Stranger Things cast is about to renegotiate deals
Stranger Things cast is about to renegotiate deals and breakout @milliebbrown may separate herself from the guys. https://t.co/lRp2Lo7Bkq

Netflix faces a possibility that all of the Stranger Things child stars will band together to negotiate deals for upcoming seasons of the show.
Kid actors Finn Wolfhard, Millie Bobby Brown, Gaten Matarazzo and Caleb McLaughlin each got $30,000 per episode for the first and second seasons with a bonus (less than six figures)
The cast is signed for six years, but a renegotiation will happen early next year.
Netflix hoped to shoot seasons 3 and 4 back-to-back to get ahead of any potentially awkward adolescent transitions for its young actors.
Show creators Matt and Ross Duffer and executive producers Shawn Levy and Dan Cohen are said to have vetoed that idea : The writers room is small and it is not possible to turn out episodes that quickly.
Stranger Things clearly is the streaming service's most important franchise.

The summer may be over but that doesn't mean that Brit has stopped working on her beach bod. The elusive chanteuse provided us with an update on her fitness routine, serving some serious #fitspo.
Brit also got a new hairstyle, which she might have regretted. ("Got my roots colored today!!! But now I think I want to CUT it!!!!")
She also gave a shoutout to Jay-Z giving her a shoutout: "When this song came out, I lost my mind like a little kid!!! I fangirled and cried!!"
Finally here's Brit and Jayden giving you a poop themed snap moment.
As is always the case with Brit, some new footage found its way online this week, including Britney dancing in a 2008 photoshoot for Rolling Stone, extra footage from her 2011 TV special I Am The Femme Fatale and a behind the scenes video of her iconic 2001 Superbowl Pepsi commercial.

'Game of Thrones' series finale will have multiple endings filmed to throw off viewers & spoilers
Report: Game of Thrones to shoot multiple endings for series finale https://t.co/HjKcOfQazZpic.twitter.com/IZxog7wPDp
— James Hibberd (@JamesHibberd) September 13, 2017
To much of no surprise, reports are coming out that the series finale of 'Game of Thrones' (probably debuting in 2019) will have multiple endings filmed in advance to throw off fans, viewers, and hackers worldwide, and avoid spoilers.
Said head of HBO Casey Bloys this week: “I know in ‘Game of Thrones,’ the ending, they’re going to shoot multiple versions so that nobody really know what happens. You have to do that on a long show. Because when you’re shooting something, people know. So they’re going to shoot multiple versions so that there’s no real definitive answer until the end.”
This isn't a new thing, as lots of shows have shot multiple endings to throw off viewers, including: 'Breaking Bad', 'The Sopranos', and most famously the 'Who Shot JR?' finale of 'Dallas' decades ago.

A new excerpt from Hillary's book has her comparing her experiences in the 2016 election to Cersei Lannister's during the Walk of Shame.
“Crowds at Trump rallies called for my imprisonment more times than I can count,” she writes. “They shouted, ‘Guilty! Guilty!’ like the religious zealots in ‘Game of Thrones’ chanting ‘Shame! Shame!’ while Cersei Lannister walked back to the Red Keep.”

'American Idol' filming may be delayed - still no judges besides Katy
'American Idol' May Be Delayed, and That Causes Problems with Katy Perry https://t.co/RAqCCYxuFe
— TMZ (@TMZ) September 14, 2017
- American Idol may need to delay taping. They are still unable to land any judges besides $25-mil Katy Perry.
- If filming is postponed, it might conflict with Perry's Witness tour, which would cause trouble.
- Idol is no closer to signing desired 2nd judge Luke Bryan, as he wants more money and has no interest in the "Disney perks" (which included theme park partnerships) producers offered him instead of cash.
- No progress has been made at all on the 3rd judge.

Larry King revealed today that he was diagnosed with stage 1 lung cancer in July during a routine physical.
King, 83, had the spot of cancer removed several weeks after diagnosis and was back at work a week later.
He hopes this scare stresses how important annual physicals are, since that was the only reason his cancer was caught so early.

White House calls for firing of ESPN anchor who called Trump a white supremacist
JUST IN: White House demands ESPN fire host who called Trump a "white supremacist" https://t.co/BlCgjVupjUpic.twitter.com/PEzeXlu2Zt
— The Hill (@thehill) September 13, 2017
- On Monday, ESPN anchor Jemele Hill posted a series of tweets explicitly calling the president a white supremacist, and implying that his supporters are as well
- ESPN issued a statement distancing themselves from Hill's remarks: "The comments on Twitter from Jemele Hill regarding the president do not represent the position of ESPN. We have addressed this with Jemele and she recognizes her actions were inappropriate."
- During today's White House press briefing, Sarah Huckabee Sanders called the comments "outrageous" and suggested that Hill should be fired
- Possible First Amendment violation - the government shouldn't be trying to get you fired for criticizing them!
Donald Trump is a white supremacist who has largely surrounded himself w/ other white supremacists.
— Jemele Hill (@jemelehill) September 11, 2017
Trump is the most ignorant, offensive president of my lifetime. His rise is a direct result of white supremacy. Period.

Comic Writer Gail Simone Weighs in on Bodega Backlash
I invented a bodega that replaces former Google employees.

Your bodega is facing an unprecedented threat. But I am here and shall help you. And your compatriots.
Farewell. pic.twitter.com/bp2tbxMjm2
This is in response to the recent blowback to a new startup called "Bodega" that essentially wants to put local bodegas/mom-and-pop grocery stores out of business by putting a glorified app controlled vending machine in your local apartments, office, dorms, or gyms. They're probably looking to get bought out by a bigger company
People have not taken kindly to this, pointing out the audacity in taking on the name and logo (a cat) of the very thing they're trying to disrupt and replace. Another criticism has been about two Silicon Valley types trying to get rid of a human connection, one often run by PoC.

— Fast Company (@FastCompany) September 13, 2017
Started by two ex-Google employees, they claimed they didn't think anyone would take offense to the name, but they were super wrong about that. They've since apologized about not understanding how much of a wave they'd cause with their choice of name.
"Yes, clearly. The name Bodega sparked a wave of criticism on social media far beyond what we ever imagined. When we first came up with the idea to call the company Bodega we recognized that there was a risk of it being interpreted as misappropriation. We did some homework — speaking to New Yorkers, branding people, and even running some survey work asking about the name and any potential offense it might cause. But it’s clear that we may not have been asking the right questions of the right people."

How HBO's Insecure Lights Its Cast So Well
.@HBO's Insecure has mastered the cinematographic art of properly lighting black faces #HBOInsecurepic.twitter.com/LdHH7oJDf5
— Mic (@mic) September 11, 2017
In the video, DP Ava Berkofsky talks about how she does the lighting on the show which is significant since historically in Hollywood, lighting on shows and movies haven't been the best for darker skinned black people.
Her main aim is to have something for the light to reflect off of, keyly by having the makeup department applying a reflective base and using a polarizer filter on her cameras.
