"Becoming Karl Lagerfeld" - Coming June 7th on Disney+
Fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld comes to life in the Disney+ series, "Becoming Karl Lagerfeld," starting June 7th. The German actor Daniel Bruhl (45) brings the French icon to life in this captivating series. Set in 1972, the show follows Lagerfeld's journey to stay successful in Paris' glamorous world of high fashion. His friend and rival Yves Saint Laurent (Arnaud Valois, 40) and a passionate love affair with the mercurial Jacques de Bascher (Théodore Pellerin, 26) fill this period.
"Becoming Karl Lagerfeld" is a must-watch for every fashion aficionado, boasting painstaking attention to detail in the 70s Parisian haute couture setting and extravagant parties. Thanks to a massive production effort, over 3,000 costumes were designed for the fashion series. Renowned figures like Andy Warhol (Paul Spera, 37), Paloma Picasso (Jeanne Damas, 32), and Marlene Dietrich (Sunnyi Melles, 65) also appear in this six-part series.
"The Boys" Season 4 - Coming June 13th on Prime Video
Buckle up for the eagerly awaited fourth season of "The Boys," premiering June 13th on Amazon Prime Video. Continuing from the thrilling cliffhanger of the spin-off "Generation V," the Supes, or superheroes, including Homelander (Antony Starr, 48) and his son Ryan (Cameron Crovetti, 16) find themselves vulnerable to a virus that can kill them.
Billy Butcher (Karl Urban, 51) and the Boys have a plan. They utilize this vulnerability to their advantage, as hinted in the Season 4 trailer. Meanwhile, politician Victoria Neuman (Claudia Doumit, 32) edges closer to the Oval Office, while Homelander urges the other superheroes to embody the "angry gods" - a decision guaranteed to cause mayhem.
The critically acclaimed, darkly comedic, and smart "The Boys" adaptation of the comic book series is one of Amazon's most successful streaming programs. Joining the cast in Season 4 are Susan Heyward ("Orange Is the New Black," 41), Valorie Curry ("The Tick," 38), and Jeffrey Dean Morgan ("The Walking Dead," 58). Renewed for Season 5, this irreverent superhero satire shows no signs of stopping.
Unfortunately, "Bridgerton" enthusiasts worldwide have been dealt a blow. Netflix has divided the third season of the romantic historical show into two parts. The last four episodes of Season 3 will become available on the streaming platform from June 13th.
Already in interviews, members of the cast have indicated that the search for Lady Whistledown will heat up in the closing chapters. We'll also learn if Penelope Featherington (Nicola Coughlan, 37) and Colin Bridgerton (Luke Newton, 31) tie the knot.
Viewers can look forward to Season 4 of the successful Netflix series, which continues.
