The List for Thursday, July 27th 2023

Welcome to The List,

Well, “The Usual Suspects” is no longer the biggest surprise ending in Kevin Spacey’s career.  Yesterday, a London jury found him not guilty of ALL NINE sexual misconduct charges he was facing:  After the verdict, Spacey said he was “enormously grateful” to the jury and “humbled” by the outcome of the trial.  Yesterday also just happened to be Spacey’s 64th birthday

ABC’s “General Hospital” has found an interesting way to keep coming up with new episodes during the strike:  SCABS!!!  They’re using “temporary writers” to keep the show going.  The General Hospital writers understand though that stopping production could spell the demise of soap operas.

Jason Aldean has trimmed six seconds from his “Try That in a Small Town” video.  According to the “Washington Post”, he removed footage from a Fox Atlanta news report that showed violent imagery from a BLM protest in 2020. Jason hasn’t commented . . . but his record company confirmed the footage was edited due to “third party copyright clearance issues”…I have this bridge…for sale….

Reality TV star and one-time country singer Jana Kramer tells the Whine Down podcast that Miranda Lambert was rude for chastising fans for taking a selfie during one of her concerts. “I get the other side of it where it’s like ‘OK, I’m here to listen to music,’ but it’s also, it’s a concert, in my mind, wouldn’t you want people having fun?

Variety magazine says two Barbie sequels may be in the works. Mattel CEO Ynon Kreiz says, “opportunities open up very quickly, once you establish the first movie as a successful representation of a franchise on the big screen. Successful movies lend themselves to more movies. Our ambition is to create film franchises.”

Collider magazine says Vin Diesel is planning to star in a new movie based on Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots. Mattel has greenlit the film and hopes to fast track it once the actors and writers strike ends.
