Dennis Quaid has done it all. The Golden Globe nominee, who became a silver screen star in the '80s, has worked in TV, movies, theater and more over the course of his prosperous career, but now he's trying something new: streaming. In an interview below conducted with his co-star in "The Art of More," Crackle's first original drama series from creator Chuck Rose, Quaid mentions how he first binge-watched a show only two years ago. Now he's hooked and starring in a season of television set to be released all at once November 19.

Debuting on November 19 with a full 10-episode first season, The Art Of More certainly has more than a little of the shock of the new in it, on many levels. But art world talk aside, the first hourlong drama series from Crackle is, as my video review above says, well worth bidding on. With the high society, big money, big egos and the streets colliding, the Chuck Rose created and Gardner Stern run show has a lot of the same vibe as Empire – but with a context of its own…...

Now having reached a ripe old age of 14, "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close" star Thomas Horn is extremely hot … in Hollywood, that is.
The brainy thesp who was discovered by Scott Rudin when he saw the then 12-year-old on "Jeopardy!" has just booked not one, but two new feature films.
According to Deadline, Horn will first star in "Space Warriors," a coming-of-age story (we assume) about five kids who win coveted spots at Nasa's space camp and spring into action when something goes wrong aboard a space station. Sean McNamara, who most recently brought us sugary sweet Carrie Underwood starrer "Soul Surfer," is directing.
Next, he'll play the lead role alongside Kris Kristofferson in the Chuck Rose-directed "Joe's Mountain," which follows a former ladies' man (Kristofferson) who's miraculously cured of cancer and then, in turn, tries to save a boy with bad lungs by taking him to a magic lake to heal him.

I never actually saw Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close — if only on the grounds of some kind of moral indignation — but this writer was, nevertheless, curious to see what happened with the film’s debut star, Thomas Horn. What’s more, a divergent reaction after the film’s release only further amplified said curiosity; although some have told me that he carried all that grief with a conviction and range impressive for any age, I’ve heard less-than-kind things from just about as many folks. But that’s only personal. No matter how people reacted, there is one question on everyone’s mind: What’s next for the former Jeopardy! champ?
Well, he won’t go the way of Danny Lloyd. Deadline reports that Horn has found himself a big role in two new films — one of which stars a living legend, no less. The first of these would be Space Warriors,...

Thomas Horn was plucked from near-obscurity to co-star alongside Sandra Bullock and Tom Hanks in Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close. He’s showing no signs of giving up the acting lark after that experience, and has just booked two very different movies: Space Warriors and Joe’s Mountain.While they both sound like they could be theme-park rides, only Space Warriors has the potential to become an attraction. Sean McNamara is directing the film, which appears to be an updated version of 1986’s Space Camp. The plot finds a group of kids who win places at Nasa’s training camp for wannabe astronauts, and who must rocket into action (literally) when something goes wrong on a space station. There’s no word on whether a cute/annoying robot will be involved at any point.Once he’s finished pretending to be weightless and bonding with his fellow astro-nuts, Horn will switch...
