“Bachelorette” gets US release date of June 1st

Apr 14, 2012Apr 14, 2012 "Bachelorette" No Comments

Fantastic news, Isla fans! (Well, those in the US, anyway). Bachelorette will be released in North America on June 1st – that’s 7 weeks away. It may also be available on Video On Demand around the same time.

From the LATimes:

And they’re moving more aggressively into the burgeoning video-on-demand business with a new division called Radius that will release titles simultaneously on digital platforms and in a limited number of theaters. Radius has already acquired several low-budget pictures, and its first release, the Kirsten Dunst comedy “Bachelorette,” will be June 1.

Danish fans can also be excited, as according to IMDB the film will get a release there on June 14th.

We’ll keep you posted on further international release dates, and let’s cross our fingers for not just that, but for some US promotion as well 🙂

More “Now You See Me” set photos, plus ‘In Development’ Career page added

Apr 13, 2012Apr 13, 2012 "Now You See Me", Gallery Updates, Website No Comments

Yesterday I added a new-old batch of photos from the set of Now You See Me, that were taken the day before the first batch we had a few weeks ago. Isla is seen walking around on set with Jesse Eisenberg and Woody Harrelson, wearing a blue blouse and dark jeans. Big thanks to my friend Lindsey for sending these to us!

I’ve also been super busy the last few days, researching Isla’s upcoming projects to write our In Development career page. I’ve now completed it as accurately and in depth as I can, providing you with all the latest information on the projects Isla is probably/hopefully still developing, including Groupies, Cookie Queen, and Life Coach. I just want to see more and more of Miss Fisher’s unique brand of funny on screen, so I hope some of these projects get a big greenlight soon.

“Now You See Me” filming moves to Las Vegas

Apr 12, 2012 "Now You See Me", Gallery Updates, Videos 1 Comment

Filming for Now You See Me has now moved to Las Vegas, and Isla and her co-stars were spotted filming scenes on Monday afternoon. This week they’ve shot at the Aria hotel, including their Sky Villa suites, casino floor and valet areas, at the iconic signs at the Neon Museum and Boneyard on Monday, and the Golden Gate hotel on Tuesday. They won’t be filming at the MGM Grand though – during the filming in New Orleans earlier this year, sets were built to stand in for the famous hotel and casino, where a fight scene was set. David Copperfield is reportedly on set in Las Vegas this week. The movie also has scenes in Paris and New York.

I’ve added a couple of photos from the sighting to our Gallery, and will be on the lookout for more.

Contact Music have a short video with footage of the cast arriving on set, and Ace Showbiz and SunOfHollywood have a few more photos from this weeks filming.

Content updates: Pantomime & Presenting work career pages

Apr 10, 2012Apr 10, 2012 Gallery Updates, Website No Comments

Following much research, I have now completed Career section pages for Isla’s Pantomime/Stage and Presenting work! I’ve spent quite a long time looking for information on this work, and have managed to put together some fairly in depth information for you, which I hope you will find interesting (I know I did!). Whilst researching, I also came across a couple of flyers for Isla’s pantomime production of Cinderella, which I have now added to the Gallery. There’s also a new-old 1990’s press interview, and a few new Trivia bits.

I just have to put together the Screenwriting, In Development and Filmography pages now…

“Bored To Death” HD screencaptures and information page

Apr 5, 2012 Gallery Updates, TV Guest Roles, Website No Comments

I now finally have coverage from Isla’s guest appearance on Bored To Death for you. She appeared on two episodes last year during it’s third season run, playing a character named Rose Hiney. Rose was a detective/Jonathan’s girlfriend/… Jonathan’s half-sister. She was her usual funny self and had some great one-liners. Plus it was an interesting change of pace seeing her in a television series. She also had great chemistry with lead star Jason Schwartzman who plays Jonathan. Unfortunately the series was cancelled in December, so any plans for Isla to return are now obviously not going to happen … which is a shame, as I really wanted to see what they did with her storyline!

As for the show-related updates, I’ve added stills and HD screencaptures from both of the episodes Isla appeared in. I’ve also written our filmography information page for the project, containing all the information I can find on Isla’s part, including exclusively written episode synopses, and a bunch of quotes I transcribed whilst watching. I’ll add clips from her episodes when I start completing the Video section.

Media section done!

Apr 4, 2012 Website No Comments

Our Media section is now complete! Today I’ve finished it off by adding pages for i-Backgrounds, Icons, and Twitter Backgrounds, which join the other pages that I added last week. I hope you enjoy all the goodies in there and find something useful to decorate your computer/favourite forum/Twitter/etc.! I had to fiddle around with the Icon pages to get it to work, so let me know if you come across any errors in there (or anywhere else for that matter).

Remember that I’m always very happy to receive your media contributions, so if you have some fanart of any kind and would like to share it, we would love to display it here!

All that’s left content wise now is the Career section, so look out for updates in there in the next week or so.

Isla on the set of “Now You See Me” last week

Apr 2, 2012Apr 4, 2012 "Now You See Me", Gallery Updates, Videos No Comments

The filming for Now You See Me has now moved from New Orleans to New York City, and last week we finally got our first look at Isla on the set! Photos have surfaced of her filming on the Lower East Side last week with her co-stars Jesse Eisenberg and Woody Harrelson. Isla’s character is called Henley, a master illusion builder who helps the gang pull off their tricks. Photos from this sighting can be seen in our Gallery, and further down this post is a short video with footage of Isla and Jesse waiting to shoot a scene. It looks like Isla is having fun on this set (as always)!

The Daily Mail and OK Magazine also have some good pics from the set, which we unfortunately can’t post here. And you can see some great fan-taken photos here and here.
