‘Special Ops: Lioness’ roars into action on Paramount+

BY JAY BOBBIN

Note: This interview took place before the SAG-AFTRA actors’ strike.

Q: With “Tough as Nails” now in its fifth season, where did the idea for the reality competition come from?

A: The inspiration for “Tough As Nails” comes from my grandfather. When I was in high school, I used to go over to my grandparents’ place. My parents were overseas at the time. Both my grandmother and my grandfather never got a chance at a high school education, but they were two very bright people … actually the brightest in their class when they were in middle school. And I always admired how both of them were able to be such contributors to the community.

I got to spend so much time with my grandfather, learning how to use tools. I always looked up to him, and it always irked me that some people somehow look down on people who maybe didn’t get a chance at an education, but who still have these incredible life skills.

Q: What are your main rules for “Tough as Nails” contestants?

A: That’s where you can get men and women competing against each other, people who are young, people who are old, tall, short. How many times have all of us judged somebody by the way they look, and we misjudge them? The idea that you never judge a book by its cover is really a big part of what “Tough As Nails” is all about.

Q: What is the ultimate message that you want “Tough as Nails” to put across?

A: There’s lots of shows out there that have honored people who are really good at singing, dancing, designing. Maybe they are good-looking and they are going to be models, but I felt that maybe there was a place for acknowledging those people who keep a country running, real people in real life who are real tough.

(They are) people who haven’t necessarily had a chance to be in the limelight because maybe they aren’t that great at singing, or maybe they sing in the shower and maybe nobody hears them, and maybe they really are good singers. The people who keep our country running, the people that maybe sometimes we’ve taken for granted in the past, because they are the ones that keep the lights on.

Pete Alonso hopes to keep Mets season alive

The Battle of New York resumes this week, as the New York Mets head to Yankee Stadium to take on the Yankees in a midsummer matchup airing July 25 on TBS and YES.

With both teams boasting payrolls among the largest in Major League Baseball, the Yankees seemingly have more to show for it than the Mets this season, despite this season’s Subway Series being tied 1-1. The Yankees started the month sitting at well over .500, and even an injury to star slugger Aaron Judge hasn’t derailed their season’s trajectory.

For the Mets, it’s been a season plagued by injuries and inconsistencies, making it difficult to stay out of the bottom half — a stark difference from the 2022 season. But if there is a glimmer of hope for the Mets, it’s former National League Rookie of the Year Pete Alonso.

Alonso has been one of the most consistent players not only for the Mets, but in the entire major leagues. This season, the Mets first baseman is one of the league’s top players in terms of home runs and leads his team in RBIs, proving that 2022 was no fluke. Despite missing 10 games with a sprained wrist and struggling in his early return from the IL, Alonso was selected to his third allstar team, having already won back-to-back Home Run Derby competitions in 2019 and 2021 (the 2020 edition was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic).

“I thought that the derby wasn’t necessarily the biggest priority when I was coming back from the wrist,” Alonso said earlier this month upon learning of his third career all-star selection. “It was trying to come back and be as productive as I can for my team. If I’m able to play a game, I’m definitely going to be able to take batting practice. So for me the biggest concern was getting back to the team. The derby for me is a happy bonus.”

Look for Alonso and the Mets to bring big energy against fellow all-star slugger Judge and the rival Yankees this week. Catch all the action live Tuesday, July 25 on TBS and YES.

Seeing action: ‘Special Ops:

Lioness’ debuts on Paramount+

One of the most popular actresses in cable movies is also the co-creator of one of streaming’s newest series. A veteran of Hallmark Channel who now does work for Great American Family, Jill Wagner (“Mystery 101”) teamed with writer-producer Taylor Sheridan (“Yellowstone,” “Tulsa King”) to create the international espionage thriller “Special Ops: Lioness,” which Paramount+ debuts Sunday, July 23. Zoe Saldana (“Avatar: The Way of Water,” 2022) has the central role of a military operative who has a special assignment at the front of the ongoing war against global terrorism. Nicole Kidman (“Big Little Lies”) and Michael Kelly (“House of Cards”) portray the supervisors of the largely female-driven Lioness program, which actually exists, and which Saldana’s character works within alongside a Marine Raider (Laysia De Oliveira).

Wagner effectively created a part for herself since she also has a co-starring role in “Lioness,” whose cast includes Morgan Freeman (“A Good Person,” 2023), LaMonica Garrett (“Designated Survivor”), James Jordan (“Wind River,” 2017) and Dave Annable (“Brothers & Sisters”) as well. Wagner knew Sheridan from before his current run as a powerhouse producer, also supplying the Paramount+ series “Mayor of Kingston” and “Tulsa King” as well as the “Yellowstone” prequels “1883” and “1923,” and they reunited to develop “Lioness” together. (Garrett, Jordan and Annable have worked for Sheridan before in some of his other shows.)

