Caesar Cordova, Scarface Actor, Dies At 84

Character actor Caesar Cordova, best known for appearing in gangster films with Al Pacino, has passed away. Variety reports that Cordova died of natural causes on Wednesday in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Cordova is survived by his wife Gladys Gomez; their four children Panchito Gomez, Luis Gomez, Ana Sanchez Gomez and Elena Gomez Martinez, and three children from a previous marriage Damarys Cordova, Abigail Cordova and Jesse Cordova. Born in 1936 in Puerto Rico, Cordova was 84 at the time of his passing. May he rest in peace and our condolences to his family.

Though Cordova started his acting career on television, he's probably best known for appearing in movies like Carlito's Way, where he played the barber, and Scarface, where he played a taco stand cook; both opposite Al Pacino and both directed by filmmaker Brian De Palma. Some of his other feature film roles include appearances in Where the Buffalo Roam with Bill Murray, Nighthawks opposite Sylvester Stallone and Billy Dee Williams, Cutter's Way with Jeff Bridges, and Shark?s Treasure.

Cordova also dabbled in TV throughout his career as well, making appearances on episodes of Kojak, The A-Team, and Cagney & Lacey. He also appeared on Broadway in the show ?Does a Tiger Wear a Necktie?," another collaboration with Al Pacino.

The previously mentioned son of Cordova, Panchito G?mez, followed his father into the world of acting. In the early 70s he encouraged G?mez to pursue acting as a young boy, auditioning for a part in the second season of Sesame Street for The Children's Television Workshop. G?mez auditioned opposite Ra?l Juli? and would go on to become the first child actor named in the credits of the series.

Cordova's two biggest credits, De Palma's Scarface and Carlito's Way, arrived ten years apart. Scarface, a remake of the 1932 film of the same name, was met with negative critical reception upon release but has become a cult film in the decades since. Carlito's Way, despite a warmer reception upon release, has also developed a following since its release with both films now bona fide classics in the pantheon of Hollywood.

According to the statement, Boseman was diagnosed with stage III colon cancer in 2016 and battled it four four years as it progressed to stage IV. He died at home, surrounded by his wife and family.

Boseman was Jackie Robinson, Black Panther and so many more
After years working mostly as a TV actor, Boseman?s found his breakout role as Robinson in ?42.? His portrayal of the legend?s unwavering resolve and private frustrations as he broke baseball?s color barrier earned widespread acclaim.

Boseman went onto play the likes of James Brown in ?Get on Up? and a star football player in ?Draft Day? in 2014. Even after his cancer diagnosis in 2016, Boseman breathed life into the iconic Black Panther in three Marvel movies, ending with Avengers: Endgame in 2019. His most recent film role was Vietnam War soldier Norman Earl ?Stormin' Norm? Holloway in Spike Lee?s critically acclaimed ?Da 5 Bloods.?

Per IMDB, Boseman has one more completed film to be released, an adaptation of the play ?Ma Rainey?s Black Bottom? by August Wilson.

Leslie Hamilton Freas, Terminator Star Linda Hamilton's Twin Sister and Stunt Double, Dies at 63


Leslie Hamilton Freas, the identical twin sister of Terminator star Linda Hamilton, has died at the age of 63. Freas appeared in 1991's Terminator 2: Judgement Day as a stunt double for Hamilton as well as portrayed the cyborg Sarah Connor when both the real Sarah (played by Hamilton) and the T-1000 Terminator that had shifted to look like Sarah were in the same shot. Freas, who was born on September 26, 1956 in Salisbury Maryland, died on Saturday, August 22nd and a cause of death has not been revealed.

According to an obituary, outside of her role working with Hamilton in Terminator 2: Judgement Day, Freas worked as an ER nurse, later transitioning to work as a hospice nurse later in her career. She's described as "the consummate caretaker" who was devoted to not just her children but the lives of others. She's also noted as being an avid fisherwoman.

In addition to the scene in which she played the T-1000 version of Sarah, Freas also appeared additional scenes in the film, most notably the haunting nuclear apocalypse nightmare scene in which Freas -- who is credited as Leslie Hamilton Gearren in the film -- plays the happy Sarah Connor playing on the playground with a young John Connor before the nuclear blast while the real Sarah Connor (Hamilton) watches in horror (via MovieWeb). Freas also appeared in a deleted scene in which Sarah and John reset the T-800's (Arnold Schwarzenegger) CPU. The scene saw Freas stand by Schwarzenegger while Hamilton is actually seen in a "mirror" illusion, an example of the film pulling off some interesting visual tricks without the use of CGI. Terminator 2 was Freas sole film credit.

