The story takes place in 1849, years after a devastating illness swept through the area. Actress Wise delivers a powerful performance as Sarah, a woman who recently gained her freedom from slavery and believes her pale-skinned daughter, Emily Katherine Ford, is possessed. This unusual idea blends surprisingly well with the Old West setting, creating a strange but compelling narrative that Crowley handles with skill.

I’m so excited about Season 2 of *Happy’s Place*! It’s a show created by Kevin and Julie Abbott, and it centers around Bobbie, played by Reba McEntire, who takes over her father’s bar after he passes away. Things get really interesting when she finds out she has a half-sister who’s also entitled to a part of it. Apparently, when the bar reopens, a huge secret from the past will come out, and it’s going to cause a lot of drama and test everyone’s friendships!

Elijah Wood recently attended DesertCon in Mexico, and footage from his panel discussion has surfaced online. He spoke about *The Hunt for Gollum*, mentioning the film had many cameo possibilities. Wood particularly praised the project for reuniting the creative team behind Peter Jackson’s *Lord of the Rings* trilogy. He shared, “I’ve read the script, and it’s really good. It’s exciting to see Fran, Peter, and Philippa – the core creative team from *Lord of the Rings* – heavily involved again.”

Zelda publicly asked people to stop sending her AI-generated videos of her late father, sharing her plea on Instagram Stories, according to Variety. She explained she doesn’t want to see them and won’t understand them, and warned that while trolling her won’t bother her, she’ll block those who continue. More importantly, she asked people to consider the impact on her, her father’s memory, and everyone involved, stating the videos are pointless, a waste of effort, and not what her father would have wanted.

Following the announcement of Taylor Kinney’s return to the show, fans are now getting a first look at Brett Richards, the new battalion chief joining Cal Fire. According to US Weekly, Hatosy’s character will be complex – a strict rule-follower with an unpredictable side. The official description reveals Richards’ strong leadership style will likely cause friction, but he’s determined to guide Bode and the 42 crew, vowing to prevent any further firefighter deaths.

Both WWE and AEW have a lot of talented Latino wrestlers. While we miss Eddie Guerrero – remember that surprising storyline with Dominik Mysterio years ago? – there’s still plenty of exciting Latino performers bringing energy to the ring every week. Here’s a look at some of the best Latino wrestlers working in those promotions today!

Matthew Lillard has confirmed he’ll be in the upcoming season of Marvel’s *Daredevil: Born Again*.
