Exclusive: The Easterseals Disability Film Challenge has created the first-ever disability loop group, launched with a recent Edfc workshop held on then Sony studio lot that included coaching, feedback and advice from animation executives. Sony Pictures Entertainment has been a key sponsor and host of Edfc for six years.
A loop group is a group of actors involved in recording audio for edited programming during post-production. Loop groups provide background noise and audio clips that enrich the soundscape and lend a sense of authenticity in films, TV shows, video games and commercials.
The initiative follows the casting of Edfc founder and director Nic Novicki as Lego Spider-Man and longtime Film Challenge participant Danielle Perez as Sun-Spider in Columbia Pictures/Sony Pictures Animation’s Oscar-nominated Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. Both Perez and Novicki are actors with disabilities who were recommended for their roles in the film by writer-producers Phil Lord and Chris Miller,...

Indie comics publisher Vault Comics is tackling an adaptation of The Roach, a novel from ebook and audiobook publisher Aethon.
The graphic novel adaptation of the novel is part of a partnership that the two companies inked last year. Aethon is to publish ebook and audiobook versions of select Vault titles, while the Montana-based publisher will give the comics treatment to select Aethon titles.
Roach had a leg (or six) up on the process, as the novel was written by Rhett C. Bruno, Aethon’s CEO.
But the book was no mere vanity project. The story of a vigilante hero permanently disabled in a gunfight, who finds himself once again called upon to protect his city, Roach received multiple awards including the 2020 Independent Audiobook Award Winner for best thriller/suspense and the 2020 Best Indie Book Award for action/adventure.

Sunrise Movie Review Rating:
Star Cast: Alex Pettyfer, Crystal Yu, William Gao, Kurt Yaeger, Olwen Fouéré, Guy Pearce
Director: Andrew Baird
Sunrise Movie Review Out ( Photo Credit – Lionsgate Movies / YouTube )
What’s Good: Guy Pearce’s sharp performance as the detestable Joe Reynolds stands out, capturing the essence of a villain with racist ideologies and a sense of entitlement. The film occasionally succeeds in capturing the gritty essence reminiscent of top-tier vampire films, exploring the terrifying aspects of racism and violence.
What’s Bad: “Sunrise” grapples with generic dialogue, a lack of character depth, and an inconsistent exploration of its intriguing concepts. The film’s attempt to fuse a vampire story with themes of American racism feels awkward and lacks nuance. The narrative meanders through various genres, resulting in a slow and disorganized amalgamation of ideas.

"The fields are dying! The land done turn its back on us." Lionsgate has revealed the official trailer for a horror thriller titled Sunrise, from filmmaker Andrew Baird. It was filmed up in Belfast and takes place in Northern Ireland as a UK / US production - opening in January 2024 in the US. An ex-cop, Fallon, roams the land as a creature of the night as he comes to terms with tragic loss of his family at the hands of a brutal demagogue, Reynolds. After he is befriended by a kind immigrant family, the instinctive killer is faced with a choice between revenge and redemption. It seems to be a vampire tale in reverse - should this vamp get revenge on the man who killed his family, or not? Guy Pearce and Alex Pettyfer star in this thrilling tale, along with Olwen Fouéré, Kurt Yaeger, William Gao, Crystal Yu, and Forrest Bothwell.

"Have you considered poisoning him?" "Countless times..." Apple has revealed the first look official trailer for a new movie called The Beanie Bubble, a fictional story about the crazy guy who created the world-famous Beanie Babies plush toy line and turned them into a hugely profitable worldwide you-gotta-have-them trend. They're making more and more movies like this nowadays because these guys are totally nuts and they don't deserve this money for tricking people into buying stuffed animals, and they got away with it anyway. But I'm not supposed to say this, right? "Capitalism, dial-up Internet, and bean-filled plush animals" in The Beanie Bubble. Zach Galifianakis stars as Ty Warner, with Elizabeth Banks, Sarah Snook, Geraldine Viswanathan, Kurt Yaeger, plus Madison Johnson. This looks crazy good! Reminds me of I, Tonya or Bad Education, but uh for the Beanie Babies guy instead. // Continue Reading ›...

