LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Could the next "House of Cards" be coming to your phone? That's what Verizon hopes now that it's paid more than $100 million for a piece of the online-video studio AwesomenessTV. It's the latest attempt by a maturing, mainstream corporation to find growth in non-traditional video programming that can reach younger audiences on smartphones and tablets. In 2014, for instance, Disney acquired online-video producer Maker Studios for a tab that eventually hit $625 million. An AT&T joint venture... NEW YORK -- Screen Actors Guild–American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) and the ANA-4A’s Joint Policy Committee on Broadcast Talent Union Relations (JPC) have reached a tentative agreement on successor television and radio commercials contracts, subject to approval by the SAG-AFTRA National Board of Directors later this month. Key details of the agreement, including the number of years it covers, were not disclosed at press time. Gabrielle Carteris, who became SAG-AFTRA acting... LONDON -- After 20 years at Saatchi & Saatchi, Pablo Del Campo, has stepped down from his post as worldwide creative director of the network. He will be replaced by Kate Stanners, currently chief creative officer at Saatchi & Saatchi, London. Stanners will serve as global CCO while retaining her London role. Del Campo said: “It has been an enormous privilege for me to have developed so many ‘ideas bigger than ads’ in a space as inspiring as Saatchi & Saatchi, hand in hand with the most... LONDON -- Bicoastal Skunk has opened an office in London, hiring producer Kate Taylor to serve as UK managing director and securing indie firm OB Management (headed by founder Otis Bell) for representation. Additionally, recently joining Skunk’s worldwide roster is director Jim Hosking who was previously handled by Hungry Man. His ad credits span such brands as Coca-Cola, Cadbury and X-Box. He becomes Skunk’s first London-based director. Hosking--whose first feature film, The Greasy Strangler --recently... By Lindsey Bahr, Film Writer
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Director Richard Linklater remembers the year 1980 as a breezy, fun and raunchy time. It was also the end of an era - the last gasp of the "utter hedonistic abandonment" of the 1970s before the conservative cultural backlash of the new decade was to take hold. But the college freshman of his latest film "Everybody Wants Some!!" didn't know that. The draft was long over. "Just Say No" hadn't yet been introduced. In the fall of 1980 at a small Texas college, everything was still a party -... By Sandy Cohen, Entertainment Writer
WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif. (AP) -- Standing on "The Tonight Show" stage with his trumpet in hand, Don Cheadle wondered to himself why he agreed to this. What was he thinking when he said he'd perform with the show's Grammy-winning house band, The Roots? Nerves threatened to rumple his perfectly tailored suit. Cheadle had been diligently studying the trumpet to play Miles Davis in his new biopic, "Miles Ahead." He spent a decade mired in Davis as he developed, produced, co-wrote and eventually directed and starred in the film... NEW YORK -- Pete Johnson has been named to serve as executive creative director at Deutsch New York.

Deutsch NY CEO Val Di Febo described Johnson as "an idea-driven creative with a focus on craftsmanship and his mixed-media approach make him a... LOS ANGELES -- Commercial production company Native Content, founded by Tomer DeVito in 2008, has grown its directorial roster, adding Rich Lee, Russ Lamoureux and the sibling duo The Cronenweths. They join a Native lineup which includes directors Ben Jacks, Tom Dey and creative collective The Work.

LOS ANGELES -- Comedy director Roderick Fenske has joined FANCY Content--the shop headed by founder/executive producer Robert Wherry--for commercials and branded content. Fenske brings an agency creative pedigree to the director’s chair. He’s among the select American agency creatives to find success in London where he was a creative director at TBWA\Chiat\Day. Previously he held creative posts at St. Luke’s and HHCL in London. He first began directing his own scripts while at St. Luke’s, and continued to... By Ryan Nakashima, Business Writer
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Tom Staggs, the presumed front-runner to replace Bob Iger as CEO of The Walt Disney Co., is leaving the company next month. The surprise announcement Monday means Disney will have to look further for Iger's successor after he steps down in June 2018, a date the popular chief executive has extended twice. Staggs, a 26-year Disney veteran and its chief operating officer, had been assumed to be on track for the top job after the next leading candidate, Jay Rasulo, resigned last June as chief...

