Sia...I've read that before, and I can't say it makes me happy. I think they had to regret that decision because viewership dropped off after that. It seems a lot of Gale fans were watching Vanished and with him gone...they just Vanished.

I've heard first hand comments that Gale is REALLY intense when he's working. I've read that he scrutinizes every role because he wants to understand his character to be most authentic. He was working on a project that they had a really tight shooting schedule...like only 12 days or less. There were some fans on set who said that he got really upset when approached and was angry they were allowed while he was working. These fans contributed a lot of money to the project, but apparently the perks they received by the writer/director never approved it with Gale.

I can understand he would get upset if they approached while he was working - it's like someone coming in to your job and getting in your face. The writer/director really should have sorted it with Gale before he told people they could come in and see him.

Getting authentic and being such a strong character is why he is such a good actor and why he has so many fans

Replacing Gale with Eddie Cibrian was a HUGE mistake on their part, it's what subsequently killed the Vanished.

Actors can be very sensitive about their craft, Gale is no different. How can you play a role perfect if you don't know the first thing about the character? It's understandable that he places so much time and energy into a character he portrays. That's how it should be. In a lot of ways, the making of KMKM was a mess, I think it was the making of that film where fans kept walking up to him.

I agree with you girls about Gales approach to work. It just shows how real honest he is which is great attribute.

On the set of ADOPTABLE

You have to be concentrated to get into your character and fans approaching you in between your work really can be annoying.. especially if those fans expect you to pay attion to them.. I guess he wouldn't have minded it if people just were standing an watching.. at my work sometimes other coworkers or even a ringing phone annoys me, so I totally can understand him with this..

He doesn't look like he wouldn't have been uncomfortable with his co workers at this party..

Thanks for the pics Sia

Yeah, sometimes you really have maintain boundaries between yourself and others, no matter how much of a fan you are.

I like the photos from the set of Adoptable . They look like they had fun.

I think sometimes the fans get a little excited maybe and do forget this is their jobs and they still need to do their jobs as best as they can.

Of course that said if I saw any of these stars I am not sure if I could always contain myself either .

Yes, but I'm biased because I love the film. Others will say it wasn't for him, but he was good for the part.

I haven't watched with her yet. That would be nice to do. When you are here perhaps we can watch with my sister, mom and aunt.
