News about Iman Benson

If you are a '90s kid or just came to love the period due to the revival of its most popular fashion styles and music, you'll love "The Midnight Club." The Netflix series follows a group of eight terminally ill patients at a hospice care center in Brightcliffe in the 1990s. Every night, they tell each other scary tales, with each promising to give the group a sign from beyond the grave if they died. But besides that, eerie mysteries about Brightcliffe have been levied. The new series, which premiered on Netflix on October 7, doesn't waste any time celebrating the nostalgia. Ilonka's character, Iman Benson, attends a college party where Cypress Hill's "Insane in the Brain" by Cypress Hill dominates the loudspeakers in the first scenes. Later, when she learns she has terminal cancer, she uses a truly retro desktop computer with dial-up internet to Yahoo's "surviving thyroid cancer."

Wizard of Oz fans can rejoice. According to Deadline, writer/director Kenya Barris will work on a reimagined version of the beloved drama fantasy starring Judy Garland and Margaret Hamilton.
