The “To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before” sequel is in the works, and the stage is being set for a love triangle.
When we pick up with the story of Lara Jean Covey (Lana Condor), there will be another man on the scene: John Ambrose McClaren, another former crush who got one of her letters. Jordan Fisher has been cast in the role, EW reports. He’ll be a romantic rival to Peter Kavinsky (Noah Centineo), the guy Lara Jean fell in love with in the first movie.
“To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before” set itself up for the sequel by having a post-credits scene in which John showed up at Lara Jean’s door. In that scene, however, he was played by another actor, Jordan Burtchett. It’s an inconsistency that fans will have to get over. Producer Matt Kaplan promises (via EW) that “there isn’t a more perfect guy who could believably shake things up in Lara Jean and Peter’s world.”
Condor introduced Fisher to fans in a new video, and he shared that he’s “just excited to be here.”
P.S. I’m John Ambrose McClaren! Look out, LJ.@alltheboysfilm @NetflixFilm @lanacondor pic.twitter.com/8mj0cko8qw

Fisher acts, sings, and dances. He most recently starred in Fox’s live production of “Rent,” and he’s also a “Dancing with the Stars” winner. Other shows he has been on include “Bones,” “Teen Wolf,” and “Liv and Maddie.”
The sequel is in production now, and we’re patiently awaiting its release date.

Fox’s upcoming live staging of the Tony-winning musical “Rent” will feature an all-star ensemble, with the network unveiling the full cast on Monday.
The eclectic group includes a mix of pop stars, Broadway vets, and television favorites, and features several faces already familiar to fans of the recent live musical TV trend. Here’s a breakdown of who’s who in the cast, per The Hollywood Reporter:
We’re happy Hudgens will be returning to the Fox live musical fold, after her excellent performance in “Grease: Live.” And we’re especially excited that Fisher, another “Grease: Live” alum, will be getting such a major role this time, after his scene- (and heart-) stealing turn in that show.
Thankfully, we won’t have to wait 525,600 minutes for “Rent: Live” — it’s set to debut on Fox on January 27.

Thankfully, the “Dancing With the Stars: LIVE! – Light Up the Night” cast and crew are “fine” — with some “recovering from minor injuries” — after their tour bus was involved in one of the many crashes in snowy Iowa.
According to the Des Moines Register, law enforcement responded to dozens of multi-vehicle crashes on Monday, killing eight people, and damaging more than 150 vehicles.
Here’s what happened to the DWTS tour, per their Instagram:
The Fall 2017 season winner, Jordan Fisher, is part of the tour, and he shared his relief that the accident wasn’t worse:
Thanking God for the safety of our crew. Thanks for the prayers and well-wishes. https://t.co/CLCOD3R0rx

DWTS pro Emma Slater, who is engaged to fellow pro Sasha Farber, updated fans on the accident:
Here are the upcoming tour dates. Stay safe out there!
Remember, there is no regular spring season of “Dancing With the Stars” this year. (And maybe ever again?) Instead, they just have the fall season, plus a special all-athletes mini-season of DWTS premiering Monday, April 30 on ABC.

“Dancing With the Stars” Season 19 winner Alfonso Ribeiro clarified his “edited” comments about new Season 25 winner Jordan Fisher after strong backlash from fans.
“The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” alum won DWTS in Fall 2014, with pro partner Witney Carson. Alfonso is a regular in the DWTS audience, and got to perform again on Season 25 in a Trio dance with Witney’s Fall 2017 partner, Frankie Muniz.
Season 25 came down to three finalists: Jordan and Lindsay Arnold (winners); Lindsey Stirling and Mark Ballas (second place); and Frankie and Witney (third place). During Monday’s Finals Night 1, Alfonso was shown critiquing Jordan — the top-scoring dancer of the season — saying he could use a slice of humble pie.
Fans were shocked by the comment, especially from someone as proud and confident as Alfonso:
So, Alfonso, if Jordan is cocky and needs a slice of humble pie, what do you need a 3 tier humble wedding cake? #DWTS pic.twitter.com/LhdaL5iR8v

Alfonso saying Jordan needs humble pie is unreal, anyone else remember the arrogant reaction when Alfonso won?! ???????????? #DWTS

Me when Alfonso said Jordan ‘needs a piece of humble pie.’ What season has he been watching? #dwts pic.twitter.com/wPXad27Mo6

Alfonso took to Instagram to explain, saying he just watched the DWTS broadcast and saw people were “condemning” him on social media for his edited comments. He posted a video apology/clarification, with this caption tagging both Jordan and his pro partner Lindsay:
“@jordan_fisher @dancingabc my words were taken out of context. This was edited. Please accept my apology for allowing them to only show a piece of what I felt. You are amazing. @lindsarnold”
Here’s what he says in the video below:
“Let me start by saying, before I made that comment, I actually said that Jordan was the best dancer that this show has ever seen. Everybody will say he’s the best, me included. I owe you an apology, Jordan, ’cause that’s not what I meant. You are a fantastic human being who has become such a wonderful person that we’ve now gotten to see fully on this show. You have nothing but heart. You have triumphed this year, and I am proud to have seen what you have been able to do on this dance floor. I owe you an apology ’cause that’s not how I meant it. You are the best this show has ever seen.”
DWTS fans are used to producer manipulation and heavily edited video packages. However, Alfonso didn’t really explain why he said that “humble pie” comment if it’s not what he meant.
We don’t know if Alfonso’s comment had any impact on voters’ actions before the Tuesday, Nov. 21 finale.
DWTS is now on a once-a-year format after Season 25, so Season 26 won’t premiere until Fall 2018. However, Tom Bergeron announced a special four-week all-athletes version of DWTS in Spring 2018.

Former child actor “Dancing With the Stars” season 25, E! News reports. Sources also told the outlet that Disney Channel star Jordan Fisher will also put on his dancing shoes.
The official lineup won’t be announced until Sept. 6, just weeks before the ABC competition show premieres Sept. 18.
The 31-year-old Muniz is best known as the titular character on the Fox sitcom “Malcolm in the Middle.” He is currently pursuing a career as a race car driver, though he also does some acting on the side (he’ll guest star in “Preacher” season 2).
Fisher, 23, appeared in Disney’s “Teen Beach Movie,” as well as “Secret Life of the American Teenager” and “Liv and Maddie” before starring in Fox’s “Grease Live!” last year. He also recently performed in the hit Broadway show “Hamilton.”
Sources told E! that Muniz will dance with Witney Carson, while Fisher is paired with Lindsay Arnold.
The two stars join Drew Scott of “Property Brothers,” who was announced as part of the cast yesterday on “Good Morning America.”
