Bringing over Cat2004's posts from the previous thread.

Hi all! I too hope some great news tomorrow on ET! (real news and not gossip and controversy... )

I wanted to post here some Alex Cross tidbits yesterday, but I have been involved in quite a "jate storm" because of script pages lol!...

So... I read all MF related infos on twitter, and I know you too do that here. Remember that actor "killed" by MF on set in October ? (posted by CallieUK)

“MisadventureTR Timothy J Richardson
Getting shot by Matthew Fox is such a cool way to die. LOL! I am honored to work with such a brilliant actor. Go watch I, Alex Cross 2012”

I think you didn't see what he posted next:

"It'll be one hellava movie. I loved working with Matthew. I believe he'll be compare with Heath Ledger in this role."

(= a comparison with "The Joker", no less!)
http://twitter.com/#!/MisadventureTR/status/125069691759767552

and also: " The movie is set to come out sometime in 2012. I've attached a picture of me and Matthew on set."!!!



I found two other nice comments about Foxy's acting:

- one by someone who I think is the real Steve Bowen, aka one of the producers:
"September 16. I’m on set with the crew…. Matthew is a stunning actor/bad guy. Wait till you see him!"

Matthew Fox as a serial killer | Lost for a reason, a blog for LOST fans

- and last week, by James Patterson himself (author of the Alex Cross books and co-author of the script) in a video interview. Of course (!) he praises the movie, "It's the best Alex Cross movie yet" and Tyler Perry (we'll see!)... AND he has a few words about Foxy, "he wanted to play the villain" "he's terrific":

Home | The Official James Patterson Website
(on the right, Facebook window on Nov 16, video at 2:19 or so)

Then I read a tidbit by the director, Rob Cohen, about the last interaction between Alex Cross and Michael Sullivan in the movie (no pic), I will put it in spoiler font for those who don't want to know, you just have to tell me how to do it on this forum!

So... I found how to post spoilers! Instead of the word QUOTE in brackets, you just have to type SP in brackets before the phrase, and of course /SP in brackets at the end. If anyone want to comment about my info below, do the same thing, thank you!

Highlight the blank zone to read:

Whoops. I accidentally posted in the old thread. Sorry.

I wasn't as excited for this movie until now. Foxy playing a villain will be so fun to see. I'm anxious for this to come out. With all the weight he lost, it shows how dedicated he is to his craft. All the more exciting.

Hello, hello Foxy fans. I am, of course, adding myself to your addicted group
I can't wait for this movie to come out. He did an awesome job playing one of the bad guys in Vantage point.. I'm sure he'll amaze us with this one. I want it to come out already!

I can't wait. I know he'll be incredible, because his character in the play was pretty mean at times and he was awesome in that.

Thanks for the welcome.
Btw, I saw his play in London, too. And I was amazed by him because he was so different from Jack. He really was very mean a few times. But, as different as he was, I still saw a lot of LOST parallels in this play, LOL. Us Jaters see parallels everywhere.

Welcome, SoFeelingTheLove!

I went to the Foxy play in London too (twice). He was amazing!!!

Jack is Matthew Fox but Matthew Fox is not just Jack.
He made a great Bobby!
He was also a brilliant pre-Jack "Frank Taylor" too. (Haunted)

He will be TOTALLY different again as Michael Sullivan...so NOT Jack Shephard but SOOO Matthew Fox-Actor Extraordinaire!

While I miss Jack, I hope I never have to miss Foxy.

We're doing well on this board for play attendance! That makes five of us now

Did you get his autograph afterwards as well, SoFeelingTheLove? What's your name, BTW?

This!

I can't believe ET bumped their Alex Cross segment for some trashy stuff instead

Re the spoiler, we know he will be, because we've already seen the BTS pic from twitter.

I hope a bit of weight's back on by now.

And not a Kimmel-type shower either.

Camera needs to do a full-body shot

Welcome SoFeelingTheLove!!!

And hi Erica!!!

That sucks they bummed it. Hopefully they'll show it again soon. I remember them doing that years ago when they used to have LOST segments and something "important" to them broke. Hopefully it'll be in one of the next few episodes.
