<p>&nbsp;Now, in a recent interview, Lee Jung-jae--the actor behind the gambling addict character Seong Gi-hun a.k.a. Player 456--revealed that he would love to reprise his role for a second time. "Of course. Because I've received so much love and support from [viewers], of course I have to play him again if there is a season 2," he said when asked about whether he would be up for the challenge, again.&nbsp;</p>

<p><br />
"But at this point I don't know anything about how the story is going to turn out, or how the characters are going to change, or if there is going to be any new characters adding to the series. I don't know anything right now. And I also don't know whether if Gi-hun's role was still be the main role or like a minor role on the side. But whatever it's going to be, of course I would have to say yes," revealed Lee Jung-jae, while discussing the status of a potential season two.&nbsp;</p>

<p>While talking about the finale scene, Lee Jung-jae revealed that it was tough on him 'emotionally and physically'.&nbsp;</p>

"That would be because Gi-hun is very hurt because of all these games. And he knows he has to admit the fact that he deceived others in order to survive himself, so he's very disappointed in himself and in Sang-woo [Park Hae-soo], his close friend, because he betrayed him. These two characters are fighting against each other with their life on the line when they're childhood friends, so the scene itself is very heartbreaking. It was very emotionally tough. Secondly, I remember that when we were filming that scene when the two were fighting, it was in winter, so the weather was very cold. In Korea the winter is very freezing cold. I remember filming that scene for about four days in the rain with the sprinkler, so it was very emotionally and physically tough," concluded the viral star.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Deep into Season 3 of HBO’s “Succession,” Kendall Roy (Jeremy Strong), the scion-gone-rogue of a family of media billionaires, tells his brother Roman (Kieran Culkin), “You’re not a real person.”</p>

<p><br />
It’s a significant insult on this show, on which the question of who does and doesn’t qualify as “real” comes up repeatedly. Most shockingly, it arises in the corporate designation for incidents of sexual abuse and violence against workers on the cruise lines owned by the family business, Waystar Royco: “NRPI,” or No Real Person Involved.</p>

<p><br />
This chilling language gets to a core theme of “Succession”: that today’s very rich have become more different from you and me than F. Scott Fitzgerald could have dreamed. The Roys, and the handful of hyperrich that they move among, are not simply a breed apart from us. They have become another species.</p>

<p><br />
“Succession,” whose scabrously funny third season begins Sunday, is superficially in the same genre as “Dynasty,” “Dallas” and other bygone soaps about the unhappy superrich. Minus the lyrically deployed obscenities, it would have fit perfectly on prime time in 1981 with its thumbnail premise: Kendall, Roman and their sister, Shiv (Sarah Snook), strive and connive to become either the favorite of their mogul dad, Logan (Brian Cox), or his destroyer.</p>

<p><br />
But in key ways, the show is also nothing like its predecessors, because being rich is nothing like it used to be.</p>

<p><br />
The wicked oil tycoons of ’80s TV soaps were different from you and me in the way of Ernest Hemingway’s rejoinder to Fitzgerald: They had more money. They used that money the way their viewers would have if they had won the lottery. The opening sequence of the original “Dynasty” is a time-capsule rendering of champagne wishes and caviar dreams, with John Forsythe cradling a snifter of something expensive and Joan Collins wearing bejeweled earrings the size of squash racquets.</p>

<p><br />
Like wealth itself today, “Succession” is both a logical progression from its Reagan-era predecessors and something of an entirely different order. The show is made for a time when the richest are proportionally so much richer that it has made them alien. (Even the ones not literally going to space.)</p>

<p><br />
Being rich, on “Succession,” does not look fun. If anything, it is aggressively anti-fun, as if fun itself were just a tatty concept for the lumpen masses who crowd the family’s amusement parks.</p>

<p><br />
The show’s libido is not hot but warped; Roman, for instance, gets most aroused by being shamed and insulted, preferably by the family consigliere Gerri (J. Smith-Cameron). Its aesthetic is not glitzy but cold.<br />
The opening episodes of the new season — which pick up immediately from Season 2’s climax in which Kendall dramatically pinned the cruise ship cover-ups on his father — take place largely in conference rooms and on tarmacs, in the interiors of airplanes and corporate cars. The Roys move from one sleek, arid bubble to another. Occasionally they go to parties, which look like conceptual art installations and feel like work.</p>

