"What Lies Beneath" TV Series in Works
Yara Sameh Robert Zemeckis' 2000 supernatural horror thriller "What Lies Beneath," starring Harrison Ford and Michelle Pfeiffer, is heading to the small screen as the latest Hollywood blockbuster to be getting a TV adaptation. The synopsis for the movie reads: "It had been a year since Dr. Norman Spencer (Harrison Ford) betrayed his beautiful wife Claire (Michelle Pfeiffer). But with Claire oblivious to the truth, Norman's life and marriage seem so perfect that when Claire tells him of hearing mysterious voices and seeing a young woman's image in their home, he dismisses her terror as delusion. Claire moves closer to the truth and it becomes clear that this apparition will not be dismissed, and has come back for Dr. Spencer and his beautiful wife." Mark Johnson, who is well known for producing features like The Chronicles of Narnia trilogy, Rain Man, The Notebook and more, said the property as one of several projects being considered for TV adaptation. We're very excited about the idea of maybe doing a television show — I'm not sure I should say this but I'm going to — our movie What Lies Beneath, that could lend itself to a very good, perhaps limited, perhaps not, TV show," he told Deadline . Johnson has been part of the production team for some of AMC's biggest hits over the last two decades, and that doesn't seem about to change as he has recently penned a renewal of his first-look deal with AMC Studios. Currently, one of his biggest roles is overseeing the Anne Rice universe that has delivered "Interview With the Vampire" and "The Mayfair Witches", and even as he turns 80 this year, the producer has no plans to step away from making shows he loves. He added in his interview: 'Why wouldn't I be at AMC? They truly celebrate the story. You look at the success they've had, it is still very much the leader and the benchmark: good writing, good characters and good television.' read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan

37 Summer Bedroom Makeover Products You'll Love
A roll of scented liners that'll turn your underwear drawer into your very own version of the wardrobe in The Chronicles of Narnia — transporting you into fantastical fae gardens every time you reach for a pair of briefs. A floor mattress you can use all on its own. Eliminate bland bed frames from your life and create an open, organic vibe in your bedroom with this beautiful bedding set instead. A carved cabinet sure to give your bedroom its own main character energy, when even your shoe storage has eye-catching craftsman details. A bed canopy that'll be a seasonally stunning way to replace the winter twinkle lights in your bedroom, making it feel airy and bright now that the summer weather has you opening up your windows again. A ceramic incense dish for folks with limited bedside dresser space who know they've gotta decorate with items that are equal parts beautiful and functional. It'll give a cozy vibe, even on a hot summer day. A set of cult-favorite extra soft cooling bedsheets (boasting a mind-boggling 245,000 5-star reviews!!), folks say feel like sleeping at a luxurious hotel. If you've found falling asleep a chore because of tossing, turning, and *sweating* at night, then treat yourself to these must-have sheets. And a pair of cooling pillowcases with thousands of dreamy reviews from *previously* sweaty sleepers. Don't keep waking and flipping your toasty pillow over in frustration — it's gonna be your cool sleep summer! An artificial olive tree for folks who love *window* shopping at Pottery Barn and West Elm, but prefer getting clever and creating the vibe at half the cost. An arched floor mirror, you're gonna realize, is a classic for a reason. The arch makes the reflection feel open, helping to visually increase the size of any room. This is also a particularly great option for wardrobe you were wondering. A chic Windmill window AC so your bedroom's aesthetic isn't ruined by your need for AC. Reviewers (and this very BuzzFeed writer!) love that this is efficient, quiet, easy to install, and can be controlled by a smartphone. The fact that this can be turned on using voice control was the single best thing to happen to my marriage last summer, when neither of us had to get out of bed to change the temperature. Bless. Or an oscillating tower fan with six speeds (we're talkin' up to 24 feet per second velocity), three modes, and a surprisingly quiet design despite its power. If you're intimidated by installing an AC unit in your fourth-floor gonna be a big fan of this gadget. An upholstered bed frame made with kiln-dried hardwood and covered in 100% polyester with a foam and fiber fill. The rounded cushions and curving vine Winnie Hattie pattern create both a refreshing *and* cozy vibe that'll make any bedroom feel better. A mattress lifter sure to delight A-types who want their hospital corners looking *crisp.