Iain Armitage OF YOUNG SHELDON ON CBS celebrity

Q: With “Young Sheldon” over, what will Iain Armitage do next?

BY JAY BOBBIN

A: The young actor – who turns 16 in July, and has posted on social media that he’ll be getting his pilot’s license – didn’t have definite professional plans at the time this was written, though having had a weekly series commitment for the past seven years (minus last year’s actors’ strike), we suspect that something of a more regular school schedule might be in his immediate future. Of course, there was tutoring on the set of his just-ended CBS series, but it’s not the same going-to-class situation that most youngsters experience.

Armitage has built such an identity with viewers as the youthful incarnation of brainy Sheldon Cooper, also of “The Big Bang Theory” fame, it’ll be interesting to see what sort of role he tackles next and how soon. When identification with one character is that strong, the given performer sometimes waits a while before trying something else, so the audience has a chance to recalibrate and accept the actor as someone else.

Still, Armitage came into “Young Sheldon” already having notable acting experience. He had such television credits as HBO’s “Big Little Lies” (as the Shailene Woodley character’s son) and NBC’s “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.”

Additionally, Armitage worked on such films as “Scoob!” (as the voice of the young Shaggy, of the “Scooby-Doo” franchise) and “PAW Patrol: The Movie,” as well as “The Glass Castle” and “Our Souls at Night.” Armitage – who speaks Russian fluently, possibly opening him up to roles of that nationality – is the grandson of Richard Armitage, who served as a deputy secretary of state in the administration of President George W. Bush.

Jannik Sinner in search of his second career Grand Slam at Roland Garros

The tennis world returns to familiar grounds at Roland Garros in Paris, when the 2024 French Open gets underway Sunday, May 26. The opening rounds air live on NBC.

Ready to serve fans another world-class performance, Italy’s Jannik Sinner has his eyes set on competing for his second career major. In the midst of a season to remember, the 22-year-old is holding a career-high ranking of world No. 2, while also becoming the highest-ranked Italian tennis player to ever hit the courts.

Proving beyond a doubt that he has what it takes to compete with the best of the best, Sinner has already won three titles in 2024 — including his first Grand Slam victory at the Australian Open, his second ATP Masters 1000 Indian Wells title and the Rotterdam Open in the Netherlands — entering the month of May with an impressive 28-2 record.

With expectations seemingly growing with each victory, Sinner discussed in an interview with Vogue magazine about dealing with the pressures of moving up in the tennis rankings.

“The pressure, you have to take it in a positive way,” Sinner said. “You have to be kind with the pressure. You have to make friendship. If you hate this pressure, it’s the wrong spot for you, no? The really good and positive thing about tennis is you have this momentum. The momentum can be positive, happy. And can be negative when you lose. But you live in a momentum. In my mind, everything goes quite fast.”

Having lost only four matches since his defeat at the U.S. Open back in September, look for Sinner to come out on fire in the early rounds as he looks to continue etching his name into the history books in search of his second Grand Slam victory.

It’s been one wild ride for Cordell Walker (Jared Padalecki), but with more leads to follow and his investigation finally narrowing in, Walker is closer to having answers than ever before. As the past becomes clearer, the future begins to unfog for everyone, from August (Kale Culley) and Stella (Violet Brinson) to matriarch Abeline Walker (Molly Hagan). Season 4 of “Walker” continues with a brand-new episode, airing Wednesday, May 29, on the CW. Find out more about the show at www.cwtvpr.com/the-cw/shows/walker/about/

Monster at large: Real fears come to life in ‘Eric’

Some know him as Sherlock Holmes, others know him as Doctor Stephen Strange, and based on the title of his next project, a fair few might assume that Benedict Cumberbatch (“The Imitation Game,” 2014) now also stars as “Eric” — but it is far more complicated than that.

In “Eric,” Netflix’s new limited series, premiering Thursday, May 30, on the streamer, two-time Oscar nominee Cumberbatch stars as Vincent Anderson, a well-known puppeteer on the fictional children’s TV show “Good Day Sunshine.” Also a devoted father, Vincent uses one of his son’s creations — a monster named Eric — as his inspiration in a tireless crusade for justice.

