#SPOTTED: MIA WASIKOWSKA IN TORONTO FOR “MAPS TO THE STARS”
I'll be the first to admit that 2013 has been a lackluster year for Productions in Toronto and it pains me to see the Films which our Friends in Vancouver and Montreal have been seeing, with an explosive amount of Star Power. That being said, I was thrilled to hear that the brilliant Mia Wasikowska would be among the Talent in the City filming this Summer. After seeing her at TIFF 2011, I was disappointed I never got my moment to meet her and the scheduling just didn't align.
I will be the ...

#FILMING: DATES CONFIRMED FOR “POLTERGEIST” REMAKE IN TORONTO
They're here! After word broke out that a Poltergeist Remake was in development, many of us had our opinions about the matter. Being a Critical and Box Office success earning $121 million, which back in 1982 was a huge deal, the Horror also is not without its share of controversy, with Child Actor Heather O'Rourke who starred in the iconic role of Carol Anne Freeling, having passed away under sudden circumstances at the age of 12. It will be interesting to see who will be brave enough to take ...

#SPOTTED: OLIVIA WILLIAMS IN TORONTO FOR “MAPS TO THE STARS”
Acclaimed British Actress Olivia Williams is among the Talent currently in Toronto filming David Cronenberg's latest Drama, Maps to the Stars.

MY WEEK AS AN EXTRA ON “PACIFIC RIM” | SIGNED PHOTO SET GIVEAWAY
Back in January 2012, I had the opportunity to do a bit of work on $180-million mega-opus from Director Guillermo del Toro, Pacific Rim. I was incredibly honoured to do work days on the Production as a Background Performer. I was unemployed at the time, having lost a job I had for many years and always dreamed of being in a Movie, so, why not? Because we had signed Confidentiality Agreements, details we weren't permitted to be disclose any details until filming had completely fully. After ...

#SPOTTED: JASON PRIESTLEY IN TORONTO FOR “SAVING HOPE”
90210h yeah! Jason Priestley may best be recognized as Brandon Walsh from '90s Hit Series Beverly Hills, 90210, but it is the 416 where he's been much of late.

#SPOTTED: SPICE GIRLS’ MELANIE BROWN & STEPHEN BELAFONTE IN TORONTO FOR “TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS”
Basically, a dream come true. I have absolutely no shame in admitting that the Spice Girls are my favourite Music Group of all time and the moment I hear Stop, Say You'll Be There, 2 Become 1 or Spice Up Your Life, my day can go from catastrophically bad to amazingly great. I have idolized and still idolize them greatly. My heart still is filled with hope for a possible Reunion Tour even though at my core I know it is unlikely with each of them having moved along their own respective ...

#SPOTTED: LILY COLLINS IN TORONTO FOR “LOVE, ROSIE”
There are few Celebrities I am as cosmically in-sync with as Lily Collins. I keep crossing paths with her, honestly not even intentionally! Remember last Summer when we first spotted her out and about with Jamie Campbell Bower (read here)?
