Nancy Meyers Reacts With Surprise to News of 'The Holiday' Limited Series
THE RUNDOWN On August 1, it was reported that Nancy Meyers's 2006 film The Holiday was in development as a limited series for Apple TV+ by Deadline. But it looks like Meyers had no idea about the new show and was quick to comment on the production in an Instagram Story. Sharing a screenshot of a report on The Holiday series, Meyers wrote over it, 'News to me. Imagine my surprise when I opened Instagram and this was the first post I saw.' Here's everything we know about the project so far. In the original film, two women trade homes in the U.K. countryside and Los Angeles after struggling with their personal lives. Amanda Woods is a Hollywood trailer editor who ends her engagement and Iris is a newspaper columnist stuck in a rut. After trading spaces, Amanda meets Iris's widower brother, Graham, and surprises herself by reconnecting emotionally to love. Iris meets Amanda's neighbor, Arthur, a forgotten Hollywood icon, and then meets a film composer named Miles; both men help her transform. The series will likely be some version of Meyers's original story, keeping 'the setup of the movie about a single American and single British woman living very different lives who swap their houses for the holidays and find love in the process.' The original cast included Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Jude Law, and Jack Black, but Deadline stated the show will feature 'new characters,' and thus new actors. But maybe we can hope for a cameo? Krissie Ducker is serving as the writer and executive producer for The Holiday series, along with comedian Rob Delaney as a consultant on the script. Not yet. This post will be updated.

Michelle Obama Breaks Down Her Favorite Bravo Shows: 'I Watch It All'
The former first lady said she finds reality television "fascinating"NEED TO KNOW The Wednesday, July 30, edition of the IMO with Michelle Obama & Craig Robinson podcast had Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers as guests During the episode, Obama discussed her love of reality television The former first lady has a particular interest in Bravo programmingMichelle Obama likes keeping things real, especially when it comes to what she watches on television. The former first lady candidly opened up about her love for Bravo programming on the Wednesday, July 30, edition of the IMO with Michelle Obama & Craig Robinson podcast, during which she had Las Culturistas hosts Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers as guests. According to Obama, "culture is king" and she likes to "educate" her brother Robinson and her husband Barack Obama about it. "The truth is that they razz me about my love of reality TV and the Real Housewives. I watch it all — all of it," she said, noting that she has a particular interest in the "New York gen babies." "I watched the first two episodes, and I'm just like, 'Oh, they're starting the babies off early,' " she said, referring to Next Gen NYC, which features the children of Bravo stars, as well as a group of newcomers. Rogers responded that "They're really like the princes and princesses of Bravo, now seeing if they're worth their salt when the camera's fixed on them," to which Obama said, "Right." After Yang said that it can be "really tricky to watch," Obama agreed, saying, "It is, but it's juice. It's tea." The PEOPLE Puzzler crossword is here! How quickly can you solve it? Play now! She proceeded by explaining why reality television is a "sociological study," and the "same thing" as sports. 'There's drama in sports. If I listen to ESPN for an hour, it's like watching The Real Housewives of Atlanta. You know? It's the same drama, and they're yelling at each other, and they don't get along," she said. "I mean, Stephen A. Smith, he's just like every other talk show host," continued Obama. 'I'm like, 'What's the difference?' It's just sociological drama. The fact that people over seasons of working together still can't get along, they still have the same arguments — and it's not just women, but this happens in sports, too." Obama admitted that she finds it fascinating, adding, " 'Why do you keep going to dinner together? It never ends well. And don't ever vacation with her, ever again, ever. And why can't we figure out this room thing?' "Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories.
