Not even a writer as fabulous as Carrie Bradshaw could dream up a heroine quite like Sarah Jessica Parker.

As Parker turns 57 on March 25, FOXTEL marks the occasion with a few of her key roles, all available On Demand. AND JUST LIKE THAT… (2021) Carrie could have remained an eternal Peter Pan – a cosmodrinking, Manolo Blahnikwearing pixie who would never grow old – but she ditches the newspaper for a podcast and matures into a…

Fans of Sanditon were overjoyed when it was confirmed that there would be a second season – and indeed a third – following an initial statement to the contrary. The period drama ended with the health resort project going up in flames. With no insurance in place, Sidney (Theo James) rustled up some funds for his older brother, Tom Parker (Kris Marshall), by marrying a wealthy London widow!

What’s most fun about playing Mother in Raised by Wolves? The whole experience is just so amazing. I feel very, very lucky to be in this production as a whole. And then, as a character, of course, it’s crazier than anything I could ever imagine: flying, fighting, all this stunt-y, crazy s*** we’re doing. Who is Mother? She is an android programmed to raise human children on Kepler-22b and with that comes a need to fulfil her mission. It’s been such a joy to dive into the world of Mother and I’m so privileged that I’m the one giving life to this psycho android. Mother doesn’t have her eyes in season two, which is the doorway to a lot of her power and status. Do you think it will affect…

LADY BOSS: THE JACKIE COLLINS STORY Wednesday March 9 at 8.30pm and watch On Demand FOX DOCOS [129] Think of the glamour and excesses of the 1980s and ’90s, and author Jackie Collins is almost certain to be one of the first characters who comes to mind. Larger than life, with her big hair and shoulder pads, and the even bigger salacious stories she told in such bestsellers as Hollywood Wives, Lucky and The World is Full of Married Men, Collins was one of the most famous authors in the world. She produced 32 novels, all of them bestsellers, that sold more than half a billion copies. The younger sister of Dynasty legend Dame Joan Collins, the star had her own devoted following, as much for her no-holds-barred personality and flashy leopard-skin…

To embody Johnson in the sitcom’s first season, Latukefu (The End, Devil’s Playground, watch both On Demand) picked up the ins and outs of American football – the sport Johnson played during his college days at the University of Miami. But in the second instalment, as the future star makes the leap from the football field to the wrestling ring, so too does the Australian actor. “Wrestling, wrestling, wrestling,” the affable Latukefu tells…

A potential follow-up without their involvement had been in development when Lana finally agreed to work on The Matrix Resurrections without her sister, teaming up with writers David Mitchell and Aleksandar Hemon, both of whom had worked with her on the TV series Sense8.
