Thanks to the Chesler/Perlmutter Twitter page, we have more information on Tricia Helfer’s “mystery” movie shoot.
According to C/P, Tricia is currently in Toronto, Canada to film Christmas Share, a Christmas TV movie for The Hallmark Channel. The film has yet to get an IMDb page, so not a lot of information is available on it at the moment, but according to the OMDC website, the film will be directed by Harvey Crossland. Filming is scheduled to go on until May 24th.
More details as we find them! :)

Update May 14: According to the Twitter pages of Tricia and Lategan Media respectively, Canadian actor Mark Lutz (Angel, Flashpoint, Ghost Whisperer: The Other Side) and American country music singer JT Hodges also star in the film. Check out also a couple of photos from the set in our gallery, courtesy of Tricia.

Epic news!! According to TV Line, Tricia Helfer’s Battlestar Galactica co-star Michael Trucco will be joining Tricia in the upcoming ABC pilot Killer Women.
ABC’s Killer Women will host a killer Battlestar Galactica reunion, now that Michael Trucco has boarded the Tricia Helfer-fronted drama pilot.
Based on the Argentine series Mujeres Asesinas, the project follows Molly Parker (Helfer), the only woman among the notoriously male Texas Rangers. Described as a ballsy, beautiful badass, Molly knows how to get to the truth and isn’t afraid to ruffle a few feathers to do so.
Trucco will play Molly’s older brother, Billy, who is married to her BFF Nessa (played by Marta Milans). The actor’s recent TV credits include arcs on Revenge, How I Met Your Mother and Castle, and a co-starring role on USA Network’s Fairly Legal.
Also new to the Killer Women ensemble, which also previously cast Mark Blucas (Necessary Roughness), is Alex Fernandez (Commander in Chief), playing Molly’s coworker Luis.
The pilot begins filming next week’s Monday in Texas… and is getting more awesome by the minute. 8D

TV Line’s Michael Ausiello reports Tricia Helfer has nabbed the lead role in the upcoming ABC drama pilot Killer Women.
Former Battlestar Galactica badass Tricia Helfer has landed the lead in Killer Women, ABC’s drama pilot about the only female in the male-dominated Texas Ranger Division, TVLine has learned.
Based on the Argentine series Mujeres Asesinas, the project — which counts Modern Family‘s Sofia Vergara among its producers — finds Helfer playing Molly Parker, a beautiful and ballsy Ranger who knows how to get the truth and isn’t afraid to ruffle a few feathers on her way there.
Hannah Shakespeare (The Playboy Club) penned the script.
More information, of course, as we get it.
Super exciting!! :D Congratulations, Tricia!
Update Feb 21: More casting news from Ausiello! According to TV Line, Marc Blucas, who currently appears on USA Network’s Necessary Roughness, has been cast in the pilot in an as yet unspecified role as “Dan”. Details from The Hollywood Reporter:
Blucas will play Dan, an East Coast educated, dedicated DEA agent who’s personally reserved and highly noncommittal. He has an undeniable attraction to and physical relationship with Tricia Helfer’s Molly but like her, admits superficial is all he can handle. The duo will work together to solve open cases.
Blucas plays Matthew on USA Network’s Roughness, which this week aired its sophomore finale and was recently renewed for a shortened Season 3. He has also appeared on Castle, Body of Proof and Revenge. Buffy the Vampire Slayer fans will remember him as the Slayer’s first serious post-Angel boyfriend.
Update 2: The new stuff keeps coming in. The Hollywood Reporter has a more detailed description of Tricia’s character Molly, and also reports Casino Royale‘s Martin Campbell will be directing the pilot:

