Mornin! This is Sean McNulty (connect with me on LinkedIn here if ya like), and here’s the Hollywood + Media news to know on WEDNESDAY, June 12, 2024.
Where it was a fun surprise to see Matt & Ben’s Air on ABC primetime last night, on the night between NBA and NHL Finals series games . . . showing up on broadcast TV just a little over a year from the film’s theatrical release.
Look at AMAZON MGM getting creative with the windows 👀.
AND: Jon Stewart will go live with The Daily Show on COMEDY CENTRAL after the 2 Presidential debates . . . the first of which is in, uh, yeesh — 2 weeks (June 27).
THEN: Michael Kassan’s new company is called 3C VENTURES (3CV), and apparently he’s already signing up consulting clients. I mean, come on people —Cannes Lions is next week, who has time to wait for a UTA arbitration decision!
HMM: For anyone else who thinks about the intense power needs of our AI future — this new-ish kind of nuclear power plant that is pending in WY from Bill Gates’ company was an interesting read.
ALSO: This Fast Company read comparing the newly announced APPLE Intelligence to having your very own Gary from Veep in your pocket was very amusing.
BTW: Just as AMAZON consistently sees what third-party products sell well on its site . . . and then makes its own AMAZON-branded versions — here’s a list of all the apps that APPLE will be ripping off mimicking functions for in the new iOS18, now doing things that third-party apps have already been doing for APPLE users.
USA! USA!: The miracle on the pitch campaign continues today for the U.S. team in the cricket T20 World Cup, as the U.S. plays global powerhouse India on Long Island at 10:30 a.m.
FINALLY: As we enter peak summer sun season (another stunner of a day here in NYC 😎), just a reminder from Kevin Jonas to keep those dermatologist skin check appointments in your life, as he revealed he had a basal cell carcinoma found on his forehead that was thus removed this week.
TONYS WEEK CONTINUES! 🎵
Some Water For Elephants today with "The Lion Has Got No Teeth,” as NYC gets ready for the big night on Sunday.
