BBC doc-maker and journalist Louis Theroux teams up with director John Dower and double Academy Award winning producer Simon Chinn (Searching for Sugar, Man On Wire) to explore the self-mythologizing Church of Scientology. Following a long fascination with the religion and with much experience in dealing with eccentric, unpalatable and unexpected human behavior, the beguilingly unassuming Theroux won’t take no for an answer when his request to enter the Church’s headquarters is turned down. Inspired by the Church’s use of filming techniques, and aided by ex-members of the organization, Theroux uses actors to replay some incidents people claim they experienced as members in an attempt to better understand the way it operates. In a bizarre twist, it becomes clear that the Church is also making a film about Louis Theroux. Suffused with a good dose of humor and moments worthy of a Hollywood script, MY SCIENTOLOGY MOVIE is as outlandish as it is revealing.

  • From Hollywood to Hanging Rock Victoria Secures Hbo
    Friday, 3 June, 2016 FROM HOLLYWOOD TO HANGING ROCK VICTORIA SECURES HBO HIT ‘THE LEFTOVERS’ Victoria has landed a Hollywood coup, securing filming of the third and final season of star-studded HBO and Warner Bros. series The Leftovers in Melbourne. Premier Daniel Andrews was joined by HBO's Senior Vice Presient of West Coast Production Jay Roewe at Warner Bros. Studios in Los Angeles, to make the exciting announcement. Creating more than 250 local jobs and injecting around $20 million into the state’s economy, The Leftovers is the largest international television production deal since Childhood’s End was shot in early 2015. Created by Damon Lindelof and Tom Perrotta, based on Perrotta’s best-selling novel of the same name, The Leftovers is a drama that explores a world in shock and the lives that are changed forever, when 140 million people inexplicably vanish. The first two seasons featured a star-studded cast including Justin Theroux, Carrie Coon, Amy Brenneman, Christopher Eccleston, Liv Tyler, Regina King and Ann Dowd. Broadcast across the US in 2015, the second season was the third-most watched drama, attracting around 6 million viewers every episode. It’s the second time American entertainment powerhouses HBO and Warner Bros. have chosen Victoria as a filming location. Warner Bros. chose Victoria to film its visually stunning feature Where the Wild Things Are, and HBO selected Victoria as the backdrop to its award-winning 10 part television miniseries, The Pacific. A range of unique Melbourne and regional locations will set the scene for the final instalment of the series, with filming to commence in June 2016.

  • HBO Renews the Leftovers for a Second Season
    HBO renews The Leftovers for a second season Miami, FL – August 13, 2014 – HBO Latin America announced the renewal of the intriguing original drama series The Leftovers for a second season. Currently airing its first season every Sunday at 22:00 hrs,* the series is set in the fictional small town of Mapleton, where residents try to navigate their lives three years after the fateful October 14 global event dubbed “The Departure,” when 140 million people – 2% of the world’s population – disappeared without a trace. Based on Tom Perrotta’s bestselling novel of the same name, the series shows how preconceptions are shattered when ordinary people react to inexplicable events that can unite or divide families and communities, revealing how the strain of an unprecedented calamity can turn people’s faith into cynicism, paranoia, madness or cult-like fanaticism. The ten-episode first season of The Leftovers premiered in the Caribbean on June 29, with the season finale slated to debut on September 7. Season one cast regulars include Justin Theroux, Amy Brenneman, Christopher Eccleston, Liv Tyler, Chris Zylka, Margaret Qualley, Carrie Coon, Emily Meade, Amanda Warren, Ann Down, Michael Gaston, Max and Charlie Carver and Annie Q. Created by Damon Lindelof (Emmy® award winner for Lost) and Tom Perrotta, The Leftovers is executive produced by Lindelof, Perrotta, Peter Berg and Sarah Aubrey; co-executive produced by Ron Yerxa and Albert Berger; with Lindeolf serving as showrunner. *Atlantic Standard time.
