When Does 13 Reasons Why Season 2 Premiere? Here's What We Know
Ever since Netflix officially renewed 13 Reasons Why for season two in May 2017, fans have been anxiously awaiting the show's premiere date. While we already know that production started this past Summer and that some new faces have been added to the mix, Netflix has only confirmed that the show will return in 2018 for a 13-episode run. However, given that production wrapped up in December, it looks like we could be getting a Spring or Summer release. Fingers crossed!
According to Netflix, the show will pick up "in the aftermath of Hannah Baker's death and the start of the characters' complicated journeys toward healing and recovery." Katherine Langford recently told EW that we should expect to "see a very different Hannah," while Dylan Minnette hinted that Clay might be getting a new love interest while speaking to Us Weekly back in August. Guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens when 13 Reasons Why returns.

14 Things We Know About The Handmaid's Tale Season 2
We're officially in some new fresh hell in 2018, and when it comes to The Handmaid's Tale, we're already looking ahead. If you read the book, you'll know that the first season finale ends in the same frustrating way the book ends: June is taken into a mysterious van and carted off to a mysterious future somewhere else. In this case, though, we don't have to wonder endlessly. The story will continue. Since we're venturing into uncharted territory beyond the books, the sky is pretty much the limit. How much can we uncover about the show's next chapter? Well, blessed be the fruit - we've got a lot to go over. Let's see what we could uncover (under his eye).
1. It's Going to Be Longer
While the first season was 10 episodes, the second has been extended to 13.
2. Alexis Bledel Will Reprise Her Role
Thought you'd seen the last of Ofglen/Emily? Not so fast. Bledel has been confirmed as part of season two's cast! We'll get a glimpse of Ofglen in the Colonies, the toxic wasteland where women who commit crimes are sent as punishment. "We get to see the colonies. It's a terrible place where they send Unwomen to work them to death," executive producer Bruce Miller said during a pre-Emmy panel in August. Bledel also commented on her character's new situation, saying, "I'm very interested to see what that looks like because it's a completely different world we haven't seen on the show yet - and I'm scared."
3. The Colonies Are Even Bleaker and Darker Than They Sound
A new feature by Marie Claire describes the Colonies in all their grim glory. As a refresher, the Colonies are where deviants (known as Unwomen) get sent for misbehaving. The new story describes the Colonies as "a dark and grime-filled wasteland." Costume designer Ane Crabtree offered a bit more insight. "The Unwomen are kind of the new Handmaids in season two. They're turning over soil, trying to move radiation, so they get filthy," she revealed. "They have probably six months - at best two years - to live. We're trying to show that humanity in their costumes. I made beautiful sheer pieces to be worn under their outfits since they strip down, as their clothing is full of radiation." Yikes.
4. Surprise, Surprise: The President Has Inspired Parts of the Season
While season one of the show was planned before the 2016 election, the same is not true for season two. When it comes to some of Trump's "draconian policies," as Marie Claire phrases it, creator Bruce Miller can't help but incorporate today's reality into the fabric of the show. "Oh, I think we can't help but let it influence us," he said. "We have let it influence us. And there are a lot of issues we brought up last year that we want to address this year in ways we never had time to."
5. Things Are Only Going to Get Worse All Around
Earlier this month, The Pool interviewed Elisabeth Moss and grilled her on what's to come. "Wait till you see what's coming! It's going to get worse, girl. Season two is going to be bad too, really dark." Here we were, thinking June might have been rescued from the Waterfords. Maybe it's not that simple.
6. June's Romance With Nick May Intensify
Elle ran a profile of Moss in early June, and she dropped a small tidbit about her Gilead lover, Nick. "It's part of the reason that I'm really excited about a season two, she's in this position where she might be in love with two people," Moss said, "Honestly, I think she does love Nick - if I can speak for her - but I don't know if she knows that she does yet. But she has a husband who she also loves, who's the father of Hannah, who she also now knows is alive."
7. Pay Attention to the Marthas
Showrunner Bruce Miller noted, "The Marthas in general in Gilead are kind of invisible . . . it's been great for us that it's been such a slow and careful building of a relationship between Rita and Offred. That slow and careful build-up in season one leads to a payoff so that we can use her more in season two."
