"AMERICAN HORROR STORY" TO RETURN NEXT SEASON WITH NEW CAST


Still from American Horror Story
One of my latest obsessions is FX's American Horror Story, which concluded its first season just recently after 13 episodes. The Horror Drama is pretty much the best thing to happen to surface on Television in quite some time, daring to go where few others have before. Produced by Glee's Brad Falchuk and Ryan Murphy, the Series is a complete departure from what we are used to with the antics over at William McKinley High School. And I pray that unlike Glee, all of American Horror Story's glory isn't all thrown into its first Season only.

The First Season centers around the Harmon Family: Ben (Dylan McDermott), Viven (Connie Britton) and their Daughter Violet (Taissa Farmiga), who move into a Home with a horrible, horrible history.  Their Neighbour, the overbearing Constance (Jessica Lange), constantly is lurking about, holding the key to some disturbing secrets which unlock their fate.  The Supporting Cast also includes Kate Mara, Zachary Quinto, Frances Conroy, Sarah Paulson and Denis O'Hare.

ROONEY MARA ON "LIVE! WITH KELLY"


Still from The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
Rooney Mara is pretty much on the verge is something huge with David Fincher's The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. The 26 year-old New Yorker appeared a bit green on the interviewing, telling Kelly Ripa on Live! With Kelly five important things you need to know about the Girl who plays Lisbeth Salander:
  • Mara had five piercings done at once in preparation for her role, some which she says are "under her shirt" and "cannot be mentioned on Daytime Television"; her nose was not pierced.  As more filming is forthcoming for additional installments of the Stieg Larsson Trilogy, she has decided to keep her piercings in.
  • In real life, Mara has no tattoos
  • To develop an authentic Swedish accent, she worked with a Coach two hours a day before Filming began

JUSTIN LONG AT TIFF 2011 WITH "TEN YEAR"


Justin Long & Mr. Will-W.
Making another appearance at TIFF this year is Funnyman Justin Long who by fluke I came across on his way to his Ryerson Theatre Premiere for Ten Year. Long is said to have spent some time with his Good Friend Scott Speedman who I ran into a day prior. And coincidentally, I ran into another two of Long's Co-stars, Kate Mara and Max Minghella on the street also. It was so meant to be!

Long was kind enough to roll down his window for me and pose for a quick Photo, while one member of the Mavenati, Brenda, was sweet enough to snap the moment!

There still is no firm release date for Ten Year, with its All-star Cast of Channing Tatum, Jenna Dewan, Ron Livingston, Rosario Dawson and more.

KATE MARA & MAX MINGHELLA AT TIFF 2011 WITH "TEN YEAR"


Kate Mara & Mr. Will-W.
This morning while beginning my fourth day of TIFF 2011 festivities, I crossed paths with the stars of Ten Year. Just across the road from my Condo! Kate Mara, Sister of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo herself Rooney Mara and her Boyfriend Max Minghella (The Social Network) were out shopping today and were amazing enough to stop for a quick Photo before heading off.

Minghella appears in two titles at this year's Festival, the other being high-profile The Ides of March, which premiered here on Friday night.

Ten Year is said to have some similarities to The Big Chill and it premieres Monday night at Ryerson Theatre, with names like Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan being expected for arrival also.

THANK YOU, CHRIS PINE.


Chris Pine
Uh, yeah wayTHE Chris Pine, known for his breakout performance in Star Trek and Unstoppable, is currently in Vancouver filming This Means War alongside Tom Hardy and Reese Witherspoon. Somewhere between filming breaks, the devastatingly handsome Actor mailed me this beautiful signed Photo, which I just received today!   Amazingly nice and needless to say, I'm touched.

Pine can be seen next in the Comedy Ten Year alongside an ultra-hot Cast of Kate Mara, Anna Faris, Channing Tatum and John Krasinski.

*gush*

DANIEL CRAIG AND ROONEY MARA IN STOCKHOLM FILMING "THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO"


Daniel Craig filming in Stockholm
Oh yeah. As many of us know, David Fincher's U.S. adaptation of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is filming already in Stockholm, Sweden and our favourite hunk Daniel Craig is starring in the film.  For those of you who have seen the original Swedish version of the film, you'll know disappointingly that the character Craig plays, disgraced journalist Mikael Blomkvist, is clothed for most of the film. Bummer.

All eyes right now however on the movie's female lead Rooney Mara as Lisbeth Salander, who steps up to the physically demanding role in three instalments. Mara got lots of exposure this weekend in Fincher's The Social Network which not only debuted at number one at the Box Office, but continues to perform strongly, slaughtering the competition even based on Monday and Tuesday's numbers. Mara's big sister Kate appears briefly in Danny Boyle's 127 Hours which recount's mountain climber Aron Ralston's hours stuck in a cave under a boulder.
