Gosling Surprises Mendes on Tonight Show, Celebrates Teachers

0:00On this March 6th, here's what's making entertainment headlines. Daryl Hanna has spoken out against Ryan Murphy's new series Love Story, which dramatizes the life and marriage of John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn, set. In a guest essay for The New York Times, the actress calls the show's portrayal of her long, on-and-off romance with Kennedy Jr., inaccurate, and unfair. She plays down claims of drug use and other dramatic elements shown as her character, played by Dre Hemingway. Hanna says the depiction paints her as a villain blocking the couple's romance, which she denies completely. She notes that producers did not consult real people involved, basing the story instead on a recent book about the set. The actress reports facing hostile messages and threats from viewers who took the show as fact. She worries that in today's digital world, TV fiction can overwrite real history and stick around online forever. Producer Nina Jacobson defends the approach, saying they aimed for compassion and complexity in all characters, even though seen as obstacles to the main love story.

1:05Kennedy Jr.'s nephew, Jack Schlossberg, has also slammed the series as fiction chasing profit over truth. Meanwhile, FX reports huge success for the show, with the first five episodes drawing over 25 million hours of viewing on Disney Plus and Hulu, making it their top-limited series ever on streaming.
