Jag Arneja can be seen in his upcoming role in the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries MOW – ‘A Godwink Christmas: Second Chance, First Love.

This is the third film of the Godwink Christmas series.

Storyline:
Half a lifetime ago, PAT and MARGIE were boyfriend and girlfriend, but they broke up because Pat accepted a life-altering job in Hawaii. Pat has two sons (and a divorce) and Margie is a rising star at a nationwide luxury bath & beauty products company. When they cross paths again during Pat’s Christmas trip to visit his mom (and hunt for a job), it seems as if Fate just keeps putting them in love’s way. Is this mere random chance, or a Yuletide Godwink in progress?…

Dean Hinchey has finished shooting a role on Episode #102 of Disney Plus’ upcoming series, ‘The Mysterious Benedict Society’.

The Mysterious Benedict Society, a new adventure drama series based on the best-selling YA novel by Trenton Lee Stewart.

Written by Matt Manfredi and Phil Hay is now being moved to Disney Plus after originally being developed for Hulu.

The show was originally ordered to series at Hulu last year, but is now slated to debut on fellow Disney-owned streamer Disney Plus in 2021.

“‘The Mysterious Benedict Society’ is a beautifully executed adaptation of the celebrated and beloved book series. It’s original, clever and fun for the whole family, which makes it the perfect fit for Disney+,” said Dana Walden, chairman of Entertainment for Walt Disney Television. “One of the great benefits to creators working with our company is that we have a platform that’s right for every series, and having seen the first few episodes of this show, there is no better home for it than Disney+.”  It is the tale of four gifted orphans who are recruited by an eccentric, benefactor (Hale) to go on a secret mission.

Tony Hale’s Mr. Benedict, a rumpled, affable eccentric genius, is the head of the Mysterious Benedict Society – a group of orphans he has recruited to save the world. While Mr. Benedict is reluctant to put the children in harm’s way, he feels there is no other choice. His Society is mysterious, and so is Mr. Benedict himself; he is the genial, cunning mastermind.

The Mysterious Benedict Society cast.

The eight-episode first season stars Tony Hale, Kristen Schaal, Ryan Hurst, MaameYaa Boafo, Gia Sandhu, Seth Carr, Emmy DeOliveira, Mystic Inscho, and Marta Timofeeva. Placed undercover at a boarding school known as The Institute, a group of orphans (Inscho, DeOliveira, Carr, Timofeeva) must foil a nefarious plot with global ramifications while creating a new sort of family along the way.

“The Mysterious Benedict Society” is executive produced by Sonar Entertainment, 20th Television, Jamie Tarses, Karen Kehela Sherwood, and writers and co-creators Matt Manfredi and Phil Hay. Darren Swimmer and Todd Slavkin serve as executive producers and showrunners. James Bobin will direct the pilot and will also executive produce. 20th Television serves as the studio.

The Mysterious Benedict Society, written by Stewart and illustrated by Carson Ellis, was published by Little, Brown and Company in 2007, launching a best-selling book franchise that also includes sequels The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Perilous Journey and The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Prisoner’s Dilemma as well as prequel The Extraordinary Education of Nicholas Benedict.

Bianca Kenna stars in the first episode of THE SURVEYOR, a seven-episode LONDON BASED miniseries going out on YouTube on Tuesday 17th November.

This off-beat comedy follows the adventures of Sam, a happy-go-lucky and hapless surveyor.

Biannca’s role in the first episode set a benchmark of, what can we say… ‘ordinary-strangeness‘?!…and that definitely helped to inform the tone of the series.

Episodes One and Two go out together on Tuesday 17th November and then two episodes go out at a time over the next three weeks. The final episode goes out on Tuesday 8th December.

Fatman will hit select theaters on Nov. 13 and on VOD Nov. 17.

“A superhero film wrapped in a thriller dipped in western and sprinkled with satire” — that’s how writer-directors the Nelms Bros describe their new holiday fantasy action film Fatman.

Christmas spirit looks a little different with Mel Gibson, who we see portraying a rowdy, gun-toting Santa Claus!

