In April, we first introduced you to Rosie Mac, the beautiful 18-year-old stand-in for Emilia Clarke on HBO's "Game of Thrones."

When the model and actress doesn't have to be dressed like the Mother of Dragons, Mac is still lovely as a brunette.

Earlier this week, the gorgeous stand-in for Daenerys Targaryen posted new photos alongside fellow doubles from the show.

You may already recognize Ignacio Jimenez Blanco. He's the stand-in for Daenerys' lover Daario Naharis (Michiel Huisman) and has been getting a fair amount of press himself.

He's a model and actor from Spain and looks like this when he's out of his "GOT" garb:

 An HBO representative said she couldn't identify the other stand-ins in the photo. Nevertheless, here they are alongside the actors whom they stand in for.

It looks as if Dinklage has more than one stand-in.

Pretty good casting, huh?

NOW WATCH: Here's what 'Game of Thrones' stars look like in real life

Warning: There are spoilers ahead!

If you tuned into the season 3 premiere of "Hannibal," there was a huge cameo; however, you may have easily missed it!

About 30 minutes into the episode, we see Bedelia (Gillian Anderson) mere inches away from a man lying on the floor who died at her hands.

Normally, you wouldn't think to pay so much attention to a corpse lying in the background.

But when Hannibal (Mads Mikkelsen) passes by it, you get a glimpse of the actor lying on the floor.

At this point, you may still dismiss the lifeless actor on the ground; however, the series then showed him head on.

Let's take a closer look. 

Look familiar?

Yup. That's Zachary Quinto of "Star Trek" and "Heroes" fame playing a corpse!

Fans of the series will know series showrunner Bryan Fuller previously worked with Quinto on another NBC series, "Heroes." On that show, Quinto was a vicious serial killer himself, so it's kind of funny to see him dead on a series about another serial killer — especially without a line of dialogue.

Don't worry.

This won't be the last we see of him.

Fuller teased online during the season premiere we'll see more of the actor in episode 10.

"Hannibal" is on NBC Thursday nights at 10 p.m.

Bonsoir!

NOW WATCH: Jeremy Renner and Tom Cruise team up in a new trailer for the next 'Mission: Impossible'

NBC's "Hannibal" is a series that is appealing for many reasons, but a big one is obvious from day one: The food.

"Hannibal" is lavish in its attentions to all things culinary, putting together better shot and more artfully presented food porn than anything you'll see on Food Network. 

Of course, food is also where the show gets most of its horror from, given its subject's horrific palate. The dishes cooked by Hannibal Lecter (Mads Mikkelsen) often appear succulent and lovely; revolting to the viewer only because they know where they come from (and sometimes, they still look good). 

Much of this is thanks to the work of "Hannibal"food stylist Janice Poon, who runs lengthy postmortems of the show's dishes—complete with non-cannibal recipes—on her blog, Feeding Hannibal. It's a page you may want to bookmark with "Hannibal" season 3 now upon us. 

("Aperitif," season 1, episode 1): Hannibal's first scene has him dining on what looks like veal. It's probably not veal.

("Amuse-Bouche," season 1, episode 2): Hannibal serves Jack Crawford what he calls Pork Loin with Red Fruit Cumberland Sauce. While we don't see him kill anyone, we probably shouldn't trust him.

("Oeuf,"season 1, episode 4): Hannibal calls this elegant dish "rabbit." It's a person. Surprise!

Peggy Olson was a fan favorite on “Mad Men” for many reasons, so it was no surprise when the internet went nuts over Peggy’s strut into the offices of McCann Erickson at the end of the “Lost Horizon” episode. 

But at an appearance on “Late Night with Seth Meyers” on Thursday night, Elisabeth Moss, who played Olson, said shooting this now famous scene was not fun to do.

“It was not cool at all," she told Meyers.

"I was holding this box, and everything on ‘Mad Men' is super real so they made the box really heavy. I was like, ‘I can act that,’ but no.”

“The painting was kind of awkward and kind of large [to carry] and they wanted me to hold it [a certain way] so you can see it in certain shots.”

