Lamont Jerrett Top End Constructors Hannibal Harris Inspector Andrews CHERYL HINES BIO Actress, Producer and Director Cheryl Hines is a two-time Emmy nominee for her role as Cheryl David on HBO's Golden Globe Award-winning series "Curb Your Enthusiasm," the brainchild of "Seinfeld" co-creator Larry David. Cheryl is currently shooting and starring in the hit ABC comedy series "Suburgatory," opposite Jeremy Sisto and Jane Levy, returning this fall. Cheryl will also be seen this fall in the Vuguru produced web series "We Need Help," launching this September on Yahool Cheryl, starring alongside Rachael Harris, play exaggerated versions of themselves as actresses who share a personal assistant. In addition to creating and producing the show Cheryl also directs all the episodes. This summer Cheryl filmed a co-starring role in the feature film COLD TURKEY, produced by Midway Films. Cheryl co-stars opposite Peter Bogdanovich and Alicia Witt. Set in present-day Pasadena, the film centers on the eccentric Turner clan, an upper-class family torn apart by secrets revealed over a Thanksgiving weekend. Patriarch Poppy (Bogdanovich) has invited his black sheep daughter Nina (Witt) home for the holiday - her first visit in 15 years. Nina immediately clashes with stepmother Deborah (Hines), and competes with her siblings (Holmes and Walger) for Poppy's affection - and money. Over three days, the family gradually disintegrates over who will get Poppy's money - only to discover he's broke. • Cheryl's feature film directorial debut, 'Serious Modnlight" was released last year through Magnolia Films. The film premiered with critical acclaim at the Tribeca Film Festival. Thescreenplay was written by the late Adrienne Shelly, who directed Cheryl in the critically acclaimed "Waitress." The film is a dark comedy centered on the troubled marriage of a high-powered female attorney (played by Meg Ryan) who learns that her husband (Timothy Hutton) is about to leave her for another woman. Cheryl's additional television projects included a co-starring role in the live action/CG adaptation of the Nickelodeon hit animated series "The Fairly Odd Parents" television movie ""A Fairly Odd Movie: Grow Up, Timmy Turner!" opposite Jason Alexander. She had major story arc on the ABC drama series "Brothers and Sisters" and a starring role opposite Megan Mullally in the ABC Television Network series "In the Motherhood," a single camera comedy series chronicling the hilarious ups and downs of motherhood.

Bowen, RUE MORGUE Just how bad can things get? Conrad has found a pornographic video featuring his fiancé. Shocked, he calls the wedding off. But now, after an emotionally brutal week, an abused Jennifer has cut off Conrad's penis - and taken it with her for ransom! A doctor has advised Conrad that if found immediately, there is some hope for re-attachment. But where is Jennifer hiding? Vengeful and furious, Conrad blunders gun first into the underworld of her “blue-film” past, to find her – and his missing member! Starring MICHAEL RODRICK ( Another World, Desolation Angels ), renowned cult actress DEBBIE ROCHON (‘Scream Queen of the Decade'), real life porn legend FRANK OLIVIER (as Daddy Mac), and directed by award winning filmmaker TIM MCCANN ( Revolution #9 , Desolation Angels ), NOWHERE MAN probes and cauterizes the preposterousness of love and revenge. It is both a nasty little film noir and a black humored treatise on the ever shifting balance of power in human relationships.

  • Why Cerebral Palsy Lights a Fire in Cheryl Hines
    NOVEMBER/DECEMBER 2007 BY LINDA CHILDERS Why Cerebral Palsy Lights a Fire in Cheryl Hines ~e actress has become an enthusiastic voice for people with cerebral palsy, helping as many people as she can. She's the quintessential girl next door who has made us laugh as Larry David's exasperated wife on the HBO sitcom Curb Your Enthusiasm and in the movies RV and Waitress. Yet Cheryl Hines also has a serious side, one that surfaces when she talks about cerebral palsy (CP), a neurological disorder that affects her nephew, Michael, who is 4 years old. About 500,000 people in the United States are affected by cerebral palsy, which is defined as brain damage that occurs before or after birth. The number of people with the disorder has increased over the last 30 years as more premature babies survive. Its effects range from barely detectable to devastating loss of motor control. The causes are also diverse, including everything from oxygen deprivation during birth to exposure to certain viral infections shortly before and after birth. Since Michael was born, Hines has become an advocate for the more than 10,000 children born with CP each year. She has visited with members of Congress on behalf of United Cerebral Palsy (UCP), asking them to protect Medicaid because cuts to the federal-state health program would directly impact UCP families. She has also served as the mistress of ceremonies at UCP's 50th anniversary fundraising gala and has transformed her passion for poker into a fundraising mechanism by naming UCP as her beneficiary in celebrity poker tournaments.

  • The Female Brain
    THE FEMALE BRAIN A film by Whitney Cummings Starring Whitney Cummings, Toby Kebbell, Beanie Feldstein, Cecily Strong, Sofia Vergara, Deon Cole, Blake Griffin, Lucy Punch and James Marsden 2017 Los Angeles Film Festival World Premiere Saturday, June 17th at 5:45PM | Arclight Culver City Theatre 2 – World Premiere Sunday, June 18th at 10:00 AM | Culver Theatre 8 – Press & Industry Screening Running Time: 98 minutes Press Contact: The DDA Group [email protected] [email protected] SYNOPSIS A romantic ensemble comedy about modern day relationships, The Female Brain provides insight into the complexities of the male vs female brain at varying stages of love: whether it’s finding the right romantic balance; parenting; expressing emotion; or simply admitting shortcomings when a bathroom remodel goes awry. In the end, detached researcher Dr. Brizendine has to admit that her study of the brain might have a bias that she did not initially consider. DIRECTOR WHITNEY CUMMINGS Q&A with Writer/Director Whitney Cummings Tell us about the concept and story behind The Female Brain. How did the idea/project come to you? I read the book and was enthralled by all the science of it. I was fascinated by all the things I learned about not only female brains, but the brain in general. We all have this incredibly powerful machine in our skulls making lots of decisions without us, and we know next to nothing about it! I was shocked that they don’t teach us about our brains in school. I became obsessed with how our primordial, reptilian brains sabotage our modern relationships.