When “NCIS: Hawai’i” airs tonight, it will quietly make a bit of franchise history — via guest star Kurt Yaeger. The episode will complete Yaeger’s full sweep of all four “NCIS” editions, which is believed to be the first time that an actor has appeared on every version in completely different roles.
“Given how long these franchises have been in existence, there will inevitably be some crossover with actors,” said CBS talent and casting exec VP Claudia Lyon. “We don’t have statistics on how often that happens, but I wouldn’t be surprised. There are many actors out there who do one or two of them. But what makes Kurt unique is that he’s done all four.”
But here’s what’s also notable: Yaeger is an actor/writer with a disability, having lost his part of his left leg in a 2006 motorbike accident. And he’s utilizing...

Kurt Yaeger has ridden a BMX bike in the X Games and performed all his own stunts on shows like “Sons of Anarchy,” “Lethal Weapon” and “NCIS: Los Angeles.” He’s also a below-the-knee amputee, the result of a 2006 motorcycle crash that tore his pelvis in half, collapsed his lungs and shattered ribs. Despite his accident, Yaeger finds work playing characters with and without disabilities. He’ll soon appear on NBC’s new ensemble drama “The Village.”
What was your acting career like before the accident versus after it?
Before, a lot of the jobs were related to being able to do stunts, kind of like an action guy who can ride a motorcycle down a flight of stairs and have a line or two. After, it got a little more palpable. The desire to play physically demanding roles is even higher than it was before; I want to prove...

The team behind the enormous British cultural phenomenon The Inbetweeners returns to screens with The Festival after multiple dips in form with sizeable stabs at original content in both cinema and television, with little to no acclaim or success in either medium.
Revisiting the Inbetweeners franchise has been a mixed bag for writer and directors Iain Morris and Damon Beesley. In 2011 they launched a cinematic event with a feature film that stirred an impressive success earning $88,025,781 worldwide. Three years later they turned to the well of predictability, already dry and running on empty with a sequel that ultimately neglected any common sense contextually that angered fans and led...

Michael Raymond-James (Game of Silence), Kurt Yaeger (Quarry) and Rarmian Newton (Rise) are set for recurring roles opposite Paul Wesley, Dania Ramirez and Danielle Campbell in CBS All Access’ straight-to-series psychological thriller Tell Me a Story, from Kevin Williamson and Aaron Kaplan’s Kapital Entertainment.
Written by Williamson, Tell Me a Story, which co-stars Billy Magnussen and Kim Catrall, is based on a Spanish format. It takes the world’s most beloved fairy tales and reimagines them as a dark and twisted psychological thriller. Set in modern day New York City, the first season of this serialized drama interweaves “The Three Little Pigs,” “Little Red Riding Hood,” and “Hansel and Gretel” into an epic and subversive tale of love, loss, greed, revenge and murder.
Raymond-James will play Mitch, a lifelong blue collar worker who struggles to provide for his wife by working for his gruff father-in-law. To make ends meet,...

Carl Hansen’s “Check Mate” won the award for best film at the fifth annual Easterseals Disability Film Challenge awards Thursday night.
Actor-comic Nic Novicki, founder-director of the Film Challenge, said the goal is to “show stories that haven’t been seen” and to remind the disabled community that they may feel invisible to Hollywood but things are changing. “The people are ready to see us,” he said, drawing cheers and applause from the enthusiastic audience.
There were four honorees for the short films, including best filmmaker, Day Daniells, with “Hit On,” a seriocomic romance she co-wrote with the film’s star, Adam Nelson; awareness campaign award, David Tenenbaum, “Footloose”; and best actor, J.B. Abajian, “Visibility.”
Clips from each of the nominated works were shown, and the four winners were screened in their entirety.
Entrants were given 55 hours to complete their film, of three-to-five minutes in length, depicting disabilities in its many forms.

