The Shivering Truth is a delicately crafted, darkly surreal anthology comedy. Each episode is a miniature propulsive omnibus cluster bomb of painfully riotous daymares all dripping with the orange goo of dream logic. A series of loosely linked emotional parables about stories within tales that crawled out of the deepest caverns of your unconscious mind and became lovingly animated in breath-slapping stop motion — in other words, it is the TRUTH (squared).
This season features the voices of Kate Berlant, Mike Birbiglia, Wyatt Cenac, Julia Davis, Chris Elliott, Will Forte, Josh Gad, Miranda July, Jason Mantzoukas, Kyle Mooney, Griffin Newman, Ego Nwodim, Alia Shawkat, and Tierra Whack, along with show creator and writer, Vernon Chatman.

Adam Driver To Lead Jeff Nichols’ Yankee Comandante
Adam Driver to lead Jeff Nichols’ Yankee Comandante
Though still waiting on word on when he can return to production on Ridley Scott’s The Last Duel, Adam Driver (Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker) has found his next project in the form of Jeff Nichols (Loving)’ upcoming adaptation of Yankee Comandante, according to Variety.
RELATED: The Last Duel Set Photos Reveal Matt Damon, Ben Affleck & Adam Driver
Based on David Grann’s New Yorker article, the story follows two people who rose to the rank of comandante during the Cuban Revolution, one being legendary guerrilla leader Che Guevara while the other was William Alexander Morgan, an Ohio citizen who led a band of rebels that drove the Cuban army from key positions in the central mountains and helped pave the way for Fidel Castro’s forces to secure their victory, only to later turn against Castro after learning of his Communist ideals.
An adaptation of the article and of Michael Sallah & Mitch Weiss’ novel “The Yankee Comandante: The Untold Story of Courage, Passion and One American’s Fight to Liberate Cuba” was previously underway in 2012 with George Clooney (Catch-22) seeking out the rights to both, but that project seemingly lingered in development hell until now.
The film marks a reunion between Nichols and Driver following their work on the 2016 sci-fi drama Midnight Special, in which Driver starred alongside the writer/director’s frequent collaborator Michael Shannon (The Quarry). The 41-year-old writer/director is set to pen the script and direct, with sources reporting that production is expected to begin in 2021.

Patty Jenkins Gives an Update on Wonder Woman 3 and the Amazons Spinoff
Patty Jenkins Gives an Update on Wonder Woman 3 and the Amazons Spinoff
Wonder Woman 1984 is hopefully only four months away, but director Patty Jenkins is already getting questions about Diana’s third cinematic outing. Jenkins previously revealed that Wonder Woman 3’s story, along with that of a potential Amazons spinoff, have already been mapped out. However, it’s going to be a while before she starts building those ideas into anything concrete. While speaking with Total Film (via GamesRadar), Jenkins confirmed that she’ll be taking a break from the franchise after the sequel arrives this summer.
“I’m not going to nail down a fresh thought about it until this movie comes out, because I kind of want to give myself a palette cleanser, and be fresh of mind,” said Jenkins. “But yeah, there’s an arc that I have in mind for the first movie, and then the second movie, and then the Amazon movie, and then the third movie.”
RELATED: Patty Jenkins Explains Why Wonder Woman 1984 Has Two Villains
Jenkins’ desire to briefly step away from the DC Universe after she’s done promoting WW84 isn’t without precedent. After the original film bowed in 2017, Jenkins turned her attention to the TNT miniseries I Am the Night. Jenkins also confirmed that she has no plans to sit in the director’s chair for the Amazons spinoff.
“I’m not going to direct it, hopefully,” added Jenkins. “I’m going to try really hard not to. It’s not going to be easy. But [WW84 co-writer and former DC Entertainment President and Chief Creative Officer] Geoff Johns and I came up with the story, and we sold the pitch, and we’re going to get it going. I’ll produce it, for sure.”
Wonder Woman 1984 will hit theaters on August 14.