8. We Might See Aunt Lydia's Backstory
Meanwhile, Miller also spoke to The New York Times about season two. Aunt Lydia could still play a key role in the show's next chapter. "Aunt Lydia is one of my most fascinating characters," Miller said. "We would like to explore her back story, and what the lives of the aunts are like."
9. The Mayday Resistance Is Another Key Component, but Let's Not Get Too Excited
It's easy to assume Mayday means salvation for the Handmaids, but not so fast. "The Mayday resistance is going to be a big part of Season two," Miller admitted. "The part that I've been thinking about is that Mayday is not the handmaid rescue organization - it's the anti-Gilead organization. And the anti-Gilead organization is not necessarily a friend to June or a friend to Handmaids. If I was going to try to hurt Gilead, the first thing I might do is kill all the handmaids. You're trying to weaken the state."
10. The Waterfords Aren't Necessarily Going Away
After the finale, Miller talked about what's to come. In regards to the Waterfords, he said, "They're still a part of our plans for season two but in interesting ways."
11. We Might Meet June's Mother
Miller also explained how June's parentage could factor into the story. Miller spoke about June's mother: "We've been thinking about her a lot. June's mother is a big character in the book and representative of an interesting kind of feminism that was seemingly more of that time."
12. The Theme
"At the end of season one, we find out June was pregnant. The theme of season two is motherhood and what it means to be a mother," Miller explained at The Handmaid's Tale panel in August. "It's the way we mother our good friends and the people in our lives."
13. Luke and Moira Might Attempt a Daring Rescue
During the panel in August, Samira Wiley discussed the new possibilities season two holds since it's going beyond the story of the book. "The [first] season ends exactly where the book ends, and to be able to go in season two not knowing what's going to happen and to be in this completely new country with Luke who's the only family I have, it's exciting to see what's going to happen," she said.
14. The Premiere Date Has Been Set
The second season is going to drop in April, but there hasn't been any word on what day.
Is Black Mirror Feminist? Breaking It Down by Each Episode
The newest season of Black Mirror refreshingly centers each story around fleshed-out female characters - mind you, not only strong women, but flawed, nuanced women. I mean, what is a Black Mirror episode without dreary twists and less-than-perfect characters? From a female villain like Mia in "Crocodile" to a woman in the wild like Bella in "Metalhead," the fourth season of Black Mirror puts women at the forefront of its storytelling.
Let's break down this season to see how well Charlie Brooker develops the female characters. Just a brief warning - we have some season four spoilers ahead!
The 100: Everything We Know About Season 5
When we last left the The 100, "praimfaya," a highly radioactive fire spreading rapidly across the globe after the last nuclear reactors melt down, is threatening all of Earth's inhabitants. A bunker is protecting roughly 1200 people, a mix of people from the Ark and Grounders, while the core group of Bellamy, Murphy, Emori, Monty, Harper, Echo and Raven blast off into space to wait it out on the still-orbiting remains of the Ark. And poor Clarke, who nearly dies making it possible for her friends to escape in the shuttle, is left on the ground, presumably to die.
But her nightblood saves her, as a time jump reveals that Clarke has been living on Earth with a young nightblood girl, Madi, for the past six years. She has constantly been trying to contact the Ark, and just when she thinks they've returned to Earth, it turns out to be a prison ship . . . and it doesn't seem particularly friendly.
So, when the show picks up, what can we expect from season five?
At the 2017 San Diego Comic-Con, creator Jason Rothenberg revealed that the prison ship is from Earth, carrying prisoners from before the apocalypse 100 years ago.
"They're from our time, so they're from before the first apocalypse," he said. "That means it's probably cryo. They were in hypersleep. They've come back to this planet that they don't recognize and has been destroyed, and all that's left is this garden of Eden that Clarke's been living in, and there's not enough room for everyone."
That's obviously going to present a problem. But another problem is going to be digging the people in the bunker out from beneath the rubble. They are still alive, though. Marie Avgeropoulos revealed at SDCC that Octavia will be working hard to keep the peace among the bunker inhabitants in season five.
As for the space travelers, while we don't know exactly what shape they're going to return to Earth in, Rothenberg did tease some relationship shake-ups.
"People break up, people get back together, people fool around. They do have six years of time to kill, and there's not a lot to do," said the EP.
