Good Morning, World

.

I have no idea what that shot of Thomas Kretschmann is from so don't ask. But I did photo-shop out a lady who was standing beside him because she was distracting me, in case you think you know the shot but are confused by the lack of lady.

Somehow I'd completely forgotten that Thomas Kretschmann is going to be in Hostel Part III. This one's got nothing to do with Eli Roth and is going direct to DVD, so who knows what to expect (actually we should know enough to expect crap, but I can be a deranged optimist sometimes). It's set in Vegas and is about a bachelor party going "horribly wrong," which well it wouldn't be a Hostel movie if everything went peachy keen now would it? It also stars pretty Kip Pardue so if it's got some homo-tension between Thomas and him we'll be just fine with whatever crap it is otherwise.


Anyway I'm not quite sure when that's out and I don't have any new information or pictures of trailers or anything from it and that isn't the point of this post. The point is that Thomas has landed a gig on an American TV show! Well a pilot, at least. It's for ABC and it's called The River, and it's not being called a horror show but it's coming from two talented horror directors - Oren Peli, who made Paranormal Activity, and Jaume Collet-Serra, who directed the House of Wax remake and Orphan. It's about a woman whose husband goes missing in the Amazon and is convinced by her son to go looking for him. Thomas isn't the missing husband (that's Bruce Greenwood) and he isn't the son obviously (that's the very pretty Joe Anderson, who you can see plenty of right here), so I guess he must be somebody this lady meets on her travels. Anyway Tom and Joe Anderson? Aryan overload!
