Exclusive: Bernard Kira, the manager and producer behind the nine-year-old shingle Bmk-ent, has rebranded the company as Apparent Motion Media, also announcing his signing of International Emmy winner Fernando Rovzar (Hotel Cocaine).

Kira’s move to rebrand comes as he preps Higher Ground, his third film as a producer, and second for an in-house client.

Usually, a writer pitches an idea to a network. If they like it, they'll develop it. If that step goes well, they'll shoot the pilot. If it pleases the network, they order it to series. Some programs take a different path to air. Such is the case with the new I Ship It TV show. It was originally developed as a web short, and then CW Seed, The CW's streaming platform, ordered the first season. The network was impressed enough that they ordered a second season for broadcast. Will their faith in it pay off? Will I Ship It be cancelled or renewed for season three? Stay tuned. *Status update below.

Renée Zellweger has the power to make all of your desires come true in her latest role.

The Oscar-winning actress will lead the cast of Netflix drama, What/If, and the first teaser is very reminiscent of ABC's Revenge.

Given that the series comes from Revenge creator, Mike Kelley, there's a good chance this could be the deliciously soapy drama missing from our lives since that series went off the air. 

The series is set to premiere May 24, but the first teaser doesn't exactly shed much light on what it's about, aside from the fact that Zellweger's character will be pulling the strings.
