Netflix Revives "Star Search" & AMC's Summer Ticket Deal

In this Episode:

  • Netflix announces a live reboot of Star Search

  • New movies starring Denzel Washington, Robert Pattinson, and Jamie Foxx

  • Fan-favorite shows like Bridgerton and The Diplomat are returning

  • AMC will offer 50% off movie tickets every Wednesday this summer

Netflix Brings Back Star Search
At their latest Upfront presentation, Netflix revealed plans to revive the classic talent competition Star Search as a live event. Originally airing from 1983 to 1995 (with a short revival from 2003 to 2004), Star Search helped launch the careers of stars like Britney Spears and Beyoncé. Netflix hasn't released a premiere date or any casting details yet, but the live format hints at a modern, interactive twist.

Star-Studded Original Films on the Way
Netflix also announced a major new project called Here Comes the Flood, a high-stakes heist thriller starring Denzel Washington and Robert Pattinson. Another film, Fight for '84, tells the powerful true story of the 1980 plane crash that killed members of the U.S. Olympic Boxing Team. Jamie Foxx will portray the coach tasked with rebuilding the team for the 1984 Olympic Games.

Hit Series Are Returning
If you're a fan of Bridgerton, get ready for more drama and romance—Netflix is bringing it back, along with The Diplomat and The Four Seasons. While no official dates were shared, all three are confirmed to return with new episodes.

AMC Slashes Ticket Prices for the Summer
Starting in July, AMC Theatres is cutting movie ticket prices in half every Wednesday for AMC Stubs members (which is free to join). The deal applies nationwide and even includes premium formats like IMAX and Dolby Cinema (though surcharges may still apply). There’s no set end date, so this could be your new mid-week movie tradition. The move comes as box office numbers surge and theaters aim to keep the momentum going.
