 It has been a long time coming but Bone Tomahawk will finally be released in UK cinemas a week on Friday.
 For reasons unknown the film was delayed from the original December 2015 date, as reported here on KM UK back in November. My best guess is that the distributor wanted to try and ride the wave of publicity from The Hate Eight, which also stars Kurt Russell, and the western-esque film The Revenant. Going for a Friday in late January would have been a better option then. Unless they are hoping for a further boost from those films being talked about a lot during the upcoming awards season, as we go through the BAFTAs and Oscars in the next couple of weeks.
Above (and now in the Gallery) is a copy of the Bone Tomahawk poster for the UK release. I’ve also included the UK trailer video.
Very much taking its cues from that art work is the one you see on the right. It is to promote a special pre-release screening of Bone Tomahawk to be held this coming Sunday as part of an ‘Anti-Valentine’ event to be held somewhere in London.
If you’d like to attend for free then the HeyUGuys website is giving away three pairs of tickets to the show. It is for UK residents only and you’ll have to be quick due my slowness. Entries have to be in by midnight (23:59) on Wednesday the 10th (tomorrow at time of writing). You can read the details on the HeyUGuys website here.
 A quick summary for those that haven’t watched Colony before.
Aliens have taken control of Earth, quickly wiping out all significant military targets that could have put up a fight. The remaining population are living in walled areas known as ‘blocks’ (the LA in the show is just one of many) under the control of an armed police force made up of humans. It’s either do as your told or be shipped off to ‘the factory’ for a fate unknown. What the aliens want or why they’ve done this is not known either. Some people are fighting back, others making the best of it. The show follows the lives of a small collection of people living and working on either (or both) sides of the line.
Maddie (Amanda Righetti, The Mentalist) is the sister of more central characters of Katie (Sarah Wayne Callies, The Walking Dead) and Katie’s husband Will (Josh Holloway, Lost). She has a son with diabetes and is having to get insulin for him on the black-market, presumably all normal sources have been removed by the ‘hosts’. Maddie is taking jobs assigned to her (there’s no unemployment in the ‘block’). Previously we’ve seen her as a waitress at a party in the ‘Green Zone’. Today she’s got a new job.
Kathryn’s Charlotte Burgess is in the ‘Green Zone’, a part of the ‘block’ inhabited by those people in powerful and privileged positions. Though, no doubt, they too are doing so in fear of what would happen if they dissented. Charlotte is collecting works of art for distribution to the luckily few. Maddie has been assigned as her new assistant. As luck would have it Maddie previously worked in an art gallery so has information that is of use to Charlotte to strengthen her position. Maddie needs insulin. Charlotte can make that happen. But, as Charlotte makes clear with her “If you work for me, you work for me. Do you understand?”, she doesn’t consider this an equal trade. As we’ve possibly seen in previous confusing promos (the videos have often contained footage not from the episode in question) Maddie may have to compromise herself further to care for her son.
In total Kathryn was in the show for less than two minutes but there is clearly more to come from Charlotte. However, the information I have is that we won’t see Kathryn again until episode 7 so make the most of this for now. I’ll try to keep you informed if this changes.
It was announced yesterday that Colony has been renewed for a second season, with 13 episodes instead of this initial run’s 10. We don’t know Charlotte’s ultimate fate in season one yet so we will have keep our fingers crossed for more.
I must confess to not being a big fan of the big fringe and ear covering ‘do’, or the bold lipstick in the first scene. Oh well. It is still good to have Kathryn back on our screens.
Now we have 54 HD (720p) screencaps of Kathryn from this episode of Colony in the Gallery.
  
 After the recent disappointment of a promo video that did not accurately depict the next episode of the USA Network show Colony, things are looking much more on track this week.
Although the latest promo videos (now in the KM UK Gallery) do not show Kathryn there is now new evidence that she will be in the upcoming episode, due for broadcast in the US this week. A couple of dozen promo photos were made public last week but it only with an additional one out today that we get our first proper look at Charlotte.
A press release (below) has been… err… released that lists Kathryn along with the actor (Adrian Pasdar) who plays her character’s husband as one of the guest stars. It looks like, as I suspected, Maddie’s storyline will involve Kathryn’s Charlotte.
THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 4
COLONY – “Blind Spot” – 10pm/9c
Will (Josh Holloway) continues to earn the respect of his new colleagues, but when his home comes under an attack, everyone is a suspect- even those closest to him. Meanwhile, Maddie (Amanda Righetti) finds a way in to the upper echelon.
The series also stars Sarah Wayne Callies, Peter Jacobson, Tory Kittles and Isabella Crovetti-Cramp.
Guest Stars: Adrian Pasdar, Kathryn Morris, Carl Weathers, Kathy Baker, Kathleen Rose Perkins, Erin Way, Paul Guilfoyle, Felix Solis
In some recent Twitter posts Johnny Messner (Kathryn’s partner) mentioned Kathryn as being in three episodes (which matches the info I have) and playing an art dealer.
The image you see above and copies of the promo videos are now in the Gallery.
It’s still January, right? For the next few paragraphs lets pretend that it is to cover for the fact that I managed not to post this before the end of January. It is an easy mistake to make as it’s one of those tricky 31-day long months 
There is not much to say about the on-going careers of the Cold Case cast in January’s (ahem) KM UK CCCC-up. Xmas, New Year and run up towards pilot season may have played a part in that.
If it weren’t for Tracie Thoms (Kat Miller in CC) I’d not be posting anything at all so I’ll start (and end) with her.
The Sundance Film Festival première of movie Tracie is starring in called Equity, as mentioned last month (it is still January, remember…) happened a few days ago. Equity is a Wall Street-set drama. The twist on the normal run of things, not that it should be considered a twist at all these days, is that the principal characters are women. Anna Gunn (Breaking Bad) leads the cast along with Sarah Megan Thomas (also a producer), Alysia Reiner (Orange Is The New Black), James Purefoy (token male ), and Carrie Preston (True Blood), amongst many others. The film was also written and directed by women, Amy Fox and Meera Meron respectively.
It was announced less than a week ago that Sony Pictures Classic had bought the global rights to distribute Equity. Beyond the recent première no release dates have been announced yet.
The web series Send Me, which Tracie leads, is on for its release in February (next month…) as mentioned in the December 2015 CCCC-up. The 4th is the planned date, with preview material appearing on the project’s YouTube channel on the 1st of Feb. Find all the info about the series, which centres around Gwen (Tracie) who has the ability to send people back to the time of slavery, on its website here.
