Chalamet-Jenner Rift: Oscar Loss Blamed on Kylie

0:00This is your entertainment update for March 18th. A24 is remaking the 1988 Action-Hit Bloodsport, the one that launched Jean-Claude Vendamm to start him. Dave tapped Emmy-winning talent, Michaela Cole, to write and direct his fresh take on the underground martial arts tournament story. Cole earned a claim for creating and writing the series, I may destroy you, which snagged an Emmy for outstanding writing in a limited series. She also won an Emmy for guest acting in Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and has credits in Black Panther Wakanda Forever. Cole shared her excitement about diving into the intense world of fighters and their discipline. Producers Mark Tobarov and Alberto Lindsey are leading the project, with A24 handling financing and distribution. The original Bloodsport followed a US Army captain entering Hong Kong's secret Kumite fights. It became a cult favorite, pulling in $50 million on a budget under $2,500,000. Talks for this reboot kicked off in April 2025, after earlier attempts fizzled out.

1:04Expect Cole's unique spin to bring new energy to the high-stakes fights. Support for this episode comes from our sponsor. See the description. Comfort, you can hear. Sound you can relax into. S-O-L-I, solelypillow.com. Made in AI.
