I'm very pleased with how they turned out.»The show, inspired by true events, tells the story of Jimmy Keene (played by Egerton), who is sentenced to 10 years in prison for various criminal activities, but then is given a fateful choice: Either he can stay in his minimum-security prison and serve the whole sentence or enter a maximum-security prison to befriend suspected serial killer Larry Hall (Paul Walter Houser), in exchange for a reduced sentence.Houser walked the red carpet wearing a T-shirt featuring Liotta's character from , and reflected on how big a fan he was of Liotta's amazing body of work.«So many great performances he left behind.

He’s sort of funny without knowing he’s funny sometimes. It was a real joy to be in his presence that short time.»Greg Kinnear, who plays a

Black Bird as his “most fully realised” working relationship ever with another cast member.The actor plays Liotta’s on-screen son, James Keene, in the Apple TV+ series, based on the autobiographical novel In With The Devil: A Fallen Hero, A Serial Killer, And A Dangerous Bargain For Redemption by Keene and Hillel Levin.The series marks Liotta’s final TV appearance following his death aged 67 in May.

Blake Appelqvist, one of the stars of the musical Bonnie & Clyde, currently playing at the revered Hayes Theatre, had a flying chat with Star Observer. We quickly got down to business when Appelqvist replied to a question asked about any possible differences in how they, as a non-binary actor, approach the role of a storied, married, heterosexual man from America’s past compared to other roles they’ve tackled, such as Oaken in Frozen or an Angel in Kinky Boots.“So it is a little bit of a freedom to be non-binary and playing a role that is not necessarily specified as whether or not he’s non-binary or if he’s binary presenting but I think it’s good and I feel like there should be more non-binary and gender non-conforming people playing cis-presenting roles.

Apple TV+.The six-episode drama, adapted from James Keene’s 2010 book, “In With The Devil,” revolves around Keene (Taron Egerton, “Rocket Man”), a charismatic, armed-to-the-teeth Chicago drug dealer and son of an ex-cop (Ray Liotta in his final role) who, in 1996, is busted and sentenced to 10 years in prison.Shortly thereafter, he’s offered a deal: transfer to a maximum-security prison in Missouri and befriend high-talking, mutton-chopped serial killer Larry Hall (Paul Walter Hauser, “Richard Jewell”). If he can elicit a confession from the next-level-creepy Hall, who’s suspected in the murders of at least 14 young girls, Keene’s sentence will be commuted.