One of the creators of The Inbetweeners Damon Beesley is teaming up with actor Joe Thomas for a new Comedy film about a group of teens attending a music festival called The Festival. The film will star Thomas, who played Simon on The Inbetweeners and Martin on the two's current Netflix and BBC collaboration White Gold, and the film is already teasing the likes of Jemaine Clement and Kurt Yaeger, so it should be a blast.
Those who have seen The Inbetweeners already know of the brilliance of this British comedy duo, and those who haven't will have to settle for the slim pickings that are available to watch on streaming services to get an idea. That, or they could watch the equally hilarious White Gold which stars Ed Westwick and I can't recommend enough to anyone who asks! Check out a trailer for that below and be on the...

When a rogue scientist discovers an immense egg in the dark recesses of a rainforest he thinks hes stumbled across his fame and fortune. But little does he know that it belongs to a terrifying hybrid monster, known only as the Piranhaconda (a moniker only mentioned once in the Entire film and dismissed as a stupid name!). Soon the beast is on the loose, hunting for its unborn child, rampaging through the country and destroying everything in its path in a mass of CGI-enhanced gory-glory.
A killer-creature B-movie from the Roger Corman staple, Piranhaconda is yet another made for Syfy TV movie suprisingly this one comes from director Jim Wynorski, who is well-known in the horror community for successfully mixing T&A and horror.

The slow ride through Mac's world continues to fascinate.
Watching him make mistake after mistake after mistake and the repercussions that follow makes for some truly engaging television. It's amazing how fast each hour flies by, considering how slow the story is being told.
Quarry Season 1 Episode 3 was no exception as we got to see how his night of indiscretion almost cost Joni her life.
Joni proved herself to be quite resourceful despite the fact she ignored her intuition and let Suggs into the house. I would imagine that even if she did close the door on him, he wouldn't have just walked away. And, had that happened, things might have turned out much worse for Joni.
We really got to see some added depth to Joni's character when she found herself tied up at Suggs' place. Jodi Balfour did an excellent job portraying Joni's fear while still giving us...

Producers and studio executives are warming to the idea of putting more actors with disabilities onscreen, according to casting directors and show creators. But disabled performers should be prepared to work hard to distinguish themselves. “You can’t expect to be hired just because you’re in a wheelchair,” said Angela Rockwood, a quadriplegic actor who co-created and stars in the unscripted series “Push Girls,” which airs on Sundance Channel. “If you want to be a serious actor, you’ve got to go out and take the acting classes; you’ve got to bring the juices so that when the roles come in you’re ready.” Even if a disabled performer is ready for her big role, that break won’t always come. Hollywood has a long history of casting able-bodied performers in disabled roles. A recent example advocates point to is NBC’s reboot of “Ironside,” which features Blair Underwood...

Graphic novel artist Gerry Kissell and "Sons of Anarchy" actor Kurt Yaeger aren't waiting for a greenlight from Hollywood to create a physically disabled action hero -- they're teaming up to do it themselves through Kickstarter. Kissell, best known for his work with Idw Publishing ("Code Word: Geronimo," "Iron Sky"), has turned to the crowdfunding website to raise $8,000 to produce and publish "Vindicated, Inc," a graphic novel about a double-amputee Delta Force soldier-turned-vigilante suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder. Kissell hopes to produce a movie adaptation as soon as next year. "This...

Fans of the 1960s "Ironside" may be excited to see Blair Underwood step into the titular role forNBC's "Ironside" reboot, but disabled actors aren't quite as impressed.
In fact, the disabled community views the casting choice as an offensive one.
"This would be like being in the '50s and having a white guy do blackface, at this point," "Sons of Anarchy" star Kurt Yaeger -- who lost his left leg after a motorcycle accident -- told The Wrap. "You need to start having disabled people playing disabled characters. Period."
However, some are applauding NBC for putting a character in a wheelchair and a character with Parkinson's ("The Michael J. Fox Show") at the forefront of its upcoming series. "NBC is putting two shows on air that feature characters with physical limitations, moving a kind of character who’s often relegated to supporting roles -- and who’s often there...

