The Wake Up with Bret & Julie's Julie Tristan has all the entertainment news that you'll need, and she might even give you a "Hot Guy Fact of the Day". Today's "Hollywood Hashtag" stories include...
The "Stranger Things" cast got a substantial raise for the fifth and final season. Winona Ryder and David Harbour will make $9.5 million, and the original kid actors will get over $7 million. Millie Bobby Brown probably makes the most due to a special deal with Netflix that includes other projects.
"Avatar: The Way of Water" has been successful enough to warrant James Cameron making the 4th and 5th installments. Part 3 has already been shot. He says, "I know what I'm going to be doing the next six or seven years."
Sadly, Adam Rich, from the '70s and '80s the family drama "Eight Is Enough", was found dead in his Los Angeles home on Saturday. He was 54 years old. Adam battled addiction and mental illness for several years. There's no word on the cause of death.

"Wednesday" has officially been renewed for a second season at Netflix.
Someone removed the music from Kevin Bacon's warehouse dance in "Footloose", and added realistic sound effects. It's weird.
Jack Black is starting off the New Year with a bubble bath...
