'Happy Face' Brings In The Kids And A Recurring David Harewood

  The upcoming Paramount+ drama series Happy Face has found all of its series regulars and jonesed for its recurring talk show host and Melissa’s boss. The final series regulars found are  Khiyla Aynne   and Benjamin Mackey, while Supergirl alum David Harewood is racking in the ratings. As one could surmise, Aynne and Mackey play Melissa (played by Annaleigh Ashford )’s kids with husband Ben, played by James Wolk . Specifically, Aynne  plays Hazel, their  secure and happy  15-year-old daughter who initially believes that her mother is off on a simple business trip. However,  she soon starts suspecting that something dire is going on, beginning to investigate and uncover the shocking circumstances of her mother’s past.  Mackey plays  lively   9-year-old Max, who takes his stable upbringing for granted and doesn’t grow his older sister’s suspicions regarding mom’s sudden absence. He instead steadfastly believes she’s producing some sort of on-location segment for  The Dr. Greg Show . A

Burnham Has Sax-y Thoughts In First 'Star Trek: Discovery' Final Season Clip

 


Star Trek: Discovery is headed toward its fifth and final season next year, and fans at San Diego Comic-Con got to see the first clip, which was later posted to Paramount+'s YouTube channel.

The clip sees Captain Michael Burnham, played by Sonequa Martin Green pursue two mercenary scavengers: Moll, played by The Expanse‘s Eve Harlow, and L’ak, played by The Night Agent's Elias Toufexis by activating her suit’s magnetization onto their starship in the midst of warp speed travel. The duo had just triggered an explosion, sending Burnham hurtling into space. She’s joined by another Starfleet captain, Rayner (Callum Keith Rennie), as the U.S.S. Discovery crew struggles to lock onto her in the warp bubble. This includes Saru, played by Doug Jones and the present Doctor Kovich, played by director David Cronenberg.

The fact that Moll and L'ak are in possession of an artifact Burnham is seeking, they are most certainly the "others" on the hunt to find "an ancient power whose very existence has been deliberately hidden for centuries", as the season's logline tells. "Dangerous foes who are desperate to claim the prize for themselves and will stop at nothing to get it". There are likely to be more met along the way. The scene can be watched below.

Star Trek: Discovery's final season also sees the returning crew consisting of Anthony Rapp as Paul Stamets, Mary Wiseman as Sylvia Tilly, Wilson Cruz as Dr. Hugh Culber, David Ajala as Cleveland “Book” Booker, and Blu del Barrio as Adira. It was part of the initial class of original programming when the service launched as CBS All Access. It subsequently led the renaissance of Star Trek on television, or at least the stage of television evolution in 2017. The series and streamer released a look ahead as well. With Lower Decks starting in September, and the abandonment of Prodigy meaning the "Winter 2023" run was aborted, it's possible that the most movement Discovery will do is move closer inside the 2024 side of the winter window Prodigy was meant to occupy.
