Star World Premiere HD to air drama show ‘Bosch’ on 19 March
MUMBAI: Star World Premiere HD is geared up to premiere season 2 of the drama show Bosch. The show will air from 19 March 2016 at 8 pm. Based on Michael Connelly’s line-up of Harry Bosch novels, this season will delves deeper into the personal and professional lives of LAPD detective Harry Bosch played by Titus Welliver. The second season of the hit cop drama will bring in the heavy hitters from the books for its fans and audiences.
The seamlessly executed upcoming season 2 will see the idiosyncratic and jazz-loving LAPD detective back in the field and deeply engrossed in an all new case that may just prove to be his biggest, most dangerous challenge yet. As the case trails through treacherous conspiracy and sizeable corruption that shadows the police department, Bosch’s relentless pursuit of the truth leads him to situations involving family treason, desert safe houses, rogue cops, North Vegas brothels, domestic tension and some very dark truths.
As Bosch tries to uncover the case with resonating dynamism, he receives a call from a LA reporter who claims to know something about the unsolved murder of Bosch’s mother from 40 years ago. With an engulfing plot line, Season 2 of Bosch will see Harry juggle between his professional and personal issues and dilemma.
The star cast of the season 2 includes eminent artists like Titus Welliver with Jamie Hector as Bosch’s partner, Jerry Edgar, Amy Aquino as Lieutenant Grace Billets, Lance Reddick as deputy chief Irvin Irving and Sarah Clarke as Eleanor Wish.

Ellison takes his Paramount-Warner Bros case straight to theater owners
The Skydance chief goes to CinemaCon with promises and a skeptical crowd waiting
CALIFORNIA: David Ellison strode into a room packed with thousands of cinema owners and executives at CinemaCon in Las Vegas on Thursday and did something rather bold: he looked them in the eye and asked them to trust him.
The chief executive of Paramount Skydance vowed that his company would release a minimum of 30 films a year if regulators greenlight its proposed $110 billion acquisition of Warner Bros Discovery, a deal that has made theater owners deeply, and loudly, nervous.
“I wanted to look every single one of you in the eye and give you my word,” Ellison told the crowd. “Once we combine with Warner Bros, we are going to make a minimum of 30 films annually across both studios.”
It was a confident pitch. Whether it landed is another matter. Cinema operators have already called on regulators to block the deal, and scepticism in the room was hardly concealed.
Ellison pushed back by pointing to recent form. Paramount, born from the merger of Paramount Global and Skydance Media last August, plans to release 15 films this year, nearly double the eight it put out in 2025. Progress, he argued, was already underway.
He also threw theater owners a bone they have long been chasing: all films, he pledged, would run exclusively in cinemas for a minimum of 45 days, drawing applause from a crowd that has spent years fighting for exactly that commitment across the industry.
“People can speculate all they want,” Ellison said, “but I am standing here today telling you personally that you can count on our complete commitment. And we’ll show you we mean it.”
Fine words. The regulators, however, will have the last one.
