Stars are sharing tributes to Joel Schumacher, who passed away this week.

Jim Carrey, Kiefer Sutherland, Emmy Rossum, Corey Feldman and many others shared their memories on social media of the late director, who was behind such films as St. Elmo’s Fire, The Lost Boys and Batman Forever.

Film fan Kevin Smith also posted a tribute to Joel, writing that he “met him on the set of the ill-fated Batman & Robin and he couldn’t have been nicer or more hospitable (and the man looooved to gossip).”

“The Incredible Shrinking Woman was an early cable TV classic for me and I loved St Elmo’s Fire, The Client and Flawless,” Kevin added.

Jim shared in his own tribute, “Joel Schumacher has passed away. He saw deeper things in me than most and he lived a wonderfully creative and heroic life. I am grateful to have had him as a friend.”

Quibi has released the first teaser trailer for the upcoming series The Fugitive, which stars Kiefer Sutherland and Boyd Holbrook.

The series will be one of the first new shows from the upcoming streaming service, which launches in April 2020. The streamer will be the home of movie-quality shows designed to be watching on your phone. New episodes will launch every day and each one will be 10 minutes or less.

Here’s the synopsis for The Fugitive: “When a bomb rips through the Los Angeles subway train he’s riding on, blue-collar Mike Ferro (Holbrook) just wants to make sure his wife, Allison, and 10-year-old daughter, Pearl, are safe. But the faulty evidence on the ground and “tweet-now, confirm-later” journalism paint a nightmarish picture: it looks to all the world that Mike was responsible for the heinous act. Wrongfully—and very publicly—accused, Mike must prove his innocence by uncovering the real perpetrator, before the legendary cop (Sutherland) heading the investigation can apprehend him. With the city in a state of panic and misinformation traveling at the speed of social media, Mike’s life and family hang in the balance as he becomes… The Fugitive.”

Kiefer Sutherland is recovering from a fall that left him “seriously injured.”

The 52-year-old actor was promoting his new album Reckless & Me on a European tour when he slipped on the stairs of his tour bus.

“Sadly I slipped on the stairs of the bus whilst traveling to Denmark and seriously injured a rib, making it difficult to breathe and impossible to sing,” Kiefer wrote on his Instagram.

The injury caused him to cancel the final three performances of the tour, which he says he plans to make up.

He continued, “I am so sorry for any inconvenience that I have caused to the fans who bought tickets. I will do everything I can to make it up to you. Thank you for your understanding. Sincerely, Kiefer.”

We hope that Kiefer has a quick recovery!

Fans of Designated Survivor should not give up on the show as there is a report that Netflix could be reviving the series following its cancellation by ABC!

Netflix is the international streaming home for Designated Survivor and THR reports that the service is in early talks to bring back the show for a third season.

Hulu has first rights to the show in the U.S. so a deal would have to be worked out with that streaming service.

If the show gets a third season, a new showrunner would be introduced, marking the show’s fifth person in the job.
