More Cold Case Guest Star Reddit AMAs

Thanks again go to Todd Smitts for keeping an eye out on behalf of the whole Cold Case fan community.

Todd has let me know that a couple more guest stars from the long running CBS drama series will be taking part in Reddit ‘Ask Me Anything’ chat sessions in the next few days.  So, I’m passing it on to you.

First up is Sam Trammell, who played the 1981 flashback version of Porter Rawley in the Cold Case episode Blood On The Tracks (the 15th of season 4).  More recently Sam has had a major role in True Blood, which came to an end last year.  Sam’s acting credits include a large number of well known shows such as House, Bones (the pilot no less), CSI: NY, Numb3rs, Dexter and Medium.  He’s also been seen on the big screen in the likes of last year’s hit movie The Fault In Our Stars.  Sam’s AMA is due to take place at 5pm (EST) on Tuesday the 20th of January.

The Runner (CC season 1, episode 5) guest star Cory Hardrict is scheduled for a Redditt chatting on Friday (23rd Jan) at the earlier time of 2:30pm (EST).  Cory’s career started a few years before Sam’s and he has an equally illustrious and varied CV.  He can count Chicago Hope, Buffy spin-off Angel, NYPD Blue, ER, Without A Trace, Heroes, and Saving Grace amongst his many roles.  That’s not the half of it, I skipped past many other big name shows in making that short list.  Cory is also in movies and is in the current hot topic film American Sniper.

For further details the Reddit IAmA page is HERE.

I’m always happy to pass on information to the wider community on these pages so if you have something you think fellow Kathryn/Cold Case fans would like to know about please use the Contact form.

It’s Kathryn, But Not As You Know Her

peoples_choice_25It’s nice that someone thinks of Kathryn when they are creating a fantasy cast for a work of fan fiction.

Personally I’d “go another way” if I were to write such a thing involving Kathryn though.  There’d be less plot, perhaps just involving a plumber or pizza delivery boy, oddly coloured clothes, and more… bow chicka bow wow 😉  And a car chase!  A short instead of a feature too :-(

Fan faction author Cleo Calliope has Kathryn down as Jemma Pierson in her latest story, Pack, based on Sherlock Holmes.  It seems to be closer to the modern British TV version of Sherlock than many, albeit with an even younger Sherlock.  The “real” thing stars, as the Guardian newspaper Twitter feed called him whilst posting the 2015 Oscar nominations, ‘benedict XCuebrvatch’.  We thought the days of the ‘Grauniad’ were well and truly behind it thanks to modern technologies like the automatic spell-check in word processors.  Clearly not.

We first meet Jemma in chapter three of Pack.  She is, to say the least, already dead.  Very dead.  As Lilly Rush Kathryn’s used to people spilling their guts (as in confessing), not a person spilling hers.  Jemma was also a drug-taking prostitute who went by the name Felicity.  To quote from Pack:

Her mug shots showed a woman who had been rather pretty once but at 28 was starting to show the ravages of the life she led. Her hair had been badly bleached from her natural brown to a very unnatural blonde and she wore far too much makeup to cover the shadows under her eyes and the lines that had already begun to dig themselves into her face.

That’s Kathryn down to a tee  😕

Other fantasy cast members include Anna Maxwell Martin (Becoming Jane), Tom Wilkinson (The Grand Budapest Hotel), and Brendan Gleeson (In Bruges).

To continue our People’s Choice Awards theme this week, if one post on Tuesday counts a theme, the photo Cleo chose to use to illustrate Jemma in Flickr album (which is how I found it) was from Kathryn’s appearance on the red of the event in January 2004.  In fact she used the picture you see above.

You can see that photo, 35 others, and three videos in the KM UK Gallery.

Cleo Calliope’s story Pack is on FanFiction.net and photos of her proposed supporting cast can be seen on Flickr here.

Kathryn @ People’s Choice Awards 2010

peoples_choice_awards_038Awards season 2015 has started already with the Golden Globes having taken place at the weekend.  Congratulations to all the winners.

British actors Eddie Redmayne (The Theory Of Everything) and Joanne Froggatt (Downton Abbey) took top honours in their respective categories.  Fellow countrymen Felicity Jones(The Theory Of Everything) , Benedict Cumberbatch and Keira Knightley (The Imitation Game), Rosamund Pike (Gone Girl), and David Oyelowo (Selma) lost out in theirs.

Amongst those all gonged-up were Julianne Moore (Still Alice), Kevin Spacey (House Of Cards), Amy Adams (Big Eyes), Jeffrey Tambor (Transparent), Maggie Gyllenhaal (The Honourable Woman), the films Birdman and Boyhood; and TV shows Transparent, Fargo, The Affair, Jane The Virgin, and The Normal Heart.

But enough of all that nonsense.  What’s important (on this site at least) is that Kathryn attended the People’s Choice Awards around this time of year back in 2010.

To mark that historic occasion I’ve updated the already extensive KM UK Gallery with 20 more photos of Kathryn on the red carpet, arriving at the event held at the Nokia Theatre, LA.

As I am sure you remember Kathryn wore a dark blue Pamella Roland dress for the evening, which included presenting two awards with actor Greg Grunberg (Alias).  There are already photos and video of the pair on stage in the Gallery.

The Perfect Guy Rises Early In the East

Who says there aren’t (or won’t be) perfect guys all over the world?

Since I last reported on this there have been a couple more additions to the world-wide release schedule for the Sony/Screen Gems movie The Perfect Guy.

Russia looks to get its hands on the film a couple of weeks before Europe by bagging a mid-October 2015 launch.

Slightly less official sources suggest the even further east in Singapore they could top the lot more than a monthly earlier.

The combined release date list is currently:

  • Singapore – 10 September 2015
  • Russia – 15 October 2015
  • Portugal – 29 October 2015
  • Norway – 6 November 2015
  • Poland – 6 November 2015
  • Romania – 6 November 2015
  • Sweden – 6 November 2015
  • Belgium – 18 November 2015
  • France – 18 November 2015
  • Germany – 26 November 2015
  • UK – 27 November 2015

The new items are in bold.  All are subject to change.

For more details about The Perfect Guy and Kathryn’s role in it see an earlier post here.

Artistic Anniversary?

As I am sure many of you are aware Kathryn’s birthday is rapidly approaching.  Actually it is approaching at the same speed each does, but you know what I mean.

As is traditional the day is the 28th of January.  What’s also become a tradition, albeit a slight newer one, is me asking:  Anyone up for some birthday-themed fan art to mark the occasion?

You’ll have the dubious honour of having your work hosted in the KM UK Gallery and the best featured here on the main site.  Does it get any better than that?  :-)

Contact me via the usual means if you want to send me some pics.

Thank you.
