De eerste trailer van seizoen 3 is verschenen, nu nog ruim een maand wachten tot de eerste afleveringen!

De rechter in L.A, heeft geoordeeld dat 9 van 11 aanklachten die Rose heeft gedaan tegen Harvey Weinstein en zijn advocaten niet kloppen. Rose deed de aanklachten meer dan een jaar geleden, zo vond ze o.a. dat een eerste kopie van haar boek ‘Brave’ gestolen was.

Rose McGowan’s lawsuit against Harvey Weinstein, his lawyers and a spy agency survived a round of dismissal motions in federal court — but a judge rejected nine of her 11 claims, including racketeering.

The actress sued Weinstein and his team of “fixers” in October 2019, claiming they stole a pre-publication copy of her memoir “Brave” in 2017 and tried to “silence” and “portray her as increasingly unglued” to thwart her rape allegation against the movie mogul.

She claimed Weinstein, the private intelligence firm Black Cube and lawyers David Boies and Lisa Bloom engaged in a “diabolical” plot to defraud and discredit her in the months leading up to Weinstein exposes in the New York Times and the New Yorker.

Weinstein, Black Cube, Boies and Bloom filed four separate motions to dismiss her 72-page complaint in the Central District of California.

In his ruling Monday, U.S. District Judge Otis D. Wright said McGowan convinced the court she has plausible claims of fraudulent deceit and common law fraud against the defendants.

He dismissed her claims alleging racketeering and racketeering conspiracy but said she could try again with an amended complaint filed in the next 21 days.

He also found her claims of intentional infliction of emotional distress and negligent hiring and supervision were barred by the statute of limitations.

In rejecting her racketeering claims, Judge Wright said McGowan fell short of convincing the court that Weinstein’s alleged scheme was big enough or open-ended enough to meet legal standards.

He said her racketeering claims, as stated, only show “defendants operated with a singular goal, to protect Weinstein’s reputation by stopping the publication of ‘Brave’ and attempting to discredit McGowan.”

“Ultimately, it matters not whether defendants failed in their goal of protecting Weinstein’s reputation or succeeded in their goal of fraudulently obtaining a copy of ‘Brave,’ as in either case the court finds no risk that the manner in which the predicate acts occurred could recur indefinitely,” he wrote.

“Neither of defendants’ purported goals — keeping Weinstein’s misconduct secret from the public or obtaining a copy of ‘Brave’ before it was published — could be pursued anew. For these reasons, the court finds that McGowan also fails to allege a racketeering pattern with open-ended continuity,” he wrote.

“Harvey Weinstein was able to perpetrate and cover up decades of violence and control over women because he had a sophisticated team working on his behalf to systematically silence and discredit his victims,” McGowan said when she filed the lawsuit.

Weinstein’s civil lawyer Phyllis Kupferstein previously dismissed the suit as having “no legal merit.”

“Once and for all, Rose McGowan will be shown to be what she is; a publicity seeker looking for money,” Kupferstein said in a response to the lawsuit last year.

Weinstein, 68, is now serving a 23-year sentence at Wende Correctional Facility in Alden, NY, after he was convicted of rape and sexual assault involving separate victims.

A Manhattan jury found him guilty of raping actress Jessica Mann in a Midtown hotel in March 2013 and sexually assaulting former production assistant Mimi Haley in 2006.

Los Angeles County prosecutors now are working to extradite him to California to face charges he raped or sexually assaulted five other victims.

Acteur J.J. Hawkins zal de eerste transgender rol in ‘Charmed’ gaan spelen. Hij is gecast in de terugkerende rol van Kevin een student die één van de ‘Charmed Ones’ zal inspireren.

Transgender actor J.J. Hawkins is set to join The CW’s Charmed for the third season.

Hawkins will become the first trans actor on the reboot of the iconic show. He joins the cast in the recurring role of Kevin, a transgender male college student who inspires one of the Charmed Ones to take on a very formidable opponent. This is another step forward in authentic representation with a trans actor playing a trans role. The news of Hawkins’ casting couldn’t come at a better time considering this week marks Trans Awareness Week.

