From Tvguide.com David BoreanazDavid Boreanaz Keeps Angel AliveBy Michael Ausiello Wednesday 18 August 2004, by Webmaster Rumors that David Boreanaz is not up for an Angel movie are utterly bloodless. The ex-vamp is willing to take another turn at bat, but not on the tube. "It would have to be a theatrical release," he tells TV Guide Online. "I’m not into the movie-of-the-week [idea]." Last month at the Television Critics Association press tour, WB execs remained hopeful that Angel would someday be reborn into a series of small-screen flicks. But network chairman Garth Ancier conceded that it would take "a little coaxing" to get Boreanaz interested. "I know they wanted to do, like, six films," Boreanaz says, "It’s not that I’m against it; it just needs to be a bigger challenge. When you do something for five seasons, you want to continue to challenge yourself... go to another level with it rather than just doing the same thing you’ve been doing." With that in mind, Boreanaz recently shot the title role in the big-screen comedy Mr. Fix It. "It has a very ’80s romantic theme to it," he says. "I’m going to be doing some dancing, singing... it’s going to be a lot of fun." He’s also in talks to co-star in a high-profile franchise flick that he insists is not Superman. "It’s better," he teases, adding, "’Four’ would be the magic number - that’s all I’m going to say." (Our guess? It’s the in-the-works fourth Indiana Jones pic.) In the meantime, "I’m really having fun with leaving the show and doing roles that are, for me, expressing what I love to do," Boreanaz says. "[It’s great] not being tied down to a series for nine months out of the year. It really is refreshing to see myself going into another arena." From Star-ecentral.com : Boreanaz quashes Angel rumours David Boreanaz spoke to TV Guide, and quashed rumours that he’s not up for an Angel movie. The actor, however, sets things straight by saying that he’s not exactly keen on making telemovies. "It would have to be a theatrical release," he says. "I’m not into the movie-of-the-week [idea]." Apparently Warner Bros. execs were interested in bringing back Angel as small-screen flicks. "I know they wanted to do, like, six films," Boreanaz said, "It’s not that I’m against it; it just needs to be a bigger challenge. When you do something for five seasons, you want to continue to challenge yourself... go to another level with it rather than just doing the same thing you’ve been doing." With that laid to rest, Boreanaz will next be seen playing the title role in the comedy Mr. Fix It; and after that, he might turn up in a high-profile franchise film, which he insists is not Superman. Teasingly the hunky star said: "It’s better - ’Four’ would be the magic number - that’s all I’m going to say." Hmm, now would that ’four’ be fantastic, jurassic, or just plain Indy. Stay tuned, we promise we’ll keep you informed. From Comingsoon.net : David Boreanaz on Angel Movie & New Project TV Guide chatted with actor David Boreanaz who says the rumors he’s not up for an Angel movie are nonsense. He’s willing to go another round, but not on TV. "It would have to be a theatrical release," he says. "I’m not into the movie-of-the-week [idea]." WB execs said they were interested in doing TV films. "I know they wanted to do, like, six films," Boreanaz added, "It’s not that I’m against it; it just needs to be a bigger challenge. When you do something for five seasons, you want to continue to challenge yourself... go to another level with it rather than just doing the same thing you’ve been doing." Next up for Boreanaz is the comedy Mr. Fix It and he’s also signed up for another high-profile franchise film that he insists is not Superman. "It’s better," he teases, adding, "’Four’ would be the magic number - that’s all I’m going to say." He could mean Jurassic Park 4, Fantastic Four, or Indiana Jones 4. We’ll let you know when we find out more. 14 Forum messages |
