“America’s Next Top Model was a groundbreaking force that forever shaped pop culture, but there’s more to its complicated legacy than meets the eye. Whether you tuned in weekly or recently discovered the show, Reality Check will reveal fresh insights and intimate reflections on the drama, controversy, and personalities that defined this iconic series. After teaming up with Netflix on big live events like boxing and football, EverWonder is excited to spotlight a different world of fierce competition: reality TV.” – Jon Adler, EP (EverWonder Studio)
“We can’t wait for Netflix’s global audience to see what really happened behind the scenes of America’s Next Top Model and the cultural moment it created. Reality Check is a fun, fast-moving nostalgia trip that also examines real issues of gender, race, exploitation, and personal conflict. And Netflix is the ideal partner for our first documentary series, which reflects Wise Child’s focus on telling character-driven stories that are both compelling and highly entertaining.” – Jason Beekman, EP (Wise Child Studios)

“We chose to title the film, Finch & Midland, because it’s a well known area for many Chinese immigrants who decided to settle in the GTA back in the late ‘90s and early 2000s,” says Yeung. “And Scarborough is still a very welcoming place for new immigrants that have chosen to call Canada home.”
“We wanted to support these two specific charities based in Scarborough – Community Family Services of Ontario and Scarborough Centre for Healthy Communities – because they do so much for newcomers,” continues Ridley Tsui, Executive Producer. “We will be hosting a reception with some of our cast before each preview screening, and a portion of the evenings’ ticket sales will go towards these organizations.”
FINCH AND MIDLAND follows four Hong Kong immigrants navigating fractured family ties, career challenges, and the search for love and belonging. Each story showcases not only the characters’ struggles but also highlights the hope and resilience that play a big part in the lives of all immigrants as they strive to embrace Canadian culture. The film features a Hong Kong and Canadian cast including Anthony Wong (The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, Infernal Affairs, Hard Boiled), Patrick Tam (Fight for Tomorrow, Mutant, Beast Cops), Nina Paw (aka Hee Ching Paw, Mou Ming Zi, Jue Ming Fa Guan, Lost in Time), Harriet Yeung (Hit N Fun, Port of Call, The Sparring Partner), Theresa Lee (Ruthless Bastards, Condor Heroes, Ai wei yang, Son of the Dragon), Dmitry Chepovetsky (Children Ruin Everything, Murdoch Mysteries, MI: Ghost Protocol) and Jaden Kwan (Chucky).
On Wednesday, February 11th, the reception will be starting at 5PM at Yueh Tung Restaurant in Toronto prior to the Cineplex Varsity Cinemas 7PM screening. On Thursday, February 12th, the reception will be starting at 5PM at Good Catch Cafe in downtown Markham prior to the Cineplex Markham Cinemas 7PM screening. Cast in attendance at the receptions include actors Anthony Wong, Dmitry Chepovetsky, Skye Chan, Jaden Kwan, Simon Lau, Wavy Zhao, Jenny Hong, Samantha Ji, Kayla Fok, Stephen Woo and Stephen Wong. There will also be a short Q&A after each screening.

Don Toliver has announced his fifth studio album, OCTANE, set for release on January 30th via Cactus Jack/Donway & Co/Atlantic Records. The project marks a bold new chapter in Toliver’s ever-evolving sound, capturing the artist fully present in the moment and operating at full speed.
OCTANE is an immersive body of work rooted in Toliver’s signature melodic, psychedelic trap-R&B. Built with lush, cinematic production and unexpected samples, the album reflects Toliver’s desire to bottle and share his energy as it exists right now. “It’s not in the future, it’s not in the past, it’s right now,” he says.
Recorded across a variety of settings, including his European tour, Carmel-by-the-Sea, Los Angeles, and Mount Wilson, the album draws heavy inspiration from Toliver’s love of cars and rally racing culture. Independence, motion, and the thrill of the drive fuel OCTANE’s imagery and spirit, positioning the project as a soundtrack for creativity, freedom, and life’s ongoing journey.
OCTANE follows a celebrated run of albums that showcase Toliver’s ability to create distinct sonic worlds, including Heaven or Hell (2020), Life of DON (2021), Love Sick (2023), and HARDSTONE PSYCHO (2024), which earned him his first No. 1 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.
With multi-platinum hits such as “No Idea,” “After Party,” “Lemonade,” and “Private Landing,” featuring Justin Bieber, Don Toliver continues to cement his place among the most influential voices in Hip-Hop and R&B today. OCTANE arrives January 30th, inviting listeners to ride fully in the present.