<p><br />
Compared with the covetable glitter of ’80s soaps, the modern luxury of “Succession” is both unattainable and alienating. It says, not only will you never have this, you NRP, your primitive mind doesn’t even have the cultivation to want it.</p>

<p><br />
This may be one reason that “Succession,” unlike its predecessors, is a niche sensation rather than a mass broadcast hit. It’s a bitter acquired taste, like expensive imported licorice, with twisted pleasures but little wish fulfillment.</p>

<p><br />
Unless, at least, the wish is for untouchability. The Roys’ surname — &lt;em&gt;roi&lt;/em&gt;, king — is an understatement. They are more like Greek gods. They may occasionally descend and sport among us. But they recognize obligations only to one another — if that — and they can be hurt only by their own transhuman kind. (Vulture reported that the creator, Jesse Armstrong, decided not to rewrite the new episodes to address COVID-19, in part on the theory that the pandemic doesn’t really touch people like them.)</p>

<p><br />
The new season, the most overtly political and gleefully dark one yet, is focused on whether the forces of reckoning can penetrate the force fields of the Roys and their ilk. It is not optimistic.</p>

<p><br />
As Logan musters his defense, he leans on the show’s fictional American president, an unseen Republican he derisively calls “the raisin.” In the end, raisins are grapes, and grapes are meant to be stomped. Or cultivated, when the old ones stop giving juice.</p>

<p><br />
With an election looming, Logan — who owns a Fox-like cable news network with conservative kingmaking power — begins auditioning candidates, including a slick quasi-fascist played by Justin Kirk. To Logan, the leader of the free world is, as he puts it in Season 1, basically an “intern.” This may explain his contempt for the presidential ambitions of his oldest son, Connor (Alan Ruck): Connor’s dream isn’t just absurd, it’s slumming.</p>

<p><br />
Is there anyone good in all of this? Shiv, once a political consultant of modest principle, has ideals she’ll cling to a touch longer than the other Roys, before discarding them like a champagne flute onto a waiter’s tray. Roman is an irresistible imp, but his eternal joking-not-joking mode makes him all the more sneakily dangerous, like a circa-2016 internet memelord.</p>

<p><br />
Beyond the family core, you get to the characters who are merely morally weak in the way you or I might be if thrown into this world. Shiv’s husband, Tom (Matthew Macfadyen), is an arriviste with a tormenting awareness of his dispensability. Greg (Nicholas Braun), a cousin from a poorer branch of the family, is delightfully squirmy, a worm constantly twisting to avoid the hook and maybe wriggle a few inches higher up the fishing line.</p>

<p><br />
Greg’s haplessness makes him sympathetic, but is he honorable? His grandfather Ewan (James Cromwell), Logan’s embittered brother, tells him in the new season that he is “in the service of a monstrous enterprise.” Ewan may be a sanctimonious scold — he is the most principled and least likable character on the show — but he is not wrong.</p>

<p><br />
That’s “Succession” for you. The best lack all charisma, while the worst are full of panache and intensity.<br />
This is where the Kendall 2.0 of the new season is especially interesting. You might expect him, in rebel mode, to fill the Bobby Ewing good-guy role, and it’s hard to argue with his attack on the toxic Waystar culture.</p>

<p><br />
But he comes off like a rich poseur trying to make idealism his #brand, manically quoting progressive catchphrases the way he spat bad rap at a Season-2 party for Logan. Morality, for him, is like an exciting new market in which he can claim first-mover advantage — or like a handy Oedipal cudgel to brain his father with.</p>

<p><br />
The only unifying figure is Logan, the blustering, manipulative Kronos whose children vie to make sure he doesn’t snack on them first. He always seems to be tantalizingly close to destruction — corporate, legal or physical — yet his kids can never shake the fear that he will rise vengefully from his sickbed like the father from Kafka’s “The Judgment.” There is no tyrant as absolute as the one who knew you when you were in diapers.</p>

