1. George Clooney to direct and star in 'Good Morning, Midnight' for Netflix
George Clooney has signed on to direct and star in 'Good Morning, Midnight' for Netflix. It will be his first project with the streaming service.
Clooney and Smokehouse Pictures Grant Heslov will produce the adaptation of Lily Brooks-Daltons novel, which follows a lonely scientist in the Arctic, as he races to make contact with the crew of a spacecraft as they try to return home to Earth, according to a description from Netflix.
Grant and I couldnt be more excited to be involved with this incredible project, Clooney told Variety. Mark is a writer weve long admired and his script is haunting. Were thrilled to be working with our friends at Netflix as well.

Scott Stuber, head of Netflixs film division, said: Having known and worked with George for over two decades, I cant think of anyone better to bring this amazing story to life. The book is powerful and moving, and Marks adaptation is beautifully written. At its core, this is a story about human nature, and one that I know our global audiences will fall in love with, just like I did when I read it.

4. Comedian James Corden apologises after Balthazar restaurant ban
Comedian James Corden was temporarily banned from a New York restaurant on Monday after being "extremely nasty" to staff on two occasions, the owner said.
Keith McNally, who owns popular New York eatery Balthazar, said Corden had been an "abusive customer" after some errors with his orders.
But he later revealed the actor and TV host had since called and "apologised profusely".
Mr McNally then lifted the ban, saying, "I strongly believe in second chances."
In an earlier post laying out what happened, Mr McNally had described the host of The Late Late Show as "a hugely gifted comedian, but a tiny cretin of a man".
He said the first incident was in June, when Corden had eaten at Balthazar and showed a hair to the manager after his main course - the implication being it was in his food.
Mr McNally observed that "although this is diabolical, it happens very occasionally in all restaurants." He said Corden was unpleasant and told the manager: "Get us another round of drinks this second. And also take care of all our drinks so far."
A second run-in followed in November, the restaurant owner said. An omelette was the cause of the alleged rudeness.
"Mr Corden's wife ordered an egg yolk omelette with gruyere cheese and salad. A few minutes after they received the food, James called their server... and told her there was a little bit of egg white mixed with the egg yolk," Mr McNally wrote on Instagram.
Balthazar's staff remade the dish, but they "unfortunately sent it with home fries instead of salad", he added.
"That's when James Corden began yelling like crazy to the server: "You can't do your job! You can't do your job! Maybe I should go into the kitchen and cook the omelette myself!"
Mr McNally described the comedian as being "the most abusive customer" since the business opened 25 years ago.
The BBC has contacted Corden's team for comment. He has not addressed the allegations in public.
The row appears resolved from the restaurant's side, with Mr McNally observing: "Anyone magnanimous enough to apologise to a deadbeat layabout like me (and my staff) doesn't deserve to be banned from anywhere. Especially Balthazar."

5. Birmingham street photographer's exhibition extended
A popular photography exhibition, showcasing 20 years of street photography, has been extended.
Herbert Walters' work, Portraits of Black Britain, is being shown at the Medicine Bakery Gallery, New Street, in Birmingham.
The work shows different periods captured at various events in Birmingham and London by the 60-year-old.
"My work will live on for years and years to come," he said.
He said he first discovered a love of photography at just eight years old.
"We always had a camera in the house so I would use it to document my family, my life and those around me," he said.
"When I was a kid in school, I was told that I wasn't intelligent enough to go to university and complete a degree, and that I should go and work in a factory, so I ended up becoming a bricklayer."
Growing up in "industrial" Birmingham, he said there were not a lot of opportunities, but he eventually attended Birmingham City University aged 48.
"I feel like I went to university at a good age. If I had studied when I was much younger, I wouldn't have been as interested. But coming as a mature student, I made the most out of it," he said.
He has previously exhibited at the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery, Midlands Art Centre and the New Art Gallery in Walsall.
"I love doing documentary work and street photography as I will leave a legacy," he added.
His exhibition can now be seen until January 2023.
