Jessica Alba made her debut tonight as a stripper called Nancy in her newest movie, Sin City (hitting cinemas on 1st April).

Here’s an odd bit of trivia for you: Sin City premiered tonight in the LA’s Chinese Theatre. Okay but wait, there’s more… Manns Chinese Theatre in LA was, according to Max Allen Collin’s Dark Angel novel Before the Dawn, the place where Max spent her youth learning to be a professional thief in a street gang, before making her way to Seattle! Come on, some fellow Dark Angel geek out there has to be all “how freakin out of it is that” about it?
*cough* Okay, moving along… New images have been added to the gallery of Jessica in Sin
City, Into the Blue and Fantastic Four. And finally, read on if you’d like to check out the latest article on Jessica’s role in Sin City

Jessica Alba Goes To ‘Sin City’
CBS News, NEW YORK,
March 28, 2005

(CBS) When it comes to rising stars, few actresses are as hot as Jessica Alba. She seems to be on the cover of every magazine and has three major films opening in the next four months. The first opens Friday. It’s called “Sin City” and co-stars Bruce Willis.

“He goes to prison for her, and she writes to him every week for eight years,” Alba tells The Early Show co-anchor Harry Smith about her relationship with Willis in the film.

As Nancy Callahan, she is seen first as an 11 year-old girl in the most dire danger. Then, she is an alluring 19-year-old exotic dancer.

“He comes back into her life eight years later. He thinks she’s in danger again, and when he comes back, he thinks she’s going to be this little, sweet bookworm who has a hard time talking to people and very, you know, passive,” Alba says.

To prepare for the role of exotic dancer, she says she visited a few strip clubs.

She says, “I was sort of unsuccessful in finding somebody to copy because strippers, for the most part, don’t have themes, and Nancy has a theme. She has a cowboy thing and with the lasso and chaps. So it’s a fantasy world, and she is an innocent girl and sort of bizarre. They don’t teach you rope tricks. They teach you how to get tips. That wasn’t what I wanted to do. That was completely innocent.”

Also new for Alba was working in Troublemaker Studios, director Robert Rodriguez’s pioneering facility in Austin, Texas. There, most of the scenes were shot with a green screen. The background is generated later on with computers.

Explaining a chase scene, Alba says, “We were in a car, but we were on a green stage. It’s me and Bruce in a car with the green stage, and then, they had these humongous fans blowing at us as if we’re driving really fast. It is all black and white and to get the right contrast and to make it as cool as the drawing, Robert literally had to draw in the background. So it’s much like doing a play.”

Having started in the business at 12 with “Dark Angel,” Alba says she has been blessed in her career. She has two other movies opening in July: “The Fantastic Four” and “Into The Blue.”

For a while there, authors at the tbw.org archive may have found uploading and editing fics to be darn near impossible due to what I thought was a prob with the archive script.

Also, and Jensen’s been cast alongside Jared Padalecki of Gilmore Girls for one of the lead roles in WB’s newest TV pilot, Supernatural. Jensen and Jared play the part of two brothers who ‘encounter unusual ghosts and local creatures straight out of American folk lore and urban legends during a road trip from San Francisco back home to Los Angeles’

Filming is due to start this month in LA. :)
