Battlestar Galactica Casts List

Edward James Olmos: Commander William Adama

Edward wanted to be a professional baseball player. But he ended up trying to be a rock star. Imagine that, commander William Adama, rocking it with his garage bands at the tender age of 15. My research tells me that he was really into it too. He had lots of experience, even though his band never made it big time. They played in the Sunset Strip All this was before he considered becoming an actor. As an actor, he was in the original Miami Vice. He was Lt. Martin Castillo. He is also a very active activist (however redundant that sounds). His favorite causes are those for that deal with children’s rights. The man served as a UNICEF ambassador and was awarded several honors.

Mary McDonnell: Laura Roslin

The always beautiful Mary Mc Donnell plays Madam President in the Battlestar Galactica universe. Mary was first famous for her work in theater on the East Coast. But most of you Battlestar Galactica Casts fans should realize that she was that girl with Kevin Costner’s movie “Dancing with Wolves”. She was an Indian girl there. The role was a very riveting and it got her nominated for an Oscar. Mary’s got two kids namely Micheal and Olivia. She’s been teaching courses in acting, had a brief stint in the T.V. show “ER,” and is a huge huge fan of the great English actress Vanessa Redgrave.

Katee Sackhoff: Lt. Kara Thrace a.k.a. “Starbuck”

Here’s the juicy bits on Starbuck, Katee Sackhoff’s tattoo. She’s got a tattoo of the word choice spelled in Japanese characters. She’s also got a nice crucifix tattooed to her shoulder with some inscriptions in Latin that read: public property. Those tattoos just add up to her hotness. She also does yoga and runs for around ten miles every weekend. That’s probably why she’s super toned. Her Battlestar Galactica casts mate Tricia Helfer is her real life best friend. Katee is s big Star Trek fan.

Jamie Bamber: Captain Lee Adama a.k.a “Apollo”

Jamie, or Bambini as his friends call him, is a married man with three kids. He’s got some Irish blood in him from his mother and was raised in a family of seven brothers and sisters. The man plays a variety of sports, from swanky golf to rough rugby. He also dances, loves horseback-riding, skiing, and rap-music. He studied literature of the French and the Italian. The Bambino also graduated from Cambridge with a First Class Masters honors in Modern languages. That’s the highest award; the man’s a scholar as evidenced by his favorites: The Divine Comedy of Dante Alighieri and Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Someone once asked him about who would like to meet, he answered: Shakespeare, Garibaldi, Jesus Christ, and King Henry the fifth. He’s also one of the most sought after of the Battlestar Galactica casts by female fans.

About the Author:

‘IT’ is that quality possessed by some which draws all others with its magnetic force. With ‘IT’ you win all men if you are a woman – all women if you are a man. ‘IT’ can be a quality of the mind as well as a physical attraction.

That’s how English romance novelist Elinor Glyn defined the term “it-girl,” a phrase that entered the public imagination with the 1972 film It based on one of her novels and starring the original it-girl, Clara Bow.

Hollywood is perpetually on the hunt for this elusive quality, this blend of sexuality and innocence, of materialistic chutzpah and good valises, of swagger and sincerity that tend to sell tickets. As the Cameron Diazes, Drew Barrymores and Gwyneth Paltrows age out of group that includes Amy Adams, Michelle Williams, scarlet Johansson and Keira Knightlely, contenders to the crown that for years belonged to Jula Roberts, perhaps the last female movies star who everyone agrees actually guaranteed attendance in the theaters.

At the moment much of Hollywood is chattering about pretty Anne Hathaway, another dark-eyed, dark-haired beauty, who was plucked out of relative obscurity by Roberts’ own star-maker, Pretty Woman director Garry Marshall. Disney was explicitly looking for the next Audrey Hepburn when Marshall cast this New Jersey-raised actress, with one short-lived TV series to her credit, as the lead in the 2001 hit franchise, The Princess Diaries.

Seven years later, the 26-year-old Hathaway has finally been transformed into the it-girl of the moment, with a string of commercial hits to her name, and heat fueled by her unexpected but thoroughly wrenching performance as an addict on furlough from rehab for her sister’s wedding in Rachel Getting Married. Already, Hathaway is getting Oscar buzz.

And she’s getting the sympathy vote. Ironically enough, there’s often nothing that endears a star to her audience more than love’s travails ,a bad boyfriend or two.

Hathaway’s Italian boyfriend of four years, Raffaello Follieri, has recently been sentenced to prison for 54 months for fraud. The double whammy of on-screen and off-screen despair has curious despair has curiously combined to give Hathaway heft and maturity, making her more than just another pretty face.

Hathaway also has deftly managed the media circus Although it-girls inevitably magnetize attention, it’s not every starlet who’s forced to explain herself to such august pop culture pashas as David Letterman, who recently grilled Hathaway about her personal life.

