Resumen Rápido

La largamente esperada adaptación cinematográfica de la icónica serie de televisión ‘Murder She Wrote’ finalmente ha asegurado un director. Universal Pictures ha elegido a Jason Moore para dirigir el proyecto, que contará con Jamie Lee Curtis en el papel principal.

La designación de Moore marca un paso significativo para la película, llevándola del desarrollo a la preproducción activa. El proyecto tiene como objetivo llevar el querido personaje de Jessica Fletcher a una nueva generación de espectadores de cine, combinando elementos clásicos de misterio con una narración cinematográfica contemporánea.

El Perfil del Director

Jason Moore aporta una trayectoria diversa y comercialmente exitosa a la silla del director. Es más reconocido por lanzar la altamente rentable franquicia ‘Pitch Perfect’, una serie de comedias musicales que se convirtió en un fenómeno cultural.

Además de su trabajo en la serie de comedia a capella, Moore también está adjunto para dirigir la próxima serie precuela de ‘Legally Blonde’. Su experiencia tanto en la creación de franquicias como en la comedia centrada en personajes lo convierte en una elección estratégica para la adaptación de ‘Murder She Wrote’.

La selección de Moore sugiere que el estudio apunta a una película que equilibre el encanto procedimental de la serie original con un ritmo y humor modernos. Su trayectoria indica que la película probablemente se centrará en una fuerte dinámica de personajes junto con el misterio central.

El Equipo Creativo

Moore trabajará con un guion elaborado por Lauren Schuker Blum y Rebecca Angelo. El dúo de escritoras fue anunciado previamente como las guionistas del proyecto, y su colaboración con Moore consolida el liderazgo creativo de la película.

La producción se llevará a cabo en Universal, un estudio con una rica historia de producción de grandes películas. La combinación del poder estelar de Curtis, la visión direccional de Moore y el guion de Blum y Angelo crea un equipo creativo formidable para la esperada adaptación.

  • Jamie Lee Curtis - Estrella

El Legado de la Serie

La serie de televisión original ‘Murder She Wrote’, que se emitió de 1984 a 1996, sigue siendo uno de los dramas de misterio más exitosos en la historia de la televisión. Estuvo protagonizada por la legendaria Angela Lansbury como Jessica Fletcher, una novelista de misterios y detective aficionada que resolvía crímenes en la ficticia ciudad de Cabot Cove, Maine.

Adaptar una propiedad tan querida conlleva grandes expectativas. La película deberá honrar el legado de la icónica actuación de Lansbury mientras establece una identidad distintiva para la interpretación del personaje por parte de Jamie Lee Curtis.

El proyecto representa un importante resurgimiento de una propiedad intelectual clásica, aprovechando la nostalgia con el objetivo de presentar el personaje a audiencias que quizás no estén familiarizadas con la emisión original.

Estado de la Producción

Con el director ahora oficialmente designado, la película de ‘Murder She Wrote’ está posicionada para avanzar en el flujo de desarrollo. Los próximos pasos probablemente involucren finalizar el elenco para los papeles de apoyo y establecer una línea de tiempo de producción.

Universal aún no ha anunciado una fecha de estreno ni ubicaciones de filmación específicas. Sin embargo, la confirmación del director suele ser un precursor del inicio de la fotografía principal, lo que sugiere que se pueden revelar más detalles concretos sobre el calendario de producción en los próximos meses.

La industria observará de cerca cómo el estudio equilibra el presupuesto y la escala de producción de la película, dado el alto perfil de los talentos involucrados y la naturaleza reconocible del material original.

Viendo Hacia Adelante

La confirmación de Jason Moore como director señala que la adaptación de ‘Murder She Wrote’ está pasando de un concepto a una realidad. El proyecto ahora tiene una dirección creativa clara bajo el liderazgo de Moore.

A medida que la película avance a través de la preproducción, el público puede anticipar más anuncios sobre el elenco de apoyo y las fechas de inicio de producción. La colaboración entre Jamie Lee Curtis y Jason Moore promete una nueva perspectiva de un personaje atemporal.

En última instancia, el éxito de la película dependerá de su capacidad para capturar el espíritu de la serie original mientras ofrece un misterio cinematográfico convincente. Las piezas ahora están en su lugar para que esa visión cobre vida.

Football is the biggest thing in America. Chuck Klosterman says that's going to change.

Football is the biggest thing in America. Chuck Klosterman says that's going to change.

