It’s a little thing but it makes a big difference.
Nearly a year ago, almost in passing, it was announced that Kathryn was due to have a role in the upcoming teen-thriller You Get Me. It’s a vehicle for young stars Bella Thorne (Shake It Up!), Halston Sage (Bad Neighbours), and Nash Grier (The Deleted). The plot sounds a bit Fatal Attraction, set in high school.
Kathryn’s name was dropped into reports of the cast expanding alongside the recent NCIS addition Jennifer Esposito. Subsequent reports didn’t mention Kathryn and it felt increasingly likely that her part had suffered at the hands of the editing process, never to see the light of day.
Now we have the small but important piece of evidence that we may yet see what ever character Kathryn is playing in this movie (at the time of writing we don’t yet have a character name or any description of the role). Kathryn has been added to the listed cast of You Get Me on the Internet Movie Database website (IMDb). It may not seem much but it carries some weight. The film’s page is HERE.
The other piece of news evident from the information on the IMDb page is that You Get Me is now a Netflix movie, suggesting the film will be released exclusively on the streaming platform. Still no signs of a release date though.
After the false start a couple of weeks ago it is looking at season one of the USA network sci-fi-ish drama series Colony might actually be hitting the shelves tomorrow (6th February 2017) here in the UK.
Any further delays and we may have to sending people to the factory. No green-zone for them!
The Amazon UK page for the disc is definitely showing the release date as tomorow and allowing pre-orders at time of writing. Be quick and choose the fastest/most expensive shipping option and you could have on the day.
Season two of Colony has reached the fourth episode in America and, very much as predicted, there has been no mention of Kathryn’s character Charlotte. Press releases and promo images for upcoming episodes have given us no suggestion that that will change. Charlotte’s husband (Adrian Pasdar) is shacked up with the woman (the lead character’s sister-in-law) she introduced him to in season one. We have been getting more insight into the labour camps though.
It should be noted that in a flashback to the initial invasion, the construction of the wall around the Los Angeles ‘block’ the Bowman family (Josh Holloway, Sarah Wayne Callies plus kids) live in was shown. It was a very quick process of dropping large pre-assembled segments into place. I would imagine that the realities of sealing an even longer border with such an erection may be a little more difficult and time consuming. But it is fiction after all.
I was going to start this post by saying it could very well be my last post involving the sci-fi-ish drama series Colony.
Kathryn is not likely to be in the second series, which started in the US last week. The season one DVD is out in America already and the show is available via streaming services.
That being said, the DVD release of the show in Great Britain marks the end of the saga for us on KM UK.
However… it is looking like the scheduling gods have other ideas.
Tomorrow, the 16th of January 2017, was due to see the UK season one DVD release. The Amazon page for the product has changed to ‘Currently unavailable’, which initially I took as meaning out of stock due to too many pre-orders. The release date is still shown as the 16th. Some other sites have the date down as the 6th of February. I’ve found one that has the discs down for release on both dates. Go figure!
So… Colony will probably not be available to purchase on DVD from tomorrow. Thanks for reading
When I were a lad we didn’t have any of these fancy streaming services. No, if you missed a movie at the cinema you had to wait a couple of years before it became available on VHS cassette. Or, another three or four before one of the handful of available TV channels would deign to a broadcast it.
Nowadays sometimes before a film is released in the picture houses you can legitimately watch it in your own home on TV or laptop, or even on the bus on your phone. Kids today don’t know they’re born…
Last week the Internety movie playing thingy Netflix made the horror western film Bone Tomahawk available to UK customers via that system of tubes. If you are a subscriber you can now watch Kurt Russell (The Thing) as the Sheriff set out with a disparate and somewhat desperate band of men (Patrick Wilson, Matthew Fox, Richard Jenkins) to rescue some townsfolk from the clutches of a pack of cannibalistic Troglodytes.
And if that doesn’t get you in the mood for Xmas then frankly I don’t know what to suggest
Kathryn has a small role in Bone Tomahawk as Kurt’s wife. A couple of scenes show how close they are how concerned she is about him returning safely.
Looking back a year I can see that almost to the day I posted about Bone Tomahawk being due for imminent release on DVD and Blu-ray but acknowledging that all the film world could talk about was Star Wars. How times have changed…
Waaaaaay back in March (remember then? happy times) in amongst news of Colony season one coming to the UK via Sky there was mention of Netflix acquiring the global rights.
At the time the streaming network was said to be making the sci-fi-ish drama series available to all subscribers early in 2017.
Well, Xmas has come early to sci-fi fans paying [insert correct amount here in local currency] per month to watch Netflix’s bought-in and original shows. Colony series one will be released on Tuesday (13th Dec 2016).
Kathryn guest stars in four episodes across the season, starting with number three. She plays a wealthy art collector helping the invading aliens gather paintings from across Los Angeles. As Charlotte she is also the wife of a political figure (Adrian Pasdar).
Season two of Colony is due to start in one month from tomorrow, with the first episode due to hit the USA Network on the 12th of January, as reported here last month.
