Idris Elba Set For War In Guillermo del Toro’s ‘Pacific Rim’:

Idris Elba is set to play one of the leads in Guillermo del Toro’s ‘Pacific Rim’, a futuristic sci-fi thriller that pits humanity against giant monsters from another world.

Idris Elba will finally graduate from strong supporting player to full-fledged leading man in Guillermo del Toro’s Pacific Rim. Legendary Pictures has been eying the respected (and busy) actor as a potential star of the sci-fi flick for a few weeks; now, a deal between the studio and Elba has been closed.

Damn! I’ve been loving the Chicago Code, and after losing another cop show I liked -The Good Guys – this really sucks. I’m kind of cringing for Chase now.

THE CHICAGO CODE 1.12 ‘Greylord & Gambat’:

If you’re a fan of television, there’s always going to be a show that you love that gets canceled prematurely. It’s inevitable. Either through low ratings or network mismanagement, some series just don’t take off. This calender year in particular was hard for me, because I already lost “Terriers,” “Stargate Universe” and “Lights Out.” If “The Chicago Code” could have been saved, it would have made my spring.

Because this show is everything I want from a cop drama. It has sharp writing, great characters, compelling stories… “The Chicago Code” really has it all.

But there is one bit of good news. We’re going to get an ending for this series. This week’s episode and next week’s finale are actually going to wrap up the Alderman Gibbons storyline that’s been percolating since episode one.

• READ: Nine Gemini nominations for Stargate Universe:

Nominations for the 25th annual Gemini Awards (Canada’s television awards) have just been released, with Stargate Universe‘s cast and crew receiving an impressive nine nominations.

SGU is nominated for Best Dramatic Series (competing against Durham County, Flashpoint, Republic of Doyle, and The Tudors). In the category of Best Performance by an Actor in a Continuing Leading Dramatic Role, Robert Carlyle (Nicholas Rush, for the episode “Human”) and Louis Ferreira (Everett Young, for “Justice”) are nominated. And for Best Direction in a Dramatic Series, Andy Mikita received a nomination for part 1 of the series premiere.

It’s interesting that it’s going up against Durham County, in that Louis Ferreira blew that role out of the water as well. Wouldn’t it be something if he walked away with both?

Stargate Universe: Louis Ferreira interview [Colonez]

Col. Young continues to be my favorite character on SGU. In all honesty, it started from moment one, in that I’ve always though Louis Ferreira had a sexy voice and a wonderful face, full of character. But it grew. It would have been so easy to make Young a one dimensional hero character with no faults, or no faults that are seen or dealt with, but the writers didn’t go there. Instead, we get this rich, layered character with flaws who keeps trying. I feel very lucky to be part of a fandom when shows like this are on the table. Anyhoo, enough from me, and more snips from the ‘Colonez’ interview: Continue reading →