The creators have also revealed some specifics about the new threats our protagonists will be facing. There's a serial killer named Vinson, a cocky space pirate named Zeke, a new Big Bad named Robert McCreary, a former crime syndicate enforcer who has been a prisoner on the ship, and Banshee alum Ivana Milicevic as a military strategist named Charmaine. Side note: Banshee is an under-the-radar gem that aired on Cinemax from 2013 to 2016, so if you have some time to kill before The 100 returns on April 24, check it out.
The official trailer for season five of The 100 hasn't been released yet; CW president Mark Pedowitz told the 2018 TCA winter press tour that it will be released in March - but there is a teaser!
Yes, You Do Recognize This End of the F***ing World Star From Black Mirror
Netflix recently debuted a dark comedy following two unconventional teenagers who fall in love while on a road trip, and we're already hooked. Alex Lawther portrays one of the troubled teenagers in The End of the F***ing World, specifically a self-proclaimed psychopath named James who plans on executing his new girlfriend. Yikes!
Now that everyone is glued to the brand-new series, some people are scratching their heads wondering where they recognize the psychopathic protagonist from. He looks so familiar, right? Well, turns out he appears in the third season of Black Mirror.
Lawther stars in the third episode of the season, called "Shut Up and Dance." The narrative is set in a relatively normal world. Kenny is furious after his sister Lindsay infects his laptop with malware, and he downloads a supposed "anti-malware" program which is anything but. What the program actually does is allow a team of hackers to tap into his camera who force him to fulfill a crazed, chaotic series of demands in order to prevent an, erm, private video of himself from being leaked to the public.
I'm not going to spoil the ending for those who haven't seen it (in which case, what are you even doing??), but the episode is quite the adventure - much like his new series.
33 Bloody Brilliant Songs From The End of the F***ing World
The End of the F***ing World is in a league of its own. The new British Netflix show, which premiered Jan. 5, follows two teenage runaways as foul-mouthed Alyssa and self-diagnosed psychopath James make a break from their boring home lives, only to end up in more trouble than they bargained for. Eight episodes long, the show is dark and bloody while also maintaining a unique blend of humor and romance, a balance that plays out well partially because of the show's stellar, nostalgic music.
Like the cast, script, and look of The End of the F***ing World, the show's soundtrack is bloody amazing. Not only is the show self-aware enough to acknowledge its American influences, but the soundtrack even features songs from British artists whose sounds have roots in American blues, soul, and rock music. "Keep On Running" by 1960s-era UK band The Spencer Davis Group accompanies James and Alyssa while they themselves are on the run, and the soundtrack is riddled with doo-wop, classic rock, country, and soul songs that are enough to make you forget that the show is set in present day. At first it may seem as if James and Alyssa's grisly world is at odds with a soundtrack steeped in American of American-inspired oldies, but listen closer to the 33 songs we've compiled and it's clear why the music, like the main couple, is just crazy enough to work.
Star Wars: Everything We Know About the Han Solo Spinoff Movie
By now we all know that Han Solo is getting his own . . . wait for it . . . solo film, and although many of the important details are still deep, deep under wraps, a few tidbits about the exciting new movie have managed to leak to the general public. The latest news is that the highly-anticipated title of the film has finally been unveiled (spoiler alert: it's very, very simple). Keep reading to see all the other important information we've rounded up about the space flick so far, then check out all of the actors who were formerly in the running to play Han!
15 Shiny New Shows Coming to Netflix in 2018
Netflix is making new TV series and movies at a blistering rate, with dozens of original programs currently airing, and having announced back in October that the streaming service is going to release 80 original movies in 2018. So what shows are going to be the next Stranger Things or Orange Is the New Black? Maybe it's one of these 15 new shows coming to Netflix this year.
There's a sci-fi offering set so far in the future that human consciousness is now downloadable, there's a new anthology series that sounds a lot like American Crime (and even has Regina King as one of its stars), and there's a reboot of the 1960s series Lost in Space, which sounds funny on its face but boasts an impressive pedigree with stars Toby Stephens, Molly Parker, and Parker Posey.

