Netflix has dropped the official trailer for its original comedy “Mr. Iglesias,” available to stream on June 21.
Comedian Gabriel Iglesias stars in this classroom romp as a good-natured public high school teacher who works at his alma mater. He takes on teaching gifted but misfit kids to not only save them from being “counseled out” by a bully bureaucrat Assistant Principal, but also to help them unlock their full potential.
DEALS
The Bezos Family Foundation and Fred Rogers Productions are extending their partnership to support the PBS Kids series “Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood.“ The foundation’s Vroom initiative, which translates research on children’s brain development into tips for parents, will sponsor the series into 2020 with promotional spots encouraging parents and caregivers to turn everyday moments with their young children into “brain-building opportunities.”
“We are delighted to continue this important and successful collaboration with Vroom for the benefit of children and families nationwide,” said Paul Siefken, president & CEO of Fred Rogers Productions. “Vroom’s support is helping us to achieve our mission of serving our young audience with valuable opportunities to learn and grow, both on-screen and beyond.”
