Schwarzenegger is executive producing alongside David Ellison, Dana Goldberg and Bill Bost for Skydance.

Amazon’s “Jack Reacher” has found its Jack Reacher in “Titans” star Alan Ritchson.
And since you’re probably wondering, Ritchson — who plays Hawk/Hank Hall on DC Universe’s “Titans” — is listed at 6 feet 4 inches tall and 235 pounds, considerately larger than Tom Cruise’s 5 feet 7 inches frame that drew the ire from fans of Lee Child’s books (and Child himself). Cruise played the character in a pair of movies, “Jack Reacher” and “Jack Reacher: Never Go Back.”
When Child first said that he was looking to reboot “Jack Reacher” as a TV series with a new lead to replace Cruise, he argued the “Mission Impossible” star “didn’t have that physicality” of the character. In his books, Child frequently describes Reacher as being 6 feet 5 inches tall, with hands “the size of dinner plates” — they have also been described as the size of “a supermarket chicken,” or “Thanksgiving turkeys.

Princess Margaret's visit to the White House in 1969 is at the center of the second episode of The Crown's third season. In real life, Princess Margaret and her husband, Lord Snowdon, did visit the Us in 1969 and enjoy a dinner and dancing at the White House at the invitation of President Lyndon B. Johnson. But just how much of their White House visit was exaggerated for dramatic effect on The Crown?
"The coverage presents the dinner as comparatively uneventful, and the official dinner attracted less attention than the cost of the visit itself, especially since Margaret and Armstrong-Jones had reputations as jet-setters who socialized with the elite," royal historian Carolyn Harris said to NBC News. "But that said, Margaret was known for her sense of humor and Johnson was known for occasionally making bawdy comments."
