The 'Arrow' cast says goodbye to Tommy Merlyn: Emily Bett Rickards, Colton Haynes, and more weigh in on Colin Donnell
8 hours ago | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
Saying goodbye to a favorite character when he or she is killed off of a TV show is always tough for the audience -- but behind the scenes, it can be rough on the team behind the show, too.
When Colin Donnell found out that his character, Tommy, would die in the "Arrow" Season 1 finale, he was understandably surprised... as was series lead Stephen Amell.
When they learned about Tommy's fate, Donnell and Amell met for coffee to commiserate. "It was -- words that you can't say on TV," Amell says. "Credit to [Colin], not that he wasn't professional before, because he was, and he was a wonderful actor before, but you can do what he did which is step it up and kill it, no pun intended, for the rest of the season. He really stepped up his game."
It's clear that Donnell was far from expendable to the rest of the "Arrow" cast. »

Brief Synopses for Lionsgate’s Cannes Sales Including The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Parts 1 & 2, Draft Day, Venus In Fur, John Wick, and More
17 hours ago | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
The Cannes Film Festival, like most major film festivals, is where studios deal behind the scenes to acquire films, although Cannes has the added touch of also packaging movies (which is why we've seen so many casting stories) and selling existing properties to foreign buyers. Lionsgate managed to sell nine of their movies, and their press release contains brief synopses for each of the films. Some confirm what we already know, some provide new information, and some are Step Up 5 ("Fifth installment of Summit Entertainment’s successful Step Up franchise"). Hit the jump for the synopses as well as the cast and above-the-line crew. The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Parts 1 & 2 (ColorForce, Lionsgate) Cast: Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson, Liam Hemsworth, Woody Harrelson, Elizabeth Banks, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Jeffrey Wright, Stanley Tucci, Donald Sutherland Director: Francis Lawrence Writer: Danny Strong Producers: Nina Jacobson and Jon Kilik Brief Synopsis: In Mockingjay Parts 1 & 2, we »

I wonder where Peeta is. Check out the latest poster for Francis Lawrence’s “The Hunger Games: Catching Fire”, which finds Katniss standing tall with her bow and arrow. I bet she’s trying to shoot down a bird. You know, to eat. Probably. They should call it “Catching Bird”. Heh. Ahem. Against all odds, Katniss Everdeen has won the annual Hunger Games with fellow district tribute Peeta Mellark. But it was a victory won by defiance of the Capitol and their harsh rules. Katniss and Peeta should be happy. After all, they have just won for themselves and their families a life of safety and plenty. But there are rumors of rebellion among the subjects, and Katniss and Peeta, to their horror, are the faces of that rebellion. The Capitol is angry. The Capitol wants revenge.

'Arrow' Season 1 finale: Colin Donnell speaks out on Tommy's terrible fate and what's next
15 May 2013 7:00 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
The theme of tonight's "Arrow" finale, titled "Sacrifice," was unconditional love. Colin Donnell's character, Tommy Merlyn, made the ultimate sacrifice. After discovering that his father is the Dark Archer, Tommy made every effort to stop him. When he couldn't, he rushed to Cnri to save Laurel -- despite her hookup with Oliver, he still loved her.
Unconditionally.
Oliver, rushing to Cnri to save Laurel, found Tommy instead, trapped beneath the rubble and bleeding out. In their final moments together, the men -- who grew up together as boys, practically brothers -- shared a beautiful, heartfelt goodbye. Despite what we thought, these guys were never meant to be enemies. They were opposite sides of the same coin, allies through and through, in every sense of the world.
It's a sad moment -- particularly for those of us who were looking forward to Tommy's potential descent into villainy and his ultimate »
