Jean-Pierre Jeunet Assembles Main Cast for ‘T.S. Spivet’
16 May 2012 6:25 PM, PDT | The Film Stage | See recent The Film Stage news »
You wouldn’t typically forget that Jean-Pierre Jeunet has a new film waiting to spring forth, but such is the effect of a mere initial announcement that, by this point, is almost six months old. It is, nevertheless, still odd that a beloved director could start to shape a film that sounds so perfect for his own sensibilities, will see him try out some different avenues (English/3D), and is also based on a relatively popular book.
However, Variety have reminded us by way of casting news, having learned that newcomer Kyle Catlett, Helena Bonham Carter, Kathy Bates, and Callum Keith Rennie (Californication) are signed to star in The Selected Works of T.S. Spivet, his adaptation of the children’s novel by Reif Larson; both center on a young boy, T.S. Spivet (Catlett), whose obsession with cartography lands him an award from Washington, D.C.’s Smithsonian Museum. »

Helena Bonham-Carter And Kathy Bates Sign On To Jean-Pierre Jeunet's 'The Young And Prodigious Spivet'
16 May 2012 5:12 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
Given that he directed one of the most successful French films of all time, in the shape of 2001's still-delightful "Amelie," it's surprising that director Jean-Pierre Jeunet hasn't worked in Hollywood more. But then again, given that his only English-language picture to date was the woeful "Alien: Resurrection," perhaps it's not so surprising after all. Hollywood has come calling, of course: the director was courted to make films including "Life of Pi," "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" and "Mirror Mirror," but he's generally preferred to march to the beat of his own drum, with two French-language pictures in the last decade, the underrated "A Very Long Engagement," and the slight, but enjoyable, "MicMacs."
But finally, Jeunet is about to cross the Atlantic again: since last year, he's been working on a second-English language feature, a 3D adaptation of Reif Larsen's cult 2009 novel "The Selected Works Of T. »

Bonham Carter Finds A Spivet
16 May 2012 3:07 PM, PDT | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »
A little less than a year ago, news arrived that Amelie / Micmacs filmmaker Jean-Pierre Jeunet was ready to jump into his next job, and, even more excitingly, back to English for his first film since that one we don’t really talk about. You know, the one set in the Alien universe… But all eyes are now on The Young And Prodigious Spivet, which has just added Helena Bonham Carter and Kathy Bates to its cast. Jeunet adapted the script from Rief Larson’s novel The Selected Works Of Ts Spivet, working with regular collaborator Guillaume Laurent.Spivet revolves around the titular youngster (Kyle Catlett) a boy boasting extraordinary navigation and other skills who leaves his father (Callum Keith Rennie) and the rest of his family behind in Montana to head out on a cross-country quest to the Smithsonian in Washington to receive a prize.While Jeunet has said that »
The Firm: Cancelled, No Season Two?
12 May 2012 7:56 PM, PDT | TVSeriesFinale.com | See recent TVSeriesFinale news »
It's been a rough road for Mitch MicDeere. Now, it's come to an end -- at least on NBC. The Firm has been cancelled after one season of 22 episodes.
The Firm picks up years after the young attorney (Josh Lucas) made his deal with the mob to take his old crooked law firm down. He and his family have come out of hiding but their problems haven't gone away. The show also stars Molly Parker, Callum Keith Rennie, Juliette Lewis, Natasha Calis, Tricia Helfer, Martin Donovan, Shaun Majumder, and Paulino Nunes.
The series represented one of NBC's biggest launches of the season but it misfired right from the start. The two-hour premiere brought in a dismal 1.4 rating in the 18-49 demographic with just 6.32 million viewers.

The Killing’s Mireille Enos on the Backlash, the Emmy Nod, and All the Gum Chewing
30 March 2012 3:00 PM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
Mireille Enos got her break playing twin sisters JoDean and Kathy Marquart in Big Love, but today she’s best known for her role as Sarah Linden on The Killing. As a detective tracking down the killer of teenager Rosie Larsen, Enos has already scored an Emmy nomination, but she’s also had her first taste of fan backlash. When last year’s season one finale failed to reveal Rosie’s killer, viewers revolted with a vengeance. They expected a resolution, not a cliffhanger. Enos spoke to Vulture about the haters, season two, and all the gum chewing.After seeing the premiere, all I can say is, "poor Callum Keith Rennie [who plays her neglected fiancé]." At this rate, he’s never going to get a scene that’s not on a telephone, is he?Oh, poor Callum. Poor Callum. Well, you might see his face. I have to say, you must have jaws of »

The Firm: New NBC Drama; Cancel or Keep It?
12 January 2012 10:11 PM, PST | TVSeriesFinale.com | See recent TVSeriesFinale news »
On Sunday, NBC unveiled their first big show of 2012 -- The Firm. It's based on the novel by John Grisham which had previously been adapted into a 1993 movie. The network has had mixed results basing shows on previous material. Prime Suspect and Bionic Woman were cancelled. Friday Night Lights and Parenthood have been moderate successes. Where will this one land?
The Firm revolves around attorney Mitch McDeere (Josh Lucas) who, along with his wife Abby (Molly Parker) and their daughter Claire (Natasha Calis), had been in the witness protection program for 10 years. They relocate to Washington, DC to restart their lives but problems from the past start to surface once more. The show's cast also includes Callum Keith Rennie, Juliette Lewis, Tricia Helfer, and Shaun Majumder.

