Lena Headey made the first season of Beacon 23 quite bearable, and her absence was felt throughout season 2. It seemed like season 2 was repeating the same things over and over again, up to the point that it became irritating. I mean, there wasn’t a single thing in the entirety of the second season that was worth our time. Milan’s AI, Aleph, was repeating the same dialogue like a broken record. Harmony, on the other hand, had been the struggling AI since the beginning, with a messy character transformation in the end that doesn’t make any sense. And Halan Kai Nelson is still down with his Ptsd, the symptoms of which started to appear more in the viewers than the character itself. I am glad Beacon 23 season 2 ended, and I will surely elaborate on its finale in the best possible manner I can.

Canadian actor-brothers Shamier Anderson (John Wick 4) and Stephan James (If Beale Street Could Talk) had their stars unveiled on Scarborough’s Walk of Fame. The men were raised in the marginalized Toronto community by a single mother who emigrated to Canada from Jamaica.
“It’s really humbling and flattering to receive something like this in my hometown, at a mall where I grew up, where I shopped, it’s pretty cool,” Anderson told The Hollywood Reporter.
The local Walk of Fame honor for the fast-rising Hollywood stars is more than an exercise in collective positive thinking for an inner-city neighborhood that earlier brought to the world celebrities like Mike Myers, Jim Carrey and The Weeknd.
The brothers are at work via their Bay Mills Studios production banner — named after the community housing project they grew up in Scarborough — on a landmark TV drama set in the inner-city community that is their home away from Hollywood.

Amazon is looking to increase the amount of streaming ads it offers, and its streaming platform MGM+ could be next to see ads invade its interface.
As streaming services go, MGM+ tends to skate under the radar a bit. The streamer is owned by Amazon, but is typically an afterthought when discussing that company’s other streaming platforms like Prime Video, Freevee and even Twitch. In fact, during Amazon’s conference call with Wall Street analysts to discuss its quarterly earnings report, MGM+ was not even mentioned by Amazon executives. Nevertheless, subscribers would be smart to anticipate big changes to the streamer in the near future, specifically in its decision to thus far not to include ads on the platform.
Amazon CFO Brian Olsavsky told analysts his company wants to increase advertising in its streaming properties. Prime Video converted all customers to ad-supported unless they pay to go ad-free on Jan.

The first season of sci-fi thriller “Beacon 23,” starring Lena Headey (“Game of Thrones”) and Stephan James (“If Beale Street Could Talk”), reached its conclusion Sunday with MGM+ dropping the eight-episode season’s final two installments. Showrunner Glen Mazzara spoke with TheWrap to break down the first season’s arc, where the show’s heading in Season 2 and more.
The following contains Spoilers for the finale of Season 1.
Lena Headey’s Aster suffered what appears to be a fatal injury in the Season 1 finale, when cultist Keir (Marc Menchaca) shot her with a concussive gun that knocked her back. Her head hit a railing and she fell, eyes open, apparently dead — though this is science fiction, so audiences will have to wait to see what comes next.
“There are obviously forces beyond her control, that have been affecting her — as she learns, they’ve been affecting her her entire life,...

In the previous episode of Beacon 23, Keir entered the space station with his two other terrorist accomplices, Saldana and Finch, to take over Beacon and find the artifact. Halan left the space station, boarding Amboyna, while Keir tried to use Aster to understand the true purpose of the artifact. Even though Finch and Saldana didn’t trust Keir, he knew that Aster was the key to this mysterious artifact, and probably by communicating with the relics, Aster would end up being a messiah to save humanity. Bart, unable to recall his previous data, which had been deleted by Solomon, decided to kill himself. In the end, Bart realized that, despite being an AI, he would always be under the control of human beings, which prompted him to make a tragic decision. In the season finale of Beacon 23, the space station’s fate was in jeopardy as the bossman,...

MGM+ has renewed sci-fi mystery thriller series Beacon 23 for a second season. The eight-episode season 2 will premiere on the streaming service in April. The news is not a surprise. The series already had been renewed by Spectrum and AMC, where it originally had been greenlit, and MGM+ is now formally committing to air it.
Starring Stephan James and Lena Headey in Season 1, Beacon 23, based on the best-selling book by Hugh Howey, is created and executive produced by Zak Penn.
Set in the farthest reaches of the Milky Way, Season 1 followed Aster (Headey), a government agent, and Halan (James), a stoic ex-military man, whose fates became entangled after they found themselves trapped together inside one of many Beacons that served as a lighthouse for intergalactic travelers. In Season Two, Beacon 23 is now little more than a prison with Aleph onboard, and The Artifact provides more questions than answers.

