  • ‘Legacies’ (en Roswell, New Mexico) gecanceld door The CW

    Na 4 seizoen is er een einde gekomen aan ‘Legacies’. The CW heeft laten weten de serie niet te vernieuwen voor een nieuwe seizoen samen met 6 andere series waaronder ook ‘Roswell, New Mexico’. Ook die serie waarin o.a. Michael Trevino, Nathan Parsons, Kayla Ewell en Riley Voelkel in te zien zijn krijgt geen nieuwe seizoen. Grote reden voor het niet vernieuwen van de series is de verkoop van de zender CW die momenteel te koop staat.

    here will not be a fifth season for Legacies. The CW has canceled The Originals spinoff from Julie Plec (The Vampire Diaries), Warner Bros. TV and CBS Studios, after four seasons.

    Legacies was on the bubble, but had a slight edge due to its ties to one of the CW’s signature series, The Vampire Diaries, but ultimately the CW decided not to go forward with another season as the network has been making some tough calls as it prepares for a sale. The June 16 Season 4 finale will now serve as the series finale.

    A spinoff of The Originals, Legacies features characters from both series and its predecessor The Vampire Diaries. The series stars Danielle Rose Russell as 17-year-old Hope Mikaelson, descended from some of the most powerful vampire, werewolf and witch bloodlines. Set in The Salvatore Boarding School for the Young & Gifted, Legacies tells the ongoing story of a new generation of supernatural students as they learn what it means to be special in a society that wouldn’t understand their gifts.

    Also not returning for the 2022-2023 broadcast season on the CW are Batwoman, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, 4400, Roswell, New Mexico, Dynasty and Charmed.

    Legacies hails from Warner Bros Television and CBS Television Studios in association with My So-Called Company, with Julie Plec, Brett Matthews, Leslie Morgenstein and Gina Girolamo executive producers.

  • Vampire Diaries-ster Kat Graham verloofd

    Genet deed het aanzoek volgens People tijdens hun vakantie in Mexico. Daar waren ze vanwege zijn verjaardag. Graham is „vreselijk verliefd en kan haar geluk niet op”, zou een bron aan het Amerikaanse tijdschrift hebben verteld.

    Het stel begon in 2017 met daten. Hoewel Genet ook als regisseur betrokken is geweest bij een aantal afleveringen van The Vampire Diaries, is dit niet de plek waar het stel elkaar heeft ontmoet, schrijft People. Wel zou dit op „een set” gebeurd zijn.

After drugging and murdering Bill, she dismembers him and places the body parts into three suitcases, throwing them into Chesapeake Bay. But when the suitcases are found on the shores of Virginia Beach, an investigation is launched leading to Melanie as the prime suspect.

  • Claire, Charles, Nate en Riley te zien in aflevering ‘Legacies’

    Charles Michael Davis, Claire Holt, Nate Buzolic en Riley Voelkel zullen op 14 april te zien zijn als gastrol in een aflevering van ‘Legacies’.

    More familiar faces are returning to Mystic Falls this spring.

    Legacies‘ April 14 episode (The CW, 9/8c) will welcome Originals stars Nathaniel Buzolic (aka Kol Mikaelson) and Charles Michael Davis (aka Marcel Gerard) for the first time. They’ll be joined by Claire Holt (Rebekah Mikaelson) and Riley Voelkel (Freya Mikaelson), both of whom have guest-starred previously.

    “The Mikaelson family is welcome to visit anytime, always and forever,” showrunner Brett Matthews recently told TVLine. “It is a joy to revisit these characters and the talent who plays them. COVID makes this hard, scheduling makes this hard, and they’re all so gifted — they’re very busy. But if they can’t travel in from New Orleans, we may just have to go to them.”

    So, what brings this foursome to Legacies? Here’s the official logline for the episode, titled “Everything That Can Be Lost May Also Be Found,” which may hold the answer: “Hope continues to be swirled in confusion and fighting her humanity, which results in her seeing the people who mean the most to her: Rebekah, Marcel, Kol and Freya.” Well, there you go!

    Elsewhere in the hour, “Kaleb wants to introduce Cleo to his world, including those who had the most profound influence on his path. Meanwhile, Lizzie devises a plan to get in someone’s good graces.”

    Additional actors from The Vampire Diaries and The Originals who have returned for Legacies include Zach Roerig (Matt), Jodi-Lyn O’Keefe (Jo), Chris Wood (Kai) and Rebecca Breeds (Aurora). Candice King (Caroline) also recorded new audio for an episode. You can see a full breakdown of actors who have crossed between shows in this list. (meer…)

  • Charles gecast in ‘Early Edition’

    Charles is gecast in de reboot van de serie ‘Early Edition’ voor CBS.

