Only Murders In the Building‘s “starriest season yet” is coming to Hulu. The comedy mystery series’ leads Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez took to the stage at the Disney upfront presentation for some hijinks and to introduce Season 4, which will premiere Aug. 27.
“Fly on the Wall” podcast with Dana Carvey and David Spade, Jerry Seinfeld said that in his directorial debut “Unfrosted” (now streaming on Netflix), he wanted Chris Rock to do a parody of the infamous Will Smith Oscars slap from the 2022 ceremony. “The other thing I wanted to do that I almost did was Chris Rock was going to be the emcee of the Bowl & Spoon Awards — and we shot that right after the Will Smith slap,” Seinfeld explained, referring to a scene in “Unfrosted.” “I was going to have somebody come up on the stage and have Chris punch ’em out as they got there.”But, Seinfeld added that so soon after the event, Rock “wasn’t up to perform.” Following the infamous moment when Smith slapped Rock at the live broadcast, Rock laid low from the limelight for a while, and Smith was banned from the Oscars for 10 years.
Zack Sharf Digital News Director Jerry Seinfeld revealed during a recent interview on the “Fly on the Wall” podcast (via People) that he wanted Chris Rock to parody the infamous Oscars slap in his feature directorial debut “Unfrosted,” which recently premiered on Netflix. The issue was that Seinfeld filmed the comedy movie not long after the March 2022 Oscars, and Rock was allegedly feeling too “shook” to be able to perform in the movie. “The other thing I wanted to do that I almost did was Chris Rock was going to be the emcee of the Bowl & Spoon Awards — and we shot that right after the Will Smith slap,” Seinfeld explained.

Rance Collins For director, co-writer and star Jerry Seinfeld, “Unfrosted” was an opportunity to bring something a little less serious to the entertainment zeitgeist. A humorless life without the ability to make fun of ourselves, he postured, doesn’t make for “good living.” “Don’t give up laughing and humor and comedy in your life. It’s the best way to get through life,” Seinfeld said.
From Barbra Streisand awkwardly asking Melissa McCarthy if she uses Ozempic to Charlie Sheen accidentally tweeting his cellphone number to millions of social media followers, celebrity online flubs have long been present on the internet. And they keep getting wilder. Some celebrities have caught backlash, while others fully embraced the public embarrassment and joined in on the fun.
Bravo to Jessie James Decker!
It’s always important to separate the filmmaker from the film and ignore all the related nonsense around releasing a new movie. So, when someone like comedian Jerry Seinfeld makes a broad and flippant statement about the film industry being “over” and chastising those who work in it for being earnest, diligent in their craft, and clueless about their impending demise, you have to just dash it to the rocks and move on.
