			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Looks like Amy took part in another small project. <img src='http://www.amy-acker.org/wp-includes/images/beccary-blue/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> Details are below, courtesy of <a href="http://www.fearnet.com/news/b18302_drusilla_teams_up_with_dracula.html" target="_blank">FEARNet</a>.</p>
<blockquote><p>Juliet&#8217;s documentary, <em>Take Flight</em>, offers a behind-the-scenes look at Oldman directing his music video for the band Chutzpah entirely with cell phones, one of which Oldman himself operates. &#8220;It&#8217;s like being inside his brain…seeing through his eyes,&#8221; says Juliet.</p>
<p>Because <em>Take Flight</em> is about the creative process, Juliet&#8217;s also interviewed some of her acting colleagues for the documentary, including a fistful of names very familiar to fans of <em>Buffy</em>, <em>Angel</em> and other favorite genre shows, as well as a handful of music stars.</p>
<p>Check out the guest list: Kat Von D, Michael Rosenbaum (Lex Luthor on Smalllville), Sam Anderson (Bernard from Lost, Holland Manners from Angel), <strong>Amy Acker (Angel, Alias, Dollhouse)</strong>, Christian Kane (Angel), David J (bassist for Love and Rockets, Bauhaus), Armin Shimermn (Quark from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Principal Snyder from Buffy), Harry Groener (The Mayor from Buffy) and Andrea Romano (voice director for all of Warner Bros animation.)</p>
<p>The madness premieres on julietlandaustakeflight.com, where you can watch a trailer for the film now. We&#8217;ll definitely be checking this one out.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Amy undertook several (spoilery) interviews lately, covering <em>Happy Town</em> and the <em>Dollhouse</em> series finale, and we were lucky enough to also receive additional confirmation from Amy herself that she indeed does have a small part in <em>The Cabin in the Woods</em> &#8212; it took 3 weeks to film, with most of her scenes being opposite Richard Jenkins and Bradley Whitford. <img src='http://www.amy-acker.org/wp-includes/images/beccary-blue/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> The extract is posted below; you can read this article in full &#038; the other articles in the <a href="/press-library/">Press Library</a>. Happy reading!</p>
<blockquote><p>Q: You got to work with Joss and Drew Goddard again on The Cabin in the Woods, right?</p>
<p>Amy: Yeah. That was another lucky thing. They hadn’t found someone, and it was just a couple of days before shooting, so they asked me to go do The Cabin in the Woods. Drew is just so awesome, and Joss is one of my best friends. Any opportunity to work with them, I’m like, “I’ll do catering. I don’t care. Just let me hang out with you guys.”</p>
<p>Q: How big of a role did they have for you?</p>
<p>Amy: It’s a smaller role, but I was out there for three weeks of it. All of my stuff is with Richard Jenkins and Bradley Whitford, so I was just laughing the whole time.</p>
<p>Q: Is there a separate adult story going on, with this kid story in the woods?</p>
<p>Amy: I don’t know what I’m supposed to say about this movie. Maybe. It’s a horror movie.</p>
<p>Q: Is it scary or is it funny too?</p>
<p>Amy: I’m not going to say because I don’t want to get in trouble.</p>
<p>Q: What did you think when you found out it was going to be transferred into 3-D?</p>
<p>Amy: I was super-excited. I got a note. Drew sent out an email to everyone. Having a 5-year-old and a 3-year-old, every movie I’ve seen in the past year has been in 3-D, so I was like, “That would be so awesome, if they made a real movie in 3-D.” That’s the thing that everybody is doing now.</p>

<blockquote><p>Some of Hollywood&#8217;s top stars will gather in Banff and at Sunshine Village Jan. 14-17, 2010, to help protect North America&#8217;s waterways.</p>
<p>The Fairmont Banff Springs Sports Invitational &#8211; in support of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.&#8217;s Waterkeeper Alliance &#8211; will be co-hosted by Golden Globe and Emmy Award winning actor Alec Baldwin and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The 10-year-old Waterkeeper Alliance is the world&#8217;s fastest growing environmental movement, with member organizations throughout North and South America, Europe and Australia, all dedicated to clean water.</p>
<p>The Invitational, which has raised millions of dollars for environmental protection in recent years, has in the past drawn such Hollywood A-list stars as Glenn Close, Michael Douglas, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Meg Ryan, Dan Aykroyd, Jason Priestley and Martin Sheen. This year&#8217;s participants will be announced as the event draws closer.</p>
