ABC Orders Pilot For Lee Daniels' 'The Wonder Years' Reboot

ABC is moving forward with its’ Wonder Years reboot.

The network announced today that the Lee Daniels produced series has given a formal pilot order to start shooting, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The new version of the popular series will focus on how a Black middle-class family in Montgomery, Alabama, in the turbulent late 1960s made sure it was “the wonder years” for them, too.

The original series, which aired from 1988 to 1993, centered on a white middle-class family.

The show made its young stars, Fred Savage and Danica McKellar, into household names.

Fred will be part of the new series as an executive producer and will direct the pilot, too.

Plans for the reboot were announced in the summer of 2020.

Anne Hathaway Explains Why She Quit Drinking for the Next 18 Years

Anne Hathaway is opening up about her decision to quit drinking, at least for the next 18 years.

The 36-year-old Serenity actress told Ellen DeGeneres that she decided to stop drinking after going to a business meeting while hungover.

“I quit drinking back in October, for 18 years. I’m going to stop drinking while my son is in my house just because I don’t totally love the way I do it and he’s getting to an age where he really does need me all the time in the morning,” Anne said. “I did one school run one day where I dropped him off at school, I wasn’t driving, but I was hungover and that was enough for me. I didn’t love that one.”

Anne and husband Adam Shulman welcomed their son Jonathan back in April 2016.

During her interview on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Anne played a prank on the audience and also played a game with actor Fred Savage.

FYI: Anne is wearing BOSS and a Dean Davidson ring.

Deadpool 2 is coming back to theaters as Once Upon a Deadpool in a rebrand that will take away its “R” rating and allow “PG-13″ audiences to see the film.

On December 12, Ryan Reynolds‘ hit film will be returning to theaters in an edited PG-13 version, which now includes actor Fred Savage. Fred filmed some new scenes for the re-release, which pays homage to his 1987 movie The Princess Bride.

“Fox has been asking for a PG-13 basically since the start in 2006,” Ryan told Deadline. “I’ve said no since 2006. Now, this one time, I said ‘Yes’ on two conditions. First, a portion of the proceeds had to go to charity. Second, I wanted to kidnap Fred Savage. The second condition took some explaining…”
