Rebecca Rubin Film and Media Reporter Tyler Perry is directing the movie “Black, White & Blue,” a police brutality drama that will be released by Amazon. It’s the first film at Amazon Studios under the filmmaker’s four-picture deal that was forged back in November. In addition to directing, Perry will write and produce “Black, White & Blue,” which is set to star Kat Graham (“The Vampire Diaries”), Tyler Lepley (“Harlem”), Meagan Tandy (“Batwoman”), Josh Adeyeye (“Ruthless”), RonReaco Lee (“First Wives Club”), Jimi Stanton (“Your Honor”), Shannon LaNier (“God’s Not Dead 3”) and Nick Barrotta (“The Oval”). The story follows a woman named Fela Blackburn (Tandy), whose life is shattered when she loses her husband, Rodney Blackburn (Adeyeye), at the hands of a police officer.
Here’s the logline: “Determined to get to the bottom of the incident and seek justice, she leans on her best friend, Marley Wells (Graham), who is a lawyer, and her husband, Tony Wells (Lepley), who is a former cop turned private investigator, to use their influence to find the truth. But as the truth unfolds, Fela learns that her entire world is rooted in lies and betrayal.” Tyler Perry Studios executives Angi Bones and Will Areu will also serve as producers with Jamall Ellzy. Perry’s pact with Amazon does not mean he’s working exclusively with the streamer. He’s also currently directing “Six Triple Eight,” a WWII drama starring Kerry Washington and Oprah Winfrey, and the Kelly Rowland-led thriller “Mea Culpa” for Netflix. Perry’s last few films, “A Jazzman’s Blues,” “A Madea Homecoming” and “A Fall from Grace,” were released by Netflix. He also created the “Madea” franchise, whose 11 films about a tough-talking, gun-toting grandmother have grossed

own wheel of fortune.A “lawyered up” White, 66, won’t continue her long run on “Wheel of Fortune” unless she makes at least half of what Pat Sajak has been making, according to a new report from TMZ.“After 41 years as a model employee and more the face of that show than [Pat], asking for 50% of what he makes seems like a no-brainer,” a source close to White told the outlet.Sajak, 76, has hosted “Wheel” since 1981, while White joined the show a year later as the iconic letter-turner.Amid Sajak’s retirement, Seacrest has been named the new host of “Wheel of Fortune,” The Post confirmed Tuesday.But while Seacrest said he “can’t wait to continue the tradition of spinning the wheel and working alongside the great Vanna White,” it remains unclear if White will join Seacrest, salary depending.Sources told TMZ that White is negotiating for the pay disparity between her and Sajak to be addressed considering they are essentially co-hosts of the beloved game show. In fact, they are even introduced on the show as equals: “Here are the stars of our show, Pat Sajak and Vanna White.”TMZ also confirmed that White’s salary is $3 million a year — and that she hasn’t gotten a single pay increase for the last 18 years.Since 2005, White has received only bonuses, not raises, according to Puck News.Meanwhile, Sajak reportedly makes about $15 million a year — five times the amount as his counterpart.

While White currently brings in about $3 million per year, according to Puck, Sajak was making nearly five times that amount. Let's not forget that Sajak and White started hosting Wheel of Fortune together at the same time nearly 41 years ago. I would argue that in that time White has become way more iconic for her role on the show than Sajak has.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Argentinian filmmaker Lucrecia Martel (“Zama”) was one of several female directors courted by Marvel Studios to direct “Black Widow,” the comic book tentpole centered on Scarlett Johansson’s assassin. Martel revealed in 2018 that she turned down the project after a meeting with Marvel in which the studio told her to focus on character and not the action scenes. In a recent interview with The Film Stage, Martel confessed she never ended up seeing “Black Widow.” “No, no, no — I didn’t see ‘Black Widow.’ I tried to,” Martel said. “They contacted a great number of female directors. I never would have imagined that Marvel could contact and bring together a pool of directors and I would be a part of it; I never thought that would be possible. I would have loved to make a film with them but I would have had to provide something that I would like to see in that world.”
