Exploring everything from strong friendships, and first loves, to humorous mishaps and heartbreaks, the series is a story of life, with an edgy comedic tone all its own.

– Gotham follows one cop, destined for greatness, as he navigates a dangerously corrupt city teetering between good and evil, and chronicles the rise of the great DC Comics Super-Villains and vigilantes.

The riveting mystery, that will be resolved in 10 parts, follows a tragic death, and the major police investigation and nationwide media frenzy that subsequently overtake a picturesque seaside town, where anyone is a suspect.

– Mulaney stars Emmy Award-winning writer and comedian John Mulaney as a rising stand-up comic trying to take his career to the next level, and the friends and mentors, including one played by Martin Short, who lift him up, hold him back and push him around.

Autumn Reeser Talks About ‘Midnight Masquerade,’ a Twisted Cinderella Tale

Autumn Reeser (Hawaii Five-0, Last Resort) takes on the lead role in the upcoming Hallmark movie Midnight Masquerade premiering on October 18, 2014 at 9pm ET/PT. The film’s a gender-bending twist on Cinderella, and Reeser, a veteran of Hallmark productions, was happy to take on the lead in a project that spins the classic tale.

During the 2014 Summer Television Critics Association press tour, I chatted briefly with Reeser about what audiences can expect from this upcoming romantic film.

The Midnight Masquerade Plot:

A beautiful young businesswoman’s life takes a turn when she inherits a billion-dollar candy company. On Halloween night, she shares a dance with a handsome and mysterious “prince” at a masked costume ball and yearns for the love and romance her life has been missing. Meanwhile, a plan is hatched to swindle her out of her fortune. Will she find love with her mysterious “prince,” and will he be able to save her from losing her fortune?

Autumn Reeser Interview

How would you describe Midnight Masquerade?

Autumn Reeser: “It’s a reverse Cinderella story. My character is the CEO of a candy company and she meets a prince – shall we say – at a bar, and then she can’t find him.”

Does he leave a piece of footwear behind?

Autumn Reeser: [Laughing] “Sort of, yes. There’s a thing with shoes and there’s a thing with a missing object. I don’t want to spoil things.”

What kind of person is she before she meets the prince?

Autumn Reeser: “She’s just taken over for her father. She’s a professional woman who has sort of had to undertake more responsibility than she’s had in the past and is getting used to running a company.”

How long was the shoot?

Autumn Reeser: “It was about two and a half weeks. I was in Canada with my husband and both of our babies and our nanny in tow. [Laughing] When I travel now it’s like traveling with an entourage of people. It’s an entire production in and of itself because the babies are so small. My youngest was four months when I shot the movie.”

Speaking of Entourage, do you show up in the movie?

Autumn Reeser: “No.”

What do you think happened to your character after the series ended?

Autumn Reeser: “She moved her way up. I have no doubt that Lizzie Grant was successful in Hollywood. She’s a shark.”

Have you ever worked as fast as this shoot?

Autumn Reeser: “I did another movie a couple of years ago for Hallmark called Love at the Thanksgiving Day Parade, so I had worked on a similar time frame.”

How did you get involved in this particular film?

Autumn Reeser: “They sent me a script and asked me if I’d like to do it. And I liked the sort of feminist take – if you will – on the Cinderella story. I thought it was an interesting way of retelling it. I had such a great experience working with Hallmark in the past that I wanted to work with them again. They take great care of me and my family, and I had a wonderful experience on the movie.”

Is it a well oiled machine now?

Autumn Reeser: “I think every one is different. I don’t think you can compare one to the other. This one, I had a great time. There were a lot of really nice people. I went to a part of Canada that I’d never been to before, so I really enjoyed that.”

Daniel Radcliffe Discusses ‘A Young Doctor’s Notebook and Other Stories’

Daniel Radcliffe Interview on A Young Doctor's Notebook — Daniel Radcliffe and Jon Hamm in ‘A Young Doctor’s Notebook’ (Photo Courtesy of Ovation)

Daniel Radcliffe took time away from working on “The Cripple of Inishmaan” on Broadway to talk about the critically acclaimed series A Young Doctor’s Notebook and Other Stories, based on Russian playwright Mikhail Bulgakov’s writings. Chatting about the series live via satellite during the summer Television Critics Association press tour, Radcliffe opened up about his character in the series, working with Jon Hamm, and the initial attraction of the limited TV series.

