Actress and singer Janelle Monáe is set to star in and produce the Universal Pictures adaptation of Tanya Smith’s heist memoir Never Saw Me Coming: How I Outsmarted the FBI and the Entire Banking System—and Pocketed $40 Million.
Monáe will produce the project about an unsuspecting woman who hatches a clever white-collar scheme that manipulates the U.S. banking system out of millions through Wondaland Pictures’ first-look deal with Universal, with Smith to executive produce.
When the FBI finally cornered Smith, they refused to believe a black woman could be the architect of sophisticated financial crimes, as they smugly asserted “these are not the kind of crimes black people are smart enough to commit,” according to a synopsis from the producers. For her financial wrongdoing as detailed in her memoir, Smith completed a harsh prison sentence, but today has become an advocate for prison reform, racial justice, and economic equality.
Monáe has screen credits that include Moonlight, Hidden Figures, Antebellum, Harriet, Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, and the Amazon series Homecoming. The Grammy-nominated singer/rapper, songwriter, arranger and producer has album credits like The ArchAndroid (2010), The Electric Lady (2013), Dirty Computer (2018) and The Age of Pleasure (2023).
The deal for Never Saw Me Coming follows earlier Universal Pictures’ acquisition of book adaptation rights for Britney Spears’ memoir The Woman in Me, Colleen Hoover’s Reminders of Him, Percival Everett’s James, Stacey Abrams’ Rules of Engagement, and Mark A. Bradley’s Blood Runs Coal: The Yablonski Murders and the Battle for the United Mine Workers of America.
Monáe is represented by Wondaland Management and WME. Smith is represented by Yorn Levine.

Buckle up — there’s more extracting to be done.
The already larger-than-life Extraction universe is expanding with a new series. Omar Sy (Lupin, The Intouchables) has been tapped to lead the mission that will get your blood pumping in eight heart-racing episodes.
The high-octane Extraction films — based on the graphic novel Ciudad by Ande Parks, Joe Russo and Anthony Russo — explore perilous search-and-rescue missions around the globe. The new action thriller, set in the same world, follows a mercenary (played by Sy), who’s trapped between warring factions and ruthless killers as he navigates a dangerous mission to save hostages in Libya. The series delves into the emotional struggles of conflicted and flawed characters, each facing trauma, betrayal, and life-or-death choices.
Glen Mazzara (The Shield, The Walking Dead) will serve as writer and showrunner. Sam Hargrave, who directed the Chris Hemsworth–led film Extraction and its sequel Extraction 2, will executive produce. Additional executive producers include Anthony Russo, Joe Russo, Angela Russo-Otstot, Scott Nemes, and Chris Castaldi for AGBO.
“I’m a very lucky man,” Mazzara said of joining the project. “Omar is a huge talent. Joe, Anthony, and Angela have welcomed me into the AGBO family. The team at Netflix is truly the best I’ve ever worked with. Very lucky indeed.”
“AGBO is grateful to collaborate once again with our partners at Netflix, this time to expand the Extraction universe into a new medium,” said Russo-Otstot. “We were inspired to tell more stories in this global franchise, further exploring heroic yet flawed mercenaries who illuminate universal themes. Glen Mazzara truly excels at sophisticated and nuanced explorations in the genre series space, and we are thrilled to have the exceptional talents of Omar Sy at the center of our action-packed, multi-narrative mission.”
The new Extraction series continues the Russo brothers and AGBO’s partnership with Netflix, which launched Extraction in 2020, the sequel Extraction 2 in 2023, and The Gray Man starring Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans, and Ana de Armas. The Electric State, an adaptation of the illustrated novel by Simon Stålenhag starring Millie Bobby Brown and Chris Pratt, crackles onto the screen March 14th.

Son Demarcus Crawley (Goolsby) is the holier-than-thou assistant pastor and the eldest son who has ambitions to succeed his father as Pastor. But not if Crawley has any say in it.