According to The Wrap it seems that not everyone is happy with NBC’s upcoming new reboot of their old 1970’s Ironside series, and, in particular with Blair Underwood in the lead role. Not because he’s black, but because he’s not disabled in real life. Several disabled actors feel that having an actor who isn't disabled playing the lead role in the series "is as offensive as blackface". That’s what disabled actor Kurt Yaeger (Sons of Anarchy) says, stating that having it "…would be like being in the '50s and having a white guy do blackface. At this point, You need to start having disabled people playing disabled characters. Period." O.K. that’s an extreme point of view ...

Piranhaconda
Stars: Michael Madsen, Rachel Hunter, Shandi Finnessey, Terri Ivens, Rib Hillis, Angie Savage, Chris De Christopher, Kurt Yaeger, Noah Blake | Written by J. Brad Wilke, Mike MacLean | Directed by Jim Wynorski
When a rogue scientist discovers an immense egg in the dark recesses of a rainforest he thinks he’s stumbled across his fame and fortune. But little does he know that it belongs to a terrifying hybrid monster, known only as the Piranhaconda (a moniker only mentioned once in the Entire film and dismissed as a stupid name!). Soon the beast is on the loose, hunting for its unborn child, rampaging through the country and destroying everything in its path in a mass of CGI-enhanced gory-glory.
A killer-creature B-movie from the Roger Corman staple, Piranhaconda is yet another made for Syfy TV movie – suprisingly this one comes from director Jim Wynorski, who is well-known in the horror community...

Kurt Yaeger plays a key role on Sons of Anarchy Season 5, coming on board the FX thriller this season as Greg the Peg.
But before we get to what lies ahead for this Nomad, it's worth noting the incredible journey that has taken Yaeger to this place in his career.
The San Francisco native started acting and riding as a child, appearing in church plays and hailing from a motorcycle-loving family in Northern California (sound familiar?).
A BMX veteran, Yaeger was pursuing a Masters Degree in Hydrogeology when he got into a severe motorcycle accident. It resulted in a torn Acl and McL; a fractured pelvis and vertebra; a concussion; and the amputation of his left leg.
Following four months prone in a hospital bed, Yaeger then spent another nine months trying to recover… only to be told that doctors had messed up the initial amputation. Another would be needed.

We’ve had nearly a year to breath since the fated shot heard round Samcro. Clay (Ron Perlman) took the life of another member of the Redwood Original 9 in Sons of Anarchy Episode 4.8 (read the Samcro Obituary).
The Soa webisphere cried in outrage, calling for Clay’s death – at the hands of Jax (Charlie Hunnam) and/or Opie (Ryan Hurst). Alas, we don’t hold the gavel. The weight (and burden) of that honor falls on the shoulders of showrunner Kurt Sutter. And, he ruled that Clay would live. But, there would be consequences.
Sons of Anarchy Season 5 began in an ostensibly new direction. Jax now officially rides at the head of the pack, with his Sergeant-at-arms, Chibs (Tommy Flanagan), by his side. Clay, “broken” but not out, looms in the periphery. He’s hunched over and unable to ride. However, don’t call him the new Piney (William Lucking). If you did,...

There’s not a lot of information out there on this one so excuse me for the brevity, it almost got passed us to begin with (as this is a few days old), but I know how everyone wants to know all things Samcro. With that in mind, Tara Summers has landed a role in Sons of Anarchy season 5, and according to Deadline, a recurring one. Not a lot of details beyond that the english actress will portray Karen Dunhill, who we will see working with Maggie Siff’s Tara.
If Summers looks familiar you probably caught her on Boston Legal as Katie Loyd or (as pictured above) with my girl Buffy on Ringer. She will has also be in the new David E. Kelley pilot, the TNT medical drama Monday Mornings. She’s just the latest in a mob of new characters we know are coming to Charming, following the already announced Ashley Tisdale,...

