In this coming-of-age story based on series co-creator Min- dy Kaling's ("The Office") own teenage years, modern-day, first-generation Indian Ameri- can teenager Devi deals with young love, friendships and con- tinuing grief from losing her fa- ther in the first season. As Devi and her best friends, Fabiola (Lee Rodriguez, "Class of Lies") and Eleanor (Ramona Young, "DC's Legends of Tomorrow"), encounter all kinds of new mile- stones in their lives and grapple with the college admissions pro- cess, prom prep and their im- pending graduation, they're still bound to hit a roadblock or two. Michael Cimino ("Love, Victor") joins the cast as bay boy Ethan this season, while returning cast members include Darren Barnet ("Love Hard," 2021), Jaren Lew- ison ("Tag," 2018), Benjamin Norris ("Superstore"), Niecy Nash ("The Rookie: Feds"), Ri- cha Moorjani ("Fargo"), Poorna Jagannathan ("The Night Of"), Megan Suri ("Atypical") and Ranjita Chakravarty ("It's a Mis- match," 2009), with profession- al tennis legend John McEnroe returning to his role as series narrator. "Arnold" Hot on the tail of the release of his new series "FUBAR," fans of the Governator can get even more "Arnold" when the new three-part biographical docuse- ries lands Wednesday, June 7, on Netflix. Chronicling the life of former professional bodybuilder, actor, filmmaker, businessman and politician Arnold Schwar- zenegger, from his childhood in the Austrian countryside to the American limelight, "Arnold" features a series of candid inter- views with Schwarzenegger, his friends, foes, co-stars and ob- servers. From his days in the bodybuilding scene to his suc- cess in the Terminator film fran- chise and his time as the gover- nor of California, the series takes a deeper look at the man behind the rock-solid, larger- than-life persona. Produced by Allen Hughes ("The Book of Eli," 2010), "Arnold" is directed by Lesley Chilcott ("Helter Skelter: An American Myth").
