Shanks & Staite: Current Filming Projects

Two of our Stargate stars have just started new filming projects that we thought you might be interested in hearing about.

Jewel Staite: She’s been reporting about her new project The Doomsday Scrolls with CSI: NY star A.J. Buckley on her Twitter account. Buckley even posted a TweetPhoto that includes the two of them on location. News about Buckley’s casting and a hint at what the movie is about come from The Hollywood Reporter: “And A.J. Buckley (“CSI: NY”) has been tapped to star in ‘The Doomsday Scrolls,’ about a book editor who tries to prevent Armageddon.” The movie is filming in Vancouver for Syfy and will premiere next year.

Michael Shanks: His Official Website is reporting that he’s filming Faces in the Crowd: MSOL transcribed a portion of his talk at the recent Vulcan Events convention in Florida, “I’m starting a movie, like… right when I get back from here I’m going to Winnipeg to shoot a movie called Faces In The Crowd with Milla Jovovich and Julian McMahon. It’s about a woman who gets attacked by a serial killer and she develops – I don’t remember the name of the condition, it’s really hard to pronounce [prosopagnosia] – where you can’t… she gets hit in the head and it’s a condition where she can’t distinguish faces. So… I’m playing her boyfriend, and there’s 15 other actors playing my role as well because every time she sees him it looks different, so I’ll voice over all the other actors. It’s a really interesting premise.” More information can be obtained by visiting MSOL or Jovovich’s Official Website. The film will premiere next year. A promo/preview video is included below.
