04:30 - UnREAL - Season Finale - THR Post Mortem
The show spent the season building to both its finale and Everlasting’s finale. How long did you know that this is how you wanted to end it?
Noxon: The [Everlasting] ending was one of the hardest things for us because we really pushed our [limits] in the season — we dropped people off buildings already — and it was like, "Where do we go?" and also, "What’s the right satisfying ending?" We went back and forth but I think what we ended up with was a really good expression of Adam getting what he deserves as a player and a manwhore and everybody getting the reality of the situation as opposed to the fantasy. Both Quinn and Rachel were going to be hoisted on their own petards. They were going to fall for their own crap and that was going to go south on them real bad. The idea that Adam would end up marrying nobody came out late in the game.
The love triangle became a big part of the show, but now, between the Adam debacle and Jeremy’s public rejection, it’s a bit in disarray.
Shapiro: The interesting thing is that when Shiri found out there was going to be a love triangle, she was actually really concerned because she’s played a lot of love triangles. She was like, "Oh no, I don’t want to be a love triangle girl anymore, I thought this was a different kind of show," and what we assured her is that more than anything these guys are blank slates she’s projecting all of her issues on. She fantasizes one guy is “Prince Charming” and one guy is “Good Ole Boy” and she’s playing with them like dolls.
Noxon: The great thing is that you have people almost playing their own version of Everlasting but with the mole people [behind the scenes] … The joke was that Rachel ends up winning Everlasting. It’s the best season finale ever, except it didn’t feel honest if she ran off with Adam. We ended up feeling very encouraged that people grasped on to the game within the game.
Shapiro: We can really all relate to that fantasy, and we really worked on that last scene [in the finale], where [Adam] asks her to run away, to just to make it the most irresistible thing. [Rachel gets] fairy dust in her eyes. What girl doesn’t want to hear: "I can give you the world if you let me, so let me."

03:30 - MOVIES: Dungeons & Dragons - In Development at Warner Bros.
A movie based on the widely popular game “Dungeons & Dragons” is in the works at Warner Bros., the studio announced Monday, 10 months after a trial over who owned the rights to the fantasy game ended.
After months of negotiation, Warner Bros., Hasbro’s Allspark Pictures and Sweetpea Entertainment said they had come to an undisclosed arrangement, ending the 2-year-old lawsuit, and are moving forward with the feature film franchise.
David Leslie Johnson (“The Conjuring 2”) has already written the screenplay set in the “D&D” fantasy world of Forgotten Realms. Hasbro’s Brian Goldner and Stephen Davis, Sweetpea Entertainment’s Courtney Solomon and Allan Zeman, and Roy Lee (“The Lego Movie”) are producing the high-priority project.
“This is far and away the most well-known brand in fantasy, which is the genre that drives the most passionate film followings,” said Greg Silverman, Warner Bros. president of creative development and worldwide production. “‘D&D’ has endless creative possibilities, giving our filmmakers immense opportunities to delight and thrill both fans and moviegoers new to the property.”
“We are thrilled that this beloved property can finally make its way to the big screen after 20 years, and that it can be realized by Warner Bros., which has been responsible for the biggest fantasy franchises over the past two decades,” said Solomon of Sweetpea Entertainment.
