Nominated for an NAACP award, for the portrayal of Dom Toretto:

Vin Diesel
We all know, I tend to shy away from award shows…

/smile

However, I can’t tell you how honored I am to be Nominated for an NAACP award, for the portrayal of Dom Toretto in Fast Five.

Haha… one to be proud of…

I am lucky to have such a great ensemble of actors, director, writer, producers… and even the studio. Film is truly a team effort, and everyone gave above and beyond.

P.s. Thank you NAACP for validating my work, and more importantly, validating all those who have believed in me.

A [not] new companion! The walking Dead! Jordana Brewster, and SOPA! [I read stuff]

Madame de Pompadour as the next companion?:

This may all just be Steven Moffat trolling the internet, but the Doctor Who showrunner tweeted that people should follow Sophia Myles’s Twitter feed, and that he would explain later. Myles, who played Madame de Pompadour in Moffat’s second series episode “The Girl in the Fireplace”, put out a couple cryptic tweets, but no further information is forthcoming. This has led to speculation – as it always does in Doctor Who fandom — that Myles might be the next companion, or at least she might appear in the next series. I’m a bit more skeptical, but honestly this one is pretty hard to read. [Zap2It]

Karen Gillan confirmed again that her departure from the role has already been decided, but that her final appearances will comprise “a few episodes… a few really good episodes.” [Hitfix]

Fast Six!

Posted on April 20, 2011 by xxxevilgrinxxx

Fast Six in the works:

Although Fast Five won’t be released for another week Universal are expecting good things, and have already started working on the sequel, Fast Six (or Fast and the Furious 6).

The news comes from THR who heard Chris Morgan, the writer behind Wanted, The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, Fast and Furious and Fast Five, has signed a two-year deal with Universal and will soon begin writing the script for a sequel (which they call Fast Six).

Fast and Furious made $353 million worldwide in 2009 and Fast Five, which will hit screens on April 29, is expected to do equally as well, if not more as it is the first big summer blockbuster. In the film Dominic (Vin Diesel) and Brian (Paul Walker) find themselves on the wrong side of the law once again as they try to switch lanes between a ruthless drug lord and a relentless federal agent (Dwayne Johnson). No word yet on if they will return for Fast Six, but i’m sure they will be asked about it soon once the numbers for Fast Five roll in.
