We would like to thank Adria for taking the time to sit down and talk to us.  1. So tell us, who is Adria Tennor? I’m an actress and a writer and a restaurant owner. I’m from the suburbs of Detroit, but moved to New York City for college, where I studied directing. As a directing student, I had to take all the classes that the actors had to take PLUS my directing classes. I actually really wanted to be an actor, but they’d asked me to stop in the middle of my audition monologue because I was so bad, and they talked to me about my directing that I had done in high school and that’s how I was accepte

Jon Hamm Has The Million Dollar Arm

Mad Men star Jon Hamm has become attached to play a sports agent in Million Dollar Arm , the drama based on the true story of how sports agent J.B. Bernstein discovered professional pitchers Rinku Singh and Dinesh Patel through a reality show he staged in India with cricket players. Mayhem Pictures’ Mark Ciardi and Gordon Gray are producing with Joe Roth and Palak Patel of Roth Films. Thomas McCarthy wrote the script and the plan is to shoot in the fall. Bernstein repped top talent, but was burnt out and disillusioned until he watched the cricket game on late night TV and noticed how similar the game’s throwing motion was to that of baseball pitchers. He headed to India and wound up hatching the reality show Million Dollar Arm and auditioning 40,000 hopefuls. He brought back the two 19-year old finalists to the U.S., but it wasn’t as simple as signing with a ball club and heading to the minor leagues. Neither player had ever ventured beyond their rural village and Bernstein ha

Christina Hendricks Is The Bomb

Christina Hendricks , the actress who gives the TV drama Mad Men a lot of its heat, is growing fonder of the Sixties. Hendricks , who plays Joan Holloway, the no-nonsense head of office operations in the Sixties-set TV show, is in talks to appear in Sally Potter’s anti-nuclear movie, Bomb , which is also based in that decade. The picture focuses on two teenage rebels, played by Elle Fanning and Alice Englart , who become involved in the Ban the Bomb movement and the sexual revolution. Potter and producer Christopher Sheppard plan to shoot the film in February in London and on the South-East coast. Alessandro Nivola has also been cast in Bomb, and Annette Bening is considering a part in the film. Hendricks’s Jessica Rabbit meets Marilyn Monroe hour-glass figure caught audiences’ attention when Mad Men took off. Please Leave A Comment- Source- dailymail
