GREG KINNEAR 

TO TAKE 'PIANO LESSONS'

Now, here's a plot that sounds very nice: as 'Deadline' reports today Greg Kinnear will take the lead role of a husband whose marriage is on the rocks so he goes to great lengths without his wife’s knowledge to demonstrate how much he loves her in PIANO LESSONS.

Based on a true story, it will see him playing a lawyer who after 20 years of marriage realizes his relationship with his wife is failing. The wife, passionate about music, is ready for a new life after their 19 year old daughter leaves the nest. To win her back and prove his love to her, he decides to take piano lessons to learn her favourite song, Robert Schumann’s “Traumerei,” a delicate song to master. He goes to a free spirited, sexy female piano teacher to take lessons behind his wife’s back and slowly progresses from all thumbs to pianist.

AMAZON'S 'OASIS' SF SERIES

 RICHARD MADDEN SHINES AS THE CHARISMATIC LEAD

I also wanted to remind you that Amazon has started airing a magnificent pilot for possible new sf series OASIS with our most beloved Scot Richard Madden. It is in a group of five new pilots and the votes from viewers will decide which one will be ordered for a whole series. You can check out the pilots trailer below with the OASIS part starting around the first minute. I've watched the pilot and I can tell you that it is intriguing, atmospheric and proves Madden's magnetic charisma with which he carries the role of the show's lead with great ease. With a quick pace and tense atmosphere, the pilot leaves you wanting for more after the opening episode ends up with a scene of mysterious and stunning revelation. 

A TEST OF FAITH   
Based on The Book of Strange New Things by Michael Faber, it is set some 20 years into the future and sees brilliantly talented Richard Madden playing a chaplain who is sent into space to help scientists and workers there to establish a colony on a faraway planet, though what he discovers there tests his faith and life itself. This is  the fourth series the outstanding young star is leading, and the cast also includes Mark Addy and Hayley Joel Osment!