Big time football — like this month's college football championship — is the most dominant force in American culture. It won't always be that way, writer Chuck Klosterman argues in his new book. Set Number: X164821 TK1 Are you ready for some football? Trick question: America is always ready for more football. It's an appetite without end. But writer Chuck Klosterman, who just devoted a book to the sport, says football's dominance will ultimately be its undoing. The notion that football is the biggest force in American culture and entertainment is so ingrained and obvious that it almost seems like something not worth mentioning. Chuck Klosterman feels otherwise: The pop culture writer just devoted an entire book to the sport, and its meaning and importance. But Klosterman also argues that football won't always be the main thing — and that its overwhelming size and scale will be the thing that eventually undermines it. I talked to Klosterman about all of that, as well as topics like the impact of video games on the sport, and why he thinks paying college football players is good for now, and really damaging in the long run. You can hear our entire conversation on my Channels podcast. What follows are edited excerpts from our chat. Peter Kafka: What is the point of a book called "Football" in 2026? Chuck Klosterman: I have been obsessed with sports and football my entire life. And probably 20 years ago, I made an unspoken, abstract decision — at some point, I want to do a book that's just about sports. My initial idea was that it was going to be about basketball, but I realized that's crazy: If you're writing about something that's part of the culture, football is the sport. It's the only one. If someone said to you, "Explain the last half of the 20th century through some idea, some metaphor," football is the thing to pick. It might not be the case for the 21st century, but it is for the end of the 20th century. And it is for the world we live in right now. One of the big changes in sports — and definitely in football — recently is the legalization of sports betting. It's omnipresent. You seem ambivalent-to-positive about it, which is not where I thought you'd end up. CHUCK: Do I think that gambling in this legalized way is bad for society? I would say probably, for all of the predictable reasons — particularly because it's on your phone and you've put your [financial information] in, so the money does not seem real. Even if it was just a situation where you had to feed dollar bills into it, everything would change. You're taking something that's addictive for some people and marrying it to your phone, which is also addictive for some people. It seems like an obvious way to get in trouble. CHUCK: But for football, it is good. Because it adds a different context for conversation about it. When I have a conversation with other dads, we'll talk about sports a lot, and then there'll be this other conversation. About gambling. We're still technically talking about football, but this is a whole different thing. It has a different context, a different meaning. It says more about the person. Some could argue that it's a weird argument for gambling being good. But if we look at football as a form of entertainment, a distraction, something to consume, to occupy yourself — I think gambling does make it more interesting. This is the pitch from the entire sports gambling industry — it improves the game, it adds stakes, it makes it more interesting. You seem to agree. Certainly there are people who feel that way. I think a lot of people I know who do a lot of gambling, they have a sort of mixed feelings about it — I think it does bother them that suddenly the game seems meaningless if they're not gambling on it. But for me, as somebody who doesn't really put money into it, I find it a fascinating thing. Like: Indiana was an eight-and-a-half point favorite [in Monday's college football championship game]. They did not cover. But the meaning of eight-and-a-half points in a spread suggests that the gambling markets believe it will be a blowout. That's different than saying, "I think Indiana's gonna win easily." I find it to be much more intriguing than I would've thought. I was definitely against the idea of sports betting. Ideologically, I thought, "This is bad." And like I say, socially it probably is. But for each individual sport … You argue that football's grip on America will eventually collapse. How will that happen? Football is not just the most popular thing, or just too big to fail. It is too big to stop expanding. It has to constantly get bigger. The financial demands of it, the amount of revenue it has to make, can only go up. The NFL only operates from the position of "How can we stretch out further? Can we even swallow up all the other sports? Can we expand into Europe and all of these things?" And right now, that's a successful thing. The more they make, the more people consume, the more people spend on it —most importantly, the TV networks and streamers who need it. And the depth of caring is so deep. If football went away this fall for whatever reason, people will be like, "What am I gonna bet on? What is my life gonna be like? Who am I? What's my identity if I'm not a fan of this team?" You really saw this during COVID. "We're still playing college football. No one's in their classes, but we gotta play these games. We can't not play them." So it's really brittle, right? It's a system that has to keep going. But I think at some point there is going to be a change. Probably in advertising. It's not that advertising is going to disappear. It's just that what it costs to buy an ad during a football game … it's not going be worth the trade off. So let's say it gets to be a point when Fox or Amazon Prime, or whoever's carrying these games, renegotiates their NFL contract and for the first time, the number doesn't go up. Maybe even the number goes down. [That puts the] NFL's in this weird position — they have to take their best offer. Then the players will say, "There's no way we're going to take less money. There's no way we're going to start playing 22 games just because you're not making enough money from CBS. We're going to strike." Or the owners will be like, "We're going to lock the players out" [because they can't afford to pay them] — like what's happened with baseball. If that happened now, it would be this American calamity, where people would freak out. But as people have less and less of a personal relationship to the game when this happens in the future, they'll be like, "Well, that's an entertaining distraction. I can replace it with something else." Something has to be part of your life for it to be so important that you'll do whatever you can to keep it going. Why will fans have less of a relationship to football? The comparison I use is horse racing. In the 1920s, along with boxing and baseball, it was the biggest sport. And in the 1920s, the average person still had a real relationship to the culture of horses. They had a blue-collar job, and horses were still doing some of the labor. Or their dad had a horse farm. They definitely saw horses all the time. The horse was part of the world in which they lived. That is no longer the case. Now, horse racing is just for people who own horses and people who gamble on it. That's really all it is. My fear is that football's gonna put itself in a position where it's too big. Its tentacles reach too far. And people will say, "Well, I guess we'll choose something else." And when it collapses, something that size collapses hard. It kind of implodes on itself. I'm not one of these people [who complain about capitalism]. But I do think some of the problems of capitalism are easiest seen through sports leagues, which are smaller simulations of society. And what's happening with the way money operates in pro and college football, it seems precarious to me. The financial side's changing in an exponential way. And when society shifts, it's the big things that can't. They're not nimble. The small things can. Read the original article on Business Insider

