Harvey Weinstein’s sexual assault trial sees a new day as the&nbsp;judge overseeing the case has dropped four of the 11 charges against him. This happened after prosecutors said that they do not intend to proceed with counts connected to one of the accusers.&nbsp;

The four charges dropped are those of two counts of forcible rape and two counts of forced oral copulation. These were both accused by a woman named Jane Doe 5. Meanwhile, eight other women will testify in the case against Harvey Weinstein.&nbsp;

Harvey Weinstein has pleaded not guilty to the remaining seven sexual assault charges, including two counts of rape and five counts of sexual assault dating from 2004 to 2013.

The trial resumed with further cross-examination of Jennifer Siebel Newsom, a filmmaker and the wife of California Gov. Gavin Newsom. She testified that the disgraced producer raped her in a hotel in 2005 when she was 31 years old. She said, "Sir, I was assaulted by him.”

It so happened that Weinstein called her to his room to discuss potential film projects and then raped her. When asked why she remained in the hotel suite, she said, "Because you don't say no to Harvey Weinstein. He could make or ruin your career. I thought I was going to discuss my projects."

Harvey Weinstein was found guilty in 2020 in New York of first-degree criminal sexual act and third-degree rape and was sentenced to 23 years in prison. He has maintained his innocence and called these allegations baseless and the sex “consensual”.&nbsp;

The 'Walking Dead’ producers want their share from the profits of the long-running show as they file a $200 million lawsuit against AMC Networks.&nbsp;

Among the suing producers are Robert Kirkman, Gale Anne Hurd, David Alpert, Charles Eglee and Glenn Mazzara who claim that AMC Networks should also pay them like they did the show’s creator Frank Darabont and CAA. Frank and the agency were given a $200 million settlement in 2021.&nbsp;

Their statement reads: “Plaintiffs were forced to file this lawsuit as a result of AMC’s two faced treatment of their right to participate in the historic success of The Walking Dead. On the one hand AMC tells them they are entitled to nothing based on erroneous pre-trial rulings which are subject to appeal, while AMC paid $200 million to Frank Darabont and CAA to avoid a New York jury’s review of the exact same contingent compensation definition. Instead of giving Plaintiffs the benefit of the Darabont settlement as required by the express terms of their contracts, AMC’s creative activity these days seems limited to figuring out new ways to mistreat the talent that is responsible for its now past success.”

Meanwhile, Orin Snyder, attorney for AMC Networks, said in a statement, “Robert Kirkman, David Alpert and the rest of these plaintiffs have had their biggest claims against AMC Networks thrown out of court twice, so now they are back with another lawsuit. And another lawsuit means another attempt to rewrite their agreements and extract even more than the millions they have already been paid, and will be paid in the future, for their profit participation in ‘The Walking Dead.’ This is just another crass money grab. We are confident it will fail, as their previous attempts have failed.”&nbsp;

Horror never fails to enthrall audiences and filmmakers alike. The rise of OTT platforms has only&nbsp;popularised long-format shows in many languages with horror at their core.&nbsp;

Here's a list of some new content you can enjoy this winter: 
&nbsp; 
&nbsp;1. Victoria

&nbsp;Anand Pandit Motion Pictures and Pushkar Jog’s Goosebumps Entertainment's Marathi horror film, ‘Victoria’, is all set to be released on December 16. &nbsp;Jointly directed by debutants Jeet Ashok and Virajas Kulkarni, the film revolves around the inmates of a haunted house and the mysterious events that follow. The big-budget movie that was primarily shot in Scotland stars Pushkar Jog, Sonalee Kulkarni, and Aashay Kulkarni. It is also the debut Marathi movie of the Punjabi model and actress, Heera Sohal. The spooky entertainer promises to be a lot of fun and fans are busy speculating about the secrets that the film will unearth as it takes us on a journey like no other.&nbsp;

2. Phone Bhoot 
&nbsp; 
Tons of meta humour and inside jokes garnish this laughter fest headlined by Katrina Kaif. The story of ghostbusters, Sherdil Shergill aka 'Major' (Siddhant Chaturvedi) , &nbsp;Galileo Parthasarathy aka 'Gullu' (Ishaan Khattar), and Raagini (Kaif), a glamorous ghost on a mission is gathering much appreciation for its unusual take on the horror genre. With Jackie Shroff reliving the glory days of 'Hero,' Kaif teaching Sheeba Chaddha how to pronounce 'Moksh' and throwbacks to Ramsay films, what is not to like? &nbsp;'Phone Booth' is directed by Gurmmeet Singh and produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani. &nbsp; 
&nbsp; 
&nbsp;3. Bhediya 
&nbsp; 
If you have not had enough films about good-looking werewolves, here comes 'Bhediya'. Directed and produced by Amar Kaushik and Dinesh Vijan, the film stars Varun Dhawan and Kriti Sanon and its trailer has already garnered around 46 million views in two weeks. The idea of an ordinary young man transforming into an 'ichchadhari bhediya' (mythical werewolf)', with 'Rampuri chaaku' nails and Dracula teeth at night is both funny and intriguing. Entirely shot in Arunachal Pradesh, 'Bhediya' will release in theatres on November 25. &nbsp; 
&nbsp; 
&nbsp;4. The Watcher

&nbsp;This Netflix mini-series co-created by Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan revolves around a couple, Nora (Naomi Watts) and Dean Brannock (Bobby Cannavale), and their two kids. When they move to a house in the suburbs of Westfield in New Jersey, they encounter unfriendly neighbours and nightmarish incidents. They start to receive mysterious letters from someone addressing himself as ‘The Watcher’. The seven-episode edge-of-the-seat drama is said to be inspired by a true story published in the New York Magazine in 2018, titled, ‘The Haunting of a Dream House'. The series was released on October 13, 2022.

