The show is a murder mystery that centers on San Francisco PD homicide detectives Terry Seagrave (Taye Diggs) and Hildy Mulligan (Kathleen Robertson), as they take on a case that seems more like a maze.

It looks like Tom’s “From The Rough” is finally going to be released! For those who don’t remember, Tom worked on the production back in 2010, and we’ve been announcing its release since 2011, but it keeps getting posponed. A recent article posted by Indiewire suggests that the film is going to come out in 2014, after all. Read it below:

The film was shown at some film festivals and awards events in 2011, and, in its current version, is being prepared for theatrical release in 2014. Its Ardmore screening will be the first time it is seen in the Philadelphia area, Critelli said. Its next showing here will be in July, during the National Urban League conference, hosted by the Urban League of Philadelphia. Critelli said the current version runs 92 minutes, trimming about 25 minutes, and focuses even more clearly on the coach’s character and “her transformation as a leader and mentor to young people.”

After eight successful movies in the 10-year production of the “Harry Potter” franchise, the child stars in the legendary series are definitely all grown up. As they continue building their film portfolios as young adults, it is crucial to make the right choices on how to expand their acting resumes.

In the case of Tom Felton, more familiar as the cowardly bully and manipulative Draco Malfoy, Harry Potter’s schoolboy rival from his Hogwarts batch, his effectively antagonistic persona on screen is not easy to forget. But even though most of his roles after the “Harry Potter” flicks still feature him as a bad guy, he attempts to widen his performance offerings in projects like “Grace and Danger.” In this military drama, he plays the good guy.

From Bad to Good

As expected, Felton didn’t readily outgrow his villainous air after his “Harry Potter” days. A lot of projects kept him busy after it, but most of them still banked on his trademark character’s mischief, arrogance, and sinisterly aura. In “Rise of the Planet of the Apes,” he was a sadistic animal handler tormenting innocent primates. In the upcoming dramatic thriller “Therese,” he portrays a sickly husband who eventually turned into a vengeful ghost to haunt his wife and her lover. In the upcoming sexual thriller “Attachment,” he stars as a student-turned-stalker whose one-night stand with his teacher triggered his psycho behavior. Many other projects continue to promote him in wicked and ghastly roles — most of which are movies in the thriller, horror, and period genres.

“Grace and Danger,” which is currently in pre-production, sees him on a different light. This time, he is the one who tries to stop the bad guy from doing the wrong thing.

Tom Felton as Carnaby

“Grace and Danger” is a WWII film set in France. The story revolves around a group of allied soldiers who rescue a young woman from a village massacre. Although they are supposed to escort her to safety, some soldiers find themselves tempted by carnal desire. This story arc persists, while these servicemen move on with their perilous journey that eventually turns into a savage battle for survival.

This gritty war drama by Rhys Hayward features Felton as Carnaby, an American soldier who attempts to protect the rescued woman from his fellow soldiers’ sexual impulses. More a gentleman than the usual baddie, this role helps him reach the two sides of the spectrum when it comes to the onscreen figures he can play on screen.

A Prequel Comic Book

The production is set to come out with a prequel comic book. This project aims to provide a solid background for the story, the dynamics of the characters, the events depicted in the narrative, and the overall look and treatment intended for the film. Some images released from the comic book, which is provisionally titled “Cool Blood Kill,” showcase Tom Felton’s dutiful character as Carnaby.

According to the website ContactMusic, Tom has lightened the mood during the final days of shooting new movie Ghosts Of The Pacific by pulling sneaky pranks on his co-stars.

The Harry Potter actor is preparing to wrap production on the upcoming adventure film, and has spent his breaks goofing around on set – much to the dismay of his fellow castmates.

He took to his Twitter.com page on Thursday (09May13) to post photos of the carnage, which began when actor Jake Abel managed to squeeze a bicycle into the cramped seat of Felton’s golf cart.

The Brit tweeted, “Last days filming on Ghosts (of the) Pacific. May the pranks begin. Firstly Jake Abel thought it amusing to modify my buggy… So I thought I’d return fire with some improvements of my own, to his buggy of course. Happy driving Jake.”

Felton posted a photo of Abel’s electric cart decorated in blue tape, and the duo then teamed up to terrorise co-star Garret Dillahunt by covering his bike in toilet paper.

Felton adds, “Jake thought it wise to install some improvements to Garrett Dillahunt’s fold up bicycle. I agreed…”

The Youtube Channel Biggest Fan has uploaded a video in which we can see Tom and Jade walking with their dog, Timber. Another video from the same day was posted back on March 25 and you can watch it here.
