BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — Jerry Seinfeld says he'd rather ride classic cars and sip coffee with comedy's best than reboot his uber-successful “Seinfeld” television series.
Seinfeld said in an interview Wednesday night that bringing back his eponymous sitcom that recently celebrated its 30-year anniversary would be “egomaniacal.” The comedian says he is focused on learning more about the “sharpest minds in comedy” through his Netflix series “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee.”
The 11th season premieres Friday on the streaming service featuring Eddie Murphy. The season also includes other comedians including Jamie Foxx, Martin Short, Ricky Gervais, Bridget Everett and more.
Seinfeld launched “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee” on Sony's Crackle in 2012. The series was moved to Netflix two years ago after the comedian signed a massive deal with the streaming service.
NEW YORK — Adrian McKinty's “The Chain” is a breakout hit for an author who two years ago was driving an Uber.
McKinty's thriller has just been published and has already reached Amazon.com's top 100 list. The novel tells the story of a woman whose daughter was kidnapped and who must in turn kidnap someone to get her back.
The novel arrived with blurbs from Stephen King, Dennis LeHane and many others. Film rights have been acquired by Paramount Pictures in a reported seven-figure deal. “The Chain” has also been translated into more than 20 languages.
McKinty, 51, is a late bloomer who once thought seriously of giving up on writing. He is new to most readers of “The Chain,” but he has been an acclaimed crime author for more than a decade.