* AND if you hate making the bed because tucking the sheets under your two-ton foam mattress makes you sweat, this may be the key you need to unlock your bed-making abilities. This elevates the heaviest of mattresses to make tucking in sheets *way* easier. Your bed is about to look its very best. A cross-hatch tissue holder that's unnecessary, as it is simply placed around the tissue packaging, but it's giving Bottega Veneta, gonna be your next "need." A round rattan wall mirror for homes filled with natural elements and neutral details. The woven fibers add texture and interest while providing a warm space to check ya face. Velvet room-darkening curtains so luxe you may avoid looking out your window because pushing these aside ruins the your unreasonably elegant curtains. Plus, they'll do a great job blocking the sun when you're trying to snooze. Or a sheer linen panel — a sunny option for apartment dwellers who want to keep light in their apartment while blocking the view of the neighbor's bathroom window at the same time. A sunshine quartz candle with pyrite, clear quartz, and honey calcite. The soy-based formula is gonna smell like honeysuckle and jasmine with top notes of lemon and ginger. It's also filled with sparkling dust, making the candle shimmer as it burns. Somehow, this small business managed to put sunshine in a cup! A TikTok-famous sunset lamp to give yourself some soothing light therapy every night — letting you enjoy a sunset even if the view from your window is the brick wall from the building next door. An irregular mirror made with a wood frame covered in plush fabric, giving the entire piece a high-end vibe that'll improve the look of any room, all on its own. Dang, this thing is so nice it's making me feel all squiggly inside. And a mini squiggle mirror to add some cheeky fun to a gallery wall or shelf. If you've started to tire of your straight-edge aesthetic, give yourself a little wiggle room and try decorating with something a little more quirky. A bunch of faux tulips (with over 18,000 5-star reviews!!!) that'll stay in bloom all year long, helping your bedroom look alive even if you don't have enough natural light to support the life of a real houseplant. A bouquet floor lamp, I positively guarantee all your ~buds~ are sure to be jealous of. And a cheerful flush mount, so darn darling, I'm about 32 seconds away from investing in it myself. This modern, perky piece is technically designed with kids in mind, but it's sure to be an eye-catching statement in any room of the house. A set of six vintage-style botanical wall art prints you can use to create a varied botanical wallpaper-like vibe on an entire wall without the overwhelming work of actually putting up wallpaper. A Rifle Paper Co. rug from Loloi for warming up your space by adding fun, frilly florals to the cold, hard floors. Get excited to add this botanical beauty to your bedroom! A bestselling succulent sun catcher that's gonna make you thank the universe for the talented crafter in this world who has found a way to make glass beads this beautiful. If you'd like your bedroom to dazzle and delight, this is the decor for you! A woven throw blanket so you can sneakily embrace your horse girl life with a sophisticated accent piece on your bed. A four-pack of scalloped shelves — a particularly charming set that'll give your record collection something to brag about. A set of Wonder Hangers so you can stack those summer outfits, categories, or even *colors* of clothes with a vertical system, using up closet space in the most efficient (and A-type-friendly) way possible. A pair of battery-operated sconces that'll instantly create a cozy, romantic, Nora Ephron-approved aesthetic beside your bed. Gorgeous felt "tile" wall art — these customizable pieces are sound-dampening and pinnable (like cork board) to create decorated walls that have useful functions in your room. A cushioned bed frame that'll dazzle anyone who dreams of owning a sun-drenched bedroom. Keep the room bright and white, and that's exactly what you'll get! No dark wood or black bed frames in YOUR place. This'll easily slip over a box spring and create a luxe look with minimal effort and cost. A framed canvas painting — hang this above your bed and you may find yourself swan-diving into your duvet at the end of each night, eager to bask in the quiet luxury you've surrounded yourself with, one well-priced painting at a time. An abstract mushroom lamp that'll shine a light on your vivid, crayon-inspired color scheme brilliantly. A hand-tufted wool rug I simply can't believe is available on Amazon. Guests are gonna think you discovered this one-of-a-kind piece while hunting through dozens of handmade rugs at a craft fair they must have missed. The high-quality woven design and sharp collection of colors are simply to dye for. I love it, and I must have it. A cotton knit duvet cover so you can treat yourself to some butter yellow sunshine every time you tuck yourself in at night.
