Discovery’s Shark Week, the granddaddy of all summertime shark stunts, is back for its 36th installment, with actor-wrestler John Cena hosting. Another notable personality involved: Shark conservationist Paul de Gelder (above), who has brought his expertise to previous specials, returns in five new programs. (Credit: Discovery) One of those is Great White Serial Killer, in which de Gelder helps locals in a Mexican fishing village identify the great white shark behind three attacks in three years — two of them fatal. De Gelder himself survived a horrific attack when a bull shark grabbed him from below. “It removed my hamstring and my right hand in the same bite,” de Gelder tells us, “and I was forced to swim back to my safety boat with one hand and one functioning leg through a pool of my own blood.” If anyone would be justified in fearing sharks, it’s de Gelder. But the opposite is true.

The recent “Shark Week” tradition of having a DC Universe superhero host the beloved Discovery Channel event continues this year when “Peacemaker’s” John Cena kicks off the festivities this Sunday. Cena’s gig as emcee comes after “Aquaman” Jason Momoa’s turn last year, and “Black Adam” star Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s two-year stint before that. The difference between Cena and his predecessors was his lack of shark education.
“One of the interesting things about John is that, and he admitted this from the beginning, he really didn’t know a lot about sharks,” U.S. networks chief marketing officer Karen Bronzo told Variety of Cena, who is also tied to the Wbd family as host of TBS’ “Wipeout.” And part of the mission of ‘Shark Week’ is to celebrate these amazing creatures and educate people about these creatures.

My colleague Emily Longeretta had a Variety scoop recently that was such a perfect sign of the times. As she reported, FX’s Emmy-winning series “The Bear” — about to premiere its third season at the end of June — finally had its premiere on FX at the start of the month, via a four-night marathon of Season 1 episodes.
“Hit FX Series to Finally Premiere on FX,” we joked should be the headline. If you’re not in the industry — or even if you are, but don’t pay attention to the branding stuff that us Reporters Who Cover The Entertainment Business are obsessed over — you might be scratching your head.
Hasn’t “The Bear” always been on FX? Well, yes and no. In recent years, the lion’s share of new FX series haven’t actually made it to the FX linear channel. It’s all on Hulu, where all FX-branded series now live.

Sean Stone, a producer who worked on action films starring Bruce Willis and John Travolta, has died. He was 31.
Stone died Tuesday at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Brunswick, New Jersey, his family told The Hollywood Reporter. He was diagnosed with metastatic neuroendocrine cancer of the colon in July.
Stone grew up in New Jersey and graduated from the University of Arizona before moving to Los Angles in 2017 to pursue his dream of producing movies. He began his career that year at CAA, where he worked under Dave Bugliari and then Jack Whigham, before moving to Emmett/Furla as an assistant in 2020 and eventually freelancing as an executive producer on movie projects.
He was a creative executive on multiple features released in 2022, including Hot Seat, a action thriller starring Entourage actor Kevin Dillon and Mel Gibson; Wrong Place, starring Willis and Twilight actor Ashley Greene; and Wire Room,...

Discovery Channel’s hit franchises, like “Gold Rush” and “Deadliest Catch,” featured plenty of blood and sweat. But where were the tears? That’s something Howard Lee immediately began asking, upon taking control of the network at the end of 2022.
After Lee was handed the keys to Discovery that December, “I spent my entire Christmas vacation devouring, scrutinizing, every single Discovery Channel show and familiarizing myself with it, like a fanboy. And looking at, of course, the ratings for each one and the budgets.”
As head of TLC, Lee helped grow the network to new heights thanks to blockbuster franchises like “90 Day Fiancé,” where emotion was his bread and butter. But after his crash course in Discovery fare, Lee felt that the flagship network could do a better job of creating programming that its audience found viscerally enthralling.

