Celia Cruz's Legacy, Broadway Breakthroughs and Hollywood Happenings
Cuban musicians and the U.S. ambassador in Havana honored salsa legend Celia Cruz. In New York, Broadway actors reached a deal to avoid a strike. Warner Bros Discovery denied a bid from Paramount. Fans shaved their heads for a special screening of 'Bugonia.' Netflix partners with toy giants for 'KPop Demon Hunters.'
A select group of Cuban musicians, alongside the top U.S. diplomat in Cuba, gathered in Havana to pay tribute to the late salsa icon Celia Cruz on what would have been her 100th birthday. The quiet ceremony took place in Havana's central Catholic church after the National Center for Popular Music canceled a previously planned homage.
In New York, Broadway actors and stage managers, represented by Actors' Equity, successfully negotiated a three-year agreement with The Broadway League, avoiding a potential strike that could impact 32 stage productions during the peak theater season.
Warner Bros Discovery's board turned down a nearly $60 billion offer from Paramount Skydance. The company announced it would explore other sale options, highlighting assets such as the Warner Bros studios, CNN networks, and HBO Max. Meanwhile, Netflix collaborates with Mattel and Hasbro to create 'KPop Demon Hunters' merchandise, and fans shaved their heads to attend an early screening of the sci-fi comedy 'Bugonia,' starring Emma Stone.