<p>The stars will also spend two action-packed days skiing and competing in fun events at the famous Sunshine Village. Activities including toboggan, cross-country skiing and dual giant slalom races are well within public view to skiers and snowboarders. The event will culminate with a gala dinner and concert at The Fairmont Banff Springs by Lyle Lovett. Tickets are available for the star-studded gala, the only open to the public event at the famed Banff National Park landmark.</p>
<p>&#8220;We are delighted to host Hollywood in support of the Waterkeepers,&#8221; said Ralph Scurfield, president and CEO of the resort. &#8220;Sunshine Village has been recognized as North America&#8217;s leading ski and snowboard resort for our water conservation practices and we can&#8217;t wait to show the stars the leading environmental programs we built into the new Sunshine Mountain Lodge.&#8221;</p>
<p>In 2009, the made-for television extravaganza raised more than $1 million for the Waterkeeper Alliance. </p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey guys, apologies for the lack of updates from myself lately, but unfortunately, I now have limited internet so I&#8217;m only able to update several times a month if I&#8217;m lucky. Because of this, I missed the site anniversary which was on January 19 &#8211; Amy Acker Fan has now been online for 3 years! Something I&#8217;m proud of, since the site has come a long way from it&#8217;s humble beginnings as a temporary site without full content. <img src='http://www.amy-acker.org/wp-includes/images/beccary-blue/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>You may have noticed that my good friend Riikka has been updating the site but she&#8217;s also incredibly busy so hasn&#8217;t been able to update as much as she would like to &#8211; she does have HD <em>Dollhouse</em> screencaptures available though, which shall be added as soon as possible.</p>
<p>However, rest assured that this site isn&#8217;t going anywhere &#8211; I shall continue to make updates offline (mostly DVD screencaptures &#038; video clips) and upload them when I&#8217;m able to. I realise <em>Happy Town</em> is about to start, and while I may not be able to update weekly, the site will be kept up-to-date. <img src='http://www.amy-acker.org/wp-includes/images/beccary-blue/smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Thanks for visiting, and I hope you&#8217;ll continue to do so!</p>

<p><strong>Spoiler warning!</strong></p>
<p><span id="more-2017"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>“The day before they started shooting the pilot, Joss [Whedon] called me up and said ‘We’ve got this part, she was supposed to be this 55 year old woman, but I’m thinking that you should do it’,” revealed Acker at yesterday’s Television Critics Associaiton Press Tour in Pasadena while promoting her upcoming ABC small town thriller <em>Happy Town</em>. “I didn’t know if I was just going to be in the pilot and of course I had no idea I would end up as a Doll and all this stuff would unfold.”</p>
<p>By ‘all this stuff,’ Acker is of course referring to the jaw-droppoing turn of events that took place during last Friday’s episode that saw Dr. Saunders/Whiskey unapologetically put a bullet through Bennett’s head.</p>
<p>“I think people think I look innocent so they like to have me ending up being a killer,” joked the actress. “You get to do so much more with these types of supernatural or mysterious characters. Like on <em>Angel</em>, getting to play a girl in a cave and coming out playing this Blue Demon Goddess, you don’t really get to do that on a <em>CSI</em> or something. With these guys [<em>Happy Town</em> creators Josh Appelbaum, Andrea Nemec and Scott Rosenberg] and Joss, you get to experience a whole range of emotions, where it feels like you’re doing twenty-five different shows. Funny episodes… scary episodes… you’re not trapped [as an actress]. Like the episode of <em>Angel</em> where he was a puppet, that could have been on a sitcom.”</p>
<p>Unfortunately, there is nothing funny about FOX’s cancellation of the struggling sophomore series, which has a mere two episoes remaining after quietly morphing itself into one of television’s most daring and thought-provoking shows.</p>
<p>“I have one more episode, but it’s a very different [episode] than that one [on Friday].” teased Acker who was playing coy when asked about the possibility of a Boyd/Claire connection “There will be a connection, but it’s not Claire. I definitely have something to do with Rossum in the next episode… does that make sense?</p>
<p>Not really. But what fun would <em>Dollhouse</em> be if it did. </p></blockquote>