“And the cigarette is actually really difficult to do. James Dean makes it look super cool and easy but it's actually really hard to hold a cigarette in your mouth and walk.”

“So I was trying to look cool, trying to not drop the painting, trying to not bump into the walls.”

But there was something fun Moss got out of the experience. She chose the on-set music to walk to.

“I was like ‘Stayin' Alive,’ obviously," she told Meyers, referring to the Bee Gees song. “I'm walking down a hallway, what else would I be listening to?”

NBC's decision to release the entire season of new Charles Manson drama "Aquarius"was a bold move toward broadcast networks offering viewers the same binge-watching experience offered by streaming video companies such as Netflix and Amazon.

But alas, "Aquarius" won't be the show that will inspire such change. Business Insider spoke to several individuals, who asked to remain anonymous, about NBC's "Aquarius" experiment.

"This isn't a gamechanger," one individual from a rival network told BI. "That's not to say that someone else can do a similar kind of release and be more successful, but this wasn't it."

The drama's lackluster ratings and unclear revenue strategy has insiders at other major networks unimpressed and scratching their heads.

The ratings aren't convincing

NBC premiered the show last Thursday ahead of releasing the entire season to OK numbers. It earned a 1.05 rating in the advertiser-coveted 18-49-year-old audience and 5.7 million viewers.

When looking at the L+3 ratings, which include On Demand viewing but not online and streaming for the first three days, "Aquarius" increased by 35% in the 18-49 demo and added 1.5 million additional viewers. Again, good increases, but not necessarily impressive at these low numbers.

The next test would arrive in Week 2, after NBC released the entire 13-episode season.

Its second episode came up against tough competition from Thursday's NBA finals, plus it got the expected viewer erosion shows experience in the week after a premiere. It earned a 0.7 in the ad demo and just 3.9 million viewers.

It's hard to tell how much binge-watching cannibalized the live ratings with the NBA finals as part of the equation, but one insider believed that NBC wouldn't have done well anyway.

"The drop off was going to happen. It got more drop-off than say Fox," the individual said. Fox had actually placed second for ratings on Thursday night after ABC.

Another insider said, "There's no real way to know how ['Aquarius'] would've done."

Is NBC even making money?

Despite NBC's deal with a limited amount of advertisers for the show both on-air and in online/streaming, all of our insiders wondered how NBC was making any money.

"We still get most of our revenue from advertising, for better or for worse," one said. "I don't think NBC is making money."

The insider added, "I don't know what NBC knew, but my gut feeling was that 'Aquarius' was not a good show and NBC just wanted it out and over with. The binge-watching stunt gave a dog more attention than it would've gotten. So in that respect, NBC was successful."

Another insider said that NBC, which ended the 2014-2015 season as the highest-rated network, is in a position to experiment.

"NBC is trying different things," he said. "If it does well, then they'll take credit for it."

NBC didn't respond to BI's request for comment for this article, though the spokesperson did say the network doesn't plan on releasing "Aquarius'" streaming numbers (taking another page from the streaming companies which don't report their numbers).

Streaming will have its day

At any rate, our insiders agree that offering binge-watching isn't something the networks can ignore forever and will have to deal with at some point.

"I've spoken to some high level executives who say we'll all be Netflix in the future," the other network source said. "That day is still very far off."

NBC can still say it was the first to try it.

NOW WATCH: How The Netflix Model Is Poised To Destroy Traditional TV

In a conversation with Jerry Seinfeld at the Vulture Festival on Saturday promoting the upcoming season of his web show "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee," the comedian revealed that his greatest regret about his hit sitcom, "Seinfeld," was his decision to not following through with a certain lost episode.

"I had an episode all ready to go that we were going to do entirely, secretly, in claymation," Seinfeld said, to resounding gasps from the audience. "I had the studio ready, and the figures ready, and it was all good to go."

But Seinfeld was dissuaded from the idea when he learned that Tim Allen had already done a claymation episode on ABC's "Home Improvement." 