Hamilton spoke about how the film incorporated Freas, particularly in the T-1000 scene, in a 2010 interview

"They were going to use a process shot for the double, but they flew Leslie in and were delighted," Hamilton said.

Per Freas obituary, she is survived by her children, Ashley, Adam, and Kendall, her sisters Laura Hamilton and Linda Hamilton, brother Ford Hamilton, a stepbrother Jeffrey Payne, and grandchildren Luna Bo and Ollie.

Diana Rigg, Star of ?Game of Thrones? and TV?s ?The Avengers,? Dies at 82


Diana Rigg, who was best known for her roles as Lady Olenna Tyrell on ?Game of Thrones? and Emma Peel in the 1960s ?The Avengers? TV series, died Thursday. She was 82.

?It is with tremendous sadness that we announce that Dame Diana Rigg died peacefully early this morning,? Rigg?s agent Simon Beresford said in a statement to TheWrap Thursday. ?She was at home with her family who have asked for privacy at this difficult time. Dame Diana was an icon of theatre, film, and television. She was the recipient of BAFTA, Emmy, Tony and Evening Standard Awards for her work on stage and screen. Dame Diana was a much loved and admired member of her profession, a force of nature who loved her work and her fellow actors. She will be greatly missed.?

?My Beloved Ma died peacefully in her sleep early this morning, at home, surrounded by family,? Rigg?s daughter, Rachael Stirling, said in her own statement. ?She died of cancer diagnosed in March, and spent her last months joyfully reflecting on her extraordinary life, full of love, laughter and a deep pride in her profession. I will miss her beyond words.?

Along with her iconic roles as intelligence agent Emma Peel and Lady Tyrell, a.k.a. the Queen of Thorns, Rigg was known for playing Tracy Bond, the wife of James Bond (played by George Lazenby), in 1969?s ?On Her Majesty?s Secret Service.?

She was also widely regarded for her theater work, serving as a member of the Royal Shakespeare Company from 1959-64 and appearing in three Broadway productions: ?Abelard and Heloise? in 1971, ?The Misanthrope? in 1975, and ?Medea? in 1994. Rigg received a Tony nomination for each part and a win for ?Medea.?

Rigg was nominated for nine Emmys, with two of those nods being for ?The Avengers? and four for ?GoT,? and grabbed one win for her part as Mrs Danvers in the 1997 PBS miniseries ?Rebecca.?

Among her numerous memorable TV credits are Rigg?s popular guest spots on BBC/HBO?s ?Extras? in 2006 and ?Dr. Who? in 2013. More recently, she appeared in the ITV series ?Victoria,? BSkyB and NBC?s ?You, Me and the Apocalypse,? and Channel 5?s ?All Creatures Great and Small.?

Born in Doncaster, Yorkshire, England, Rigg trained at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art from 1955-57. She was married twice, first to Menachem Gueffen in 1973, whom she divorced three years later, and then to Archibald Stirling in 1982, whom she had daughter Rachael Stirling with before they divorced in 1990.

?Luke Cage? & ?Iron Fist? Return To Marvel Studios In One Month

In 2018, Netflix began canceling its various Marvel television shows. This began with the cancellation of Iron Fist but was then followed up by the axing of Luke Cage. Daredevil followed soon after with both The Punisher and Jessica Jones both being canceled as well. But after two years, Marvel Studios will be allowed to use the characters again.

What went under the radar until the shows were canceled was a particular clause in the contracts Marvel Studios had with the streaming titan. It essentially said that Marvel Studios would be unable to use characters like Luke Cage and Iron Fist until two years after the cancellation of their respective shows. Now that two-year date is rapidly approaching and both Luke Cage and Iron Fist will be making their way back to the Marvel Studios next month.

The Mandalorian | Season 2 Official Trailer

 
Amazon has ordered the first spinoff TV series for The Boys, and the story details reveal a college setting for the world's next generation of Supes.

Amazon Prime Video is set to expand the universe of their hit series, The Boys, with a spinoff show. Based on the comics by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson, Amazon has seen The Boys become a wildly popular series for its streaming service. The satirical take on superheroes pits Hughie Campbell, Billy Butcher, and The Boys against the world's biggest superhero team, The Seven. After the first season was one of Amazon's biggest original pieces of content, season 2 is currently unfolding.