What if a young man who just lost his young wife in a car accident experienced none of the stages of grief? What if he felt nothing? What if he, instead, started writing letters to a vending machine company and dismantling every object in sight? Perhaps that's just a person coasting in denial, but, to buy that, you would have to believe that the person also had some sort of humanity in the first place. In the case of Davis Mitchell (Jake Gyllenhaal) in director Jean-Marc Vallée's ambitious,... RICHMOND, Va -- Beth Rilee-Kelley, chief operating officer, has been named president of The Martin Agency while retaining her COO duties and title. Rilee-Kelley is a 33-year veteran of the company.

NEW YORK (AP) -- It's the world's oldest profession. It's very popular with amateurs. With or without money changing hands, sex reigns as a transaction that stimulates no end of longing, curiosity and obsession. No wonder "The Girlfriend Experience" should seduce viewers with this business of companionship between a high-end female escort and her satisfied clients. A dramatic series of 13 half-hours premiering on Starz with two episodes Sunday at 8 p.m. EDT, "The Girlfriend Experience" comes from producer... By Nekesa Mumbi Moody, Entertainment Writer
NEW YORK (AP) -- When Tyler Perry began creating shows for the then-struggling OWN Network four years ago, he'd send the scripts he'd written to Oprah Winfrey for approval - and she'd wince. "I would say, 'I think that's too much! It's over the top! Oh my God, I can't believe this is happening!'" Winfrey recounts about Perry's first OWN show, "The Haves and Have Nots," a prime-time drama fueled by connivers, sex and blackmail, now in its fourth season. Others might have acquiesced to Winfrey. But not Perry. "He... Computer system enables him to type out words through eye movements, communicating to his documentary collaborators

CHELSEA, Mass. (AP) -- Patrick O'Brien was a young, budding New York City filmmaker and DJ known as "TransFatty" when his legs suddenly started trembling uncontrollably. Walking became a struggle. He'd lose his balance and often fall down. Then, in 2005, came the diagnosis: amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or ALS. The 30-year-old native of Kensington, Maryland, was given two to five years to live. But rather than let it defeat him, O'Brien - whose DJ name came from his love of junk food - turned the cameras on himself... HBO documentary offers insights from her son, Anderson Cooper

NEW YORK (AP) -- For much of his career, CNN's Anderson Cooper rarely talked publicly about being Gloria Vanderbilt's son. He wasn't ashamed. Cooper just didn't want the baggage, the assumption that his life was set because he was a descendant of Cornelius Vanderbilt, one of the world's richest business magnates of the 1800s. Since he has the last name of his father, actor Wyatt Cooper, it was easy to keep this quiet. All of that changes with "Nothing Left Unsaid," a documentary that premieres Saturday on HBO (... 6 Winners Span 5 Countries: Australia, Japan, Norway, The Netherlands and UK
CANNES, France -- The International Academy of Television Arts & Sciences has annouced and honored the winners of the 4th International Emmy® Kids Awards which took place for the first time at MIPTV, in Cannes, in partnership with Reed MIDEM.

