Hello all,
Rufus told me yesterday that he found out about the Paradise Lost "delay" about the same time as the rest of us. He is happy, however, at this point in time, as he has a four-day filming of a cameo role in Tom Stoppard's "Parade's End". Here is a little blurb from the LA Times explaining the mini-series:
From "Band of Brothers" to "The Pacific," HBO knows its epic battles, and it's continuing that focus with "Parade's End," a five-part miniseries set during World War I, written by Tom Stoppard ("Shakespeare In Love"), and starring British actors Benedict Cumberbatch (of the BBC's "Sherlock") and Rebecca Hall ("Vicky Christina Barcelona").
Directed by Susanna White, who got an Emmy
for another HBO war drama, "Generation Kill," the series is based four books by novelist Ford Madox Ford that were published during the 1920s.
The story follows a love triangle among a conservative English aristocrat (Cumberbatch), his wife (Hall), and a young suffragette.
Production on "Parade's End" is scheduled to begin in the fall.
-- Melissa Maerz
ATTAM has wrapped, as you probably know. Now it's this bit and unemployment until something else comes up.
I know you sleuths out there will dig up good stuff on Parade's End. I must get to work!
Cheers!
