10 ENTERTAINMENT EXTRA By Raye Smith TV Media WHAT'S NEW ON HULU "The Full Monty" Lay it all on the line with the highly anticipated limited series reboot of "The Full Monty" when it premieres on Hulu Wednesday, June 14. The original hit film from 1997 follows a group of six steelworkers who, desperate for cash, form a male striptease group. Now, this revival catches back up with the original cast 25 years on, as the Sheffield, U.K., natives settle into a new way of living. Now worlds away from their entertainment pasts, Gary "Gaz" Schofield (Robert Carlyle, "Trainspotting," 1996) is navigat- ing relationships with his police officer son, Nathan (Wim Snape, "The Beaker Girls"), and rebellious teenage daughter, Destiny (Talitha Wing, "Wolfe"), and Dave (Mark Addy, "Game of Thrones") and his wife, Jean (Lesley Sharp, "After- life"), now work at the same school and are dealing with some big issues both in and out of the class- room. Meanwhile, Lomper (Steve Huison, "Coronation Street") and his husband, Dennis (Paul Clayton, "The Crown"), are trying to keep their dwindling, cheekily named Big Baps café afloat; Horse (Paul Barber, "Only Fools and Horses") is strug- gling to make ends meet amidst a crumbling welfare system; and Gerald (Tom Wilkinson, "Belgra- via") is keeping on with his job at a construction firm. Also seeing Hugo Speer ("The Musketeers") return as Guy, the series cast is rounded out by Miles Jupp ("Why Didn't They Ask Evans?"), Tupele Dorgu ("Coronation Street"), Phillip Rhys Chaudhary ("24"), Aiden Cook ("All Creatures Great and Small") John Hollingsworth ("1917," 2019), Lisa Allen ("Emmerdale Farm"), Joe Standerline ("Safe") and new talent Jaxon Valentine. "Jagged Mind" (2023) Get to the bottom of it all with the new, Hulu Original horror flick "Jagged Mind" when it premieres on the streamer Thursday, June 15. The film stars Billie (Maisie Richardson-Sellers, "DC's Legends of Tomorrow"), who is suffering from blackouts and strange visions that feel like she's living the same moments of her life over and over. Soon, she discovers that the events may be linked to Alex, her mysteri- ous new girlfriend (Shannon Wood- ward, "Westworld"). From director Kelley Kali ("I'm Fine (Thanks for Asking)," 2021) and writer Allyson Morgan ("Law & Order: Special Vic- tim's Unit"), the film is co-executive produced by Morgan, Miles Alva ("Voodoo MacBeth," 2021) and Carl Reid ("Grounded").

Returning for her third special with Netflix — after "The Leather Special" in 2017 and "Growing" in 2019 — Schumer de- livers more hilariously relatable and uncensored commentary about her life as she touches on everything from lasering her face, postpartum sex, her baby-naming disaster and chewable Viagra to role-playing with her husband and secret inse- curities. No topic is too personal for this award-winning comedian, ac- tor and writer. Shot at the Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles, "Emergency Contact" is directed by Schumer herself and executive produced by Marcus Raboy ("Patton Oswalt: We All Scream," 2022). WHAT'S NEW ON PRIME VIDEO "The Grand Tour: Eurocrash" - Season 5B Former "Top Gear" hosts James May, Jeremy Clarkson and Richard Hammond return to Prime Video screens around the world when Season 5 of "The Grand Tour" con- tinues Friday, June 16, with its new- est installment, titled "Eurocrash." James, Richard and Jeremy seem to have a problem: every country they want to visit is either a trouble hot spot or has banned them from entering. So instead, they head to central Europe on a road trip nobody has ever thought of, in cars nobody would ever dream of using. Heading out on an "epic 1,400-mile journey in an outrageous Japanese Al Capone gangster car, a pickup that thinks it's a convertible, and a 75-year-old American micro mini" (per Prime Video), the boys travel from Gdansk in Poland through Slovakia and Hungary before head- ing on to their final destination at Slovenia's stunning Lake Bled.
