TV News Roundup: 'Melania' Series, Trump on '60 Minutes'

Previously on Matt's Inside Line.... I brought news of the live-action Stranger Things prequel, Nobody Wants This Season 4, and ABC's midseason plan (minus any Grey's Anatomy spinoff).

I also published a juicy CIA Q&A with Nick Gehlfuss and a recap of Jamie Reagan's first (and unexpectedly contentious) Boston Blue visit.

Here's a handy catch-up on other Friday headlines.

◼️ For all the books Amazon sells, you'd think they know how to read a room. But nope. Melania: The Series — promising "never-before-told stories" and "unprecedented insight into [first lady] Melania Trump’s life, including the extraordinary days immediately following the 47th Presidential Inauguration" — will premiere on Prime Video Friday, Nov. 20. The two-part series is comprised of additional footage that director Brett Ratner captured whilst filming the feature-length documentary Melania, which followed its subject through the 20 days leading up to her husband's inauguration (and wound up reaping less than $17 million worldwide against a $40 mil budget). Watch a trailer...?

◼️ Speaking of President Donald Trump... CBS' 60 Minutes this Sunday will feature his first sit-down interview since Tuesday night's eventful midterm elections. Trump will discuss (or at least be asked about) the Republican losses, potential congressional investigations, the wars in Iran and Ukraine, the economy, and more.

◼️ Will Adam Driver reprise his role as Adam Sackler in the recently announced, five-episode Girls revival? In a word, "No," he told CinemaBlend, "but I wish them the best of luck." (If you're curious about the tone of his terse turn-down, as I was, there's video of his response on Instagram.) Thus far, series creator Lena Dunham, Allison Williams, Jemima Kirke, Zosia Mamet and Andrew Rannells are confirmed to appear in the award-winning HBO comedy's encore.