"I got scared off," Seinfeld said. "I thought, I don't want people to say I'm imitating Tim Allen. And I canceled it. I realize now that was a huge mistake. You know, we had Kramer taking a pencil and sticking it in his eye. And we were going to shoot fake promos, and everybody was going to think a regular episode was going to come on, and it was going to be all claymation. And so, that was a huge mistake. So yeah, that's what I regret."

Watch Seinfeld explain the story in his own words below:

The sixth season of Seinfeld's "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee" will premiere on Wednesday at 11:30 p.m. with an episode featuring Julia Louis-Dreyfus. Guests for the rest of the season include Jim Carrey, Steve Harvey, Stephen Colbert, Bill Maher, and future "Daily Show" host Trevor Noah.

Caitlyn Jenner's first four children support her decision to live life publicly as a woman, but they're refusing to be part of her coming reality show for E! Entertainment.

According to the Vanity Fair cover story, Caitlyn's four children (all in their 30s) born from Caitlyn's two marriages previous to Kris Jenner — Cassandra, Burt, Brandon, and Brody Jenner — will not appear on the show because they fear that E! and the show's producers, Bunim/Murray, will sensationalize Caitlyn's story.

"They disagree with their father's decision to use not only the same production company that made 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' but many of the same people, including several original executive producers," the article said.

Hurt and disappointed by their decision, Caitlyn argued that as an executive producer she could keep it from straying away from her desire for the show to tell her story in a way that would be inspiring and informative. The four kids doubt that's possible.

"You go on E!'s website, the Bunim/Murray website, and you look at all the shows, every one of them is a circus," Brandon Jenner said during a meeting over hiring a new producer.

He continued: "With Bunim/Murray and E!, it's been the opposite of inspiration. Oh my God, we're diving into the lion's den — they're gonna make a show about the Jenners versus the Kardashians."

Certainly, bad blood does exist between the four children and Kris Jenner, according to the article.

They feel Kris not only excluded the Jenner side from "Keeping Up With the Kardashians," but further created distance between them and their father. They also had to watch as Caitlyn, then named Bruce, became an ideal dad to the Kardashian children, something they had always wanted from the often absentee dad they experienced growing up.

E!'s head of programming, Jeff Olde, told the magazine he hoped the Jenner side would change course upon seeing "the quality and tone" of the new reality show.

"It's not at all a Kardashian spinoff," he said. "We will not resort to spectacle. That doesn't mean we can't have fun with it."

Gay and married, Olde has been a gay-rights advocate for two decades. "This is so far beyond television, on a personal level," he insisted. "If I get one thing right in my professional career, it will be this."

Additionally, Bunim/Murray's executive vice president of development and programming insisted ratings were "not the goal.""It is to tell Bruce's story the way he wants to be told," he said.

The reality show started shooting in May and premieres Sunday, July 26, at 9 p.m. on E!

There are some minor spoilers ahead for "House of Cards" season 3.

One of the biggest surprises of the season 3 premiere of "House of Cards," which debuted on Netflix back in February, was an appearance by Stephen Colbert reprising his role of "The Colbert Report" host.

Comedy Central had previously aired the final episode of Colbert's talk show in December 2014, so it was a big shock to see him back as host one last time while grilling Frank Underwood (Kevin Spacey) over a controversial jobs' program.

During a talk at Vulture's second annual pop culture event Vulture Festival late Sunday afternoon, Vulture editor Gazelle Emami asked "House of Cards" showrunner Beau Willimon if the dialogue from Colbert on air was scripted. 

Willimon went into great detail telling the audience how the Colbert cameo came about and was filmed.

"I fully expected Stephen to say no. And, Stephen said yes, and I said, 'Look, you're going to be way funnier than anything I can write," said Willimon. "I will send you a sort of sample script of what the shape of the scene is going to look like." 

Willimon said he sent Colbert over about four pages of the scene along with material on Underwood's fictional jobs' program, America Works, and more. 

"I thought, if you guys can ad-lib then I don't care ... that'll be way more authentic than if we just script everything," Willimon continued.

Willimon said he later got on the phone with Colbert and his people who told him he thought they should use most of the script. He couldn't believe it. He said everyone reassured him there were some good jokes in the script.

"I'm going to change a few [jokes] if that's okay with you," Willimon recalled Colbert asking. 

