LOS ANGELES – Actor Justin Hartley, known for his role in “This Is Us,” is set to present at the Golden Globes tonight. Hartley will take the stage as his new series, “Tracker,” is scheduled to premiere on CBS this spring. The awards show marks the return of the Golden Globes to CBS after nearly 40 years.
Also in attendance is Dan Fogelman, the creator of “This is Us,” as his new series “Only Murders in the Building” has been nominated for the best television series in the musical or comedy category.
Apart from the star-studded event, there are a couple of highly anticipated film releases this week. One of them is the updated version of “Mean Girls,” directed by Tina Fey. The cast features new talent, and co-director Samantha Jayne expressed her commitment to paying homage to the iconic film.
For those in need of a refresher, the movie follows new student Cady Heron (Angourie Rice) as she navigates high school and becomes entangled in the social hierarchy led by the conniving Regina George (Reneé Rapp) and her cohorts Gretchen (Bebe Wood) and Karen (Avantika). As Cady falls for Regina’s ex-boyfriend Aaron Samuels (Christopher Briney), she finds herself caught in Regina’s scheming web. With the help of her outcast friends Janis (Auli’i Cravalho) and Damian (Jaquel Spivey), Cady must learn to stay true to herself and conquer the jungle that is high school.