Online personality Tasha K and a former personal assistant to Kevin Hart have reached a settlement with the comedian in his defamation suit against the pair that stemmed from an interview the aide had with Tasha K.
Hart’s attorney filed court papers on Friday with Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Holly J. Fujie notifying her of the accord involving Hart, Tasha K, and ex-Hart personal aide Miesha Shakes. No terms were revealed and the court papers only stated that the parties are “working on the language of their settlement agreements.”
On Tuesday, Fujie vacated the scheduled April 7 trial.
Hart’s suit, originally filed in December 2023 and amended a month later, involved a social media conversation between Shakes and Tasha K, whose real name is Latasha Transrina Kebe.
In their court papers, the 45-year-old Hart’s attorneys maintained their client and his company, K. Hart Enterprises Inc., suffered “irreparable harm from the continued publication and broadcasting of the interview and related content, which includes defamatory statements, including false statements regarding Hart’s supposed criminal conduct, which are damaging to his reputation and thereby to his livelihood as a performer.”
Hart’s lawyers maintained the comedian and Shakes had a non-disclosure agreement and that Shakes breached the accord, although Shakes contended the contract took advantage of her mental state at the time. Hart’s attorneys also asserted that Shakes and Kebe sought money in order to keep quiet.
In a sworn declaration, Shakes maintained she was unaware of the NDA’s terms.
“At the time of signing the NDA, I was suffering from significant mental health issues and was under considerable financial distress due to my unemployment,” Shakes said. “Hart was fully aware of my ongoing health issues and critical need for health insurance and funds, as I could not afford health insurance or my prescribed medications.”
Shakes further said that when she signed the NDA she was unaware that it included a confidentiality clause because Hart told her it was a “mutual release” that would benefit the plaintiff and her family.
Hart’s attorneys also contended that Shakes and Kebe sought $250,000 in exchange for keeping quiet.
But Shakes contended she was not involved in an extortion plot against Hart and that her use of the word “charges” during the interview pertained to potential civil, not criminal allegations.
Kebe has a history of publishing and broadcasting defamatory content about public figures and was recently found liable for nearly $4 million in a defamation suit brought by Cardi B, according to Hart’s attorneys’ pleadings.
In a sworn declaration, Hart says Shakes admitted during the interview that she obtained some of the information she discussed by secretly listening through the walls to private conversations at Hart’s offices.
Hart denied Shakes’ assertion that he made a secret video recording of a romantic liaison he had with a woman in a Las Vegas hotel room in 2017, and he additionally says she wrongfully divulged information about his interactions with his wife after the hotel encounter became public.
Hart was part of the halftime entertainment in Super Bowl LIX on Feb. 9.
Mindy Kaling’s new comedy show, “Not Suitable for Work,” has officially been greenlit at Hulu.
The half-hour, single-camera comedy series, which was previously titled “Murray Hill,” has received a series order at the streamer, Hulu announced Tuesday. The order came about 10 months after the show landed at Hulu following a competitive bidding process.
“Not Suitable for Work” follows five work-obsessed 20somethings striving for professional success and, if they have time, personal happiness in Manhattan’s most glamorous neighborhood, Murray Hill, according to the official logline.
Kaling created the series, and Charlie Grandy (“The Sex Lives of College Girls,” “The Mindy Project”) is set to serve as showrunner. Kaling and Grandy will executive produce alongside Howard Klein, who executive produces for 3 Arts Entertainment.
“Not Suitable for Work” is produced by Warner Bros. Television, where both Kaling and Grandy are under overall deals.
The news comes as Kaling gears up to launch “Running Point” on Netflix in late February, which she created alongside Ike Barinholtz and David Stassen. Kaling’s “The Sex Lives of College Girls” also recently wrapped up its third season on Max, though it has yet to receive the green light for a fourth installment.
“Not Suitable for Work” reunites Kaling and Hulu after the streamer picked up “The Mindy Project” following its cancellation at Fox for the final three seasons of its six-season run. In “The Mindy Project,” Kaling starred as Dr. Mindy Lahiri alongside Barinholtz, Chris Messina, Ed Weeks, Xosha Roquemore, Adam Pally, and Beth Grant. Kaling also worked with Hulu on “Four Weddings and a Funeral.”
“Not Suitable for Work” joins Hulu’s slate of comedies alongside “Only Murders in the Building,” the upcoming “Chad Powers” and “King of the Hill.”
