Jilena Cori has wrapped shooting a role on The Good Doctor Episode #105.

The Good Doctor is an American medical-drama television series, developed by David Shore, based on the 2013 South Korean series of the same name. The show is produced by Sony Pictures Television and ABC Studios, with Shore serving as showrunner. The series began airing on ABC on September 25, 2017.

The series stars Freddie Highmore as Shaun Murphy, a young pediatric surgeon with autism and savant syndrome at San Jose St. Bonaventure Hospital. Antonia Thomas, Nicholas Gonzalez, Chuku Modu, Beau Garrett, Hill Harper, Richard Schiff, and Tamlyn Tomita also star in the show. The series received a put pilot commitment at ABC after a previous attempted series did not move forward at CBS Television Studios in 2015; The Good Doctor was ordered to series in May 2017. On October 3, 2017, ABC picked up the series for a full season of 18 episodes.

Shaun Murphy, a young autistic surgeon who has savant syndrome, relocates from a quiet country life to join the surgical unit at the prestigious San Jose St. Bonaventure Hospital — a move strongly supported by his mentor, Dr. Aaron Glassman. Having survived a troubled childhood, Shaun is alone in the world and unable to personally connect with those around him, but he finds his niche using his extraordinary medical skill and intuition to save lives and challenge the skepticism of his colleagues.

With Freddie Highmore (Bates Motel) and Richard Schiff (The West Wing) on its bill, The Good Doctor isn’t lacking for star power.

But perhaps more interestingly, the new ABC drama is one of the highest profile series ever to shine a light on autism – a condition that makes communication difficult for an affected person, though can gift them with incredible powers of reasoning and intellect.

Monique Phillips books a role on the Web Series “This Blows“.

Network: CBC
Executive Producer: Bruce McCulloch, Susan Cavan
Producer(s): Caitlin Brown
Director: Cole Northey
Writer: Bruce McCulloch

Storyline: This Blows is an 8 part digital miniseries set in the world of rainy, hipster Vancouver where the lead, Anna Gowen, discovers she can blow people up with her anger. A thoughtful, action-packed, female driven horror comedy series, This Blows will (quite literally) explode what it means to be a young, people-pleasing woman on a journey through discovering how to express anger. The show’s tone is grounded, odd, but believable. Amid all the gore, our character’s energy remains soulful, playful, and at times savage. A hybrid of Heathers with the unbridled energy of (say) Evil Dead, This Blows is an homage to the messy, low- budget gore of old-school horror films — this time with a modern feminist twist.

Kyla Wise and Audrey Wise Alvarez have wrapped shooting on CW’s iZombie, now filming season 4!

The show about an undead morgue attendant who assumes the personality of whichever brain she is eating and uses it to solve murders is one of the most consistently delightful shows on television. We would expect nothing less from Rob Thomas, who also created cult favourite Veronica Mars. Thomas runs iZombie along with Diane Ruggiero-Wright.

Rose McIver toplines the series, and stars alongside Malcolm Goodwin, Rahul Kohli, Robert Buckley, David Anders, and Aly Michalka.
The iZombie TV show is based on the characters from the Vertigo comic of the same name.

In season 4 the series will pick up three months after the big outbreak of zombies, and Seattle is now walled off from the rest of the world. The zombies and humans that are left in New Seattle are trying to live together. The population of humans is not nearly as high as Seattle used to have. Once the knowledge that zombies existed got out, there was a mass exodus — but not everyone could leave. Those that got stuck are the ones trying to survive.

Executive producer Diane Ruggiero-Wright explains that it’s even more complicated than that, as there are those in New Seattle trying to get out, but there are people outside the city who are sick and are trying to get in because they believe the cure is in the city.

Naika Toussaint and Douglas Dack will be filming a role this month on Hallmark’s “The Christmas Train”.

Based on the #1 New York Times bestselling book of the same name by David Baldacci, The Christmas Train is a Hallmark Hall of Fame movie set to premiere during the network’s ambitious slate of holiday programming later this year.

The story follows Tom Langdon, a 41 year old journalist. Outside of work, Tom doesn’t have a whole lot going for him; he’s divorced with no kids, no siblings and his father died years ago. His mother, who is the only one he had left, has just passed away from a stroke. During this desperate state, the lowest point in his life, he turns to his ex-wife for help, but she won’t even accept his collect call.

Tom sets out on a train trip across the United States, from D.C. to California, just in time for Christmas. His experiences along the way cause him to rekindle a former love and rediscover both himself and the magic of Christmas.

Dermot Mulroney (My Best Friend’s Wedding, Pure Genius) is set to star in the movie as Tom. Dermont just recently wrapped up a role on Twentieth Century Fox’s big budget feature The Mountain Between Us, which also filmed in British Columbia. He’ll be joined by Kimberly Williams-Paisley (Darrow & Darrow, Father of the Bride), Joan Cusack (Shameless, Toy Story 4) and Danny Glover (Lethal Weapon).

Chance Hurstfield will shortly begin filming a role in an upcoming Netflix feature.

This “ballsy project,” The Eggplant Emoji, centers on a teenager who accidentally cuts off his own penis during a camping trip, and he and his friends must race against time to save the appendage. It’ll be an R-rated bro-com in the vein of Superbad.

Jake Szymanski, the Funny or Die alum who helmed Tour de Pharmacy and 2015’s 7 Days in Hell, has signed on to direct the project,

Kevin Burrows and Matt Mider, creators of digital animated series Gentlemen Lobsters, penned the script for The Eggplan Emoji, with Ben Stiller, Nicky Weinstock, and Workaholics creators Blake Anderson, Adam Devine, Anders Holm and Kyle Newacheck all serving as producers.