Sons of Anarchy season 5 is rolling our way and just around the corner, so it’s time for introductions to some of the new cast of characters headed to Charming and the Samcro mix. You probably already know about Ashley Tisdale (who has been featured in several images so far), Jimmy Smits, and Damon Pope (Lost’s Harold Perrineau coming into town like a boss), but you might not know some featured in this video sent to us by FX, the latest of their “Before the Anarchy” featurettes.
Gogo (Chris Browning), Frankie Diamonds (Chuck Zito), and Greg the Peg, Fiasco (Rey Gallegos) and Lupe (Jorge Pallo) – yes, that’s Lupe Fiasco to you if you see the two running up on you – introduce themselves in what looks to be a video presented by another new member of the Samcro crew, Kurt Yaeger – aka Greg the Peg. Seems like they will all fit in fine,...

It’s time to meet the new faces in Charming, friends. The latest “Before the Anarchy” webisode introduces three new members of S.A.M.C.R.O., who we’ll get to know when Sons of Anarchy returns Sept. 11. There’s Frankie Diamonds (Chuck Zito), Gogo (Chris Browning), and Greg the Peg, a badass biker who just happens to be missing a leg (like actor Kurt Yaeger). “I don’t know if you should trust us or not,” Yaeger says. This show? We’ll guess not.

Today we have a couple more Sons of Anarchy season 5 primers, one just to sent to us by FX and another from last week that slipped my mind that I’m adding on for a double dos of Samcro love now. Both are part of the “Before the Anarchy” featurettes FX has been releasing leading up to the upcoming new season, offering insights into characters, old and new, as season 5 draws nearer. These two focus on Maggie Siff’s Tara and the Sons of Anarchy boss himself (and on-screen Otto) Kurt Sutter.
Siff talks about her new darkside and her status as the new Samcro first lady with Jax’s ascension, with Sutter sprinkling other general tidbits about Tara. The second video is about Sutter trying to establish a sense of off-camera camaraderie – citing his experience with Shawn Ryan on The Shield – with his cast and crew and how it translates for the audience on-screen.

Among the host of new faces rolling into Sons of Anarchy in the upcoming 5th season on AMC, and perhaps the most interesting on paper, is Ashley Tisdale, former Disney girl turned into Samcro setting high roller escort for Kurt Sutter next season. Tisdale is set to play Emma Jean and appear in at least two episodes of season 5, and we now get a fresh look at the former Hellcat via a still featuring her with Charlie Hunnam’s Jax, the new Samcro boss.
TVline debuted the image, adding to a set of images featuring Tisdale released in June, that presented a scene that looks like she was getting roughed up. Jean and Jax look tight in this image, and one wonders if there will be any Maggie Siff/Tara drama stemming from this, though it would seem somewhat trite now, and Tisdale’s facial expression doesn’t exactly spell comfort.

FX sent us over another featurette for the upcoming Sons of Anarchy season 5, continuing their “Before the Anarchy” pieces. This one strikes to the heart of the show, focusing on the Samcro rides: the bikes themselves. We get an inside look to some of the thoughts regarding the unique design and models of the Samcro (or rather, The Mayans) stable, introduced by Emilio Rivera, or as you probably know him, Marcus Álvarez, the Mayan’s boss, as they film a scene in Long Beach.
You may have seen some of the previous releases of ”Before the Anarchy”, which have included one that offers us a glimpse behind the scenes of season 5 newcomer Damon Pope (Lost’s Harold Perrineau) and Unser, and another that focused on the duo of Chucky and Gemma. Any insight on the new characters are welcome, as FX and Kurt Sutter has loaded up the new faces...

We got a look behind the scenes of Sons of Anarchy upcoming fifth season earlier this week from the vantage of Chucky (Michael Ornstein) and Gemma (Katey Sagal), and now another Sons of Anarchy duo is next up in this Before the Anarchy video sent to us by FX. Current fans already know about Dayton Callie’s (who I loved in Deadwood) Wayne Unser, whose been with the show almost since the beginning (the second episode), but this tease offers us a look at one of the new faces Samcro is going to have to deal with, one Damon Pope.
Harold Perrineau, who most people know from Lost, signed on to Sons of Anarchy last May to portray Pope, an ex-drug kingpin in Oakland. What’s Pope’s angle with Samcro? Remember Laroy’s girl who got hit in Tig’s hit and run intended for Laroy? That was Damon Pope’s daughter,...
