The very first episode of HBO‘s new legal drama War wastes no time letting us know how brutal the divorce of Martin Henderson (Dominic West) and Carla Duval (Sienna Miller) is going to be. **Spoilers for War Episode 1 “It’s Done,” now streaming on HBO Max** We’ve got Carla sending friends to honeypot Martin, Martin letting his lawyers serve Carla divorce papers at her own premiere, and a mole working at one law firm (Taylor & Byrne) only to report back to the other (Cathcart & Sons).

The new HBO show War stars Dominic West and Sienna Miller as a rich and famous couple kicking off one killer divorce. Staffing their respective law firms — Cathcarts & Sons and Taylor & Byrne — are a cast of British character actors whom you’ve seen before in shows like The Crown, Andor, and The Great. But who plays Flora Monroe, the gorgeous girl who ensnares Martin Henderson (Dominic West) in a classic “honeypot” scheme at the behest of his wife, Carla Duval (Sienna Miller)?

It’s going to be a busy Friday night for Starz subscribers. Not only does the third episode of Outlander: Blood of my Blood Season 2 (“Rabbits Don’t Swim) air at 8:05 p.m. ET, but the second episode of S.W.A. T. Exiles (“Clean Entry”) also drops at 10:00 p.m. ET. Both episodes will also be streaming early (midnight) on the STARZ app.

In the new Freeform/Disney+ series Coven Academy, three teenage witches form a coven that learns to control their powers and work together. And they need to do that because it seems that New Orleans is under threat from vampires and… maybe even worse monsters? Opening Shot: Bourbon Street in New Orleans.

Freeform’s annual 31 Days of Halloween kicks off today with the exclusive premiere of a new witchy series. Coven Academy premieres tonight, Oct. 1, with four back-to-back episodes beginning at 8 p.m. ET. The series, which was originally planned to air on Disney Channel, will debut instead on Freeform.

Warning: This article contains mild spoilers for The Debut, coming to movie theaters on December 11. It’s not often that New York Film Festival press audiences—overworked and underpaid film critics who have way too many movies to watch—burst into spontaneous applause, mid-movie. But, to my delight, that’s exactly what happened at the Thursday morning NYFF press and industry screening of The Debut, a lively, laugh-out-loud comedy coming to U.S. theaters in December.

John Steinbeck’s East of Eden is considered to be one of the greatest American novels ever written, thanks to its epic scope, Biblical references, and monstrous “matriarch” Cathy Ames. Elia Kazan’s classic film version (starring James Dean) tackled the tome’s famous final chapters, but now his granddaughter, Zoë Kazan, has written a Netflix adaptation that delves into the book’s nooks and crannies with a modern sensibility.

The Home Box Office is putting its own spin on the legal drama. War — premiering tonight at 9 PM ET on HBO and HBO Max — follows a bitter divorce between glamorous movie star Carla Duval (Sienna Miller) and tech billionaire Morgan Henderson (Dominic West).

Nothing like a new dog to come in and shake up the old dog’s bag of tricks… at least that’s the case as far as John Higgins‘ Scrubs Season 2 character is concerned. In the two-episode premiere of the ABC comedy, viewers finally got a glimpse of the chief resident character, Grant Summers, that the Saturday Night Live alum is playing in the series, and it seems as though he has no issue going toe-to-toe with J.D. (Zach Braff), despite being lower on the totem pole at Sacred Heart.

Neagley made quite the impression on Prime Video subscribers. The Reacher spinoff, which centers on Maria Sten‘s Frances Neagley, has landed a second season at the streamer, just over two weeks after the series made its debut. Neagley follows the titular private investigator in Chicago, who sets out to find justice for her friend after he’s been killed in a mysterious accident.
