George Lopez Gets Prime Video Special; Netflix Orders His & Hers

George Lopez

Prime Video announced a new stand-up special from the visionary comedian George Lopez. The taping will take place at the Los Angeles dates of his ALLLRIIIIGHHTTT! Comedy Tour, September 27 and 28 at the Dolby theater. The premiere date for the one-hour special will be announced at a later date. Lopez's illustrious and multi-faceted career encompasses television, film, stand-up comedy, and late-night television. Lopez has broken ground for Latino comics by embracing his ethnicity, confronting racial stereotypes, and fighting for his community on and off the stage.

He stars in and executive produces his multi-camera comedy series for NBC, Lopez vs Lopez, featuring his real-life daughter, Mayan Lopez. The family sitcom, recently renewed for its third season, stars father and daughter in a fictionalized version of their real-life relationship, exploring dysfunction, reconnection, and all the pain and joy in between.


His & Hers - Jon Bernthal, Tessa Thompson and Pablo Schreiber

Netflix announced that Crystal Fox (Alice), Sunita Mani (Priya), Rebecca Rittenhouse (Lexy) and Marin Ireland (Zoe) have joined the cast of the upcoming series, His & Hers, a seductive and twisty psychological thriller starring and executive-produced by Tessa Thompson. Fox, Mani and Rittenhouse round out the cast of series regulars while Ireland joins as recurring guest star. They join previously announced cast members Jon Tessa Thompson (Anna), Jon Bernthal (Jack) and Pablo Schreiber (Richard). From visionary filmmaker William Oldroyd, the six-episode limited series is adapted from Alice Feeney's novel of the same name. The series begins production this fall. 6 episodes have been ordered.
