FUTURE FOX

Our hard-working cast and crews are busy today. Here’s just a mere sampling of what is going on Tuesday, August 5th in the FOX world:

• Joss Whedon is directing Dollhouse on location in a hangar.
• The Virtuality first episode is humming along. Right now, they’re in an “airlock” set.
• Practically the entire cast of Prison Break is in scenes today.
• 24 is filming in the White House set.
• Terminator is on location at a house standing in for the Connors’.
• Do Not Disturb is taping on the lot.
• Sit Down, Shut Up has a table read with its very funny cast.

We’re churning out quality television for you lovely people!

Technically, it’s a spin-off of this very own Future on Fox site. Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles has its own behind-the-scenes blog, and you need to visit it now.

iF Magazine gets the download on Season 2:

(Executive Producer Josh Friedman) also notes that the series will be coming more self-contained vs. serialized like a bulk of Season One was. There will still be an overriding arc, but there will now be more closed-ended episodes as well.

Other info revealed is director David Nutter (who helmed last year’s pilot episode) returns for the Season Two premiere (something he rarely does for series he starts off), Cromartie (Garret Dillahunt) returns and the theme will be •œevolution• according to Friedman.

After Ellen on Cameron’s arc:

•¦afterward I joined a group of reporters who mobbed Summer Glau, and she leaked a few more details about the next season. “I can tell you relationships do change this season,” she said. “I can’t say how, but everything is changing. … [Cameron]’s growing quite a bit, I think people are going to be surprised.”

TV Squad on John Connor:

Thomas Dekker told the critics to expect his character, John Connor, to be a little less of a weak kid this year. “He was able, but didn’t have blood in him to be a leader,” he said. “The plan was to keep him young, have long hair, go to school and be normal, his essence of youth and innocence still there. A lot of that dies at the beginning of this season. (The writers are) trying to do it subtly in the script.”

The TV Addict on SCC vs. the next film:

James Middleton was asked about the challenges about working on the Terminator TV show, and the new Christian Bale Terminator movie coming out next May, and said that they both take •œcues• from the original films, but that they take the original idea and go in two different directions. Each franchise is meant to live alone, and they•re buffeted by the idea that •œfate is what you make it• - i.e. these could be different alternate realities for the different characters from Terminator.

TV Guide gets Brian Austin Green to dig into what’s coming up in season two of T:SCC, his past on that other infamous FOX series, and his rowdy personal zoo (including his potbellied pig!).

Turns out the Saturn Awards were overrun with Terminators last week!

Not only did collider.com get an exclusive with trophy gal Summer
Glau, they got the Cromartie himself, Garret Dillahunt, to open up
about his geeky side.

E! has got the goods, specifically dish on the new season of T:SCC. We don’t want to ruin too much (so be forewarned if you’re looking to stay clear of spoilers!), but they managed to pry some snazzy details about what’s coming up for Cameron and the Connors.

Check out what Summer, Thomas, Garret, and creator Josh Friedman had to say over at Watch With Kristin.
