‘Project Runway’ Forever?

Project Runway forever?

It seems like just moments ago that Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn jumped the Project Runway ship for their new unnamed Amazon fashion series. But Bravo has decided there’s still juice to be squeezed from the formerly very popular reality competition, and is going to re-launch the show (taking it back from its current network Lifetime) with model Karlie Kloss and Runway alum (as well as Season 4 winner) Christian Siriano as host and mentor, respectively. They’ll be joined by returning judge Nina Garcia, designer Brandon Maxwell and former Teen Vogue editor-in-chief Elaine Welteroth. We will love it if this all goes well and the original magic can be rekindled with fresh blood, because we were big fans back in those early Siriano days. But if the recent non-starting American Idol reboot is any indication of audience demand, there may be cause for concern about who asked for this.

Queer superheroes everywhere

Doom Patrol has its last major cast member in place. Matt Bomer has been signed to play Negative Man, opposite Brendan Fraser’s Robotman, in the upcoming DC Comics live-action drama from Greg Berlanti about a group of X-Men-esque misfit superheroes. But in case you think this is some copycat action, understand that Doom Patrol has been around for more than 50 years, taking on oddball villains and going on bizarre adventures in comic book form. Once the show goes into full production, the final product will be part of the DC Universe digital platform. Meanwhile, coming to movie theaters is Academy Award nominee Rosie Perez as lesbian character Renee Montoya opposite Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn in Birds of Prey. Perez’s character is a detective who trades in her badge for a costumed identity as The Question and will be joined on screen by Jurnee Smollett-Bell as Black Canary, and Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Huntress. Have you guessed that this one is about an all-female world of heroes and villains? Well, it is, and it’s what happens when enough people buy tickets to Wonder Woman and money begins to talk. Look for it to land in theaters in early 2020.
