Kathryn On Colony This Week? Should Be

Colony_S01E04_still_001After 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.

Cold Case Cast Catch-up – January 2016

tracie_thoms_001_430x180

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.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATHRYN! – Update

Update (31st Jan):  The other day Kathryn’s partner, Johnny Messner, posted a photo (now in the Gallery) of a cake he’d baked for her birthday with the following message:

Made this gluten free dark chocolate cake for someone’s birthday today!! Not a big baker but I think I handled on this one 😎

Wild West Women On The WWW

still_002A lot has been said recently, and rightly so, about equality in movies.  They should reflect the times and the audience.  Of course, a film with a historical setting also needs to accurately portray its period whilst not glorifying the less progressive aspects for a modern viewership.

In most of the commentary on Bone Tomahawk the women of the piece only normally get scant mention as their roles are quite small.  Lili Simmons (Banshee) in her key part as the kidnapped wife of one of the main protagonists has no doubt had the lion’s share of what little has been said.

So, it was nice to see in a recent review of Bone Tomahawk titled The Best Western You Haven’t Seen that British author Rob Wickings made special mention of the ladies in a comparison to other recent cinematic releases The Hateful Eight and The Revenant.

Rob notes that The Hateful Eight‘s female lead is not exactly treated well and The Revenant has only one line spoken by a woman during a brief, and hardly pleasant, appearance.  In terms of the actresses on-screen time Bone Tomahawk may not out do them but the author clearly feels they are much more rounded and realistic portrayals.  Kathryn as Lorna the wife of Kurt Russell’s Sheriff Hunt gets a mention in his article beyond the usual list of credits.  As Rob says:

They are tough, smart women.

Sean Young is the third notable female cast member, thereby outdoing both The Revenant and The Hateful Eight combined :-)

You can read Rob Wicking’s post in full HERE on his blog Excuses And Half Truths as he looks forward to the mid-February release of Bone Tomahawk here in the UK.

Bone Tomahawk Heads For The Low Country

rotterdam_film_festival_logo_600x600After the dizzying heights of eastern France yesterday today we are heading both North and down.

The distinguished looking gentleman you see on the right is the logo/mascot of the International Film Festival Rotterdam.  He’s a tiger, apparently loosely based on the MGM film studio’s iconic roaring lion, and is used to represent the event in all its forms.  The festival is held in the city of Rotterham in South Holland, the Netherlands, and this will be its 45th year.

S. Craig Zahler’s Horror western Bone Tomahawk is having its national première on Friday (29th) at the Pathé Schouwburgplein cinema starting at 12:30pm.  Saturday night sees a repeat screening a the same venue.  An evening showing at the Cinerama Filmtheater on Sunday and the following Friday (5th Feb, yes it is nearly February already!) for final 19:15 start at the Oude Luxor Theater.

As is usual on these occasions we end on a link to the official website of the event in question: HERE.
