Meet Leighton Meester's New Character In ‘The Buccaneers' Season 2 Trailer As Nan Tries To 'Let Go' Of Guy
The full trailer for Season 2 of Apple TV+'s period drama The Buccaneers has arrived, and it teases more sisterhood, romance, love affairs, bold declarations, bright gowns, breathtaking landscapes and a plot twist or two. The second season welcomes series newcomer Leighton Meester, whose character Nell can be seen at the end of the clip asking Christina Hendricks' Patricia St. George to introduce her to Kristine Frøseth's Nan St. George. More from Deadline 'The Buccaneers' Season 2 Casts Greg Wise, Maria Almeida, Grace Ambrose & Jacob Ifan 'The Buccaneers' Season 2 Sets Apple TV+ Release Date; Reveals First Look At Leighton Meester, Photos & Teaser Clip Zoë Kravitz On Playing A "More Psychotic" Version Of Herself In 'The Studio': "If You Can't Make Fun Of Yourself, I Think There's Something Wrong" 'Theo and I are happy,' Nan says at the beginning of the clip. 'I'm in this for life.' This declaration comes after Nan had to make a difficult decision and marry Theo (Guy Remmers), Duke of Tintagel, so that her flame Guy Thwarte (Matthew Broome) could help Nan's sister Ginny (Imogen Waterhouse) escape from her abusive husband Lord James Seadown (Barney Fishwick). 'Everything before 'I do' is now irrelevant,' Theo's mother, the Dowager Duchess of Tintagel (Amelia Bullmore) tells Nan in the woods, sternly advising Nan to be faithful to her husband. 'All Theo needs to know is that he has a dutiful and loving wife, but Annabel, anyone can be a wife. You are…' 'A Duchess,' Nan completes. 'I really want to make this version of my life work. I have to let Guy go.' The clip features Chappell Roan's 'Good Luck Babe,' continuing the tradition established in Season 1 with a modern soundtrack of mostly women artists. Cue Guy's voiceover perspective as he and Jinny escape somewhere bright and sunny with Jinny's baby. 'Everything has changed except the way I feel,' he says as he looks at the newspaper headlines, which tell him what is happening in Nan's world, advertising her honeymoon with Theo. 'Theo thinks this is real,' Nan tells her mother. 'He thinks I chose to marry him.' 'You did the bravest thing I have ever known,' Patty tells Nan. 'And saved your sister.' Nan fiercely stands up to Lord Seadown both one on one and at a dining table full of guests. 'No man should be allowed to own his wife,' she asserts. Cut to a triumphant walk by Nan in a bright red dress with a bold hairstyle as guests turn heads. 'Happily Ever After' flashes in bright neon blue across the long train of her dress. More musical moments and needle drops in Season 2 will include Taylor Swift, as well as songs from Lady Gaga, Sabrina Carpenter, Gracie Abrams, Clairo, Sharon Van Etten, St. Vincent, Bleachers and The Last Dinner Party. The original soundtrack for season two celebrates the return of executive music producer Stella Mozgawa and features Empress Of's new single 'Little Secret' out today with the trailer along with new music from Suki Waterhouse, Madi Diaz, Holly Humberstone, Kacy Hill, Jade Bird, Emily Kokal of Warpaint and more. The second installment of the show, inspired by Edith Wharton's unfinished novel, also reunites returning stars Alisha Boe, Aubri Ibrag, Josie Totah, Mia Threapleton and more. The Buccaneers returns to Apple TV+ Wednesday, June 18, 2025 with one episode followed by one new episode every Wednesday through August 6, 2025.

‘The Studio' Emmy predictions: How many nominations can it get?
