Last night, The Walking Dead dealt with the heavily marketed departure of series star Andrew Lincoln in a startling, unexpected way. The way the episode handled the event didn’t make sense from a story or audience perspective, but a story from The New York Times clarifies that it did make sense from a business standpoint, because the series’ network, AMC, is preparing a trilogy of Walking Dead spin-off movies that will bring Lincoln back in his role as series star Rick Grimes.

Kate Middleton has not been named the “new queen,” nor has Prince William been tapped to be the next king, despite a report. Gossip Cop can correct this claim, which is on the cover of one of those week’s tabloids. We’re told it’s not true.

According to In Touch, “multiple insiders“ contend Queen Elizabeth has “hand-selected her successors, and it isn’t her son Prince Charles” and his second wife Camilla Parker Bowles. The tabloid’s supposed “source” maintains, “She’d rather pass on the throne to the new generation of royals, Kate and William.” And the magazine’s tipster asserts their “coronation is going to be a $500 million event.”

Proving again that audiences matter more than critics, Fox’s Freddy Mercury biopic Bohemian Rhapsody dominated North American box offices this weekend with a solid $50 million take, industry tracker Exhibitor Relations reported Sunday.