The "House of Cards" showrunner was more than okay with that request. "Please! Please change whatever you want." 

Willimon told the crowd they ended up filming the scene between Kevin Spacey and Colbert at the actual Colbert set in front of a live audience.

"We said to them, 'All right, none of you can say anything.' We didn't tell them it was for the show. We said, 'We're going to do a couple of bits ... None of you don't ever tweet about this or talk about this at all," he explained. "Miraculously, none of the audience did for months and months."

One of the bits that was taped ended up being shot for "The Colbert Report." Willimon says the "House of Cards" team had nothing to do with it though. Willimon said what we ended up seeing in the season three premiere was part of an eight-minute set that was filmed using the Comedy Central show's cameras and crew. 

"There's a mixture of script and improv," said Willimon. "A lot of the things that Stephen said that were used were things that we kind of co-did together. The line about the lampreys sucking a crouton ... that was all him."

NOW WATCH: 70 people were injured while filming this movie with 100 untamed lions

When Jerry Seinfeld came up with the idea for “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee” — his unconventional internet talk show that will premiere its sixth season Wednesday on Crackle — he initially had trouble finding the right format and backers for the program.

In an interview during The Vulture Festival on Saturday, Seinfeld explained how he first went to comedian Louis C.K. for advice on how to release the show.

“I remember when I told the idea to Louis C.K., and I said, ‘I have this idea where I’ll hang out with comedians, and I’ll shoot it, and I’ll cut it together with music and coffee.’ And I asked, ‘What do I do with that?’”

Louis C.K., who broke new ground in the industry by releasing his comedy specials for $5 on his website, suggested that Seinfeld follow a similar payment format.

“He said, ‘You should charge people a dollar to watch.’ And I didn’t like that idea. Nobody knew what to do.”

Seinfeld then went to the offices of Facebook and YouTube and consulted with the Creative Artists Agency (CAA), but no one saw the show as a viable possibility at the time.

“I had this big meeting at CAA with these really smart digital people. It was like ten people in the room, people I had read about, never met: ‘This is the guy who meets with Zuckerberg every day. He’s way out there.’

And I said, ‘I have this idea, and it seems like as a person that people know, and I have an audience, people know me, so we can get people to check it out. And the internet seems like a pretty fluid medium… What do you think I could do?’ And they went, ‘I don’t know.’ No idea.”

The issue that most developers had with the show was its extended run time.

“They said, ‘If you’re over five minutes, nobody’s going to hang in there.’ Because the internet — five minutes is the maximum length of time. And we average nineteen minutes a viewer.”

After being rejected from sponsorship by Starbucks, "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee" eventually came together with the backing of car company Acura in a deal that allowed Seinfeld to write the featured ads himself. 

And Louis C.K. even ended up being a guest on "Comedians" in January 2014.

The show's sixth season will premiere on Wednesday at 11:30 p.m. on Crackle with an episode featuring Julia Louis-Dreyfus.

Guests for the rest of the season will include Jim Carrey, Steve Harvey, Stephen Colbert, Bill Maher, and future "Daily Show" host, Trevor Noah.

It was easy to write off the first season of "Halt and Catch Fire." Almost too easy. 

Part of it had nothing to do with the show itself—a drama about a group of misfits who band together to reverse engineer IBM's personal computer and inadvertently end up revolutionizing the industry.

Unfortunately for the show, the network it was on very quickly overshadowed the content of the series itself.

When "Halt and Catch Fire" was about to debut last summer, it was almost painfully obvious how much AMC needed a hit.

"Breaking Bad" had just concluded the year before after having its final season split across two years, and "Mad Men" was on hiatus, having done the same thing. It felt like the network was stalling for time, looking for a critical hit to pair with the immense commercial success of "The Walking Dead." 

In that climate, "Halt and Catch Fire" never really got a fair shake. Regardless of the actual intent behind the show, it was seen as AMC's attempt to build another "Mad Men," and the show's first few episodes seemed to confirm that: a period setting, a charismatic lead with a dark past, and a bit of sex thrown in for good measure. 

