Another Wednesday, another Pop Culture Fix — crafted lovingly, just for you.

+ Birds of Prey director Cathy Yan wants Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy to get together in the Birds of Prey sequel.

+ The teaser trailer for Janelle Monae’s Homecoming is here and she’s absolutely smoochin’ a lady in it! Natalie made you a screenshot!

+ Fugitive production company has picked up the rights to Abby, a drama “based on the true story of Abby Stein, a young woman from New York, who used to be an ultra-Orthodox rabbi.”

+ Cameron Esposito chatted with The Advocate about releasing her memoir during a pandemic.

+ The cast of Grace and Frankie are doing a live-read of an unseen episode from the upcoming seventh season.

+ The Last of Us 2 has been delayed indefinitely, but I’m more excited for it than ever after reading a right wing blog that said it’s “pro-lesbian propaganda” with “Christian villains.”

+ Fox has cancelled Deputy, which isn’t a surprise, but is a bummer; Bex Taylor-Klaus was awesome in it.

+ Stay until the end!

  1. I saw that thumbnail, and I thought that they were doing a Julie d’Aubigny movie. The sadness and need is real.

  2. I didn’t enjoy it because the ravenous need for Adventures of Julie d’Aubigny awoke from its slumber and it plagues me still.
