  • Billion Dollar Bond Girl Mi6 Confidential Issue #9 out Now
    www.mi6confidential.com - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - GEMMA ARTERTON ‒ THE BILLION DOLLAR BOND GIRL MI6 CONFIDENTIAL ISSUE #9 OUT NOW (London, UK, March 21st 2011) Few knew her name when she was cast as James Bond’s latest female foil in the 2008 film “Quantum of Solace”, but the role of Strawberry Fields was about to launch Gemma Arterton’s career in to the stratosphere. A graduate of RADA and a regular with the Royal Shakespeare Company, Gemma had only just made her first big screen appearance in “St. Trinian’s” when she was beckoned by director Marc Forster for a screen test. The rest, as they say, is history. After bedding Bond and coming to a sticky end, Gemma’s character won the hearts of fans as a throw-back to the classic style of Ian Fleming’s heroines. In an interview published by MI6 Confidential magazine, Gemma explained how she wanted to bring a bit of edge to her character. “We wanted to make her really retro and a bit of a throwback. It’s typically Fleming and a little bit tongue in cheek,” she said. “She wore a typical raincoat and yet in one scene she didn’t have anything on underneath. We tried to make her straight laced but with a real naughty edge to her.” “I’m not sure whether she’ll be the Bond girl who the boys pin up on their walls but they might say ‘I don’t know what it is about that Agent Fields, but I quite fancy her!’ She’s the thinking man’s crumpet.” But what of the ‘Bond Girl Curse’ that has supposedly killed the career of many an actress? That may have been true for some in decades past, but every leading Bond Girl in the 21st century has used her time with 007 to great effect, and perhaps there is no better example than Gemma.

  • Loki Production Brief
    PRODUCTION BRIEF “I am Loki, and I am burdened with glorious purpose.” —Loki arvel Studios’ “Loki,” an original live-action series created exclusively for Disney+, features the mercurial God of Mischief as he steps out of his brother’s shadow. The series, described as a crime-thriller meets epic-adventure, takes place after the events Mof “Avengers: Endgame.” “‘Loki’ is intriguingly different with a bold creative swing,” says Kevin Feige, President, Marvel Studios and Chief Creative Officer, Marvel. “This series breaks new ground for the Marvel Cinematic Universe before it, and lays the groundwork for things to come.” The starting point of the series is the moment in “Avengers: Endgame” when the 2012 Loki takes the Tesseract—from there Loki lands in the hands of the Time Variance Authority (TVA), which is outside of the timeline, concurrent to the current day Marvel Cinematic Universe. In his cross-timeline journey, Loki finds himself a fish out of water as he tries to navigate—and manipulate—his way through the bureaucratic nightmare that is the Time Variance Authority and its by-the-numbers mentality. This is Loki as you have never seen him. Stripped of his self- proclaimed majesty but with his ego still intact, Loki faces consequences he never thought could happen to such a supreme being as himself. In that, there is a lot of humor as he is taken down a few pegs and struggles to find his footing in the unforgiving bureaucracy of the Time Variance Authority. As the series progresses, we see different sides of Loki as he is drawn into helping to solve a serious crime with an agent 1 of the TVA, Mobius, who needs his “unique Loki perspective” to locate the culprits and mend the timeline.

  • “WHAT HAPPENED to MONDAY?” PRODUCTION NOTES Synopsis In
    “WHAT HAPPENED TO MONDAY?” PRODUCTION NOTES Synopsis In a not so distant future, where overpopulation and famine have forced governments to undertake a drastic One-Child Policy, seven identical sisters live a hide-and-seek existence pursued by the Child Allocation Bureau. The Bureau, directed by the fierce Nicolette Cayman, enforces a strict family planning agenda that the sisters outwit by taking turns assuming the identity of one person: Karen Settman. Taught by their grandfather who raised and named them - Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday - each can go outside once a week as their common identity, but are only free to be themselves in the prison of their own apartment. That is until, one day, Monday does not come home...... THE FOLLOWING PRODUCTION NOTES CONTAIN SPOILERS. DO NOT REVEAL KEY ELEMENTS OF THE SCRIPT IN FUTURE AND ANY ARTICLES. “WHAT HAPPENED TO MONDAY?” An Introduction… “WHAT HAPPENED TO MONDAY?” is set in 2073, a near-future, post- dystopian world where cataclysmic weather conditions, over-population and dwindling resources plague the planet. Civil and political unrest, wars and the refugee crisis have changed the landscape of the world. Most of the world powers have fallen and the European Federation has risen as the new superpower. For the human race to survive, the populace is forced to exist in an Orwellian society, where the draconian “One Child Policy” is law and The Child Allocation Bureau dictates that any family reproducing more than one child, will have them removed for cryofreezing until the world’s resources can sustain them. Acclaimed Swedish actress NOOMI RAPACE (The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, Prometheus) takes on the challenge of playing seven identical Settman sisters: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, who have been raised in secret by their grandfather.