The recently held MTV EMAs had a lot to offer apart from some great musical performances. Israeli pop star Noa Kirel brought her A-game to the stage at the event when she showed up in a controversial midriff-baring outfit that had Kanye West’s pictures plastered on it along with the&nbsp;Jewish Star of David.

Talking about her look, Noa said,“I had this idea that came to my head: after all the anti-Semitic things that Kanye said about Jewish people — and I’m Jewish — I knew I had to have something that will be powerful on the red carpet. I really wanted it to be a message and not just a regular outfit. And it takes some nerves, but I think the message was received.”&nbsp;

Noa admitted that many thought her dress was too risky but it was all worth it for her as she made a statement and met up with Taylor Swift who liked the outfit a lot. On meeting Taylor Swift, the Israeli pop star said, “When I saw her, she was just sitting there, and you know, I’ve got the Israeli chutzpah, so I was, like, I’m going to introduce myself.”&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/saturday-night-live-dave-chappelle-come-under-fire-for-popularising-antisemitism-534300" hreflang="en">SNL, Dave Chappelle come under fire for 'popularising antisemitism'</a>

Looks like the popular show Saturday Night Live is facing flak for giving controversial star Kanye West ‘Ye’ a platform to voice antisemitic remarks. Dave Chappelle spent a considerably large time giving his thoughts on Ye’s remarks on the Jewish community which many have not found too funny.&nbsp;

Last weekend, Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt criticised the show, accusing it of “popularising antisemitism.” Parts in the monologue that have not gone down too well are Dave Chappelle saying Ye broke “the show business … rules of perception: If they’re Black, then it’s a gang. If they’re Italian, it’s a mob. But if they’re Jewish, it’s a coincidence and you should never speak about it.”

The comedian said he understood how somebody could<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/dave-chappelle-delivers-controversial-monologue-on-snl-mocks-kanye-west-and-others-533906"> “adopt the delusion”</a> that Jewish people “run show business. It’s not a crazy thing to think. But it’s a crazy thing to say out loud in a climate like this.”

Jonathan Greenblatt slammed the monologue and took to Twitter to write, “We shouldn’t expect @DaveChappelle to serve as society’s moral compass, but disturbing to see @nbcsnl not just normalize but popularize #antisemitism.

As India celebrates&nbsp;Children's Day on November 14, here's what you shouldn't miss. From&nbsp;‘Shyam Ki Mummy’, ‘Maya: Find Your Light’, to&nbsp;‘Daak Ghar’, Zee Theatre brings an exciting offering for the little ones.&nbsp;

Plays for children are a less explored genre though veterans like PL Deshpande, Qudsia Zaidi, Sai Paranjpye, Poile Sengupta and even Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore, among others have done their bit in different epochs to tell enriching stories to a younger audience. &nbsp;

An overview:&nbsp;

Ashok Patole's 'Shyam Ki Mummy’

Noted Marathi playwright, Ashok Patole, known for plays like ‘Maa Retire Hoti Hai’ and ‘Ek Chavat Sandhyakaal’ has always incorporated socially relevant messages in his work and ‘Shyam Ki Mummy’ is no different. Jointly directed by Dnyanesh Bhalekar and Purshottam Berde, the play is a take on the flaws of the modern education system, and depicts how a 12th grader, Shyam, is denied fun and joy in the pursuit of the highest rank in his Board exams. His mother, a bank officer, even takes an annual leave to monitor her child! Watch the play to see the ‘result’ of these hectic exam preparations.

The play stars Nirmiti Sawant, Milind Phatak, Dharmaj Joshi, Rahul Kumar, and Sayali Sudhakar. 
&nbsp; 
Shaheen Mistri's 'Maya: Find Your Light'

Who does not want to travel to a charmed wonderland? This transportive, musical and motivational play written by Shaheen Mistri &nbsp;sets our imagination free with the story of 13-year-old Maya. She is the princess of the ‘Kingdom of Light’ and is entrusted with the responsibility of defeating the evil king of darkness. Accompanied by a goofy peacock, and a beloved snake, she undertakes a journey that &nbsp;eventually becomes a life-transforming experience for her. The play, entirely enacted by child artists, portrays the importance of 'finding your light', trusting one’s voice, believing in yourself, and being brave irrespective of the odds. &nbsp;

Jointly directed by Sanaya Bharucha and Laurent Festas, it stars Khushi Chauhan, Prasad Kela, Priyanka Patil, Rutuja Bhoite, Shlok Sadlapurka, Yash Agarwal, and Aniket Sahani.

Rabindranath Tagore's 'Daak Ghar'

Rabindranath Tagore created seminal literary works for children and ‘Daak Ghar’ is one such poignant play. &nbsp;Written in 1912, it is set in rural Bengal and delves into the psyche of an orphan boy, Amal, who is suffering from an incurable disease. His only contact with the outside world is a &nbsp;window &nbsp;and one day, he gets to know about a ‘Daak Ghar’ or a post office that the King will be opening near his house. Instantly, he begins to dream of &nbsp;becoming a postmaster and to meet the King. &nbsp;Watch the play to know if Amal's wish ever comes true.

Directed by the National Award-winning director, Nagesh Kukunoor, the play stars Krrish Chhabria, Saurabh Goel, Kumar Rajput, Kishor Chandra Srivastava, and Anupriya Goenka.
