Last King of the Cross is currently in pre-production. It will be made by new Sydney-based production company Helium, started by Mark Fennessy, a year after Endemol Shine Australia was acquired by Banijay.
Paramount+ Reveals Official Trailer For Madonna’s Documentary Film Madame X.
Madame X. Premieres Saturday, 9 October On Paramount+.
Filmed in Lisbon, Portugal, the new documentary film, Madame X captures the pop icon’s rare and rapturous tour performance, hailed by sold out theatrical audiences worldwide. The unprecedented intimate streaming experience will take viewers on a journey as compelling and audacious as Madonna’s fearless persona, Madame X , a secret agent traveling around the world, changing identities, fighting for freedom and bringing light to dark places.
Madonna’s virtuoso performance in Madame X celebrates the seven-time Grammy Award winner’s fourteenth studio album of the same name, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, and captures new music alongside previous hits and fan favourites for an unrivalled theatrical journey. The linguistically diverse album, inspired by her life immersed in the rich cultural influences of Lisbon, is a love letter to multiculturalism and a testament to Madonna’s transformative influence on, and respect for, global culture and earned praise from The New York Times as a “reimagine[d] pop spectacle for a theatre stage, merging her newest music and calls for political awareness with striking intimacy.”
The global premiere of Madame X , starring Madonna, will exclusively debut on Saturday, 9 October on Paramount+ in Australia.
From MTV Entertainment Studios, Madame X is directed by Ricardo Gomes and SKNX.

Just finished binge watching Why Women Kill season 2. It’s a great show, very funny (in a dark way) and very campy in a Marc Cherry way. More shades of Desperate Housewives in this one than in Season 1. What TV used to be like before reality took over. I like reality but IMO linear TV depends on it too much these days for their ratings.

Not complaining it is new content but I thought we would see more ViacomCBS content than stuff from others
No doubt there is plenty of ViacomCBS content in the pipeline, but I’m pleasantly surprised that they’re acquiring content outside of their own ecosystem that hasn’t found a place on streaming yet and delivering a wider range of shows for local audiences.

This is a Channel 4 UK Television Drama Movie which aired mid last month, looks quite good.

Fortune Telling And Fortune Hunting.
The Luminaries. Streaming Exclusively On Paramount+ From Sunday, 31 October.
The Luminaries , an intricately woven, suspenseful tale of love, magic, revenge and the lust for gold, is the latest murder-mystery that’s set to have you couch-bound.
Streaming exclusively on Paramount+ from Sunday, 31 October, and based on the best-selling novel of the same name, The Luminaries follows a defiant young adventurer Anna Wetherell (Eve Hewson, Robin Hood), who has sailed from Britain to New Zealand to begin a new life.
There she meets the radiant Emery Staines (Himish Patel, Y esterday) , an encounter that triggers a strange kind of magic that neither can explain. As they fall in love, driven together and apart by fateful coincidence, these star-crossed lovers begin to wonder: do we make our fortunes, or do our fortunes make us?
Also starring Aussie - or those we’ll claim as Aussie! - actors Ewen Leslie, Erik Thomson, Callan Mulvey and Michael Sheasby, nothing is as it seems in this gold rush tale of extreme fortune and fate.
Sounds like one long promo for 10 ViacomCBS. Lots of spin words, try to read between the lines - and most, if not all, the questions sound like they were provided by the company.
Some show titles for AFC Asian Qualifiers, Socceroos and the Matildas have just been added to P+ along with Match Replays, Mini Matches and Highlights ahead of live coverage on the service starting on 29th Oct.

I’m noticing that whilst at launch there was no depth of content for P+, there has been a steady flow of content over the last couple of months. There seems to be always something new coming that is remotely decent and has piqued my interest.
Some stupid decisions and interface issues aside, the service is slowly building well.

Tried to watch Guilty Party last night, I fell asleep watching it so that tells you how good it was. Can only imagine it would’ve been slightly better if Isla Fisher hadn’t pulled out of the lead role - reviews not good either.
