Entertainment Highlights: Boyzone's Journey, 'I'm Still Here' Impact, and Netflix Toy Expansion

In the world of entertainment, nostalgia reigns as the iconic Nineties boy band, Boyzone, reveals its journey to fame in an 'atypical' new documentary. The three-part series, 'Boyzone: No Matter What,' revisits their humble beginnings from open auditions in Dublin in 1993 to their eventual rise and hurdles over thirty years.

Meanwhile, the Academy Awards-nominated film 'I'm Still Here' has cast a spotlight on Brazil's authoritarian past. A house in Rio de Janeiro, depicted in the film, has become a point of intrigue for visitors; the film explores the perseverance of a woman during the Brazil military regime era of the 1970s, navigating personal tragedy to seek truth.

Highlighting a blend of entertainment and business, Netflix has expanded its influence in the toy sector through a strategic licensing agreement. The company behind the popular Squishmallows toys is set to launch a new 'Stranger Things' line, reflecting Netflix's ongoing commitment to capitalize on its popular science-fiction franchise.
