Another movie clip update today, albeit a small one this time. The media archive has today been updated with one site-exclusive video clip of Tricia Helfer’s brief appearance as Sasha in the Adam Green and Joel Moore-directed drama thriller Spiral (2007), also starring Amber Tamblyn, Zachary Levi and Joel Moore. Tricia makes a small but memorable appearance in one of the film’s scenes with Moore and Levi, the latter with whom Tricia also co-starred in her Chuck guest episode last March. Check it out!

More movie clips! Today, we’ve updated our media archive with 15 site-exclusive video clips of Tricia Helfer as Stephanie Jacobs in Memory (aka. Mem-o-re), the Bennett Davlin-directed horror thriller co-starring Billy Zane, Dennis Hopper and Ann-Margret.

While the movie itself isn’t one of our favorites, Tricia delivers an excellent and genuine performance which is definitely worth a watch. Please note that the video lags slightly behind the audio in these clips; unfortunately, this couldn’t be mended in the conversion process. Anyway, do check out the clips when you can!

Surprise! With news on Tricia having slowed down for the time being, we’ll instead be updating the site with new material in the coming weeks, material that we confess we’ve been sitting on for some time now.

Today, we have prepared a big media update for you on Walk All Over Me, the 2007 Canadian indie crime dramedy from writer-director Robert Cuffley starring Tricia Helfer as Celene opposite Leelee Sobieski, Michael Adamthwaite and Lothaire Bluteau. While the photo gallery has been updated with 1189 DVD screen captures of Tricia’s performance, thus replacing our earlier medium-res caps from the movie, the media archive has been updated with 16 site-exclusive video clips of Tricia in the film, all of which we hope you’ll enjoy browsing through! Personally, Walk All Over Me is my favorite of Tricia’s films, and her thrilling performance is definitely worth a watch.

Last week, we reported Tricia Helfer is currently in Canada filming another role for a new movie, Phase One, as confirmed by Tricia’s official site. Although little additional information on the project was available at the time, we now have some additional details on the film, thanks to this article from Sudbury Local News.

According to the source, Phase One is an indie thriller directed by Eric Wostenberg about drug testing on humans, and co-stars Eric Roberts, Travis Van Winkle and Tamara Feldman. Filming is currently ongoing in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. More from Sudbury Local News:

Phase One, a Hollywood production being filmed at various locations around Sudbury, could be the first of many other movies that could provide jobs, support local business and give the city a creative edge. [...]

The film — a thriller about a human drug test gone awry — is being shot by Sudbury native, Brandon Nutt. His company, Nutthouse Moving Pictures Company, will receive the funding through the Northern Ontario Heritage Fund Corporation (NOHFC). The announcement was made at the Cambrian Arena, one of the locations which is being used for filming the movie. [...]

Phase One producers include Chris Chesser (The Rundown, Major League), Karen Glasser (The Rundown, The Ten Commandments) and David Ward. Actors, direct from Hollywood, include Tricia Helfer (Battlestar Galatica), Eric Roberts (The Dark Knight), Tamara Feldman (Gossip Girl) and Travis Van Winkle (Transformers, Friday the 13th). Eric Wostenberg is directing the movie. [...]

Filming has already taken place at the Willet Green Miller Centre on Ramsey Lake Road. Sudbury doubles as Colorado in the film. [...] Hollywood actor Travis Van Winkle, 27, originally from Atlanta, Ga., was on set in the Willet Green Miller Centre building. The actor plays Greg, a university student. He said he enjoyed working on this independent Hollywood film. “Independents are less tightly run. They are more fun.” He said times are tougher in Hollywood now, but there is work to be found in independent films, like Phase One.

As of yet, the film lacks a page on the Internet Movie Database-website, however we’ll keep you posted if and when one appears on the site.

Tricia Helfer’s official site reports Tricia has wrapped filming for Jonathan Sobol’s A Beginner’s Guide to Endings in Niagara Falls, NY, and is now filming a new movie — Phase One — in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. Although the Internet Movie Database has nothing on the project yet, according to Tricia’s official site, Phase One will also star Eric Roberts and Travis Van Winkle. We’ll be sure to post an update on the movie(?) once we have more details!

Screen Daily reports actor Harvey Keitel will be replacing Dennis Hopper in Jonathan Sobol’s A Beginner’s Guide to Endings, currently filming with Tricia Helfer et al. in Niagara Falls, NY. The casting update follows the earlier news that Hopper has been diagnosed with prostate cancer. From Screen Daily:

Keitel will play Duke, the hard-living, gambling family patriarch. Paulo Costanzo and Jason Jones have also joined the cast as two of the sons.

“This cast is beyond my wildest hopes for a first-time director,” Sobol said. “When I wrote the script I dreamt of actors of this calibre playing these roles but I don’t think I ever actually thought I’d have the opportunity to work with them.”

We have an update on A Beginner’s Guide to Endings, some of which is good, some not.

To begin with, The Niagara Falls Review reports Tricia Helfer et al. will begin shooting the film in the Niagara Falls region next week, and filming will be ongoing for the next four weeks. According to the website, the production team is looking for extras for a boxing sequence filming next Tuesday; check out the article for details and how to participate.

In much less positive news, Endings actor Dennis Hopper is reportedly battling prostate cancer. According to ImNotObsessed.com, the actor has cancelled all his travel plans in order to focus on his treatment schedule. His continued involvement in the film remains therefore uncertain.

Tricia Helfer Fan wishes Hopper the speediest possible recovery; we were very surprised and sorry to hear about the illness and wish him all the best.

The Hollywood Reporter (a generally reliable source for movie news) reports Tricia Helfer will be starring opposite Dennis Hopper, Scott Caan and J.K. Simmons in A Beginner’s Guide to Endings, the silver screen debut of writer-director Jonathan Sobol. From The Hollywood Reporter:

Dennis Hopper, Scott Caan, Tricia Helfer and J.K. Simmons are boarding A Beginner’s Guide to Endings, a dark comedy written and directed by newcomer Jonathan Sobol.

Endings centers on three brothers who, upon learning they only have a few days left to live, set off to reverse a lifetime of mistakes. Hopper and Simmons are playing the brothers’ father and uncle, respectively, while Caan is one of the brothers. Helfer is Caan’s girlfriend, a woman with a dangerous past.

Shooting is due to start the last week of October in Niagara Falls, N.Y. Sobol hails from the region, and Endings is something of an homage to his hometown.

Sounds intriguing, no? Congratulations on the exciting new project, Tricia!

Unfortunately, according to an article from ToonZone.net, Tricia Helfer will not be attending any of the events at the ongoing San Diego Comic Con in California due to scheduling conflicts. According to Helfer, she is currently filming in Bulgaria and unable to attend:

Timm then ran a video introduction from actress, Tricia Helfer, who portrays Boodika in the movie to address the fans. Helfer apologized to the fans for not being there since she was filming in Bulgaria. But she said she’s actually in the audience in costume as Green Lantern, so fans should stop looking. The joke which wasn’t all that great fell flat on the audience, but hey, appreciate the attempt I suppose.

Sorry! Bulgaria sounds exciting, though. Wonder what she’s filming there?…