As described by Netflix on its press website Tudum, “Eric” is a fantastical story rooted in very real terror. When Vincent’s nine-year-old son, Edgar (new talent Ivan Howe), goes missing while on his way to school one day, the puppeteer’s entire life is thrown into disrepair. Distressed and blaming himself for the tragic disappearance, Vincent finds hope in a drawing Edgar had once created of a large blue monster named Eric, who supposedly lives under Edgar’s bed. So lost in his grief and helplessness, it isn’t long before Vincent comes up with a plan: “If he can get Eric on TV, then Edgar will come home” (per Netflix).

And so begins Vincent’s obsessive tether to Eric.

“As Vincent’s progressively destructive behavior alienates his family, his work colleagues and the detectives trying to help him,” reads an article on Tudum, “it’s Eric, a delusion of necessi-

Following this series’ groundbreaking Season 1 finale, this latest slate of episodes has detailed the events following the recorded confession of New York City real estate heir Robert Durst, leading to his eventual murder conviction. With one installment remaining, new interviews, new materials and more conversations with Durst are shared, leading to the season’s conclusion. The final chapter of “ The Jinx: Part Two” debuts Sunday, May 26, on HBO, with a series trailer available at youtube.com/watch?v=ShYl5K8Nlq8

ty, who becomes his only ally in the pursuit to bring his son home.”

Highlighting a terrifying time in New York City’s history, “Eric” is set when the AIDS epidemic was reaching its peak, crime was still on the rise following a string of serial killers in the city during the 1970s and the disappearance of six-year-old Etan Patz helped spawn the “Stranger Danger” movement many still reference today.

Although it has not explicitly been stated that the events in “Eric” are based on Patz’s real-life case, there certainly are similarities. Patz, a sixyear-old New Yorker, disappeared on the way to his SoHo neighborhood bus stop in 1979, never to be seen or heard from again. Despite this hardly being the first child abduction in the city, Patz’s vanishing worked as a catalyst for change, prompting discussions around citywide safety and ushering in new laws aimed at protecting the city’s youth from dangerous offenders.

As Patz was one of the first missing children to appear on a milk carton, his case saw national attention and remained in the public eye until its resolution nearly four decades later when, in 2017, former convenience store clerk Pedro Hernandez was convicted of murdering the child. Patz and other young victims like him are remembered each May 25 (the date Patz went missing) since 1983, when then-President Ronald Reagan proclaimed the day National Missing Children’s Day.

“Eric,” meanwhile, gives viewers an inside look at the trauma, grief and layers of hardship caused by such a tragic event.

This time, it’s “the more butter, the better,” as Stephanie Boswell and Ludo Lefebvre task the bakers with creating buttery mashups inspired by Julien Abourmad and Emmanuel Gunther’s “cruffin” creation. Afterwards, the bakers are asked to exercise a passion for fashion, using runway shows as inspiration to craft trios of desserts that work together as a collection. Targeting your sweet tooth, this new episode of “Next Baking Master: Paris” premieres Monday, May 27, on Food Network.

celebrity update Natasha Lyonne

BY ADAM THOMLISON

“Gordon Ramsay: Uncharted” - Seasons 4, New Episodes (May 28) In this National Geographic series, chef Gordon Ramsay journeys to some of the most incredible and remote locations on Earth in search of culinary inspiration, epic adventures and cultural experiences he will never forget.

Q: What’s Natasha Lyonne been doing after “Poker Face”?

A: Plot twist: more “Poker Face.”

The folks behind “Poker Face” did a good job of hiding their intentions of making a second season (there’s probably a joke in there somewhere), so you can be forgiven for thinking the hit detective series, released on the fledgling Peacock streaming service, was finished. Peacock even called the show a “10-part series” on its posters.

Perhaps they were just waiting to see if it would be a hit — and it was. The show raked in loads of attention, accolades and awards nods, and so Peacock bought another season before Season 1 was even finished airing in early 2023.

Unfortunately, there’s still no word on when the second season will be released.

But, Lyonne has been keeping busy in the meantime. This includes taking voice roles in shows like “The Second Best Hospital in the Galaxy” and “HouseBroken,” and moving behind the camera as a producer of the Apple TV+ sitcom “Loot” and director of stand-up comedian Jacqueline Novak’s Netflix special, “Get On Your Knees.”