    NCIS: New Orleans alum Charles Michael Davis, Jay Ali (Magnum P.I.) and Fiona Rene (I Know What You Did Last Summer) have been cast as series regulars opposite Alice Eve in CBS’ drama pilot Early Edition, a gender-swapped reboot of the late-1990s series headlined by Kyle Chandler.

    Written by Melissa Glenn, the new Early Edition follows Beth (Eve), an ambitious but uncompromising journalist working as executive producer at a Seattle TV news station, who starts receiving tomorrow’s newspaper today and finds herself in the complicated business of changing the news instead of reporting it.

    Ali will play Anthony, Beth’s news director and good friend. Anthony strives to find balance, a nearly impossible task amidst the chaos of a newsroom, but he knows his version of an ideal life would be something that includes Beth. He cares very deeply for her, so much so that he hires his Army contact – Derick – to protect Beth during this tumultuous time.

    Derick, played by Davis, is a former cop who served in Afghanistan without incident, but on his return home he was injured on the job and forced to retire. He’s a man of action but has been forced to the sidelines. He now joins Beth as a temporary “bodyguard” while she navigates the aftermath of previous events, and with that, he is unknowingly thrown into the mystery of the newspaper.

    Rene plays Trina, a close friend of Beth’s and one of the reporters at her local news station. She survived a troubled childhood, but she came out stronger, full of heart and charm. Trina brings her quirky beliefs to the newspaper trio, balancing out the skepticism of Derick and the hard and fast pace of Beth.

    Glenn executive produces the reboot with DeVon Franklin via Franklin Entertainment and Bob Brush, who developed the original. Franklin Entertainment’s Jenna Nicholson is co-exec producer of the project, which comes from Sony Pictures Television and Affirm Television, Sony TV and Affirm Films’ co-venture for family, faith, inspirational and aspirational content, in association with CBS Studios.

    This marks Davis’ return to CBS after a series-regular stint on the last two seasons of NCIS: New Orleans. Prior to that, he was a series regular on the CW’s The Originals and TV Land’s Younger. He is repped by Gersh and Mary Erickson Management.

    Ali most recently had a major recurring role on CBS’ Magnum P.I. His series credits also include Prime Video’s Carnival Row and Marvel’s Daredevil. He’s repped by Cultivate Entertainment and attorney Meyer & Downs.

    Rene most recently starred in the Prime Video series I Know What You Did Last Summer and will next appear on Netflix’s The Lincoln Lawyer. Her additional credits include SWAT, NCIS: Hawai’i and Stumptown. She is repped by Encompass and LG Management.

  • Paul gecast als Kirk in ‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’

    Paul is gecast als de jongere James T. Kirk in de nieuwe Star Trek serie voor Paramount+ die op 5 mei verschijnt. Met het nieuws zijn ook de eerste beelden van Paul in zijn rol verschenen.

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds has cast Paul Wesley in the iconic role of James T. Kirk for the show’s upcoming second season. Wesley will appear as a young version of Kirk. He is the third actor to play the character in a live-action project.

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds follows the adventures of Captain Christopher Pike prior to Kirk becoming captain of the Enterprise. When news of Wesley’s casting was announced, the The Vampire Diaries actor took to Twitter to express his excitement and shared how he had met William Shatner on a flight.

    Shatner played Kirk in the original Star Trek series and earlier films before Chris Pine took on the role in the newer Star Trek films.

    “I am deeply humbled and still a little startled to have been given the honour of playing the inimitable James T Kirk. Ever since I was a kid, I have been awed by the imaginative world Gene Roddenberry created,” shared Wesley.

    “I’m not one who usually believes in fate but this was more than a coincidence. So thanks Mr. Shatner for the good company. And for seating us together, my thanks to the great bird in the sky. Can’t wait for all of you to see our Captain Kirk on your screens.”

    Star Trek: Strange New Worlds stars Anson Mount as Captain Pike, Ethan Peck as Spock, and Rebecca Romijn as Una Chin-Riley. The series focuses on the Enterprise prior to the events of the original Star Trek series. The series is set to premiere on 5 May 2022 on Paramount+.

  • Riley scoort gastrol in ‘Chigago Med’

    Riley Voelkel zal een undercover politieagent spelen in enkele aflevering van ‘Chicago Med’.

