2015 Local actor joins Fantastic Four, The Choice, One Tree Hill, Under the Dome

First things first let’s give HUGE kudos to our local boy, Anthony Reynolds. He is hitting the big screen this weekend in Fantastic Four. He was fortunate to have been on set for 12 weeks in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, playing opposite Tim Blake Nelson and the Four. He plays a Civilian Military Official. So give him a huge round of applause when you see him on the screen this weekend!

As Under the Dome officially wraps on season 3 and on the City of Wilmington, The Choice begins their reshoots. Benjamin Walker, Teresa Palmer and Maggie Grace have returned to Wilmywood and will begin tomorrow morning. They will be shooting in multiple places around town including EUE/Screen Gems. There will only be one full shoot day.

Oh and in case you wanted to know, our Domies head to Ideal Cement today and will finish the season at EUE/Screen Gems.

Today and tomorrow our One Tree Hill gang home home. The One Tree Hill Convention is this weekend at the Wilmington Convention Center. Please welcome Chad Michael Murray, Bethany Joy Lenz, Hilary Burton, Barry Corbin, Craig Sheffer, and Paul Johansson.

AND THE WINNER OF THE ONE TREE HILL FAN PRIZE PACK IS…

Also in attendance will be Lee Norris, you know him as Mouth. I still love him as Minkus (Boy Meets World). He will be my special guest on the Sunny Morning Show tomorrow in the 9 o’clock hour on Sunny 104.5. Feel free to call in with your questions and comments. Sunny 104.5 Studio Line: 910-790-1045 or Tweet me your questions and comments: @WilmywoodNC

Since it’s Thursday, I thought I would do a throwback and break out some photos from my fun times on One Tree Hill. I only got to do 4 episodes, but I loved every moment. Now, can you name these episodes? Pictured with me are some awesome peeps! SFX Make Up Artist and all around bad ass Rick Pour and the incredible stuntwomen Tina Wanner and Haley Nott.

Rich posted this on my wall yesterday! Good find! Wilmington and the film industry get a little love on the first eight minutes of this podcast from Orlando Jones!… LISTEN NOW!

Stephen Collins who most know from the television show 7th Heaven, and many here know him as Dr. Gene Porter from Revolution has been accused of sexually

abusing three underage girls. According to CNN’s NewDay, in the divorce documents filed by his estranged second wife, Faye Grant, Collins admitted to her that he molested them more than a decade earlier. Two of the girls lived in New York, one in Los Angeles, according to the divorce papers. Police in New York are aware of child molestation allegations by a former relative against Collins, but due to the statute of limitations, he cannot face charges in that case. In New York, a person has five years from their 18th birthday to make an accusation of sexual abuse to authorities. That time has passed.
