Variety has learned that the Warner Bros. Discovery CEO convened a call with the trio of top filmmakers on Wednesday for guidance following the departure of top TCM execs, including general manager Pola Changnon, who stepped down after more than 25 years with the network and Turner.

A new "Jeopardy!" category left fans furious after the clues stumped all three contestants during Monday night's show. Host Mayim Bialik introduced the movie mashups category, but the contestants didn't seem to pick up the hints. The $1,200 clue read, "You stay classy, Kali! A 2004 San Diego news anchorman "&" a 1984 Indiana Jones title structure." None of the contestants attempted to guess, and the correct answer was revealed as "Ron Burgundy and The Temple of Doom." The $1,600 clue was "An Alan Rickman ‘Die Hard’ villain ‘wants those detonators’ from a title Great Dane of 2002!" One contestant gave it a try and incorrectly answered, "Hans Gruber Beethoven." Bialik informed them the correct answer was "Hans Gruber and Scooby-Doo." "That movie category was horrendous," one Twitter user wrote.

The switch comes after 20th TV Animation and Hulu Originals cut ties with Roiland in January after he was charged with felony domestic violence related to an incident that first surfaced in a January 2020 criminal complaint. The charges against Roiland were later dropped in March.

Brent Lang Executive Editor Steven Soderbergh starts things off with an apology. His assistant is on vacation, and he was certain that our interview was scheduled to start a full 15 minutes after it was supposed to commence. That resulted in a mad scramble of calls text messages to track down the filmmaker. “I was just sitting here staring off into space,” he says. It must have been a rare moment of calm for the always-on-the-move director, who a has averaged at least one movie or series a year since reemerging from a short-lived retirement in 2017. And he’s back again this summer with “Full Circle,” a six-part miniseries that premieres at the Tribeca Festival before launching on Max on July 13. It’s a morally complex story about a botched kidnapping that causes several characters’ lives to intersect in surprising ways. It’s also a fascinating portrait of modern-day New York City, one that showcases a privileged Manhattan family (Claire Danes and Timothy Olyphant play the guardians of a business that revolves around Dennis Quaid’s celebrity chef), as well as a pair of Guyanese kidnappers who are deployed by CCH Pounder’s shadowy business woman to exact revenge. “Full Circle” is the kind of knotty thriller that Soderbergh, a master of the genre, does such a great job of setting and then unwinding. To say more would be to spoil its pleasures.
