Supernatural Season 4 UK Premiere

Well as always ITV are slow with announcing official dates for showing of some of their shows. 

We can announce that Supernatural Season 4 will be broadcast on ITV2 with the Season premiere being shown on Sunday 25th January 2009 at 9pm on ITV2.

The official ITV2 schedule for 25th January won’t be released on the ITV site for a couple more days.  However Supernatural Season 4 will be shown on the channel and unless any major programming changes happen it will be shown at 9pm on Sundays starting on 25th January.

No doubt ITV and ITV2 will be doing the new coming soon screens, and also the preview trailer will be out soon.

Jesse McCartney

Jesse McCartney broke onto the scene in the boy band Dream Street. He then paved his way as a solo artist with songs like "She's No You" and "Beautiful Soul," and as an actor on "All My Children" and his WB show "Summerland."

Now, at 21, McCartney is out to show everyone that he's versatile, and his career shift is going just as he planned. It's reminiscent of the transition Justin Timberlakemade after leaving Justin Timberlake.

"The comparison alone is pretty cool," he told MTV News. "Like Justin, as I'm getting older, I'm learning more and more about music and learning where I fit as far as style. ... Growing up, I listened to R&B music. I listened to a lot of Michael [Jackson] and Aretha [Franklin] and [Ray] Charles. As you get older, it does come across in your music."

He also said he'd love to get in the studio with artists like Rihanna, Chris Brown and Michael Jackson in the near future. "Whenever I have time, I try to get in the studio and write, whether it's for me or other artists or my catalog of music. It's definitely one of my favorite parts of the music industry. I know a lot of people who are writing and producing Michael Jackson's new album. That would be a dream come true. ... There's talk of maybe working with Ludacris. We'll see."

December 2008 Most Beautiful Man

We have already covered Robert Pattinson more than once, however as http://www.mostbeautifulman.com/ has decided to announce him as December’s Most Beautiful Man we figured a few more pics of him would be nice.

I have already watched him in Twilight and loved the film, but then vampire films always work for me.

He has changed since being in Harry Potter but only a bit, he was hot in that as well.

Demons new to ITV

Philip Glenister (Life on Mars, Ashes to Ashes) returns to ITV in a fantastical new drama series: a contemporary spin on the legacy of Bram Stoker’s Dracula set above and beneath the streets of modern-day London.

Glenister plays Rupert Galvin, a larger-than-life American with a tragic past and a zero tolerance policy to the rabble of mythical “half-life” entities that exist all around us.  When he bursts into the life of his teenage godson, Luke (Christian Cooke – Echo Beach, Robin Hood), whose father died in mysterious circumstances 15 years before, little does Luke know what will be thrust upon him.

There are supernatural forces of evil at work and it is Luke’s destiny, as the last descendent of the Van Helsing line, to smite the half-lives that stalk our streets.  A unique online experience, Demons: The game, will accompany the show allowing players to immerse themselves in Luke’s deadly mission.

While trying to juggle an ordinary life of school exams, parties and learning to drive – not to mention keeping it all from his mum - Luke is catapulted into a world of vampires, demons and zombies, along with his best friend Ruby (Holliday Grainger – The Bad Mother’s Handbook, Waterloo Road).  But he remains cool – it’s in his blood after all…

Helping Galvin to train Luke in his quest is the beautiful but icy cold Mina Harker (Zoe Tapper - Affinity, A Harlot's Progress) a blind concert pianist with a history, who is also the foremost authority on the undesirable entities preying on humanity.  The sinister and mouldering Father Simeon (Richard Wilson – One Foot In The Grave, Merlin) is Luke’s other source of information on the lore and myth behind the creatures he faces.

But before they have time to properly prepare Luke, he is faced with a daunting opponent in the form of the villainous Gladiolus Thrip (Mackenzie Crook -The Office, Pirates of the Caribbean) a sinister vampire with a burning hatred for the Van Helsing line and all they stand for.

Throughout the series Luke faces an array of terrifying adversaries – including the half-man half-rat Mr Tibbs (Kevin McNally – Pirates of the Caribbean), who bears a deep and personal grudge against a member of the team…

Producer Julian Murphy explains what attracts him and fellow producer Johnny Capps to the supernatural genre.

“It’s simple; the script and storytelling process allow us to use our imaginations in ways that simply aren’t acceptable in your average cop show. And then there’s the challenge of realising that vision. It’s much more exciting when you don’t know how to bring something to the screen!

“We focused on the Van Helsing legacy because it gives us a ready made mythology and experience has taught us that this is very important in dramas of this kind. But perhaps the most important inspiration was London itself and, more importantly, the secret world that lies beneath those very clean and modern streets.”

Demons Starts on ITV1 on 3rd January 2009 at 7.20pm

Supernatural Season 4

Well I am loving the new season of Supernatural, of course Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles are the only reason I watch it, but its a great series.

The second part of the Season starts in January on The CW and the first part of the Season starts on ITV or ITV2 channel yet to be announced.

Lots more insight into the hierarchy of angels and their operations will be featured, together with more ‘horror’ stories.  The only thing missing is a bit more flesh from Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki, two hot guys and they are always wrapped up warm.

