Dania Ramirez (Sweet Tooth) has been tapped as the lead in Fox’s Alert, a character-driven police procedural from The Blacklist showrunner John Eisendrath and Jamie Foxx. Written by Eisendrath, Alert is a co-production between Sony Pictures Television, where Eisendrath is under an overall deal, and Fox Entertainment.
Alert is about the LAMPU — the Los Angeles Police Department’s missing person’s unit. When police officer Nikki Parker’s (Ramirez) son goes missing, she joins the LAPD’s Missing Person’s Unit to help other people find their loved ones, even as she searches for her own. Six years later, her world is turned upside-down when her ex-husband, Devon Zoellner, shows up with a proof-of-life photo of their missing boy. Or is it? The series is a procedural drama with a search for a missing person in each episode, that runs alongside the overarching storyline of Nikki and Devon’s quest to find out the truth about the person claiming to be their long-lost son.
Ramirez’s Nikki is a salt-of-the-earth woman whose life was ripped apart by the disappearance of her 11-year-old son, and found her calling as the head of the Missing Person’s Unit. Her zeal and personal connection to the victims and their families infuses each and every case, and she helps others find their loved ones even as she couldn’t find her own.
Eisendrath serves as showrunner and executive produces alongside Foxx and Datari Turner.
Ramirez recently wrapped shooting Season 2 of Netflix’s Sweet Tooth, in which she co-stars as Aimee. She also teamed with Eva Longoria on Sisters of the Underground, an eight-episode scripted podcast with iHeartMedia. Ramirez and Longoria executive produce the podcast, which follows the true story of three courageous women, known

K.J. Yossman Banijay Rights has set a new returning drama series titled “Runners” with writer John Preston (pictured above, left) and exec producer Ellie Wood (pictured above, right) of Clearwood Films, the team behind “Stonehouse” and “The Dig.” “Runners” tells the story of the world’s first police force, the Bow Street Runners, who were formed in the 1740s in London, which at the time was facing a colossal crime wave. The Chief Magistrate of London at the time, Heny Fielding (who also happened to be a celebrated novelist), decided to take on this criminal underworld by assembling a group of police.“This extraordinary story will tell of how a group of just six police officers, none with any training or experience, set about imposing law and order on a completely lawless society and embarked on solving one of the strangest cases of its time – one with momentous political and social ramifications,” reads the logline.
It’s over. After four years together, Leonardo DiCaprio and girlfriend Camila Marrone have split, Us Weekly can confirm.
If you close your eyes and listen to the latest episode of the "Rap Radar" podcast, who do you hear? Is it the voice of 45th President Donald J.Trump or Academy Award-winner Jamie Foxx? If you're confused, you're likely not alone, as Foxx delivered an eerie impersonation of Trump, using catchphrases like "fake news" to bolster his riff. On the podcast to promote his Netflix film, "Day Shift" with Snoop Dogg, Foxx is seen getting into character, gesticulating in a manner that is reminiscent of Trump, and exclaiming, "excuse me," every time someone interrupted him. Snoop Dogg, who is seated next to Foxx, is seen breaking out in laughter alongside the podcast hosts, Elliott Wilson and Brian ‘B.Dot’ Miller. Jamie Foxx, pictured with John Legend in 2019, has also done an excellent impersonation of the EGOT winner.
Close your eyes and you can almost imagine the visual of former President Donald Trump praising Death Row Records. That’s how good Jamie Foxx’s imitation of Trump is in a clip that’s virally circulating.