Visually, it lacked anything nearly as identifiable or iconic as the retro-cool-yet-arty vibe of "Mad Men," or the wide-angle loneliness of "Breaking Bad." It didn't have a lead character as charismatic as John Hamm's Don Draper, or as thoughtfully drawn as Brian Cranston's Walter White.

In fact, Lee Pace seems almost hamstrung in the early episodes of "Halt and Catch Fire," shoehorned into a role that doesn't seem to give him much to do other than be Don Draper via Patrick Bateman, only with less murder. If you've seen Pace in "Pushing Daisies," you'll find yourself wishing the show gave him more to do. 

Here's the good news though: It does, and over the 10 episodes of season one, the entire show starts to really gel and assert its own identity. And it becomes something quite good.

The problem with those early episodes—and the thing that might lead you to impulsively pass on the show—is that they do a pretty bad job of signaling what the show is actually about, or suggesting what its most compelling aspects might be. And Lee Pace's Joe MacMillan, isn't necessarily at the center of it all.

Instead, what makes "Halt and Catch Fire" truly fascinating is the way it chronicles the birth of consumer tech culture, and the huge role women had in the early tech scene—something that's almost entirely been written out of recent history in favor of celebrating men like Steve Jobs or Mark Zuckerburg. 

That the show improves so quickly over the course of such a brief season—it really figures itself out about six episodes into its 10-episode first season—is a pretty good sign of how quickly the show's creators caught on to what works and what doesn't.

Its second season, which premiered May 31 (and can be watched on AMC's website for free) is a bit of a soft reboot, with a renewed focus on two of the best characters on the show: Mackenzie Davis' Cameron Howe and Kerry Bishé's Donna Clark in new roles as leader's of Cameron's new startup, Mutiny. 

With all that said, the show isn't without flaws—it is yet another show about people being terrible to others in order to get what they want, and its narrow focus can make it seem extremely homogeneous—it's not going to win any diversity awards anytime soon (although D.B. Woodside of "24" fame makes a memorable appearance in the seventh episode). But it's early enough in the show's run—and improving quickly enough—to make the 11-episode catch-up binge worth considering.

It's title is still terrible, though.

NOW WATCH: This 50-year-old theory is the reason we all use iPhones and iPads

After a very rocky road for DC comic book drama "Constantine," showrunner Daniel Cerone has officially announced the series is dead.

"We're leaving behind wild and passionate fans who believe in and were moved by what we tried to do. To leave such a significant, dedicated and active fan base on the table — that's the real sadness," Cerone wrote on Twitter Sunday. "But our time as caretakers has ended." 

After being officially canceled by NBC last month due to very low ratings and amid a groundswell of support from the show's fans, producer Warner Bros. Television tried to shop it around for a new home. Apparently, that was unsuccessful.

"The cast and writers of 'Constantine' are being released from their contracts," Cerone said.

Here's the showrunner's full message:

I promised I'd share news when I had it -- sadly, that news is not good. The cast and writers of Constantine are being released from their contracts. The studio tried to find a new home for the show, for which we're forever grateful, but those efforts didn't pan out. I'm sorry, I wasn't provided any information on the attempts to sell the show elsewhere. All I can report is that the show is over.

Many ingredients went into this TV series. From the dedicated cast that breathed these characters to life, led by Matt Ryan as the comic-made-flesh embodiment of John Constantine, to the exceptionality talented crew that put unreal images on screen, to the original Hellblazer writers and artists who gifted us a universe.

As a general principle, writers don't choose a writing career to achieve stardom. Whatever demons or insecurities drove them to find freedom of expression through written words generally keeps writers comfortably obscure behind their words. Nor do people choose writing as a means to financial freedom. I'd venture to guess that most who set out to write professionally never receive a paycheck for their hopeful scribbles or key strokes.

In fact, nobody I know ever chose a writing career -- it chose them. You write because that's what you do. Like breathing, it just happens and you have to do it and you just hope that someday somebody out there notices what you're trying to say.