Seth Rogen just might get to make a few acceptance speeches after all. While his on-camera doppelganger Matt Remick was desperate to be thanked from the Golden Globes stage, the cocreator/star/writer/director of Apple TV+'s The Studio may not have to worry. The freshman comedy may well prove to be the spoiler in the much-anticipated Emmys rematch between Hacks and The Bear — especially given its deep cast of A-list stars, the high-wire act of those oners, and Hollywood's love of celebrating itself. SEE'The Studio' episodes ranked, from worst to best With eight slots for best comedy, The Studio is assured of a nomination — the only question is whether it will unseat the reigning champ, Hacks. As of now The Studio is in second place on Gold Derby's predictions charts, but it's verrrrry close — and this time out, there's no debate about whether these contenders are comedies. Both bring on the laughs, both are a love letter to/satire of the industry, and both are undeniable hits. More from GoldDerby Kathryn Bigelow's Netflix Oscar hopeful gets explosive title: 'A House of Dynamite' Golden Globes set 2026 awards timeline, Best Podcast eligibility rules Jeremy Allen White is 'Born to Run' in the first trailer for Bruce Springsteen biopic 'Deliver Me From Nowhere' Apple With just 51 submissions, there are only five slots up for grabs, but Rogen is in solid second here, too — just behind SAG winner Martin Short. Either of them are likely going to eventually unseat two-time winner Jeremy Allen White — though the well-timed, though as yet-unseen-by-critics season four debut of The Bear on June 25 could prove a narrative shift for the FX series. But Rogen, who's been making the rounds on the FYC campaign trail, will undoubtedly hear his name called on July 15 for his bumbling, hapless studio executive. "It doesn't feel like I am having to shift gears between acting and writing and producing and directing," Rogen told Gold Derby. "As I'm acting, I'm also directing the scenes in a very subtle way, and I'm also rewriting the scene sometimes. And so to me, I actually think I feel the most comfortable when I'm doing all those things." SEESeth Rogen on taking big swings with 'The Studio': 'Are people just going to think this looks insane?' Who doesn't love Catherine O'Hara? She swept the TV awards cycle in 2020 for Schitt's Creek, and is a favorite among both audiences and her fellow actors. Which is why she's well-positioned for a double nomination this year — as supporting actress for The Studio, and for her guest turn on The Last of Us. (She can do drama! She can do comedy!) The only question is whether her costar and another potential double nominee can get in as well: Kathryn Hahn, who's in seventh place in our odds for supporting actress for The Studio as well as lead actress for Agatha All Along. Luckily, this category will have a deserving seven slots to fill, especially considering the competition from Hacks (Hannah Einbinder), The Bear (Liza Colon-Zayas), Abbott Elementary (Sheryl Lee Ralph, Janelle James), and Shrinking (Jessica Williams). (Costars Keyla Monterroso Mejia and Chase Sui Wonders were submitted in the category as well, but likely won't make the cut.) Apple TV+ Will we get to hear the magic words "Thank you, Sal Saperstein"? Ike Barinholtz stands in fourth place in our odds, comfortably secure in another seven-slot race; he, too, will have to fend off a two-time champion from The Bear, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, against the potential mid-summer momentum of Season 4. But the real surge may belong to Harrison Ford, another acting overachiever this season, who pulled double-duty with not only his well-hailed comedic turn in Shrinking but also weathered the winters of Taylor Sheridan's 1923 opposite another name familiar to award voters: Helen Mirren. The competition here also include Hacks star Paul W. Downs, Abbott Elementary's Tyler James Williams, and Ford's Shrinking costars Brett Goldstein and Michael Urie. SEE'Every actor likes to play a villain': Ron Howard on playing himself in 'The Studio' Apple TV+ Has one show ever swept an entire category? Unlikely, yes, but given The Studio's powerhouse lineup of cameos, it's not inconceivable that the majority of the six slots will go to at least two, if not three, of these names: Bryan Cranston, Martin Scorsese, Ron Howard, Dave Franco, David Krumholtz, Anthony Mackie, Nicholas Stoller, Zac Efron — and yes, Matt Belloni. (If only rival studio head Ted Sarandos had been submitted!) The race is Cranston's to lose — and Howard could even get nominated for playing himself twice. He's so good at playing himself, he did it also on Only Murders in the Building. 