Chaske Spencer to Star Opposite Gil Birmingham in ‘Shouting Secrets’
Posted by Kimmy • 3 Comments »



Twilight actor Gil Birmingham has been cast opposite fellow Twilight cast member Chaske Spencer and General Hospital’s Tyler Christopher in the Korinna Sehringer film “Shouting Secrets.”

Gil will play Cal, the father of Wesley (played by Chaske Spencer). Wesley is a successful young writer in Los Angeles who is called back to his Native American upbringing after ten years in order to visit his sick mother. Tyler will play Tushka, a half-breed Indian who, when his mother falls ill, is forced to look at his failure to breach the confines of reservation life.

Gil has appeared in a number of films with fellow actor and friend Chaske Spencer, and playing Chaske’s father is nothing new. In “Skins,” Gil played the role of Sonny Yellow Lodge, the abusive alcoholic father of Rudy, played by Chaske.

Edi, Justin, and Gil Talk Twilight & New Moon
Posted by Nim • 4 Comments »

Twilight Examiner  has a great transcript from the Twilife show in Orlando this weekend.

Q: In the books, some of the character ethnicity was a little bit undefined, so how has it been to approach portraying these characters with a diverse cast?

Justin: … the obvious one is ‘I didn’t know Eric was Asian.’

Edi: Do they say ‘I didn’t know he was Asian’ or do they say ‘he’s not Asian?’

Justin: ‘I didn’t know he was Asian’ or ‘When did Yorkie become an Asian last name?’ But I think those both are good things to worry about. You know? … being Asian, that’s cool too because it brings awareness that we need a cast that’s more diverse. And so I think it’s a good thing that people are talking about it.

Q: Okay, so favorite scene in New Moon?

Edi: The meadow scene …

Justin: The meadow scene … [laughs]

Gil: The meadow scene …

Edi: Yeah! Bring Laurent back!

Posted by Nim • 5 Comments »

Shant from OMGCelebrityNews.com attended the 2009 Vision Awards, and he has provided us with an exclusive interview with Gil Birmingham, along with pics and a video. xD

Gil Birmingham attended the 2009 Vision Awards at the Beverly Hills Wilshire Hotel on Saturday evening (June 27th).

And we are very proud to announce that OCN also attended the award show and had the chance to interview Gil Birmingham!

With the tons, and tons of e-mailed questions sent in we had to pick a good question that we’re sure everyone would be dieing to know, and one question only because press was very tight!

OMGCelebrityNews.com: If you could choose would you rather be a werewolf or a vampire?

Gil Birmingham: Ohh.. You gotta go with the werewolf’s! Don’t you think?

OCN.com: Why would you pick that?

Gil: Because they’re hot, you know who wants to be cold? Were right under the 108 degree temperature, don’t women love that?

OCN.com: I guess so, (laughs).

Gil: *Giggles*

But hey I guess some women do prefer their men to be 108 degrees!

To see all the pics and read more, go HERE to their site.

More interviews from this event soon to come! :]
** Thanks Shant! **