The action-comedy directed by Ian and Eshom Nelms centers on a neglected 12-year-old boy (Chance Hurstfield) who hires a highly skilled assassin (Walton Goggins) to take out Chris Cringle (Gibson) after receiving a lump of coal in his stocking. Cringle proves himself a worthy adversary as he is not so jolly or festively plump, and more so skilled in weaponry after being forced into a partnership with the U.S. military to save his declining business.

Marianne Jean-Baptiste and Shaun Benson co-star in the dark Christmas tale.

Fatman is produced by Fortitude International’s Nadine de Barros and Mammoth Entertainment’s Todd Courtney, along with RBL Studios’ Michelle Lang, Zed Filmworks’ Robert Menzies and Skywolf Media’s Lisa Wolofsky.

TRAILER:
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/05/movies/operation-christmas-drop-review.html

Operation Christmas Drop is a 2020 American Christmas rom-com movie coordinated by Martin Wood from a screenplay by Gregg Rossen and Brian Sawyer. The film stars Kat Graham and Alexander Ludwig and is approximately founded on the genuine U.S. Flying corps Operation Christmas Drop compassionate mission wherein a military base in Guam drops supplies and gifts on the most remote islands of Micronesia during the holiday season.

Back in 1952 around Christmastime, an American aircrew saw people waving at them from the island of Kapingamarangi, which is a few thousand miles southwest of Hawaii. To spread some holiday cheer, the aircrew dropped a bundle of supplies attached to a parachute to the islanders. From then on, Operation Christmas Drop became an annual tradition that involves sending supplies–like medicine, food, equipment, school necessities, clothing, and toys–to people on more than 50 islands throughout the Pacific Ocean that are not easily reached by boat.

The movie was filmed at Andersen Air Force Base in Guam, the actual base camp for the operation.

The icy and professionally stifled legislative aide, Erica (Kat Graham), is sent by her Grinchy congresswoman boss (Virginia Madsen) to evaluate the efficiency of a U.S. Air Force base in Guam.

There, she goes toe to toe with Andrew (Alexander Ludwig), a genial Air Force captain, who knows her assignment is finding reasons to defund the facility and who then spearheads the operation of the title, where gifts are parachuted to people on neighboring islands.

He must convince the Scrooge-like local mayor (Aaron Douglas) to help contribute to the mission of American altruism. And Erica’s assignment might be aborted in favor of holiday miracles.

WATCH Arthur Corber in Hallmark’s MOW, ‘Christmas With The Darlings aka “A Family Through Christmas”.

Movie Premiere, Sunday, November 8, 8/7c, Hallmark Channel.

Now, if only he and Jessica can convince Charles of that simple fact. And if only they can put their relationship on a solid footing in time to give the kids the stable home they so desperately need…

Rhiannon Latimer has booked a role on Episode #102 of NBC’s upcoming alien drama series, ‘Debris’.

The network has handed out a series order for Debris, the alien drama starring Jonathan Tucker and Riann Steele.

Debris marks NBC’s first series to be picked up from its 2020 pilot crop. The show, from Fringe’s J.H. Wyman, was also the network’s first drama to be ordered to pilot and has quietly been a network favorite since.

The series about two agents from two different continents who investigate an alien spacecraft wreckage and its mysterious effects on humankind was able to complete roughly 80 percent of production before the novel coronavirus pandemic upended pilot season (and the world).

Debris, like fellow sci-fi drama La Brea, remained in contention at NBC when the network narrowed its pilot roster last week. Debris is NBC’s second drama order for the 2020-21 season and joins the Chris Meloni-led Law & Order: SVU spinoff.

Debris is a co-production between Legendary TV and Universal TV. Wyman serves as showrunner and exec produces alongside Jason Hoffs.

“Written by Wyman, Debris is said to be in the vein of The X-Files and Men In Black. In it, two agents, played by Steele and Tucker, from two different continents, and two different mindsets, must work together to investigate when wreckage from a destroyed alien spacecraft has mysterious effects on humankind.”

The series is set to premiere on NBC in March 2021.
