  • ‘Roswell, New Mexico’ seizoen 4 trailer

    De eerste trailer voor ‘Roswell, New Mexico’ seizoen 4 is verschenen, het nieuwe seizoen begint op 6 juni op The CW.

  • ‘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.

  • 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.

  • Paul en Julie gaan weer samenwerken in nieuwe serie voor Netflix

    Paul Wesley en Julie Plec, beiden bekend van The Vampire Diaries, gaan weer samenwerken om voor Netflix een serie te maken met de werktitel Confessions. Het project is gebaseerd op het artikel The Confessions of a Drug-Addicted High Scool Teacher.

    Paul Wesley speelde Stefan Salvatore in The Vampire Diaries, terwijl Julie Plec als showrunner fungeerde. Voor dit nieuwe project, met de werktitel Confessions, is de rolverdeling ongeveer hetzelfde. Wesley dient echter ook als uitvoerend producent en Plec gaat het verhaal schrijven.

    Confessions op Netflix
    De serie wordt omschreven als een passieproject van Wesley, en was blijkbaar een van de eerste dingen die in ontwikkeling is gegaan toen de acteur zijn productiebedrijf Citizen Media startte in 2016. Het project is echter nog maar in een vroege fase van ontwikkeling, waardoor we het voorlopig nog niet hoeven te verwachten.

    Confessions is dus gebaseerd op het non-fictie artikel The Confessions of a Drug-Addicted High Scool Teacher van Jason Smith uit 2015. Het is hier te lezen.

    Het is nog onduidelijk wie er verder bij het project betrokken zijn, en wanneer we eventuele eerste beelden kunnen verwachten. Een releasedatum is waarschijnlijk nog enkele jaren van ons verwijderd.

  • Rebekah keert terug naar Mystic Falls!

    Claire zal als Rebekah te zien zijn in de november 11 aflevering van ‘Legacies’!

    Another much-missed Mikaelson is returning to the fold. Claire Holt, who played Rebekah on both The Vampire Diaries and The Originals, will reprise her role in the Nov. 11 episode of Legacies (The CW, 9/8c).

    “Hope is tracked down by the one person who could help her — Rebekah Mikaelson,” reads the episode’s official synopsis. “Rebekah is fearful of what path Hope has chosen but makes every effort to get through to her. Josie and Lizzie hold out hope in a seemingly dire situation as MG figures out what he can do to help. Meanwhile, Kaleb wants to set things right and turns to Cleo for guidance.

    When TVLine spoke with Danielle Rose Russell (aka Hope) at the top of Season 4, she told us, “I’d love to have anyone who wants to come. It’s always so fun for me to revisit Hope’s roots.” And just like that, her wish is granted.

    Holt is the latest member of the TVD-verse to surface in an episode of Legacies, joining a list that already includes Zach Roerig (Matt Donovan), Steven R. McQueen (Jeremy Gilbert), Riley Voelkel (Freya Mikaelson) and Jodi-Lyn O’Keefe (Josette Laughlin).

  • ‘Hightown’ S2 trailer

    De trailer van het tweede seizoen van ‘Hightown’ is verschenen, het nieuwe seizoen zal op 17 oktober te zien zijn op streamingsdienst Starz.

  • Michael Trevino Talks The Valenti Legacy & Roswell, New Mexico’s Exciting Season 3

    Michael heeft een interview gehad met The Wrap over het derde seizoen van ‘Roswell, New Mexico’.

    We here at TV Fanatic love ourselves some Kyle Valenti.

    This season, Roswell, New Mexico’s resident doctor, and all-around gem, has been put to the test. But through all the trials and tribulations, he remains the one guy his friends can always count on.

    Michael Trevino was kind enough to take the time to chat with us about Kyle’s journey this season, what’s next for him, and which character from The Vampire Diaries he’d like to see spend a little time in alien territory.

    Hey, Whitney.

    Hi Michael, how are you?
    I’m doing well. I’m doing well. How are you?

