NEWS - Tutti per uno, Italia Uno per tutti! In "The Musketeers", al via stasera, i moschettieri di Dumas parlano inglese (BBC) e Capaldi-Who fa Richelieu 
I Moschettieri cavalcano in anteprima assoluta su Italia 1 dal 19 dicembre, ogni venerdì in prima serata lungo tutte le feste natalizie. Col titolo originale: “The Musketeers”.
La ricostruzione seriale della BBC delle avventure di Dumas è probabilmente la migliore mai realizzata (guanto di sfida a chi dice il contrario!). Forse dell'immaginario tutto, cinema compreso. Peter Capaldi (attuale "Doctor Who") e Santiago Cabrera ("Heroes") sono tra i volti noti della sontuosa e fascinosa ricostruzione già confermata per la 2° stagione.
Le riprese sono avvenute a Praga. Lo sceneggiatore Adrian Hodges ha affermato di voler “portare in scena un gruppo di eroi romantici in contrapposizione alla schiera di anti-eroi che si vede ormai di abitudine nella tv di oggi”.
Ambientato nel 1630 a Parigi, D'Artagnan (Luke Pasqualino), Athos (Tom Burke), Aramis (Santiago Cabrera) e Porthos (Howard Charles) sono quattro valorosi spadaccini che lottano per la giustizia al servizio di Luigi XIII (Ryan Gage). Dovranno fare i conti e limare le spade quando il Cardinale Armand Richelieu (Peter Capaldi) orchestra un piano per screditarli…
Il “Guardian” ha così commentato l’avvento della serie: “in un’epoca di chef apparentemente virili e pubblicità di rasoi ultrasoft su ogni canale, fa solo bene risentire il suono metallico delle spade sguainate, dei duelli all’alba e dei cavalli al galoppo. Oltre a ricordare cosa sia il romanticismo alle nuove generazioni…”.
La serie è stata posticipata in Inghilterra per permettere a Peter Capaldi di interpretare il 12° “Doctor Who”; anche la seconda stagione, già confermata, subirà slittamenti di riprese per agevolare gli impegni dell’attore nel serial più popolare di Sua Maestà (e di godere così della pubblicità riflessa!). Luke Pasqualino è nato in UK ma ha padre siciliano e madre napoletana.

NEWS - Clamorosissimo al Cibalissimo! "Heroes" again?

Notizia tratta da "Tv Line"
Save the cheerleader, launch a new programming initiative? MSN, which is making a big push into original programming via Xbox, is in talks to revive NBC’s superhero drama Heroes, TVLine has learned exclusively. Details remain sketchy, but sources confirm that MSN is interested in relaunching the once red-hot NBC Universal franchise with new stories and heroes, while mixing in cameos from the original series’ cast (schedules and interest permitting). The talks are said to be in the preliminary stages. In February, MSN hired former NBC development executive Jada Miranda to oversee production of its fledgling Xbox entertainment studio under ex-CBS president Nancy Tellem (who came on board last fall). Heroes‘ four-season run on NBC ended in February 2010.

NEWS - Ecco perchè "Arrow" deve andare a lezione (di tiro) da "Smallville", "Buffy", "24", "Heroes" e "Vampire Diaries"...
Get ready for another superhero series!
This fall on The CW's Arrow, fans will get to follow the exploits of DC Comics' Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell), a playboy who spent five years on a deserted island after a horrific boating accident. The prodigal son will return home and use the alias Green Arrow, a superhero who's super handy with a bow and arrow, to save his precious Star City from the criminals who lie in wait. Arrow has all the trademarks of a great superhero series, including a lost love — Katie Cassidy as Dinah "Laurel" Lance — and the loss of a, spoiler alert, parental figure.