Details on season 2 (courtesy of Ovation): “This new season finds our protagonist young doctor (Radcliffe) in evermore challenging predicaments – emotionally and physically. His addiction reaches new and desperate extremes, while his relationship with Pelageya (Rosie Cavaliero) is challenged by the introduction of a beautiful aristocrat, Natasha (Margaret Clunie). Despite counsel from his older and wiser self (Hamm), the doctor plunges into a state of panic. And in the backdrop, the battle between the Bolsheviks and the Russian army wages on; not only producing a great divide in loyalties, but also delivering many gruesome casualties to the over-taxed country hospital’s doorstep.”

Season two of A Young Doctor’s Notebook and Other Stories will premiere on Ovation on Tuesday, August 19, 2014 at 10pm ET/PT.

Last season you were in a bathtub with Jon Hamm. This season we’ve seen a clip of you two dancing.  What’s the vibe like on set between the two of you?

Daniel Radcliffe: “On the whole this series is an incredibly fun one to film. Jon is a very funny guy and we are very irreverent, and yeah, we have a lot of fun. Doing like the bath scene in the first series was one that we kind of, as soon as we both got in it, we were like, ‘Oh, man, this photo is going to go everywhere!’ So you were aware of the bizarreness of the situation.   But actually, like, dancing with Jon in this series was great fun. I had to dip him at one point, which was not easy. And, you know, yeah, we got a couple of lifts in there as well. So, yeah, it’s incredibly fun working with him. I remember there was one sequence in the first series before we actually had a stunt coordinator who had been assigned for the show, and so for the first three days we didn’t have a stunt coordinator but we had a fight scene to do. And Jon essentially just choreographed this fight scene himself in about 15 minutes, and it was funny. It was sort of action-packed and kind of frenetic and everything we needed it to be. So, yeah, I think his experience working and directing Mad Men as well means he’s sort of a brilliant technical actor as well as being very good fun to hang around with.”

What did you think about the reaction to the photo of the bathtub scene?

Daniel Radcliffe: “It was as expected, I suppose. I mean, I think we definitely knew that would be a shot to pique people’s interest. The funny thing about that scene, actually, was that it wasn’t a particularly funny scene. It was very much a scene where there’s a huge plot point in that episode is being established, and it’s actually quite tragic. So I think it was – and I think the writers will admit this as well – is that they were very much just going, ‘This isn’t a very funny scene. We need to do something to make it funnier. We’ll put them in a bath.’ So I think that was kind of the thought behind that. ”

What’s it like to look at Jon Hamm and think of him as an older version of you? And what about the fact that as you get older, your character grows six inches? 

Daniel Radcliffe: “I mean, it’s obviously incredibly flattering, and it was incredibly flattering that he suggested me to play the young him, which is an incredible compliment. But I think with the height difference, we were just like the show is so crazy anyway that people are either going to just go with it and be enjoying the show so much that they don’t care about that. Or if they get hung up on that, then there’s going to be plenty of other logical problems that they are going to find with us, I’m sure. So it definitely wasn’t something we lingered on too much in terms of worrying about that. I think it was then about just finding the points where we could find parallels between me and Jon and just link our characters together. So there’s a little fidgety tick that both Jon and I’s characters have when we are nervous and we fiddle with our ear, which kind of links us together. And, then, we also do a couple of match cuts where it’s sort of…I think in the first series it’s when I’m lighting a cigarette and then on the third strike of the match, it changes from Jon to me. So we do visual stuff to connect the two and hopefully keep reminding people that we are, in fact, the same person. ”

This is based on Russian writings. Is there something different about the Russian sensibility than a British sensibility or an American sensibility in the material? 