NEW YORK (AP) -- A cliffhanger ending to its sixth season fascinated more than 14 million viewers of “The Walking Dead,” although AMC’s blockbuster hit continued to show some signs of erosion. During the final episode on Sunday, new villain Negan killed someone with a barbed wire bat he named Lucille. Viewers will have to wait until next season to find out who he killed, however. It was down from the 15.8 million who watched the fifth season finale on the night it aired, and didn’t approach the 17.3 million who... By Lindsey Bahr, Film Writer
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Word of mouth might be kryptonite for "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice," which fell a steep 68 percent in its second weekend in theaters according to comScore estimates Sunday. The superhero pic earned an estimated $52.4 million over the weekend, easily besting the modest new openers like "God's Not Dead 2" and "Meet the Blacks." The Zack Snyder movie cost a reported $250 million to produce and around $150 million to market, and has earned an estimated $261.5 million to date. It's a critical... Starting out as what could well be a brand film for an athletic equipment/apparel company, this short features soccer balls from around the world. Then the action takes an unexpected and disturbing turn, revealing a boy with a missing limb. He asks us if we saw the bomb, adding that “I didn’t.” He then points out a cluster-bomblet which actually looks much like a ball. A message then appears on screen which reads: “Unexploded ordnance and mines kill or maim children just playing ball.” This... This poignant animated short, Scarlett , is for Scarlett Contra El Cancer, a Miami-based foundation seeking to increase awareness of cancer affecting children throughout the U.S. and Latin America. Produced by NY-based the STUDIO, the film introduces us to a despondent little girl, Scarlett, searching for a way to belong and feel like she did before the amputation of a leg. She finds that way through dance. This message is in line with Scarlett Contra El Cancer’s belief in the power of... To put a spotlight on Chinese women being labeled as “Sheng Nu”--translated to “leftover women” used to stigmatize unmarried women over 25--international skincare brand SK-II premieres the film “Marriage Market Takeover” directed by Floyd Russ of Tool for agency Forsman & Bodenfors, Stockholm. The campaign aims to emphasize that everyone should have the freedom to marry for love and not because of undue pressure from family and society. In the film, women who feel alienated and ostracized--... Directed by Jason Fialkov of Egg Films for the Western Cape Government and agency Y&R Cape Town, this PSA titled “First Kiss” tells the story of a young couple at a party, who spend their night trying to kiss but keep being interrupted. The final interruption turns a straightforward love story into a shocking road safety ad. The Safely Home campaign by Y&R Cape Town has sparked heated discussions across traditional media and social networks about both the importance of wearing your... This short film titled Mom Talk is part of a digital series of trailers directed by Arturo Perez Jr. to promote Samantha Jayne’s book "Quarter Life Poetry: Poems for the Young, Broke and Hangry." The trailers offer candid, humorous insights into Millennials and their struggles on such fronts as jaded friends, lonely nights, workplace malaise and the like. In Mom Talk , we meet a 20-something woman who’s constantly calling her mom on the phone, asking questions such as what’s a W9, what’s a... Jason Statham’s surreal world of play is front and center in this launch spot for LG Mobile’s “Life’s Good When You Play More” integrated campaign out of Energy BBDO. Directed by Fredrik Bond of MJZ, the commercial, titled “World of Play,” has Statham portraying himself as well as a number of other characters ranging from a baby engrossed in an umbrella sword fight to a long haired Statham surfing on a herd of bulls. Throughout the story, the LG G5 is positioned as a catalyst for play, and the... A man applies lipstick, blush, eye shadow and the like to his face, struggles into a pair of tights, then a frilly skirt, dons a wig of golden locks, a pair of angel wings and voile, we have a fairy dadmother ready to perform at a party--much to the delight of his young daughter who laughs joyously to see her pop looking more like her mom. Dads will indeed do anything for their daughters, including looking to the future and making financial plans for their children’s college education at Chase... Andreas Roth (who is handled in the U.S. by RSA Films, and in the UK by RiffRaff) directed this FILA spot titled “Playground”--produced by Germany’s Tempomedia for agency Markenloft--which captures the spirit and relentless competitive spirit of athletes spanning varied sports. FILA athletes strive to find the perfect playground to challenge themselves and realize their full potential, exhibiting determination and self-sacrifice in their training and preparation. The production entailed three-... To promote Volvo’s new XC90 T8 Twin Engine, we see that this SUV is the first plug-in hybrid to be powered by gas, electricity and other vehicles. Over a two-day stretch in Southern California, Volvo and Grey NY used a custom peristaltic pump placed over the roadway that, when vehicles drove over it, generated electricity to fuel a nearby charging station to which the XC90 T8 was connected. Chronicling this unique transfer of power was this film titled Highway Robbery produced by 1stAveMachine... For client Booking.com, Wieden+Kennedy created this fictitious campaign based on the real wedding of comedian/actors Jordan Peele and Chelsea Peretti.
