Run the World - Tika Sumpter, CP and Isha Blaaker

STARZ announced that Tika Sumpter (Sonic the Hedgehog 2, mixed-ish), Comedian CP (Detroiters, Ole Bud's Anu Football Weekly) and Isha Blaaker (A Madea's Homecoming, The Flight Attendant) will be joining the cast of STARZ's hit comedy series Run the World in recurring roles. Cree Summer (Better Things, Queen Sugar) and Ashley Blaine Featherson-Jenkins (Dear White People, Bad Hair) will guest star in the upcoming season. The series follows a group of smart, funny and vibrant thirty-something Black women - fiercely loyal best friends - who live, work and play in Harlem.

Tika Sumpter will recur as "Naomi," the biological mother of Amari who has returned home from the Navy. Comedian CP will recur as "Preston Thurgood," the multi-millionaire creator of Prestify, who has no need to put on airs. Ishaa Blaaker will recur as "Phillip Houston," Whitney's business school rival who has returned from London fresh off a breakup of his own. Cree Summer will guest star as "Dr. Monica Mitchell," the ladies' wise and trusting new therapist. Ashley Blaine Featherson-Jenkins will guest star as "India Blue," a beautiful, confident, cool and incredibly successful singer/songwriter/producer. Rachelle Williams-BenAry (Love Life, mixed-ish, Survivor's Remorse) joins season two as showrunner and executive producer. Returning cast includes Amber Stevens West (The Carmichael Show), Bresha Webb (Marlon), Corbin Reid (Valor), Stephen Bishop (Moneyball, Imposters) and Tosin Morohunfola (Black Lightning). Erika Alexander (Living Single) and Nick Sagar (Queen of the South) will also return as recurring guest stars, and Jay Walker (Grey's Anatomy) and Tonya Pinkins will return as guest stars.

Noonan's

HBO Max has ordered Noonan's (wt) to series. The ten-episode adult-animated DC series, centered on Kite Man (voiced by Matt Oberg) is a spin-off of the Max Original adult-animated DC series Harley Quinn, that returns for its third season this summer. Lovable loser Kite Man and his new squeeze Golden Glider moonlight as criminals to support their foolish purchase of Noonan's, Gotham's seediest dive bar, where everybody knows your name, but not necessarily your secret identity! The show is executive produced by Justin Halpern, Patrick Schumacker, Sam Register, Dean Lorey, and Kaley Cuoco.