Discovery Channel has landed the perfect host this year for “Shark Week,” none other than a huge fan of all ocean creatures — Aquaman.
Jason Momoa, who in real life dreamed of a career as a marine biologist before Hollywood anointed him an ocean god, is going back to his roots to celebrate all things shark.
“My heart is in the ocean,” Momoa told The Associated Press from Tahiti, moments before taking a trip to swim with some of the apex predators. “Doing ‘Shark Week’ is a no brainer.”

"The water's warm - so everything's marching north." HBO Docs has revealed an official trailer for After the Bite, a fascinating shark doc from filmmaker Ivy Meeropol. This is debuting during "Shark Week" this summer streaming on Max and on HBO to watch on TV. Local residents and vacationers flock to Cape Cod every summer begin to grapple with this alarming new reality of regular sharks while following the science to investigate. The title refers to fatal attack on a person in 2018 int he town of Wellfleet, Ma. After the Bite is a deep dive into how one coastal community is renegotiating their relationship with our rapidly changing environment. The changes are numerous: warmer waters, species interacting where they never had before, along with the rapidly increasing numbers of the shark's favorite prey, the North Atlantic gray seal, whose population has rebounded since seals were protected under the Marine Mammal Protection Act.

No relation to the anime of the same name or the Don Bluth film Titan A.E. for that matter, this Attack on Titan is – you guessed it – another creatively titled film from The Asylum. This one justifies its title by having a rebel faction on Saturn’s moon Titan object to Earth’s deal with the government to harvest water crystals. Since they launch an attack on us, the film, whose original title, Alien Space Battle, still appears in the end credits would be more accurately called Attack from Titan. But that just doesn’t sound the same.

Exclusive: Veteran Shark Week host Nigel Marven has signed a deal with MagellanTV. The former BBC and ITV natural history presenter will produce and star in a documentary about volcanic activity in Central America, with three of his other docu-series comprising a key part of the global documentary streamer’s first Wild Week programming stunt.

Being able to boast that a franchise has lasted over two decades is impressive, but considering the world of "Jackass" requires putting the body, mind, arrest record, and stomach on the line at every turn, it's a damn miracle that everyone's favorite comedy stuntmen are still up to their usual shenanigans after all these years. The MTV series debuted in 2000 for three seasons but turned into an entertainment franchise including spin-offs "Wildboyz," "Viva La Bam," "Homewrecker," "Bam's Unholy Union," "Dr. Steve-o," "Bam's World Domination," "Bam's Bad Ass Game Show," a video game, TV specials (including Shark Week) five feature films, and the...

Because of course, you’ll want to watch a movie titled ‘Shark Island’, especially since a less than stellar shark movie is sometimes the best thing for the soul when a person needs to laugh. Figuring out the plot isn’t too hard since it’s about a group of individuals that go to an island, are doing a photoshoot, yadda, yadda, yadda, something about the island being the origin point of all sharks, and so on and so forth. All people really need to know about shark movies these days is that there’s a shark, people are going to do something stupid,

Discovery’s “Shark Week,” which begins today and runs through Sunday, Aug. 16, is, indeed, a learning experience — at least for those who weren’t aware that sharks have two penises. You’re welcome for that free bit of cocktail party banter.
This year’s “Shark Week” will consist of more than 20 hours of shark programming throughout the week. It will also celebrate the 20th anniversary of “Air Jaws.”
“Shark Week 2020” will take viewers to New Zealand, Australia and South Africa “to see how the global lockdown and reduced amount of human activity on the seas has given sharks the opportunity to reclaim the oceans,” Discovery said in its press release.

Back in June, when Jaws celebrated its 45th anniversary, film lovers everywhere waxed poetic about the influence of this incredible film. It’s true that Jaws has loomed large in our culture and continues to cut a powerful figure in film history. Jaws was the film that changed how movies are marketed. It inspired countless filmmakers, introduced new ways of shooting a film, and gave rise to sharks as a horror genre in and of themselves. The icon status of Jaws simply cannot be overstated.
All things considered, in its 45 years Jaws has occupied a place of cultural significance beyond how it functions as cinema. When considering Jaws in 2020, it’s apparent that the film has persisted as a highly political piece, in addition to being a cinematic revolutionary.