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for the Beacon 23 Season 1 finale.] Did Beacon 23 just kill off Aster (Lena Headey)?! It certainly looked that way in the finale, but remember what we seen from her all season. In the finale, Aster decides she’ll go into the artifact and receive the message that she’ll share with everyone — humans and AI — and Halan (Stephan James) agrees to join her, for 24 hours and that’s it. But Keir (Marc Menchaca) says he can’t let her do that and shoots her. Is she dead? Or will her connection to the mysterious artifact that has drawn in quite a few people save her? “I will just say that I know the audience is going to have questions about, is Aster really dead? Those questions will be answered in a Season 2, if we run Season 2,” executive producer Glen Mazzara told TV Insider. “But one of the things that is fun about making the show,...

In the sixth episode of Beacon 23, the origin story of Beacon 23 introduced us to Dr. Ree Avalon, the first beacon keeper and the one who gave Bartholomew the nickname Bart. Avalon was the first human from Earth to see the artifact, created by the space silicates swimming around a light. Avalon tried to unravel the mystery surrounding the artifact, which caused her severe hallucinations. It even led Avalon to leave the space station to embark on a journey into infinite space to decode the source of this miracle. However, Avalon lost her life in the process. After Avalon, when a couple became the keepers of Beacon 23, they accidentally became pregnant and chose to give birth to the child, keeping it a secret from Isa. This child, named Parsim, grew up to be Aster Calyx, whose parents had to escape from the space station in order to evade the capture of Isa.

Beacon 23 episode 6 has just been released and introduced us to a whole new set of characters and another origin story of the space station from back when Bartholomew was not even nicknamed Bart. The latest episode of Beacon 23 revealed the first beacon keeper, Avalon, who was the first human counterpart of Bart. Surprisingly, we also get a background story of Aster Clayx, who was brought up in this space station, having a connection with the space silicates, which turned out to be some alien beings roaming around in space. Let’s discuss this connection between Aster and the silicates to determine why these space minerals were significant in Aster’s life.

In the third episode of Beacon 23, we saw Halan being attacked by another Qta agent, Coley, who was Aster’s former lover. To save Halan, Aster killed Coley. After that, episode 4 surprisingly brought some new characters into the narrative, introducing us to one of the first Beacon keepers, Sophie, and the creator of Beacon, Milan Aleph. After Milan’s tragic death, his transcendental intelligence remained in the space station, but Sophie didn’t quite get along with it as she did with the real Milan. In this latest episode of Beacon 23, we are brought back to the present timeline, where we can see the aftermath of Coley’s death in Beacon.
Aster was on a guilt trip, so she was ready to surrender herself to Qta for the murder she committed. But her AI, Harmony, asked her to reconsider. She wanted Aster to give an explanation, saying that she killed Coley in self-defense,...

In the third episode of Beacon 23, we witnessed another death in Beacon. An official of Qta, Coley, who had sneaked into Beacon in search of the precious space minerals, was eventually stabbed by her colleague/lover Aster. The episode concluded with Aster saving Halan’s life, leaving us hoping that we will see their budding romance or friendship in future episodes. However, the fourth episode of Beacon 23 comes with a surprise, with completely new characters. We saw that Sophie, whose specialization was on various kinds of fabrics found in space, was the actual master of Bart. This episode is probably going to be the origin story of Beacon 23, which was initially supervised by Sophie and Bart. Let’s see how Sophie was connected with the core narrative of the series.

There’s a specific picture that comes up time and time again in MGM+’s Beacon 23, of a lone man standing just outside a lighthouse as a massive wave comes crashing from behind. Whether the man makes it inside, whether he drowns, why he was out there in the first place are left up for the viewer to imagine, based on their own hopes or fears. But the not-knowing casts a certain mood in itself.
It’s a fitting prop for a series that similarly proves more interested in raising questions than answering them, and that likewise suggests the uncertainty might be the point. Its endless searching can prove frustrating at times, particularly when the sci-fi drama stumbles over basic flaws in its storytelling. But those with enough curiosity and patience to wait out its rough patches — and those with a taste for cerebral sci-fi — may find themselves falling under its plaintive spell.
