Well it's that time again
Actually it's been quite a while since the last Newsletter - November 2007
Where does the time go???
I dunno
But there has been lots happening with Johnathon, so here goes:
Johnathon
now has Official MySpace and Facebook pages (well you probably already
know that if you are reading this from either of them).. heh...
I've been a bit slack with the Facebook site but hang in there...
And
yes, these are Johnathon's personal and official sites, but are both
moderated by me. Johnathon just doesn't have the time to maintain them
nor to reply personally to messages, but I do pass on ALL messages to
him and he really does appreciate them. So keep them coming. He also
drops in and fiddles around from time to time with my words of
encouragement ringing shrilly in his ears... which go something like "And don't touch or delete anything OR ELSE...!!!..." So far so good... :)
We
both want to thank everyone who has taken the time to send messages and
comment on the Blogs and photos. They are all fantastic, so keep them
coming too.
OK - now to some news
Johnathon is currently filming a Sony TV movie called Murder in Sin City.
It's based on the true story of the death of Ted Binion and Johnathon
plays the main character Rick Tabish who was set up and framed for
Binion's murder. This awesome story also stars Matthew Modine, Mena
Suvari and Marcia Gay Harden. It's being directed by the amazing Peter
Medak and should appear on TV around September 2008. Johnathon has
done an amazing amount of research for this role (as he does for all
his roles)...
Fear Itself
The first episode Eater
premieres on NBC tonight. This screenplay was penned by Johnathon and
his business partner Richard Chizmar and is based on the book Eater by
Peter Crowther.
ORGANIZM (Living Hell)
The DVD will be released June 10th 2008 and you can order a copy from Amazon.com.
It has DVD commentary with Johnathon, Erica Leerhsen and
writer/director Richard Jefferies. Johnathon said they had so much fun
doing the commentary, so it should be a blast...
Little Chenier
This multi award winning film is being released on DVD July 8th 2008 and you can order a copy from Amazon.com
