Kate Aurthur administrator Earlier on Friday, Bravo announced from BravoCon that Season 11 of “Vanderpump Rules” will premiere in January. That raises a big question: After a 10th season that concluded in June, during which the show became a ratings smash, a pop culture sensation and an eventual Emmy nominee — all because of the cheating scandal within the show that captured the nation’s fickle attention — where will the Bravo series go after the #Scandoval? One place it seemingly won’t be going, at least as far as the BravoCon audience was concerned, is redemption for cast member Tom Sandoval, who last year had an affair with his former castmate Rachel Leviss — thereby blowing up his relationship with his longtime girlfriend, Ariana Madix.
Austin Butler and Tom Hardy Drama ‘The Bikeriders’ Delays Theatrical Release Due to Strike
17.10.2023 - 18:21 / variety.com
Rebecca Rubin Film and Media Reporter “The Bikeriders,” a drama starring Austin Butler, Jodie Comer, and Tom Hardy and directed by Jeff Nichols, has been delayed amid the ongoing actors’ strike. Disney and 20th Century were scheduled to open the film on Dec. 1 but it’s been taken off the calendar for now.

After last week’s talks between the major studios and the guild had ended poorly, Disney and 20th Century opted to pause the campaign for “The Bikeriders,” knowing that Butler, Comer and Hardy would be key in raising the profile of the film. Adapted from Danny Lyon’s book, “The Bikeriders” follows the rise and fall of a fictional 1960s motorcycle club in the Midwest.
Michael Shannon, Mike Faist, and Norman Reedus round out the ensemble. In Variety’s review of “The Bikeriders,” chief film critic Peter Debruge praised the lead performances of Butler (“a born movie star”) and Hardy (“giving us two Marlon Brando performances for the price of one”).
