Netflix
  • Hannah New will play Lady Tilley Arnold, a fiery widow in Bridgerton.
  • The 38-year-old actress is most known for her role as Eleanor Guthrie on Black Sails.
  • She also starred opposite Angelina Jolie in Maleficent and Danny Boyle’s Trust.

Hannah New from Black Sails will join the cast of Bridgerton on Netflix.

Lady Tilley Arnold, a fiery widow, will be portrayed by New. According to the source, New’s character experiences early widowhood. She does, however, take use of the advantages and power that come with running her ex-fortune, husband’s leading a life of sexual and financial independence.

The 38-year-old actress is most known for her four seasons of Black Sails’ Eleanor Guthrie. Hannah also made her name portraying Princess Leila opposite Angelina Jolie in the 2014 film Maleficent. She has since been in Danny Boyle’s Trust and Guillermo del Toro’s The Strain, both of which were produced by FX.

The upcoming season of Bridgerton will centre on Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington’s romance (aka Lady Whistledown). Penelope “determined it’s time to marry a husband, preferably one who will provide her with enough independence” so she can continue to live both her lives as Penelope and as the infamous author Lady Whistledown after she has given up on her crush on Colin.

Colin on the other hand returns from his summer travels “with a new look and a serious sense of swagger.” However, the young Bridgerton lad is disheartened to see that his friend, Penelope is now giving him the “cold shoulder.” In a bid to win her friendship again, Colin offers to help her in finding her a husband by giving her lesson on confidence. Although, he will soon find himself in a dilemma – whether he likes her as just a friend or more…

While Netflix has not announced a date, the series is currently in production, which means new episodes are likely to be released sometime in 2023.

Ekta Kapoor lands in legal trouble

Ekta Kapoor
  • Ekta Kapoor is a television producer, film producer, and filmmaker.
  • Kapoor’s appeal against the arrest warrants issued against her for allegedly disrespecting soldiers was being heard by the Supreme Court.
  • Mukul Rohatgi, a seasoned attorney, represented Kapoor in court

Ekta Kapoor, a television producer, film producer, and filmmaker best known for her work in Hindi soap operas, seems to be in the midst of a never-ending string of problems. She is credited with launching a number of well-known television programmes, including Kasamh Se, Kahaani Ghar Ghar Ki, Kabhii Sautan Kabhii Sahelii, Kohi Apna Sa, Kaahin Kissii Roz, Kalash, Kasautii Zindagii Kay, and Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi. She is the co-managing director and creative director of Balaji Telefilms Limited, for the uninitiated.

According to news source Press Trust of India, the top court in India criticised producer Ekta Kapoor on Friday for the “objectionable content” in her online series XXX, claiming “she was contaminating the minds of the young population of this country.”

The Supreme Court informs Ekta Kapoor’s attorney that you are tainting the minds of the next generation.
According to PTI, Kapoor’s appeal against the arrest warrants issued against her for allegedly disrespecting soldiers and hurting their families in the web series that was broadcast on her OTT platform ALTBalaji was being heard by the Supreme Court of India.

“There is a need to act. You are contaminating the minds of this nation’s future leaders. Everybody may access it. All people can access OTT (Over The Top) content. What sort of options are you giving the populace? Instead, you are contaminating children’s minds “According to news agency PTI, the statement was made by a bench of Justices Ajay Rastogi and C T Ravikumar.

Mukul Rohatgi, a seasoned attorney, represented Kapoor in court. Prior to the court’s observation, Rohatgi stated, according to the news agency, “a plea has been filed before the Patna high court, but there is no prospect the matter would be assigned for hearing soon.”

PTI reported, that Rohatgi, in the Court said, “The content is subscription-based and that there is freedom of choice in this country.”

Wondering what kind of choice is being given to people, the Bench observed, “Every time you travel to this court….we don’t appreciate this. We will put a cost on you for filing such a petition. Mr Rohatgi, please convey this to your client. Just because you can afford and hire the services of good lawyers….this court is not for those who have voices.”

“This court works for those who don’t have voices…if these people who have all kinds of facilities if they cannot get justice then think of the situation of this common man. We have seen the order and we have our reservations,” the bench observed.

As of now, the Supreme Court has kept the matter pending and the next date of hearing will be known soon.

“I’ve especially fond memories of him keeping our spirits up on Prisoner of Azkaban, when we were all hiding from the torrential rain for hours in Hagrid’s hut and he was telling stories and cracking jokes to keep morale up, I feel incredibly lucky that I got to meet and work with him and very sad that he’s passed,” Daniel added. “He was an incredible actor and lovely man.”

Emma also poured her heart out over the sad news, “Robbie was like the most fun uncle I’ve ever had, but most of all he was deeply caring and compassionate towards me as a child and an adult.

I’ll really miss your sweetness, your nicknames, your warmth, your laughs and your hugs. You made us a family. Know you were that to us. There was no better Hagrid. You made it a joy to be Hermione.”

He added, “Effortlessly. And made them laugh. Effortlessly. He was a big friendly giant on screen but even more so In real life. Love you mate – thank you for everything xx.”

James and Oliver Phelps, who played twins, Fred and George Weasley, in the blockbuster series, spoke warmly of the late star as James said, “I will miss the random chats about all subjects under the sun.And I’ll never forget in September 2000, Robbie Coltrane came over to a very nervous 14yr old me on my 1st ever day on a movie set and said ‘Enjoy it, you’ll be great.’ Thank you for that x”

“November 2001 – Leicester Square, London. ‘Soak this in lads, its like a Rolls-Royce for your first car!’ Robbie Coltrane when he was next to me on the red carpet of the first HP premiere. Over the years we had some great chats about history and travel. Rest in peace Robbie x,” shared Oliver.
