FRANCOIS ARNAUD TO LEAD
'MIDNIGHT, TEXAS' TV SERIES
In todays's TV news BORGIAS star Francois Arnaud is returning to the small screens with the lead role in MIDNIGHT, TEXAS series based on Charlaine Harris novels set in a remote town where your neighbour could be a vampire, a witch, a werewolf, or even an angel.
FREAK TOWN
The show centres on travelling psychic Manfred Bernardo (Francois Arnaud) who, having grown tired of life on the road, takes the advice of his dead grandmother and decides to settle in the small Texas town of Midnight. Perfectly content with going about his business letting others think he’s a hack, Manfred soon realizes that he has much more in common with the locals than he originally thought. It would seem that he’s found more evil than he left, so he’ll have to bond with his supernatural neighbours to figure out what’s going on. The cast also includes Arielle Kebbel, Dylan Bruce and Sarah Ramos.

'LAST DAYS IN THE DESERT'
TRAILER WITH EWAN MCGREGOR
The first trailer has finally been released for Ewan McGregor's drama LAST DAYS IN THE DESERT which is out this May.
Ewan McGregor is Jesus - and the Devil - in an imagined chapter from his forty days of fasting and praying in the desert. On his way out of the wilderness, Jesus struggles with the Devil over the fate of a family in crisis, setting for himself a dramatic test.
"Last days in the Desert" if Jesus was dead he'd be turning over in his tomb!
ReplyDeleteat least he isn't being played by Leo DeCapricosso or some other mediocre wannabe :)
DeleteI don't know if either of these are for me, but I enjoyed hearing about them just the same. :)
ReplyDelete~Jess
same here, although we do adore Ewan
DeleteCharlaine Harris wrote some interesting stuff.
ReplyDeletemostly some really truly annoyingly badly written stuff :) I know, I'm her translator for my country :)
DeleteMidnight, Texas sounds interesting. A supernatural series centered around a psychic sounds fun.
ReplyDeleteespecially if there are hot angels around

DeleteOur lord and savior, Obi-Wan Kenobi
ReplyDeleteI just knew you'd say that!
DeleteEwan as Jesus? Okaaayyyy... Usually, when I picture Jesus, a white man does not come to mind.
ReplyDeleteI would worship in his church, though
DeleteI'm with Theresa.
DeleteI bet you would, Dezzzmeister!
sure would
DeleteLoved Ewan in Long Way Round. Could be an interesting show!
ReplyDeletetwill be a movie, not a show with McJesus :)
DeleteI'm looking forward to "Last Days in the Desert" so much! Looks like a movie of real depth and thought, not just "McJesus" as you said in the last comment -- what a great phrase! And of course, Ewan McGregor is a magnificent actor -- he's always a pleasure to watch.
ReplyDeletewe could watch him forever without getting tired! And listen to his singing too... My dream is for him to sing me to sleep :)
DeleteI haven't seen Ewan McGregor for ages! looks like a great one to watch..
ReplyDeleteyes, he tends to do a lot of crime movies these days :(
