Harvey Guillén is hittin’ the road…

The 32-year-old Mexican American actor will star opposite Dallas Roberts and Arden Myrin in the comedy Road Dogs.

The film centers around three stand-up comedians who hit the road for a simple weekend showcase but soon find their plans derailed by a crooked club owner and her homicidal bouncer.

Vanessa Leigh is directing from her and Aaron W. Bennett’s script, which was based on Bennett’s time as an improv comic and comedy club owner in Central Washington.

The duo will produce alongside Kris Black from Residue Remains Productions, with Hunter G. Williams of Busted Knuckle Productions serving as executive producer.

The film will go into production in Minnesota this summer.

Guillen’s credits include What We Do in the Shadows, Reacher, Eye Candy and The Internship.

Pedro Munhoz is lining up his next opponent…

The UFC is working on a bantamweight fight between the 35-year-old Brazilian mixed martial artist and Sean Daniel O’Malley, according to ESPN.

The 135-pound bout is expected to be finalized in the near future.

It will take place at UFC 276 on July 2 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

O’Malley (15-1) is 5-1 in the UFC with five knockouts. Fighting out of Glendale, Arizona, he is already a fan favorite and is currently ranked No. 13, but he has not fought anyone ranked inside the UFC’s top 10.

That will change against Munhoz (19-7), who has been one of the most consistent bantamweights in the UFC for years. He is ranked No. 10 in the bantamweight division.

Munhoz is 1-4 in his past five fights; however, all four losses came against current or former UFC champions: Dominick Cruz, Jose Aldo, Frankie Edgar and Aljamain Sterling.

Krysta Rodriguez has found a new companion…

The 37-year-old Latina actress and singer has been tapped as a lead opposite Lauren Lapkus in CBS’ comedy pilot Sober Companion.

The project hails from Jane the Virgin creator/executive producer Jennie Snyder Urman and CBS Studios, where Urman is under an overall deal.

Written by Gracie Glassmeyer and David Rosenthal from a story they co-wrote with Urman, Sober Companion revolves around Eliza (Rodriguez), a hot-mess alcoholic who owns a bookstore/bar with her uncle in New Orleans and who is forced to get her life together when the court appoints her an exhaustingly upbeat sober companion, Shelley (Lapkus), with whom she has to live 24/7.

The comedy was originally set up at Fox during the 2013-2014 cycle where it went to a single-camera pilot with Justin Long in the title role and Nick Frost as the co-lead. The project, which was written by Urman and Rosenthal, didn’t make it past the pilot stage and has now been retooled through a female lens.

Rodriguez’s Eliza is described as being fun-loving and quick-witted. After one too many run-ins with the law, she is assigned a court-appointed Sober Companion, Shelley, who will force her to confront her demons, get her act together, and stay sober… all while driving her completely nuts.

Lapkus’ Shelley is a joyful, high-spirited oddball. Her methods are a bit unconventional, and her relentless enthusiasm isn’t everybody’s cup of tea, but she’s the best at what she does.

CBS Studios produces in association with Sutton Street.

Rodriguez co-starred in Ryan Murphy’s Halston, in which she played Liza Minnelli.

Her other television credits include a starring role in NBC’s Trial & Error, as well as Younger, Lisey’s Story and Gossip Girl.

Rodriguez also starred in the Netflix post-apocalyptic comedy Daybreak, and is known for her role as Ana Vargas on NBC’s Smash.

She was last seen on Broadway in Spring Awakening, and before that, she headlined the original Broadway cast of First Date.

Anuel AA is going global…

The 29-year-old Puerto Rican rapper has revealed his 2022 Las Leyendas Nunca Mueren world tour, which is named after his third studio album that debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Latin Albums chart in December 2021.

The tour begins on April 30 in Las Vegas and will continue across various countries in Europe and Latin America, before wrapping up on December 3 in Guadalajara, Mexico.

In the summer, the artist born Emmanuel Gazmey Santiago will make his way to the U.S., visiting fans in key cities including Miami, New York, Los Angeles, and more.

The North American leg of LLNM, which will run from August 24 in Houston until October 15 in New York City, will be presented by Cardenas Marketing Networks (CMN).

“I promise that this tour will be awesome, it’s another level,” Anuel AA shared on Instagram, revealing that more dates and cities will be announced soon. “It’s not only music. It’s more than that. You won’t understand until you’re there.”

In addition, Anuel, who’s currently making the rounds with “Si Tu Me Busca,” his first-ever collaboration with girlfriend and Dominican newcomer Yailin La Mas Viral, also revealed that his next studio album is on the way.

“I haven’t announced the tour because I was finalizing ‘Las Leyendas Nunca Mueren 2,’” he expressed in the same post.

Tickets for the 2022 Las Leyendas Nunca Mueren tour go on sale at 10 a.m. ET on Friday, April 8, via www.ticketmaster.com.

Mariah Carey has a Latto going on…

The 52-year-old half-Venezuelan American Grammy-winning singer is joining voices with DJ Khaled for the upcoming remix of Latto’s breakout hit single “Big Energy.”

The announcement comes following a not-so-subtle Twitter exchange between Latto and Carey, in which the duo hinted at a collaboration through clever emojis.

The collaboration between Latto and Mariah Carey is a no brainer, as “Big Energy” samples Tom Tom Club’s 1981 single, “Genius Of Love,” which most fans will recognize from Carey’s No. 1 single “Fantasy.”

The song, released via StreamCut/RCA Records in September, hit No. 14 on the latest Billboard Hot 100, marking the 23-year-old Atlanta native’s first top 40 hit.

The “Big Energy” remix also comes following the release of her album 777 on March 25, which features star-studded guest appearances from Lil Wayne, Childish Gambino, 21 Savage, Lil Durk, Nardo Wick, and Kodak Black.

“I basically took this masculine, trendy ‘big d–k energy’ quote from Twitter and made it a thing where all genders can have ‘big energy’ and take it deeper than just [something] sexual,” Latto previously told Billboard of her song. “I wanted it to be empowering. It’s an aura that you carry and a confidence. It’s just an overall vibe and when you walk in the room, you have ‘big energy’ and no one can tell you otherwise. It’s an uplifting thing and turning a funny quote into something positive.

“My main thing that I like to push on my fans — or even if you’re not a fan and just tuned into my career — you can like the music or not like the music, but I want you to appreciate my come up, my hustle, my grind, my dedication to what I do,” she continued. “The proof is in the pudding. If you put your mind and hard work and prayer into what you do, it will happen. I’ve been doing this since I was eight years old, and I’m watching my dreams unfold. If eight-year-old Latto saw me being on Billboard — that’s huge to me. I would never take that for granted because these are things that I worked for to accomplish. The biggest thing I want them to take from me is if they stay down, the come up is near.”