'I'm not quite that affable and fun-loving, nor am I the hard-ass in The Studio,' Howard told Gold Derby. 'I think I land somewhere in the middle.' Apple TV+ Name recognition always rules in this category, and The Studio's casting team worked their magic: Zoe Kravitz, Sarah Polley, Greta Lee, Olivia Wilde, and Rebecca Hall are all on the ballot. Currently ranked No. 7 in our prediction charts, Kravitz is the closest to breaking in to the magic six slots, with Polley and Wilde close behind. Years past have shown that single shows tend to sweep up the lion's share of nominations, so perhaps that will propel one or more of them to make the cut. But here again, they'll have to overtake buzzy performances from — you guessed it — Hacks (Julianne "Dance Mom" Nicholson) and The Bear (Jamie Lee Curtis). Not to mention Cynthia Erivo, who should get five slots alone for playing quintuplets on Poker Face. Apple Playing it safe — and strategic — The Studio submitted just one episode, "The Promotion," for writing, penned by Rogen, Evan Goldberg, Peter Huyck, Alex Gregory, and Frida Perez. It's the pilot that sets the tone, establishes the characters, and raises the stakes for the rest of the season — it's hard to imagine the show being nommed without the episode that put it on the map. As for the competition for the six slots, last season's winner, Hacks, too, also laid all its cards on just one episode: season 4's penultimate "A Slippery Slope," where all of the tensions that have been bubbling finally burst through. The Bear opted for two: "Napkins," Tina's backstory, and "Ice Chips," Natalie's labor episode. Strategy matters, here, too — and here again, The Studio went for its strongest directorial effort, "The Oner." Much ink, digital and otherwise, has been spilled over how the episode about a oner was shot as a oner, so suffice it to say that Rogen and Goldberg's directorial achievement here will not escape voters' notice. Vying for the other five slots: three episodes from The Bear which did earn two category noms last year and again, "A Slippery Slope" from Hacks. 'There were a few moments where I almost lost my mind, and then I reminded myself that I am the one who chose to do this,' Rogen said. 'Weird for me to get mad at someone for that. But it really was an amazing team effort.' SEESeth Rogen explains how 'The Studio' pulled off its one-shot episode But wait, there's more: With its intentionally retro feel, The Studio is a natural contender for production design, cinematography, casting, costumes, and even hairstyling. "Everyone else in the show is like a throwback and dresses in a nostalgic kind of way," Rogen said at the FYC panel for The Studio. "But the idea was that [Kathryn Hahn's character] would be on the crackling edge of fashion. ... The hair, though, became a whole thing I had nothing to do with. I just went along for the ride." Best of GoldDerby 'It was wonderful to be on that ride': Christian Slater talks his beloved roles, from cult classics ('Heathers,' 'True Romance') to TV hits ('Mr. Robot,' 'Dexter: Original Sin') Sam Rockwell on Frank's 'White Lotus' backstory, Woody Harrelson's influence, and going all in on 'this arc of Buddhist to Bad Lieutenant' Asif Ali and Saagar Shaikh admit they 'never had the audacity to realize' a show like 'Deli Boys' was possible Click here to read the full article.

Kathryn Bigelow's Netflix Oscar hopeful gets explosive title: ‘A House of Dynamite'
Netflix has Big(elow) ambitions for this year's Oscar race. On Wednesday morning, the streaming giant shared fresh details about the awards hopeful formerly known as 'Untitled Kathryn Bigelow Project,' hailing from the Oscar-winning filmmaker behind The Hurt Locker and Zero Dark Thirty. Bigelow's latest film is officially called A House of Dynamite and features an A-list cast that includes Idris Elba, Rebecca Ferguson, Greta Lee, and Tracy Letts. More from GoldDerby Golden Globes set 2026 awards timeline, Best Podcast eligibility rules 'The Studio' Emmy predictions: How many nominations can it get? Jeremy Allen White is 'Born to Run' in the first trailer for Bruce Springsteen biopic 'Deliver Me From Nowhere' Written by Noah Oppenheim — the former NBC News president-turned-lauded screenwriter of films like Jackie — the all-too-timely premise involves a rogue missile headed directly for American shores. While