Ain’t It Cool News loooooves my upcoming episode of Justified. (Set in Harlan, KY, ‘natch.)
Sounds as if, y’all, that they had almost as much fun watching it as I did shooting it. Almost.

Drew Peterson: Untouchable, on Lifetime this past Saturday, was the most-watched cable movie for the past two years. There were 5.8 million people who were kept off the street and prevented from thieving and pillaging. Score one for Lifetime!
But some dare question the film’s accuracy. We are shocked. Shocked!
On a totally separate note: Pandodaily, a site with all sorts of tech news, picked up Slated’s announcement at the launch party at Sundance. (See my Slated FAQ on this site for more info about Slated).
This Sat night at 8pm/7pm Central, Lifetime is airing Drew Peterson: Untouchable,
the movie about Drew Peterson, the Illinois police officer whose wives keep dying on him. Just bad luck? Hmmm..
Kaley Cuoco (Big Bang Theory) joins in the fun. Rob Lowe looks frighteningly accurate in the role. I play Drew’s stepbrother, Glenn, not the most accomplished of accomplices..
Here are a couple fun pics from the wedding scene. First pic: Go ahead, have a look at it.
It’s a pretty film set for a wedding, right? Except notice the stones in the grass in the foreground? Yeah, we shot the wedding scene in a cemetery. Perfect for the story line.
Second pic: This sort of odd arrangement — baby and flowers along with plastic covering, lying on the grass next to a trash can — is the norm for a film set. The crew (the props dept., in this case) is too busy fighting the dwindling daylight and the addle-brained actors to worry about niceties like protecting the fake babies from trash can odors..
Last night I wrapped an episode of the fantastic FX show Justified. If you haven’t seen the show, it’s really worth checking out. It’s dramatic and very funny and full of great actors bringing to life a wide assortment of fascinating character. Big bonus: It’s set in my home state of Kentucky.
Tim Olyphant is tremendous in the lead. He has this whole Henry Fonda My Darling Clementine thing going on, which is no small compliment. (That movie is definitely working checking out, too.)
The 3rd season starts January, and 1&2 are on Netflix. I’m guessin’ my ep will air sometime in late Jan or early Feb.
With these updates I hope you’ll all be able to finalize your autumn schedules…
My Mentalist episode airs on Nov 2.
On Dec 2, A Warrior’s Heart, the indie I made a good while back with Twilight‘s Ashley Greene & Kellan Lutz, will have a limited (10-city) theatrical release and come out on VOD. More details as I get them.
In January, Lifetime will air The Drew Peterson Story, starring Rob Lowe in a scary moustache.
Here’s to a lovely autumn.
