2 Br/1 Ba Teaser Trailers

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.

Revival House Extension #3

6 months on from the last of these updates we have latest one.

Kathryn’s production company, Revival House, (it is little more than a name at this point) has still to be officially put to use. The trademark on the name was originally granted back in April 2012. After successfully receiving permission to use the moniker within a given market you have 6 months to show proof of the mark being used commercially, or an extension must be applied for. Up to five of those extensions can be requested. If all are granted that gives you a total of 3 years. Use it or lose it.

At the very end of September 2013 the third extension was requested and it was approved by the US Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO) just a few days later.

The previous extra-time allowance (#2) given back in April was followed by the news of Kathryn starring in and executive producing a remake of the 70s horror film Alice Sweet Alice. We’ve not heard anything new on this project, due to be written and directed by Dante Tomaselli (Torture Chamber), since then but these things take time and Kathryn’s had other things on her mind.

So, Kathryn has another 6 months to issue use the trademark and submit a “Statement Of Use” showing that.

The Trademarkia website has all the details.

Cold Case Season 2 Promo Photo Embiggening

I can’t carry off the black polo next and blue jeans with quite the confidence of Steve Jobs but can bring a surprise “one more thing” to the KM UK Summer Of HD 2013, which ended last week.

It took me a while to remember why a long-standing reminder to update the Cold Case season 2 promo photos even existed. The images are already in the Gallery and at quite a high resolution too. I had forgotten that KM UK’s old hosting limited the image size. The images had been shrunk to fit. Part of the reason for making the move back in May of 2010 was to accommodate images of any size to bring you the best available.

As we have just finished a retrospective of Cold Case season 2 it makes sense to finally bring you a super-sized upgrade to the promo photos from that year. Number two is a massive 3750×5000 pixels. Plus, we have a new small photo (see above).

5 enlarged promo stills and 1 new addition can now be found in the Gallery.

Be Aware Of Greeks Following Protocol

Not entirely sure what the protocol is here…

Actress Xen Sia (above right with Kathryn) is the October cover star of the monthly New York-based NEO Magazine, which focuses on American Greeks. Xen appeared on KM UK’s radar earlier this year when she starred in, what we believed at the time, was a short film called The Protocol by Johnny Messner’s “Johnny Be Goode” production company.

The exact nature of the film (plot etc.) is not known to us but we are aware that Kathryn had a role, along with Max Ryan (Death Race), Joel Cavness, Will Crown and, of course, Xen Sia (Casino Jack). Filming took place over a few days in the middle of July. Since then we’ve not heard anything on the project. Until now.

Xen Sia has been interviewed for NEO Magazine and it gives us a very different take on the production, and a nice comment about Kathryn:

Her savvy, go-getter attitude is what landed Sia a starring role as Agent Amanda Chase in “The Protocol”, a cutting edge television series/episodic produced by Brad Feinstein. Also featuring Kathryn Morris (“Cold Case” and “Minority Report”), Max Ryan (“Death Race”) and Johnny Messner (“Tears of the Sun”), the series is currently in the midst of a bidding war between several networks. One highlight from the production experience for Sia, was getting to know and learn from her colleague, Morris.

“She really took me under her wing, and was so nurturing and motherly,” Sia said of the well-respected actress.

So, The Protocol could become much more than we thought. If it were to become a TV series it does not necessarily mean that Kathryn would be starring in it.

You can read the full article by Eleni Kostopoulos HERE on the NEO Magazine website.

We will update you with further news on The Protocol when we can. Doing so before then would be difficult
