One of the highlights of Jesse Malin’s quarantined livestream series, The Fine Art of Self-Distancing, has been his cover of Tom Petty’s “Crawling Back to You,” a track off of Petty’s 1994 LP, Wildflowers. Malin saw Petty perform the song at the Hollywood Bowl in 2017 — at what would be Petty’s final show.
“I’d seen him before, but this was like magic,” Malin told Rolling Stone during an interview for his latest album, Sunset Kids. “That night under the stars at the Hollywood Bowl, he went into ‘Crawling Back to You,...

One of the high points of Jesse Malin’s latest album Sunset Kids is his duet with Lucinda Williams, “Dead On.” Williams produced the album with her husband-manager Tom Overby and lends her harmonies and songwriting to a number of tracks, but it’s “Dead On” that stands as the LP’s proper duet.
A gritty, scuzzed-up guitar number, it’s reflective of the vibe on Williams’ own upcoming album, Good Souls Better Angels, out Friday. “Recording ‘Dead On’ with Lucinda was one of the funnest and loosest parts of making the Sunset Kids album,...

Jesse Malin was supposed to be onstage at the U.K.’s massive Glastonbury festival this year. Instead, he’s doing solo shows every Saturday in his East Village apartment, trying to raise money for his band and crew whose incomes have taken a beating by the coronavirus pandemic. For the meantime, he’s doing Ok himself — his last album, Sunset Kids, was well-received and earned him a busy year of live dates and radio play. But he’s coming to terms with the reality that he may soon be...

How a low budget British horror film came to life - even when its Kickstarter campaign floundered...
There's a good chance that if you're reading this, you've thought about making your first film. And with digital equipment becoming cheaper and crowdfunding, it's never been easier. But producer Chris Nials and screenwriter/director Andrew Flynn's dark comedy Early Bird nearly had its wings clipped by failing to reach its funding target on Kickstarter.
However, rather than throw in the towel, Chris and Andrew went ahead with the filming. "In hindsight, it was actually quite liberating for both of us, largely because we were both so exhausted by the end of the campaign. The failure afforded us an opportunity to take a long hard look at the project and ourselves, and having done so, we became more determined than ever and agreed to push on” recalls Andrew.
Early Bird is Chris and Andrew's debut feature,...

Whedonverse fans are sure to flock to writer/director/producer Anton King’s new rom-com Lust for Love, which reunites quite a few Dollhouse alumni, including actors Fran Kranz and Dichen Lachman. Kranz leads the cast as Astor, a lovable yet hopeless guy who ruins his chance at a happily ever after with his childhood crush, Mila (Tron Legacy’s Beau Garrett). Convinced that the reason he’s so unlucky in love is because of his lack of experience with women, Astor enlists the help of Mila’s ex-best friend, Cali (Lachman), to teach him a thing or two about wooing the opposite sex.

The world is no stranger to individuals of the “Whedonverse” — a.k.a., those who have starred in movies or television shows helmed by the legendary Joss Whedon and his team (Maurissa Tancharoen and Jed Whedon). And if you’ve been missing a few of your favorite familiar faces, despair no more! Lust for Love, a new romantic comedy directed, written, and produced by Anton King, reunites a number of Whedonverse actors with a cast that includes Dollhouse favorites Fran Kranz and Dichen Lachman, as well as Beau Garrett (Tron Legacy), Caitlin Stasey (Reign, I, Frankenstein), and Felicia Day (Supernatural,...

Though she’s been a member of the Whedon clan for several years, Maurissa Tancharoen Whedon never ceases to marvel (no pun intended) at her brother-in-law Joss and his many talents. “It’s sort of like, can you stop being good at all things? Because it’s kind of hard for the rest of us,” she says.
But Maurissa Whedon is no slouch herself. She’s a writer, producer, actress, and singer – and one half of the team in charge of bringing S.H.I.E.L.D. to your TV (the other half is her husband Jed).
“I’ve always dipped my finger in so many things,” says Whedon. And though she’s understandably mum regarding the one super-huge thing she’s currently involved with, she’s happy to talk about her other recent and future projects. And there are many.
There’s the album “This Girl” which she and Jed released this summer.

Members of the Whedonverse tend to become close friends, working together time and time again. That was certainly the case in the secret Shakespearean adaptation Much Ado About Nothing, shot in Joss Whedon's backyard last summer, and it's once again the case in Lust for Love, a rom-com that stars many of the stars of his Fox drama Dollhouse. The film features Fran Kranz -- seen most recently in Cabin in the Woods and on Broadway in Death of a Salesman -- as an unlucky in love guy who finally wins over the love of his life, played by Beau Garrett.

Here are a few interesting and/or noteworthy projects that were recently added to IMDbPro's database of development titles:
Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego? – With the well of '80s reboots running dry, it's time to usher in a '90s revival. J.Lo's leading the pack with her Nuyorican Productions, updating this forgotten kids gem about a fictional detective agency's attempts to thwart and capture a rogue agent. We only wish original star Lynne Thigpen was still around to dispatch the sleuths.
Knight of Cups – For a filmmaker who spent nearly two decades between releasing films, Terrence Malick seems to be making up for lost time. The director's embarking on a pair of films since wrapping up this year's Tree of Life, bringing his total of current active projects to four -- this one starring Christian Bale and Cate Blanchett and another film called Lawless featuring the duo along side Ryan Gosling and Rooney Mara.
Tammy – Newly minted Emmy winner and Bridesmaids scene-stealer Melissa McCarthy wrote this road comedy about a directionless woman and her hard-drinking granny, which has been picked up for development at New Line.
Playdate – Actress-turned-filmmaker Tara Subkoff directs this indie flick starring Radha Mitchell and Natasha Lyonne. Filming is expected to get underway soon.
Lust for Love – Dollhouse alums Felicia Day, Dichen Lachman, Fran Kranz, Enver Gjokaj and Maurissa Tancharoen are teaming up with Australian writer-director Anton King to star in this independent romcom about an innocent guy's efforts to woo women.
