When Sofia Coppola was granted access to the Château de Versailles’ hallowed halls for her 2006 film, Marie Antoinette, their collaboration was unprecedented. Though the film initially received criticism for its unconventional portrayal of the young French queen (intentionally opting for an anachronistically stylish over stuffily period-appropriate approach), 20 years later, its legacy is undeniable. This fall the anniversary is being fêted with a new documentary on the movie’s making (directed by Coppola’s late mother, Eleanor), a book featuring behind-the-scenes photographs by Andrew Durham, who also produced her first short movie, Lick the Star (1998), as well as a theatrical re-release in the United States. Now the palace itself is joining in on the fun, too.

“Imperfect Women” has been renewed for Season 2 at Apple TV, Variety has learned. Season 1 star Kerry Washington will return to lead the second season.

The first season of the show is based on the book of the same name by Araminta Hall, while Season 2 will be based on an original idea built around Washington’s character. “Imperfect Women” debuted on Apple TV back in March. The first season also starred Elisabeth Moss and Kate Mara. Moss’ Love & Squalor Pictures had originally optioned the book for television.

Aaron Sorkin knows the way he wrote Mark Zuckerberg in The Social Network may not have always landed exactly as he intended.

“We were surprised after The Social Network came out that there were two reactions to Mark, split along generational lines,” Sorkin told The Hollywood Reporter Sunday night at the New York premiere of his new film The Social Reckoning. “If you were a little bit older, you saw it as a cautionary tale, which is what it was intended to be. If you were a little bit younger, surprisingly, you saw it as an inspirational story. ‘Oh wow, I can drop out of school and have an idea and be a billionaire.’”