Tori Spelling en Jennie Garth hebben met Entertainment Tonight gepraat over hun nieuwe podcast over over 90210. Hier spraken ze ook kort over de de strijd die Shannen voert tegen kanker en hoe sterk ze haar vinden. Klik op de link om het interview te bekijken.

Tori Spelling and Jennie Garth couldn’t be more impressed by Shannen Doherty’s strength. In an interview with ET’s Katie Krause, the Beverly Hills, 90210 co-stars praised Doherty and her determination amid her cancer battle.

“Shannen’s just a really strong person. That’s who who she is,” Garth shared. “She’s an Aries, she’s very determined, and you don’t think about cancer when you’re working with her or hanging out with her. That’s not what her life is. She’s just Shannen, and our friend, and our castmate.

Doherty was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015. Two years later, she announced her cancer was in remission, but revealed in February 2020 that her cancer had returned last year, in stage 4. The actress starred alongside Garth and Spelling on 90210, as well as the show’s recent reunion series, BH90210, last year.

“That she’s dealing with such a heavy thing is hard, [but] you don’t see it,” Garth said. “She’s really good about that, and [tries] to keep it private.”

“She actually didn’t share with us that her cancer had come back,” Spelling added. “We didn’t find out until after, and that’s just a testament to her, because she didn’t want people to feel bad for her or think she couldn’t work as hard. And she worked so hard.”

Spelling said she and Garth wished Doherty would have shared her battle with them, “because we wanted to be there for her during that experience.” “But the fact that she didn’t tell anyone speaks volumes of her work ethic and the type of strong person that she is,” she added.

In addition to Spelling, Garth and Doherty, Ian Ziering, Brian Austin Green, Jason Priestley and Gabrielle Carteris also returned for BH90210. Fellow original 90210 castmember Luke Perry died on March 4, 2019, before filming of BH90210 took place.

The first episode of the series was dedicated to Perry, and Garth and Spelling said they’ll continue to keep his memory close on their new 9021OMG podcast. The podcast will see the two actresses will revisit their old episodes and share behind-the-scenes secrets from their time on the show.

“While it’ll be hard to watch, I think it’ll be really great to be able to share with all our fans the amazing human [Perry] was behind the cameras,” Spelling said. “Because he was this heartbreaker, obviously everyone knew he was a nice guy. Anyone that knew him — even if he didn’t know him — you knew he was just a great person and so humble.”

“He was such a jokester on set, and I’m sure a lot of the scenes are gonna be, ‘OK, he looks super sexy here, but here’s what he was doing behind the cameras to make us all laugh.’ So it’ll be nice to be able to share that side of him and to keep the spirit alive,” she added.

“To be honest with you, the ones with Luke will be really difficult for me to sit through,” Garth agreed. “But you know, I’ll find beauty in it.”

9021OMG podcast premieres Monday, Nov. 9. See more on Doherty and what she told ET about her involvement in BH90210 in the video below.

Het tweede seizoen van ‘Charmed’ zal op 23 november beginnen op de Britse zender E4. Hopelijk komt hiermee de release van de DVD van seizoen 2 dichterbij, aangezien we regio 2 dvd’s ook hier in NL kunnen bekijken :)

The drama series is produced by CBS Television Studios in association with Propagate Content and stars Madeleine Mantock, Melonie Diaz, Sara Jeffrey, Rupert Evans, Ser’Darius Blain, Charlie Gillespie and Ellen Tamaki.

In the next new episode, titled Safe Space, following the devastating loss of The Elders, Mel (Melonie Diaz), Maggie (Sarah Jeffery) and Macy (Madeleine Mantock) take over their duties. Maggie takes time to celebrate her birthday with a big bash, but Mel finds herself too preoccupied with their new responsibilities to join in the fun. As the girls clean up the following morning, Macy shocks her sisters with an announcement. A mysterious hooded foe attacks The Charmed Ones who escape through a portal while Harry (Rupert Evans) has an unnerving encounter with the villain. The girls land in a secret location where they uncover more about the mystical world of The Elders… and community workspaces. Macy nurses a serious wound and Maggie meets a handsome stranger (Jordan Donica.) The Charmed Ones quickly become aware of the gravity of their new roles and must decide if they are truly prepared for the responsibility.
