Riverdale creator/showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa is at the helm of an upcoming reboot of “Pretty Little Liars.” Aguirre-Sacasa will reportedly write the script that will have new characters and a new storyline.

While there is no network officially attached to the project at this time, sources say that HBO Max is interested in the show. Pretty Little Liars made the jump to HBO Max earlier this year as the series’ streaming home.

The upcoming reboot would be the fourth iteration of Pretty Little Liars, following the first spinoff series Ravenswood, then Pretty Little Liars: The Perfectionists.

Sara Haines is officially returning to her role as a co-host on The View. The former co-host will be returning to the program for season 24, which is set to premiere after Labor Day on Tuesday, Sept. 8. Haines will be taking over the spot vacated by Abby Huntsman, who announced her exit after two seasons in January. The show is moderated by Whoopi Goldberg, with Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin and Meghan McCain also serving as co-hosts.

Haines said in a statement: “I grew up watching The View, and what this show stands for — different women, different backgrounds and different points of view — just speaks to my soul. I feel like I caught a shooting star twice. To once again be a part of the dialogue where I can share, discuss and disagree alongside these powerful and strong women is a tremendous honor. I feel very lucky.”

Haines previously served as a co-host for two seasons from 2016 to 2018. She left The View to helm GMA Day, the third-hour block of Good Morning America with Michael Strahan. It was rebranded as Strahan, Sara and Keke with the full-time addition of Keke Palmer in August 2019. However, the show was recently canceled after being sidelined in March for coronavirus coverage.

Jamie Foxx is heading back to Netflix to star in and produce a new comedy series, inspired by Foxx’s relationship with his daughter Corinne, who is also serving as producer. The series is titled Dad Stop Embarrassing Me, and will costar Foxx’s fellow In Living Color alum David Alan Grier and teenage actress Kyla-Drew. Bentley Kyle Evans, who co-created Foxx’s 1990s WB sitcom, will serve as showrunner.

Dad Stop Embarrassing Me will mark Foxx’s first regular role on a scripted series since The Jamie Foxx Show‘s conclusion in 2001. He currently hosts the Fox game show Beat Shazam.  Foxx will next be seen — or rather, heard — as the main character in Pixar’s upcoming film Soul, currently scheduled for a November release.

Lucasfilm and The Walt Disney Company have revealed that the second season of the smash hit series “The Mandalorian” will begin streaming on Disney+ this October 30.

The show, set after the fall of the Empire – but before the rise of the First Order – follows around a bounty hunter (Pedro Pascal) seeking to eke out a living with his blasters and wits in a near-lawless frontier.

The Mandalorian debuted in November 2019 as the first live-action “Star Wars” series, and quickly became a fan favorite. The first season is nominated for 15 Emmy Awards, including outstanding drama series.
