    Harry Potter Series Trailer, Bachelorette Canceled and Chuck Norris Dies | HWP 1015

    27-03-2026 | 1 u. 13 Min.
    This week on Hardly Working, it’s a packed episode with major casting news, nostalgic reboots, and one legendary goodbye.
    We kick things off with a huge moment in entertainment history — the passing of Chuck Norris at age 86. A true icon whose legacy somehow includes both martial arts dominance and the internet’s greatest one-liners of all time.
    In Disney news, a powerhouse group of legends were honored, including:
    Anne Hathaway
    Dwayne Johnson
    Lin-Manuel Miranda
    The Jonas Brothers
    And Bob Iger, whose leadership shaped modern Disney as we know it
    Plus legends behind the scenes like Eric Goldberg and Jerry Bruckheimer getting their flowers.
    In reboot news… yes, they’re doing it again.
    A 13 Going on 30 remake is officially happening on Netflix, starring Emily Bader and Logan Lerman, with Jennifer Garner returning as an executive producer — and a modern twist on Jenna’s family dynamic.
    Meanwhile, the first teaser for the new Harry Potter series has dropped, confirming:
    A Christmas Day 2026 premiere
    A brand new trio (Dominic McLaughlin, Alastair Stout, Arabella Stanton)
    And a stacked supporting cast including John Lithgow, Nick Frost, and Paapa Essiedu
    In Netflix news, a live-action Scooby-Doo prequel has officially cast its full Mystery Inc. team — and it’s giving origin story summer camp chaos.
    Reality TV took a hit this week as The Bachelorette was abruptly canceled just days before its premiere following controversy around its lead.
    And in prestige TV, Bridgerton Season 4 is moving forward with a new love story centered on Benedict Bridgerton.
    Also somehow happening:
    Stephen Colbert is co-writing a new The Lord of the Rings movie
    And yes… it’s based on storylines that were cut from the original trilogy
    And of course, Unpopular Opinions:
    Nausea is worse than actually throwing up
    Skiing is more inconvenience than fun
    Live TV with ads > streaming ads
    Potluck complainers are the worst
    Multi-day weddings are exhausting
    Holidays would be better without gift stress
    Reboots, nostalgia, chaos, and Chuck Norris jokes that will outlive all of us — all in one episode.

    Our Oscar Win! Baywatch Reboot and Spider-Man Casting! | HWP 1014

    20-03-2026 | 1 u. 2 Min.
    This week on Hardly Working, we’re diving into some of the biggest casting news, reboots, and hot takes that might actually offend you.
    We break down everything happening with Spider-Man: Brand New Day, including:
    Tom Holland and Zendaya returning
    Sadie Sink joining in a mystery role
    Jon Bernthal as Punisher
    Mark Ruffalo back as Hulk
    We also debate the 3 most likely roles Sadie could be playing — and why this movie might be setting up the next era of the MCU. 
    Then… the beach is back.
    A new Baywatch is in the works starring:
    Stephen Amell
    Shay Mitchell
    TikTok star Noah Beck
    Athlete/influencer Livvy Dunne
    We talk about whether this is a true reboot… or just another “Gen Z vibe show” built for aesthetics and social media reach.
    Also in TV news, The White Lotus Season 4 is shaping up to be STACKED with names like:
    Helena Bonham Carter
    Kumail Nanjiani
    Max Greenfield
    Chloe Bennet
    Vincent Cassel
    And yes — we explain why this cast feels so random… and why that’s exactly the point.
    Plus:
    Madonna is returning to acting for the first time in 20+ years
    A bigger conversation about how casting is shifting toward influencers + built-in audiences
    Why reboots are starting to feel more like brand extensions than actual storytelling
    And of course… Unpopular Opinions:
    Morning showers make no sense
    Most people don’t actually like traveling — they like having traveled
    Inconveniencing yourself is part of life (and we’ve stopped doing it)
    TV intros should be under 10 seconds
    Restaurant vibes don’t matter — the food does
    Casting chaos, reboot fatigue, and a little existential travel crisis — all in one episode.

