Devery Jacobs Latest Celebrity News & Gossip

Leo Barraclough International Features Editor Berlin-based Picture Tree Intl. has added “This Place,” by Canadian debut director V.T. Nayani, to its lineup. The film is to have its world premiere at Toronto Film Festival on Sept. 9 as part of the Discovery and Next Wave Selects sections. The film stars Devery Jacobs, who was the lead actor in “Reservation Dogs” and the upcoming Marvel Studio production “Echo,” and newcomer Priya Guns. The screenplay was co-written by V.T. Nayani, Devery Jacobs and Golshan Abdmoulaie. It tells the story of two young women falling in love for the first time and being jointly challenged by their own family histories, which bear the legacies of loss, migration and displacement.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director “Killers of the Flower Moon” star Lily Gladstone recently joined Rolling Stone for an interview in which she was asked to weigh in on the heated criticism of the film made by “Reservation Dogs” actor Devery Jacobs, who Gladstone said is a friend. Gladstone also appeared on “Reservation Dogs.” Jacobs is a fellow Indigenous actor best known for playing Elora on three seasons of the FX and Hulu comedy series. She called out “Flower Moon” last October for not portraying its Osage characters with “honor or dignity” and for further dehumanizing them by depicting their deaths.

Emmys were originally slated for Sept. 18 but were postponed to Jan. 15 due to the historic WGA and SAG-Aftra strikes.

Marvel’s new limited series, “Echo,” is deeply frustrating, a show with good intentions and poor aim. Ostensibly full of depth but never hitting the bullseye— seemingly about the complicated emotional agonies of families, adopted, found, and betrayed and the burdens of trauma—most of it is told without meaningful resonance.

After she made her first appearance in the Disney+ original series “Hawkeye” in 2021, the superhuman Echo has been a fan-favorite. So much so that Marvel Studios gave the character her own miniseries, which drops on Tuesday, Jan.

The first striking element you might notice about Marvel’s new Disney+ crime series, “Echo,” is that it’s darker, grittier, more mature, and has a TV-MA rating (Mature Audience Only. Intended for adults and may be unsuitable for children under 17).

After a particularly brutal year for the brand, Marvel manages to end 2023 on a last-minute positive note with the animated series “What If…?” The series continues to surprise and even disarm the viewer with the unexpected. Just when you think it’s content to provide simply entertaining fan-service-y alternative multiverse stories of your favorite with a twist— and it surely can do that too— it turns and deepens leveraging the freedom of the inventive, imagined what-if presentation to tell darker, richer versions of Marvel Cinematic Universe tales, often with a meaningfully tragic bent that really compel.

Marvel Studios’ upcoming series Echo is coming soon and the show is set to make history in multiple ways!

At its LA premiere last week, Osage community members who worked on Martin Scorsese‘s “Killers Of The Flower Moon” expressed reservations about its depiction of the Osage Nation tribe. But their feedback isn’t nearly as harsh as how “Reservation Dogs” star Devery Jacobs feels about the new film.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Devery Jacobs, the Indigenous actor best known for playing Elora on three seasons of FX and Hulu’s “Reservation Dogs,” took to X (formerly Twitter) to share the “strong feelings” she had about Martin Scorsese’s “Killers of the Flower Moon.” She called out the $200 million Western crime epic for not portraying its Osage characters with “honor or dignity” and for further dehumanizing them by depicting their deaths. The film is based on a true story and centers around the Reign of Terror, a term given to the murders of at least 60 members of the Osage nation in the late 1920s.

High school is challenging, competitive, and traumatic enough as it is. But in “Backspot,” the new feature-length directorial effort and cheerleading drama from filmmaker D.W.

It’s hard to believe that viewers will have to say goodbye to “Reservation Dogs” already. Premiering in 2021 on FX, it feels like we’re still just getting to know Elora (Devery Jacobs), Bear (D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai), Willie Jack (Paulina Alexis), and Cheese (Lane Factor).

Last week, FX confirmed that the third season of its critically acclaimed series “Reservation Dogs” would be its last. It’s the second TV program about indigenous communities after Peacock‘s “Rutherford Falls” to get the ax recently.

“Reservation Dogs” actress Devery Jacobs is opening up about immense pressure that comes with being cast in a Marvel project, specifically regarding her role in the forthcoming Disney+ show “Echo”.

Marvel is launching a new binging strategy on Disney+.

Amber Dowling Principal photography has kicked off on “Backspot,” the upcoming queer cheerleading film starring Devery Jacobs (“Reservation Dogs”) and newcomer Kudakwashe Rutendo as the leads. It will mark helmer D.W. Waterson (“That’s My DJ”) directorial feature debut. The film is expected to shoot until mid-March in the Toronto area. The film hails from Elliot Page’s Page Boy Productions, Night is Y and Prospero Pictures, and was written by Joanne Sarazen, based on a story by Waterson. Page, Matthew Jordan Smith, John Davidson, and Katisha Shaw executive produce; Alona Metzer, Waterson, Jacobs and Martin Katz board as producers. “Backspot” revolves around two young cheerleaders, Riley (Jacobs) and Amanda (Rutendo). Both are impressive members of their mid-level cheerleading squad until a professional coach gives them a chance to level up with The Thunderhawks. There, they must learn to “negotiate their space, find their voices, and come to an understanding with the generation of women who came before them,” according to the film’s logline.

This Friday, September 30th marks Canada’s first National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, a public commemoration of the tragic and painful history and ongoing impacts of residential schools. In recognition of this important day, ET Canada is welcoming back entrepreneur and activist Shayla Stonechild to co-host our half-hour TV special “Indigenous Artists & Icons: Celebrating the Future”.

Comedies often defy the concept of the sophomore slump and actually improve in their second seasons as the writers learn how to write for the timing of their characters, and everyone gains confidence through the mandate of a renewal. It’s hard to believe that FX’s “Reservation Dogs,” one of the best comedies of 2021, could get better, but the first four episodes of season two display little sign of decline, hinting at a year that could be even emotionally richer than the first.
