      Cole Sprouse: Reboot Will Ruin 'Suite Life of Zack and Cody'

      by

      Disney Channel

      The former Disney actor is not keen to bring back his classic television series because a remake risks ‘demolishing that perfect little golden memory of a programme.’
      May 22, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Cole Sprouse isn’t convinced a reboot of his classic series “The Suite Life of Zack and Cody” would be a good idea, as it risks “demolishing that perfect little golden memory of a programme.”
      Cole starred in the series with twin brother Dylan, Ashley Tisdale, Brenda Song, and Phill Lewis. The series ran from 2005 to 2008 before launching a spin-off, “The Suite Life on Deck”, in 2008 which added Debby Ryan to the cast.
      Speaking on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” on Wednesday, May 20, 2020, the actor said he’s often asked about the possibility of a reboot but insisted it’s not a good idea.
      “I’ve had the privilege of being a part of a lot of fun TV shows when I was younger that kind of became cult classics or fan favourites like Suite Life or Friends, and there’s always that question that pops up,” he reflected. “You know, there’s always that, ‘When are you going to go back?’ or ‘When are you going to renew it?’ But I don’t think it should be done if I’m being honest.”
      Cole explained, “I think it’s really incendiary. There’s a huge potential to kind of demolish that perfect little golden memory of a programme if you go back and you revive it.”
      “Look, I’m not the biggest fan of the sequel and the spin-off thing. I think also, if enough time elapses, everyone who comes back to a programme like that, doesn’t… they’re not really in the same headspace, so they’re trying to capture the same feeling that it was in at least my childhood… I don’t know how it would feel.”
      He concluded, “I think it would be enjoyable to find a way to do it that has a lot of respect and captures the feeling that people are actually desiring from that. But I don’t know, I think it can be quite incendiary.”

      Skeet Ulrich Blames Creative Boredom for His Departure From 'Riverdale'

      by

      The CW

      The actor playing F.P. Jones on the teen drama series announced his exit back in February after his castmate Marisol Nichols went public with her decision to leave the show.
      May 21, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Actor Skeet Ulrich has stunned “Riverdale” fans by revealing he quit the show because he got bored playing F.P. Jones.
      Ulrich announced he was leaving the hit show in February and at the time released a statement noting the friendships he had made on the set.
      “I will miss seeing everyone on a daily basis,” he said, adding, “I’m proud to have been part of such a talented group of people, in front of the camera and behind. But I’ve decided that it’s time for me to move on to explore other creative opportunities.”
      Now, in an honest Instagram Live video, the actor explains he just didn’t like his character.
      “I’m leaving ‘Riverdale’ because I got bored creatively,” he said, while hanging out by his pool. “How’s that? The most honest answer.”
      The actor has portrayed F.P. Jones in the teen drama since it launched in 2017.
      His decision to quit the show came shortly after castmate Marisol Nichols announced she was leaving “Riverdale”.
      The actress, who portrays Hermione Lodge on the show, released a statement to TVLine, which read: “I had an incredible time bringing Hermione Lodge to life and working with my amazing cast, who became family. We had so many wonderful times together during the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. We really do have the best fans ever. I am looking forward to the next chapter and am excited about the future.”
      Commenting on the exits, “Riverdale” showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa said, “Part of life in ‘Riverdale’ – and part of growing up – is saying goodbye to people. I’m grateful to Skeet and Marisol for their incredible work on the show these last four years, and we all wish them well on their future endeavors. F.P. and Hermione will never be far from our hearts. And, of course, they’re always welcome back in ‘Riverdale’.”
      Neither castmate will return for the fifth season of the show.

      Lil Twist Calls 'GUHH' Co-Stars 'Fake' for Criticizing Show Over Alleged Fake Beefs

      by

      Instagram

      This arrives after Egypt Criss announces her exit from the WE tv reality series, saying, ‘I respect myself enough to walk away from anything that no longer serves me, grows me or makes me happy.’
      May 21, 2020
      AceShowbiz – While most of “Growing Up Hip Hop” stars, including Romeo Miller and Egypt Criss, took to their respective social media accounts to call out the show’s producers, Lil Twist was not one of them. If anything, the rapper blasted his co-stars who accused the show’s producers of orchestrating drama for ratings.
      Writing on his Twitter account, Twist stated on Tuesday, May 19, “Ima keep it 100 I find it kind of fake that NOW AFTER 5 SEASONS these people talking bout how they being portrayed… I ain’t even been on a full 2 seasons these producers don’t know me like they know y’all.. y’all been in business with these folk way longer than I have.”
      In another tweet he said, “Tryna make it seem to the masses that this s**t is all scripted and written up to LOOK like the way it’s actually being shown.. LISTEN PEOPLE THIS S**T IS 100 percent real.. of course the producers gone do they job to keep up with what WE ARE giving them.. day after day….”
      “So if it is fake…. why I don’t look like a weird a** crybaby that’s b****in over a joke?” he continued. “Or why I don’t like a n****a that paint his face and wear press on nails? Ohh that’s cause I’m only give these producers and the people that watch WHAT I WANT THEM TO SEE . can’t trick twist.”
      Concluding his rant, Twist stated, “Moral of the story ONLY GIVE OFF WHAT U WANT THE WORLD TO SEE, AND DONT GET MAD WHEN THEY SEE IT AND MAKE AN OPINION ON IT. ITS TV. #ItWasAllGoodJustAWeekAgo #NowItsAnACTUALCoolN_OnTheShowEverybodyQuittin coo now we get to see something entertaining.”
      This arrives after Egypt announced her exit from the WE tv reality series. “I respect myself enough to walk away from anything that no longer serves me, grows me or makes me happy,” she said on Instagram. “It’s time for me to rise from the ashes from being falsely represented to you, the people I love most, which is why I have decided to resign from Growing Up Hip Hop.”
      Egypt isn’t the only cast member who is critical towards the way they’re portrayed on “Growing Up Hip Hop”. Romeo previously slammed “Growing Up Hip Hop” producers for allegedly creating “fake drama” with Angela Simmons.
      Responding to an article which claimed that “things get awkward” between him and Angela, Romeo tweeted in February, “Literally was dealing with my autie death and hopped on a plane right after this scene to make her funeral.Great editing tho. Was literally in and out and came to show love to Egypt for HER engagement.” He added, “Yall gotta stop with the fake drama, but that’s why I left the show.”