the explosive projectile is in flight, officials at the highest levels of power scramble to figure out which country or organization is responsible for the inbound attack. In addition to the title, Netflix shared an evocative first-look image for A House of Dynamite, featuring a solider in full battle rattle under a blood red sky. The streamer also confirmed that the film will receive a limited theatrical release in October, followed by an Oct. 24 streaming launch. Courtesy Netflix It's Bigelow's first theatrically released feature since 2017's Detroit, an eight-year gap that she has filled with projects ranging from executive producing J.C. Chandor's Netflix favorite Triple Frontier to helming Super Bowl commercials for big brands like Budweiser. But any Bigelow-directed feature is well worth the wait. After helming such cult favorites as Near Dark and Strange Days in the '80s and '90s, she made Oscar history in 2010 as the first female filmmaker to win the Best Director statue for The Hurt Locker. That acclaimed Iraq War drama also toppled the Goliath known as James Cameron's Avatar to win Best Picture. Two years later, the tick-tock war on terror thriller Zero Dark Thirty put her back in the Best Picture race and nabbed four additional nominations for its screenplay, film editing, sound editing, and Jessica Chastain's acclaimed star turn. Considering current geopolitical tensions, A House of Dynamite is likely going to be an explosive addition to Netflix's awards slate and could net Bigelow her second directing Oscar nod. "It's the moment of a lifetime," she said while accepting her historic win in 2010. Since that victory, only two other women have won Best Director statues: Chloé Zhao for Nomadland in 2021 and Jane Campion for The Power of the Dog in 2022.

TV's double threats: 10 actors eyeing nominations for both comedy and drama at the 2025 Emmys
The 2025 Emmys could have viewers seeing double when nominations are announced on July 15. This year, several of TV's most versatile stars — true double threats — are vying for spots in both comedy and drama categories. From Catherine O'Hara's wildly contrasting roles in The Studio and The Last of Us to Jon Hamm's dual turn in Your Friends and Neighbors and his hosting stint on Saturday Night Live, the race is shaping up to celebrate TV's finest multidimensional talent. Historically, it's not uncommon for an actor to score two Emmy nominations in a single year — but being recognized for both a dramatic and comedic performance in the same year is far rarer, and winning both is nearly unheard of. In fact, only two actors have ever managed a double victory of this caliber: Colleen Dewhurst (Murphy Brown and Those She Left Behind in 1989) and Allison Janney (Mom and Masters of Sex in 2014). More from GoldDerby Alan Cumming would be the 4th person to repeat in Best Reality Host: See fresh Emmy odds Dolly Parton adds honorary Oscar to her trophy shelf: A look back at her legendary awards history 'It was wonderful to be on that ride': Christian Slater talks his beloved roles, from cult classics ('Heathers,' 'True Romance') to TV hits ('Mr. Robot,' 'Dexter: Original Sin') Using Gold Derby's latest odds, we've rounded up this year's most likely double nominees for comedy and drama — showcasing performances that stand out for both laughter and heartbreak. The two-time Emmy winner (Schitt's Creek, STCV) is back in the spotlight — and doubling her chances — with two standout roles: as Gail Lynden, a resilient therapist in HBO's post-apocalyptic drama The Last of Us, and Patty Leigh, the hilariously chaotic former head of Continental Studios in Apple TV+'s new comedy The Studio. O'Hara is positioned well in both races, currently ranked second for Best Drama Guest Actress, trailing her The Last of Us costar Kaitlyn Dever, and third for Best Comedy Supporting Actress, behind Hannah Einbinder (Hacks) and Liza Colon-Zayas (The Bear). The two-time Emmy nominee (Fallout, Justified) is seeking his first statuette from the TV Academy — and his best chance comes with HBO's red-hot The White Lotus. Goggins is currently the frontrunner for Best Drama Supporting Actor for his compelling turn as Rick Hatchett in Mike White's celebrated mystery series. But he could also nab a nomination for comedy, with two opportunities to break into the race: Best Comedy Supporting Actor for his scene-stealing role as Baby Billy in HBO's The Righteous Gemstones (where he's ranked 12th) and Best Guest Comedy Actor for his memorable hosting stint on NBC's