    Guest stars are an essential part of every television show, and NBC’s medical drama Chicago Med is no exception. It’s the guests who portray the patients of the week, their family and friends, and everyone else that the main characters interact with throughout the episode. Chicago Med is now in its seventh season and is still captivating audiences.

    As particular actors leave the show for various reasons, this opens the door for new faces to join the cast, either as regulars or guest stars. One familiar new face popped up in Episode 15, which aired on March 9. That was actor Riley Voelkel. Keep scrolling to find out who Riley is playing on Chicago Med.


    Riley Voelkel plays Melina Jovanovic on ‘Chicago Med.’
    In Episode 15 of Chicago Med, which aired on March 9, a new character is introduced. At the start of the episode, a quite familiar-looking woman comes into the ED on a stretcher. The trauma victim who was in a car accident won’t offer up her name and refuses to let go of the bag she is clutching. Dr. Dylan Scott (Guy Lockard) needs to X-ray her but she won’t let the bag go, which causes Scott’s cop insight to rev into gear.

    Finally, the nurses pry the bag out of her hands and discover her name is Melina. While she is being treated for a dislocated shoulder, Scott and Maggie (Marlyne Barrett) look into her bag and discover what appears to be a brick of drugs. Scott wants to call it in, but Maggie quickly puts him in check and lets him know that he isn’t wearing a uniform of the law anymore and that they don’t have the authority to report it.

    Viewers most likely thought that Melina was a drug dealer. However, everything isn’t always at it seems, and even though she’s working with the Serbian mob, she’s really not selling drugs.

    Near the end of the episode, Melina shows up at Scott’s house in need of care and fills him in on what’s really going on. Melina is actually a cop herself, and she’s working undercover. This is quite a twist, and it seems that Melina will be featured in at least one more episode.

    Where have we seen Riley Voelkel before?
    Riley is a busy actor known for her roles in shows like Hightown; Roswell, New Mexico; The Originals; and The Newsroom. We have no doubt that she will bring a lot to her new role on Chicago Med.

    It will be exciting to see what kind of arc the show’s writers have set up for her.

    Tune in to new episodes of Chicago Med on Wednesdays at 8 p.m. EST on NBC.

  • ‘Hightown’ vernieuwd voor seizoen 3

    Riley’s serie ‘Hightown’ is vernieuwd voor een derde seizoen door steamingsdienst Starz.

    Starz has renewed its critically acclaimed crime drama series Hightown for a third season.

    Starring Monica Raymund, the Cape Cod-set Hightown is created and executive produced by Rebecca Cutter and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer Television and Lionsgate Television.

    “Hightown is such an incredible show, and we could not be happier that it’s been renewed for a third season,” said Kathryn Busby, President, Original Programming for Starz. “We are excited to return to Cape Cod to see our iconic characters battle their past mistakes as well as new foes in the dangerous underworld that lies beneath this idyllic setting.”

    In Season 2, the picture-perfect version of summer on Cape Cod clashed with its off-season reality. Per the logline: Achieving her dream of becoming a real cop, Jackie Quinones (Raymund) is out to do some good in this world. Thrust immediately into the crime wave of deadly carfentanyl flooding the Cape, Jackie is laser-focused on bringing down drug dealer Frankie Cuevas (Amaury Nolasco), the man Jackie holds responsible for the death of her best friend, Junior. For Jackie, it is personal — but then again, for Jackie, everything is personal.

    When Frankie’s cousin Jorge (Luis Guzmán) joins his operation, he introduces a new level of violence and chaos. With disgraced officer Ray Abruzzo (James Badge Dale) off the force and mired in depression, Jackie finds a new partner in Leslie (Tonya Glanz), the only other woman on the force. Through it all, Jackie must walk the tightrope of sobriety as she struggles to stay above an ocean of secrets, betrayal and the shame and failure of her past.

    Riley Voelkel, Atkins Estimond, and Dohn Norwood also star.

    Cutter made her television directorial debut in Season 2. Oscar-nominated filmmaker Rachel Morrison (Mudbound, Fruitvale Station) also directed two of the second season’s 10 episodes. Raymund, Brandon Sonnier, Radium Cheung, Antonio Negret and Eagle Egilsson also directed in Season 2.

    Cutter executive produces with Gary Lennon, along with Jerry Bruckheimer, Jonathan Littman and KristieAnne Reed from Jerry Bruckheimer TV. Ellen H. Schwartz also serves as executive producer.

    Season 2 is streaming on all Starz platforms.
