GOOSEBUMPS (Disney+) - Zack Morris and Isa Briones have both joined the cast of the reboot series.

SHOP, THE: UNINTERRUPTED (YouTube) - The series has nixed an upcoming episode featuring Kanye West. "Yesterday we taped an episode of The Shop with Kanye West. Kanye was booked weeks ago and, after talking to Kanye directly the day before we taped, I believed he was capable of a respectful discussion and he was ready to address all his recent comments. Unfortunately, he used The Shop to reiterate more hate speech and extremely dangerous stereotypes," the SpringHill Company said in a statement to Andscape. (Deadline.com)
ST. DONATUS (Peacock, New!) - Writers Eric Charmelo and Nicole Snyder and director Richard Shepard are set to re-team for a new drama to the streamer about "a small town in Iowa with a dark secret.

Sean Hayes and Todd Milliner of Hazy Mills Productions will also executive produce for Universal Television. (Deadline.com)

Originally sold to Quibi in 2019, the project "tells the story of a team of Black superheroes battling against each other's self-indulgences in order to combat the villains of today's cultural conflicts and protect society." Leann Bowen is co-writing the script, taking over from Jameel Saleem. Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson and Jermaine Johnson also executive produce for G-Unit Film & Television, 3 Arts Entertainment and Lionsgate Television. (Deadline.com)