If that's the dream of writers, than the writers of Constantine lived the dream, because we're leaving behind wild and passionate fans who believe in and were moved by what we tried to do. To leave such a significant, dedicated and active fan base on the table -- that's the real sadness. You all deserve many years of the series we set out to make, and we're disappointed that we couldn't deliver that to you. The good news is that Constantine will live on for years in many more forms. But our time as caretakers has ended.

Thank you for letting us in.

The 2015 Tony Awards took place Sunday night at Radio City Music Hall in New York City.

But in case you didn't catch the telecast, here's a rundown of the moments that most captured the internet's attention.

Business Insider partnered with Amobee Brand Intelligence — a company that provides marketing insight and measures real-time content consumption across the internet — and Prime Visibility, a digital marketing agency with the tools to measure social media mentions, in order to bring you the most popular moments of the awards show.

While Amobee found that much of the internet's attention when to Sunday's big winners, including best play "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time," best play revival "Skylight," best musical "Fun Home," and best musical revival "The King and I," it's important to point out that those who didn't win also broke through.

At the young age of 11 years old, Sydney Lucas from "Fun Home" generated 3,213 tweets with her touching performance, despite losing in her category. And 82-year-old Chita Rivera also went home empty handed, but was mentioned in 1,773 around her performance from "The Visit." There was also 1,692 Tweets around Bradley Cooper who lost for "The Elephant Man." Although he didn't perform, the movie star has name recognition and some wondered if he had been snubbed.

Here are the moments that were most socialed from the Tonys, according to Prime Visibility:

1.) "Fun Home" winning best musical.

"Fun Home" is based on the complicated childhood relationship between lesbian writer Alison Bechdel and her father. It also doesn't hurt that "Seinfeld" co-creator Larry David and star Jason Alexander presented the award.

2.) The opening number 

Chenoweth and Cumming are adorable in their sing-song-y intro to the night's festivities and its nominees.

3.) "Fun Home" star Sydney Lucas performs "Ring Of Keys."

 The first Broadway musical with a lesbian protagonist, "Fun Home" centers in on love at first sight in this song.

4.) Ruthie Ann Miles wins featured actress in a musical for "The King and I."

 While reading her acceptance speech on her iPhone, the actress reminds the audience to "please recycle."

5.) "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time" winning best new play

A London import, "Curious Incident" follows the travails of a young man with Asperger's syndrome who's accused of killing a dog and looks to clear his name.

Classes will continue at Degrassi Community School.

Netflix has picked up Canadian teen drama "Degrassi: The Next Generation" after last week's announcement by TeenNick that the show would end after 14 seasons this summer.

Netflix, in partnership with Canada's Family Channel, will air 20 new episodes of the series in 2016, though it will be retitled "Degrassi: New Class." Many of the show's stars are expected to reprise their roles on the next chapter of the franchise.

“We are energized and excited to work with Family Channel as we tell stories for the new post-millennial teen cohort known as Generation Z, most of whom weren’t even born when 'Degrassi' returned in 2001,” show co-creator and executive producer Linda Schuyler said in a statement to EW.

Netflix, like other streaming video companies such as Hulu and Yahoo, has been building a reputation for saving cult series from cancelation. Shows Netflix has brought back from the dead include "Arrested Development,""The Killing," and "Star Wars: The Clone Wars."

Netflix didn't immediately respond to Business Insider's request for comment.

Dallas-area police came under intense public scrutiny after a YouTube video surfaced of an officer drawing his weapon and using excessive force while responding to a pool party disturbance.

The following Monday, Jon Stewart used the incident as the lead story for "The Daily Show," discussing the altercation in light of a long line of recent violent confrontations between police and citizens of color.

"Either way, this incident is progress," said "Daily Show" correspondent Jessica Williams —who hilariously wore a bikini over full body armor — to a confused Jon Stewart.

"A cop pulled his gun out, and then dragged a 14-year-old girl to the ground by her hair," said Stewart.

"Yeah, I know, white people always want to touch our hair, it's nothing new," joked Williams. Then came the brutal punchline: "It's progress because a cop pulled a gun on a bunch of black kids, and nobody is dead." 

That's a joke that is so true it hurts — but it doesn't get too heavy after that, because the pair get swept away in a discussion of diversity in "Harry Potter." 