    Good, I’m great. Thank you. So, I’m just jumping right in here. Kyle has had a lot going on in season three, to put it mildly. How would you describe his journey so far this season?
    Well, as I’m sure you know, Kyle is continuing to put out fires. He’s there for as many people as he can be, but he’s definitely called upon. And whenever he’s needed, I feel like he shows up, but in episode 3×09, that’s going to air next week, I think we kind of see things.

    He’s reached his limit. And you sense his frustration. And I feel that it’s warranted even though it comes in a bit hot, but we’re in season three, and his life has taken a turn. And he’s finding out more and more about his own family history, and I think it’s just been a bit frustrating for him.

    Sure. And while Kyle was recovering, the audience got the big bomb dropped on us that Ramos is Kyle’s uncle. And that adds another layer to the Valenti history and legacy. So can you kind of speak to where Kyle currently is in regards to his feelings about his father and his feelings about the legacy of his family?
    Well, I think what the writers have done is really, from season one to season three, has painted a picture of who Kyle’s father was. Who is Jim Valenti? And at first, we thought he’s this great guy that Kyle had looked up to and always wanted to make proud. And maybe that is the driving force in everything and anything that Kyle does.

  • Torrey verlaat Chigago Med

    Torrey heeft besloten de serie ‘Chigago Med’ na 6 seizoen te verlaten.

    Chicago Med actress Torrey DeVitto on Wednesday addressed her impending exit from the NBC drama in a heartfelt message to fans.

    “All good things must come to an end,” she wrote on Instagram, less than an hour after news broke that both she and co-star Yaya DaCosta would not be returning for Season 7. “It has been such an honor and pure joy to bring Dr. Natalie Manning to life for all of you on Chicago Med for the past 6 seasons. But it is now time for me and her to bow out and say goodbye.

    “Thank you to all you loyal watchers who adored her as much as I did,” DeVitto added. “I can’t wait to share what’s to come with all of you. New adventures await!”

    Both actresses, DeVitto as Dr. Manning and DaCosta as nurse April Sexton, have walked the halls of the Gaffney Chicago Medical Center since the Dick Wolf-produced drama debuted on NBC in 2015. The characters have significant ties to the other shows in the One Chicago universe, appearing in several episodes of Chicago Fire and Chicago P.D.

    The rest of the Chicago Med cast — S. Epatha Merkerson as Sharon Goodwin, Oliver Platt as Dr. Daniel Charles, Nick Gehlfuss as Dr. Will Halstead, Brian Tee as Dr. Ethan Choi and Marlyne Barrett as nurse Maggie Lockwood — are all expected to return for Season 7, though their contracts are currently being negotiated.

  • Charles minder te zien in S7 van ‘Younger’

    Charles zal beperkt tot minimaal te zien zijn in het zevende seizoen van ‘Younger’ door andere verplichtingen en de corona-maatregelen wat het voor hem niet mogelijk om als vast castlid terug te keren in het laatste seizoen van de serie.

    When Younger arrives on Paramount+ for its final season next month, two key characters will be spending less time in Liza’s orbit.

    The first four episodes of Season 7 will hit the streaming service on Thursday, April 15, with the remaining episodes scheduled to drop weekly on Thursdays, Paramount+ announced today. (Update: These episodes will also be available on Hulu, following the same schedule.) The entire seventh season will also air on TV Land later this year.

    But TVLine has learned exclusively that previous regulars Miriam Shor (Diana Trout) and Charles Michael Davis (Zane Anders) will only appear in a recurring capacity.

    “Due to scheduling and Covid related matters, Miriam Shor and Charles Michael Davis were unable to be season seven cast regulars,” series creator Darren Star tells TVLine in a statement. “However, they will always be a much loved and integral part of the Younger family and have added so much heart and soul to the series.”

    Shor has been a regular since Younger premiered on TV Land in 2015, while Davis was promoted in 2018 after recurring in Season 4. The show’s sixth season finale witnessed Diana’s wedding to Enzo, a romantic event that also brought Zane closer to Kelsey.

    “In the final season, Liza’s personal life is on shaky ground as she tries to stay true to herself,” according to the official logline. “After a setback at work, Kelsey doubts her career decisions and discovers a new creative outlet. Maggie gets cancelled.”