With the premiere of Arrow, The CW has the chance to once again be the home to a long-running superhero series that will not only attract Smallville followers, but also comic book aficionados and fanboys — and even fangirls! — alike. But — and this is a big but — the writers behind Arrowneed to adhere to certain rules in hero series as to not make the same mistakes of the past. Therefore, we've created a list of things that Arrow should and shouldn't do in order to be successful based on tried-and-true heroic formats:
1. Smallville: Give fans what they want! Tom Welling & Co. were insistent on sticking to the "no tights, no flight" rule, disappointing fans wanting to see Superman flying in his iconic suit until the series' final episode. The big moments of the Green Arrow canon should — and hopefully will — happen sooner, rather than later. (Fortunately, fans won't have to wait long to see Ollie in costume since he suits up in the pilot.)
2. Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Tortured love works. Watching Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar) and Angel (David Boreanaz) doing the will-they-or-won't-they dance was an ever-present necessity considering if they did, ahem, get together, he'd go crazy and kill everyone. Plus, Buffy had to focus on saving the world, which is precisely what Ollie will also be doing. (You'll have to wait a while for the Ollie and Dinah romance since he seriously breaks her heart in the premiere.)
3. 24: Keep the action high. The Kiefer Sutherland-starring series was at its best when Jack Bauer was constantly running around trying to save the world — so that's pretty much always. The high-intensity, action-packed drama kept fans on the edge of their seats. While there's no countdown clock in Arrow, here's hoping they keep up that same fast-paced action.
4. The Cape: Don't take yourself too seriously. The short-lived NBC series was all camp, much like the original Batman fare. However, The Cape spent much of the time trying to be dark, when it should've embraced the ridiculousness of its premise: a man dressed in a costume trying to save the world. Arrow, a much darker series in its own right, just needs to find the right balance of both.
5. Touch: Keep it simple, stupid. Fox's midseason series was just a touch too complicated, with a mess of intertwining story lines that sometimes had fans scratching their heads  or taking notes to keep it all straight. (It's OK, Lost did it, too.) Dear Arrow, one story line a week, that's all you need. Just make sure to find a balance between longer arcs and "villains of the week." 
6. Heroes: Don't stray too far from your central characters. The NBC super series was in its prime during the first season, when the show focused solely on saving the cheerleader, and those who helped along the way. But once the world of Heroes opened up to, well, the rest of the world, the series lost touch with the heart of the show. As long as Arrow stays focused on Ollie, and by extension, Dinah, it should be easier for fans to follow.
7. Batman Begins: Keep it gritty and grounded. Christopher Nolan's remake of the Batmanfranchise surpassed its campy predecessors simply by finding the right balance of danger and darkness in a realistic world. Sure, Christian Bale still flies through the air as a giant bat, but audiences can actually relate to him because Bale plays him as an everyman — who just so happens to be a billionaire.
8. Green Lantern: Don't go overboard with special effects. Just because you can afford to create a whole world on a computer, doesn't mean you should. We're also looking at you, newStar Wars trilogy. Green Lantern was far less believable knowing it was all created using a mouse and keyboard. Plus: Who needs to use that much CGI for a guy shooting arrows?
9. Superman Returns: Don't assume the audience knows everything about the mythos.Even the most diehard Superman fans were at a loss over this travesty of a remake. (Had to actually Wikipedia where this film fell in the mythology after watching it — after II, ignoring III and IV.) In that same vein, try not alienate the audience by inserting too many inside references to the Green Arrow canon. A few for the dedicated comic book fans are great, but don't cross the line,Arrow.
10. Iron Man: Don't make the hero's real life so ostentatious. Both Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) and Oliver Queen are playboys-turned-superheroes, but Iron Man often crossed the line into ridiculous territory with lavish parties, expensive cars and the like, making him one of the least relatable superheroes. Keep it balanced, Arrow!
11. The Avengers and X-Men: Bring on the superhero friends! Both of these films proved that getting a bunch of superheroes together is a good idea. Since the Green Arrow is a member of the Justice League, it should be no problem — rights pending, of course — to bring on a few of the iconic team members. Though, they can hold off on bringing Superman around considering the new series should put some distance between itself and Smallville. Plus: Make sure Dinah actually takes on the Black Canary alias within the first season.
12. The Vampire Diaries: Don't be afraid to take big risks. CW's other "hero" series — vampires can be good people, too! — was certainly unafraid to kill off their main character in the closing moments of last season's finale. Sure, Elena (Nina Dobrev) will come back as a vampire next season, but it radically alters the climate of the series. Arrow should strive to be as willing to take their viewers over the cliff — as long as there's a safety net ready to catch us at the last minute.
What do you think Arrow should do to be successful?
Arrow debuts Wednesday, Oct. 10 at 8/7 on The CW. Will you be watching?

