One of the latest shows to make it’s appearence here in New Zealand is the crime drama Navy NCIS, co-starring Michael Weatherly as Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo. NZ fans of MW can catch the show on Sunday nights at 8.30pm.

Meanwhile, fans who are familiar with Michael’s role in the show may like to discuss one of our forum’s latest topics started by OD: Spot Logan Cale In Tony DiNozzo. This thread was inspired by a discussion on DA cast members in new roles, and how it can be easy to want to pretend they’re still the same character (well, I do anyway. ). So, can you spot any traces of Logan’s character in Tony?

It’s confirmed that Jessica will be be in Fantastic Four. From superherohype.com:

Jessica Alba has been cast as the Invisible Girl for 20th Century Fox’s upcoming Marvel Comics adaptation “Fantastic Four.” Alba, whose features include “Sin City” and “Out of the Blue,” beat out stiff competition for the role that included Rachel McAdams and Elizabeth Banks. She joins Michael Chiklis, Chris Evans and Ioan Gruffudd as the adventure-seeking quartet made up of scientist Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic (Gruffudd); his love interest, Susan Storm/the Invisible Girl (Alba); her brother, Johnny Storm/the Human Torch (Chris Evans); and Reed’s best friend, Benjamin Grimm/the Thing (Chiklis).

Happy Birthday to Michael who celebrated his 36th on July 8.

Also, he’ll play a starring role in upcoming romantic comedy, Her Minor Thing. I had a link to an article about it, but I’ve lost it. Oh well, stay tuned!