Just a quick update that director Roger Christian’s website at www.rogerchristian.ca confirms that Deadly Visions, the upcoming supernatural thriller starring Tricia Helfer, is a TV movie for Lifetime Network.
Christian is in Vancouver filming the Lifetime Network movie Deadly Visions with Producer Roma Roth.
Tricia also recently talked about shooting the film and her character Kate at the Humane Society To the Rescue! New York Gala:
I just shot a movie called Deadly Visions. We shot it just outside of Vancouver, Canada. It’s about a mother having nightmares and premonitions that her daughter’s in danger, and really trying to protect her daughter, her number one concern, but having people not believe her and so people start to think that she’s just losing it, and the fight to really believe in herself and believe that she’s, you know, experiencing something. [...] I really got lucky with the little girl Genea [who] played my daughter. Just a class act, spot on, really just technically amazing, some of the stuff that she had to do, and you just had to tell her once and she could get it. And sweet, and throughout an entire month of shooting not one complaint, that she was cold, that she was tired, nothing. It was a pleasure to work with her.
Deadly Visions also stars David Cubitt and Genea Charpentier.
Update: New information from Reel World Management. According to their website, the film has been completed and will be released sometime in 2013. The film also stars Dylan Neal (Blood Ties, Dawson’s Creek, Babylon 5) and Linda Sorensen (Class of 1984), and if you’ll recall the first promotional still from the film from a couple of weeks back, thanks to RWM we’ve now been able to identify the other woman as Estella Warren (Driven, Planet of the Apes, Kangaroo Jack).
Finally, here’s the full synopsis of the film via RWM (warning for spoilers):
Kate Aldrich (Tricia Helfer), a successful architect struggles to take the high road for the sake of their daughter Izzy, since her husband, Dan Beckman, left her for stay-at-home mom, Laura.
Kate who is suffering from an anxiety disorder since being forced to accept joint custody of her daughter, Izzy starts to have terrible visions that someone is going to hurt her daughter. Convinced that Izzy is in danger from her new stepmother, Kate believes the visions are not anxiety attacks but premonitions. As the visions become more intense, Kate confides in her former mother-in-law, Dorothy who still holds a soft spot for her.
Worried that Kate’s condition is worsening, Dorothy breaks Kate’s confidence and tells Dan about the visions. Under additional pressure from Laura, Dan uses the information to argue that Kate is unstable and seeks sole custody of Izzy. Kate is devastated by Dororthy’s betrayal and turns increasingly desperate as the visions intensify. Kate’s only ally is her attorney, Hugh Dinsmore, who reluctantly agrees to dig into Laura’s past to help Kate with the custody battle.
When Dorothy dies in a terrible accident and Kate discovers a secret from Laura’s past she decides to take Izzy across the border to start a new life. When she is caught, it appears her visions may only be the hysteria of a disgruntled ex-wife. And when Dan is attacked and left for dead and Izzy and Laura disappear the truth is finally revealed we realize that all may not be as we first thought.
The film also now has a Facebook-page at www.facebook.com/DeadlyVisions.

Dread Central reports Tricia Helfer is currently in talks to appear in Battlefield: Earth-director Roger Christian’s upcoming sci-fi horror/thriller Stranded. More from Dread Central:
It’s been a long, long time since last we heard anything from Battlefield: Earth director Roger Christian (who’s now in post on 13 Eerie), but he’s back with a new project in orbit. Read on!
ShadowLocked recently caught up with Christian, who revealed the following about his next project, Stranded, which follows four isolated astronauts on board a bio-dome spacecraft who experience a ghostly intercession after a meteor storm, leading to paranoia, fear and death.
“[It's] quite scary. We don’t have a creature,” he explains. “Our alien entity, which it is, is born on board. This woman gets pregnant and gives birth in a few days. It’s one of those weird things that happens very fast. The thing that’s on board imitates one of the crew members and takes him over… Our familiar character becomes the monster.”
Amanda Crew, Kevin Dillon, Michael Ironside, Tricia Helfer, Nick Stahl, Brendan Fletcher, Peter Facinelli, and Luke Goss are all in talks to join the cast.
As always, we’ll keep you posted on the developments.

According to Deadline and several other newsblogs, Summer Glau (Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Firefly, Serenity), Eric Winter (The Mentalist, Brothers & Sisters, Days of Our Lives) and Daryl Mitchell (Brothers, Veronica’s Closet) have joined the cast of the upcoming TNT pilot Scent of the Missing. According to the site, production is scheduled for late November. More from Deadline.com:
TNT’s Scent Of The Missing, executive produced by co-writers Carol Mendelsohn, Melissa R. Byer & Treena Hancock and Barry Josephson, centers on Susannah (Tricia Helfer), a tenacious, strong-willed K-9 Search and Rescue volunteer who works with an equally determined partner — her mischievous golden retriever, Puzzle. Glau, repped by UTA and the Schiff Co., will play a new member of the K-9 Search and Rescue team who is beautiful and very wealthy but much tougher than she looks. UTA-repped Mitchell will play a wheelchair-bound former military sergeant who serves as the communications technician for the team. Production on the pilot, based on the book by Susannah Charleson, is slated to begin in late November.
Update Nov 4: Deadline reports that the canines have now also been cast. Check out the dogs of the show on Deadline.com. :)
