Check out these first two photos of Tricia Helfer sporting a whole new look for her mysterious role as Izzy Rogers in the upcoming Season 7 finale of CBS’ Criminal Minds. The photos were taken on the set of the show earlier this week (and the hair is a wig). Looks terrific!

The two-hour season finale of Criminal Minds airs May 16 on CBS.

Couple of new things on Scent of the Missing today. To begin with we have two new behind-the-scenes images from the pilot, for which filming wrapped in Hammond, Louisiana some two weeks ago. Now all that remains is for us to hope TNT has the good sense to pick the show up. Fingers crossed!

Meanwhile, Summer Glau Wiki has landed an exclusive interview with the author of the Scent of the Missing book and the show’s consulting producer, Susannah Charleson. An excerpt from the interview:

3) Are the characters and her dog already a working pair on the pilot or do we see the training to become an SAR dog as in your book?
Susannah Charleson: All the characters in the pilot are already certified, working teams.

4) Tricia’s Helfer character name as well as her dog’s name has been changed, respectively from Susannah to Ally/Allison and from Puzzle to Rocket. Could you tell us more?
Susannah Charleson: Changes were always likely due to legal reasons. Puzzle and I are still a working team in reality, and it’s wise to make sure viewers know the difference between the fictional situations in the drama and the real team working current events in the field, as well as the real flight instructor! As to names, Rocket is, coincidentally, a fun variation on a nickname I had for Puzzle when she was little. She was my “pocket rocket” when she was first training — she will even come to that, when called, so it doesn’t feel like so huge a change to me when I hear it said on the set. I like the name Allison very much. I always thought Susannah would change from the moment we discussed “Sedona” back in June. Sedona and Susannah are just too similar for audiences! And Ally is a great choice — feminine, but strong and confident at the same time.

5) As a member of a canine search-and-rescue team and Consulting Producer on set, does the pilot fulfill your expectations so far? What’s your opinion about the cast and their work so far?
Susannah Charleson: Having worked real situations from which the pilot draws its center, I can say that the production does get right at the heart of the search, both in urgency and in peril. The pilot definitely doesn’t make the work look any easier or the solutions to real problems too pat. And I think the actors had to push, push, push through some of it. This wasn’t a comfortable shoot for really any of them.

Check out the full interview on Summer Glau Wiki.

Another two new pictures from Tricia from the set of Scent of the Missing in Hamilton today, one with co-star Eric Winter (The Mentalist, Brothers & Sisters, Days of Our Lives). See them in our gallery here.

It also looks like some of the characters have gotten new names. Most notably, Tricia’s own character Susannah is now “Ally” and her canine companion, previously called Puzzle, is now “Rocket”. Via Twitter:

@chrisdvanne Actually, it’s now Tricia (Ally) & Jackson/Oggie/Langely (Rocket), @EricWinter1 (Jake) & Bolt/Louis (Smokey).

Tricia has uploaded a new pic from the Toronto set of The Firm via her official Twitter account @trutriciahelfer, this time with her Firm co-star Callum Keith Rennie. As most of you will remember, Tricia and Callum co-starred for several years on Battlestar Galactica as Cylons Number Six and Two respectively. Will be great to see them join forces again on screen!

The Internet Movie Database has also updated Tricia’s filmography with The Firm, and if their information is correct, Tricia will be appearing in all 22 episodes of the season. That’s a major recurring role!

The Firm will premiere this winter on NBC.

Tricia also appears briefly in this clip about the making of the game. She comes in for a brief glimpse at about 6:40.

Just a couple of things today, mostly via Tricia’s official Twitter account @trutriciahelfer.

First off, we have a couple of gorgeous new pictures of Tricia on the set of The Black Keys‘ music video “Howlin’ For You” with director Chris Marrs Piliero and co-stars Diora Baird and Shaun White. Voting for Best Rock Video at the MTV Video Music Awards, for which the video is nominated, has now closed and the winners will be announced at the VMAs next week’s Sunday. Hope you got your vote in on time!

Meanwhile, Tricia’s friend and hairstylist Brian Magallones tweeted a terrific picture of him and Tricia on the set of a commercial for the “Space Marine” video game, presumably Warhammer 40000: Space Marine, which is coming out in the U.S. and Europe in early September. We don’t know that Tricia is in any way involved in the video game itself, but this does mean she’ll likely appear in a commercial/TV spot for the game soon.

Last but not least, Tricia has lent her voice to the character of Olivia Johansen in “Cassie”, a script developed by Randy Girdner on Amazon Studios. Check out the project page for the script for a 23-minute audio clip of Tricia reading her lines in studio by herself (it’s great!).

That’s all, folks!

Hey guys! As you can see, we’re back after a couple of days’ downtime. After three great years with Our Fandom, we’ve now moved to a new home at Flaunt.nu. Many thanks to both for hosting us then and now respectively! :) Hopefully, you’ll find everything on the site is still intact.

And then for the obvious — we have a new design up. It’s a bit on the larger side than usual, but we really wanted to try something different and eye-catching. In case you’re wondering, the main picture originates from Tricia’s 2008 feature in L.A. Confidential magazine, while the stunning original background texture is from Fractured-Simplicity.net. We’re still ironing out a few kinks in the new look but it should work well enough in most browsers. Hope you like it!

Finally, a tiny bit of Tricia news. In case you’re wondering what she’s been doing for the past few days, since wrapping up Mistletoe Over Manhattan some two weeks ago, Tricia’s started working on her voice role as EDI in the upcoming Mass Effect 3 video game. A couple of images from the recording studio have been uploaded to the gallery.

Anyway, that’s all for this update. Happy browsing!