As with any TV programs whether or not there is a new season depends on so many factors, the popularity for one, the network commissioning it and the writers having the stories.  Well as it stands there will be a Season 5, even though Season 4 isn’t finished, but that’s a good thing.

Merry Christmas

Well its that time of year again. So I would like to wish all my visitors Merry Christmas.

Abercrombie Models

Abercrombie Models are some of the hottest typical normal guys you can see around.  I love shopping in the Abercrombie store even though its way overpriced in the UK but eye candy is always good when shopping.

Twilight

TWILIGHT is an action-packed, modern-day love story between a teenage girl and a vampire. Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) has always been a little bit different, never caring about fitting in with the trendy girls at her Phoenix high school.  When her mother re-marries and sends Bella to live with her father in the rainy little town of Forks, Washington, she doesn't expect much of anything to change.  Then she meets the mysterious and dazzlingly beautiful Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), a boy unlike any she's ever met. 

Edward is a vampire, but he doesn't have fangs and his family is unique in that they choose not to drink human blood.  Intelligent and witty, Edward sees straight into Bella's soul.  Soon, they are swept up in a passionate, thrilling and unorthodox romance.  To Edward, Bella is what he has waited 90 years for - a soul mate.  But the closer they get, the more Edward must struggle to resist the primal pull of her scent, which could send him into an uncontrollable frenzy. 

But what will Edward & Bella do when a clan of new vampires - James (Cam Gigandet), Laurent (Edi Gathegi) and Victoria (Rachelle Lefevre) - come to town and threaten to disrupt their way of life?

Zac Efron

Zac Efron is said to be looking for a mid-seven-figure salary and script approval before signing a contract with the filmmakers.

"There's a lot of wrong ways to do this movie," the Daily Telegraph quoted Efron as telling Variety magazine.    "It's a matter of finding the right balance. Until we find it, I can't fully ..." he paused trying to find a word.    "... I can't finish that sentence," he said abruptly.    As the conversation moved on to the next topic, he finally finds the word.    "Commit. Until I fully commit," he stated.

Even though Efron at times may say what he wants, he somehow seems to catch himself and revert back to his script. But Ortega is confident that the actor will do very well with the new role.

"Its like life imitating the movies - suddenly (the cast) has come of age as young people. The light of the future is shining brightly into their eyes, begging them to make decisions that will impact on the rest of their lives," Ortega said.

"I see the characters and the actors as having arrived in the same place at the same time.

"But I have great confidence in them, their families and the teams they have around them, that they're going to make good choices. They are all wise beyond their years. They have a sense of humour. They're sensible, humbled by the attention. They're going to do good," he added.

Chace Crawford

GOSSIP GIRL star CHACE CRAWFORD has sparked rumours he is set to make his London stage debut - after meeting with producers at one of the city's most prestigious theatres.

The actor is said to be keen take on a role in an upcoming production and was recently photographed in central London meeting with bosses at the city's Donmar Warehouse.

A string of well-known stars have used the stage at the North London venue to test their acting mettle, including Gwyneth Paltrow and Nicole Kidman, who famously stripped off for her role in Sam Mendes' production of The Blue Room

Justin Bruening

What kind of a driver is Justin Bruening, star of the new ''Knight Rider''?    ''A [darn] good one,'' he says quickly.   He'd have to be. The stunt-filled action series (7 p.m. Wednesdays, NBC) has Bruening as secret agent Michael Traceur, who is behind the wheel of the world's most sophisticated automobile, KITT. A stunt driver has been teaching Bruening, primarily a soap opera actor until now, how to handle the show's vehicle for weeks.

''I'm learning a 'reverse 180,' how to fly the car into camera without hitting any folks,'' he says. ''It's really nerve-racking.   ''It's not that I am not comfortable behind the wheel. It's the fact that 30 people are standing behind the camera and I have to slide the car to a certain point in the stunt so I don't hurt them.''

His stunt mentor can come within 2 inches of the crew, Bruening brags. The actor, though, admits he's not quite that good yet. But ''I want to be good enough to handle a car that well,'' he says.     Of course, Bruening says he has some bad driving habits to break along the way. He listens to Metallica and other rock bands ''full blast'' as he's cruising down the highway with his wife, actress Alexa Havins, sitting next to him. But he says he's rarely been in trouble over his driving.

''I haven't had a speeding ticket since I was in college,'' he says, ''and even then I was in a speed trap.''    The 29-year-old Bruening hasn't always been in such a rush. Growing up in Nebraska, he says he's always had a yearning to stretch himself but never knew what to do about it.

''I had about 10 different majors in college but none of them seemed to fit,'' he says.    Once he got into acting, his life went full-throttle. He landed a role on ABC's ''All My Children,'' where he met his wife. After leaving the soap four years later, he tried out for prime-time parts.

He landed ''Knight Rider'' through an audition. The series has been a clear hit for NBC and was recently picked up for the entire season.    Fight stunts, Bruening can handle. Commanding his TV Mustang is another matter altogether. He's even taking his work home with him.     ''I'm really into my video games,'' he says.

 

His favorite?   '''Grand Theft Auto IV,''' he says with a laugh. ''It lets me work out my aggression of KITT.''