Summer is the right time to appreciate sharks. Pop culture has always intrinsically understood that, whether it was Steven Spielberg creating the summer blockbuster with Jaws in 1975 or Discovery Channel creating the couch potato with Shark Week in 1988.
The summer of 2020, however, stands to be the best time for these dead-eyed elasmobranch fish monsters in a long time. The coronavirus pandemic has beaches sparsely populated and sharks’ reign as king of the seas more unquestioned than ever. National Geographic is going to do its part to celebrate the summer of the shark with a five-week supersized Sharkfest of shark-related programming.
Nat Geo’s Sharkfest kicks off on Sunday, July 12 on National Geographic. Then National Geographic and its animal-imprint Nat Geo Wild will continue to air shark content from the networks’ existing library along with new specials several nights a week until concluding on Sunday, August 2.
Last year’s Sharkfest amounted to three weeks of programming.

Nat Geo’s Sharkfest kicks off on Sunday, July 12 on National Geographic. Then National Geographic and its animal-imprint Nat Geo Wild will continue to air shark content from the networks’ existing library along with new specials several nights a week until concluding on Sunday, August 2.
Last year’s Sharkfest amounted to three weeks of programming.

HBO Max has acquired the U.S. rights to “On the Record,” Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering’s documentary that follows the accusers of music mogul Russell Simmons following its premiere at the Sundance Film Festival.
“On the Record” has been a hot button film since Oprah Winfrey revealed earlier this month that she’d step away from the project as an executive producer, which additionally led to Apple TV+ to drop it from its slate.
The documentary primarily follows Drew Dixon at the beginning of the #MeToo movement as she grapples with the decision to come forward about her accusations about Simmons. Dixon says she was raped by Simmons in his apartment in 1995 and quit the company shortly after. Simmons has denied all accusations of non-consensual sex.

Following a thunderstorm of Oprah Winfrey-related controversy and a successful Sundance Film Festival premiere, “On the Record” has secured domestic distribution at HBO Max.
A harrowing look at the struggle of women of color in the #MeToo movement, specifically those accusing hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons of rape and sexual assault, the film was meant to roll out via Winfrey’s Apple TV Plus overall deal. Her Jan. 10 withdrawal from the project forced the film to fly solo in Park City, where it went in search of a buyer.
UTA Independent Film Group brokered the deal on behalf of filmmakers Amy Ziering and Kirby Dick. This marks HBO Max’s first Sundance acquisition ever (following a splashy deal for Hugh Jackman’s “Bad Education” out of Toronto last September).

HBO Max has snapped up U.S. rights to Impact Partners’ and Jane Doe Films’ documentary On the Record, about the women who’ve accused music mogul Russell Simmons of rape. The movie stirred up a lot of controversy heading into its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival, with Oprah Winfrey removing herself from as executive producer, and thus pulling On the Record‘s distribution from Apple TV+.
Last year, HBO had another controversial Sundance documentary Leaving Neverland. However, On the Record will only air on streaming service HBO Max, not the linear pay cable network. Currently to be determined is whether On the Record gets a theatrical release. While many distributors such as Focus Features, Roadside Attractions, Amazon, CNN Films, IFC, Showtime and Netflix attended the Sundance premiere of the doc produced and directed by Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering, I heard most of them passed on making a bid.

Were you one of the millions who tuned into the first episode of season 3 of “The Masked Singer” after the Super Bowl on Sunday? The show concluded with the unmasking of one of the six celebrities who had performed (the Robot turned out to be Grammy-winning singer Lil Wayne). While we still don’t know for sure the identities of the other five famous faces inside those elaborate animal costumes, we’ve been doing some digging. Keep reading for “The Masked Singer” spoilers on the name of the White Tiger.

