TV directors roundtable: ‘American Primeval,' ‘The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power,' ‘Paradise'
Gold Derby recently hosted a group discussion with four of the industry's leading television directors and producers. They each opened up about when the directing bug originally bit them, what potential dream projects they are hoping to make happen, and which directors they personally look up to. Joining our Meet the Experts: TV Directors roundtable panel are Peter Berg for American Primeval, Charlotte Brändström for The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, and John Requa and Glenn Ficarra for Paradise. Watch the full group panel above. Click each person's name to watch an individual interview. More from GoldDerby Guest acting Emmy odds: See how Kaitlyn Dever, Jeffrey Wright, Martin Scorsese, Bryan Cranston, and other hopefuls stack up 'Paradise' directors John Requa and Glenn Ficarra on the 'chaos' of crafting 'the world coming to an end' 'The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power' director Charlotte Brändström on Gandalf's 'big reveal' and which scene required 'the most prep' "I started off with documentaries, specifically wildlife," Brändström explains about her industry beginnings. "I studied anthropology and then I went through AFI [the American Film Institute] in L.A. I started to do short films and got more and more interested in directing. I wrote and directed my first feature, [titled Stormy Summer]. It was a French drama set during the second World War, a love and betrayal story in the French residence. After I finished that, I got a prize for it and decided I didn't want to do anything else for the rest of my life." She also mentions how she's directed projects in three different languages — French, Swedish, and English. Berg has "so much respect" for Brändström for being able to "speak and direct in three languages, because you speak better English than I do," he jokes. Berg started out by directing plays in high school, but the "key moment" happened when he was acting on Chicago Hope. "The great David E. Kelley did that show back in the day, and we were doing 28 episodes a season ... I was becoming kind of TV-famous as a doctor, Billy Kronk, and people would come up to me and start talking to me like I was that character." When a stranger on an airplane showed him a "horrible, oozing rash" on her elbow, he realized his "legacy" was about to be cemented as a TV doctor. He recalls, "And that, more than anything else, motivated me to take my interest in directing to the next gear." His first movie was Very Bad Things (1998), which Kelley let him out to write and direct. "Meanwhile, Glenn and I have been spending three years on a spec," Requa laughs. "A friend of ours who's an actor is baiting us, will you please just finish the script?!" Ficarra can't get his "mind around" producing so many episodes and shows simultaneously in today's landscape, noting, "We wrote, produced, and directed [Rabbit Hole] on Paramount a couple years ago, and that is the hardest f--king job. It almost killed me. I can't imagine doing more than one show." After making Super 8 movies separately as kids, the duo "met in film school in the '80s," with Ficarra explaining, "I wanted to be a director, and John helped me become a writer." Requa chimes in, "I read Akira Kurosawa's autobiography, and on the back of the book there are 12 hints for young filmmakers, and one of them is 'read the great screenplays, master the craft of screenwriting.' I was like, 'Oh, really? I have to do that?' So, I put down my director pants and I put on my writer pants and I decided I'm gonna figure this out. It took me 20 years! And I still don't think we figured it out." Ficarra recalls, "I don't remember who said it to us. It was like, 'You guys get tired of directors f--king up your scripts. Why don't you go f--k them up on your own?' And so, OK, we did it." This article and video are presented by Netflix, Prime Video, and Disney/Hulu.

