Zach Braff to reprise his beloved Scrubs Character J.D. Dorian in upcoming Reboot
Zach Braff is getting ready! It was reported that the 50-year-old actor will return to his popular role as John "J.D." Dorian in ABC's upcoming Scrubs revival. From 2001 to 2010, Braff played J.D., the central physician in the popular medical comedy, alongside Donald Faison, Sarah Chalke, Judy Reyes, and Christa Miller. Braff returned for only six episodes of the series' ninth and final season, which introduced a new cast of characters. Throughout its tenure, the actor got three Golden Globe nominations and one Emmy nomination. Braff has expressed interest in returning to Sacred Heart Hospital for a possible revival since the show's conclusion. During an appearance on the Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum podcast in August 2024, the actor shared what he misses most about his role in the show. I miss laughing every day. Every day, belly laughter was part of the work. And when that went gone, by the end of the nine years, we were all exhausted," he remarked. "We were beginning to recycle jokes. Everyone is pretty fried. We'd work outrageous hours that people don't do today. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trade Bitcoin & Ethereum – No Wallet Needed! IC Markets Start Now Undo We didn't have much of a life away from it. So we were just sort of cooked." Though the sitcom's end in 2010 felt like the correct decision, Braff stated that he would love to reprise his part if the opportunity arose. However, he had a few conditions that would have to be met if he returned. "When we signed up to do our show, they can put you under a pretty insane contract of, like, seven years and stuff, which was... which I wouldn't do [again]," he told me. "But is this a limited thing? You're basically saying, 'Do you want go get the group back together and f------ laugh your ass off with some of your greatest buddies and be paid well?' Yeah, that sounds incredible." Bill Lawrence , the show's original creator, previously addressed Deadline about his concept for the upcoming Scrubs remake. The showrunner stated that he intended the upcoming series to have both original cast members and new actors. "We've been talking about a lot, and I think the only real reason to do it is a combo," he told me. "A: people want to see what the world of medicine was like for the individuals they care about, which is an essential component of any successful reboot. But B: I think the show has always worked because you get to watch young people being thrust into the realm of medicine, knowing that the young people who go there are incredibly idealistic and do it because it is a calling. " He went on to say, "There's no cliché about 'wealthy physicians playing golf'; that's no longer the case. So, no matter what, I believe it would be a huge error not to do a combination of those two things.

'It's just constant tension': Damien Leone doesn't find movies fun to make
Damien Leone doesn't think filmmaking is "fun". The 41-year-old filmmaker has enjoyed success with his slasher franchise 'Terrifier' and explained that the process of getting a movie onto the big screen is a lot less glamorous than people think. Speaking on the 'Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum' podcast, Damien said: "Movies aren't fun to make. People think you're having the time of your life. "It is hard work. It is constant pressure. You don't want anybody to feel bad, but it's just constant tension." Damien's movie 'Terrifier 3' caused a stir with its violence when it was released last year and the director explained that he frequently argued with producer Phil Falcone during the making of the flick – which had greater funding after the success of 'Terrifier 2' in 2022. The 'All Hallows' Eve' filmmaker said: "We were on the phone arguing all day long. It was not a fun experience making part three just because of so many other external factors. So much more pressure, so much more money." Damien explained that he is planning to bring the 'Terrifier' series to an end after the fourth movie and revealed that he has plenty of other projects in the pipeline that he could make in the meantime, although he will only board a film if he can have a hand in the writing process. He said: "I have so many original ideas. There's a bunch of potential projects. If one of these other projects is ready to happen and that'll take me away from 'Terrifier 4' I'll do it. "All of these potential movies would involve me at least co-writing, because it's really how you shape some of these things." Damien doesn't have a "strict formula" when it comes to writing scripts but does seek to put in key ideas that he has dreamed up. Asked if he skips to the horror element when it comes to penning scripts, he said: "Not necessarily. I also don't write in a linear way so if I feel like writing the ending, I'll write the ending. I have all the ideas on my phone that I know I have to weave into the story somehow if I'm in love with that set piece. "There's no strict rule or formula in terms of how I write the script. I bounce all over the place." Leone accepts that the 'Terrifier' franchise is likely to be the creation he has best remembered for. He said: "It's certainly lightning in a bottle. I'm not delusional, there's a great, great, great chance that when I die I'll be known as the creator of Art the Clown."