      Jamie Lynn Spears Explains Why Her Acting Return Felt Very Natural for Her

      by

      Instagram

      Twelve years since the ending of ‘Zoey 101’, the younger sister of Britney Spears is making a return to the small screen by taking on the role of Noreen Fitzgibbons on ‘Sweet Magnolias’.
      May 20, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Jamie Lynn Spears is convinced she was destined to make her acting return in new TV series “Sweet Magnolias” because so many aspects of the project mirrored her own life.
      Britney Spears’ little sister hasn’t flexed her acting muscles since her Nickelodeon show “Zoey 101” ended in 2008, when she became a teenage mum with the birth of her first child.
      She subsequently reinvented herself as a country singer, but the 29 year old, now a mother-of-two, is back onscreen in the Netflix adaptation of author Sherryl Woods’ hit book series, which revolves around a trio of childhood best friends in the small town of Serenity, South Carolina.
      “I had been in denial, not really admitting to myself how much I missed acting,” Jamie Lynn tells The Hollywood Reporter.

      “I was working on my music for a while and then I focused on my family for a bit. With acting, I was just waiting for a project that made sense.”
      Jamie Lynn was drawn to the role of Noreen Fitzgibbons, a young nurse who falls pregnant after an affair with Chris Klein’s character, Dr. Bill Townsend, because she could relate to so much of her TV alter ego’s story.
      “It didn’t even feel like acting,” she explains. “Although it was nerve-racking to get back in front of the camera, this felt very natural for me.
      “I remember being 16 years old, being pregnant in a small town. And then on top of it, the whole world was watching. Don’t get me wrong, I didn’t view myself as a victim. And with Noreen, it was important to not play the victim either. She put herself in a compromising situation. She’s a young girl who made some adult decisions and she’s trying to take some responsibility for that. That was me, too.”
      And it wasn’t just the Fitzgibbons parallels which struck a chord with Jamie Lynn – the fictional town shares the same name as the Spears family’s estate in Louisiana, while her eldest child is called Maddie – just like the main character, played by JoAnna Garcia Swisher.
      “There were so many little nods from the universe, telling me that this is what I was supposed to be doing,” she says.
      “Number one, Serenity being the name of the town. That’s a big part of my life, that word in general. Also, we shot in this small town (in Covington, Georgia) that happened to be where my first music producer’s wife is from. Her mother came in and watched Ivey (her two-year-old daughter) for me one night while I was on set, because I knew them. It was just so bizarre, but in a cool way.
      “Everything literally was just meant to be.”

      by

      WENN

      Teaming up with producers at UMC and officials at the American Black Film Festival to launch the Shoot Your Shot casting call, the rap pioneer invites wannabe actors to apply for the role.
      May 20, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Rap pioneer MC Lyte has launched a U.S.-wide talent search to find her new co-star for an upcoming sitcom.
      The hip-hop icon is developing a new half-hour series called “Partners in Rhyme”, which will centre on a female foster kid and social media star who is convinced she will become the next Cardi B.
      Lyte, real name Lana Moorer, will feature as a record label executive tasked with taking the teen under her wing, and to find her young co-star, she has teamed up with producers at U.S. network UMC (Urban Movie Channel) and officials at the American Black Film Festival (ABFF) to launch the Shoot Your Shot casting call, inviting wannabe actors to apply for the role.
      Five finalists will perform at the planned ABFF event in Miami, Florida later this year, when a winner will be chosen as the show’s lead.
      Lyte, who has featured in TV series like “Power, “S.W.A.T.”, and “Queen of the South”, is working with “Martin and The Jamie Foxx Show” executive producer Bentley Kyle Evans on the project.
      In a statement issued to Deadline.com, she writes, “It’s an honor to be in business with UMC for ‘Partners in Rhyme’.”
      “Teaming up with Bentley Evans and Harvest Studios made the creative process an amazing journey. I’m even more excited that my production company, Sunni Gyrl, led by Lynn Richardson, who also serves as Executive Producer, has planted its feet in the production world. I’m excited to see all of the casting submissions and find our co-star.”
      “Partners in Rhyme” is expected to debut its pilot episode at the 2021 ABFF, before premiering on UMC.
