Welcome to your weekly Pop Culture Fix!


+ Kristen Stewart is on the cover of Harper Bazar UK this month, and in the profile she told writer Sophie Elmhirst that Hollywood is still homophobic as heck: “I have fully been told, ‘If you just like do yourself a favour, and don’t go out holding your girlfriend’s hand in public, you might get a Marvel movie.’ I don’t want to work with people like that.” (The whole profile is great; you should read it!)

+ Indya Moore joins Draco Malfoy for Babysitter’s Guide to Monster Hunting.

+ Grace and Frankie will be back one more time for a final 16-episode seventh season, officially making it Netflix’s longest-running original series.

+ Apparently Dark Crystal has a lesbian gelfling couple!

+ Looks like Nico won’t be back for the second season of Charmed. :(

+ Jill Soloway and Julianne Moore are teaming up for Mothertrucker.

+ Beanie Feldstein has joined Richard Linklater’s Merrily We Roll Along, which is a 20-year project adapting the Sondheim musical on an IRL timeline???

+ Read this NYT piece on Barbie Ferreira and Hunter Schafer, trust me.

+ The WNBA is putting on some of the best pro basketball in America (also the gayest). (Speaking of which, Sue Bird’s out for the rest of the year with a knee injury.)

+ Holland Taylor has joined Ryan Murphy’s Netflix adaptation of A Chorus Line.
