Grown Up Movie Star tells the story of disgraced NHL star Ray (Doyle) and his precocious daughters Ruby (Maslany) and Rose (Julia Kennedy). Once the town hero, Ray has returned home to Newfoundland from the US following a drug conviction, only to have his wife Lillian leave him for another man and aspirations of stardom. With Lillian gone, Ray flails from woman to woman trying to find a replacement for her, while struggling against a growing awareness of his homosexuality. At loose ends for lack of guidance, Ruby in turn is becoming increasingly curious about her own sexuality and, in a desperate plea for attention, putting herself in increasingly risky situations. She begins spending more and more time with Ray’s best friend Stuart, confined to a wheelchair following an accident that involved Ray. When Stuart finds himself attracted to Ruby, he leads the three of them towards a heartbreaking conclusion.

  • Csas '21: Schitt's Creek, Cardinal and Trickster
    CSAs ’21: Schitt’s Creek, Cardinal and Trickster lead TV noms Schitt's Creek and Cardinal are up for Best Comedy Series and Best Drama Series, respectively, while Trickster earned seven performance nods. The final season of Schitt’s Creek has led nominations for the Canadian Screen Awards for the second year in a row, followed by the dramas Cardinal and Trickster. Emmy and Golden Globe winner Schitt’s Creek (Not a Real Company Productions) earned 21 nominations total for the year – coming under its record-breaking haul in 2020 – including Best Comedy Series where it will compete against Baroness Von Sketch Show (Frantic Films), Kim’s Convenience (Thunderbird Entertainment), Letterkenny (New Metric Media) and Workin’ Moms (Wolf + Rabbit Entertainment). CTV’s Cardinal (Sienna Films, eOne) and CBC’s Trickster (Sienna Films) tied for the second-most nominations coming in at 15, with Cardinal up for Best Drama Series alongside Burden of Truth (ICF Films, Eagle Vision, eOne), Departure (Shaftesbury), Transplant (Sphere Media) and Vikings (Take 5 Productions). Trickster was not nominated in the Best Drama Series category, but it received seven nominations for its performers along with additional nods in the craft categories. One thing the top-nominated series do have in common is all of them ended in 2020 – Schitt’s Creek and Cardinal ended their multi-season runs and Trickster was cancelled by CBC ahead of planned season two after the Indigenous identity of showrunner Michelle Latimer was called into question. On the unscripted side, the most-nominated reality or competition series is Canada’s Drag Race (Blue Ant Studios) with seven total, including Best Reality/Competition Program or Series.
