The following weeks will see Brendan Gleeson and Megan Thee Stallion arrive in Studio 8H. Also, get the details about Inside Amy Schumer making a comeback after a six-year hiatus (the new season will arrive on Paramount+ on Oct. 20), and all about Tiffany Haddish's legal victory as the child molestation suit against her and Aries Spears is dropped by the plantiff.

Also, The Connor's Lecy Goranson shares her love of The Bear. Plus, we head back to the classroom for the season 2 premiere of Abbott Elementary, Diego Luna makes his return as Cassian Andor for the latest Disney+ Star Wars series, and Kaley Cuoco and Pete Davidson put a new spin on the classic romcom Meet Cute in Peacock's new movie.
