She’s A Real ‘Con’ Artist!! ;-)

Posted on by

Madeleine Arthur has been busy filming a role in an upcoming short “art piece” film entitled Enclosure shooting in Upstate New York.

Director: Rachel Rose
Producer: Animal Kingdom and David Kaplan

This project is set in 18th Century Britain, in an alternate universe in which the invention of paper money has sent society into possibly-revolutionary convulsions.

Storyline:
 In the year 1766, the English King consolidates his power by seizing common lands from the people, but accidentally stimulates the economy by introducing a feverish kind of land speculation. While religious disputes tear the country apart, and the most far-sighted citizens seek to flee to the New World, farmers who fear imminent land seizures are preyed on by Road Babies, travelling con artists who try to buy (and re-sell) land one step ahead of the King’s Men, using forged cash to grease their forward path in life.

The film will premiere in 2019 at Luma Arles and then exhibit at the Park Avenue Armory in 2020.

The Legend that is Dean

Congratulations to Dean Hinchey. He has just wrapped a role on The CW’s DC’s Legends of Tomorrow Episode #401.

DC Legends of Tomorrow is an American action-adventure television series developed by Greg Berlanti, Marc Guggenheim, Andrew Kreisberg and Phil Klemmer, who are also executive producers along with Sarah Schechter and Chris Fedak; Klemmer serves as showrunner. The series, based on the characters of DC Comics, airs on The CW and is a spin-off featuring characters introduced in Arrow and The Flash along with new characters, set in the same fictional universe. The season was ordered in April 2018, and production began in July.  The fourth season is set to begin airing on October 22, 2018, and is set to run for 16 episodes on The CW.

Legends of Tomorrow will feature dangerous magical creatures as the main villains in Season 4.

Warner Bros. Television has revealed the synopsis for the upcoming season of Legends of Tomorrow. It seems the DC team will be facing the consequences of letting time crumble in order to help defeat Mallus.

The Legends softened the barrier between worlds, allowing the mythical “Fugitives” from fairytales and legends to invade Earth. John Constantine will be joining and helping the team to defeat this new threat, “which is now returning to our world in droves and making a real mess of things,” according to WB.

The DC show has promoted Season 3 villain Nora Darhk to series regular.

Nora is the daughter of Damien Darhk (Neal McDonough) and appeared several times throughout Season 3 trying to release the demon Mallus. It’s not known yet if Nora will be the main villain in Season 4.

Matt Ryan’s John Constantine has also joined the show as a series regular, while Wally West (Keiynan Lonsdale) won’t be coming back.

Legends of Tomorrow Season 4 premieres on October 22 at 9 pm ET/PT and is set to run for 16 episodes on The CW