<p><br />
But the evil genius of “Succession” is that it knows that drama pulls the audience to want to root for someone regardless. You skip from one allegiance to another — Team Shiv, no, Team Gerri, no, Team Greg! — as if hopping barefoot on hot pavement. The viewers are like the citizens of a country fallen to one-party authoritarian rule. The good guys are not going to win; the good guys are not even in the game. You can only hope to see a terrible person do something terrible to a more terrible person.<br />
This makes “Succession” both an addictive spectator sport and one of TV’s great horror stories. We NRPs can enjoy it knowing that we have no stake, except for the tiny fact that people like the Roys run the world. And we can take comfort in the certainty that whoever wins out in this Greek drama — whoever, in Roman’s words, ends up “climbing Mount Olympus to be the new Dr. Zeus” — will at least have the decency not to enjoy it.</p>

Rami Malek’s SNL debut promo leaves everyone in splits

<p>A transgender member from the cast of 'Hamilton' musical had alleged that they were fired from the hit show after asking for a gender-neutral dressing room.</p>

<p>According to a discrimination and retaliation complaint filed by Suni Reid--who is Black, nonbinary, and uses the pronouns they/them--said that they were "cast out of Hamilton when the Company's management refused to renew their contract shortly after they requested that the performers have a gender-neutral dressing room in addition to the ones for men and women."</p>

<p>The complaint further accuses the production of treating them unjustly. They said they "experienced frequent incidents of discrimination and harassment" that involved being purposely misgendered that was mainly because of using a male dressing space.</p>

<p>"Publicly, Hamilton is a beacon of diversity and appears committed to causes seeking social justice and harmony. Behind the curtain, however, the company's management will force out a Black, transgender cast member simply because they stood up for themselves and advocated for a more equitable workplace, and therefore called that public image into question," Reid's attorneys, Lawrence M. Pearson and Linsday M. Goldbrum, said in a statement to EW. "We look forward to upholding Mx. Reid's rights and hope this is a wake-up call for the theater industry about the systemic inequities that persist even at its greatest heights," read the complaint document, according to reports.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Reid joined Hamilton as a cast member in 2017 and has performed in the Los Angeles, Chicago, and Broadway productions of 'Hamilton'. During their time with the team, Reid has reportedly covered many roles that included lead roles such as Aaron Burr, George Washington, Hercules Mulligan/James Madison, and Lafayette/Thomas Jefferson.</p>

<p>According to reports, a gender-neutral space was eventually made by partitioning off a section of the dressing room, which Reid reportedly claims did not meet their expectations or the expectations of the Los Angeles transgender regulations.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Later, Reid alleges that Hamilton 'terminated its contract (and) the only explanation is that Mx. Reid was punished for making legally protected complaints and requests to the Company'.</p>

<p>"Suni Reid was a valued cast member for more than three years. We offered them a contract to return to Hamilton with terms responsive to their requests. We deny the allegations in the charge. We have not discriminated or retaliated against Suni. Since the shutdown, our organization has taken care of our community. We have treated Suni with the same respect and consideration as all the company members of Hamilton.

<p>Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence will now be seen in a 'buzzy' comedy feature film 'No Hard Feelings' the rights for which has reportedly been acquired by Sony Entertainment. &nbsp;</p>

<p>Netflix has restored a trans engineer and two other employees who had been suspended following a meeting that was meant only for senior executives at the company.</p>

<p>Terra Field, who had previously spoken out against Dave Chappelle's controversial new stand-up special on the video-streaming giant, wrote on Twitter, "Netflix has reinstated me after finding that there was no ill-intent in my attending the QBR meeting… At the very least, I feel vindicated."</p>

<p>Terra Field, who is trans, joined the meeting after speaking out on Twitter about Dave Chappelle’s latest Netflix special, 'The Closer'. Field and the others joined the meeting and were suspended soon after.<br />
Field also shared a part of an email statement that seems to be from a Netflix official, writing, "Our investigation did not find that you joined the QBR meeting with any ill intent and that you genuinely didn’t think there was anything wrong with seeking access to this meeting. Additionally when a director shared the link it further supported that this was a meeting that you could attend."</p>