Daniel Radcliffe: “I don’t know. I think, actually, there’s something kind of similar about the Russian sensibility to the English sense of humor and finding comedy out of incredibly dark places. And there’s also a certain amount of joy taken in the bleakness of Russia and of England and, sort of, in the stories I think we tell about ourselves. There’s a certain degree of reveling in the misery of it all. I think those are two things that mean it translates very well from taking a Russian story and having it adaptable and performed by English people. I think that’s something we kind of relate to and get.   And while I don’t think it’s a particularly American sensibility, I do think that America loves dark comedy. Like, I’m doing an incredibly dark comedy on Broadway at the moment and people are loving it. So I don’t think there’s any sense of it being too dark or anything for people over here because, in my experience, you’ve got the same twisted sense of humor as I have. ”

You’ve been doing a wide range of projects showing off your diversity as an actor. Do you do this consciously to take away all first thoughts of Harry Potter or is it just because of the joy of doing such diverse projects? 

Daniel Radcliffe: “It really is about that, about the fact that that’s the most exciting way of doing my job, I think, is to try and do as many different styles of film [and] of TV shows and theater. There’s a part of me that I think it is connected to Potter but maybe not in the way that everyone thinks where everyone kind of just thinks, ‘Oh, he’s doing all of this to put that behind him and get away from it.’   And, actually, I think what it is more is because I played one character for such a long time – and particularly towards the end of that ten year period – I started seeing other British actors (Aaron Johnson and Eddie Redmayne and Ben Whishaw) and lots of people I look up to who go off and do loads of different projects and try lots of different things. I think there’s a little bit of envy and it sort of builds up inside yourself, that desire to just try as many different things as possible. So, yeah, I guess now that I’m in a position that I can do that, I’m trying to while the going is good.”

Does this type of short order series make it more likely for you to consider a TV project fitting in among the theater and film projects you are working on? 

Daniel Radcliffe: “I mean, definitely. I think that’s the thing with this. The writers of this show, who are three brilliant individuals, are fantastically clever and funny, but they all say that, ‘If you want to get a TV show greenlit, tell them you have Jon Hamm and Daniel Radcliffe for four weeks over the summer.’ He said that as soon as they had us and we’d agreed to do it, and we both had this very tight window that we could do it in, everything just moved very quickly.   So I think for us, for this show, it would have been impossible to do it if it filmed for any longer than four weeks, and I think we condensed Jon’s stuff into just about two and a half weeks of the shoot.

It’s a very intense thing, and for both of us – especially with all of his other commitments that he has for TV – it wouldn’t have been possible for us to do this if it was any longer than four episodes, really. I think there’s also something nice about the idea of doing this show because, you know, if this show had been made in America by and American network originally, it would have been the case that they would have had to have at least 12 or 13 episodes at a minimum. And the book doesn’t really lend itself to that. These are short stories to begin with, and they are something that to pad them out too much would have been…I don’t think would have worked. I think it offers some freedom in the British system of what we can do, and I think some interesting things are happening now in British TV. But I also don’t think there’s nowhere near the, if you will pardon me for being vulgar, the money that is in American TV is not something that British TV has at the moment. I was having this conversation with a friend last night and a lot of times TV shows over here or an episode of a TV thing is like an one hour long beautiful indie movie. They are all individually amazing works of art.”

You grew up in the world of U.K. TV. From your point of view what makes a good U.S. adaptation of a U.K. show and what is less successful? 

Daniel Radcliffe: “That’s an interesting question. I think the only show that I immediately comes to mind is The Office, and I think what’s interesting about that show’s American incarnation is that I actually now prefer the American Office to the British Office, and that’s something I never thought I would say. But, well, I was 14. But I do think that once they moved beyond that point in the first or second series, maybe, where they were still doing episodes that had sort of been done in the British Office and they were just able to establish their own things. Their characters were all developed in different and new and original ways that were entirely of the American series, that’s when it really comes into its own for me and becomes a brilliant, exciting series. So I guess it’s that thing of I don’t think that you need to be rigidly [an] adaptation. I think always in adaptation, you have to take things into account for who your audience is and how that will make a difference. And so I think, in terms of adapting British things, I would say don’t pay too much mind to the Britishness of it all because we made it for us, I guess, would be the argument there. ”

Coming back for season two, what was that experience like for you because it seems like that’s the first time you’ve come back to a character after a time away since Harry Potter?

