Hollywood News Banter

By Kim Masters • Jun 24, 2016 • 1 min read

Matt Belloni, executive editor of The Hollywood Reporter joins Kim Masters to discuss top entertainment news stories of the week.

Bill Simmons debuted his new HBO show Any Given Wednesday, and already produced a viral clip with a troubling-looking Ben Affleck releasing an F-bomb filled rant about Deflategate.
Meanwhile, Warner Bros. is heavily invested in Affleck at the moment. He is starring in and producing the upcoming Justice League movies. In a rare move, director Zack Snyder recently hosted a bunch of journalists on the set of Justice League in London. This is widely seen as an apology tour after Batman v Superman disappointed.
In more HBO news, the network has canceled a second season of Vinyl, even though they had previously announced they would renew it. The cancellation comes after a changing of the guard at HBO and frees up money to use on new shows for a network in need of a drama hit.