<p>A spokesperson for Netflix also confirmed Field’s tweet and said that the other employees were also reinstated. "We will be distributing broader guidance about meetings and clarifying which are for which people," they added.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The spokesperson also reiterated that the suspension was not due to Field’s critical tweets.<br />
For the uninitiated--in the controversial stand-up special, 'The Closer'--Chappelle reportedly mocked the idea of gender identity and identified himself as 'team TERF', meaning trans-exclusionary radical feminists.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Since premiering on Netflix, the special comedy act has drawn sharp criticism from Gay &amp; Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD), showrunners like 'Dear White People' star Jaclyn Moore, Netflix's own employee Field, among others.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Ted Sarandos, Netflix co-CEO, wrote in a memo to senior staffers late last week that they would not remove Chappelle’s special from the platform. "Chappelle is one of the most popular stand-up comedians today, and we have a long-standing deal with him. As with our other talent, we work hard to support their creative freedom — even though this means there will always be content on Netflix some people believe is harmful, like Cuties, 365 Days, 13 Reasons Why or My Unorthodox Life," Sarandos wrote.</p>

Ricarlo Flanagan, Shameless actor, dead at 41 after contracting COVID

<p>The Irish novelist Sally Rooney said on Tuesday that she would not allow the Israeli publishing house that handled her previous novels to publish her most recent book, “Beautiful World, Where Are You,” because of her support for Palestinian people and the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement.</p>

<p><br />
In an email, Rooney said that she was proud to have her first two books, “Normal People” and “Conversations With Friends,” published in Hebrew. “Likewise, it would be an honor for me to have my latest novel translated into Hebrew and available to Hebrew-language readers,” she said. “But for the moment, I have chosen not to sell these translation rights to an Israeli-based publishing house.”</p>

<p><br />
She added that she knew some would disagree with her decision, “but I simply do not feel it would be right for me under the present circumstances to accept a new contract with an Israeli company that does not publicly distance itself from apartheid and support the U.N.-stipulated rights of the Palestinian people.”</p>

<p><br />
Her Israeli publisher, Modan Publishing House, said in an email that when it inquired about “Beautiful World, Where Are You,” which was published in English in September, it was told that she wasn’t interested in publishing it in Israel. It said it was not given an explanation.</p>

<p><br />
In her email, Rooney cited a report published this year by Human Rights Watch that said the actions of the Israeli government meet the legal definition of apartheid, and she expressed her support for the BDS movement, which aims to harness international political and economic pressure on Israel. Supporters say the goal of the BDS movement is to end the Israeli occupation of the West Bank, while critics, including many Israelis, say its real aim is the end of Israel as a Jewish state. Rooney’s decision was previously reported by the Israeli newspaper Haaretz.</p>

<p><br />
Rooney is not the first prominent author to decline an offer to publish in Israel. Alice Walker said in 2012 that she would not allow a Hebrew translation of her Pulitzer Prize-winning novel “The Color Purple.” Walker, who was born in Georgia in 1944, said at the time, “I grew up under American apartheid and this,” she added of Israel’s treatment of Palestinians, “was far worse.”</p>

<p><br />
Deborah Harris, a literary agent whose company handles major authors looking to be translated and published in Israel, described Rooney’s decision as painful and counterproductive.</p>

<p><br />
“When it’s ice cream or when it’s cement, or whatever else it is, it’s one thing, but when it comes to culture, I just have a very, very hard time seeing how this can be productive in changing anything,” Harris said. “What literature is supposed to do is reach into the hearts and minds of people. ”</p>

<p><br />
Those likely to read Rooney’s work in Israel, Harris added, are not those who support the policies to which she likely objects. “Her audience here are people who are in total support of a Palestinian state,” Harris said.</p>

<p><br />
Rooney’s books have been successful both critically and commercially. Her second novel, “Normal People,” was longlisted for the Booker Prize and made into a television series by BBC Three and Hulu, for which Rooney was nominated for an Emmy. A TV series based on “Conversations With Friends” is expected to be released next year.</p>