Juliette Lewis Talks The Firm and Future Projects
11 January 2012 8:02 PM, PST | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
On NBC’s new dramatic thriller The Firm, which takes place 10 years after the events in the film of the same name, actress Juliette Lewis plays Tammy Hemphill, the feisty, sexy receptionist for Mitch McDeere (Josh Lucas) and his law firm, as well as the on-again, off-again girlfriend of Mitch’s brother, Ray (Callum Keith Rennie). Always able to adapt to any situation and never one to conform, Tammy is leery when Mitch accepts a deal to partner with a top law practice. During this exclusive interview with Collider, done at the Television Critics Association Winter Press Tour, Juliette Lewis talked about how this TV role came about for her, why she loves her character, how much fun she’s having with the wardrobe, the challenge of working with different directors who are all trying to execute the same vision, how much she loves her co-stars, her evolving interest in »

Juliette Lewis on bisexual rumors, her new role on "The Firm" and starring in an iconic Melissa Etheridge video
9 January 2012 10:46 AM, PST | AfterEllen.com | See recent AfterEllen.com news »
Juliette Lewis has played a myriad of characters over her career, which began when she was 12 years old. (She's now 38.) But while she's mainly focused on film projects and later delving into a music career, she's coming back to television to play Tammy, a fiery legal assistant on NBC's The Firm.
Tammy doesn't appear until later in the pilot (which aired last night), and Juliette explains that viewers have a lot to be caught up on at the show's start. The series is set 10 years after the film/book version of The Firm ends and the new Mitch McDeere (Josh Lucas) works at a small firm with his wife Abby (Molly Parker), Tammy and his brother (also Tammy's on-again/off-again lover) Ray McDeere (Callum Keith Rennie). So while the first episode is a little slower than I'd hope for, Juliette is a welcome sight before it concludes.

The Firm: Premiere Ratings
9 January 2012 10:21 AM, PST | TVSeriesFinale.com | See recent TVSeriesFinale news »
Last night, NBC unveiled their newest legal drama, The Firm. Crafted as a follow-up to the 1993 feature film, the TV series stars Josh Lucas, Molly Parker, Callum Keith Rennie, and Juliette Lewis.
The peacock network really needs some hit shows to help them rebuild their schedule, especially since many of the new fall shows have either been cancelled or are struggling. The Firm is certainly one of their most high-profile shows of the season.
Unfortunately, it doesn't look like they're going to find a hit this time around. After receiving lackluster reviews, The Firm's two-hour debut brought in a very disappointing 1.4 rating in the 18-49 demographic and just 6.3 million viewers, per the fast affiliate ratings.
The new show was in last place for the demo at 9pm and tied for second place with struggling Pan Am at »

The Firm Series Premiere Review: A Compelling Legal Thriller
8 January 2012 11:08 PM, PST | TVfanatic | See recent TVfanatic news »
I was a huge fan of John Grisham's The Firm back when it was just a novel, and I even enjoyed the Tom Cruise movie adaptation. But when I heard that NBC was making a television series, I balked. I wasn't sure why the entire story needed to be retold in another format.
Except that the series, aptly titled The Firm, isn't another copy. Rather it's merely the next chapter for main character and defense attorney Mitch McDeere and the rest of his family.
The backstory is quickly explained with a few sentences about Mitch working for the firm, Bendini, Lambert & Locke, and how he helped the FBI bring it down because of money laundering for the mob. Of course, placing a mob leader in jail is a sure fire way to get yourself killed, but that's what witness protection is for. I recognize that this all may be »

'The Firm' - 'Pilot': The Firm 2: Die firmer?
8 January 2012 8:00 PM, PST | Hitfix | See recent Hitfix news »
I posted my review of NBC's "The Firm" sequel earlier this week. Now it's your turn. Did this feel like a worthy successor to either the John Grisham book or Tom Cruise movie? Did Josh Lucas make a good Mitch McDeere? Did the presence of both Callum Keith Rennie and Tricia Helfer make you wonder whether this new firm is some kind of elaborate Cylon plot? Did you care at all about the case involving the kids and the vengeful father? And do you intend to continue watching when the show moves to Thursdays at 10 later this week? Have at it. »