New literacy pack aims to boost reading skills for students across California
( — State Superintendent Tony Thurmond and Governor Gavin Newsom announced on Tuesday the release of the California Literacy-Biliteracy Professional Learning Pack. California Department of Education stated that this would be a comprehensive suite of resources designed to improve literacy instruction and support educators across the state in improving student outcomes, especially for younger readers. Defense Intelligence Agency IT Specialist arrested for allegedly sharing classified information 'In California, we know that learning to read is the start of the pathway to success. The Literacy Roadmap highlights our multifaceted approach to improving literacy for California's students, including current and proposed initiatives,' Governor Newsom said. 'When added to our other investments in literacy coaches and reading specialists at high-needs schools and professional development for teachers, we are doubling down on our commitment to ensure no student falls behind in their reading.' The new Professional Learning Pack includes two crucial literacy guidance documents, CDE stated. The first is set to be the California Literacy Roadmap's Literacy Content Blocks for English-Medium Classrooms, which is focused on transitional Kindergarten through Grade Five. The roadmap provides instructional recommendations that educators can use to support students as they develop across all areas of literacy and bitliteracy, according to Newsom. The blocks will reflect an intentional approach to literacy that will promote sequenced initial instruction, appropriate practice and reinforcement, intervention as necessary, and meaningful application in English language arts. 'Literacy is foundational to lifelong learning and academic success,' said Superintendent Thurmond. 'With this release, California takes a significant step forward in providing educators with the tools they need to foster strong literacy and biliteracy development from the earliest years of learning as we move the needle on student achievement, particularly for our youngest readers.' The second document is Preschool through Third Grade Learning Progressions for Language and Literacy Development, which will outline key developmental milestones and offer examples of play-based, inquiry-based instruction to support early literacy in both English and students' home languages, according to CDE. 'In California, we're focused on an approach to literacy that supports evidence-based instruction and high-quality professional learning,' said State Board of Education President Linda Darling-Hammond. 'The Literacy Roadmap and the Literacy Learning Progressions provide teachers with key resources and tools they can use to support every child in learning to read with comprehension, write with expression, and explore the world of books with excitement.' Over $120M in banned cannabis seized by CA task force CDE said that these professional learning tools have been endorsed by a board coalition of experts in literacy and biliteracy instruction, which includes The Reading League, the California Association for Bilingual Education, and Californians Together. Educators are encouraged to incorporate the materials into their summer and school-year professional development plans, said CDE. The full Professional Learning Pack can be found here.

Police were investigating if migrant was set up for threatening Trump well ahead of Noem's tweet
Investigators were working to understand if an undocumented migrant, Ramon Morales-Reyes, had been set up by letters threatening President Donald Trump's life several days before Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem publicized the claim that has turned Morales-Reyes' life upside down. According to Milwaukee Police Department records obtained by CNN, investigators had spoken with Morales-Reyes on May 22 – the day he was arrested – about the potential of someone trying to get him deported. Police began investigating jailhouse phone calls from an individual who allegedly attacked Morales-Reyes. Noem tweeted out her accusation that Morales-Reyes threatened Trump on May 28. Morales-Reyes was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents after they received one letter purportedly from Morales-Reyes threatening Trump, according to the police records. The records say that Morales-Reyes gave ICE officers a handwritten note when he was arrested with his family information. Local investigators compared that note to the letter threatening Trump, and found they didn't match. 'This note depicted completely different handwriting than what is on the letters and envelopes,' the police records say. Shortly after his arrest, a local police investigator asked Morales-Reyes whether he knew of anyone who would want to have him deported. He said he only knew of one person who he had an issue with: the man who allegedly assaulted him in 2023, the records state. On Monday, the Milwaukee police began looking into calls made by that person from prison, where he is being held pending a trial in the case. Then, on Wednesday, Noem claimed on social media that Morales-Reyes sent a letter threatening to kill Trump, all while investigators already believed he had been set up. Despite this, the letter, alongside pictures of Morales-Reyes, were plastered over social media by Noem, DHS and several news outlets. Attorneys and local organizers held a news conference Friday in Milwaukee to call on DHS to issue a correction, adding that the family of the migrant has received threats in wake of the report. 