Joe Flanigan Interview for “Change of Plans”

Procter & Gamble and Walmart have put up the full website for their upcoming film, Change of Plans starring Joe Flanigan, Brooke White, and Phylicia Rashad. The site has plenty of pictures and video, including an interview with Joe Flanigan in which he talks about his childhood, over images that must be from his personal photo album. To see the interview, visit the Change of Plans site, then click on Videos, then Interviews, then Interviews – Joe Flanigan.

There’s a second interview right after that one that features Joe speaking French, or at least trying to!

Or, visit the videos directly: Joe Flanigan Interview, Joe Speaks French.

Joe appears in many of the other videos, so check them all out.

Change of Plans airs Saturday, January 8, 2011 at 8 pm on Fox in the U.S. The day after airing, a special 2-disc DVD/CD bonus pack will be available through Walmart.

News Flashes and Brief Follow-Ups

Jason-Momoa-GOT-Teaser3 — Jason Momoa as Khal Drogo in GAME OF THRONES (HBO)

Jason Momoa – His Conan movie was renamed to Conan the Barbarian, but still has the same release date in the United States: August 19, 2011. For his other project, HBO’s Game of Thrones, there are some rumors going around that HBO might already be renewing the new series for a second season, even before the first has been aired. Speculation as to why this might be the case can be found at the fansite Winter Is Coming. This fansite is very active in posting the latest news on the new HBO series and this editor highly recommends it. There’s also a recent article that includes an image of Momoa as Khal Drogo entitled “MGoT update: Join the Dothraki horde.”
Michael Shanks, Lexa Doig, Steve Bacic – Filming has wrapped for Hangar 14. Shanks plays a bad guy, a Russian gangster named Demetrius, and Doig plays a SWAT team member along with Steve Bacic, Michael Jai White, and the movie’s star, former wrestler Steve Austin. Doig published a few pictures on her Twitter while on the set of the movie: “Me as SWAT chick” and “The Boys :).” Currently, IMDb lists Doig in her role, but not her husband Shanks! The storyline: “A training exercise for the LAPD SWAT Team goes terribly wrong when they find themselves pitted against two rival gangs while trapped in an abandoned Hangar, armed with nothing but blanks.”
Stargate Universe – Our Stargate Wiki now has all of the transcripts for the first half of Season Two. SGU will be returning to Syfy in the Spring, possibly early April 2011.

This is just a quick reminder that Stargate stars Michael Shanks and Alaina Huffman will be reprising their Smallville roles tonight (December 10) in the episode “Icarus” at 8 PM ET on The CW!

We’ve been promised by the show’s producer Brian Peterson that the episode will contain “a fantastic Hawkman sequence.” Huffman will also be in the episode, making a cameo appearance as Black Canary. High-quality stills, a few of which include Shanks as Carter Hall, can be viewed at Spoiler TV. Just be sure to note that going there will expose you to some spoilers!

If you happen to miss the episode, The CW places aired episodes on their website for online viewing.