A New Black Panther Trailer Is Here, and You Might Want to Sit Down Before Watching It
If you thought the Black Panther cast was jaw-droppingly gorgeous in theory, just wait until you see them all in action. Just a few months after Marvel dropped the official trailer for the upcoming superhero flick, which introduces us to Chadwick Boseman as T'Challa - the heroic man underneath the Black Panther costume - we got another look at the film during the CFP National Championship on Monday. The second trailer gives fans a new peek at Michael B. Jordan's villain, Erik Killmonger, and we also get some fierce glimpses of Lupita Nyong'o, Angela Bassett, and Danai Gurira as T'Challa's allies in Wakanda. Black Panther, directed by Ryan Coogler, hits theaters on Feb. 16. Watch the new trailer below.
Meryl Streep Says Dustin Hoffman "Overstepped" During Infamous Kramer vs. Kramer Slap Scene
Over the past few months, Hollywood has been hit with wave after wave of disturbing rape and sexual assault claims lauded against some of the movie industry's biggest players. The repeated claims birthed the #MeToo movement, which Meryl Streep recently opened up about during an interview with The New York Times. The conversation about Hollywood's toxic history naturally led to the accusations against Streep's Kramer vs. Kramer costar Dustin Hoffman, who is accused of exposing himself to a minor and assaulting two women. New York Times journalist Cara Buckley specifically asked Streep if she "had problems" with the actor and if he really slapped her during a scene in the pair's Oscar-winning divorce drama.
"That was when we were making Kramer vs. Kramer. This is tricky because when you're an actor, you're in a scene, you have to feel free," Streep said. "I'm sure that I have inadvertently hurt people in physical scenes. But there's a certain amount of forgiveness in that. But this was my first movie, and it was my first take in my first movie, and he just slapped me. And you see it in the movie. It was overstepping. But I think those things are being corrected in this moment. And they're not politically corrected; they're fixed. They will be fixed, because people won't accept it anymore. So that's a good thing."
Streep's comment on Hoffman's behavior comes after a recently resurfaced 1979 interview with Time, in which Streep recalled Hoffman groping her breast the first time they met. Her representative later noted that The Graduate star apologized to Streep, and they settled the matter. Fortunately the Mamma Mia actress has dedicated herself to lifting up the #MeToo movement and helping to stamp out some of the movie industry's more insidious habits.
"I do think if the world is going to go on, we have to find out a way to work together, and know that it's better for men if they respect us deeply as equals."
The Hilarious 40-Year-Old Virgin Reunion You Probably Missed at the Golden Globes
Finally.@kelly_clarkson http://pic.twitter.com/JeMHwBr7e4
— Steve Carell (@SteveCarell) January 8, 2018
There were quite a few nostalgic reunions at the Golden Globe awards on Sunday night. In addition to the adorable leads from The Fault in Our Stars hugging it out and two unexpected Harry Potter costars sharing the stage, there was also a connection involving the 2005 comedy The 40-Year-Old Virgin. While we wish we could relay a fun story about Jonah Hill reconnecting with those sparkly silver boots, the moment in question actually happened between Steve Carell and Kelly Clarkson.
Now before you get all "Um, sorry but Kelly Clarkson wasn't in The 40-Year-Old Virgin!" with me, yes, she was. Well . . . technically. Remember this?
Image Source: Universal Pictures
All these years Kelly Clarkson has had the infamous scene quoted back to her - in which Carell undergoes an excruciatingly real chest wax on camera and painfully screams out her name - but she'd never gotten the chance to laugh about it with Carell in real life. In fact, she joked about the hilarious quote back in November during an interview with Today's Willie Geist.
"I have yet to meet Steve Carell and I want to be like, 'So, was it a compliment?' Like, I dunno, like, you're in pain and you think of Kelly Clarkson," she said. "It was pretty hilarious. I do feel gypped though, 'cause I never met him and I'm a huge fan."
Fortunately, that was corrected at the annual award show when the "Love So Soft" singer bumped into the Battle of the Sexes actor and his wife, fellow actress and comedian Nancy Carell. We can't be sure exactly what was said between the trio, but judging from the couple's smiles, Clarkson had them both in stitches.

Of course, that wasn't the American Idol alum's first fangirl moment of the night. In the midst of an interview with Ryan Seacrest on the Golden Globes red carpet, Clarkson had a minor panic attack when Meryl Streep walked by. "Can I meet you?" she adorably asked the acting legend, before racing down the stairs for a quick chat.
