Can Disney Keep Its Hot Streak Alive With "A Wrinkle in Time?"
"Black Panther" is still breaking records, but Disney is on to the next blockbuster as "A Wrinkle in Time" hits theaters. MadameNoire's Brande Victorian joins Cheddar to discuss whether the studio can keep its hot streak alive with the fantasy movie. Critics are praising the film's visuals, but the story isn't going over quite as well.
A new report from The Daily Beast suggests the NYPD may be getting closer to arresting Harvey Weinstein. Victorian speaks to why it's up to the Manhattan District Attorney to put the move in motion. The managing editor says putting the embattled producer behind bars would be a major vote of confidence for the Me Too movement.
Michael B. Jordan is turning Frances McDormand's Oscar speech into action. The actor's production company will start implementing the inclusion rider contractual clause that went viral after the Academy Awards. Victorian reveals what this move means to increasing diversity on Hollywood sets.
Tech apprenticeship platform Multiverse became a unicorn with a $1.7 billion valuation, after raising $220 million in a Series D round. As companies across the country face challenges in hiring and retaining tech talent, Multiverse says it's trying to offer a solution with a new way to train and hire workers that can serve as an alternative to college and corporate training. Sophie Ruddock, VP and GM North America of Multiverse, joins Cheddar News' Closing Bell to discuss.
Cheddar's Kristen Scholer caught up with all-time NBA great Shaquille O'Neal in his hometown of Newark, NJ, working with Icy Hot to repair rundown basketball courts around the country. The Hall of Famer also spoke about the current NBA finals between the Boston Celtics and Golden State Warriors and had a lot of praise for the Warrior's guard Stephen Curry. "He's the greatest shooter of all time. I had a conversation with Stephen A. [Smith], where does he rank? He's a special player. He has his own category," Shaq said.