    Tangled Casting, Taco Seasoning Crime & The Return of Scary Movie | HWP 1013

    13-03-2026 | 59 Min.
    This week on Hardly Working, it’s a rollercoaster of casting news, celebrity chaos, and one of the strangest shoplifting schemes we’ve ever heard.
    In movie news, Kathryn Hahn has officially been cast as Mother Gothel in the upcoming Tangled, which is very exciting… unless you’re Rapunzel.
    Meanwhile, it’s been a rough week for Britney Spears, who was reportedly pulled over for a DUI after police received a call about erratic driving.
    While we were away, we may have also missed a superhero wedding — rumors say Tom Holland and Zendaya have already tied the knot, though the couple hasn’t officially confirmed it yet.
    In fast food news:
    Burger King has released a Biscoff-filled soft serve cone
    Pizza Hut is bringing back its Hot Honey Pizza
    And yes, we discuss the very strange viral moment involving the McDonald's CEO’s extremely human bite of his new product.
    Sports fans might enjoy this one: Cristo Fernández, best known as Dani Rojas on Ted Lasso, is actually becoming a professional soccer player at 35.
    In Harry Potter-adjacent news:
    Emma Watson reportedly has a new boyfriend
    And Paul Bettany is rumored to be the top choice to play Voldemort in the upcoming Harry Potter.
    Meanwhile in media shakeups, the rumored acquisition of Warner Bros. by Paramount could put Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network under the same company for the first time ever.
    And the best news of the week:
    A brand-new Scary Movie is coming back starring Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Anna Faris, and Regina Hall.
    Plus, we break down one of the most bizarre crimes of the week — a Florida man allegedly stole thousands of dollars in trading cards from Target by scanning taco seasoning packets at self-checkout.
    And of course, Unpopular Opinions:
    If daylight savings started at noon on a Friday no one would complain
    Most podcasts would be better at 20 minutes instead of 2 hours
    Timid drivers are worse than aggressive ones
    Lego games are lazy cash grabs
    Pop culture chaos, fast food drama, and taco seasoning crime — all in one episode.

    Hannah Montana Turns 20, New Dinosaur Discovered, AMC Closing Theaters | HWP 1012

    06-03-2026 | 1 u. 5 Min.
    This week on Hardly Working, we’ve got prehistoric creatures, Disney nostalgia, and a possible cultural shift in masculinity — just a normal week.
    Scientists have announced the discovery of a new dinosaur species in the Sahara Desert: Spinosaurus mirabilis. Roughly the size of a T-Rex, 95 million years old, with a brightly colored scimitar-shaped crest and fish-catching teeth. Not aquatic. Not a diver. Just out here confusing everyone.
    In Harry Potter-adjacent news, Daniel Radcliffe revealed he was once pitched a remake of The Wizard of Oz where he would’ve played a karate-kicking Cowardly Lion and Emma Watson would’ve been Dorothy. He called it one of the worst ideas ever. Naturally, we cast it anyway.
    And speaking of Disney nostalgia — the Hannah Montana 20-year anniversary special is officially coming to Disney+. It’ll feature Miley Cyrus, recreated sets, unseen footage, and a live audience taping hosted by Alex Cooper. Yes, she’s back in the wig.
    In theater news, AMC Theatres reported declining attendance and revenue, even with major films like Avatar: Fire & Ash, Zootopia 2, and Wicked: For Good. Moviegoing still hasn’t fully bounced back — and AMC posted another quarterly loss.
    But maybe the industry shift is bigger than ticket prices. A new survey suggests teens are less interested in traditional superhero “tough guy” tropes and more interested in emotionally connected, vulnerable portrayals of masculinity. Less stoic alpha. More present father.
    Plus, Unpopular Opinions that may divide households:
    Early birds need to relax about night-owl noise
    Hollywood isn’t out of ideas — we trained them
    Blockbuster Video is remembered a little too fondly
    Goblet of Fire is actually one of the best Harry Potter films
    Dinosaurs, Disney wigs, struggling theaters, and emotional reinvention — all in one episode.

    Traitors Season Finale Event, Broken Glass in Trader Joe's Food and National Treasure 3! | HWP 1011

    28-02-2026 | 1 u. 2 Min.
    This week on Hardly Working, we’re asking the big question:
    If you’re 40+, what actually mattered in the long run… and what didn’t?
    From sleep, saying no, and showing up — to realizing the scoreboard at 40 looks nothing like it did at 25 — this episode hits different. We talk about:
    Why spending time with family matters more than milestone checklists
    Getting off the wrong train early (relationships included)
    Why impressing a boss rarely pays off
    The power of rest, nature, and just showing up
    And why it is later than you think
    Then in stories…
    Treasure hunters rejoice — National Treasure 3 is officially moving forward. Producer Jerry Bruckheimer confirms Nicolas Cage is expected to return as Ben Gates, with director Jon Turteltaub reportedly involved.
    In food news, it was a rough week for Trader Joe's.
    3.4 million pounds of frozen chicken fried rice were recalled after reports of glass found in multiple packages. Four confirmed incidents so far. Yes, we checked our freezer.
    The Hogwarts Express is picking up speed — casting has begun for additional characters in the upcoming Harry Potteradaptation. Meanwhile, John Lithgow openly wondered if he’ll survive long enough to attend the wrap party, citing heavy costuming, makeup, and fan backlash.
    And in sequel news, Bullet Train 2 is officially in the works, with Brad Pitt and Sandra Bullock expected to return.
    Plus, Unpopular Opinions:
    The Olympics are mostly hype and borderline unwatchable
    Being jealous of your friends is more normal than people admit
    Reflection, recalls, treasure maps, and midlife clarity — all in one episode.