Damien Leone wrote Terrifier 2 script in his old job delivering flowers
Damien Leone wrote the script for 'Terrifier 2' as he delivered flowers. The 41-year-old filmmaker has recalled how he crafted the script for the second movie in his ultraviolent slasher franchise whilst working in his previous job. Damien told the 'Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum' podcast: "I literally wrote the entire movie of 'Terrifier 2' when I was delivering flowers. Almost all the ideas came to me as I was driving that van." The filmmaker explained that he never wanted to lock himself out of the movie industry before he went on to find success with the 'Terrifier' franchise. Leone said: "I didn't want to dive into a career that would keep me away from filmmaking. I needed a 9 to 5 job that I could break away from any time I would get a freelance gig doing makeup effects on a movie or if I was gonna make my own movie." The 'Terrifier' franchise features the iconic antagonist Art the Clown and Damien revealed that the murderous character was conceived when he was making his first short film. He said: "I wish it was a cooler story. It was when I was gonna make my first short film, I said, 'Why is anybody going to watch this?' "I'm a makeup effects artist, so I'm gonna try and pack this thing out in 10 minutes with creatures and some makeup effects gags and sort of generic characters that I enjoy and creep me out. "Clowns always creep me out. I didn't have a particular fascination with killer clowns, they didn't scare me. "I knew I could put a spin on the clown and make a cool version of one at least and then it comes down to the process of creating it. "It was very quick (to create). I sketched him. That's why his name is Art. I kept referring to him as that. There was never a second name. Things like that just click, you feel like they happen for a reason." Art the Clown is portrayed by David Howard Thornton in the film series and Leone knew immediately that the star was right for the role because he had the perfect physicality. The filmmaker said: "He was the sixth person to audition. I knew instantly. "There's a good chance I would've cast him just on his physicality alone when he walked in the room. As soon as I saw him I said, 'He's just gonna look great.' I was looking for a tall, skinny person with a big smile." The director explained that the actor behind the antagonist couldn't be any more different from the role he plays. The 'Frankenstein vs. The Mummy' helmer said: "He's a walking cartoon character, he couldn't be any more different to Art the Clown, it's incredible." Damien also revealed that he had to curb the enthusiasm of star Lauren LaVera – who plays the role of Sienna Shaw – when it came to doing stunts for the flick. He recalled: "She was so psyched about it and she read the script. She's a stunt performer, so she couldn't wait to get in and do all the physical stuff. She wanted to do stunts that I wouldn't even let her do."

It's a bird, it's a plane. It's rumors about Teri Hatcher. During an appearance on the 'Inside of You' podcast released on Tuesday, Dean Cain, 58, weighed in on the rumors that former 'Desperate Housewives' star Teri Hatcher, 60, is difficult to work with. Cain and Hatcher starred on 'Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman' together, which ran from 1993 to 1997. 'Sometimes [it was] the greatest thing in the world and sometimes a lot more difficult,' Cain said. 9 Teri Hatcher and Dean Cain attend Piaget & Vanity Fair Celebrate The Publication Of 'Burnt Toast' at Aqua Lounge on May 2, 2006 in Beverly Hills, CA.

