Supporters from the Writers Guild Of America are not too happy with Kim Kardashian right now!
On Friday, the 42-year-old reality star hopped on Twitter to ask her 74.9 million followers “what [they were] all up to” while she had “some time between shots” for season 12 of American Horror Story. The problem with her seemingly innocuous tweet? Since the beginning of May, thousands of screenwriters involved with the WGA have been protesting after the union was unable to reach a contract with the trade association that represents Hollywood studios and production companies.

The WGA was making some pretty reasonable demands – including asking for higher minimum sales, shorter exclusive contracts for released content, and more. They also want to make sure studios won’t start replacing them with AI. All of these terms the WGA have argued are essential after streaming took over the entertainment industry. So it seems like some simple requests, right? Well, the studios were unwilling to accept these conditions, and thus writers have been striking ever since.

Selome Hailu Cooper Koch and Nicholas Alexander Chavez have been cast in Season 2 of Ryan Murphy’s “Monster,” Variety has learned. They will play the Menéndez brothers in the Netflix anthology series, which told the story of Jeffrey Dahmer (Evan Peters) in Season 1. Netflix confirmed the subject and title of “Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story” in May.

(It was surpassed by “Wednesday” in December; then recently, Netflix began ranking viewership by estimated viewers instead of total hours viewed, putting “Dahmer” at No. 3 behind “Wednesday” and “Stranger Things” Season 4.)

Ryan Murphy looks to be heading back to Disney.
Ryan Murphy is racing back to his old stomping grounds, and in the process of re-joining longtime collaborator Dana Walden under a new overall deal at Disney. The decision to reunite with Walden — now the co-chairman of Disney Entertainment — comes five years after Murphy ankled 20th Century Fox TV for a rich deal at Netflix that was reportedly valued at the time at between $250 million-$300 million. That deal came right before Disney acquired 20th Century Fox and Walden, who at the time was Fox Television Group chairman-CEO.