Whole milk is gross. I don't care what RFK says.
Politics

Whole milk is gross. I don't care what RFK says.

Whole milk, yuck. Getty Images; BI The government's latest dietary guidelines suggest people drink whole milk instead of low-fat. This matters a lot for school lunches, where whole milk will get top billing. But for the rest of us: Who actually prefers sludgy, thick whole milk over crisp skim? Yuck! I refuse the long arm of the government's reach into my refrigerator: I'm not drinking whole milk! And I readily accept that food is political, so the fact that the latest dietary guidelines from the US government — which say to drink whole milk instead of skim — are being seen as the latest political battle isn't a surprise. But there's something in the latest whole milk debate that is truly confusing to me. It's that … whole milk isn't very good? And I don't think many of us have felt we couldn't drink it because of government guidelines. We just don't like it! Whole milk as a win for freedom? Secretary of Health and full-fat dairy booster Robert Kennedy Jr. is a polarizing figure, so people are going to interpret this kind of video in a way that fits their worldview: 🥛 pic.twitter.com/QUeSfR7EC8 — Secretary Kennedy (@SecKennedy) January 15, 2026 The government is positioning this change as people being desperate to drink whole milk but feeling they weren't allowed to. That they were forced to settle for skim or 2% milk, and finally, thanks to the Trump administration, are allowed the verboten pleasures again. Here's MY beef: Whole milk is gross. Whole milk is too sludgy, too thick. It always kind of smells like it's on its way to turning sour. I find the white residue it leaves on the sides of a glass off-putting. Yuck. One-percent milk is crisp, drinkable, watery, cold, and refreshing. Great to drink on its own or as a bath for cereal. Personally, I think skim is too watery, and 2% too close to whole, but I accept those options as well. For me, it's not any fear of fat intake that has kept me from buying whole milk; it's that whole milk is stinky and gross. I should note here that the health benefits of whole vs. low-fat milk are a living, breathing debate. Whole milk has more saturated fat, which is potentially "bad," but it has more vitamins and enzymes or whatever, which are potentially "good." (Disclaimer: I'm not a scientist here, people! Don't trust me — do your own research.) If you're truly interested in learning more about the details of the health benefits of dairy, I suggest you read this instead of listening to me whine about my personal milk preference. Don't listen to me about healthy food choices; my doctor shook her head sadly and said "noooooo" when I told her what kinds of garbage I typically eat for dinner (yes, my cholesterol is high). For me, worrying about the milkfat content of my cereal is like worrying about which multivitamin brand to buy when I often go days without eating a fresh vegetable. I'm stuffing so many chemicals and processed garbage down my gullet on the reg that any kind of milk is the healthiest thing I'll consume by far. Robert F. Kennedy presents the new "Dietary Guidelines for Americans," which include favoring whole milk. Yuck. Anna Moneymaker/Getty Images Yes, I'm sure there are some of you out there who are adult whole milk fans and prefer it over skim. Like whole milk? Know that I see you, I accept you, and you are valid. It's fine to have a taste preference. But I simply don't believe there are throngs of adults out there who've been feeling forced to choke down 2% when they were dying for whole milk. You're a grownup! Buy whatever milk you like! Of course, the main point of the latest guidelines isn't really aimed at making suggestions to adults. The actionable part of the guidelines is that they inform the rules for federal food programs for kids, like the National School Lunch Program, which previously only allowed low-fat milk options. I don't really care if a kid prefers whole or skim milk with their sloppy Joe or PB&J — either option seems better to me than chocolate milk, which, according to my own elementary school children, is what everyone chooses at lunch anyway. If the government is going to start meddling more with school lunches, frankly, I'd welcome them to start with the abusive fee structure in some of the digital lunch payment systems that many districts have adopted. My kids' school uses a payment provider for lunches that charges a $3.50 fee every time you add money to your kid's account (and requires separate accounts per sibling). President Trump, please look into that. For me, I am not going to change my milk-drinking ways. I was raised in a 1% household. I will continue to buy 1% because it's delicious, and whole milk is gross, and Uncle Sam can't tell me what to do. Read the original article on Business Insider
