Because Pinocchio needs all the help he can get to be the “brave, truthful and unselfish” boy he was meant to be.Ī week before Prime Video becomes the exclusive home for Thursday Night Football, and three nights before the launch of Sunday Night Football, NBC airs the traditional kickoff game, with defending Super Bowl champs the Los Angeles Rams welcoming the Buffalo Bills to Inglewood’s SoFi Stadium. (Several new songs were written by Alan Silvestri and Glen Ballard.) The cast also includes a robust Keegan-Michael Key as the theatrically foxy “Honest” John, Luke Evans as the fearsome Coachman and Lorraine Bracco as a newly created character, the trusty seagull Sofia. (Freeze the frame to catch all the Disney easter eggs amid his wall of prized cuckoo clocks.) Benjamin Evan Ainsworth provides the voice of the adorable Pinocchio, with Cynthia Erivo warbling “When You Wish Upon a Star” as the magical Blue Fairy. Robert Zemeckis ( Who Framed Roger Rabbit) directs this charming live action/CGI-animated remake of the 1940 Disney favorite, with Tom Hanks perfectly sympathetic as the lonely woodcarver Geppetto. Former Cowboys coach Jason Garrett is reportedly a top candidate to replace Drew Brees on NBC’s “Sunday Night Football” pregame show, too.“I’m not one to pass judgment on what’s real,” quips a CGI Jiminy Cricket (voiced by a folksy Joseph Gordon-Levitt) in a new version of the classic about a wooden puppet’s journey toward becoming a real boy. Tom Brady has reached a massive 10-year deal to join Fox as a broadcaster whenever he retires. Both Troy Aikman and Joe Buck are set to run “Monday Night Football” at ESPN this fall, and Greg Olsen and Kevin Burkhardt are going to replace them at Fox and call Super Bowl LVII in February. The news is the latest in a busy offseason for the NFL broadcasting world.


Former players Richard Sherman, Marshawn Lynch and Ryan Fitzpatrick have all been linked to potential pregame coverage roles with Amazon, and both ABC’s Kaylee Hartung and Bleacher Report’s Taylor Rooks are reportedly being considered for a sideline reporting role. NBC’s Al Michaels and ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit are going to lead its broadcast team in the booth while they continue in their respective roles, and former Chiefs tight end Tony Gonzalez is expected to join Thompson on the pregame show.Īmazon is still finalizing its broadcast team for the season. Thompson is the latest media member to join Amazon’s NFL coverage for this season, which marks the start of its exclusive deal for “Thursday Night Football” games.

The longtime Fox Sports host will continue in that role this season alongside her new gig at Amazon.Īmazon, according to Marchand, failed to reach an agreement with Kay Adams, the former “Good Morning Football” host on the NFL Network, about hosting the pregame show. Thompson is the current host of “Fox NFL Kickoff” on Sunday mornings during the NFL season.
