Well isn’t this Rockford Peach-y: A League of Their Own alum Rosie O’Donnell says she’ll be part of Amazon’s series adaptation of the 1992 film.
Billed as a “reinterpretation” of the Penny Marshall classic about World War II-era women’s professional baseball, Amazon’s hour-long adaptation — which the streamer ordered to series in August 2020 — will widen the lens to tell the story of an entire generation of women who dreamed of playing as pros. As it takes a deeper look at race and sexuality, A League of Their Own follows a new ensemble of characters as they carve...

Netflix Spain’s popular YA series “Elite” season four will premiere on June 18 worldwide. Among the service’s most popular programs in any language, “Elite” stands among the few series, international or American, to surpass the three-season mark at the platform.
The U.S streaming giant first announced season four just about two months after season three launched on the streamer and was seen by more 20 million households. The cast, including Miguel Bernardeau and Claudia Salas, announced the pickup via a video from their homes in quarantine. In late February of this year, Season Five was commissioned by Netflix, and two new key castings announced in Valentina Zenere and André Lamoglia.
The two newcomers will join the now superstar cast including series regulars Miguel Bernardeau, Claudia Salas, Georgina Amoros, Itzan Escamilla and Omar Ayuso, who joined the show in season three.

And now for some good baseball news in 2020: Amazon has officially ordered to series A League of Their Own, an adaptation of the beloved 1992 film.
Billed as a “reinterpretation” of the Penny Marshall classic, Amazon’s hour-long adaptation — which first went into development in 2018 — will widen the lens to tell the story of an entire generation of women who dreamed of playing professional baseball. As it takes a deeper look at race and sexuality, A League of Their Own follows a new ensemble of characters as they carve their own paths toward the field, both in the League and outside of it.

“Elite” will be coming back for another season of drama in a fancy Spanish high school.
Netflix has picked up the series for season 4 around two months after season 3 launched on the streamer. The cast, including Miguel Bernardeau and Claudia Salas, announced the pickup via a video from their homes in quarantine. Precisely when season 4 will be available is yet to be announced, especially given the current uncertainty of the coronavirus production shutdown.
“I wanted to tell you that we have got the scripts of season 4 and they look so good,” says Bernardeau in the video.
“You better be prepared, because it’s intense,” adds fellow cast member Aron Piper.