The segment is broken into two pieces, which you can watch below.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is following up on the huge box-office opening for his disaster movie “San Andreas” with his first foray into serial television as the star and executive producer of HBO’s “Ballers.”

Johnson plays a former pro football player who becomes a financial advisor for current athletes. As the promos show, it looks like the series will give us a behind-the-scenes view of the stars we root for every Sunday during the season.

To pull this off, the need for authentic set dressing like NFL names and logos is crucial.

According to ProFootballTalk, which has already viewed multiple episodes, the show does use NFL licensed imagery.

“The first episode includes a scene from a conference room with a Packers logo on the wall. Later, one of the characters visits the fictional coach of the Miami Dolphins, who is wearing a hat with a Dolphins logo (the old logo, not the current one). The second episode includes multiple scenes at a Dolphins offseason practice, with the players wearing helmets bearing the Dolphins logo (the current one, not the old one).”

However, ProFootballTalk reports that "Ballers" does not have the consent of the NFL to use such logos.

“HBO is always mindful of other intellectual property owners, but in this context there is no legal requirement to obtain their consent,” HBO told the site, confirming that the NFL has no involvement with the series.

“Ballers” is the first TV series to have NFL logos without the consent of the league. It's also the first show to depict professional football since ESPN did it in 2003 with their series, “Playmakers.”

"Playmakers," which did not use any NFL properties (just like many movies that focus on pro football like “Any Given Sunday” or “The Replacements”), was canceled after one season due to pressure from the NFL, which was concerned with the show’s unfavorable depiction of the players off the field.

But HBO does already have one series in which the NFL is involved. Titled “Hard Knocks,” HBO cameras film the happenings of one team during their preseason camp.

BI’s request to HBO for comment was not returned., while the NFL has "no comment" regarding logos being used in "Ballers."

Watch the trailer for "Ballers" below, there's no featured logos, but we're not sure the NFL will be thrilled with how players appear to be portrayed:

Another Marvel hero is about to join the Netflix-verse: The company has announced Jon Bernthal of "The Walking Dead" will play Frank Castle, better known as The Punisher, in season two of "Daredevil."

In the comics, Castle — who has been previously portrayed by both Tom Jane and Ray Stevenson in "The Punisher" and "Punisher: War Zone," respectively — is a special forces vet who loses his family to violence brought about by organized crime. Believing the law doesn't significantly punish criminals, he begins a one-man war on crime, executing his targets so they can never hurt anyone again. 

The Punisher is a great fit for the darker, more violent tone of Netflix's "Daredevil," and a good foil for the series' version of Matt Murdock, who had a pretty...flexible approach to how much he was willing to hurt criminals. Introducing Castle into the hero's orbit will likely force him to further develop his ideals and cement his place as a street-level hero in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

This means we'll likely see a brutal showdown between the two characters, since Daredevil, while operating outside of the law, very much believes in it, and is certainly against killing. We don't know much about the plot of "Daredevil" season two, but if there's a Big Bad involved, then this also sets the stage for one of the greatest of action-movie tropes: The uneasy team-up. 

Pretty exciting stuff. 

Season 2 of "Daredevil" will arrive on Netflix in 2016.

YouTube star and judge of Lifetime's "Project Runway: Threads" Ingrid Nilsen came out of the closet on Tuesday.

"There's something that I want you to know," Nilsen, 26, said on YouTube. "And that something is I'm gay. It feels so good to say that."

Nilsen revealed the news to her more than 3.3 million YouTube subscribers in the emotional video on Tuesday.

"You have been a part of my life for the past, almost six years and this is a really big part of my life," she said. "I want to sit down and talk to you and have this conversation just like I've had this conversation with friends and people who are close to me in my life."

In the video, she discusses early experiences of feeling different, being confused when called a lesbian by a classmate, what it was like to date men, and how her family and community took the news.

"This is not something that I chose," she explained. "This something that's a part of me and has always been a part of me."

Known by her YouTube nickname "Miss Glamorazzi," Nilsen has made a name for herself as a beauty, fashion, and health food vlogger.