Daniel Radcliffe: “Right. In that sense, I suppose it felt very familiar. There was something about going back and seeing the same crew and a lot of the same cast, obviously. The continuity of that was very reassuring and comforting. It’s always nice when you get to work with people because so often in the industry you make a film with somebody and you become really close, and then you go, ‘Okay. Well, you know, we’ll…,’ you don’t see each other as much as you should, and it’s hard to keep up. So it’s always nice when a job brings you back together. And, yeah, it was lovely coming back for the second series. I think the writers did a really fantastic job in expanding that world because, obviously, the big difference between the first series is [that is is] probably the only show set in Russia in 1917, which features almost no mentions of the Revolution whatsoever. And so in the second series, their big choice was to bring that history into the series and have some fun with it. ”

Playing a doctor, do you ever cringe at the different things that medical people did back then or perhaps they are still doing today? Have you visited any ERs?

Daniel Radcliffe: “Well, the most revealing conversations I had was with a friend of mine’s younger brother who is just out of or just about to leave medical school and was really in the same place that my character was in in the first series of having going from learning about all of this and studying it and watching people do it to actually being responsible for people’s lives yourself. And it is terrifying. When we were talking to our medical consultant about the differences in surgery then and now, it is quite terrifying. I suppose in this series we are just at the point where going to the doctor was more likely to help you than hurt you, but before the 1900s if you went to a doctor, they were just as likely to do something to you that might kill you as they were to help you. So, yeah, there’s a lot of grim humor that I think we’ve got, particularly with the tooth-pulling scene and the amputation scene. And there’s a few in the second series that are just as, hopefully, hilariously grotesque. ”

J.K. Rowling posted a new Harry Potter story and she had an adult Harry at a Quidditch World Cup. Careerwise, is it something you would do? Would you reprise the role as an adult? 

Daniel Radcliffe: “I mean, I don’t know. I don’t. My inclination is to say no because this is… [It’s] also a question that is not even a hypothetical at the moment, really. I mean, what she’s written, I haven’t read it yet. I am going to read it. But it is, as I understand, a very, very short piece that I’m not sure is, of itself, worthy of adaptation to film. I don’t know. He’s at least, sort of, 12 years older than I am now. So, you know, I don’t think I’ll have to worry about that for a long time, I’m hoping.”

July 10, 2014

Orphan Black and Broadchurch Get Renewed — Alison (Tatiany Maslany) and Sarah (Tatiana Maslany) in ‘Orphan Black’ (Photo Credit: © Steve Wilkie for BBC AMERICA)

It’s official: BBC America’s Perry Simon confirmed Orphan Black and Broadchurch will both be returning with all new episodes in 2015. Orphan Black‘s third season will consist of 10 episodes starring, of course, Tatiana Maslany. The renewal order was a real no-brainer as the show’s doubled its ratings and set a new series high record with the season two finale.

Graeme Manson and John Fawcett co-created the award-winning series and executive produce along with Ivan Schneeberg and David Fortier. In addition to Maslany, the Orphan Black cast includes Jordan Gavaris, Dylan Bruce, Maria Doyle Kennedy, Skyler Wexler, Kevin Hanchard, Evelyne Brochu, Kristian Bruun, Michael Mando and Matt Frewer.

Broadchurch‘s second season will find David Tennant, Olivia Colman, Jodie Whittaker, Andrew Buchan and Arthur Darvill reprising their roles, and they’ll be joined by Charlotte Rampling, Marianne Jean-Baptiste, James D’Arcy, Eve Myles and Phoebe Waller-Bridge when the series returns in 2015. Currently in production in Dorset and North Somerset, England, season two’s episodes one and two will be directed by James Strong who also helmed five episodes from season one.

‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ Brings Back the ’70s (Whether or Not That’s a Good Thing is Up for Debate)

Rebecca Murray

July 10, 2014

“Hooked on a Feeling,” “Cherry Bomb,” and “Spirit in the Sky” are among the classic ’70s tunes that made it onto the soundtrack for Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy. Set for release on July 29, 2014 – just a few days before Guardians of the Galaxy opens in theaters – the deluxe soundtrack features a handful of ’70s songs as well as Tyler Bates’ score.

Director James Gunn said music is integral to the story. “One of the main story points in the movie is that Quill has this compilation tape [Awesome Mix #1] that he got from his mother before she died that she made for him. It was of songs that she loved, all songs from the 1970s, and that’s the only thing he has left of his mother and that’s the only thing he has left of his home on Earth. He uses that as a connection to his past and to the sadness that he feels of having left all that and lost all that.”