'This false claim has now had the consequence that the family feels that their lives are being threatened,' Christine Neumann-Ortiz, executive director of Voces de la Frontera – an organization that assists undocumented immigrants – said Friday. 'They want his name cleared,' Neumann-Ortiz said, adding that Morales-Reyes' daughter has told the organization her father cannot speak or write in English and only became of aware of the allegations against him after seeing social media posts. 'He's a very humble person. Soft spoken,' Morales-Reyes' attorney Kime Abduli said, adding that he washes dishes for a living and is a hard worker who is focused on supporting several children. 'That's really been his motive in being here' in the US. DHS has not responded to CNN's questions Friday about the police records or the request from Morales-Reyes' attorneys to change the social media posts. On Thursday, in a statement to CNN, a senior DHS official said the investigation 'into the threat is ongoing.' 'Over the course of the investigation, this individual was determined to be in the country illegally and that he had a criminal record. He will remain in custody,' the official said. Prison calls pulled by investigators and detailed in the police records – a process that started on Monday – show how another person, accused of attacking Morales-Reyes, discussed sending letters to government offices, including ICE, and wanted to have him deported prior to the case going to trial in July, preventing Morales-Reyes from ever testifying against him. The person allegedly cut Morales-Reyes with a box cutter before robbing him of his bike in September 2023 and while the case is set to go to trial, it is unclear now if Morales-Reyes will be able to testify or will be deported from the country beforehand. The calls obtained by investigators allegedly detail how the person had others search for government addresses, including the ICE office where the letter was received, and had them mail letters. 'With my armed robbery case, he's an illegal immigrant. Soon as ICE makes contact with him, he's getting deported,' the individual allegedly said on a May 3 call transcribed by police. In a call in early April, the person said that because Trump is now in office it would be easy to have Reyes – whom he described as an 'illegal immigrant' who didn't 'know a lick of English' – deported. 'He outta there,' the person said in a phone call on May 1, according to police records. 'Once he have a run in with any ICE law enforcement. When he came to court he was scared to testify but even if you an illegal immigrant you can still testify but Trump wasn't in office but now Trump came in office, they deported any motherf**ker. They going into court houses, all that.' On other calls, the person allegedly asked for the local ICE office's phone number and tried to have someone set up a three-way call with the office. (That effort was unsuccessful.) The person also allegedly asked for the address for the ICE office and Attorney General Pam Bondi. 'I sent a big manila envelope to mama's house. It either got there yesterday or – so, um, it's either gonna be there tomorrow or it already got there,' the person allegedly said on a phone call in April. 'It's two letters in there that's already written up, I just need you to put them in the mailbox for me. I just need them to be mailed out from the street and not from here.' On a phone call the following day, the person said he would call back using another inmate's pin 'because the DA be listening to my calls,' the alleged assailant said. 'I got a plan,' he said, according to the records. 'I got a hell of a plan.' CNN has reached out to the attorney who represents the man that allegedly attacked Morales-Reyes. As of Friday, there have been no additional charges against the man. The Milwaukee Police Department told CNN it is investigating an identity theft and victim intimidation incident related to the case. Jeffrey J. Altenburg, chief deputy district attorney for the Milwaukee district attorney's office, said in an email Thursday the matter is under investigation. Morales-Reyes is scheduled for a June 4 hearing in front of an immigration judge, his immigration attorney, Cain Oulahan, told CNN. He had applied for a visa meant to protect undocumented migrants who were victims in a crime, allowing them to remain in the US while they are cooperating with authorities, the attorney said. Those visas, however, take years to get approved and the government only allows a limited number. 'It's really sort of up in the air whether he's going to be released or not,' Oulahan said. 'If he had a removal order, he would not be going to court,' Oulahan added. 'The government is not alleging that he was deported previously.' Oulahan said that Morales-Reyes' status in the US 'doesn't change the fact that he is a victim' of a violent crime. 'The District Attorney has certified that he was a victim and is cooperating,' Oulahan said of the DA in Milwaukee, adding that there is a strong desire to clear Morales-Reyes's name from what appears 'to be completely false and fraudulent accusation against him.' The arrest and subsequent publicity in this case, the attorney said, could end up harming undocumented migrants who are crime victims. 'It's going to have a chilling effect if people are not willing to come forward,' Oulahan said.
