Entertainment news is led by a major loss in screen and animation culture, while the business and television sides of the industry also shift. The day brings the death of a beloved voice actor, a long-paused motoring franchise set to return, and a new legal fight tied to a celebrity-backed startup.
Peter Cullen, the actor whose voice defined Optimus Prime for generations of Transformers fans and brought Eeyore to life in Disney’s Winnie the Pooh projects, dies at 85. The Canadian performer becomes one of the most recognizable voice talents in popular culture through decades of work in animation, film and television.
Top Gear is set to return after the BBC confirms the motoring show will come back following a hiatus of about four years. The program is suspended after former host Andrew “Freddie” Flintoff is seriously injured in a filming crash that leaves him with facial injuries and broken ribs.
Selena Gomez asks a federal court to dismiss a fraud lawsuit tied to Wondermind, the mental health startup she co-founded. Investors claim Gomez and her mother, Mandy Teefey, misrepresented Gomez’s role and related information while seeking funding, while Gomez’s lawyers argue the case should not move forward.
