As It Looks Toward Rebrand, Paramount Network Turns to Premium Scripted Fare As It Looks Toward Rebrand, Paramount Network Turns to Premium Scripted Fare 03.30.2017 Viacom is preparing to turn niche male-focused network Spike into a general entertainment channel Paramount Network. The next step toward making that happen is finding high-quality scripted series to pair with its unscripted favorites - such as Lip Sync Battle, which Viacom renewed for season four on Thursday - as well as original sports and specials. "Our mission is to establish Paramount Network as a prime destination for premium storytelling," said Kevin Kay, president, Paramount Network, TV Land, and CMT in a statement. "From Alicia Silverstone as a trailblazing independent working mother in the 1970's to Michael Shannon as an FBI negotiator during the Branch Davidians dramatic standoff and siege, Paramount Network will be the home to compelling stories, unforgettable characters, and high quality production with a distinctive global appeal." The new network's new shows include American Woman, starring Silverstone and Mena Suvari; six-part limited series Waco, starring Shannon, John Leguizamo and Taylor Kitsch as David Koresh; a remake of the popular 1988 Winona Ryder-Christian Slater movie, Heathers; and two-hour documentary I Am Martin Luther King Jr. Both American Woman and Heathers came to Paramount Network from TV Land, reports Deadline, which Kay also oversees. Paramount Network also plans to reboot First Wives' Club, which had been in development but was eventually passed on by TV Land. Paramount Network plans to give that project another shot. As for Nashville, which moved to CMT this year, it has 11 more episodes to go in this season, after losing lead Connie Britton in the middle of the season. While Kay sounds upbeat about the show in his interview with Deadline, he's non-committal on whether it will return to the network. "We will see how the audience reacts to Nashville and the next 11 episodes but I believe that there are great fans of the show and it's got a good future ahead of it, we are encouraged that we can continue to do it," Kay told Deadline. Paramount Network also will hang on to breakout hit Lip Sync Battle, hosted by LL Cool J and Chrissy Teigen. Also premiering new seasons in 2018 will be Ink Master, Bar Rescue, and Bellator MMA.

  • YELLOWSTONE Cast Descriptions Kevin Costner
    YELLOWSTONE Cast Descriptions Kevin Costner – “John Dutton” John Dutton is the patriarch of the powerful Dutton Family that controls the largest contiguous ranch in the United States, under constant conflict by those it borders — land developers, an Indian reservation, and America’s first National Park. Dutton, a sixth-generation rancher and devoted father, is immersed in a corrupt world where politicians are bought and sold by the world’s largest oil and lumber corporations and land grabs make developers billions. Wes Bentley- “Jamie Dutton” A polished lawyer considering a career in politics, Jamie’s desperate need for his father’s approval pushed him to greatness—but it may also push him over the edge. Cole Hauser – “Rip Wheeler” A tough and merciless wrangler from Yellowstone Ranch, Rip has dedicated his life to serving the Duttons and will stop at nothing to get the job done, even when his life is on the line. Kelly Reilly — “Beth Dutton” Beth is the efficacious daughter of a rancher, thrown suddenly into matriarchy after the death of her mother and tasked with the impossible—holding together a family of broken men as they attempt to surmount impossible odds. Given the moniker “Hatchet Man,” by those who know her, Beth is unrelenting in her duties, even when war is waging all around—and often within her. Luke Grimes - “Kayce Dutton” Pushed away by his father and an outsider to the family he’s married into, Kayce Dutton walks a constant tightrope, but never very gracefully. As his two families set out to destroy one another, every emotion billows through Kayce’s eyes, revealing secrets as they rip through him, threatening to tear him apart.

    Publication Date: September 4, 2018 Media Contact: Diane Levinson, Publicity [email protected] 212.354.8840 x248 The Endings Photographic Stories of Love, Loss, Heartbreak, and Beginning Again By Caitlin Cronenberg and Jessica Ennis • Foreword by Mary Harron 11 x 8 in, 136pp, Hardcover, Photographs throughout ISBN 978‐1‐4521‐5568‐5, $29.95 Featuring some of today’s most celebrated actresses, including Julianne Moore, Alison Pill, and Imogen Poots, the photographic vignettes in The Endings capture female characters in the throes of emotional transformation. Photographer Caitlin Cronenberg and art director Jessica Ennis created stories of heartbreak, relationship endings, and new beginnings—fictional but often inspired by real life—and set out to convey the raw emotions that are exposed in these most vulnerable states. Cronenberg and Ennis collaborated with each actress to develop a character, build the world she inhabits, and then photograph her as she lived the role before the camera. Patricia Clarkson depicts a woman meeting her younger lover in the campus library—even though they both know the relationship has been over since before it even began. Juno Temple portrays a broken‐hearted woman who engages in reckless and self‐destructive behavior to numb the sadness she feels. Keira Knightley ritualistically cleanses herself and her home after the death of her great love. Also featured are Jennifer Jason Leigh, Danielle Brooks, Tessa Thompson, Noomi Rapace, and many more. These intimate images combine the lush beauty and rich details of fashion photographs with the drama and narrative energy of film stills. Telling stories of sadness, loneliness, anger, relief, rebirth, freedom, and happiness, they are about relationship endings, but they are also about beginnings.
