| 0:00.0 | Hello everyone and welcome to slash film daily for Friday, May 5th, |
| 0:03.0 | 2023 on today's episode of the show. I'm going to talk a little bit about the |
| 0:06.2 | latest film and TV news. My name is Ben Pearson. I'm an editor at slash film. |
| 0:09.9 | And it is just me on a shorter episode today. |
| 0:13.0 | There are four movie news stories that I wanted to talk about, |
| 0:17.0 | and then we'll send you off into the weekend. |
| 0:19.0 | So I hope everybody has a great one. |

| 0:54.9 | flagship version of Yellowstone but of course this is like one of the most popular shows |
| 0:59.9 | out there right now so Paramount Plus has no interest in actually letting this thing |

| 1:09.4 | into a sequel series that is going to debut just the next month in December of this year, |
| 1:15.9 | which is a pretty perfect scenario for the folks at Paramount Plus, I have to say. |
