First Photos of Alastair Mackenzie in "The Priory"

Happy November everyone (if yall havent given up on me) Sorry for the sporatic nature of posting of late and delay on posting this when they were announced a few days ago, but to start off the month on a proper good foot, there is some proper good news....the first photos of Sigma's own Alastair Mackenzie in Jeremy Herrin's production of Michael Wynne's "The Priory." The pics are two from a recent promo shoot, Im just thrilled...and look Al is checking out his iPhone :D This news was announced by the Royal Court on their Twitter here, with the Facebook group here, and tickets (going fast!) can be purchased at this link.

One Night in Emergency to air in Scotland before Christmas

A quick followup on a few things. First, as noted when we first saw the BBC release on One Night in Emergency, it indicated the program was to air 'later in the fall.' Thanks much to the good folks at Kevin McKidd Online for steering me to this article on Silver River productions (team behind ONIE) which reads:

Silver River’s first drama, One Night In Emergency, goes out on BBC Scotland before Christmas and has been lined up for a network slot next year. The 60-minute drama is a modern interpretation of Homer’s The Odyssey set within a hospital and has a twist “like The Sixth Sense”. It stars Grey’s Anatomy’s Kevin McKidd and Michelle Ryan.

Tickets are available for the screening of ONIE at the Inverness Film Festival in a few weeks (Nov. 13) at this link. No word if Jamie or how many of cast and crew will be there for this. Hopefully some kind soul will send in or release photos /report from the event!

Hope does remain there will be a good showing of cast/crew for the Scottish premiere of Valhalla Rising at the same film festival as noted below, it will be the closing gala event on the 15th. Ticket info here ALONG WITH WALLPAPER for the event here smaller/larger

New Photo of Ewan McGregor in David Mackenzie's "Last Word"

Many thanks to reader Allan, we now have a new still of Ewan McGregor from David Mackenzie's "The Last Word" which was filmed recently in Glasgow, Scotland.

Big News from Inverness Film Festival: Valhalla Rising Scottish Premiere, One Night in Emergency to Screen at Event!!

Calling all Jamie Sives fans (and heads up Kevin McKidd fans too!) Big news today from the beautiful city of Inverness and the Inverness Film Festival at Eden court which runs November 11-15th

First: The highlands of Scotland will see a return visit of sorts as Nicholas Winding Refn's Valhalla Rising will have their Scottish premiere when it screens at the film festival as the Gala Closing event on Sunday, November 15th! While we were all very disappointed in the low key event for the film at London FF, here's hoping many of the Scottish cast (Gary Lewis!) and crew can make it to Inverness..esp you Mr. Jamie Sives! We sorely missed seeing you at LFF :(

Its double the Jamie goodness tho for those who can attend because GREAT NEWS ...Gregory Burke's ONE NIGHT IN EMERGENCY with Kevin McKidd and Jamie Sives (Ewan Bremner, James Cosmo, Gary Lewis more) will screen Friday, November 13!!
Lolz to the date... friday the13th, spooky ghosty adventure showing then get it?
hahaah ok sorry

Finally, director Richard Jobson (New Town Killers) will be holding a MASTER CLASS on Thursday, November 12th at 9. Featuring on the role of the Director, RJ will be giving tips on something I totally fail at lol, Final Cut Pro and after effects. Plus there will be a screening of his documentary with the truly amazing Emma Thompson , which is called The Journey. This features on the terrible terrible human trafficking crisis, and will focus on the journey and plight of one woman.

You can read the whole lineup at this link. Enjoy and for those who are lucky enough to attend, please send in any reports/pics, we would love to see them please! :)

Update on Al

Well it's not much of an update on Alastair Mackenzie Im afraid, but there were a few things I thought worth noting:

Jeremy Herrin's production of Michael Wynne's THE PRIORY at the Royal Court Theatre featuring Sigma's own Alastair Mackenzie is of course well into rehearsals (follow the RCT twitter here) Of interest, the schedule of various special nights including press night AND A POST SHOW TALK NIGHT are now online. If you are still trying to book tickets these dates seemed interesting lol No idea if Al will participate either

Audio-Described Performance(s)

Saturday 12 December 3pm

Captioned Performance(s)

Also, for those that dont follow the Facebook page, there will be a cast and crew screening of MONSTER MUTT this week on Thurs, Oct 27 at the Arclight in Hollywood. Doubt Al will be there due to his theatre obligations but you never know. Recently the producer Harvey Lowry and director Todd Tucker gave an update on the film(which is now OFFICIALLY COMPLETE), which hopefully we will all get to see soon.
http://www.shocktillyoudrop.com/news/topnews.php?id=12358
"We’re a week away from completely finishing Monster Mutt," Tucker tells Shock. "It’s a family fantasy film about a family dog that gets kidnapped by a corporation, they use him for testing and turn him into a monster dog. It’s lovable big monster dog, all practical FX. It’s a creature suit and an animatronic head." "It’s very much character driven, it’s PG so it’s not gory or anything," confesses Tucker. "It’s really got the old feel of films that really inspired us like Gremlins and ET and Harry & The Hendersons, films that were all very family driven. And I tried to make something that had a contemporary feel to it, but also the spiritual feel of the old Spielberg films. We hope to have it out sometime next year."

Word: Two Wheelin with Ewan

LOL I luvs the internet! This fun random offbeat piece of film news popped up on the daily google crawl regarding Ewan McGregor and something he sports in David Mackenzie's Last Word film...No, it wasnt the clothing (he sports J.Lindeberg during at least one scene), rather his choice of transportation...of the two wheeled kind that is :) The kind we saw in the article here with his ride in the park!

As noted by Tokyo Fixed Gear, they "built Ewan a bike for his upcoming movie The Last Word. The movie is set in Glasgow & directed by David Mackenzie. He's riding a Gorilla Hattara frame & he's wearing clothing from Pedal.e.d, CCP & Swrve. Ewan took two, one to ride in the movie & one to add to his "collection", he told us he has a Pake (Another brand coming soon!). He seems to love all things with two wheels, when he was down in London he borrowed a bright green Cycroc & rode it round W1, would have been good to get a photo of that.If any one wants a Gorilla we will be selling their bikes in our soon to open shop. We will be taking pre orders on their amazing new trick bike soon!" You can learn more about TokyoFixedGear here.

Filming has now wrapped on Sigma Films The Last Word, with a release set sometime for next year (doubt it will be ready for Berlin, but oho it sure would be grand to see that at Edinburgh, may be too earlier even then but still hope remains! ;)
Related: Thanks much to Scottish Actor Blogs we now know fans in the US will see Ewan on TV again soon, as he will be on Jay Leno tomorrow, and the hilarious Conan Mon, Nov 2. Doubt he will talk last word, prob that goat thing ;p