I'm real simple. Plug me in and let's go. I'm here to get this done as fast as we can.' Cain explained, 'But also, it seemed like I just wanted to finish and go home. I almost feel like she didn't. There were times where I felt like, 'I don't think she wants to go home because she's worried about this one little thing that has nothing to do with what we're doing. And that's slowing us down for two and a half hours. Like, I don't understand.'' 9 Dean Cain as Clark Kent, Teri Hatcher as Lois Lane, 1993-1997. ©ABC/Courtesy Everett Collection The former 'Ripley's Believe It Or Not' host recalled, 'Her makeup people couldn't touch anybody else [while] I'm in the trailer with everybody there. I didn't care. There wasn't a thing for me.' However, he also admitted that Hatcher 'carried the show.' 'I just got to react off her. It worked wonderfully. It was a great pairing. I still think — no offense to anybody else's Lois Lane — but I still think she's the best Lois Lane of all time.' 9 Teri Hatcher and Dean Cain in 'Lois and Clark.' ©Warner Bros/Courtesy Everett Collection He said the two former co-stars are still in touch. 'We're still very friendly. We didn't have a big [falling out]. There was no like, 'I'm not talking to her.'' Cain admitted that there 'was a time she wasn't talking to me for a short time. But I'm an athlete, man. If there's guys on my football team, we're going to hash it out so that we can still play ball together.' Hatcher was the subject of feud rumors with her 'Desperate Housewives' co-stars Felicity Huffman, Marcia Cross and Eva Longoria while they starred on the show, which ran for eight seasons, from 2004 to 2012. 9 Dean Cain poses for a portrait during the 27th Annual FAMILY FILM AND TV AWARDS airing November 9th, 2024.

She added, 'Usually we'd only see the cast at table reads, where we'd sit quietly in the back and try not to make eye contact with Teri Hatcher.'

'Everyone tried their darndest to get along with this woman over the course of the show. It was impossible,' he wrote without naming the actress. 'And things went from bad to worse. Felicity still insisted on saying, 'Good morning' to this actress, even though she knew she wouldn't get a response. I found out about this and asked Felicity about it.' In a 2023 interview on the 'Armchair Expert' podcast with Dax Shepard, Longoria claimed that the feud allegations were just a 'narrative.' 'People ask me that a lot. 'Were you guys really fighting?'' she told Shepard. 'And I was like, 'God, I forgot that was a thing.' It was a thing. It was a big thing.'

The director of 'Terrifier' built his horror movie franchise as a side gig while working as a delivery driver. Now the films have made over $100 million.
The "Terrifier" franchise has given audiences a new horror icon with the serial killer Art the Clown. Damien Leone spent 10 years delivering flowers while writing "Terrifier" and "Terrifier 2." Now, after "Terrifier 3," the franchise has made almost $100 million worldwide. The director Damien Leone said he spent 10 years working as a flower delivery driver while writing the "Terrifier" movies. Now, the ultra-gory franchise has made over $100 million worldwide. The supernatural slasher movies revolve around Art (David Howard Thornton), a silent and brutal serial killer. To some horror fans, Art the Clown is now as iconic as the likes of Ghostface, Michael Myers, and Freddy Krueger. The 2018 movie "Terrifier" made $420,000, and 2022's "Terrifier 2" earned $15 million as the hype around the character grew. Then, in 2024, "Terrifier 3" upped the gore — and the returns. The third installment grossed $90 million worldwide, per Box Office Mojo. Collectively, Leone's twisted creation has now made $106 million. Leone told Tuesday's episode of "Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum" that many aspiring filmmakers ask him about his path to success in the industry. "My favorite thing to tell them is, 'Dude, I was writing the script to 'Terrifier 2' in a flower van," he said. "That was my primary job for 10 years, because I knew I didn't want to dive into a career that would lock me up or keep me away from filmmaking," he added. The director said that the role was flexible enough that he could focus on freelancing within the film industry, while writing "Terrifier 2." He added: "I knew I needed a nine-to-five job that I could break away from any time I would get a freelance gig doing makeup effects on a movie or if I was going to go make my own movie, but I would always go back to the flower van. "I literally wrote the entire movie of 'Terrifier 2' when I was delivering flowers. Almost all the ideas came to me while I was driving that van." Leone is working on finishing the series with "Terrifier 4," which will dive further into the mythology surrounding the franchise's heroine Sienna Shaw (Lauren LaVera) and Art the Clown. He said: "I'm going to wrap it all up in the next installment." Read the original article on Business Insider
