Many apologies and exciting news!

Filed under: Acting Journey — Don @ 8:30 pm

First off, I want to apologies to those who read my blog, I have been very lazy about blogging this month. The weird thing is I have had some cool news and fun experiences over the last month and did not blog about them. I used to blog once a week for almost two years and now I have trouble blogging once a month. I guess I need to re-evaluate my feelings on this blog and decide what to do. So, for now, on to the cool news!

I got an audition for a small speaking role in the movie Chatham being filmed in Cape Cod a few weeks ago, and even better yet I found out recently that I got the part! Yippee! Last year I had a gaol to be cast in a speaking role in a movie with a budget of $100,000. This year I got a speaking role in this movie that has a budget of eight million dollars. Wow! I can hardly believe it! The movie will star Martin Landau, Anne Archer for sure, and it looks like Burt Reynolds and Dennis Hopper are signed on as well.

A new cast was was formed with David Carradine, Bruce Dern, Rip Torn, and Mariel Hemingway.

I have one day of filming and my shoot date is at the end of March. Very exciting! I am not sure why I have waited so long to blog about it; I have known two weeks. I guess I was afraid of jinxing it or something if I talked to much about it to early. I guess I had trouble believing this for myself!

Also the TV Pilot I talk about occasionally looks like it finally has a solid shooting date in June. I am so glad the producers have taken the time they needed to make sure the script was right and that the actors are all connected. The cast has been working together in rehearsals for over eight months now and we need to be fully connected to make it work; I think we now are!

‘Tis all for now!

I have a very small role, about 3 lines, but that is pretty damn cool. I described the movie in detail here, here, here , here, here and here. […]
