Guilty Party
Kate Beckinsale has been tapped for the lead in Guilty Party, Paramount+’ half-hour dark comedy from Funny or Die. She replaces Isla Fisher, who was originally cast in the role but pulled out over pandemic-related circumstances.
Written by Rebecca Addelman (Dead to Me) and to be directed by Trent O’Donnell (No Activity), Guilty Party stars Beckinsale as Beth Baker, a discredited journalist desperate to salvage her career by latching on to the story of a young mother sentenced to life in prison for maiming and murdering her husband, crimes she claims she didn’t commit. In trying to uncover the truth, Beth finds herself in over her head as she contends with Colorado gun-smugglers, clickbait culture, the doldrums of marriage and her own tarnished past.

He said unlike previously where government ignores the minority, their voices will now count very much. Where the figures are close, government is forced to be very consultative and that promotes democracy. This is because when a ruling government has the majority, you turn to ignore the minority and so with goodwill on all sides even if the margin is one (between both sides) it will help in our democracy.
