The Four Horsemen may be older and a little wiser, but their greatest illusion might be convincing us the ride isn’t over yet.

Few actors embody wisdom and gravitas like Morgan Freeman, a voice that soothes, a presence that commands, and performances that have defined generations. From his breakout in Street Smart to the timeless hope of The Shawshank Redemption, Freeman is more than an actor, he’s a cinematic institution.
What does it really mean to be Number One on the Call Sheet? In this landmark two-part documentary, Hollywood legends like Denzel Washington, Viola Davis, Angela Bassett, Eddie Murphy, and more pull back the curtain on the triumphs, pressures, and legacy of Black stardom.
What happens when the bond you can’t let go of might be the one thing holding you back? Sonequa Martin-Green and Natalie Morales shine in this offbeat, heartfelt comedy-drama about trauma, family, and the ghosts we choose to keep close.
Lioness is nothing if not consistent. Through the fog of its incessant sociopolitical incoherence (also nothing short of ur-typical of the militant-spy genre), each episode delivers an even mix of A-list scenery chewing, insane dialogue, and small-screen action that actually kinda rips.
Lioness can’t decide what war it’s fighting. In just three episodes, season 2 has racked up a kidnapped congresswoman, a mysterious threat from China, and our own corrupt DEA.
We’re only three episodes into Lioness season 2, and we’ve seen a ton of surprises.
What was a simple kidnapping plot is now concerned with preventing a global war with China.
