Alan Cumming

 

Today I received a response from Eli Gold (of The Good Wife) himself, actor Alan Cumming. Alan is currently starring in the Broadway production of Macbeth, and has received nothing but rave reviews across the board. I have been a huge fan of Alan's work since the days of Goldeneye
(as Boris Grishenko - "I am invincible!"), Annie (as Rooster in the Kathy Bates revival) and
X2: X-Men United (as Nightcrawler, who was totally underutilized in the film), but his recurring role as Eli Gold on The Good Wife has to be my absolute favorite. I cannot wait for the new season to begin in the fall! Stay tuned!

Thomas Nicholas (again!)

Last night, I met actor Thomas (Ian) Nicholas at a local bar in the area. Thomas played Kevin Myers in all four American Pie movies and was awesome in person. I arrived before he was scheduled to play with his band, and was surprised to see him casually hanging out in the venue. I asked him for a photo op and if he would sign my American Reunion 8x10". I mentioned how I had no aspirations to add any other signatures to the cast photo, and that he could take as much space as he wanted. You'll see his in person (IP) signature matches his through the mail (TTM) signature quite nicely. He thanked us for coming out and was a genuinely kind guy. Plus, I was so excited he performed Matt Nathanson's "Laid" (which his band covered for the American Reunion soundtrack). Night made. Happy 4th, indeed!