NEWS - "Sono Panettiere, non Taylor Swift!": la prossima interprete di "Nashville" respinge le ipotesi che il suo personaggio s'ispiri alla figura della country singer
Articolo tratto da JustJared.com
Hayden Panettiere wears a fashionable Bec & Bridge ‘Bianca Adventurer’ fedora at the Nashville panel during the 2012 Summer TCA Tour in Beverly Hills, Calif. The 22-year-old actress chatted about the comparisons between her character Juliette and reigning country princess Taylor Swift at the panel. “I’ve heard the Taylor Swift thing quite a bit and I think besides being around the same age and blond — not even the height — they are different” Hayden shared. Hayden added, “I when think you guys see her and get to know Juliette a little better, you’ll see. But I really think Taylor would disagree wholeheartedly as well. She’s much nicer than my character.”

FYI: Hayden is wearing an alice+olivia dress with a J Brand jacket, Louboutin booties and Sethi Couture earrings.

NEWS - La Panettiere sforna "Nashville". L'ex cheerleader di "Heroes" protagonista in autunno della versione country di "Smash"
Notizia tratta da Just Jared
Hayden Panettiere leaves the gym with a guy pal on Tuesday (June 26) in Brentwood, Calif. The 22-year-old actress will be hitting the small screen when her ABC show, "Nashville", premieres this fall. THR got a preview of the series, which uses original country songs while telling the story about a fading superstar who’s forced to team up with a teen sensation. “It’s a family drama at its heart,” the mag notes, adding that Hayden “plays the b—-.” “But her young ‘it’ singer does have a major redeeming quality that provides insight into her less than perfect behavior that makes her character sympathetic in a way that viewers didn’t quite get to see from Smash‘s manipulative Ellis,” writes THR.

GOSSIP - Zachary Quint(out). L'attore di "Heroes" esce allo scoperto sulla sua omosessualità e in "American Horror Story" interpreta un gay...

Articolo tratto dall'"Huffington Post"
Zachary Quinto, inheritor of the iconic Mr. Spock role in JJ Abrams' "Star Trek" reboot and the star of the upcoming film "Margin Call," reveals that he is gay in a new profile in New York Magazine. The star, 34, credits his role in the Broadway play "Angels In America," in which he plays a gay man who leaves his AIDS-afflicted boyfriend, for helping to put him further in touch with the hopes felt and struggles faced by both gay and straight Americans, and discusses his political outlook for the rights movement.
Living in New York during the play's run, Quinto says the experience was both challenging and rewarding, and gave him a fresh perspective on the work that needs to be done in the fight for equality. On one hand, New York State legalized gay marriage; on the other, a gay teen committed suicide earlier this year because of unending bullying.
"As a gay man I look at that and say there’s a hopelessness that surrounds it," he says, "but as a human being I look at it and say ‘Why? Where’s this disparity coming from, and why can’t we as a culture and society dig deeper to examine that?’ We’re terrified of facing ourselves.”
Quinto has long been an advocate for gay rights -- he performed in a 2009 staging of "The Laramie Project: 10 Years Later" and appeared at a banquet for the cause that same weekend, and put out an "It Gets Better" video the next year. That often fed into speculation over his sexuality, as did the fact that he's played a number of gay roles, and is doing so again in his latest television show, "American Horror Story."
In an interview with the New York Times last year, he said he preferred discussion about his advocacy over personal matters.
“The fact that these things are such hot-button issues right now, socially and politically, I would much rather talk about that than talk about who I sleep with,” Quinto said. “I would love to be a voice in this maelstrom of chaos and obsessive celebrity infatuation that says, ‘Let’s talk about something that matters.’”
As Spock, he had a blossoming romance with Zoë Saldana's Uhra; he just appeared this fall as the ex-boyfriend of Anna Faris in "What's Your Number".

UPDATE: Quinto posted a new blog on his website Sunday morning to discuss why he decided to come out as a gay man.
"When I found out that Jamey Rodemeyer killed himself -- I felt deeply troubled," Quinto writes. "But when I found out that Jamey Rodemeyer had made an 'It Gets Better' video only months before taking his own life -- I felt indescribable despair."
Quinto, who also made an "It Gets Better" video (see below), says Rodemeyer's death made him decide to speak up in public.
"In light of Jamey's death -- it became clear to me in an instant that living a gay life without publicly acknowledging it -- is simply not enough to make any significant contribution to the immense work that lies ahead on the road to complete equality. Our society needs to recognize the unstoppable momentum toward unequivocal civil equality for every gay lesbian bisexual and transgendered citizen of this country."
He continues, "I believe in the power of intention to change the landscape of our society -- and it is my intention to live an authentic life of compassion and integrity and action."
