Eliza Dushku - JOSS AND ELIZA TO REUNITE FOR NEW FOX SHOW!!!!!!!! 
Tru Faith In Eliza says: Goodness sakes, I take a few days away from the board, and see what happens? Mass hysteria! :wink: Seriously, this is (to quote someone we all know), "wicked" good news!:2thumbsup: I just got done reading over 40 articles that hit my Google Alerts about this new show and I can tell you I'm very hopeful for this show. The part I love is Eliza takes Joss to lunch and ends up with him writing, Tim Minnear involved, and her as a producer: "Shortly after she signed a development deal with Fox in August, "I called the one man that I knew I wanted to do with and had to have to have the best show possible" and invited him to lunch, she says. "And he was seduced!" Dushku said of her role: "She's fierce and she's hot, but she's also so complex, and she's going to be so tripped out because she's in this world, which I can identify with, where there are people who can click a button and succeed in making you be what they want you to be. It's this whole mind trip of objectification.
"It's going to have sex and heartbreak and violence and hilarity. That, to me, is a hot show." She also spoke of her joy to work with Whedon again, adding: "I've always said from the Buffy days, 'I'll follow that guy anywhere'. I just had to find him and pluck him out of his supposed retirement from television."
Actually, hypnotized, Whedon counters. "Eliza was wearing a hat with a big spiraling wheel on it, and she kept saying, 'Look into the wheel. You want to make television. You want it to be about me….' It sounds hokey, but it really worked." Whedon ranks the character as one of his best, saying "she's absolutely the essence of strength boiled down. She's at her strongest when she's at her least powerful. She has an extraordinary tenacity. " And the other line I liked is Eliza's description of her character:
"I even love my character's name, Echo. And I'm starting my training, so I can get into that 'Dark Angel'-on-crack shape where I can do everything." Now, if only FOX isn't messing with our minds, this could have a lot of potential, and coupled with the upcoming movie releases, could be great for Eliza's future. Here's a couple of decent images I found among the articles, they might be recent? Original post: JOSS AND ELIZA TO REUNITE FOR NEW FOX SHOW!!!!!!!! |
