A little over a year has passed since we first heard about the film 2 Br/1 Ba, and slightly less since they finished filming it. In the intervening period things have gone a bit quiet on the 2 Br/1 Ba front. Those involved in the project have been very busy though.
Lead actress Alexa Vega (Spy Kids) has seen the release of Machete Kills, the follow-up to Robert Rodriguez’s Machete. The original Machete film was based on one of a number of fake trailers for movies seen in the Robert Rodriguez/Quentin Tarantino film Grindhouse, which also starred Cold Case‘s Tracie Thoms. The Machete character, as played by Danny Trejo (From Dusk Till Dawn), first appeared in the kids film Spy Kids which starred Alexa Vega and was directed by Robert Rodriguez. Phew! Is anyone following this?
Co-lead actress Spencer Gammer (TV show Greek) on the other hand has done more TV work with a guest role on CSI early this year and new for autumn 2013 NBC drama Ironside. Based on the long-running TV show from the 60s and 70s, starring Raymond Burr as a wheelchair-bound detective, the new Ironside has had a very short run indeed. Just last week the network cancelled the show after only three episodes had aired. I understand that one more will be shown this week before the show is replaced by repeats and a new programme in January.
Richard Riehle (Office Space) continues to be the hardest working man in Hollywood with far too many recent and upcoming projects to mention here.
But why single out those three? you ask. Good question. Because all of them can be seen in two short teaser trailers for 2 Br/1 Ba now available in the KM UK Gallery. Sadly, other than her name being shown towards the end of each 40 second long piece Kathryn does not appear. I’ve posted them because they give you some ideas as to the content and style of the film.
While we’re on the subject of those involved in 2 Br/1 Ba we’ll cover a couple of others.
2 Br/1 Ba Producer Tenille Houston (She Wants Me) starred in the much talked about film The Canyons. Perhaps ‘notorious’ is a better word for it as the off-screen antics of star Lindsay Lohan was making headlines throughout filming.
Co-producer Kristen Ruhlin (She Wants Me and banner image) has also had a busy time of late. She got married to this film’s director Rob Margolies earlier this year. Thanks to a new podcast interview with Austin Mitchell (for English people of a certain age: not that one) for his Broken Legs podcast we’ve learnt that they are expecting their first child together in December. Congratulations all round to Kristen & Rob.
In the interview (available HERE on iTunes, 2 Br/1 Ba is mentioned in the last 10 minutes of the lengthy chat) Kristen mentions that they are currently looking for a buyer for the film. KM UK will, of course, let you know more when we can.
