Other Updates: ‘Bones’ heads over the pond to shoot Season Four premiere
June 17th, 2008

The Fox drama “Bones” is testing unfamiliar waters this week — well, at least, unfamiliar shores.

The series about partners Dr. Temperance Brennan (Emily Deschanel) and Special Agent Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz) began principal photography Saturday in London for this fall’s two-hour season premiere. It’s the first time the series has shot outside Southern California.

The Season Four opener, slated to air at 8 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 3 on Fox, has Brennan guest-lecturing at Oxford University and Booth speaking at Scotland Yard when they are asked by local officials to lend their expertise to a high-profile murder investigation involving a young British heiress.

The shooting schedule has the cast and crew in the U.K. for several weeks at locations that include Oxford, the Thames River, Tower Bridge, Lambeth Palace, official residence of the Archbishop of Canterbury, and throughout the streets of the city. The episode is also aptly titled “Yanks in the U.K.”

Emily, Other Updates: Emily Deschanel Just Wants To Have Fun
May 9th, 2008

As she does most every weekend, Bones star Emily Deschanel is spending her Sunday morning shopping at a Hollywood farmers’ market near her home.

A strict vegan, she has avoided all animal products for 15 years, ever since watching a documentary about the meat industry. Her lifestyle extends to avoiding leather clothing or consuming even honey because “sometimes,” she says, “they kill the bees.” As a result, she is forced to forgo many samples along the route.

But Deschanel’s icy character, forensic anthropologist Temperance “Bones” Brennan, has no problem interacting with freshly butchered bodies on the Fox crime drama. With two episodes remaining in the third season (Mondays, 8 p.m. ET/PT), Deschanel hints that viewers will soon learn the shocking identity of cannibalistic serial killer Gormogon’s apprentice.

She and her on-screen crime-solving partner, David Boreanaz (FBI Agent Booth), were named producers on the show this season, which has upped their creative input.

“David had it in his contract, and I think they wanted to do something to make me feel equal with him, which is nice,” she explains. “We’re definitely more involved in the show and where it goes … if there are story lines or plot points we feel aren’t right for the characters.” (more…)

Other Updates: David Boreanaz Reveals “Bones” Season 4 Renewal, Possible Foreign Location
March 21st, 2008

David Boreanaz and “Bones” creator Hart Hanson report that the series has just received its season 4 renewal for 20 episodes — with the popular Fox network show looking likely to location abroad next season. “Some of the contenders are Spain, Monaco, Italy — it just depends on how it gets put together,” Hanson says of the show, which also stars Emily Deschanel.

First, however, there’s season 3 to complete. “Bones” heads back into its post-WGA-strike production Tuesday (March 25) to shoot six more episodes for the current season — and will return to the air with fresh episodes April 14.

Other Updates: The writers’ strike is over!
February 8th, 2008

A deal has been struck between the major media companies and the Writers Guild of America to end the writers’ strike, former Walt Disney chief executive Michael Eisner revealed on CNBC.

“It’s over,” Eisner said. “They made the deal, they shook hands on the deal. It’s going on Saturday to the writers in general.”

Eisner, speaking live on CNBC’s “Fast Money,” seemed to hesitate initially about whether it was possible that the writers could still reject the agreement, but finally suggested the deal’s acceptance was inevitable.

“A deal has been made, and they’ll be back to work very soon,” Eisner said, adding, “I know a deal’s been made. I know it’s over.”

Eisner did not elaborate on terms of the agreement. He said he expects most of the media companies affected by the strike to have “small” write-downs as a result of the deal. Eisner said the deal was struck last Friday.
As a result of studio cutbacks, however, many of the writers who went on strike are unlikely to return to the same big-money contracts they’d had as individuals with the studios, Eisner said.
