Gale Anne Hurd, producer of The Walking Dead and co-writer of Terminator, just made a special NYCC appearance at the Amazon Video panel. Hurd announced she will be working with creator Aaron Mahnke to adapt his award-winning podcast 'Lore.' The podcast focuses on non-fiction scary stories, with an emphasis on exploring the origins of modern mythology. Mahnke has traditionally done all of the research and storytelling for 'Lore,' but upgrading to a live-action streaming series will allow them to expand their writers' room and incorporate reenactments. Hurd promises the upcoming season will deal with 'vampires, werewolves, ghosts, zombies (her favorite), and yes even serial killers.' Joining the production crew will be former The X-Files writer Glen Morgan, who will be serving as showrunner. Mahnke told a heartwarming story during the panel about growing up as a devoted X-Files fan in college, naming Glen Morgan's "Home" as his favorite episode. When Morgan contacted him independently to say he was enjoying 'Lore,' the two developed an ongoing friendship. Mahnke describes having Morgan in his writer's room as "a dream come true."

Breathing new life into a popular, nostalgia-filled childrens franchise isnt easy. But the actors who comprise the titular superheroes of Sabans Power Rangers  Naomi Scott, Becky G., Dacre Montgomery, RJ Cyler and Ludi Lin  embrace the high school aged characters as if they were truly walking in their shoes. Im Billy and I play RJ, flubs Cyler as hes introducing himself and the character he plays. I mean Im RJ and I play Billy. Sometimes! snorts Scott with a laugh. Sometimes they actually do cross into each other, adds Becky G. That familial camaraderie exudes from all five actors, making it easy for lines to blur between fact and fiction. Case in point: I play Trini, the yellow Power Ranger, explains Becky G. I think whats really cool about her is that she is independent due to her circumstances. She kind of found no point in making friends ever because shes constantly moving schools. And then, finally, shes forced to be friends with people. And the evolution of those friendships turns into really genuine relationships in the crazy adventure that we all go into together. This sentiment is clearly reflected by all five actors during the course of the interview  real-life strangers who became close friends during the shooting of the film. Check out what the rest of the Rangers crew has to say about each other and their characters.
