Go Bananas, Rock Out! 'Better Man' Is Now Streaming

  Imagine bombing so hard that the major trades don’t even pick up your streaming arrival announcement. Paramount+ announced that  Better Man , the biopic that literally made a monkey out of its subject musician Robbie Williams, would be arriving on the service on Tuesday, March 11 in the United States and Canada. At least the advance notice was as good as the studio’s better performers, as it came Monday, basically a day before. As always, international rollout will be announced later on. The streamer’s announcement as posted to its socials goes as such: “A musical spectacle unlike anything you've ever seen. #BetterManMovie takes the stage on #ParamountPlus TOMORROW” Opening on a limited release on December 25, it expanded wider on January 10. Going by the limited release date, it would have taken 76 days to reach Paramount+, making it quite an outlier in Paramount’s 2024 slate. However, it’s only 60 days from January 10, falling in line quite well, as previously covered. Th...

Ashley Tisdale's Stariana Shines In First 'Baby Shark's Big Movie' Clip

 

Paramount+ has released the first clip from the upcoming Baby Shark's Big Show! feature film from Nickelodeon Animation and The Pinkfong Company, aptly titled Baby Shark's Big Movie.

It features *NSYNC alum Lance Bass as the most himself he could be, living up to his name in a literal way while serving as the Carson Daly-emulating host of Tidal Request Live as he debuts the music video of rising pop star's Stariana's newest song, "It's Stariana!". The ego-stroking song was clearly filmed as a music video but edited as a lyric video (probably to accommodate the target audience), and has all the nas you can imagine. Plus it gives famed Candace Flynn Ashley Tisdale another chance to sing in a role before Phineas and Ferb got revived.


The story for Baby Shark's Big Movie is that Baby Shark and his family move to Chomp City, the big city of sharks. Baby Shark must adjust to life without his best friend William nearby, but grapple with Stariana, who with her sharp wit and manipulative ways, wants to dominate all underwater music. And so, he goes on a mission to break her spell to restore harmony to the seas. It stars the Big Show! cast, consisting of Kimiko Glenn as Baby Shark; Luke Youngblood as William, Natasha Rothwell as Mommy Shark, Eric Edelstein as Daddy Shark, Debra Wilson as Grandma Shark and Patrick Warburton as Grandpa Shark.

In addition to Bass and Tisdale, the film's supporting cast includes the returning Cardi B, Offset, and their first child, Kulture as Sharki B, Offshark, and Kulture Sharki, who first appeared in the episode "The Seaweed Sway". They will now be joined by the family's second child, Wave as Wavey Shark, as well as Ego Nwodim as Leah, a lantern shark and Mommy Shark's college best friend, Saturday Night Live co-star Chloe Fineman as Lannie, her hyper and lovable daughter, Aparna Narcherla as Gillie, Stariana's assistant, a boxfish described as "chaotic" and "bumbling", and K-Pop boy band ENHYPHEN as beluga versions of themselves.

Baby Shark's Big Movie premieres on Paramount+ this winter. The "It's Stariana!" video will air during an upcoming Big Show! episode on Monday, September 25 at 11:30 a.m. ET/PT on Nickelodeon.
