Series "BOOTS" Premieres October

Miles Heizer, known for his roles in 13 Reasons Why and Parenthood, is set to star in the new Netflix series BOOTS, premiering on October 9th.

This eight-episode coming-of-age story draws inspiration from ex-US Marine Greg Cope White’s memoir, The Pink Marine. The series is brought to life by creator and co-showrunner Andy Parker, whose previous works include Tales of the City and Imposters. Showrunner Jennifer Cecil, with a background in shows like One Tree Hill and Hostages, also contributes to the project.

Adding to its impressive lineup, the series is executive produced by the legendary Norman Lear.

In a fresh take on military life during the 1990s, the upcoming dramedy "BOOTS" explores the challenges faced by young recruits in the U.S. Marine Corps when homosexuality was still grounds for discharge. The hour-long series centers on Cameron Cope, portrayed by Miles Heizer, a young man without direction who's hiding his sexual identity, and his best friend Ray McAffey, played by Liam Oh, who carries the weight of his decorated Marine father's legacy.

The show offers a candid look at the rigorous boot camp experience where a diverse group of young recruits must navigate both physical obstacles and emotional struggles while forming unexpected friendships. Set against the backdrop of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" era military policy, "BOOTS" examines themes of identity, belonging, and personal growth in an institution designed for conformity.

With equal measures of humor and emotion, the series depicts how these young people discover their authentic selves despite a system that often works against individual expression. "BOOTS" ultimately celebrates resilience and the powerful bonds formed when facing adversity together, showing how people can find their place even in the most challenging environments.

The highly-anticipated third season of Wednesday is set to make its spine-chilling comeback. Mark your calendars, as it will officially return to bring more eerie thrills and suspenseful moments. Get ready to be haunted once again, starting from the announced date.

Netflix is set to welcome a fresh lineup of content in September 2025, adding more variety for its subscribers.

Among the new additions, a coming-of-age story titled "BOOTS" will make its debut on October 9.

Mark your calendars for the end of August, as the streaming giant gears up to unveil these exciting titles.

Charlie Hunnam Details Physical and Mental Journey for Serial Killer Role

In a recent interview, actor Charlie Hunnam opened up about the extensive transformation he underwent to portray notorious murderer Ed Gein in the upcoming psychological thriller.

"This role required me to go to places I've never been before as an actor," Hunnam revealed, describing both the physical alterations and psychological preparation necessary for the disturbing character study.

The British performer, known for his previous work in action-oriented projects, explained that embodying the Wisconsin killer demanded significant weight fluctuation and hours in the makeup chair daily.

"Understanding the mindset of someone capable of such horrific acts was the real challenge," Hunnam admitted. "I had to find a way to access those dark corners while maintaining my own mental health throughout production."

The film, which chronicles Gein's disturbing crimes that later inspired classic horror characters like Norman Bates and Buffalo Bill, represents Hunnam's most dramatic departure from his typical roles to date.

Industry insiders are already speculating about award potential for the transformation, with early screening reactions highlighting the unrecognizable nature of Hunnam's performance.