Saturday Night Live (currently ranked 18th). A previous Emmy winner for her heartbreaking performance in HBO's limited series Mare of Easttown, Nicholson is now turning heads in comedy. Her best shot this year comes with her hilarious portrayal of "Dance Mom" in Max's Emmy-winning comedy series Hacks, where she's currently ranked second in the Best Comedy Guest Actress race, just behind reigning champ Jamie Lee Curtis (The Bear). On the drama side, Nicholson is also in contention for her role in Hulu's political thriller Paradise, playing the complex and morally conflicted Sinatra opposite Sterling K. Brown. She currently ranks 12th for Best Drama Supporting Actress. An 11-time Emmy nominee including both comedic and dramatic performances (The Office, The Morning Show), Carell is no stranger to accolades — but he's still chasing his first win. This year, he's back in contention with two standout performances: as the conflicted Nick in Netflix's comedy The Four Seasons and for his emotionally charged (and darkly comedic, but let's call it dramatic) turn as Randall in HBO's TV movie Mountainhead. Carell is currently ranked eighth for Best Comedy Actor and and 10th for Best Movie/Limited Series Actor. The three-time Emmy nominee (Hacks, Flipped) has been recognized twice before for her role as DJ Vance in Hacks, so it's no surprise Olson is back in the conversation — this time ranked fifth for Best Comedy Guest Actress. However, Olson is also making waves on the drama side, ranked 10th in Best Drama Actress for her portrayal of Morgan Gillory, an intellectually gifted cleaning lady who becomes a police consultant, in ABC's High Potential. A three-time Emmy winner (Orange Is the New Black, Mrs. America), Aduba is a perennial awards favorite. This year, she's vying for recognition in two standout roles: as Cordelia Cupp, an eccentric detective bringing laughs and intrigue in Netflix's comedy series The Residence, and as Clarice, a perfectionist pianist navigating the complexities of her marriage in Hulu's The Supremes at Earl's All-You-Can-Eat. Aduba is currently ranked ninth for Best Comedy Actress and 12th for Best Movie/Limited Series Actress. Hot off his Emmy win last year for The Bear, Bernthal is back to defend his title as Best Comedy Guest Actor, currently ranked second behind Bryan Cranston (The Studio). Once again, he portrays Mikey Berzatto, the troubled but charismatic older brother of Carmy (Jeremy Allen White) and Natalie (Abby Elliott), whose battle with drug addiction and tragic death loom heavily over the series. Bernthal is also a dark-horse contender for Best Drama Guest Actor, where he's ranked 26th for his brooding performance as Frank Castle/Punisher in Disney+'s Daredevil: Born Again. Returning to her Emmy-nominated role as Belinda in Season 3 of The White Lotus, Rothwell was even more captivating in Thailand than she was in Hawaii. She's currently ranked fifth in the race for Best Drama Supporting Actress. Simultaneously, Rothwell shines in Hulu's critically acclaimed comedy series How to Die Alone, where she stars as Mel, "a down-on-her-luck Black woman working at JFK Airport," making Rothwell a dark-horse contender for Best Comedy Actress. Hollywood legend Harrison Ford is still waiting for his first Emmy nomination, and this year he has two strong opportunities to break through. His best shot is for Apple TV+'s comedy series Shrinking, where he delivers a moving and humorous performance as Dr. Paul Rhoades, a therapist navigating life with Parkinson's disease. Recent nods from the Critics Choice, Golden Globe, and SAG Awards could help bolster his Emmy chances. Ford is also in the mix for his powerful dramatic turn as Jacob Dutton in 1923, Paramount+'s Yellowstone prequel from Taylor Sheridan. Currently, Ford ranks second for Best Comedy Supporting Actor behind Ebon Moss-Bachrach (The Bear), and 38th for Best Drama Actor. The Emmys have long had a love affair with Jon Hamm, who boasts 18 prior nominations (and one win for the final season of Mad Men in 2015). Just last year, he scored a double nomination for his dramatic roles in Fargo and The Morning Show. This year, Hamm has another chance to secure two nods, showcasing his range once again: as Andrew "Coop" Cooper, a disillusioned financier who turns to stealing from his neighbors after losing his job, in the Apple TV+ drama Your Friends and Neighbors, and for his hosting gig on Saturday Night Live. Currently, Hamm is ranked 10th for Best Drama Actor and 14th for Best Comedy Guest Actor.
