This week on “TheWrap-Up,” hosts Sharon Waxman and Daniel Goldblatt discussed the shocking decision to overturn Bill Cosby’s sexual assault conviction, the latest in the Britney Spears conservatorship and a “Black Widow” review that focused on Scarlett Johansson’s “sensuous” voice.
Then we’re joined by Emily Vogel, who writes our WrapWomen blog and is about to launch a new podcast called “UnWrapped.” We talked about her plans for the podcast and her reaction to a series of news stories this week that felt like a big step back for the #MeToo movement.
Finally, TheWrap’s Jenny Maas recently got a chance to chat with Leslye Headland, showrunner of “Russian Doll” and the upcoming “Star Wars” series, “The Acolyte.” They discussed what it means to be the first queer woman behind a “Star Wars” title and how she wanted to staff the show with a few writers who didn’t necessarily know anything about the franchise.