<p><br />
All this has come to Rooney quickly. The author, 30, is sometimes described as more famous than the books she’s written, or as the first great millennial novelist.</p>

<p><br />
“Beautiful World, Where Are You” follows the friendship of two young women, Eileen, an editorial assistant at a literary magazine, and Alice, a novelist whose career raced into fame and success, much in the way that Rooney’s did. The book has been on the New York Times bestseller list for hardcover fiction for four weeks.</p>

<p><br />
In her statement, Rooney said that in making this decision not to publish again with Modan, she was “responding to the call from Palestinian civil society,” and she expressed solidarity with Palestinian people “in their struggle for freedom, justice and equality.”</p>

<p><br />

The Irish novelist Sally Rooney said on Tuesday that she would not allow the Israeli publishing house that handled her previous novels to publish her most recent book, “Beautiful World, Where Are You,” because of her support for Palestinian people and the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement. In an email, Rooney said that she was proud to have her first two books, “Normal People” and “Conversations With Friends,” published in Hebrew. “Likewise, it would be an honor for me to have my latest novel translated into Hebrew and available to Hebrew-language readers,” she said. “But for the moment, I have chosen not to sell these translation rights to an Israeli-based publishing house.” She added that she knew some would disagree with her decision, “but I simply do not feel it would be right for me under the present circumstances to accept a new contract with an Israeli company that does not publicly distance itself from apartheid and support the U.N.-stipulated rights of the Palestinian people.” Her Israeli publisher, Modan Publishing House, said in an email that when it inquired about “Beautiful World, Where Are You,” which was published in English in September, it was told that she wasn’t interested in publishing it in Israel. It said it was not given an explanation. In her email, Rooney cited a report published this year by Human Rights Watch that said the actions of the Israeli government meet the legal definition of apartheid, and she expressed her support for the BDS movement, which aims to harness international political and economic pressure on Israel. Supporters say the goal of the BDS movement is to end the Israeli occupation of the West Bank, while critics, including many Israelis, say its real aim is the end of Israel as a Jewish state. Rooney’s decision was previously reported by the Israeli newspaper Haaretz. Rooney is not the first prominent author to decline an offer to publish in Israel. Alice Walker said in 2012 that she would not allow a Hebrew translation of her Pulitzer Prize-winning novel “The Color Purple.” Walker, who was born in Georgia in 1944, said at the time, “I grew up under American apartheid and this,” she added of Israel’s treatment of Palestinians, “was far worse.” Deborah Harris, a literary agent whose company handles major authors looking to be translated and published in Israel, described Rooney’s decision as painful and counterproductive. “When it’s ice cream or when it’s cement, or whatever else it is, it’s one thing, but when it comes to culture, I just have a very, very hard time seeing how this can be productive in changing anything,” Harris said. “What literature is supposed to do is reach into the hearts and minds of people. ” Those likely to read Rooney’s work in Israel, Harris added, are not those who support the policies to which she likely objects. “Her audience here are people who are in total support of a Palestinian state,” Harris said. Rooney’s books have been successful both critically and commercially. Her second novel, “Normal People,” was longlisted for the Booker Prize and made into a television series by BBC Three and Hulu, for which Rooney was nominated for an Emmy. A TV series based on “Conversations With Friends” is expected to be released next year. All this has come to Rooney quickly. The author, 30, is sometimes described as more famous than the books she’s written, or as the first great millennial novelist. “Beautiful World, Where Are You” follows the friendship of two young women, Eileen, an editorial assistant at a literary magazine, and Alice, a novelist whose career raced into fame and success, much in the way that Rooney’s did. The book has been on the New York Times bestseller list for hardcover fiction for four weeks. In her statement, Rooney said that in making this decision not to publish again with Modan, she was “responding to the call from Palestinian civil society,” and she expressed solidarity with Palestinian people “in their struggle for freedom, justice and equality.” She added that the Hebrew-language translation rights to the novel are still available, and that if she can find a way to sell them and adhere to the BDS movement’s guidelines, “I will be very pleased and proud to do so.”
