Taraji Henson & Chapman PERSON OF INTEREST Comic Con Interview

Taraji Henson & Chapman PERSON OF INTEREST Interview By: Beevers SandwichJohnFilms had the chance to attend the press junket for the hit TV show PERSON OF INTEREST at Comic-Con 2012. Being that this is MattInRC's favorite, it's only fitting that he sat down with the cast while I stood back and let him do his thing. If you’re a fan of the show (and frankly who isn’t), you know the season finale featured several unexpected turns that left our heroes separated and Reese turning to an unlikely ally for help. Stars Michael Emerson (Finch), Jim Caveizel (Reese), Taraji Henson (Carter) and Kevin Chapman (Fusco) joined series creator Jonathan Nolan and producer Greg Plageman to discuss the show and its unique premise. Next up we sat down with Detective Joss Carter ( Taraji P. Henson ): A NYPD detective and a single mother with a teenaged son, Taylor. Carter is a former U.S. Army interrogator who passed the bar in 2004, but gave up practicing the law to return to

No Marvel Studios At Comic-Con This Year

Don’t expect the Avengers to reassemble in Hall H at Comic-Con International in July. The official word from Marvel Studios is that their team will sit out the Hollywood previews in the 6,000-seat hall, where fans, bloggers and journalists from around the world come to see filmmakers and stars introduce and promote their upcoming spectacle movies. Last year, Marvel delivered a thunderclap moment by lining up the cast of “ The Avengers ” on stage — it was a surprise parade of stars that included Robert Downey Jr., Samuel L. Jackson, Scarlett Johansson and Chris Evans as well as director Joss Whedon. But with that movie now filming in New Mexico, the studio leaders decided that, as far as Hall H goes, it wasn’t prepared to compete with its own past and wild fan expectations. “Go big or stay home,” is how one Marvel insider put it, and that logic is seemingly embraced by rival Warner Bros. with “Man of Steel,” the 2012 feature-film revival of Superman that is conspicuously absen

Mattel Exclusive Comic-Con 2010

Mattel Collectibles Exclusive For Comic-Con 2010 If you have ever been to Comic-Con then you know how crazy it gets, when you try to get your hand on Exclusive items from all the different booths. This year will be no different. G4 got the first look at the exclusives that Mattel will be offing this year. * Masters of the Universe Classics Skeletor and Mo-Larr from the Robot Chicken sketch – we saw this set at Mattel’s collector event at Toy Fair. Skeletor is missing a tooth, like he is at the end of the sketch. * Masters of the Universe Classics Orko – comes with a Prince Adam “accessory.” Adam, a fully-articulated figure, was positioned in the package sideways below Orko, obscured partially by standard packaging. When you dip Orko in hot water, he turns transparent and “disappears.” When you dip his spellbook in hot water, the SDCC logo appears. I imagine the SDCC logo is exclusive to the version that will be sold at SDCC, but I’m not sure if Orko’s disappearing act is

NBC's Chuck Season Spoiler

NBC's Chuck Season Spoiler Looks like EW has a Buy More mole just tipped me off that Josh Schwartz is casting younger versions of Chuck and Ellie ( 7 and 11, respectively) to appear in a flashback sequence in Chuck’s season finale. No other details were provided, but I spy a connection between this and Scott Bakula’s return as Bartowski patriarch Steve. Also, if you recall, Schwartz recently declared that Bakula’s Chuck comeback arc would be “the biggest thing we’ve ever done on the show.” Put it all together and what do you get?

Zachary Levi Or Chuck Talks Where He Sees Show Headed

Zachary Levi Or Chuck Talks Where He Sees Show Headed What does Zachary Levi, or Chuck's Chuck, want for his character when he returns for the third season? Levi would like to see "The birth of a superhero, you know," he admitted when he sat down for an interview with Televisionary (aka Jace) just after production had started last fall. In the just-released video interview, Levi offered his thoughts about our favorite bumbling spy, who may not be quite as bumbling now that his brain has been upgraded with the Intersect 2.0 giving him mad physical spy skills to go with his ability to flash on the government secrets installed in his head. "I think as he starts to get more of a handle on the Intersect and all that stuff, and just trains in the everyday stuff," said Levi, "he's going to become what fate had always meant for him to become, which was the best spy in the world." However, Levi also sounds pretty excited at the thought of playing Chuck, Act

NBC's Chuck A Threat To Fox's House?

NBC's Chuck A Threat To Fox's House? No amount of apples will keep the doctor away from the Chuck premiere. Fox has moved up the date for the next original episode of House to Jan. 11, a Fox spokeswoman confirmed. The move pits the hit drama against the season premiere of NBC's underdog Chuck, announced last month. It also comes two days after NBC announced its midseason schedule. House previously was scheduled to return to the Fox lineup Jan. 25 in the Mondays at 8 p.m. time slot. The second half of the two-night, four-hour 24 premiere is still scheduled for Monday Jan. 18. House originals will resume on Jan. 25. CBS has been winning Mondays with its comedy block and CSI: Miami and has not announced any changes to that schedule in midseason. Since Dancing With the Stars ended, ABC has been filling the 8-10 block with holiday specials, Find My Family reality show and then Castle has been running at 10. The Bachelor returns to ABC Mondays from 8-10 starting Jan. 4. Related

NBC Chuck's 11 Season 3 Spoilers Revealed

NBC Chuck's 11 Season 3 Spoilers Revealed We're in for the most awesome season of Chuck ever! In fact, Chuck star Zachary Levi and the producers of the NBC comic spy series promise Chuck will be at his most bumbling, glitchiest and butt-kicking best when the series premieres its third season on Sunday, Jan. 10, at 9 p.m. with two enormous episodes. And if that's not enough for the Chuckites of the world, another mammoth episode will air in the show's regular timeslot the next day on Monday at 8 p.m. "For two years I kind of sat on the sidelines and watched Adam Baldwin and Yvonne Strahovski, Casey and Sarah respectively, kick bad guys' butts and was very jealous of that," said Levi during a conference call with journalists, which also included executive producers Josh Schwartz and Chris Fedak. "Not that Chuck should have been able to do it at that point. He was much better at running away or screaming like a little girl. But now that he has this new I
