"Incorporated" Sneak Peek! New J.O. HBO Mockumentary"Tour de Pharmacy"!

The new SyFy channel drama Incorporated is almost here. The official web page and Twitter account ( @IncSyfy ) are chock full of intriguing goodies including this great sneak peek clip with Julia Ormond featured front and center. I already suspect that this will become one of my all-time favorite Julia performances. I love what I am seeing so far. Premiere is set for the Fall.




II. Julia will be appear in Andy Samberg HBO cycling mockumentary Tour de Pharmacy. The film will also star Orlando Bloom, Will Forte, Dolph Lundgren, John Cena, Daveed Diggs, Phylicia Rashad, Mike Tyson and Nathan Fielder. The film is described as a follow-up to Samberg's tennis mockumentary 7 Days in Hell. You can read more about the project on ScreenCrush.

III. An interview with Hank Mann, the production designer on Rememory (release date Spring 2017). According to the article on EIN News

"Rememory revolves around Sam Bloom (Peter Dinklage) and Carolyn Dunn (Julia Ormand) as they try to get to the bottom of the mysterious death of Carolyn's husband, Gordon Dunn(Martin Donovan). An ingenious professor who was preparing to unveil an innovative new invention capable of recording and playing a person's memory, Dunn's invention may just hold the answers to his sudden death." 


I find it a fascinating window into the look and feel of the upcoming film. I'm really looking forward to this one. The late Anton Yelchin also stars.

"Incorporated" Trailer is here! Peter Dinklage Wants Your Memories & Julia Speaks for the Coalition To Abolish Slavery and Trafficking!

The first trailer for the upcoming SyFy Channel series Incorporated (starring Sean Teale, Julia Ormond, Dennis Haysbert, and David Hewlett) is here. It looks extremely promising to me!

 

 II. Peter Dinklage and director Mark Palansky are asking for your memories. The film Rememory, as described by IndieWire "centers on Dinklage’s character, Sam Boom, who tries to solve the murder of an inventor who created a machine that extracts and records memories in their so-called purest state. Julia Ormond, Anton Yelchin, Henry Ian Cusick and Martin Donovan will also star in the mystery thriller." Julia will play the deceased inventor's widow. On the official website, Dinklage and Palansky ask that you share videos that can be selected to be included in the actual film.