The new series features Wagner in a role that night not surprise those who know the former “Wipeout” co-host’s work from the shows “Blade” and “Teen Wolf,” though fans of her genteel work in virtually all of her cable movies might not expect the toughness of her “Lioness” character Bobby from her. That’s in keeping with the theme of the show, of course, but it’s an area Wagner hasn’t delved into much lately.

Similarly, Kidman has played it tough on occasion, though that’s also a relatively rare situation. The 2018 movie “Destroyer” is an excellent example, effective to the extent that at the time of the undercover-detective drama’s release, the Oscar-winning actress’ husband — country-music superstar Keith Urban — admitted (albeit jokingly) to being a little afraid of her, given the rugged nature of her portrayal in that film.

Kidman has been no stranger to home-screen work in recent years, and before her movie stardom, she began her career by doing television in Australia (where she grew up, though she was born in Honolulu). “Five Mile Creek,” “Vietnam” and “Bangkok Hilton” were among

her 1980s credits before her main focus shifted to feature films, and it would be almost 30 years until TV became a part of her resume again.

When she was cast opposite Elisabeth Moss in the second season of the limited series “Top of the Lake,” which was set in Australia and debuted in 2017, Kidman was considered a major “get.” The same year, she also starred (along with Reese Witherspoon) in the first season of the drama “Big Little Lies,” for which she earned a Primetime Emmy Award among other honors.

“The Undoing,” “Nine Perfect Strangers” and the anthology “Roar” followed for Kidman, and she presently has more series coming … including “Expats” and a show based on novelist Patricia Cornwell’s forensic-pathologist character Kay Scarpetta, plus the miniseries “The Perfect Couple” and “Faraway Downs.”

Military-investigation series such as “Special Ops: Lioness” have had their places on television for quite some time. Certainly, the “NCIS” shows have sustained the genre over the past 20 years, while such other programs as “Homeland,” “Strike Back” and “The Unit” have come (and gone) to dramatize the category. Paramount+ also has benefited from the continuation of “SEAL Team” since the move of its original episodes from CBS to the streaming service, where it has been renewed for a seventh season. Such shows typically have an international scope by necessity, and “Special Ops: Lioness” has followed suit not only in plotting, but in production. While filming was staged toward the end of last year principally in Washington, D.C., and Baltimore, some sequences were filmed in Paris and Mallorca, Spain.

The actual Lioness program has existed for approximately 20 years, and it was developed to conduct what the Marine Corps terms “culturally sensitive searches” of Iraqi women and children by female officers, who seek contraband before it can be smuggled through security checkpoints. The aim is to maintain good relations between countries while also letting the Marines do their jobs safely — something that could be problematic for male officers, who are not allowed to touch a woman not related to them under Muslim governance.

Such is the mission of Saldana’s “Special Ops: Lioness” character Joe, and the show emphasizes action-oriented elements of the job, though there clearly are emotional ones as well. Saldana and Kidman also are executive producers of the series along with Sheridan and Wagner, so they had a say in how the project strikes that balance — and they undoubtedly will have viewers among real-life Marines as well, giving them a wide audience range to satisfy overall.

Tom Bateman ON PEACOCK OF BASED ON A TRUE STORY

Q: I loved the new Poirot movies with Kenneth Branagh, and I thought the actor playing Poirot’s friend, Monsieur Bouc, was excellent. What else has he been in?

A: Tom Bateman has done a lot on TV and film, mostly in his native Britain, but he owes much of his current stardom to Kenneth Branagh (“Hamlet,” 1996).

He was a member of Branagh’s stage-acting troupe prior to being cast in the actor-director’s lavish adaptation of “Murder on the Orient Express” (2017), as the railway employee who helps Poirot solve the puzzling case.

He returned for the sequel, “Death on the Nile” (2022), and his career has since taken off nicely.

Most notably for North American audiences, Bateman has a leading role in the new sitcom “Based on a True Story,” which debuted last month on the streaming platform Peacock.

It stars “Big Bang Theory” alum Kaley Cuoco as a pregnant realtor who, along with Bateman’s character, gets caught up in a murder case. They try to exploit their predicament by investigating it themselves and turning it into a true-crime audio series (podcast, in modern parlance).

Bateman is clearly choosing to strike while the iron is hot, exposure-wise, because he has a second sitcom on the go at the same time back in the U.K. It’s a smaller part in “Funny Woman,” a ‘60s-set comedy about a woman trying to break into the male-dominated comedy scene. That one was released back in February, but it’s not available in the U.S. at this time.

Despite his star-making roles in those two Poirot films, TV is actually Bateman’s real milieu. He had leading roles in a number of U.K. shows in the ‘10s — most notably the 2019 mini-series “Beecham House,” in which he starred as John Beecham. You might be familiar with that one, at least, as it was later made available on PBS.
