Karol G Doc "Tomorrow Was Beautiful" Gets Release Date, Trailer (Video)
Yara Sameh Netflix has unveiled the trailer for "Tomorrow Was Beautiful", its documentary on Colombian music superstar Karol G. The feature will premiere on May 8. Hailing from director Cristina Costantini (Mucho Mucho Amor) and R.J. Cutler's This Machine (a part of Sony Pictures Television), the doc tells the story of an artist who was told her dream was too big, that she was the wrong gender, and from the wrong place, to ever be a global star, disproving each assertion. The documentary traces Karol's rise from humble beginnings in Medellín to international stardom, as she proves the critics wrong with an electrifying, record-breaking stadium tour. The film's producers are Cutler, Elise Pearlstein, Trevor Smith, Cristina Costantini, Kristofer Ríos, Alex Simmons, and Mariem Pérez. Mark Blatty, Margaret Yen, John Janick, and Nir Seroussi served as executive producers. Known for her synthesis of reggaeton, Latin trap, and pop, Colombian singer-songwriter Karol G broke out with her 2017 debut album "Unstoppable" and her 2019 hit 'Tusa' featuring Nicki Minaj. The artist followed these successes up with "Mañana Será Bonito", which made history in 2023 as the first all-Spanish-language album by a female artist to debut at No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard 200. The winner of two Grammys, she also made history with her Mañana Será Bonito World Tour, the highest-grossing Latin tour by a female artist to date. 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 Egypt confirms denial of airspace access to US B-52 bombers News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Lifestyle Pistachio and Raspberry Cheesecake Domes Recipe News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Videos & Features Bouchra Dahlab Crowned Miss Arab World 2025 ..

Netflix to Proceed with Liam Payne's "Building the Band" Series
Yara Sameh Netflix is set to move ahead with the talent discovery show "Building the Band", despite the untimely death of series judge Liam Payne. "The Building the Band" talent competition series from Remarkable Entertainment, which is part of Banijay UK, aims to form the next great music group sight unseen. The shiny floor studio show was shot in summer 2024 in the UK, well before Payne fell to his death from the balcony of a hotel room in Buenos Aires in October 2024. Before his tragic death at the age of 31, Payne served as part of the judging panel for Building the Band along with Nicole Scherzinger (The Pussycat Dolls) and Kelly Rowland (Destiny's Child). The series format had musicians competing for a role in a band, and while they rehearsed together, they never saw one another until they performed in front of a live audience. According to sources at Netflix, the video streaming giant never said it would ditch the competition series. What has not been publicly announced is how Building the Band will feature Payne after his death. Netflix has, however, given Payne's family time and space to absorb his death. On Wednesday, during a 'Special Presentation' in Los Angeles, Brandon Riegg, Netflix's vp of nonfiction series and sports was asked how the Building the Band show was handling Payne in the series. On background, sources at Netflix confirmed that Riegg cited ongoing conversations with Payne's family, and that more would be said in the near future. Possible adjustments by the Building the Band producers to address Payne's loss could include his fellow judges and Backstreet Boys star AJ McLean, host of the competition series, offering a tribute in the opening episode. Executives at Banijay UK referred media enquiries to Netflix.

"Bridgerton," "One Piece" & "Outer Banks" Among Hit Netflix Series Not Expected to Return Until 2026
Yara Sameh Netflix unveiled Thursday its 2025 series slate that includes the final seasons of juggernauts "Squid Game" and "Stranger Things" and the returns of "Wednesday", "Ginny & Georgia", "Monster", "Emily In Paris" and "The Witcher" among many others. However, missing from the list are a number of popular shows, including the fifth and final season of "Outer Banks", Season 4 of "Bridgerton" and "The Lincoln Lawye"r, Season 2 of "One Piece", "The Gentlemen","Avatar: The Last Airbender", "Beef","Black Doves" and "3 Body Problem" as well as Season 7 of "Virgin River". Nonetheless, not everything is final, and there could be some scheduling changes in Q4 — for instance, "The Lincoln Lawyer" S3 and "Virgin River" S6 originally were not on Netflix's 2024 slate but managed to deliver new seasons for October and December release, respectively, while The Night Agent's second season, originally on the 2024 slate, slid to January 2025. Still, the majority of the above series that were not featured at the Next on Netflix "Wednesday" presentation — or the elaborate sizzle reel that accompanied it — will skip 2025 and return with new seasons in 2026. Some come as no surprise. For instance, "Bridgerton" showrunner Jess Brownell has said publicly that fans should expect a two-year gap between seasons, which was the case with Seasons 2 and 3 after the second season of the Regency-era drama was released just a year and 3 months following the first. Shows like "Virgin River" and "Black Doves" did not premiere their most recent seasons until December so not making the 2025 slate is understandable. Still, both received renewals ahead of time, which should help shorten the gap between seasons, keeping it not much longer than a year. The situation is similar with "The Lincoln Lawyer". While the legal drama was not officially renewed until this month, it had started preparations, with production on Season 4 set to begin in February, so the Michael Connelly adaptation could potentially pull off another quick turnaround and squeeze into the 2025 Netflix release schedule. "Outer Banks" was another Q4 release, with Part 2 dropping in November when the action-adventure YA series was renewed for a fifth and final season. lProduction is slated to begin in the spring, so a release in the first half of 2026 is possible. Fans of "The Gentlemen", which has a similar spring 2025 Season 2 production start, are looking at a longer wait after the March 2024 Season 1 debut, in part due to creator, director and EP Guy Ritchie's busy schedule. The series is expected to return in 2026. "One Piece" is believed to have just wrapped production on its second season. The post-production on the adaptation of the popular manga is extensive, so between that and the time required to get a Netflix show dubbed and subtitled, a delay until 2026 is not unreasonable. Still, that would make the gap between Season 1 and 2 two and a half years or more, a not very welcome development for fans who have been awaiting Season 2 premiere date news. A post on Netflix's Tudum site this week about a One Piece-themed Lego set made a stir by claiming that the series' second season will 'arrive later this year.' The actual One Piece-Lego announcement does not have Season 2 release information, and the Tudum post was subsequently edited to delete the premiere date reference. Another live-action fantasy adventure series with a famous animated predecessor, "Avatar: The Last Airbender", started filming its second season in September and is expected to remain in production through mid-2025. That would mean a likely 2-year gap between Season 1, which was released in February 2024, and Season 2. The good news is that the wait should not be as long for the third and final season. Like it did with "Squid Game", Netflix ordered a second and a third season of Avatar together, which translates into filming the seasons back-to-back and getting them on the air in a relatively close succession (Season 3 of Squid Game premieres June 27, only six months after Season 2.) We haven't heard much about another Netflix genre series that received a combo Season 2 and Season 3 renewal to wrap its story, 3 Body Problem. The future of "The Watcher" has been in serious doubt after its co-creator Ryan Murphy moved his overall deal to Disney in 2023. The horror thriller, renewed for a second season in November 2022, is off the 2025 Netflix slate again and there is no indication the season will be made — at least not anytime soon. Season 2 of "Beef" has recently begun filming. Because the show originated as a one-off limited series, it took longer to conceive a second installment. A 2026 return would make it about 3 years between seasons. Additionally, "Stranger Things" creators Matt and Ross Duffer revealed during the Netflix presentation that the two new series from their Upside Down Pictures, "The Boroughs" and "Something Very Bad Is Going To Happen", will both premiere in 2026.
