The American cable television show, streaming on Disney + Hotstar in India, aired the finale of its fifth season this past week.

McCory is famous for her portrayal of the matriarch Polly Gray in Peaky Blinders.

British star Daniel Craig will be felicitated with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, which will be placed right next to former Bond star Roger Moore’s star. Craig, who recently bid adieu to Agent 007 after a five-film run, is the fourth Bond actor to be honoured with the star, after Moore, David Niven and Pierce Brosnan. Craig’s final outing as the MI6 agent, No Time To Die, has released in UK theatres.

Mohanlal

Mohanlal’s upcoming film Aaraattu will be released theatrically and not on OTT, the film’s director B Unnikrishnan has confirmed. However, he added that while theatres in Kerala will reopen on October 25, Aaraattu will hit the screens only in November. The director added since it’s a big-budget production, the makers will have to first assess the anticipated footfall, among other things, before the film’s release.

Meanwhile, Mohanlal has also wrapped up the shooting of Jeethu Joseph’s 12th Man in Idukki. This marks the third collaboration between the Malayalam megastar and the filmmaker. However, not much is known about his role in the film, which also stars Unni Mukundan, Sshivada, Saiju Kurup, Anu Mohan, Priyanka Nair, Rahul Madhav and Aditi Balan.