The second season of The Boys has raised the stakes of the series once more. A new weekly episode release format has allowed conversations about the show to continue to grow, leading to increased interest in The Boys. Amazon is aware of the show's popularity, too, as it was already announced that season 3 is in the works. The company also gave The Boys its own after-show for season 2 hosted by Aisha Tyler. With interest in The Boys growing, Amazon is doubling-down on its superhero property.

According to Variety, Amazon is fast-tracking a spinoff series for The Boys. The series will be based on America's only college for superheroes run by Vought. The report describes the spinoff as an R-rated series exploring the lives of hormonal and competitive supes competing for contracts to be heroes in the best cities in the country, which will put their physical, sexual, and moral boundaries to the test. Craig Rosenberg is writing the pilot and will serve as showrunner and executive producer, while The Boys showrunner Eric Kripke will also produce.

News of The Boys' spinoff show comes on the heels of season 2, reportedly crushing the performance of the first season. Amazon says the season 2 premiere was the biggest launch ever for one of their original pieces of content. More specifically, season 2 has seen the audience nearly double the views that season 1 did. With that in mind, its no wonder that Amazon is interested in expanding the universe, especially with Kripke, Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, and more returning to produce.

As for the approach that The Boys spinoff is taking, the superhero college angle could be a great way to expand and introduce more characters from the comics. One aspect of the source material that The Boys hasn't explored yet is other super teams besides The Seven. However, the spinoff could provide the backstory or origins for younger groups like the Young Americans or Teenage Kix. The latter has already been set up through the main show, but the spinoff could focus on a new generation and introduce some crazier characters from the comics in the process.

One of the biggest questions that come from this news is what the crossover potential will look like. If the spinoff is being fast-tracked, then the first season of it and season 3 of The Boys could be in production simultaneously. Although they likely won't air on Amazon concurrently, this could allow members of The Seven to pop up in the spinoff briefly or some of the new heroes to appear in The Boys. Even though we don't know when the spinoff will be released, perhaps the remaining episodes of The Boys season 2 will provide some teases for what is ahead.

?Dexter? Returning to Showtime for 10-Episode Limited Series

America?s favorite serial killer is returning to Showtime, which has ordered a new 10-episode Dexter limited series that will once again star Michael C. Hall., the network announced Wednesday.

Clyde Phillips will return as showrunner, and the limited series is set to begin production early next year, with a tentative premiere date in the fall of 2021. No supporting cast was mentioned, and given the ultimate fate of Dexter?s sister, Deborah Morgan, it?s unlikely that Jennifer Carpenter would return, unless the series incorporates flashbacks. One would assume, however, that Yvonne Strahovski will come back, seeing as how her character Hannah is raising Dexter?s young son, Harrison, who has surely grown up since the original series finale in 2013.

?Dexter is such a special series, both for its millions of fans and for Showtime, as this breakthrough show helped put our network on the map many years ago,? said Showtime president Gary Levine, who made the announcement with Jana Winograde. ?We would only revisit this unique character if we could find a creative take that was truly worthy of the brilliant, original series. Well, I am happy to report that Clyde Phillips and Michael C. Hall have found it, and we can?t wait to shoot it and show it to the world!?

The original eight-season run of Dexter premiered in the fall of 2006 and starred Hall as Dexter Morgan, a complicated and conflicted blood-spatter expert for the Miami police department who moonlights as a serial killer. All seasons of Dexter are currently available on Showtime via Showtime On Demand and Showtime Anytime as well as the network?s stand-alone service.

Hall is a six-time Emmy nominee for Outstanding Lead Actor, the last five nominations coming in consecutive years for his work on Dexter. He also received five consecutive Golden Globe nominations and six Screen Actors Guild noms for the role, winning both honors in 2010. In addition, Hall received an Emmy nomination for his performance on HBO?s Six Feet Under.

Phillips earned Emmy and Golden Globe nominations for his work as executive producer and showrunner of Dexter. Phillips has an overall deal with Showtime and CBS Television Studios through which he is developing projects for both entities that can air on platforms within or outside the ViacomCBS family.

I absolutely adored Dexter throughout its eight-season run (guest stars John Lithgow and Jimmy Smits were so good), but there?s no question that the character didn?t get the send-off he deserved, as the series finale wasn?t especially satisfying. Phillips and Hall now have the opportunity to right that creative wrong, and I?m not so sure Dexter deserves a ?happy? ending this time around. Either way, I can?t wait to see where they take the character, and only hope the new denouement is worthy of the original show.