One of the biggest pop culture phenomena to come out of the United States in recent years has been “The Walking Dead,” a story about people struggling to stay alive in a world full of zombies trying to eat them.

Similarly, one of the biggest pop culture phenomena to come out of Japan in recent years has been “Attack on Titan,” a story about people struggling to stay alive in a world full of giant, naked, almost-human looking monsters trying to eat them.

Turns out that if you want to dominate pop culture, all you have to do is create a franchise about things that really want to eat people.

"Attack on Titan" has been slowly creeping its way across pop culture for the past five years. It's been making its mark on fan conventions, Super Bowl ads, theme parks, and soon, international cinema. The internet is filled with viralmemes and GIFs of the series. In time, even Hollywood — notoriously slow to capitalize on popular foreign properties — might want to get in on the action.

So what is it?

“Attack On Titan,” like “The Walking Dead,” was originally a popular comic book (or manga). Created by Hajime Isayama in 2009, the “Titan” manga tells the story of a world overrun by Titans, giant humanoid monsters that are are 3-15 meters tall ...

... and eat humans. 

Following the appearance of the Titans, humanity has retreated to a single giant city, divided by three concentric walls, each with a city district between them.

For a long time, the walls — much taller than any Titan — kept everyone safe and complacent. Then, a 60-meter “Colossal Titan” appeared, knocked a hole in the outer wall, and all hell broke loose.

The manga was immensely popular, with its collected editions selling record numbers. But that was only the start of the “Attack on Titan” craze. The franchise truly took off four years later, when an anime adaptation of the series debuted in the spring of 2013, with an English translation launching one year later.

Like “The Walking Dead,” “Attack on Titan” is bleak, dour entertainment. It is an exploration of humanity at its most desperate, and puts every single one of its characters through the wringer. It’s absolutely riveting, and kind of horrifying — there’s a grotesqueness to the Titans’ design, the way they’re human-shaped but with frighteningly wide jaws that make them appear to have evil grins.

And while death by traditional zombies isn’t exactly fun to watch, there’s something exceptionally unsettling about human-shaped giants just straight up popping people into their grinning mouths like bruschetta.

The plot centers around Eren Yaeger, a teenager who loses his mother when the Titans attack. He soon devotes his life to fighting them with the city's army — first to repel them from the city's borders, then out in the wilderness while on a mission to learn more about them.

His fellow soldiers are mostly recent recruits like him, and their inexperience makes the show both more interesting and devastating. They make a lot of mistakes, and they lose a lot of friends. It's gut-wrenching stuff. 

There’s also a mystery at the heart of the “Titan” mythology: Where did the Titans come from? And why is Eren important to understanding them?  This last bit is incredibly (almost frustratingly) tantalizing, as game-changing revelations are doled on a steady enough drip that mind-blowing twists unfold just frequently enough to make you willing to put up with the series’ sometimes-frustrating pace.

(This is a frequent occurrence in anime based on manga – the plot is stretched out to last longer and avoid burning through the source material too fast a la “Game of Thrones.” “Attack on Titan” does this best when it gives you more time to spend with the characters, adding an episode not in the manga about Eren Yaeger and his peers training to join the army. It also does it poorly, when said characters endlessly debate over a predicament instead of actually doing anything.)

It also doesn’t hurt that the soldier’s uniforms are really cool looking, and a big hit with cosplaying teens.

There’s actually a pretty clever rationale for all that cool gear — they use grappling hooks and razor sharp blades to outmaneuver the Titans like a bunch of ninja Spider-Men:

While we won’t see a second season of “Attack on Titan” until 2016, three years after the first, there’s still plenty "Attack on Titan" in the works to keep the hype train rolling. Besides the manga (which is still ongoing) and two feature-length adaptations of the anime’s first season, there is:

A video game for Nintendo 3DS.

 A live-action film:

A Subaru commercial:

 A theme park attraction:

 Marvel Comics even did a crossover which debuted in May in the US:

"Attack on Titan" is pretty much steamrolling its way through pop culture, and it's well worth the hype. 

Good thing you have a year to catch up.
