AOL TV

A new video interview with me about Lost and All Things Ethan has been posted on AOL TV here.  I was grilled by the very funny Maggie Furlong, a Lost fanatic if I’ve ever seen one.  Which I have.  Believe me.  Not, of course, that there’s anything wrong with that.

Sometimes, no news is just, well, no news

In response to literally thousands, perhaps millions, of letters and emails that have nearly shut down southern California servers and post offices, I’m here to save the day with updates on a couple projects.

A Warrior’s Heart‘ when last I checked was nearing the final stages of post-production.  How and when you’ll be able to see it is still uncertain.  It may receive theatrical distribution, or it may go right to video/cable.  As soon as I hear something, I’ll send word immediately.

Another Earth‘ is definitely still in post-production.  (These things take time, people!)  It will almost surely first go to film festivals, in order to attain the momentum necessary to fill theatres both near you and across the globe, thereby vaunting it into a box office bonanza far, far beyond anything that weakling ‘Avatar’ ever dreamed of.  Or something like that.

Early press about some of the guest stars on this season of Law & Order: Criminal Intent is here.  The season starts Tuesday, featuring the lovely Saffron Burrows (right).  I’ll be on in a few weeks.  Details as they become available, Cap’n.

Scream-in, er, Call-in Show

For those dying to ask me a tough question, or hear me try to field toughies from others, I’ll be on the podcast ‘Lost’ Causes, this Monday at 8p eastern/5p western.

The website is here.  It lists a phone number and links to previous shows.

Be gentle.

Countin’ the Bab(i)es

When Reno Wilson phones, I take the call.  Last year he and I were on the last two episodes of Prison Break as a pair of FBI agents, and I had trouble keeping a straight face at time during shooting.  He’s one funny man.  He also has the gift of being extremely, immediately likable, both in person and on screen.  I can’t stand him.

So he rings me up to do a cameo in a video he’s shooting for Funny or Die, and who am I to say No?  It’s called Babymaker and is in the Top 20 over at Funny or Die.  You can watch it and vote here.