Dressed demurely in black, Hathaway tried joking, “As far as relationships crashing and burning, I did pretty great. Scorch that earth.” But being Letterman, he wouldn’t desist, asking her questions such as, “Was there ever stuff missing out of your purse?” She mostly laughed, except for when she hid her face in her hands, literally trying to shield herself from his comic barrage.

Vanity Fair offered up a pretty good vivisection of her jet-set love affair with Follieri, and it “made her more interesting,” notes one top talent agent. “There is something about the poor girl, the ones that can never find the right love interest. It’s part of the type, if you look back through history.”

Indeed, although film historian Janine Basinger recoils at the thought that audiences enjoy seeing their cinematic icons suffer, she does note that a little glimpse of real vulnerability can burnish a star’s allure. “There is some thinking that it makes all the women identify with her.

Raise your hand if you’ve ever had a bad boyfriend. One the appeals for a female star is sense of vulnerability or being human, of not being greater than the rest of us, of not being detached from us because they’re more beautiful or have better clothes. Historically, we like women stars like June Allyson who seem human.

“Our stars don’t have to be perfect. They just have t be imperfect in a way we can tolerate, and that’s unpredictable and related to how we see them on-screen.”

Of course, Hollywood also appreciates Hathaway’s growing box-of-fice clout. Insiders per her price per movie between $5 milllion and $10 million, and Hathaway’s seeming imperfections dovetail nicely with what has become her commercial niche, the girl-power comedy. Streep (or Miley Cyrus or any of the tween stars) — have risen to glory with a devoted female fan base.

For yound women, the greater fantasy is not finding a man but finding yourself, becoming the person you were destined to be. (That’s the real theme of Titanic, perhaps the biggest chick flick of all time.)

Fox 2000 chief Elizabeth Gabler. Recalls Hathaway pitching herself for the The Devil Wears Parada, which, at that very early stage in the game, didn’t hve Streep attached to play the viperous fashion magazine editor.

She was absolutely committed to getting the role. She gave us script notes on the third act, sys Gabler. “Annie was feeling that her character would walk away (from her assistant’s life). She is in Paris, and has a changed perspective on life.” The studio wound up using a version of this idea in the film, and ultimately cast Hathaway in the part.

More comedies are coming down the pike starring Hathaway, including Bride Wars, a female version of the burgeoning bromance genre, about best friends (Hathaway and Kate Hudson) who inadvertently turn into battling bridezillas; The Fiance, about a woman who want to dump her fiancé much to her parents’ chagrin; and a sports comedy in the vien of Broadcast News featuring Hathaway as an aspiring and definitively spunky sportscaster.

As one studio executive noted, Hathaway is practically the only twenty something woman whom a studio would comfortably stake a romantic comedy on – and she’s still about half the price of a more established actress like Reese Witherspoon.

As a movie buff, especially a fan of action, the beginning of May is an exciting time: All of the summer blockbusters hit the multiplexes. I simply enjoy the movie going experience so much that I even drive a long distance, sometimes up to 45 miles, to go to a movie theatre where I will get the optimal sound and picture for the movie I want to see. Now, living in the Los Angeles community, it’s not very hard to find a theatre nearby, but everything has to be perfect for this time of year for me. There’s only one problem: The movies themselves!

It seems as though Hollywood has forgotten the old phrase “quality over quantity.” Producers and movie companies believe that the more they spend on a movie, the better it will be. One of my favorite action movies of all time is El Mariachi, and that cost what, maybe about $5 and a bag of peanuts to make?? Yes, I love the technology and CGI that is being used in some movies today, but that doesn’t cut it. Hello!? Speilberg!? You wait 19 years for a new Indiana Jones movie and this is what you give us? Can I put in my vote? No need for Indie 5!

Look, it’s not that I’m upset at these companies and just start putting in negative reviews as a result of my overall disappointment. On the contrary, I happen to have loved a few movies I have seen recently, like Wall-E and Kung Fu Panda. But do you see my point? Disney / Pixar / Dreamworks - they all know what the viewers want still with animation, but live action movies? We’ll be lucky to get anything that’s one notch above The Incredible Hulk, Hancock, Zohan, Meet Dave (wow!), The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian…should I go on (Iron Man has been the only exception this summer)?

In order to fill the horrible void I feel inside due to the unusually high amount of catastrophic movies being made this century, I go to 104inc.com. Since 104inc has over 2,000 websites, I can automatically just type in 104movie.com or 104flicks.com, or even, 104entertainment.com, just in case I want to find out about Angelina Jolie’s twins (hey, “we all go a little mad sometimes”). 104Inc provides a service, and that service is information. In any 104Inc website, I get my “fix” from movie articles, entertainment news, and am even able to attain company profiles and information for some of these movie studios. Maybe I should just pick up the phone and call them, let them know Hollywood seems to have lost some of its shine and glamour. Oh well…all I can say is, “Batman… Hollywood needs you!”

This is not the end of the story, this controversial lady also tried to commit suicide in the front of Amitabh Bachchan’s bungalow “Preteeksha” on the very day of Abhishek Bachchan marriage.
