing service as part of the Coast Guard during the second world war. The 14 works, which blend aspects of figuration and abstraction, document various aspects of the experience of fighting in the military, including shipping out, being on leave, battling for a beachhead, and victory. 'Together, Lawrence's and Scholder's works tie into histories of the American landscape, histories that are tied in with trauma,' said Conaty. 'The imagine alternatives to more heroic American narratives.' For Conaty, combing through the Whitney's huge holdings was an overwhelming experience. She described the process of curating 'Untitled' (America) as one of constant discovery, as well as a object lesson in the power of confronting great works of art. 'There were so many works that we ended up falling in love with that weren't necessarily on the a list of our plans,' she said. 'You learn about the real power of some of these objects you that get used to seeing things in PowerPoint slides. When you're in front of the actual thing, it's just like that sort of powerful, visceral feeling.' Ultimately, Conaty hopes that 'Untitled' (America) will offer audiences a sense of inquiry, inspiring many to continue the work of renewal that is key to America's capacity to thrive, improve itself, and weather dark political storms. 'I like that we allow that idea of America to have a subtle question mark,' she remarked. 'It's something that's constantly being rethought, reimagined.' 'Untitled' (America) is on display now at the Whitney Museum of American Art
