Exclusive: Kelvin Harrison Jr. Joins Cast of 'The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping'

Happy Monday, folks!

I just got out of Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning, and I’ll have a full review for paid subscribers on Wednesday afternoon, so now is the time to upgrade, IMF-ers!

Yesterday, I spent the day watching Vince Vaughn’s new Netflix comedy Nonnas in honor of Mother’s Day, and I found it both charming and delightful. It even got me choked up at the end. Vaughn is perfectly cast here, as are the four Nonnas — Susan Sarandon, Lorraine Bracco, Talia Shire, and Brenda Vaccaro — and let me tell you something else: At 78 years young, Sarandon has still got it. I’m not surprised that Nonnas turned out better than expected, seeing as how it hails from Stephen Chbosky (Perks of Being a Wallflower).

I spent the rest of the day finishing Taron Egerton’s upcoming Apple TV+ series Smoke and reading Joseph Wambaugh’s true-crime book Fire Lover, which you should avoid if you want to go into this series spoiler-free. I’m not allowed to write about Smoke for another month, but I’ll be sure to let you know when a trailer debuts.

Tonight, I return from The Hob with a cool scoop about the next Hunger Games movie, which is putting together one hell of a cast.
