'Ecstasy' Actor Dean McDermott on Kristin Kreuk

 

Actor Dean McDermott, who plays Hugh Thompson in Irvine Welsh's Ecstasy, was interviewed by Matt J. Horn and talks about his career, his role in the film, and what it was like working with Kristin Kreuk!

 

blog kristin Kreuk ecstasy movie poster

"The film stars Adam Sinclair, Kristin Kreuk, Billy Boyd, Carlo Rota, Ashley Pover, Keram Malicki-Sanchez and Olivia Andrup – with Rob Heydon onboard as director – what was it like working with the cast and crew on-set? Any good anecdotes?

It was great working with Kristin, she was open and up for anything. Some actors are precious about what they want to do, or how others should "handle" them. She is a wee thing and was up for quite a rough face grab in one scene. Take after take she was a keener. She was like "bring it". Both her and Rob were totally okay with going off script, and improving. My line: "I shag like a porn star!!!" was a hit with the audience..."

I couldn't help, but feel a tug in my heart, watching these old clips.  He was such a talented actor who truly embodied the heroic spirit of Superman on and off the screen. He is sorely missed.

Emily Procter Honors Producer Jerry Bruckheimer

 

According to jewishjournal, 'The Museum of Tolerance' held its annual 'National Tribute Dinner' last week, at the Beverly Hilton, where Emily Procter presented the humanitarian award to mega producer Jerry Bruckheimer.

From: jewishjournal

"Actress Emily Procter, star of "CSI: Miami," presented Bruckheimer with his award, but instead of focusing her remarks on the producer, she told an impromptu story about her first real estate purchase. After a seemingly meandering tale about the obstacles in purchasing this home and the magnificent orange tress that sat in the backyard, it turned out the owner was a Holocaust survivor who, when learning of her appreciation for the trees, granted her the sale.

Visibly choked up, Procter said, "He planted those trees in honor of his family"—who perished in the Holocaust—"and he said, 'I'll sell you the house if you care for the trees."

"On the show, Kreuk's character is a beautiful, horse-riding, girl-next-door type who is the object of most of the male characters' affections. This summer, life may imitate art when she meets one of her closest friends at his all-boys college in Nevada. Is she afraid she'll get swarmed? "I'll be fine. They're not the type of guys that...they're not the typical males. At least I'm going to keep telling myself that until I go!" she laughs" ~ 'Fashion 18' (Fall 2002)
