hot off the press!

We are excited to announce that Thailey Roberge ( @thaileyroberge) is a season regular on upcoming series ‘The Audacity.’
From @deadline:
AMC Networks has begun production in Vancouver, Canada on its upcoming Silicon Valley drama The Audacity (new title) from Jonathan Glatzer. Thailey Roberge (Reginald the Vampire) and Ava Marie Telek(Happy Face) have joined as series regulars to round out the ensemble cast, headlined by Billy Magnussen, and Fresh Off The Boat alum Randall Park has been tapped for a key guest starring role.
Set inside the bubble of Silicon Valley, The Audacity takes on the warped dreams, outsized egos, and ethical lapses of the self-styled inventors of the future. In a world of jaded billionaires, psychiatrist-gurus, bio-hacked tech bros, AI labs and disillusioned teens being optimized in elite private schools, an audacious data-mining CEO (Magnussen) strives to turn insight and influence into profit and power. A darkly comedic drama that confronts reality, privacy and the delusions fueling our ever-changing reality.
The eight-episode drama comes from executive producer, writer and showrunner Glatzer (Succession, Bad Sisters, Better Call Saul) and executive producer Gina Mingacci (Killing Eve). Lucy Forbes (This Is Going To Hurt, Eric) will direct the pilot and second episode. The series is produced by AMC Studios.
The Audacity will premiere in 2026, exclusively on AMC and AMC+.

We are happy to announce that avid reader and talented performer Michelle Morgan ( @michellemorgan_) is a panellist on CBC’s ‘Canada Reads 2025.’
Canada Reads 2025 will take place March 17-20. This year, the great Canadian book debate is looking for one book to change the narrative. Michelle will be championing novel ‘Etta and Otto and Russell and James’ by Emma Hooper.
From Michelle: “Hooper’s writing is so poignant and it captures the wonder and the hardships of Depression-era Saskatchewan,” said Morgan in her 30-second pitch on CBC Radio’s Commotion. “And her writing is sparing, and it’s bare-boned and it leaves readers the space to fill in the gaps with our own experiences of love and loss and remembering and forgetting.”
You can also catch Michele on beloved series ‘Heartland’ - @official_heartlandoncbc
Canada Reads will be hosted by Ali Hassan and will be broadcast on YouTube, CBC Gem, CBC Radio One, CBC TV, CBC Listen and on CBC Books.