Forget those wild guesses from the regular panellists of John Cena and Jason Mamoa. We think that guest judge Jamie Foxx nailed it when he named NFL star Rob Gronkowski as the White Tiger. Not so sure? Well consider how well this guess fits in with the clues given.

Sling TV, Dish Network’s internet TV service, has added nine Discovery networks on its national and Spanish-language services, along with several thousand VOD titles.
At the same time, Sling TV customers currently remain without access to Univision or HBO channels, amid ongoing contract disputes between Dish and the programmers. As of the end of September, Dish reported a total of 2.37 million Sling TV subscribers but the lack of Univision and HBO threatens to impede its near-term growth.
With the launch of Discovery networks on Sling TV, pricing remains unchanged. The over-the-top service offers two plans — the single-stream Sling Orange, which includes Disney and ESPN networks; and the multistream Sling Blue, which includes NBC and Fox networks — priced at $25 per month each, or $40 per month when purchased together.
Starting Wednesday (Nov. 28), Sling Blue now includes Discovery Channel, Investigation Discovery (ID) and TLC; the Sling Orange package includes ID and MotorTrend...

“I’m addicted to sharks,” says cinematographer Andy B. Casagrande IV, who has been shooting for Discovery’s Shark Week for 13 years.
As obsessions go, it may be an unusual one, but it has served Casagrande well over the past two decades as he’s worked on countless TV and film documentaries on the dangerous creatures. “I learn more each time I go under, and I want to inspire others to learn, ” he says. But it’s more than just about the big fish; it’s also about camera technology for Casagrande, who says he loves “being in the field at the cutting edge of cinema science.”
Viewers eagerly await the arrival of each season of Shark Week, cable’s longest-running regular block of programming, which celebrates its 30th year.

A great white shark sinking its teeth into a Tyrannosaurus rex? It can only be the bonkers full trailer for The Last Sharknado: It’s About Time, the sixth and final installment in Syfy’s genre oddity that became an instant meme overnight.
That’s because to cap off its fifth annual “Shark Week” event, the network unleashed The Last Sharknado on Sunday evening, and it was every bit as ridiculous as we’ve come to expect from the film series in which great white sharks rain down from the skies… literally.
But this time, there’s a twist. As the title suggests, The Last Sharknado plays fast and loose with time, resulting in a scenario where an airborne great white is able to chomp on a T-rex. And that’s not even the strangest part of Syfy’s final sizzle reel, as we also see cameos galore and multiple Tara Reids which,...

Usually Christmas is considered the “most wonderful time of the year” but don’t tell that to Discovery Channel.
The cable network begins the 30th edition of its annual “Shark Week” on Sunday, and according to data provided to TheWrap from Standard Media Index, those Great Whites have generated more than $36 million in advertising revenue over the past two years.
Per Smi, last year’s Shark Week brought in $20.2 million in advertising revenue, a jump of 59 percent over Discovery’s average weekly revenue in 2017 of $12.7 million. In 2016, Shark Week earned $16.6 million in revenue, a more modest jump of 37 percent from the 12.1 million in ad revenue that Discovery earned on a weekly basis.

New York’s Funniest comedy competition winner Julian McCullough will host Discovery’s Shark After Dark, the late-night aftershow for the network’s iconic Shark Week, which is celebrating its 30th anniversary.
This year, Shark After Dark is returning to its original live format, at 11 Pm Et/Pt.
And, making his triumphant late-night return, America’s favorite cartilaginous sidekick Bob the Shark. The network revealed that Bob spent his two years away getting five rows of teeth whitened, a fin lift and gill augmentation. So, looking good.
Shark After Dark previously was live when hosted by Josh Wolf, in 2013-14. Eli Roth hosted from 2015-17, when the show was taped.
Over five nights, McCullough, whose Comedy Central special Maybe I’m a Man aired earlier this year, will chat up shark fans, shark experts and celebrity guests; Charlize Theron, Kevin Hart, Chelsea Handler, Mark Cuban and Tony Hale are among...