“I’ve worked very hard early on with Tyler Bates, our composer, whom I’ve done three other movies with, to write part of the score ahead of time so that I’m able to use it on set for big emotional sequences and big action sequences,” explained Gunn. “We can actually play the music on set and the actors can really understand where we’re going with it tonally. Our actors have a much better idea of what this film is because of the music that we use, both score and soundtrack.”

Awesome Mix Tape, Vol. 1 Track List

1. “Hooked on a Feeling” Performed by Blue Swede
2. “Go All the Way” Performed by Raspberries
3. “Spirit in the Sky”* Performed by Norman Greenbaum
4. “Moonage Daydream” Performed by David Bowie
5. “Fooled Around and Fell in Love” Performed by Elvin Bishop
6. “I’m Not in Love” Performed by 10cc
7. “I Want You Back” Performed by Jackson 5
8. “Come and Get Your Love” Performed by Redbone
9. “Cherry Bomb” Performed by The Runaways
10. “Escape (The Piña Colada Song)” Performed by Rupert Holmes
11. “O-O-H Child” Performed by The Five Stairsteps
12. “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough” Performed by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell
*Not in film

The Guardians of the Galaxy Plot:

From Marvel, the studio that brought you the global blockbuster franchises of Iron Man, Thor, Captain America and The Avengers, comes a new team–the Guardians of the Galaxy. An action-packed, epic space adventure, Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy expands the Marvel Cinematic Universe into the cosmos, where brash adventurer Peter Quill finds himself the object of an unrelenting bounty hunt after stealing a mysterious orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain with ambitions that threaten the entire universe.

To evade the ever-persistent Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with a quartet of disparate misfits–Rocket, a gun-toting raccoon, Groot, a tree-like humanoid, the deadly and enigmatic Gamora and the revenge-driven Drax the Destroyer. But when Quill discovers the true power of the orb and the menace it poses to the cosmos, he must do his best to rally his ragtag rivals for a last, desperate stand–with the galaxy’s fate in the balance.

‘The Killing’ Shows Off Two Killer Posters

Rebecca Murray

July 10, 2014

The Killing (aka The Show That Wouldn’t Die) is set to premiere all of season four’s episodes on August 1, 2014 only on Netflix, and in support of the upcoming premiere Netflix is showing off two character posters. Mireille Enos as Detective Linden gets her own poster, as does Joel Kinnaman who returns to play Detective Holder in this “final” season of the drama series.

The Killing Season 4 Plot:

The fourth and final season of The Killing picks up right after the season 3 finale. As Detective Linden (Enos) and Detective Holder (Kinnaman) struggle to manage the fallout from their rash actions at the end of last season, they are assigned a new case — a picture perfect family is murdered, survived only by the son, Kyle Stansbury (Tyler Ross), who was shot in the head during the massacre. Joan Allen guest stars this season as Colonel Margaret Rayne, the headmaster of the all-boys military academy where Kyle attends. The new season also stars Gregg Henry, Sterling Beaumon and Levi Meaden.

OneRepublic Music Video Unveils New Footage from ‘The Giver’

OneRepublic’s “Ordinary Human” is featured in the upcoming sci-fi thriller The Giver and the music video actually shows off some brand new footage from the much-anticipated film. Based on the critically acclaimed novel by Lois Lowry, The Giver comes to the big screen with Jeff Bridges, Brenton Thwaites, Meryl Streep, Katie Holmes, Alexander Skarsgard, Cameron Monaghan, Odeya Rush, and Taylor Swift in starring roles.

The Plot:

The haunting story of The Giver centers on Jonas (Brenton Thwaites), a young man who lives in a seemingly ideal, if colorless, world of conformity and contentment. Yet as he begins to spend time with The Giver (Jeff Bridges), who is the sole keeper of all the community’s memories, Jonas quickly begins to discover the dark and deadly truths of his community’s secret past. With this newfound power of knowledge, he realizes that the stakes are higher than imagined – a matter of life and death for himself and those he loves most. At extreme odds, Jonas knows that he must escape their world to protect them all – a challenge that no one has ever succeeded at before.

The Giver opens in theaters on August 15, 2014.
